eous impressions concerning the santa tion of Havana, and attention is called to the fact that that city now can be classed among the healthy cities of the world
 The report compares Havana health statistics with a number of eastern and southern cities of the United States, most of which are shown to have higher death rate than Havana. These cities look upon Havana with suspicion, but, says the report, Havana will have to guard against them in the near future.
 As to yellow fever, it is shown that in February 1900, Havana had r cases of that disease, against only new cases during the February just passed.
 Exhaustive measures are now being taken against the spread of the disease in Havana Beside disinfecting the houses and the rooms occupied by yellow fever patients are screened as soon as the case is reported and all mosquitoes in the building and adjoining dwellings killed by the fumes of pyrethrum powder. With these and other precautionary measures it is expected very materially to decrease the yellow fever during the coming sum T1r

Bernhardt and the Sofas.

An attache of the theatre in which Sa- rah Bernhardt played during her engage ment in New Orleans is quoted as fol- lows:
 When Bernhardt was here we had an awful time over the Camille sofa. You remember. sofa is used in the drawing room setting in Camille and, as she does some of her most effective posing on it. Mime. Bernhardt was determined 1t should be just so. We had several brands of sofa in stock ranging from what they call a rude pallet in melodrama to the gilded sofa of modern society plays, but she rejected the whole outfit at a glance and the prop. man hustled out for fresh supply. He came back with heaping wagonload. I never saw so many differ ent kinds. There were straight backed sofas. hump-backed sofas, fat plush fas. how-legged sofas almost everything you could imagine, but nothing suited the madame. She passed them in review, condemned the lot and told the prop. man In sign talk to go and get some more. How he scared up another wagonload I don't know, but he did it somehow, and dlIeT they were all luIHeu uOMIls lOO, we were pretty nearly at our wits end when we had an inspiration. We sent for friend, an auctioneer, who has had long experience in handling costly furniture from private houses and explained our di- lemma. Could he help us out? Sure He knew where to lay his hands on the exact sofa Mime. Bernhardt wanted. It was an heirloom a wonderful sofa de luxe cOy- cred with cloth of gold, and cost $500 in
 Paris. He would borrow 1t. In half an hour it arrived and 1t was certainly sumner We carried 1t in, satisfied we had hit the nail on the head at last, and, to our delight the madame proceeded 10 recline on it. Then she made some re- mark to her dresser in French. What does she say? asked the prop. man, anx- iously She says it will do to sit on while you go after more replied the dresser That settled it. We didn't know where to go. The visible supply of sofas was ex- hausted, and we told the madame as well as we could that she would have to give us time to explore the curio shops and other odd hooks and corners. She finally grasped what we were driving at, shrug- ged her shoulders ironically and went back to the hotel As she entered her apartments she glanced around and saw very modest, unpretentious sofa stand ing in one corner. 'Ah!' she said in
 French; the very thing! Send it to the theatrer In five minutes it was on the
 baggage elevator, and that was the sofa
 we used in the play"

HAVANA'S HEALTH.
General Wood Sends Report Showing
 Great Improvement In Cuba.

Washington, March PA report has been received at the War Department from General Wood showing that the death rate of Havana for February was 1882 per 1000. which is said to be below the average of most American cities. The death rate, it is said, steadily decreases, and this is taken as an indication of inn proved sanitary conditions.
 The death rate is considered remark able During the last February of Spanish rule in 1898 it was S232 per 1000 The par ticular object of the report is to endeavor to correct what are said to be erron-

tail production. but this has been without special effect upon demand for either print cloths or heavy brown cottons.
 Quotations for pig iron and finished steel tend toward a higher level There is still the wholesome element of conser- vatism, which prevents violent tluctua- tions and keeps the advance at moderate rate. but the tendency of the market Is undeniably toward better things. The most conspicuous strength is apparent in Bessemer pig which now commands S1 at Pitsburg, while steel billets have sold al $24 and higher. carbon billets reached s30. Steel bars are q per ton higher and structural shapes are firmly maintained with every execution of an advance. While these quotations show moderate gains, much higher rates are paid for inn mediate delivery and in small amounts. A short time ago it was expected that new ore prices would be much lower, but the remarkable strength of products will tend to sustain values of the raw ma terial. Among the minor metals further depression in tin was the feature.
 The amount of cotton coming forward indicates that plantation stocks are by no means exhausted. and preparations for the new crop promise an enormous acreage. From the top point of the sea- son the price has fallen $1S.45 bale, and the only apparent element of strength at present Is the oversold condition of the speculative market.
 Footwear Is firmly maintained for sta pie lines although high-prieed grades are easier. Some decrease In the demand does not disturb productions as factories are busy on contracts that will require some months to fill. Orders for boots have ex- ceeded last years to date, with trade most active at the South. Buyers who recently left Boston are now sending in oraers freely Especial activity is noticed In the local market for patent and enam- el shoes. Leather is in good demand par ticularly for sole. but quotations are un- changed, although stocks are light Hides at Chicago have declined almost steadily for two months, the net fall in the aver age of ten grades amounting to 7.2s. De- spite the weakness in domestic lines. for eign hides are tending upward. Special reports this week indicate that the win ter wheat crop Is in good condition. and an unusually heavy acreage was planted at the Southwest, while ravages by the Hessian fly have been exaggerated
 Failures for the week numbered 224 in the United States, against 183 last year, and 3S in Canada, against 27 last year.
