CONSUMPTION OF ALMONDS.
Twenty-one Million Pounds Eaten in the United states Each Year

There are, roughly speaking, 21.000.- 900 pounds of almonds consumed in the United States each year, some eaten with raisins, some used in the manu- facture of candy, some ground for cream and favoring extracts, and some, of an inferior quality, used for perfumery and soap. The state of Cal- ifornia produces about 14,000,000 pounds of almonds in year, or two thirds of the amount required for do mestic consumption, and the other al monds are imported from European countries, from which, until few years ago, all the almonds were sent. The figures of almond importations for the fiscal year 1898 show impor tations of about 7,O00,0O0 pounds. Of this amount 4,500,000 came from Spain, 1,500,000 from Italy, chiefly Sicily, and the balance from Greece and Portugal. Cocoanuts to the value of about S600,- GOO year are imported into the Unitr.d States from foreign countries 0r from countries which were under foreign jurisdiction at the time of the last an nual treasury report. Before the be- ginning of the Cuban war for inde- pendenee the importation of cocoanuts from Cuba into the United States was to the value of about S200,000 year. With the beginning of the war it de- clined, and under the present tariff the duty on coeoanuts further reduced the importation from Cuba, though large increase in the shipments of eocoanuts Is expected this year under American jurisdiction in Cuba and Porto Rico. The competition of American with for eign coeoanuts, the latter from the West Indies and South American states, has been more active than in the case of almonds, for the reason that the chief source of supply of American eocoanuts is Florida, which is in closer proximity to the New York market The annual report of Florida eocoanuts amounts to about 7,000, ,000 pounds, of the value of about $500, ,000 year, and the conditions as to al- monds and cocoanGts are in this par ticular reversed. California produces just twice as many almonds as are inn ported into the United States. whereas Florida produces just one-half as many eocoanuts as are mported.-Boston Transcript.

LAKE IN AFRICAN MOUNTAIN.
Explorer Circumnavigates the Entire
 Sheet of Water.

Sheet of Water.
 At meeting of the Royal Geograph- ical society in London an interesting report by Poulett Weatherley on Lake Bangweulu, in central Africa, was read. The explorer circumnavigated the entire sheet of water. His party reached the lake in August, 1896, and established camp at the southeast ern corner, 3,765 feet above sea level. The shores of the lake are absolutely free from shells and the water has no depth. He sounded in many places, put never found more than fifteen feet. It's surface was usually still, very strong wind raising the smallest sea. IL appears to be nothing but a flooded district. Mr. Weatherley thinks it was formed by the water from the great watershed of the Tanganyika plateau. The overflow is checked to the west and southwest by a rim of rock, but the east and southeast has no such barrier, and in that direction there is a vast swamp from twenty to forty miles in breadth. The Liposochi and
 
 - s-.a cast are the chief contributors to the water supply. With twenty-five men he explored the island of M'ba- Wala, about twenty miles long and 1000 yards from the shore, and pro ceeded toward the outlet of the Luca. pula, ultimately landing at kfrui isl- and. After stay of some time on the Island, which they found low, beauti- fully wooded, well peopled and culti- Vated, they passed on to Kisi island. This they found not a bit like the island depicted on the maps. It pre- sented most peaceful, prosperous sight, and in common with the other two islands, Kirui and Mbawala. it reared a good number of sheep-the broad-tailed kfnd-and goats. The people appeared to live life of com- plete peace and eontentment. Proceed ing in northerly direction, the party reached the extreme north-northwest corner of the lake, Continuing their journey along the coast, they discov- cred narrow peninsula stretching north and south, having on the west sheet of water about three miles in width. which extends the whole length of Bangweulu north and south, but is always separated from the lake by the isthmus. There was cotton every where, but not in large quantity, and the bark-cloth tree abounded.-New York Post.

GANG-NEEDLE MACHINES.
One of the Many Varieties of Sewing
 Machines Made Nowadays.

It is more or less familiar fact that sewing machines are used nowadays for sewing many different materials, as leather, paper, canvas, carpets, rub Der. They are used for making but tonholes and sewing on buttons. They are made of many types and in simply hundreds of varieties for special uses. ly that there are many sewing ma- chimes now made with more than one needle. The first of these, two- needle machine, was made in the early eighties, about fifteen years ago. It was used by manufacturers of heavy clothing, perhaps first of all by the overall manufacturers, making seams stronger by putting in two rows of stitching. The utility and economy of the two-needle machine soon became apparent and it came into widespread and diversified use. Whenever two rows Of stitching were to be made, a tWo-needle machine was used. A fa- miiiar illustration of the work is seen in the two parallel lines of stitching running with perfect exactness around the top of a shoe vamp. Shirt sleeves are stitched into the body of the shirt on double needle machine, the two rows being made in the same time that It would take to make one. Collars and cuffs were stitched on two-needle machines, as were a great variety Of these things, and later there were pro- dueed machines with more than two needles, the first of these coming into use within five or six years. There are now made sewing machines with as many as twelve needles A twelve needle sewing machine simply has twelve needles where the ordinary sewing machine would have one. In stead of single spool of thread on the top Of the machine there appears there a rack of twelve spools. There are twelve tension disks. The thread from each spool runs through it's own ten sion disk to it's own needle. There are below twelve shuttles, one for each needle. When this machine is oper- ated, it makes twelve rows of stitch ing, just as an ordinary machine would make one. The twelve-needle machines are used chiefly in the manufacture of eorsets.

GET THEIR TIPS FROM CROOKS
Bank onHcials Take Means to Protect
 Their Treasure from Thieves.

Their Treasure from Thieves.
 It is said by a police official at city hall headquarters that some of the city banks, whose hoard of surplus cash has been increasing largely of late. have been experimenting with an ex- pedient long in use by the Bank or England officials of paying known crooks for information of any contem" plated raid upon their vaults. The Bank of England's first experiment or this kind dates from 1S50 when the directors of the bank listened to startling proposition made by "dlteh digger" The laborer told the directors that he had discovered new and un- suspected method of getting into the cellar vaults, where the gold and sil- yer bars were kept, and that he would sell his secret to them for money. The directors hesftated, believing that they had taken every precaution against loss from the vaults in putting up heavy masonry, with plenty of iron bars, and by manning the building with armed watchmen. But finally they granted the man, who seemed to talk fairly, chance to try his plan, and night was named for the undertaking At the appointed time a committee Of the directors descended to the cellar and heard a peculiar scratching sound under their feet Two hours later the floor opened and the ditch digger bobbed up sereneiy. like the evil spir- its in the spectacular drama All around them lay bars of precious metal, totaling in value 93,000,000. The man explained satisfactorily how 1t was done and as a reward the direc- tors assured him an income from life on an investment of $10,000. The crook was content and it is believed he remained honest ever afterward. But other cracksmen were tempted by his luck to try the same game and the directors were inundated with sugges- tions and tips on new methods of bur- glary and how to prevent them. Among other things, they paid $20.000 for a process, invented by young chemist, for copying the ink, paper. water marks and designs of the bank notes so perfectly as to defy detection. The directors found they could use his sys- tenn more satisfactorily and more proftably than their own in the pro- duction of their currency. Despite the fact that these expenditures have run up into big figures in the last half century the directors of today say that all the money was well invested.

 NOT BY DEPUTY.
Queen Victoria Is Said to Be Her Own
 Housekeeper.


 Housekeeper.
 l am 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- t1ons from the clerk Of the kitchen is placed before her, from which in her own hand she orders the menus of the uay, 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 viands 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 800 pounds per annum, and has as satellites four mas ter cooks, two roasting cooks, six ap- prentices and six kitchen maids besides pantry men and other lesser lights. In addition to the great kitchen at Wind sor 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. All 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 su- pervision, no materials being served out without proper requisition signed by the head of the department con eerned. Not a 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 waste, extravaganza and the abomina- ble. perquisite system, and moreover it enables her majesty to exercise that wise control over her finances which ena ,les her to keep the grandest es- tablishment on relatively the smallest royal income in Europe.

MORE ENGLISH IRON.
Timely Discovery at Kent in the Dover
 CoaIfiela.

AA1A1SAJ oASNORCA9 h0A1 in Ln0 hVtGE
 CoaIfieId.
 When the coal boring was put down at Dover about six or eight years ago, by MT. F. Brady, on the site of the old Channel tunnel works, there were indi- scations in the cores of the presence of iron ore in the strata between 500 and 600 feet from the surface. The indica- tions have now proved correct, says the London Chronicle. In the course of sinking the No. 2 shaft bed of valu- able oolitic iron ore has just been struck at 8 depth of rather less than eco feet. The seam proves to be no less than twelve feet thick and probably ex- tends over a great area, the quantity being practically unlimited. The diam eter of the shaft is twenty feet and the quantity brought to the surface in passing through the twelve feet amounted to about $50 tons. Samples Of the ore have been submitted to anal~ ysis, with highly satisfactory results, a washed sample of the ore yielding 45.8 per cent of iron. On visiting the col fiery works today inspected a consid- efable bulk of the ore and the mana ger informed me that washed sample tested at the works yielded between 50 and 60 per cent oz iron. The analysis shows that the ore is free from sul- phur and phosphorus. The ore is stat ed to be of much richer quality than the Wealden ironstone, worked in Kent and Sussex century ago. Prof. Boyd Dawkins, in paper read before the British association in 1894, described a sample obtained from the original boring. From this it appears that this bed of iron ore is identical with that described by Blake and Hudleston at Abbotsbury, in Dorset, where it occurs between the Kimmeridge clay above and the Corallian rocks below. It is also practically identical with the val uable iron ore worked for many years in Westbury, Wiltshire. The ironstone presents very singular physical char acteristics It is composed of dark brown. shining grains of hydrated OK, ide of iron, like millet seed, imbedded in crystalline base, partly of cal- cium aud partly of iron carbonate
