The farmers and fishermen along
the bay shores ate terrapin because
II was economical TO do SO. The
crop was so valueless that they
would not take the trouble to gather
any more than was sufficient for the
use OF their own families during the
season. Naturally they would ex-
rect their slaves 10 take to the same
kind of food, but the slaves were
right out in open rebellion against
terrapin. They were docile enough
and endured all sorts of hardships.

Il Made Terrapin Stew Famous the
World Over.
EpIeures Pronounce III the Greatest
81 Culinary TriumDhs = Taste
for the Amphibian an Ac-
qnired one.

Especial Washington letter.
-ERRAPIN time has come again.
This delicacy Of the rich and
epicurean is becoming we'll
nigh extinct. Systematic cultivation
alone has prevented the entire disap-
pearance OF the once numerous am
phibians.
Terrapin farming-that is. the
"planting" of terrapin as il would De
known in oyster terminoIogy-i not
by any means new. About twenty
five years ago man of the name OF
Dorlin established a terrapin pound
lust below Mobile where he kept
young terrapin for growth, and
where he claimed to be also raising
terrapin from the egg. The report
of the fish commission, however,
denies that he did any breeding. The
Dorlin terrapin farm was destroyed
by one of the terrific Gulf storms,
and was never reestablished.
Every year there Is scare
throughout the eastern country, par
ticularly in New York. Philadelphia,
Baltimore, and Washington, over the
likelihood of the disappearance OF ter
rapin. Last year the report was
spread at the beginning of the fall
and winter season, and the wealthy
were obliged to pay enormous prices.
They were the more anxious to have
terrapin at any price, because deal
ers said that another winter might
come and no terrapin would be served.
The report again went all over
this section late the past summer
when the farmers and fishermen OF
MARYLAND and Virginia were impound-
ing terrapin for the coming winter
trade. All along the shores of Ches-
apeake bay supplies of terrapin are
being collected for the market of the
immediate future. There are laws
against impounding terrapin, but
they are ignored.
Although there is no sale for ter
rapin until snow flies, which is about
Christmas time, the farmers of the
states contiguous to the bay are con
stantly on the lookout for stray ter
rapin, which they pick up and take
home, where they hold them for the
season. They do not fatten them.
On the contrary they seldom feed
them. Terrapin hibernate. When
he has had his spring or summer
feed he can be put in pen or barn
and left for two or three months.
He will not die. A Baltimore dealer
nailed one in box and left him
there for three months, at the end Of
which time he claimed that the cap
tive weighed one ounce more than
he did when he was imprisoned. This
story is one which is well verified.
and there are other tales of terrapin
longevity, which are regarded by
some as of less credulity. Scientists
all admit, however, that the terrapin
Is alternating amphibian.
In the neighborhood of Chinco-
teaque island, near the eastern shore
of Maryland, in Chesapeake bay,
there are several houses where from
200 to 1000 terrapin are stored in
straw in good seasons. They are
very curious looking fellows of all
sizes and are a sight to behold.
Whenever the owner wants to dis
play them he raps hard on the side
Evening capital. (Annapolis, Md.) 1884-1910, 1903-12-04

of the house before opening the door.
Each terrapin sticks his head out of
the straw to see what the noise is
about. They have very acute hear
ing and manifest great curiosity
whenever any unusual noises are
heard. Down south they are lured
to destruction by this trait. A fish
erman rowing over the mud banks
raps on the side of his boat. Water
carries the sound, and the terrapin
comes to the surface to see what
made that noise, and the fisherman
very promptly satisfies the curiosity
of the inquirer.
The officials of the fish commits
sion do not believe that the terrapin
will become extinct so long as
systematic farming is carried on,
but they believe that this industry
should be increased very largely.
Washington and Lafayette, Corn
wallis and Tarleton knew the quality
of terrapin stew, but they ate it
sometimes for want of something
better, and not as a luxury. Ter
rapin stew was one of the hardships
of their military environments oc-
casionally. There was at one time
a law in Maryland providing that a
man should feed only so much ter
rapin to his slaves, for even the
slaves rebelled against such diet.
And, Tor that matter, no civilized
white man really likes terrapin when
he first eats it, but acquires the
taste because it is fashionable and
expensive, and because everybody

 The winnings of American owners on the English turf were not very prominent this season But several or these owners won respectable amonnts. The largest winner of the actual Amer lean owners was James K. heene' though out of a formidable string only five horses earned winning brackets and these accounted for one race each. The top-notcher of the stable was Lan- cashire who won the foal stakes at KeGpton Park, the son of Kingston contributed 75 per cent of the keene winnings Altogether the amount won by this stable was S22.0OO.
 William C. Whitney figured in the list and stands next to MT Keene. the earnings being $20.o0o. For this amount Of cash the Whitney horses won about three times as many races as the two Keene horses. Twelve of MT Whitney's youngsters contriputeo eighteen victories, but they were minor events.

Insurgents Under Arms In Favor of
 Late President Jimfne1.
 SANTO. DOMINGO, Dec. 26.--Lt is rumored that the greater part of the republic now under arms is in favor of General Jiminez, the former presi- dent. who Is said to be marching on this city at the head of a large body of insurgents. The provisional gov ernment Is making active preparations for defense. San Pedro de Nfacoris has declared in favor of the insurgents. The situation here is becoming ex- tremely critical, though the city Is quiet in expectation of events.
 There is great depression in business circles as the results of the constant disturbances of the financial situa- tion. The financial condition of the gov ernment is very bad owing to the fact that the duties were mortgaged in ad- vance by the government of President Wos y Gil. The United States cruiser Panther and gunboat Newport, the German cruisers yineta and Gazelle and the Dutch warship De Ruyter have ar rived in the harbor.

Dreyfuss Does Not Think There Will

 The national commission which set ties baseball disputes, will meet in Cincinnati early in January, and at the same meeting the committee appointed by the National league, consisting of Dreyfuss. Hart and Hermann, to try and work out a solution of the Davis Jones tangle will get their heads to- gether, though the only solution, so far as these men playing ball is con- cerned, appears to be for them to re- port to, the Chicago Americans. where the baseball authorities already have decided they must go. Asked yester- day if he had any idea as to what would be suggested at the meeting re- garding Davis and Jones Dreyfuss frankly replied: T don't know
 -"There never was 8 ball player worth kicking up such fuss about" he continued. 'sAt least I have never seen one. The best player living is not worth it."

 'T don't think there will be. The foul strike rule has been big success, and most players and spectators like 1t. among the former Jimmy Collins. who told me he liked 1t. If the first foul is strike then the second is q strike. The rule has not hurt batting and has not hurt base running. When 1t was first adopted my players all wanted it repealed, as they were afraid it would hurt their babt1ng. but in two weeks they all liked 1t. think the American league would be afraid it would hurt their batting. in favor of the rule now. if 1t had not been National league measure" Clarence Quinn. last year with the Philadelphia Americans and the Nor wich team of the Connecticut State league, has accepted terms from tho management of the Toronto Eastern league team for next season.
