Something About These AristOcrats
of the Bivalve Family.
A newborn oyster is a tiny fleck of
creamy substance, not much larger
than the point of a pin. Its advent in
countless numbers from the middle Of
July to the middle of August is to the
Oysterman of Connecticut where are
located probably the largest seed oyster
plants in the world, an event of the
utmost interest. Long Island sound
has some popularity of thewater which
renders it especially favorable for the
raising of the choicest and most widely
sought oysters. Not only are here To-
Gated thousands of oyster plantations,
but also immense natural oyster beds.
And here and there only is raised the
famous Blue Point oyster, the most
.delicately favored of it's kind and in de-
mand the world over.
The Great South bay, ON the outside
of Long Island. facing the ocean and
extending distance of so miles from
the towns of South Bay and Speonk, is
the headquarters of the entire produc-
tion of the genuine Blue Point oysters.

called Blue point.
A combination of percentage of salt
in the water, temperature, depth, con-
dition of bottom, together with some
indefinable quality possessed by the
latter which is different from any
other, gives to them their flavor, which
has never yet been equaled by any Of
the various kinds of oysters raised in
America, and the oyster industry is by
far the most important fishing industry
in the United States. The Blue Points
are simply transplanted NOrwalk and
Bridgeport seed oysters, which are TAX
en- from oyster beds and put into the
Blue Point beds in Great South bay,
where they attain maturity under the
most exalted and potent conditions
which graduate them oyster aristocrats

sought for as "Divine Points" in every

Effective Remedy.

A good story is told of one of the
chiefs of the civil service department
who had two afflictions-an obliging
and easy dOorkeeper and a pertina-
cious office seeker. who was a distant
relative of the chief. Scarcely week
passed but the latter called, and the
former was much too polite to shut
him out.
The chief at last, after one of the
usual interviews. resolved to stand the
nuisance no longer. so, summoning the
.doorkeeper when the visitor had de-
parted. he said. 'X., do you know
what that man comes after|
''No, sir" replied the functionary.
'Well, then, | may as well tell you
He wants your place"

HOT SLASH.
A Delicacy That Is Priced by New
Orleans Negroes

NcBroess
did you ever hear of an edible
known as hot slash?" asked a citizen
who always keeps an eye open for
life's little oddities. mo? Well, I'm
not surprised. l discovered it myself
only yesterday through a chance visit
to the river front 1t was about IL
o'clock in the morning, and / was loaf
Ing around the far end of the North
eastern fruit wharf waiting for man,
when strapping big negro rushed up
and bawled out: Hot slash! Hot
slashp
Il supposed he was addressing him
self to me, but before l could think up
some graceful and appropriate bit of
repartee at least a dozen other strap
ping darkies came tumbling out from
behind a pile of barrels, where a crap
game had evidently been in progress,
and started on a dead run for a nearby
alleyway.
None of them had asked any ques-
tions. and, needless to say, my curios-
ity was highly excited, so 1 trailed
along in the rear and at the other end
of the alley found the whole crowd
with numerous additions, clustered
about a small covered wagon from
which mulattO was selling smoking
hot loaves of bread at a nickel apiece
AS each loaf was called for he split II
open and saturated the interior with
molasses from a can in the vehicle
That was hot slash. 1t seemed to be
local substitute for the merchants
lunch, which appears about the same
hour in the retail district up town.
81 asked one of the darkies whether
it was good, and his reply, while word
less, was extremely eloquent. The
lower half of his countenance was
buried in a fresh section of hot slasl
at the moment, and nothing was visi
BILE except his eyes, which he rOllet
upward until they resembled a coupl
of white celluloid pool balls. Then HI
closed them, very slowly, like a mai
in an ecstasy. and at the same tim
made a gurgling sound in his throat
After that pantomime l was strongl,
tempted to try a piece of hot slasl
myself."-New Orleans Times-DemC

A Wonderful Escape.

The greatest height from which any
one has accidentally fallen without re-
ceiving any injury beyond a shaking
was nearly 1000 feet by an East In
dian living in the island Of Oghin, who
fell over a cliff at that height. His fall
was broken at the foot of the precipice
by masses Of dense vegetation, and he
escaped with no more serious injury
than a severe shaking. The authen-
ticity of this fall was vouched for by
the French writer, II. de Parville.

Attending to Scientific Pursuits.

Attending to Scientific Pursuits
 In explaining his abstrention from political matters this year, Judge W. Fl. Barnes of Tucson, talked to Phoenix reporter as follows. "l have been engaged" said Judge Barnes, "ln a scientific and philan- thropic experiment which, l am glad to say, has been successful. You know physicians have lately agreed that malaria and many other diseases in tropical or semi-tropical countries result from the bite or sting of the mosquito, which is really an injection of poison. That poison produces ague, malarial trObles. and perhaps the bubonic plague. It occurred to me that this poison might be neutrallzed. So got a collection of rattlers, cobra de capellos, coralitos and other poison ous reptiles, the secretion of whose glands is an acid of deadly poison. l then got a lot of guinea pigs a9d caused them to be bitten by the snakes. then shaved the pigs and exposed them to the mosquitoes, which bit them. The poison of the snakes passed through the system or the guinea pigs, formed an antitoxin, which destroyed the poisonous effect of the mosquito, but without in any way injuring the insect. l am now experimenting with Belgian hares in- stead of guinea pigs, because they are cheaper and easier to get. Anybody can own an inoculated Belgian hare and carry it around with him for the mosquitos to bite. Snakes, you see, are not without their uses. These experiments have kept me so busy that have no time to fool away in politics and have no idea what is going on. suppose they are going to send delegates to Kansas City to nominate Mckinley. I'd rather work for the whole race and put down this curse of malaria than be president myself"
