HOW TO KILL TIME.

A Discussion of Methods of Amusement
 Aboard Ship for the Philippines.
 Several army officers who are to sail for the Philippines within the next six weeks. were talking about the methods to kill time while they were aboard ship.
 Il am going to get a copy of the Ko- ran and read it. said one. who is go- ing to the Moro country. "I want to find cut just what these people believe. Maybe I'll become a MOhammedan while l am there"
 Well. you had better keep that idea away from your wife said another. m teach you bridge whist while we are going over"
 Cant we get up a game of golf?' asked one who is an enthusiast over the game.
 "Shufle board is about the limit Of exercise games" remarked another.
 Cards are about the only solace on one of those long trips" said one officer.
 You'll be mighty lucky if you can get up a game of solitaire toward the end of the voyage" said one who was not going. You will be so cussed tired of each other that you won't want to see any one. e.''-Washington Post.

SEA ANEMONE.
New York Aquarium Gets a Big Speci-
 men from Jersey.

men from Jersey.
 A sea aaemone, which the New York Aqusi 'uin has lately received from the fishing banks off the Jersey coasr, is as
 big as any specimen previously obtain
 cd from ttat locality. Distended. tfis
 giant which while changing color more
 or less ;:on tiIc to time, :s commonly of crushed strawberry hue, i3 from
 five and one-half to six inches across
 the base. and from eight to ten inches fn height, while across its upper disk and outspread tentacles it measures
 about ten inches With its tentacles
 drawn in and trunk partly collapsed 1t
 somewhat resembles a very big orange.
 Sea anemones caught on the fishing
 banks are fished up from there with
 hook and line The anemone enfolds
 the baited hook with its tentacles. and
 when the fisherman pulls the anemone
 up there is likely to come with it the
 stone to which it had been attached.
 Commonly the anemone thus caugh:
 is more or less hurt by the hook; but
 this big one was absolutely uninjured.
 This is easily accounted for. It had
 been taken on a hook baited with the elbow part of a blue crabs pincer claw.
 With the hook thus covered, the sea anomene suffered no harm from it; and
 when the hook was drawn out of it the shell covering that had thus protected it remained in the sea anemone's inter for.
 A day or two after it was received here this big sea anemone elected the fragments of the blue crabs claw. and also the shells of two skinner clans which it had somehow caught on its
 own account. Big sea anemones like this one catch small crabs that may | happen to walk across them, and they
 manage also to catch shrimp. The ap- petite of this sea anemone is very good l Two days after it was received there was fed to it. removed from its shell an oyster two and a half inches long | The sea aaemone took this in promptly This giant sea anemone is in tank on the gallery tier of the aquarium's salt
 water side.
 4 big amphiuma, not the biggest that | ever was. but the biggest one ever seer | here-it is about two and half feet | lcng-has now been placed on exhibi- ton in a gallery tank on the fresh wa ! ter side. The amphiuma is an amphi- bian. In it's general appearance it much ! resembles the eel: but while il has nc ! fins whatever it has four rudimentary legs. each with three toes.-New York

THE AGE OF CONVERSION"

A student of church statistics gives in the Rams Horn the result of his ob- serVations in a large number of cases of religious conversions" It is found that r is the age at which religious interest most ccmonly begins, and it rarely begins after 19. Conversion Oc- CUTS most frequently between Is and IS. A similar conclusion is reached by the London Church Quarterly. which fixes the age limit Of conversion at from 10 to 9. According to both aU thCrities the most common motive is the social relations. Other motives are conviction of sin, fear of death and hope of heaven.

KANSAS CITY REVIEW
The Condition of the Live Stock
 Market Last Week.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 12.-Last Mondays marnet was the best of the week, prices tending downward after that. and closing the week 20 to 90 cents lower. Outside markets were like wise lower, and although bids were un- satisfactory in most cases, everything sold except a few range steers, as there was little incentive to forward ship ments. Declines were general and in- cluded all classes. Best fat native steers brought $5.15, and top westerns Si.S0. Best feeders sold up to $4.25, and most western cows sold around S2 90 to S3.15. Veal calves took a big slump. and are S1.O0 to $1.50 cheaper than ten days ago. and bring around sl.50 for the best. Total run last week amount ed to 26.95S head against 53,552 head the same week last year.
 YestrrTay's run was 6,000 head, ln- cludius z 900 Texans, and the market was fully steady, and more active than any cay since last Monday. In many cases prices are better than the low time las- week, and the situatIc;i to-day is better than the close of lest week initiated
 The sheep and lamb market went from bad to worse last week, and prices went off 70 to T5 cents. Receipts here at Kansas iCty have been running light, 11.950 last week, and packers were paying liberal prices up to Wed nesday, when a serious break in the east gave them an opportunity to take off big slices, which they followed up in like manner the balance of the week. Feeding and stock sheep, however, sell very well. considering the low prices paid for killing stuff. Choice lambs bring around $500. shorn yearlings s4.75, wethers $40. ewes $3.5O, stock ewes S2.75, feeders S3.cO. and feeding lambs S3.lO

SHIPS TAKE ACRES or PAINT.

So great is the size of a modern trans Atlantic liner that the total area to be covered every time it is painted runs up into the acres. Thus to entirely paint the top sides of a big steamer from water line to rail calls for enough paint to cover an acre Oi surface. About as much more is required to paint the upper works. while the big smokestaCks call for over hali an acre of paint, and in the case of the Ger man steamships with four smokestacks the total area must be nearer three quarters of an acre. Since the great ships of the first class companies are painted every voyage, the calculation shows that to keep the one hundred or SO vessels Of the International Mer- Cantile Marine company in first-class shape requires the painting of about 2.z5O acres each year at cost of be- tween $25O,OOO and S5OO,OOO.
