Ventilation In the Hat.
From the New York Times

From the New York Times.
Some customers have nonsensical
potions about the proper way to ven
tilate a hat" said fashionable hat
ter. In fact, they are so whimsical
about it that we make the hats with
out a ventilator and try to suit the
wishes of the customer after he has
handed his money to the salesman.
Many customers will not have a hat
ventilated at ALL Well, they miss a
great deal of comfort and take long
chances for badness in old age. The
English style, and the only one that
some buyers will adopt, is a ring of
perforated holes in the crown of the
hat. In my opinion II is just as well
TO have no ventilator at all as to put
1t there. The best way is to have two
holes, one on each side of the hat,
Just above the band. Then you get
good circulation all the time. There
are ways of punching the holes ar
tistically so that they do not detract
from the appearance of the hat. But
you would be surprised at the num-
Der of men who will not have them,
some because 1t is not fashionable, and
others because they think the hat will
not wear so well.

A NEW FOOD PLANT.
Curious Growth of Uganda Recently Discovered by a Coffee
 Grower.

There have recently been imported into England specimens of the *glycine subtsrranea,'' a plant which is in some respects the most curious in the world, reports a London paper. Mir Balland, who has reported on it, says that it's roots contain every principle necessary for human food. The plant was dis covered by coffee grower in Uganda. Its bulb is shaped like an egg, and is of dark red hue with black stripes. It is ground into four which tastes like chestnuts. Two pounds of this flour is sufficient to keep man for a day, and will supply the place of bread, meat, butter and vegetables Unfor- tunateIy, the glycine will not flourish in cold climates. It is, however, to be introduced in India and Brazil, where it should prove an enormous addition to the food plants there available. No doubt it's finder will make very good thing of his discovery.

GREEN TURTLES OF FLORIDA
Fishermen Catch Them with Nets as They Float i'm Balls of
 Grass.

The green turtles of southern Flor ida live in deep water and feed on sea plants, mostly the kind called turtle grass" which they cut off near the roots, eating the lower parts and leav- ing the tops floating so that it collects in great fields and marks the spots where the animals are to be hunted for by the fisherme1A After browsing in such ocean pastures the green tur- ties go to the mouths of rivers for baths of fresh water, which they seem to aeed from time to time. The Flor ida fishermen say the reptiles enter tho creeks and roll together in masses of grass, cementing them into balls with clay. When the turn of the tide takes the balls out to sea they follow them. The fishermen watch for such balls floating down the creeks, and when they see them they stretch nets across the mouths of the streams and always catch the turtles.

Judge Alton B. Parker of New York has lately taken a stand that pract- cany eliminates him from the race as a residential candidate, says a Wash ington correspondent. Still, he has some warm admirers and friends among the democrats who visit the ma tionaI capital and who claim for him that he is the most available man to lead the democratic forces next year. They have not nruch to say of him concerning his record, as that is con fined almost solely to the judicial bench, but they say he is a most ami able and learned man. Those who prefer some other candidate, in dis cussing Judge Parker, say trat he is tied up with David B. Hill, and would be controlled .by HiII and they distrust Hill Judge Parker's name may go before the convention, but it is moi likely that the state of New York will present him as the candidate of that state.

FATE OF THE MULE

Once upon a time there was a mule.
 Now this mule was blind of both eyes.
 The man who owned the mule was glad of this
 He figured that so long as the mule was blind it couldn't see to kick him when be approached it.
 And so he approached the mule many years in safety.
 One day the mule was standing alone out in the field.
 T. fell to thinking of how unkind Fate had been to it.
 The mule could not understand why it had been born blind while other mules had been blessed with perfect vision.
 The more the mule thought this over the more discontented and unhappy it became.
 And so it suddenly lifted both hind hoofs and kicked-hard
 Now it happened that the man who owned the mule was approaching it from behind with halter in his hand when the mule kicked.
 The hoofs of the mule struck the man and he died

entering college again, he says, ! should at first, however warmly so- licited, join no fraternity. At some in- stitutions with which I am acquainted should never join, and anywhere I would wait to know my ground Fra ternities do great good As they exist at many seat of learning they can hardly be criticised. often use them hard work and exemplary conduct They are susceptible of indefinitely large service in this way, as in other ways. But at some centers their in- fiuence painfully promotes cliques, shfbboleths, and partisan temper. Where it is so I should utterly avoid them, preferring the risk of losing whatever good fraternity might do me rather than that of falling into this antsocial spirit. American man. hood needs toning up in individuality of thought and action. In matters of opinion we go too much in droves. h. stead of strengthening this tendency college life should help annul it. Fra ternity electioneers sometimes seek to dragoon their victims into the Valley of Decision by crying: Now or New CT. This is your last chance; unless you join us at once you are hopelessly left" This insults the man to whom it is said It means that when you are better known you will not be, wanted. It may be that men unite with fra ternities who, should they wait, would wait in vain; yet upper-classmen are taken into the best fraternfties every year. I would not enter a fraternity under this or any other pressure. How ever desirable to be in a fraternity, such membership is not absolutely necessary for college success. If you wish to join, provided you are worthy and your initial college record is good, the way will open, even if you are not rushed in on the ides of your freshman October.

NEW BUILDING MATERIAL.
Great Things Are Expected of Ura1- ite, the Invention of g Rus-
 sian Officer.

4 new building material which promises much for the future is called uralite. 1t is the invention of a Rus sian artillery officer and chemist named Imsehentezky. Uralite is com posed of asbestos fiber, with g proper proportion of silicate. bicarbonate of soda and chalk, and is absolutely ire proof. Tn soft form sheet of ural- ite is like an asbestos board; when hard it resembles finely sawn stone and has metallic ring Besides be- ing a non n-conductor of heat and cleo tricity, it is practically waterproof (and may be made entirely so by paint), and it is not affected either by atmospheric influences or by the acids contained in smoke, which rap idly destroy galvanized iron. It can be cut by the usual carpenters or woodworker's tools; it can be ve- neered to form paneling for walls or partitions; it can be painted, grained, polished and glued together like wood; 1t is not affected when exposed to moisture CT great changes of temper ature, and it can be given any de- sired color either during the process of manufacture or afterwaEd.

It is now quite evident that the late heavy decline in stocks was intensi- fed by artificial means, says Banker Clews in his weekly special. A conn pifation has been made showing that this years shrinkage in securities amounted to 2,650 millions, compared with shrinkage of 1900 millions and capitalization of 4,668 millions in 1893, a year of general financial disas- ter. Thus, in a year of general pros perity we have had a contraction dou- ble that incurred in year of diversity, only ten years ago. Every one- must appreciate that such an enormous shrinkage in so limited period is out of all proportion to any changes in con- ditions affecting values. Conceding that there was high degree of infia- ton in 1902, that the money market had drifted into a critical condition be- cause of excessive obligations, and that the stock market was carrying a threatening mass of indigestible secu- rites, there were no changes in the crop, industrial, mercantile or finan- cial situations that began to warrant any such tremendous decline as this. All sound opinion agreed that, while the top of the. boom might have been reached, no important decline in the volume of business was in sight; and, outside of Wall street, the signs of re- action were few and unimportant until the chilling influence of fear began to spread beyond financial precincts

WHAT IS A aGAZABO?*
This Is the Question Aldermen Want
 Answered.

 Answered.
 Tn the course of a debate the other one alderman called another "gaza- bo.' This picturesque and eloquent word has thrown the erudite of Lon don into conyulsions. What is 2 'gazabo?" they are asking, and fail to get an answer. Even MT Murray has confessed to an inability to give the proper explanation.
 It is therefore clear that our city fathers have added to the riches of our beautiful and picturesque tongue. They are true benefactors of the race, be- cause they have made word spring up where there had been none before. At any rate they have given the sanc- what was only slang before.
 Well, what is a ssgazabo?" A gaZa- bo is gazabo You might as well ask What is a bounderw A bound err is ssbounder.' That is the begin ming and the end of it. It is an elo- quent term of abuse, or reproach, or defiance or irony. It is necessary, be cause no other word is so delightfully."- vague yet definite, so inclusive, yet ex- elusive. At the same time, it is ti- umphantly parliamentary.
 Why, member from the Bronx might call President Formes gazabo, and that worthy and dignifed person would not know what to do. While he pounded with his gavel and shouted order he would have an uneasy feel ing that, after all, the word might have been applied in a perfectly affectionate way.-New York Evening Sun.
