QUEEN AS A LIFE SAVER.
Plunges Into the Surf and Rescues
Her Disabled and Drowning
BOatman

A dispatch to the New York journal
and Advertiser from Lisbon says: The
queen of Portugal. at Cascals, fash
ionable seaside resort. made a thrill
ing rescue. She has been staying at
the royal palace of Cascals, and was on
the. beach watching Catalao Groom. her
boatman, bringing his boat in to shore.
Suddenly a huge wave overturned the
boat. Croom's arm was broken and he
was overcome by the undertow, which
carried him beneath the waves.
The queen is an expert and,
seeing that her boatman was drowning,
she sPrang into the sea in her clothing
before any of her attendants could pre-
vent her.
With rapid strokes she swan to the
boatman's side and held him up until
persons on the shore put out in boats
and rescued both the queen and her
boatman.
Groom was taken to the royal palace.

GERMAN SHIP INDUSTRY.
BADLY Cramped, 1t Is Said, by the
Lack OF Suitable Wharf,
age

Germany's great industry, that of
shipbuilding, is handicapped by the
lack OF wharfage facilities, according
to Consul Winter at Anaberg, who
says: During the last ten years
shipbui1ding in Germany has become
a great industry. Old wharves have
been torn away and new and larger
ones constructed in their place. The
present capacity of all the wharves
does not meet the demands of the
German merchant marine. MANY or
ders must still be placed in foreign
countries At present % ships are be-
ing built in England for Hamburg
alone. During the first half of the
present year the dock owners and
shipbuilders of Stettin. Kiel, Flens-
burg and Bremen have increased their
capital stock on the whole by S1,379.-
900. Many new enterprises are being
planned. In the neighborhood of Nor
denham, on the lower Vessel, large
Wharves are being projected. A wharf
for Stralsund is being planned which
will cost nearly S1,O0O,OOO. It is also
reported that a German-Belgian syn
dictate will build wharf in Antwerp
under the auspices of the Bremen
Vulcan works. The German merchant
marine now numbers 1909 steamers.

Dog. with Territorial rules.

All the streets in Constantinople are
divided up into. separate dog quarters.
which are inhabited by sets of dogs.
varying from perhaps ten or 20 in num-
Der. The frontiers of each quarter are
known only to the dogs themselves,
though one can get o know them by
noticing how far dog will follow one
when enticed by some food. Each sepa-
rate colony guards its colony with the.
utmost vigilance, and these same crea.
lures which seem so Indifferent to all
that goes on around them will a t once
jump up and bark at any strange dog
that encroaches. upon their territory,
and should the. intruder persist they
will set upon him and chase him out
again. One wonders how the demar-
cation Of these quarters was first ar
rived at

SUGAR MAKING.
Progress Which France Has Made in
the Growing of Reefs and Elk
tracting the Sugar

Jules Helot has written history
OF the beet sugar industry in France,
says Consul Covert at Lyons. The be-
ginning of the industry in France was
really under Napoleon l., in 1s10-12,
when he established five great schools
for study and instruction in sugar
chemistry" and four large imperial
sugar mills, exempt from all taxation.
There are now in France $40 sugar
factories, the average production of
which has increased threefold in IS
years.
These factories consume $4,000
pounds of beets every "a hours. The
average daily consumption of Ger
many is 100000 pounds. Since 1883 the
consumption of coal in the sugar mills
OF France has fallen from 442 pounds
to 2S6 pounds per ton of beets.

uct OF raw sugar by metric, tons for
the countries named:

WHITES TAKE INDIAN LANDS.
Agent Of the Five. Civilized Tribes
Sends Protest to WASH
fngtOn.%

United States Indian Agent Sheen
felt. in charge of the union agency,
whose jurisdiction comprises the five
civilized tribes, protests in his an
nual report against unlawful occupa-
ton of the Indian lands and urges
rigid congressional legislation to pro-
tect the Indian citizen against the
encroachment of aggressive and grasp
ing whites.
Many of the Indians are too poor
to institute suit for possession and
therefore are left helpless. The total
population of the five civilized tribes
is estimated at s4,750, comprising TO-
$50 Choctaws and freedmen. 10000
Chickasaws and freedmen, 10000
Creeks and freedmen, $4,000 Cherokees
and freedmen and 5000 Seminoles, and
their lands comprise total of 1875
2S6 acres. The agent says that there
is now every reason to believe that
the Indian depredations and disturb
ances in the five tribes region are at
an end. A few full-blooded Creeks
are strenuously opposing the allot-
ments of lands and have banded to-
gether and refuse to appear to select
their allotments. A large majority
Of the Greeks, however, have actually
made their selections.
The report recommends that con-
gress appropriate out of the Cherokee
funds a sufficient amount to pay the
indebtedness of the nation; that a law
be passed compelling the five tribes
to adopt uniform system Of taxing
noncitizens residing and doing bust
ness in the limits of their nation and
that Workhouse or reformatory be
established

Crooked Houses in HOLLAND.

There are many buildings in cities in
Holland which were originally and IN.
mistakably built out. of the straight.
For instance, not far from the Hotel
Vieux Doelen, where the delegates to
the peace conference stayed, there is
an extension being built to one of the
churches, and, although the walls are
not yet completed,H they lean outward
more than IL inches. Another instance
of this is found in some of the corner
houses, whose walls lean out over each
street. In many cases new houses are
evidently put up to match the houses
alongside. Strangely enough though.
there are comparatively few cases on
record of collapse.

LIK Els OUR w a RSHIPSI
Russia to Place Orders with Amer
lean Shipbuilders.
So Well Pleased with the varias, It
Il Said, That She VIII Place
Contracts for Five More
Fighting Vessels.

Russia is to place orders with Amer
lean shipbuild ers for five new battle
ships during the next year. Secrecy
seems to be the order with those in a
position to give information, but the
bare fact tina tin prosecuting her naval
construction programme RUSSIA will
favor American shipbuilders comes
from an authentic source, according to
Joseph Spencer Kennard, one of the
commissioners from this country to
the Paris exposition, who has arrived
at New York on the steamship Tour
aine.
Contracts for five batt1eships will
involve more than $20,00O.0OO and the
fact that Russia contemplates pacing
these orders here is regarded as a rec
ignition Of the merits of the American
built Variag, which, designed to make
speed of % knots, showed herself ca
pable in her speed trials of maintaining
speed of 24.6 knots. Now being
pushed to completion by the Cramps.
who built the Variag, is the battleship
RetVazan. the first battleship built here
Tor foreign country. She was
launched October 90. Beyond, the in
formation that the order was to be
placed here Mr.. Kennard said that he
could say nothing, and that he could
not with propriety make known the
name of his informant. :
Vladimir Teplow. the Russian con-
sui general, also returned on the Tour
alne, after an absence of four months
In Russia. He left ST. Petersburg Oc-
tober 20. When seen at his home Mr..
Teplow said he could not confirm the
report OF the prospective placing of or
ders for battleships in this country,
but he said that there was such enthu-
slasm in Russia over the Variag and
RetVizan that it is likely the next war
ships built for Russia will be laid in
American shipyards.
All Russians he said. s'are perfect
" satisfied with the Variag and the
Retvizan. They are fine ships. We
think American builders are among
the best in the world. Some builders
show sample ship and obtain an order
for one like it, but the, finished product
likely does not correspond with the
sample. But this is not so with Amer
lean builders. They make US ship Just

10Th YACHTS DESIGNED.


SIR Thomas Upton is comforting At
Glasgow with George 4. Watson, the
desi gner OF the new challenger for
the America cup says q London dis
patch to the New York Herald.
From authoritative sources it II
learned that Sir Thomas visit was
for the purpose OF 81 lggning contracts
for the building of the yacht. These
B have been placed with the Hender-
sons, Meadowside yard. the builders
OF the Thistle. the three valkyries,
the Britannia, the Meteor and the
fSybarita.
. The date specified in the contracts
for the handing over Of the vessel is
March 80.
The greatest precautions are being
taken to preserve secrecy regarding
the design. A footpath along the
banks of the Clyde, which skirts the
Hf1endersons' yards, is already closed.
" IS now almost certainty that
the new defender will be plated with
bronze, says a New York Journal and
Advertiser dispatch from Providence.
1t is known that the Herreshoffs are
partial part to this metal. They have ex-
perim1ented with various etals for
tensile t'1ls and torsionalS strength, and
none has been found so satisfactory
to Capt. Mats mind as smooth
bronze. which successfully resists cor
rosion and presents the minimum Of
friction with the maximum of light
ness and durability.
Capt. Nat, it is understood, has COM
pleted his model of the defender and
reduced many Of his plans to writing.
The work of construction, it is ru-
mored, will probably be started with
in few weeks.
