WORTH MORE THAN GOLD.
Value Of Ambergris- Floating
in the Sea-$3O an Ounce.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
A hundred pounds of ambergris has been
seized at Seattle stolen property. The
appraised value is $50 an ounce, or $4,000
for the hundred pounds. A hundred pounds
Of pure gold would not be worth as much
by $4,000. And were a hundred pounds of
gold to be stolen at Seattle q great stir
would be made about 1t. Ambergris is
scarcer than gold 1t is more Of an uncer-
tain quantity. 1t is harder to find and
harder to transport. 1t is found floating in
Jumps in the ocean. and occasionally in the
intestines of the spermaceu whale. There
are. however. few sperm whales available.
and the Jumps Of ambergris have been
growing scarcer as the whales have de-
creased in number
The price has advanced, but ambergris
always sold well. A piece weighing 100
pounds found inside whale killed near the
Windward Islands forty years ago sold for
So, 500 on the spot. and for much more when
it reached market The Dutch East India
Company paid the King of Tidore fortune
for lump OF ambergris weighing 1S3
pounds Forty and fifty years ago. when
ambergris was worth s. an ounce. it was
as much a center of thieving. intrigues and
plans as diamonds. In hundreds of cases
sailors in the Caribbean sea and in Bahama
waters became involved In serious trouble
through attempts to steal Jumps of am
bergrfs.
In the old time it was made the subject
of sea fights, and now that II Is worth six
times much as 1t was forty years ago
men plot to steal 1t as they would plan to
rob a bank Adventures watch for vessels
carrying 100 or 200 or 500 pounds of amber
girls as train robbers watch trains carry
ing gold east or west. Little wonder, il Il,
then, that the Puget sound country is as
much disturbed over tho stealing Of 100
pounds of ambergris as It would be over
the stealing of a cargo of gold from the
Klondike. Ambergris in this day IL worth
more than Its weight In gold.

Art In CONDUCTING.
From the Pail Mall Gazette.


The death Of Lieut.. Dan Godfrey-sad
enough as the actual fact is-surely brings
to the mind some profitable thoughts on
the subject of the art of conducting. He
was man who thoroughly believed in that
art of conducting; he recognized the infiu-
ence of the conductor upon band and he
fully realized the enormously important
chestral combination. The bare statement
of these truths seems at present somewhat
to trench upon the province of common
place. Yet there was time when the con-
ductor was looked upon with little revar-
ence enough, when it was considered that
the leader of the orchestra was good
enough for every purpose, and when the
relation between the timebeater and the
band was regarded being practically a
nominal element in successful playing
Such a phrase 1.-The personality of con-
ductOr' was then nonresident. Even at the
present moment you hear comments In I'M
Intelligent quarters upon the Valuelessness
Of conductor; and individuality on the
part of a conductor Is regarded in such
quarters as Pigment Of the critical brain.
Not perceiving the nature of an "undis-
practically say that no band that is bad
will play well under a good conductor, and
that, therefore. no. good conductor Is re-
6pOnsible for the fine playing of q GOOD
band. Such pioneers "a Lieut.. Dan Godfrey
(for we speak now of English conductors
and English audieqces) helped toward q
different point of view, and today, among
is regarded with reverence and discriminat-
ing criticism. mir

AIDS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.
What Kerosene Accomplishes in a
Campaign Against Dirt.

From the Kansas City Star.
The kerosene can is not thing of beauty
neither is 1t suggestive Of strength, yet 1t
is Of the most valuable Of the house
wife's allies. A spoonful Of kerosene added
to the basin of water in which the windows
are to be washed makes them beautifully
clear and easy to polish, while at the same
time 1t repels flies and mosquitoes. If
screen doors and windows are thoroughly
brushed and freed from dust. then wiped
over with kerosene. they will look as good
as new. while mosquitoes. flies and moth
millers Will give them a wide berth az long
as any trace of the odor remains.
In the laundry kerosene proves a great
saving Of labor Washing with kerosene
saves time. 1t dispenses with all the
rubbing that usually precedes the boiling.
Shave into the wash boiler one-half pound
good soap, NIL three-Quarters full OF water
and add two tablespoonfuls Of kerosene.

Kerosene will remove ink stains and fresh

City of Homes.
From the Chicago Journal.

From the chicago Journal
philadelphia" said Harry c. Howell, q
well-known business man of the Quaker
city. 'is emphaticajiy a City of homes. It
has more single dwellings, than New York,
Brooklyn. Jersey City and Hoboken COM
bined. and large maj ority of the house,
holders are also owners of their domiciles.
In this respect it has pre-eminently the ad-
vantage OF New York.
when you consider how much better it
is to rear a family of children in an indi-
vfdual building, which they know from in
fancy to be their home, the superiority Of
Philadelphia from the domestic viewpoint
is clearly apparent. Another good thing
as to its homes is that nearly all of them
have good yards. with room enough be-
tween them and neighboring dwellings, SO
that they are well provided with light In
some of our cities the average house Is as
gloomy as q dungeon on dark days.
Philadelphia may be jeered at for al
legged slowness. but for downright comfort.
as well as economy Of living, I think It
the finest city in the Union. A good resi-
dsnce can be rented there at cost not ex.
ceeding $500 q year, and all the neces-
stiles OF life are to be had at reasonable
COST
