A NARROW ESCAPE.

Carl Jensen, SWede, aged twenty eight, is congratulating himself on be- ing alive this morning, but it is not his fault. Jensen selected Savin Rock as the place in which to hilariously cele- brate Labor day About 5 o'clock he se- cured roWboat and invited two of his lady friends to go rowing.
 Vexed at their refusal he started off from Miller's Casino pier and with diff ficulty pulled against a heavy tide to about 200 yards off shore. He did not notice that he was directly in the path of the Sadie, a two nlasted sharple, and in moment his craft was capsized by collision with the saiboat. Henry L.. Bostwick, the sole occupant of the Sai- dee came about in short order and with the assistance of Leon Barrett, who was in bathing pulled Jensar, who was limp and dazed, into the sharpie They got him to Millei's pier where he was re- vived after some labor. Dripping with water he was found by his female friends, who happened because they had refused to go rowing, upbraided him. Friends of Jensen finally procured some dry clothes and brought him home.

THE CAMPH0R MONOPOLY.
FORNOSI'S ENTIRE PRODTCT JS
Government Protecting the Forests For the Last Four Years Formosn's Campbor Supply Has Aggregated Over 4.OOG, ,O0O Pounds.

James w. Davidson, our consular agent at Tamsin, sends to the state de- partment the following interesting re- port on the camphor monopoly in For mosa:
 Formosa now controls the eamphor product of the world The Japanese annual production has dwndled to three hundred thousand pounds; the Chinese yield has never exceeded two hundred and twenty thousand pounds; while the Formosan supply increasing yearly reached seven million pounds in 1895, and are yield for the last four years has ranged over six thousand pounds.
 To take full advantage of this favor able situation, the government has placed the manufacture under it's con- trol and made the sale of camphor a monopoly. The government appears to have two objects in view. First, in- creased revenue and, second, a more complete control over the camphor for estS. That both these praiseWorthy ob~ jects might have been attained by the establishment of some more liberal sys- tenn than monopoly Is quite probable; but the government has given the cam phor problem considerable thought and study during thy last four years and, claiming the Formosa forests as the property of the crown, the system of exclusive control of the sale of cam phor appears to the authorities the most satisfactory solution. The pro- duction of camphor being confined all most exclusively to Japan, no opposi- tion-at least for many yeqrs-is to be feared. As to the control of the cam phor forests, the need of some more etfi- ctent system of protection for the bor- der residents against the attacks of the savages and the necessity of some method of afforestation to prevent the total destruction of the camphor trees have long been apparent.
 To control the Savages. a line of armed guards fifteen hundred in num- Der, will be distributed along the border for distance of one hundred and forty miles and will endeavor to afford pro- lection both to camphor workers in the forest and to the occupants of the bor- der villages As regards afforestation, the government will lay out beds of young camphor trees in Tokoham (Tai-

The prices which will be asked for the drug abroad have been
 announced as follows: For |" A" grade camphor blocks in London, Hamburg and New York, 107S43 yen per pcul ($5392 per one hundred and thirty-thrae pounds), exclusive of import duties If any and in Hong Kong 102,3TS yen. For crude camphor, 99.102 yen ($4985) will be the price abroad. The government will receive from the selling agents eighty-five yen C42,50) a picul for the crude and ninety-fivc yen (S47bO for the "A' grade. It has been roughly estimated that the government expends in preparing it's "A" or semi-ref1ned, camphor, providing for thirty-five per cent. loss in weight and other expenses in connection with the monopoly. will average about twenty-five yen ($1250) picul; and though it is al present some what premature to state figures as 10 the probable resulting profit consider ing that the monopoly Is of so recent creation, the figures appearing in the government budget are doubtless, ap- proximate; though some slight changes have been made in the system of mono poly working since the budget was framed. In the budget the total expen- ses including cost of camphor are given as 2,167611 yen, or about thirty-four yen seventeen dollars) picul Gone hun dred and thirty-three pounds.) This is taking the probable production for the year at thrty-nine thousand piculs The income to the government from the camphor industry under the old system averaged about four hundred thousand yen (wo hundred thousand dollars) a year.

 Especial Correspondence of the Journal and Courier)
 Avila, Spain. July 19.--From Segovia
 to Salamanca, via Avila, is indeed "a long way around" but as no direct route takes in those three important cities, and we cannot afford to miss either of them, we are again compelled
 to test the old saw concerning "the sur est way home" By stage from Sego- via you reach the Central railway, which In its short journey through the mountains traverses forty-four tunnels in a distance of four thousand yards and seeing the weary, dust-begrimed passengers, you bless the lucky stars that led you in another direction. Avila de los Caballeros (of the Gen tlemen'), as goes the high-sounding ti- tie of this small city. is much frequent ed in summer by refugees from the heated capital. Lying about thirty three hundred feet above the sea, with in sight of the snow-capped Sierra, sur rounded by fertile plains from which narrow green valleys lead up into the foothills all plentifully watered by streams, it is an ideal resort at this time of the year. And to the other seasons, sedgy lakes and downs abounding with wild fowl in autumn, and in winter with game, including wolves from the neighboring Sierra.
 To the antiquarian the artist, the lover of the quaint and picturesque, Avila has not its equal in Spain, if in- deed in the world. The granite walls that encompass it, built in the eleventh century, are yet perfect. They are for ty feet high and twelve feet thick with eighty towers and ten enormous gate ways. Each gateway is formed by set ting two towers nearer together, carry ing them up higher and connecting them by an overhanging arch, curious ly carved with armorial bearings. Be- fore the use of siege artillery the city must have been impregnable, for every point of the hill upon which it stands commands the plain below, over which small gray b0ulders are scattered like fiocks of sheep. Spaniards assert that the original name was Abula bestowed in honor of his mother, by Hercules, who built the first city B. C. 166O Whoever may have been responsible for it's pre- historic foundation, the Avi- la of to-day was rebuilt about the year 10S0, by Don Romon, of Burgundy, son-in-law of Alonzo VI.
 In the modern city. of perhaps ten thousand inhabitants, there are several hotels and pensions-all tolerable, as Spanish hostelries go. The largest, called Dos de Mayo" (second of May), being kept by an Englishman, is gene rally patronized by the compara lively few Anglo-Saxons who find their way here. Every street and lane and corner
