AS palaces go, Balmoral castle is by
no means large. When 1t was origi-
nally built it was intended to be pure
ly a private palace for Queen Victoria

to be no visitors, no lords-in-waiting.
and. moreover, the queens children
were children. Now. when her ma
jestys family had grown to a swarm.
and 1t is a common thing for her to
have nearly a dozen of them staying
with her at once, besides some other
visitors Balmoral court provides in
sufficient accommodations for the
cotrt. 1t is true that the latter is cut
down to the smallest limits. There
are still no lords-in-waiting. The min
lister in attendance has to leave his
Secretary behind. Still there is not
room for all the guests. so they are
scattered up and down in various an
nexes. Birkall, to the southeast Of
the castle, is allotted to one family;
Abergeldie castle and Abergeldit

are given to others. The rest ar,

Handy Man to Have About Newspaper
once IN an Emergency.
The musical critic was unable to at
tend the pianoforte recital, but the
handy man on the paper allowed that
he could do the thing easy enough. says
the Boston Transcript. And this is
how he did it: Herr Diapson's recital
last evening at Acoustic hall was the
most recherche event of the musical
season. Herr Diapson is master in
cantilever and both in his automobiila
ana in his tour de force he wrought
wonders of tonic stimulation. He was
especially potent in his dolce far niente
passages. and in his diminuendo cres-
cendo appoggiatura he displayed
( chronological skill that was simply
wonderful. There was also marvel
Gus musicianly abandon in the mute
! bars, the instrument in these parts OF
! the score being forcefully impressive
/ in silent fortissimo. But it was per-
1 haps in andante capriscioso that he
| excelled himself. Here he discovered
/ coloratura, bravura and an ensemble
| that fairly electrified his audience.
Herr Diapson, it is true, occasionally
4 erred in an overponderosity of utahaga
and again in too lambert lustspiel;
but these lapses were hardly notice
able in his rendering of cantabilious
intermezzo. The recital, upon the
whole. was marvellous exhibition OF
poca hontas Instrumentation and in
candescent cavatina." Slug four, who
takes lessons, said there was some
thing wrong about it, although he
couldn't say exactly what, and the
managing editor. upon looking the
critique over. was free to admit that II
was all Greek to him; still he said that
it seemed to read all right, SO far as h'
, could discover to the contrary. and il
!. was quite in the line of the regular
critics composition-more luminous
indeed, and he didn't see why i
: shouldn't be printed. 1t was lucky, h
said, that they had so able an all
around writer on the staff.

Tralfr Affeef Prices.

Professor jeremiah W. jerks OF Cor
nell university has made an unbiased
study OF the effects of trusts on prices.
which appears In the current number
Of the North American Review. From
the facts gathered by the United States
Industrial commission he deduees the
conclusion that prices are made high
or by the trusts than they would be
otherwise. The fact that prices OF
manufactured commodities are now
lower than they were before the era
OF combinations proves nothing either
way. The crucial question Is whether
or no, the margin between the cost o.
raw materials and the market price OF
the finished product has Increased
since the coming OF the trusts. Even
this is net an intallible test as regards
prices. for the trust may use Its power
10 force down the cost OF the raw ma
terial Il needs. but in general the size
OF this margin between raw material
and finished product is the most re-
liable test available.

EXPERIMENTS WITH FOXES.
Maine Man Rears Animals In Order to
study Varieties.

. After eight years OF experimenting
and study in rearing young foxes, DR..
Samuel Watson OF Lincoln. Me-, is OF
the opinion that the silver gray vari-
ETY. is the fox of the future, and that
the common red breed is running out,
to be replaced by the worthless cross
foxes and the almost priceless gray
ones. 1t has been his custom to catch
female foxes in traps in March and 70
keep them in easy confinement until
they give birth to pups. AS rule
mother fox will produce seven young
at litter, of which two or three will
be silver grays. Until the eyes of the
pups are opened and they are able to
run about the pen the mother treats all
of her offspring alike, giving them food
and protecting them from danger with
a strict impartiality. After that the
motherly instinct centers on the red
pups and the grays have a hard strug-
gle to live. The mother will not only
deny food them, but also take pains
to bite them without any apparent
provocation. In course of few weeks
| the grays become emaclated and weak
/ from lack of nourishment and care ana
lie down to die from starvation. In
some cases the mother gets SO dis
gusted with the young grays that she
falls upon them and bites them to
death by nipping them in the neck
| back of the ears. In the time he has
been studying the habits of these ami
mails DR.. Watson has kept more than
300 young foxes in custody. and though
nearly 20 gray pups were born into
the world in good health he has sue
ceeded in raising only six to maturity.
While the experiments OF DIR. Watson
have not been conducted over a period
long enough to arrive at accurate con-
illusions, it is his belief that the pro-
portion of gray pups in an average lit
ter is slowly growing. In every IN
stance under his supervision the gray
pups are larger and more vigorous
than the reds at the time of birth, and
continue to hold the lead until their
parents begin their peculiar method OF
wedding out undesirable progeny =
