OYSTERS KILLED
BY Placing Them on Their Right Side
They starve to Death.
PHILADELPHIA Record

why does an oyster sleep and i've on
It's left side?" asked a man who is inter-
ested in oyster culture. We'll, I suppose
we will have to put the question to Ma
ture, and Nature has her own way of an
swering questions. I have been around
in the oyster waters Of the Chesapeake
bay and Choptank river for many years,
and am in a position to say that this is
the natural position Of the oyster. may
remark parenthetically that this is one Of.
the difficulties we have to contend with,
for in rebedding oysters and punching
them an oyster is occasionally thrown
upon its right side. and weighted so that
it cannot turn over. It simply dwindles
away and dies by degrees. Put upon its
right side, the oyster cannot live OF
course, there is an explanation Of this
popularity. The right-han part Of the
oyster shell is the top and movable part.
If the oyster is put in its natural position
that is, on Its left side-it requires but
a small amount of physical energy to open
and raise the right-hand section OF the
shell when the oyster wants to feed. Re-.
verse the position and put the oyster
on the right side and we find an extreme.
" difficult problem from the oysters
standpoint In order to open the shell
for feeding purposes 1t is necessary for
the oyster to raise not only the weight
Of the left section Of the shell, but its
own weight as well. II we reverse. the
its right-hand side and wedge 1t SO it
can't turn over we simply smother and
starve 1t to death. OF course, I am just
theorizing about this thing. There may
be some other explanations OF the left
handed life OF the oyster, but from my
experience am inclined to think the
explanation given is a reasonable one

DENCEs RETURNING CONFIDENCE

PENNSYLVANIA BOND SYNDICATE EV1.
DENCES RETURNING CONFIDENCE
AND ACTIVITY.
The Wall street Summary says: Nothing of
greater interest has occurred recently in the
financial world than the formation Of the syndi-
cate to underwrite SIC, 1000, 900 Of per, cent
bonds to be issued by subsidiary companies Of
the Pennsylvania railroad system. 1t Is the
first under taking of the kind that has been at
tempted in many months. 1t is significant:
First-Of the improvement in the market for
frst-class bonds, in which category the proposed
issues will have unquestioned place, and of the
belief of competent judges that such improve
ment is not a merely ephelneral or temporary
condition. Second-Of prospective improve
ment i'll the money market 30 that the bonds
may be marketed by the syndicate on lower In
come-yfeld1ng basis than those of which it is
reported they have been underwritten. Third
or the resourcefulness of the Pennsylvania rail-
road management In providing ways and means
Tor carrying, out its vast scheme of improve
ments without loss in raising the necessary
capital and without probable adverse effect upon
any OF Its other security issues.
While the improvement In the bond market
has been widely recognized movement since
attention first called to 1t in these columns,
no more conclusive evidence upon the subject
could be desired than Is afforded by this syn
dicute operation The time may not be far
distant when railroad companies other than the
Pennsylvania will raise new capital to continue
betterment work. which has been more or less
interrupted during the past year, althO doubt
less such financing will be undertaken in the
same conservative spirit which Is manifested in
the present case. The syndicate has until March
L, 1904 to pay for the bonds in full.

VAST SUM
Paid out in Pensions Would Make
Golden obellsk 1903 Feet High.
JIxyepfpp Post

II
Golden obellsk 1903 Feet High.
New York Evening Post.
A cubic foot of coinage gold is worth
$3.50, 977.o92. Pension Commissioners Ware
has computed that the outlay for pensions
since the foundation of the government,
il met In gold would make an obelisk ten
feet square and 1os feet high This Illus
tration, perhaps, gives an idea Of what
three billion dollars means; q billion or
dinarily expresses something Of which the
human mind has little comprehension.
1t Is, worthy Of note that the total cost
Of the pension system from the foundation
Of the government to June 80, 1866, or un-
til the civil war was itself over, a period
Of three-quarters Of a century, amounted
to only s96. 700, or the present dis
bursem ent for eight months and nine days.
This Is an example Of the magnitude Of
modern operations. Pensions for the reyo-
lutionary war have cost up to date only
S7o,O00,000, and as there are only five
revolutionary pensioners now on the roll,
the chapter is nearly closed. This revo-
lutionary total represents about six
months expenditure to-day.
The war Of 1872, which has continued as
ar active charge until the present time,
has cost only s45,000, 000, It's pensioners
include one participant and 1,115 widows.
Were the 1912 pensioners to have a re-
union, poor Hiram Cronk Of Ava. Oneida
county, N. T., would be rather lonesome
among 50 many women. He is now lob
years old. The last survivor Of the revo-
luton died in 1889 at the age of 1Os.
It may be regarded as general truth in
pension records that the widows last
thirty years longer than the participants
OF any war. BY widow should generally
be understood in pension nomenclature
all OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES except actual
participants For the war Of 1872, how
ever, practically all Of the dependents car
ried on the roll are actually widows.
Indiana, with smaller population than
Massachusetts,, still draws twice as much
in pensions. Ohio is far ahead of New
York, standing at the head Of the list
with receipts Of s15,0Q0,O00, or one ninth
Of the total. She has about one eighteenth
of the population.

that there will be, no such financial crisis this

Fright.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
New York, Nov. 3.-Mrs. Elizabeth
Forsheischer of $40 Madison street,
was frightened to death last night by
the sudden appearance in her room
at Gouverneur hospital Of an owl
which flew In by a window and perched
on the bedstead at her head.
Mrs. Forsheischer was taken to the
hospital yesterday afternoon and put
in a ward on the top floor. The win
dow was open, and about 8 o'clock a
large gray owl suddenly flew in and
alighted on the woman's bed.
Mrs. Forsheischer began to scream
and several attendants ran in and tried
to capture the bird. 1t flew wildly
about, futtered into the corridor and
from one floor to another, with the
attendants in hot pursuit.
Finally it was captured in the kitch-
en- by a nurse and imprisoned under q
big basket.
When they went back to Mrs. Fors-
heischer the attendants found her dead
from the shock.
