seemed to enjoy the voyage until the
soup pot claimed them.
Eggs to the number of Il. 900 were in
that larder, and 700 pounds of butter,
160 gallons of fresh milk, go quarts of
cream, 500 quarts of condensed milk
and 700 quarts of ice cream.
Among the dry stuffs were 1900
pounds of coffee, $40 pounds of tea,
1000 pounds refined. 600 pounds gran
ulated and 452 pounds moist sugar.
The vegetable department contained
IL tons of potatoes and thousands Of
barrels of kitchen garden produce,
There were also 80 barrels of apples,
so boxes of oranges and enough grapes
and choice fruit TO feed an army.
These are but few of the principal
contents of the larder of compares.
lively small liner, which has seen many
years of service.
The storekeeper has charge of the
provisions. He knows what goes in and
is taken out of the huge refrigerators,
and keeps a strict account of every
thing that is used. When the chief
steward makes out the daily menu he
gives copy to the butcher and the
various chefs. They in turn submit
list of the materials needed for the
meals for that day. and are handed an
order on the storekeeper, who then
distributes the supplies, exacting a
signed receipt from each chef.
The contractors who cater to the
larders of ocean liners are obliged to
furnish the very best quality of food
stuffs that can be procured in the mar
ket. The magnitude of their task can
be imagined when it is taken into con-
liberation that the largest liner afiost
uses 1,2o0 tons Of food in single year.
The meat consumed in this period
amounts to about 400 tons; the pouI-
try and game number co 900; the fish
represent As tons; flour, 2so tons; cof-
Zee, 25 tons; milk, 10000 gallons, and
100000 eggs.
In view Of these facts, il will be seen
that those who intend to cross the At
lantic run no risk of starvation. and
that the larder Of the modern ocean
1ner may be called the glutton's para
disc.

LoUBET RETURNS HOME.

Leaves London Amid Shouts of "LOng
Live the President"
LONDON, July 1O-President Lou
bets visit to London was brought to
a close when the French visitor left the
Victoria station for Dover. The scenes
and incidents of his departure testified
to how the republican president by his
unassuming dignity and cordial sim
cerity has captured'all classes and won
popular good will.
Crowds lined the route from st.
James palace to the railway station
and British "hurrahs" and French
''vive Loubets" re-echoed through the
streets until the president had entered
the station. Here the nations guest
was met by the king, the Prince of
Wales, the Duke of Connaught, Lord
Lansdowne, Premier Balfour and other
notables.
King Edward grasped NJ. Loubet's
right hand and shook it with extreme
cordiality
After renewed handshaking his
majesty showed the president into the
royal car and stood chatting with him
until the train pulled out amid cheers
and shouts of "Vive Loubetf' mingled
with the strains of the ''Marseillaise. f"
President Loubet stood at window of
the car waving his hat in his gloved
hand until the royal special disap-
peared from view.
Upon his arrival at Dover M. Loubet
embarked on the French cruiser Gui-
chen and the vessel sailed at once for
Calais, escorted by British torpedo
fiotilla and followed by salutes from
the feet and castle.

THE MOSQUITO PEST.
In Swarms They Sing to and Prey
Upon Jerseyites.

In Swarms They Sing to and Prey
Upon Jerseyites.
NEW YORK, July 10.-From many
points in New Jersey and from prac-
tically every section of Long Island
come reports of swarms of mosquitoes,
more numerous and more ferocious
than ever known before. In Long Is
land the pest is smaller than hereto
fore, and means of protection usually
effective have failed. In New Jersey
town authorities are planning an en-
ergetic scientific warfare to obtain re-
lief.
Newark residents for several days
have been suffering from a particularly
severe plague of mosquitoes. They are
of a small, dark variety, more vicious
and numerous than any previously
known there, and at night come into
the city from the meadows in clouds.
The local board of health is preparing
to begin the work of determination by
ditching about 500 acres of meadows
and thus destroying the breeding
places.
Reports from many sources indicate
that within the last few days myriads
of the tiny pests have been swarming
in clouds from Montauk point to Long
Island City. Natives who have with
stood the annual mosquito campaign
for years without murmur have ca
pitulated before the present onslaught,
while newly arrived summer guests at
the many summer resorts are in des-
pair.
Fifty members of Brooklyn regf-
ment now encamped on the shore Of
Lake Ronkonkoma, N. Y, before they
had chance to pitch their tents were
attacked by myriads of mosquitoes.
They were kept busy during the night
smoking the enemy out of the tents.
The soldiers will leave the place.

BUILDINGS BURNED.
Fire Rages on Farm Near Port Reading
Nelghbo,s Work Hard.

Fire broke out in a barn on Theo-
dore .Leber's farm near Port Reading
on Wednesday night about 11.8O
O'CLOCK. 1t was discovered by one of
his men who slept in building near
by. He called Mr.. Leber and then
ran to the stable and saved some of
the cattle and horses. A valuable
driving horse was lying down and
every means was used to get him out,
but it was impossible. He and two
COWS were burned.
In the meantime q number of neigh
bors appeared and worked heroically,
but it seemed impossible to stop the
rush of the flames they leaped from
building to building. AS it approach
ed the buildings near the house, the
men tore of boards from the nearest
building and by the times the flames
reached it, they had it almost down.
Buckets of water were thrown on the
roof of the house and the fire did not
harm it, The carriage house was
also saved.
An alarm was sounded and tele-
phone call was sent to the firemen at
Carteret, but they were directed the
wrong way and the buildings were
almost destroyed when they reached
the scene. Two wells were pumped
dry and an unused one had to be
brought into service by means of a
rope.
A word of praise should be given
the Italians and Hungarlans as we'll
as the American citizens who worked
as for their lives.
The farm hand, who gave the alarm,
lost $17 and all of his clothing except
those that he wore. He was slightly
burned.

FACTS ABOUT FRUIT.
HuckIeberries are Ripening too Fast
Plenty of BIackberries.

Swamp huckleberries are very plentl-
full and ripening early and very fast.
Too fast the pickers think, and they
say. the crop will soon run out on that
~ Z. They hold them at two
quarts for quartey or fifteen cents a
single quart.
Blaokberries are rather small, but
plentiful and very sweet and OF ex-
cellent flavor. Some parties are SELL
ing them at eight cents per quart. No
doubt but the larger berries will
bring better price as some of the
berry pickers think eight cents too
little.
A few ripe tomatoes have been pick
ed by one of the farmers near the
borough and Mr.. bingham. of the
Heights, has already sold some very
fine early beeJs to one of the vege-
table men who supplies people in the
borough with vegetables. So the
farmers are not doing so badly not
withstanding the peculiar weather we
have had Peaches are a failure, it
rs said, and the birds have helped
themselves to most Of the cherries.

THE JEWISH PETITION.


Roosevelt Wants the Issue Entirely
Outside of Manchuria.
WASHINGTON, July 10.-The presi-
dent has decided that the matter of the
Jewish petition must be finally dis
posed of before any further effort is
made here to compose the issues aris-
ing out of the Manchurian situation.
Therefore it is now said that nothing
is likely to be done in regard to Man
churia until next September, by which
time, according to the last Russian en-
gagement, the evacuation of Manchu-
ria by Russian troops, save railroad
guards, should be complete.
1t is understood that the Russian gov
ernment has set up as one reason for
not sanctioning the opening of new
ports In Manchuria the necessity of al
lowing her first to complete the evacu-
alton of Manchuria, and although the
reasoning is rather obscure ON that
point it is understood that our gov
ernment is willing to wait until Sep
tember before making the next move.
