Henderson that they were willing to

It has been announced that Col. Hep

construction OF the isthmian canal at

Col. Hepburn has been charged with be-

been his aim to. build a canal wholly free

old Clayton Bulwer. treaty. Hepburn
was an earnest advocate of an Ameri-

Small Onions Mistaken For EYES

"While / was in Mongolia" writes
Mr.. d. G. O'Connell, an American
railway supply contractor, 1.-The
Boxers captured some railway stores
used by the workmen while building
the road. They burned everything.
Among the lot were several barrels
marked SALT in which cartridges
had been stored to get them past
the Chinese customs officers. The
fire of course exploded these and
several Chinese were killed, but a
particularly daring Boxer jumped
on top of the heap of material and,
picking out a glass bottle, held it
up where all could see. The bot
tie contained little VIII te onions,

Carr and His Fence.

One of the sights of Modoc
county, CAL, is the stone wall four
feet high which nearly surrounds
Jesse d. Carr's estate of $4,000
acres. In order to protect his stock
Mr.. Carr built the fence at a cost
of something like 100000.
'Do you know what the United
States marshal said about it when
he was sent out here to investigate
at the time they were trying to force
me to pull it down during Cleve-
lands administration" he asked
a friend recently. "Well, he looked
it over carefully, and he said to me,
Carr, / don't know which is the
bigger fool-the government, for
wanting to pull down that fence, or
you, for putting it up That, !"
added Mr.. Carr, "was the most sem
sible thing | ever heard about that
fence-even if l did put it up"

ALUMINIUM.

Aluminium is at the present time
the cheapest metal in the market,
with the exception of iron, zine and
lead. The metal is now extensively
used in place of copper, brass, tin
and in some cases even iron, espe-
cially when the reduction of dead
weight is a questi y of great i'm
portance. Aluminiu.l is also begin
ming to be used very largely for elee-
trical conductors, as it gives nearly
the same conductance as copper,
weighs only half as much and costs
less.
The progress made in the use of
aluminium in the past few years
justifies the most sanguine expeeta-
tions. Twenty years ago the total
output in the world did not exceed
four or five tons and its price was
$4,000 per ton; ten years ago its
price was reduced to about $4,000
per ton and the output increased
to about So tons per annum. Now
the price is $3.50 to 800 per ton,
and the output during the last II
months is reckoned at 5000 TONS

BEST AMBULANCE SERVICE.

In its ambulance system of giving
first aid to the wounded New York
is far in advance of any other place
in the world, and there is no city
outside of the United States where
the ambulance service has passed
much beyond its elementary stages,
writes Francis H. Nichols. The
New York system has been studied
by physicians and hospital authori-
ties all over the world, and such as
exist elsewhere are vely largely
copies of it.
In America the ambulance is now
in vogue in Boston, Philadelphia,
Chicago, st. Louis, Pittsburg and
New Orleans. In Europe the near
est approach to it is found in
Vienna, where 20 ambulances and
physicians are constantly at the
service of the Volunteer Humane
society, a voluntary organization
established after the catastrophe OF
the Ring theater in 1881. Vienna
ambulances are not attached to hos
pitfalls, as in New York, but are
maintained in buildings especially
erected for them on the same plan
as the American fire houses

Coronation Kisses.

'eThe sound of a kiss is not so
loud as that of cannon" remark
ed the professor at the breakfast
table, "but its echo lasts a deal
longer" Latterly it seems to last
before it begins.
Nearly year before his corona
ton King Edward announced that
the ceremony of kissing by the peers
would be omitted. Imagine me
compelling De~onshire to kiss me!'
he is said to have exclaimed. ''He
would never survive the ordeal"
William ", who objected to this
part of the ceremony, submitted to
it, but declared he would renounce
the kingship rather than repeat the
experience.

A Recipe For Fruit Balls and Other
. Useful information.


: To make fruit balls spread warm
boiled rice half inch thick on a
Toured board. Have ready fresh
peaches stoned and cut in halves.
Put the two halves of each together
and the rice in pieces just large
enough to wrap around each one and
press them into shape with the
hands, leaving the fruit we'll covered
in the center of every ball. Roll the
ball in -four and roll each in a cloth
that has been buttered and Toured.
Tie them carefully in shape and
boifin plenty of water for half an
hour, putting a tin in the bottom of
the kettle to lift them from the bot
tom. Remove from the cloths and
serve with a hot sweet sauce.
Lemo1S sauce is delicious with the
fruit balls. Cream together one
teaspoonful of cornstarch, one ia
blespoonful of butter, one egg and
one-half cupful of sugar. Pour
over them, stirring constantly, two
cupfuls of boiling water and cook
until thick. Remove from the
stove and add the juice and rini of
one lemon. Serve in boat.

Women Hermits In Russia.

Among the villagers on the Volga
in the province of Samara a curious
sect of women has made its appear
ance. 1t was originated by an elder
ly peasant woman in Soznova, call
ed the BLESSED Mother" These
women have fled from the villages
around into remote district, where
they live singly in holes dug out of
TIE face of the hill. They lead
life of fasting and PRAYER, and be-
leve themselves called from the
world, which they think is shortly
about to perish in general con-
flagration. The blessed Mother"
has S'ten wise virgins" as a sort of
bodyguard, and the sect believes
that these II women are possessed
of miraculous powers. = London

One of the hardships of New
York correspondent who tried to
accompany the Russians during the
recent military activities in China
had to do with the convivial capaci-
ties of the cars officers, whose
guest he was. Vodka and sakuska
were their favorite tipples. These,
as everybody knows, are not "soft, 7"
and to drink Russian toast means
the rapid consumption of full
glass of strong alcoholic liquid.
Then the glasses are turned inward
and they must leave no moist spot
upon the tablecloth. One toast is
to be responded to with another,
when the same formality must be
again celebrated, and so on. "When
that great war between Russia and
some eastern power really comes"
the man declares, liability to speak
Russian will not be the qualification
looked for by editors when search
ing for correspondents"

A LITTLE NONSENSE.
How a Jersey Farmer Was Caught by
Clothing Store Ad.


A farmland from New Jersey in
need of new suit of clothes came
to New York in search of bargain
and finally stopped in front of a
clothing store in Baxter street
which displayed the following sign
in the window:
eff You Buy One Of Our S. Suits,
You'll Have Fit"
While reading this notice a
'puller in" succeeded in getting him
into the store. The Jerseyman
picked out a blue serge suit which
the salesman told him was worth
$25 and for which he paid So. The
first time the farmland wore his
new suit it rained very hard, and he
got a thorough drenehing. The
following Sunday when he tried to
get into the clothes he found that
the trousers had shrunk so that the
bottoms of them only came to the
tops Of his shoes and the coat
would not go on at ALL The color
had also changed from navy blue
to a dull red. Then he recalled the
wording of the sign in front of the
Baxter street clothing store:
eff You Buy One of Our So Suits,
You'll Have a Fit"
1t meant just what it had. said.

be of apy desired form to suit the
numerous uses for which the beaten

Parsley SUGGESTIONS.

To prepare parsley as seasoning
for winter soups and sauces dip
fresh punches of it into boiling
water and scald for few minutes.
Remove and quickly dry near the
fire.
The best method of preparing
parsley for soup and creamed pota-
toes is to twist it into round ball
and clip it into thin slices. Parsley
is considered an aid to digestion.
Many enjoy eating little sprigs
dipped in salt along with the dim
ner. Sprays of parsley garnishing
meats and salads certainly add to
the temptation of dinner.
1t is said that sprigs of parsley
eaten with little salt will drive
away the odor of onions on the
breath.

An Ancient Arena.

The Paris Messenger says that an
attempt to resuscitate the old Ro-
man amphitheater near the Jardin
DIES Plantes, Paris, is about to be
made. This ancient arena, which is
now used partly as a playground for
poor children and partly for omni-
bus stables, has remarkable his
tory. 1t is one of the largest known
Roman arenas and dates back to the
first century. There is evidence that
the Emperor Julian held sports
there.
