NOT BY DEPUTY.
Queen Victoria Is Said co BE Her Own
Housekeeper.


Housekeeper.
afn sure very many OF my readers,
writes E. M. Jessop IN the August Pail
Mall Magazine, will be glad to hear
that notwithstanding the enormous
amount OF business with which she
has to deal. the queen is to large ex-
tent her own housekeeper. The first
thing every morning paper of sugges-
ttons from the clerk of the kitchen Is
placed before her, from which In her
own hand she orders the menus OF the
day, both for herself and such OF her
grandchildren as may be with her.
These menus are at once sent to the
kitchens, gardens and other depart
ments concerned, to obtain the Wanda
required, and their contents duly en-
tered, together with the quantities OF
materials used, In the books which are
kept in the royal kitchen. The queens
chef receives a salary oe 500 pounds per
annum, and has as satellites four mas
ter cooks, two roasting cooks, six APP
preDtices and six kitchen maids besides
pantry men and other lesser lights. In
addition to the great kitchen at Wind
SCR there are the greenroom for veget-
ables, and the confectionery and pas
try kitchen. This last Is most imnor-
tant department, controlled by con-
fectioner with six assistants and fitted
UP in the most complete manner. AL
her majesty's favorite cakes, biscuits.
pastry, etc., are made here and sent by
special messengers several times a
week to whichever of her residences
the court may be staying at. All
stores at Windsor are under proper SUI
peryisfon, no materials being served
out without proper requisition signed
by the head of the department con-
cerned. Not bag of dog biscuits can
even be ordered for the kennels unless
on the proper printed form. In fact
the whole vast establishment Is practi-
cally as methodically conducted as any
great London business. This method,
which was evolved by her majesty and
the late prince consort out of the chaos
which descended from the days OF
George ", entirely does away with
va ste, extravaganza and the abomina
bls perquisite system, and moreover Il
enables her majesty to exercise that
wise control over her finances which
ena les her to keep the grandest es,
tablis hment on relatively the smallest
royal income in Europe.

A Curious Rescue.

A. curious rescue was effected recent
~ In the County Wicklow. ireland.
Some time In April last an unfortunate
sheep became imprisoned on a part of
the rugged cliffs arising from the
banks Of the Upper Lake Glendalough,
and though many plans were proposed
TO get 1t down, no one was found will
ing to undertake the risk, when a gen.
tleman from South Africa volunteered
to rescue the poor animal After an
arduous and exciting climb, he man
aged to reach the spot, and, having at
tached a rope to the sheep. 1t was
lowered to the lake, where a boat was
ready to receive 1t. So hungry was
1--a poor brute that when dangling in
the air 1t tried to bite at the tufts OF
grass on the face of the cliff. II must
have died Of starvation In very few
days more, as every bit OF herbaga
within reach was nibbled TO the earth
Some idea OF the risk this reseuer ran
may be gathered from the fact that
this particular spot has always been
considered inaccessible, and that II
took the gentleman fully two hours
to make the ascent The lake Indef.

Female Students IN Germany.
In Germany the number of girl
graduates is increasing In remarka-
bic fashion. Three years ago the ten
great schools had on their books 1T
female students. At the end of 1897
the total had risen to SAT, and where
as in the previous year the girl stu
dents were mainly concentrated in
Berlin, every university except Mum
ster contributed to the roll of female
graduates. at the beginning of this
year the total mad again increased to
400 Philology and philosophy are the
favorite subjects of the girl graduates,

Joke on Lieut. Goy. Woodruff.

Last winter in Albany a magician
gave an entertainment Prominent
among those seated near the stage was
Timothy L. Woodruff, lieutenant gov
ernor of New York. In one of his
feats of legerdemain the magician re-
qulred the use of a pocket handker-
chief, and appealed to the audience to
supply the needed article Into his
pocket the lieutenant governor thrust
his hand, and when it came out again
it was clutching the handkerchief,
neatly folded and evidently fresh from
the laundry. Smilingly Timothy l..
as smilingly received it, while the au-
passed it up to the professor" who
dience, recognizing the leader, broke
into applause. The prestidigateur took
what Chuck" Connors would term
the wipe by one corner and shook
it out, and as he did so Woodruff's
face grew as long as it had previous
ly been round. That wretched hand
kerchief was as full of holes as one of
the legation compounds at Pekin. At
first the lieutenant governor swore
that substitution had been made, but

ering from wounds received in battle
near Manila In the letter was a frag-
ment of the missive sent by Miss
Kyle to the Columbus soldier. Geyer
states that the letter was taken from
the pocket of dead Filipino soldier
who had been killed by the Americans
Accompanying the letter was a small
American flag stained with blood. 1t
is presumed, that the soldier was eth
er captured or killed, and that the
Filipino. who was afterward killed,

woman's letter, which in turn was re-
covered by Geyer and sent by him to

The Resources OF Siberia.

Under government encouragement
it is said that Siberia is gaining 200,-
600 farmers per year. Among its ex-
ports are cereals, butter, WOOL leather,
and dried and preserved meats. AL
ready this remote country, which the
popular imagination is apt to picture
as vast waste, the abode of frost and
snow and misery, is becoming talked
of as a possible competitor with the
well known cereal producing countries
of the world. A member of the French
bureau Of foreign commerce estimates
that on the basis of the present popu-
lation in Europe, Siberia can sustain
8O,0O0,O 900 inhabitants, although now
it has not one-tenth of that number.
1t produces one-tenth of the worlds
yield of gold, but owing to climatic
obstacles many of its mines are not
worked, and its immense coal depos-
its have hardly been touched.

Advantages of Electric Traction.

Sir w. H. Preece says that one great
advantage of electric over steam trac-
tion on railroads is that it impresses
a continuous and uniform torque, or
turning, on the shaft, while the action
Of the steam locomotive is intermit-
tent. The consequence is that wheels
driven by an electric motor get a con-
tinuous bite" on the rails. as steam
driven rails do not. By means of this
constant grip, slipping on greasy rails
is avoided. 1t is also possible, with
electric traction, to apply the maxi
mum torque at once. and thus to bring
railroad train up to its greatest
speed much more quickly than is pos
sible with steam traction. This ad-
vantage is especially valuable on city
lines, where stoppages are frequent
and distances between stations short.
The Marble times and Crystal silver lance., 1900-11-23

in the picture seems to have these
advantages to recommend it. 1t has
been patented by one Theodore H. Nc
Cain of Washington, and is light
enough to be carried on the shoulder
of the man who operates it. AS will
be seen, the connection between the
stump and a sond tree or more firmly
set stump is made by means of ropes
and pulleys, with a chain connecting
one pulley to the winding drum. This
winding drum has external teeth
over which the links of the chain fit to
prevent slipping, affording a much
f1rmer hold than if the ropes were
wound directly around the drum. A
long lever is used to rotate the drum
and rachel device locks the drum
against backward revolution while a
new hold is being taken with the lev
er. By working the lever back and
forth the chain is gradually drawn
through the drums until the stump
roots give way.

Two Forms of Tin,

recent work in physical chemistry,
says Science. may be interested to
learn that many solid substances are
now known to have two or more forms
or phases. For instance. it has very
recently been ascertained that metallic
tin may exist. either as gray crys-
talline powder or in the well known
form under which 1t possesses both
lustre and duct,lity. At a particular
temperature both forms may co-exist;
above that temperature only the Or
dinary form is stable. and below that
temperature only the powdery form.

A SMOKE CONSUMER,

Powdered coal is the fuel Of the fu-
ture, according to the officials of the
Illinois Central railroad, who have
been experimenting for the last month
with device for making use OF coal
dust. Two boilers at the railroad
power house, Chicago, have been
equipped with the new invention, and
tests of efficiency and economy In the
use of coal will be continued for the
next thirty dayt. At the end of that
time the railroad men claim they Will
have demonstrated that coal when
ground fine enough is the best and
cheapest fuel available, as well as De-
ing absolutely smokeless.
The subject of coal-dust firing has
occupied the attention of engineers all
over the world for years. but the idea
has only recently been put into prac-
tical shape. For coal-dust firing the
coal must be ground to powder as
fine as wheat -four.
The appliances now in use at the
railroad power house are simple. A
large hopper above the door of the hre-
in bags-seventy pounds to the bag.
From this hopper the powdered coal is
Jared down by an automatic shaker
TO revolving brush with steel bristles.
At the same time currents OF air are
admitted at one side and the top OF the
brush. Revolving several hundred
times minute, this brush throws the
particles of coal into the firebox, where
they are instantly in state of COM
bustion. Dampers for the further ad-
mission of air are placed below the
brush
These appliances were placed on ex-
tha boilers, the only change necessary
being the construction of a front fac
ing of brick about two feet deep.
Tests were made yesterday after
noon. when the other four boilers In
the power house, which are hand-fired,
were shut off an1 the two boilers hav-
ing the new devices were used to oper-
ate the entire plant. Bags of dust
were poured into the hopper as re-
quired, and the fire got no other atten-
ton during the two hours test except
an occasional adjustment of the damp
ers and the feeders Illinois coal,
quoted at S1.40 per ton, was the fuel,
and the officials declared that, so far
as they could see, it was doing the
work as well as the better grades for
inerly used. The coal is dumped into

From private and trustworthy
sources, says the New York Indepen-
dent, we have received information
that there is growing feeling in
Venezuela toward annexation to the
United States, or protectorate by
the latter country. This Is apparent
" the result of the unstable political
conditions at home AID the loss of
financial credit abroad. For the past
five years the country has suffered Sc
we're losses, caused almost wholly by
civil strife, the fires of which are ever
smoldering when not in actual out
burst. Venezuela has, furthermore,
lost population through recent epi-
,demic, and the increasing danger of
OWL war has checked the tide of i'm
migration and produced widespread
poverty. Six months ago no one
would have thought of protectorate
by the United States for Venezuela,
but the Spanish-Americsn war has
freed Cuba and Porto Rico, which
have suffered under much the same
conditions that Venezuela is now sus-
fsring- g--namely, civil war or the dam
