The statistics at hand do not separate
the capital investor in the breweries of
Great Britain from that invested in the
olStlIIerles, the total for the two trades
being in American money, $1,000, OG0 900,
but there are plenty of figures to
show that the beer habit is productive
OF great deal of revenue to the treas
ury. The excise duties on beer bring in
at least SIS, OO0, 900 a year, aside from the
great sums paid for licenses by the public
housekeepers and other retailers who sell
it.
a retailer of beer and no other intoxi-
cants pays the government from % shil-
Hngs to &c shillings a year for the IL
cense, While a public housekeeper who
can sell all sorts of intoxicants pays
from ga los, to $50. A brewing license,
on the other hand, costs but Ell at the
outside, and they do come as low as 4
sh1llings if you want little one. There
was once a happy time In England when
there was no duty on beer. and in those
days there got to be as many as 1900
brewers in the land but the introduction
OF the beer tax-for the price of the
license could have made no such change
cut down this vast army Of beer-mak-
ers tremendously. In 1899 the number OF
brewers was 6,739, nearly $500 of whom
were in a small way of business and did
not brew as much as 1000 barrels of
beer apiece. OF what may be called the
magnates of the trade there are but eight,
each of which firm brews over loco, 600
barrels year, and there are close upon
twenty who brew over half a million each
and so are probably pretty eligible for
peerages, to which proud rank a largo
proportion of the million-barrel magnates
have attained.

long ago one was turned over on the

weight of those caught along the
coast is about 500 pounds. After they
are caught the turtles are kept for q

The study of this monster shellfsh
Is n most interesting one. In order to
get rid Of the parasites that cling to
their shells they often enter fresh
water streams to enjoy bath, but
they are extremely timid, and take
fright ut the least noise. The hunter
knows, however, that the turtle feeds
in brackish streams, where the tide
falls rather low and where the turtle
grass grows In greatest profuson.
The turtles cut great quantities OF
this grass and then roll II into ball,

rights with the citizens OF all the

required are no more than are abso-

INTERESTING EXPERIMENT.
The United states Steel Corporation
to Erect u Rcfriperatihg RANT
M tho Lucy Furnaces.

Pittsburgh, Pa, May 3O.-Prepara'
tons are being made by the United
States Steel corporation for the cree
ton Of u refrlgcrating plant at the
Lucy furnaces of the Carnegie Co.
which will probably figure largely IN
revolutionary reductions In the cost
Of making pig iron.
The plant, while nm experimental
one, will be built on u commercial
basis and win cost in the ncighbor'
hood OF 100000, The idea Is to de-
priyc the air of u large percentage OF
lis moisture by prccipltating and
freezing the water before the blast Ia
sent into the furnace. Blast furnace
owners have found that In winter
when the air Is cold, dry and crisp
they can make pig iron more cheaply
filed with moisture,
The experiment will be watched
with interest by oil blast furnace
men.
