CAMPBELL
BADLY INJURED
Left Leg Broken in Two Places
in a Runaway Ac-
cident.

Marston Campbell, Assistant Super
intendent of Public Works Department,
yesterday morning about o'clock sus-
tanned a fracture of both bones of the
left leg above the ankle. He is now
at the Queens Hospital and is resting
as well as can be expected under the
painful circumstances. 1t was at first
thought that amputation would be nee
essary, but the surgeons reduced the
fracture satisfactorily.
Mr.. Campbell was driving to town in
his road buggy behind one horse and
in the vehicle were two of his children.
When on Beretania street near the
pumping station, the front axle broke
and caused the horse to bolt. Before
Mr.. Campbell could secure control of
the animal it had started at a terrific
pace townwards. The horse was veer-
ed toward the side of the street and
the vehicle crashed into a telephone
pole. Mr.. Campbell striking it with
considerable force, the result of which
was a comminuted fracture of the tibia
and simple fracture of the fibula. The
little girls happily were not injured.
Mr.. Campbell was taken at once to the
Queens Hospital and the bones set.

William j. Forsyth, formerly Cey-
lon coffee planter, who some years ago
made an expert report on the possibili-
ties of coffee raising in the Hawaiian
Islands, writes TO friend in this city
that he is living in Cofetal, NetzahuaI-
coytl, Trotiblan de Canine, Oaxaca,
Mexico, engaged in farming. He writes
that "the price of Mexican Exchange
has gone up so greatly of late years, or
in other words, the price of silver de-
preciated so much, that 1 am persuad-
ed something may be done between this
country and yours
He states that corn is being raised
in Mexico very cheaply and thinks that
it can be sold to advantage to feeders
of stock in the Islands.
He sends his regards to the many
friends whom he met here and who
were so kind to him.

A new and very fashionable style Of
bracelet and necklet is composed of
pearls and enamel "bugles'-to use
the old-fashioned word for those long,
narrow-tube beads which are again
in evidence. The bugles are black,
white or colored. Black studded with
white pearls, and with a black and
white enamel shamrock pendant, are
charming for mourning White beads,
with the faintest pink pearls, and little
rose pendant, or green bugles punctu-
ated, as 1t were, with smoked pearls
and with iyy-leaf pendants. are one
and all extremely pretty. Turquoises
are well used with white or gray en-
amel beads and forget-me-not pend
ants, and any artistic jeweler could
evolve a dozen different and equally
attractive modes OF blending the slen-
der tubes and round pearls.

sunnite and shilte Hair Growth.

The Mahometan religion is divided
into two principal sects, the Sunnites
and the Shiites. The members of these
sects can be readily Disseminated by
the fashion in which the hair grows
on their arms, for while on those of
the Sunnltes the growth turns down
ward from shoulder to wrist on the
interior side and upward from wrist to
shoulder posteriorly, the hair on the
Shiite arms presents the contrary ap-
pearance on both sides of the arms.
This singular divergence is produced
by the manner of washing their arms
as prescribed by the tenets of the sects
respectively, for while Sunnites hold
it orthodox to stroke their arms, after
washing them, from shoulder to wrist
on front and from wrist TO shoulder on
the back, the Shiites abhor this prac-
tice and stroke their arms in the oppo-
site ways, and hence the two directions
in which the hair Is seen to grow on
the arms Of the two sects.--The Ian

Many Phases That the Fancy of Collect

With all the other epldemics present

of keeping a scrapbook. Almost ev.

some stage or other, for there are
many stages. Some never get beyond
the first--that of buying the best book

portunity never comes. really, but just
threatens to set in every time one
who has passed through a succeeding
stage tells OF his experience. Some
persons again let their scraps accum-
ulate and have one happy season of
pasting while others paste from day

the subjects suitable for the preserva-
ton process.
There is no end to the variety Of
things that may compose a scrapbook.
1t may be II collection of ones own
effusions published or refused such
honor, or 1t may be simply newspaper
pictures or monOgrams, or hotel letter
heads, or souvenir postal cards, or
dance orders, or menus, or dramatic
criticisms, or book reviews, or rise
to the dignity of Il collection of opin-
ions on the Chinese situation or the
constitutional convention. Some are
capable OF keeping as many scrap
books as there are subjects for them,
and thereby become the possessor OF

once in a decade OIL rainy days by the

dust heap when the compiler's heirs

ton of what they shall DO with it.
Perhaps one heir and assign in

!, LAKE STURGEON DYING OUT.
Species is Almost Extinct and Caviar IL
Scarce.

Scarce.
The sturgeon family Of fish is prac-
tlcolly extinct so far as the lakes Of
North America are concerned, and
makers of caviar are wondering what
will fill their cans in the future. With
the passing away OF the sturgeon
comes the announcement that none
but cultivated" Holsters now exist.
When fish merchants took stock with
the closing of the season for the Great
Lakes they discovered that one of
tile former substitutes for whitefsh
and trout during the months of No.
vember, when none of these varieties
of the fnny tribe is allowed 20 be
taken from the lakes, was missing
There is no fresh sturgeon to be had
The public is already provided with
substitute for smoked sturgeon In
the meat of the Mississippi River cat
fish. True, the flesh of the catfish is
about as tenacious as rubber hose, but
it looks good. Then many persons
prefer the smoked halibut of the Pa
cihc Ocean.
The history of the discovery. IN
PRODUCTION into the market and eX-
tinction Of sturgeon in American lakes
dates back twenty-five years. Then
the sturgeon was first placed on tho
market, though few persons ate
them. The flesh was not considered
very dainty. The big fish could be
taken from Lake Erie by the wagon
load and sold at n low price.
In fact, the price was so low that
few persons engaged in catching the
fish. Then some one discovered that
the fish was more salable when
smoked. Thousands of the fish were
smoked and palmed off on the credu-
lous public as smoked halibut, which
was quite expensive. The increase
in supply of halibut cut Off the price OF
sturgeon to such an extent that the
fishermen who had been dealing in
sturgeon were threatened with bank
ruptcy.
1t was about this time that caviar
became very popular with Americ ans
Caviar Is made from the roe, or eggs,
of sturgeon, but it had been supposed
until some fifteen years ago that the
roe of the sturgeon frcm Rus ian
seas was the only kind for cavier.
Some one discovered that the rec of
American sturgeon made quite as
good caviar as did the Russian ish.
That was the beginning of the enI of
the sturgeon tribe. The great fish
were hauled in by the boat load and
ninety-hve per cent. of those liien
were females full of roe. Cavia be
came cheaper and sturgeon be,lme
dearer. From a fraction of n ceut
pound the fish advanced to t,yen-
ty-two cents Il pound. Even at the
price the Great Lakes failed TO pro
duce the coveted fish. Then recourse
was had TO the lakes of Manitoba,
Canada.
Now the sturgeon have been ami
hilated almost entirely. AS the sup
ply of this family became scarcer some
one started to substitute Mississippi
River catfish. When this rubbery fish
is dressed and smoked it looks exact
ly like smoked urgeon.-Chicago

principle on Chinese junks from time

generally one bulkhead forward and

The recurrence of a foggy season
directs attention again to a serious
municipal problem. 1t causes us to
wonder whether the heaviness Of the
atmosphere OF Philadelphia is due
most to the dampness or to the SCOT

fiue and chimney pot, and are unable
TO ascend during these periods of me-
teorological depression. 1t is well
known fact that London particular
is little more than the smoke Of the
great metropolis. which for the time
being refuses to rise and overwhelms
man and beast. The heavy atmosphere
Of Pittsburg, Cincinnati and Cleveland
hangs over those cities like pail, and
when dampness accompanies the ha-
bitual condition Of smokiness the evil
is aggravated. becoming at times In

Rules of English Court Life.

There are numerous rules of court

yersation with royalty arises, royalty
takes the initiative. When passing a
member Of the royal family at Il social
function courtesy and bow is ex-

for the time being his property. His
meals are served separately and the
host and hostess can only eat with him
at his invitation. A piece of paper on
which a letter is written to the sover-
eign must never be folded, but must
be inclosed in an envelope large
enough to hold 1t without folding. At
