as others would counsel that one allow
his wet clothing to dry upon him.
Either way is good enough, for no one
ever gets sick in camp. Wet feet are
not so dangerous as cold feet, in camp
or anywhere else.
Naturally if you go fishing or shoot
ing. you will be poisoned by poison
ivy. Authorities in the sporting pa
pers say that any infusion of the bark
or berries of boughs of the common
spice bush is a sovereign remedy for
poison ivy. The infusion should be
taken internally and applied external
ly. Witch hazel, if you can really get
witch hazel and not the Intellectual
dilution Of it, is also good in case of
ivy poisonig.
Of course, if you go fishing or shoot
ing the mosquitoes will bite you good
deal. Learn to like this, for it is a
good deal of bother to prevent it. Wear
a pair of f1ngerless gauntlet gloves,
and when the pests are bad tie a hand
kerchief around the back of your neck.
If you must have dope, a simple for
mula to remember is tar, sweet oil,
and pennyroyal. If you burn insect
powder in your tent it will drive out
insects. Camphor, or borolyptol or
naphtha1ene will cure the poison of a
mosquito bite quickly.

auditors that the statue had been

given to posterity by a people who felt
honored in honoring the strongest

TOURING IN NORWAY.

The tourist traffic in Norway is
larger this year than ever before.
The largest number of tourists select
the Valders and Telemarken route.
OttadaIs route is, perhaps, the next
best, while the Gudbrandsdalen jour-
ney is not forgotten. To Kongsbrug
the way is becoming more difficult,
and the reason is accounted for oy
the raising of hotel prices. The
North Cape season is over, although
the berths on the last Tromso steamer
were all filled. There was no Splits
bergen tour this year. Americans and
Germans had the call this season, the
Danes and Swedes taking their way
to the Norwegian sanatoriums ana
spending their entire vacations there
Altogether, Norway is enjoying q
prosperous summer. Business is tax
ing on a steady tone. Drammen Will
ship 1000 tons of wooden goods to
England and Germany. Norway has
an abundance of costly woods and
wooden implements. She is shipping
building stone and paving stone ant
increasing the facilities for utilizing
the abundance of raw material thai
she poss esses.

nese, and in consequence all inter-
views have to be interpreted to him
by dragomans; thus the conversation
is laborious and has to be made as
short as possible. The empress. who
belongs to one Of the leading Japanese
families, is honored and revered for
her goodness and inexhaustible
charity. Although her majesty
speaks no foreign language, yet every
foreigner who enters her presence is
charmed by the marvelously express
sive play of her features.
The empress is nearly 81 years of
age, but she shows to this day that
she is rightly entitled to her family
name, "Haruko." the Spring" Her
majesty belongs to the few women
who seem never to grow old, and who
in the autumn of life possess the
charm of knowing how to preserve
the smiling loneliness Of their youth.
She is a devoted friend of literature,
and she is never SO happy as when
she can celebrate the three great
festivals of the year, surrounded by
the poets attached to the court
These festivals are those of the New
Year, the Church and the Chrysan-
themum. The empress is herself a
poetess, and has established a COM
petition for Japanese poets, and for
the competition she fixes the subject.
But, it is for her works of charity that
the empress is the most renowned,
and she is at the head of all national
efforts in this direction. The Red
Cross society claims a great deal of
her time. and during the war with
China she YVES very often to be seen
attending to the wounded japanese.

ONE ORANGE TREE.
From 1t Agricultural Department
Established Orange Industry.

From 1t Agricultural Department
Established Orange Industry.
There is an orange tree at the
agricultural department which. tradi-
ton says, has produced revenue
sufficient to meet all the expenses of
that department for the last thirty
years. It's history is interesting.
About 1870 an American woman told
Mr.. Saunders, the expert on pomology
for the department, that she had en-
joyed the most delicious oranges
while. in the vicinity of the city of
Bahia, Brazil. and believed he would
do we'll to procure some of the bud
ded fruit as an experiment in this
country.
The secretary of agriculture re
quested our consul at that point to
send him twelve budded trees. They
came in due time. and were in turn
budded on small seedlings for dis
tribution. There is one great tree
that survived, and, while they did not
thrive in Florida. they did on the
Pacific coast. and today the naval or
Bahia orange, the father of that
industry in California. owes it's ex-
istence to the single tree now stand
ing in the glass house in the agri-
cultural grounds.
Of the crop of about 10000 carloads
for 1901 at least $4,000 Of them were
of the navel variety, while the
revenue varies from 100000 to S.
100000 a year.
The statement of this fact. a single
tree having produced sufficient
revenue to sustain the department
for a period of thirty years, never
fails to awe the tourist. and causes
him to beg for a single leaf from the
wonderful money Washington
Star.

and the Empress.
The western world hears very little
of the distant and somewhat secret
court of the mikado. Yet it is interest
ing in more than one respect, for the
poetical charm of it's traditions is
giving place gradually before the
advent of the spirit Of the times.
The mikado Mutsuhito is regarded as
one of the cleverest and at, the same
time most modest rulers recorded in
japanese history. When he over
threw the Shotgun" in 1868 and re-
stored to his own dynasty, he won at
once the admiration and sympathy of
his people by abolishing a despotic
form of government in favor OF a
milder form. In his own country ne
is known as hotel, but he is generally
referred to abroad as the mikado, or
the honorable gate. The mlkado is
of comparatively large stature, and
his very majestic bearing is increased
by the generals uniform which he
usually wears. In his daily walks he
never passes beyond the limits OF the
imperial gardens except on the oc-
casion Of the opening of parliament
and at rare intervals for the purpose
of attending military and civic
festivals. Unlike his predecessors
the mikado is very frequently to be
seen driving in his carriage, and when
he passes through the streets the

disappear from the line of route or to
turn their backs toward their rulepS
It is curious to learn that this attitude
| betokened a form Of the highest
respect. Nowadays the people learn
that the mikado is approaching only
from the shouts Of the police: The
mikado; beware!"
But, as the Japanese are not yet
entirely accustomed to the new order
of things, striking contrasts between
the old sacred traditions and modern
/ ideas are often to be seen. One Gay
the mikado nearly lost his life
through this conflict between the old
and the newer aspect Of life in Japan
| The imperial carriage had arrived al
a railway crossing just as a train
happened to be coming up. The man
in charge of the. crossing did not dare
| to lower the barrier before the
mikado, and the engine driver could
not bring his train to a standstill
However, the mikado escaped by q
| miracle.
At home the mikado is necessarily at
work. He makes a point of being in
formed Of everything that happens
both in Japan and in foreign
countries. He is very easy of access
for all his subjects, especially for
those of his people whom he has in
trusted with missions abroad. Or
the other hand, he can grant only
very short audiences to European
diplomats. He speaks only Japa

CLAIMS FOR DELAY.
Cramps Had to Wait for Armor for
the BattIeshps,

Washington, July 9.-The navy de-
partment has been advised that the
Messrs Cramps of Philadelphia have
a claim of about $264,OOO against the
government for delay incident to fur
nishing armor for the battleship Ala
bama. The delay was caused by the
controversy in congress as to the quail
lty OF armor and pending the contro-
versy no armor was available for the
Alabama and number of other ships
under construction.
The Alabama was begun in Decem-
Der, 1896, and under the three years
contract would have been completed
in December, 1899. But owing to the
lack of armor the ship was not actu-
ally completed for many months after
this time. Other claims will be made
for delay in furnishing armor to other
ships, it is said. There was delay on
the armor of the Illinois, Wisconsin
and three ships of the Maine class.

OLD CUBAN BONDS.
United States Government Will Not

Washington, July 9.-It was ascer-
tanned at the war department that if
is not the intention of this govern
ment to interfere in Cuba to the ex-
tent of preventing the payment of C,,-
ban bonds should the new govern
ment of Cuba determine to assume
the bonds issued by the former So
called government and junta. Under
the Platt amendment the amount of
the indebtedness is limited by the pre-
vision that the new government shall
not assume or contract any public
debt which the ordinary revenues of
the government will not pay the inter-
est upon and also create a sinking
fund to pay after defraying the ex.
penses Of the government. Under this
clause the United States will deter
mine when the debt either contracted
or assumed has reached a limit. 1t
is stated that the independence Of
Cuba carries with it the right to Gre
ate obligations and to incur indebt-
edness within these limitations.
