At present there is being founded
on the shores of the Pacific ocean in
Siberia the Russian city of Dalny
This city will form the terminus of
the new Siberian and Manchurian
railway, and it's site has hitherto been
known as Talienwan.
The unique thing about this new
city is that it begins its municipal
life with all modern improvements.
There are piers of stone and cement;
q large breakwater with no ships to
seek refuge behind it. The streets are
graded and paved, although there is
no traffic for them as yet. The diff
ferent quarters of the town have been
laid out, space provided for parks,
schools, churches, etc. Gardeners are
already identifying the parks Elec-
trio lights and electric railways are
already in operations. AS yet not a
foot of land has been sold, although
over $4,000 900 have been expended for
improvements and public buildings.
The population now exceeds $4,000,

1t is calculated that the city will

that when lands are sold taxation will
begin, and the citys government will
be placed in the hands of a council

can oil boom hit Lltchtheld. Il.. and
everybody for niles around was seen
smiling for oil end every stranger was
suspected of being an expert looking
for q good thing. An old farmer named
LOOMS had a big place three miles
out of town, which would have been
fortune for him had he not been pos
sossed of "a mania for swapping. mani
fest in a perennial attempt to trade
off his land for twice is value.
when the boom was at the top
notch Loomis received a visitor who
took so much interest I'm the farm, so
likel It's appearance, location, etc,
that the old farmer scented a petro-
leum man and saw visions of incalcula-
BILE wealth. Being a shrewd man, Loom
is did not care to take any unnecessary
chances with Providence. and on the
quiet he sent the hired man out the
back way with orders to dump the
kerosene can into the wen. The visi-
tor liked the entire place, inspected
the barn, the chicken yard, and tlen,
as If by chance asked for a drink of
water
LOOMS was waiting for that, and
hauled up a trimming bucket before
the mans own eyes and poured him
out gourdful of liquid with a fine, op-
alescent scum upon It, The visitor
smelled it, tasted it made a wry face
and asked If the water was always
like that Oh yes, said Loomis, but
you soon get used to the taste, and
our doctors say this is the finest wa
ter on earth for the stomach. Well, l
am ding DANCED if I'll ever get used to
it, was the unexpected response. 1 am
looking for a farm, not an oil well, and
# have got to haul my drinking water

rather buy nearer town.
1T took LOOMS six months to get
the taste of oil out of his well, and by
that time the boom was over and moth
ing was left of the oil craze but rot

Chean watches in Janan.

After years absence, John Kelly
returned home recently from Japan,
disappointed in his heart, and hun
dreds of cheap watches in his trunks.
He had gone to Japan with a little
private cargo of watches of low price,
expecting to sell them at handsome
profit to the natives But he found, in
Toxic, in Yokohama and the other
towns he visited, that the natives had
factories wherein they made large
quantities of timepieces as good as his
own in quality and much lower in
price. These factories were owned by
wealthy Japanese, but their foremen
were Americans who had been brought
out, at big salaries, to run the plants.
Mr. Kelley was not long in learning
that it was useless for him to try to
compete with the native watchmakers
of Japan. He repacked his trunks,
therefore, and returned home hurrid-
ly.-Philadelphia Record.

To what infinite pains people often
go, simply to "amuse" themselves.
They far surpass the limits of childish
make believe" and device in stenu-
Gus efforts to pass the time. For in
stance, at some of the seaside places in
France this year those stopping there
in quest of health or pleasure con-
ceived the idea of some unique bicycle
games. One consisted in the arrange
ment of large numbers of empty
flower pots in all sorts of zizzag figures,
among which bicyclists of both sexes
were to wheel, throwing a potato into
each pot, without losing balance or
smashing GROCERY. 1t was said to be
intensely exciting. and had great
vogue for time. Then there were
the hurdle races for bicyclists-the
hurdles consisting of sawdust filled
sacks-zigzag wheel runs between rows
of tennis balls, and glove and parasol
contests, in which prizes were given
for the most rapid pulling on and off
of gloves and opening and closing OF
parasols Besides these was the 'mu-
steal chair" game, where the players
ride around the rows OF waiting chairs
while the music continued, and on its
sudden cessation they made a rush for
seats, repeating this either until all the
CHAIRS were occupied or all the wheels
smashed.-New York Tribune

at nest building time, when they fire.

on account of their laziness. At suca

detected, both louder and shriller than
that of her mate, as she picks and tou-

THE ISLE Of MAN.

Formerly Independent, 1t Was Purchased
by England in 1903.
Lord and Lady Raglan are not rich
and have been, therefore, glad TO ex-
change the somewhat expensive Office
oil Understanding Of State for War,
which entailed residence in London,
for the goyernorship OF the Isle Of
Man, which carries with It an official
residence, a salary of about $4,000
q year, sundry allowances and very
few expenses. The Isle of Man, famous
for the production of Manx cats and
Of Hall Game, is as every one knows,
situated IN the Irish Sea, about equl-
distant from England, Scotland and
Ireland, and for three centuries in
times gone by was subject to Norwe-
gian rule.
Then it passed to the crown Of Scot
land, was seized by King Henry ~.
of England, and was bestowed by MIN
upon the Stanley family For the fol
lowing three centuries the sovereign
ty OF the island belonged to the Earle
Of Derby, who consequently included
among their titles that Of King Of the
Isle Of Man. On the death of the tenth
earl in 1886, without male issue, the
earldom of Derby went to his next
male heir, a cousin, but the sovereign
ty OF the Isle of Man went to his heir
general, the then Duke of Atholl, from
whose only child, a daughter, the
English crown purchased it in 1865
for a sum Of 100000.
Since then it has been administ-
cred by a governor and an indepen-
dent legislature, consisting of two
branches, the council and the house
Of keys. Lord Henniker was the last
governor and Lord Raglan now steps
into ris shoes
The people on the Isle of Man are
rather a strange lot, and it remains
to be seen how they will relish the
idea of Lady Raglan, Immediately
after her husband receiving the ap-
pointment as their governor, posing in
ner coronation robes at a charity ba.
zaar in Kent, three pence being
charged for the privilege of gazing on
her, precisely as if she had been the
fat lady, the human skeleton or the
india-rubber man at some country fair
But Lady Raglan has always beer
extremely odd, and when, few years
ago an INSCRIPTIONS London dentist
attempted to overcharge her for a sci
of false teeth, she preferred to go t
law about the matter and to submit
to no end of publicity in connection
with the affair, rather than to allow
herself to be imposed upon.
Lord Raglan is in the very prime o
life, considerably over six feet il
height broad in proportion, and while
in the guards-for he is an old soldie
used to be known by the NICKNAME
of "Old Honesty" He belongs to tn
Somerset family, of which the Duke o
Beaufort is the chief, and is the grand
son of that Lord Raglan who was CON
= mander in chief of the British arm
during the Crimean war.
Raglan Castle does not belong t
him. In fact, l believe it has nov

Somerset family altogether, and hi

THE NEW ENGLAND TOUR ENDED.
The President Boards His Yacht and Returns
to Oyster Bay,
CBv the Associated Press.)

Bridgeport, Conn. Sept. 3.-President
Roosevelt ended his tour of New England
here today, after his thrilling experience
at PittsfelG, Mass. He remained about
an hour aud a half and was escorted to
a stand in Seaside Park. where he had
intended delivering an address to work
men. He, however, excused himself
from making any speech, because OF the
accident, and at his request his carriage
was hurried away from its escort to en-
able him to board the Sylph, where Mrs.
Roosevelt and his son Kermet, embraced
him.
After bidding farewell to Dalton this
morning, the President. with Governor
Crane and Secretary Cortelyou, went
across country to Pittsfeld, where he re-
ceivcd a hearty greeting. The President
then started or the long drive to LenoN
and Stockbridge, which ended 50 disast-
rousN a short distance out from Pitts
field.
AS soon as it became evident that the
President was not seriously hurt, and
after he had given directions as to the
disposition of the body of the faithful
Craig. the President resumed his Journey.
Lenox was reached about Ills and his
passage through the town, which had
made elaborate preparations Tor MS en-
tcrtainment, was in silence. He tarried
but a moment. the swelling on his right
cheek causing him considerable discOm-
fort, but not to disappOint the people he
! spoke a few words to them, telling of the
| accident, and saying that he would make
no address,. He then passed on to
Stockbridgc. where, too, the people were
ready to make his entry into the city a
notable occasion. Speaking from his car
riage, his right eye almost closed and
getting very black, he said that for the
same reasons given at LenoX he would be
unable to deliver an address.
The departure of the President from
Stockbridge was pathetic. There were no
cheers, no waving of flags or handler
chiefs. only a word here and there to
break the death-like silence. Brief stops
were made at Great Darlington, Mass,
and Now Milford. Conn.
! On the way here DR.. Lung applied hot
I cloths to the Presidents face. which re-
duced the swelling considerably. The
President, though badly shaken up, kept
his nerve and was in good spirits, al
though he repeatedly referred TO the loss
of Craig, and said that but for tina deep
ly deplored fact he would regard the ac-
| cidcnt to himself as simply one of the
! incidents Of the trip.
