Filipino Hats in rnrnr.

The coolest thing in the way of mas
euline headgear seen ia these parts
in many moons is the Filipino hat.
These hats are the most recent of the
imports from our new possessions.
The head is made of what closely re-
sembles the cane used in chair seats.
but is mucn lighter in weight. The
material is closely plated and the hat
looks like a cross between a chopping
bowl and Soudan helmet, without
the helmets front piece.
The hat is so constructed that the
headgear proper does not touch the
head at all. 1t is lined with a light
fabric, sea green in color, and to the
crown is attached a steel band Gov
cred with oiled silk, which band rests
upon the head and supports the hat.
The result is that the hat proper ex-
tends some inches beyond the fore
head and beyond the back of the head.
so that all the air there is stirring may
have full play at ones Uranium. AT
the back the hat tapers off like fire

HOW SHIPS DISAPPEAR.
An Explanation of why Some Vessels
Never Reach Port


A paper bearing the prosaic title OF
Undertaken Sailing Ships and Steam
ers," read recently before the Ship
masters Society by William Alling-
ham, contained enough material to
have supplied Clark Russell with
foundation for dozen sea romances
says the London Chronicle The pub
lie know of some of the risks incurred
by those who go down to the sea in
ships. But one not frequently heard of
by landsmen is that of undertaking
when in ballast" AS the author of the
paper observed. IF we could have
truthful accounts of the narrow mar
gin between safety and disappearance
experienced by the tramp steamers and
big sailing vessels in ballast during the
last few years, they would be more
thrilling than any yarns evolved
from the inner consciousness of the
nautical romancer." The danger of un-
loading, Mr.. Allingham pointed out,
was hardly less great than that of
overlooking. Yet sailing ships and
steamers proceed to sea daily with in
sufficient ballast, whereas an over
laden vessel would be prevented from
leaving port. There was an increas-
ing shipping casualty list due to under
loading. Some action, he said, would
have to be taken, and the question OF
insuring the safety of ships in ballast
by providing an under-load line in adj
dition to the present load line, might
well be considered. In the period from
1890 to 1900 no fewer than twenty-five
British ships disappeared while on
inter-ocean voyages. without leaving a
trace as to their fate.

Apropos of the revival of Patience"
at the London Savoy theater. it is in
teresting to recall that Windy Waly
o" was the melody concerning which
the late Sir Arthur Sullivan used to
declare he received the most charming
insult of his life. Some time after the
Savoy first opened, in 1881, he happen
ed to drop into the dress circle, and
while Mr.. harrington was singing it
the composer unconsciously whistled
the tune. Sir Arthur was then less
known by sight than he was lately. An
irate gentleman at once turned upon
him and told him to stop his noise"
i paid" he said. ito hear Sir Arthur
Sullivan's beautiful music and not
your confounded mumbling."

BOARD OF GREEN CLIO rH.~
A Special Tribunal for British Rsyu
Household and Court Omoers.


In England all the members OF the
royal household and the officials OF
the royal court, no matter what thei.
degree, are subject to a special tri-
bunal, known as the board of green
cloth, which has likewise exclusive
Jurisdiction in the case of all ofenses
committed within the precincts Of the
royal palaces and the gardens. grounds
and parks connected Herewith. The
board of green cloth. composed OF sew
eral high dignitaries of the household,
Is presided over by the lord steward
Of the household, who has the power
to delegate to any judge or magistrate
his authority to deal, in the name of
the board, with offenses that would
legally come before the latter. 1t is
as the representatives of the board Of
green cloth, and as our deputy OF the
lord steward, that the senior police
magistrate Of the metropolis holds
court in room underneath the grand
stand at Ascot during the Ascot race
meet each year. the Ascot racecourse
Windsor. Besides the board of green
cloth there is the House of Lords,
which is called upon to serve as a tri-
ounal in number of specific cases.
Strictly speaking. there are two sep
irate tribunals known as the Houses
If Lords. There is, for instance, the
tribunal to which cases may be carried
On appeal from the Supreme court,
and which is composed of what are
known as the law lords, that is to say,
Of peers who have occupied seats on
the bench, or who are still regular
members of the high court of judica-
ture. But no lay or spiritual peers
have anything to do with this tribunal,
which has jurisdiction only in the
United Kingdom, the judicial commit
tee or the privy council serving as
court of final appeal for the British
empire. -Ex-Attache in New York

How Mail Beat. pa,.eng.r..

The vast difference between the mail
service and the passenger is we'll illus
trated by the following fact: One of
the Pacific railroads hauls a combina-
ton train, mail and passenger, over
the mountains. When the level coun-
try is reached the mail cars are cut off
and sent on ahead. A passenger leav-
ing the coast may mail letter in one
of these cars on his own train. and by
the time he has reached Chicago he
will find that the letter has already
gone through the Chicago postofice.

Flowers for the Sick.

If one cares to bring flowers, the
best choice is carnations There is
something so clean and refreshing
about their spicy odor that is never
offensive in a sick-room. Under no
circumstances should any member of
the jasmine or lily family be intro
duced where there is illness. Violets,
jonquils, nasturtiums. chrysanthe-
NUNS, roses, are safe, both as to color
and perfume. 1t is impossible for one
unacquainted with the exactions of an
invalid to realize the mischief that
may accrue from an imprudent selec-
tion.-New York LEDGER Monthly.

FAMOUS LOST SECRETS.
sar&csz Sword Blades Can Not BE
Duplicated at Present Time.

Duplicated at Present Time.
Sheffield turns out the finest. hard
est and most perfect steel the world
produces, but even Sheffield can not
produce a sword blade to compare with
those the Sarcens made and used
hundreds of years ago, and the Sara
ms never possessed the machinery
we have, nor had the advantage of
knowing so much about metals as we
are supposed to know A huge fortune
awaits the man who discovers the Sc
cret which enabled the Saracens to
make sword blades so keen and hard
that they could cut in two most of the
swords used in our army today. There
are dozen different methods of max
ing artificial diamonds, but none of the
stones produced by these methods can
compare with those made of old
French paste, the secret of which is
lost. So perfect were paste diamonds
that it was difficult for even a person
with expert knowledge of diamonds to
tell that they were artifcially pro-
duced, whereas most of the modern
artificial diamonds can easily be de-
tected, and their durability is nothing
like so great as the old paste dia-
monds; indeed, good paste diamonds
are now almost as valuable as real dia-
monds. Probably not one out of
every 10000 buildings standing in all
parts of the world and built by mod
ern masons will be standing 500 years
hence. We do not know how to put
stones and bricks together as the an
clients did, and consequently the build
ings we raise nowadays are really mere
temporary structures and will be in
ruins when the ancient buildings of
Greece and Italy, which were built
thousands of years ago, are in as good
condition as they are now. The Sc
cret is not in the bricks or the stone,
but in the cement or mortar, neither
of which essentials can we make as
the ancients made them.

Chinook salmon Grow. 1arr..


The young salmon which Fish Com
missioner Mcguire marked before
turning out four years ago by cutting
off the adipose fin continue to be heard
from. and bid fair to throw more light
on the time required by Chinook sal
mon to attain their growth than any
thing else has done so far. Last year
quite number of these marked fish
were caught in the Columbia river.
having an average weight of "a
pounds. A few years ago Seufert
Bros. of The Dalles reported catching
one Of these marked fish weighing 50
pounds, and day or two ago one was
turned in at Pillar Rock canary which
weighed 40 pounds. From this it is
seen that in three years the Chinook
salmon grows to a weight of about "a
pounds. and in four years attains a
weight of from 40 to so pounds. Per-
haps some of the marked fish may be
caught next year. by which time they
will probably have attained their
growth. but the big ones of 20 pounds
and upward are doubtless more than 5
years old.

ney Disease, Say Doctors.
Americans drink far too much Of
cold beverages and consume too much
frozen condiments, says physicians,
And beauty doctors aver that woman
will never have a lovely complexion
while she looks into the soda water
glass when it froths or fingers too long
at the ice-water cooler. The low tenn
perature, say doctors, at which water
and liquors are so largely consumed
undoubtedly had as much, if not more,
to do with disease of the kidneys than
any other single cause. A writer in a
hygienic contemporary calls attention
to the fact that it is a great mistake
to imagine that cold drinks are neces-
sary to relieve thirst. He says: Very
cold drinks, as a rule, increase the few
erish condition of the mouth and stom-
ach, and so create thirst. Experience
shows it to be fact that hot drinks
relieve the thirst and cool off the body
when it is in an abnormally heated
condition better than ice-cold drinks
1t is far better and safer to avoid the
use of drinks below sixty degrees. In
fact, higher temperature is to be
preferred, and those who are much
troubled with thirst will do well to try
the advantages to be derived from hot
drinks, to which they have been accus-
toned. Hot drinks also have the ad-
vantage of aiding digestion instead of
causing debility of the stomach and
bowels"
