There Is curious superstition in It.
ally that there is something very lucky
about wine which is upset by guest
and that every one at a table should
promptly dip his finger In the flowing
liquid. A well known singer explained
this custom the other evening when he
was dining at ducal table and was
SO uniucky as to upset a glass of wine
on the cloth. He instantly dipped his
niger in the wine and rlade the sign
OF the cross ON his throat; explaining
TO the company why he did so. Every
one present dipped a finger in the wine
and made little cross "for luck" even
the duke himself. The singer crossed
MS throat because his fortune lay In
his voice. but his strongest point must
surely be his tact.-London Chronicle.

OUR EYE ON GERMANY
We Are Watching the Kaiser's Moves q
the Venezuelan Coast

Washington, May 3.-Although the
matter never has figured before the
state department, the navy department
has been closely watching the happen
ings near Margarita island, off the
coast OF Venezuela, which have given
rise TO the report that a German coal
Ing station is to be established there
The facts have been reported to the
department by some of the United
States naval officers who commanded
vessels which have cruised in those
waters recently.
In view of the reported German sur
veys In that quarter the naval author
tiles here are showing unusual inter-
est in the points available for Ameri-

has been called upon specifically to
construe the Monroe doctrine so far
as 1t might relate to the attempt by
European government to secure a
coallng station in the Gulf of Mexico
or the Caribbean sea.

way for the fire engines.
Persons living in the vicinity of the

disaster with a warfare that had been
waged between the Zook and Cooley
