The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-07-03

Innunerable stories are told of
clever women who make fine incomes
during the summer as entertainers at
resorts, but it remained for club Of
half dozen young men to solve the
summer vacation problem on new
lines last summer.
They went to one of the most fash
ionable Atlantic coast resorts and Sc
cured board at all inexpensive cottage
The fare proved anything but salts
factory The boys had set aside a
certain amount of money for board
and another sum for boating, fishing
and other aquatic pleasures. They
did not wish to cut into the latter
fund, neither did they feel satisfied tc
remain at the boarding house
At the end of their second day al
the beach. the leader of the party
called upon the, manager of the most
fashionable hotel along the ocear
front Frankly explaining their posi-
tion-incidentally ii should be men
toned that he wore his best raiment-
the proposition which lie made the
manager was this:
If the latter would make them {
reasonable rate of board-in fact, nc
more than that which they were pay

agree in return to make it pleasant

burning SUM- The cabins are cubby

sengers there always is fair proper

ing most infrequently, and sleeping,
with boots and coats on, on the cots
and wall seats whenever the mood
strikes them, day or night.
All the time while the boats are I'M

does not use lead, as do the Missis-

Cossack Villages.
At intervals the steamers stop at
villages. Most Of these are built of
wood and are settled by Cossacks, for
the Cossack is the man whom the
Russian Government has sent all
through this part of Manchuria and
Siberia to make nucleus for popu-
lation
The people usually meet the boat
with all kinds of fresh food, like fruit,
caviar, cheese, milk and bread. There
is always a rush to buy, for after
about three days of travelling by the
Imperial mail on the Amur the APP

A Good Summer Drink.

An excellent summer drink which
is very popular in England. and might
be drunk to larger extent in this
country. is rhubarb wine.
For rhubarb wine it is necessary to
have ripe rlubarb. Into one gallon OF
boiling water put eight pounds OF rllu-
barb, in thin slices: place in pan, and
cover closely with thick cloth or
blanket and stir three times a day for
a week. Then strain through cloth.
and add four pounds Of lump sugar,
the juice of two lemons and the rind
of one.
To 'hnes the wine, take one ounce
of isinglass and one pint of liquor and
dissolve at a slow heat. Add to the
rest of the liquor when quite cold an5
cask it. Do not bung the cask unit
the fermentation is over. The qualit,
of this wine improves very much will

TRANSFERRING
OVER a SHEOAL

anchor. and crew and passengers wait
with true Russian resignation for
enough rain to fall in the upiands
Of the Shi1ka, thousand miles away,
to produce water sufficient to float
them.
The steamers have the general out
ward appearance of Mississippi River
boats, but the resemblance ceases
there. Some of them are Side wheelers
and some are stern-wheelers. Many of
them tow immense hatboats behind,
loaded with immigrants or deck pas
sengers If a time comes when the
steamer cannot cross some bar or
shoal, owing to low water, the immi-
grants are calmly dumped out any
where along shore and sit down
to wait from an hour to day
while the cabin passengers are trans
ferred on the fiat boat to steamer
beyond the shoal. AS this transfer IS
accomplished by the primitive method
of pulling the fatboat along shore at
the end OF rope, progress is SO slow
that the passengers usually set UP
housekeeping Ell route, for the Rus
sian mail service is somewhat negli-
gent as to meals and other comforts
during such episodes.
The passengers are divided into
first and second cabin and deck pas
sengers. The latter have to live, eat
and sleep on the sheet iron decks
There are no awnings or other cover
ings. Indeed, on many of the boats
there are no awnings for the cabin

9HE lucky writer of a popular
song can usually make for
u tune out of it, if he possesses
ordinary business talent; and
the public is often surprised to read
of the large sums netted by the COM
poscrs of such catchy tunes as Be
della" and Navajo" Yet many of
the best-known songs composed in
America brought little or no money
to their authors.
Stephen Collins Foster was the
greatest song-writer America has pro-
duced. For more than fifty years no
songs have been more popular than
his the world over; no songs have
touched more human hearts. He COM
posed the words and music of MY
Old Kentucky Home" "The Old
Folks at Home" "Old Uncle Ned
"Massa's in the Cold, Cold Ground,
Come Where My Love Lies Dream
ing" and many other songs that are
familiar as household words.
Even in his own day his songs had
an immense sale and ought to have
made him wealthy. But he lived poor
and died poor. He had no idea oi
business. He gave away most of his
best songs to friends, who published
them; Others he sold to publishers fol
ridiculously low figures. In some
cases he let publishers have the song:
for nothing, and was content will
his fame and popularity, while the,
were coming a rich harvest of gold.
Septimus Winner, the author o
Listen to the Mocking Bird" "Wha
Is Home Without a Mother?" am
other famous songs, made very littl
money out of them. He sold 9TH

work, to a firm of publishers for S.

him nothing more.

VROM Vladivostock to Khaba.
- rovsk on the Amur River the
l. distance by railroad is 72I
miles. The distance in time is
d little over two days and nights. The
Russian railway is not lightning ex-
press.
Still, that is the easiest way to
strike the Amur in the East The city
of Khabarovsk is really the head of
important navigation on this Missis-
sippi of Manchuria. There is a port.
Nicoloievsk, many hundred miles
northeast, ON the Sea of Okhotsk, but
only persons with business in that
particular, melancholy part of Siberia
are likely TO make start from there.
The mass of the Annr pilgrims start
from Vladivostok
There is only one thing which gives
the traveller comfort when he is en-
barked on the greenish-yellow Amur
and its wierd Imperial mail steamers.
1t is that he has left behind the deadly
dullness, overlaid with mighty and
sticky yellow mud, of Vladivostok.
The Amur River is, at least a relief
in that it flows through grandly for
ested country. 1t won't stay forested
long, for the locomotives and the
boats of the Russians are all fired with
wood; and the rapacity OF the Sihc-
rian wood thieves is equal to that of
the Chinese, which has made China an
ugly bare land.
In some parts Of the region through
which the Ussuri Railroad crawls to
Khabarosvk the engineers did not
even take trouble to chop down the
trees to make way for the road.
They merely set fire to the woods and
cleaned them off in that happy man
ner
Khabarovsk is no backwoods town.
Although it is away east, where the
bears say good night to each other,
it has fine stone buildings, among
them truly excellent museum. There
are $1,000 inhabitants and, of course,
a whole lot of soldiers. Judging from
the uniforms, the stranger might be
excused for carrying away the idea
that it is inhabited by at least hum
dred generals.
From Khabarovsk to Stretinsk on
the Shilka River, where the travellers
meet the Trans Baikal branch of the
Siberian Railway, the distance is about
fourteen hundred miles The magnif-
cent steamers make the trip in periods
varying from two and half weeks to
four, according to the circumstances
The Amur, like the Mississippi, is
a river OF tickle habits. Sometimes
it tries its best to run dry, and then
ships that have. more than four feet
draught lie up against the bank or al

TIPS FROM THE BAT

The locals will have TO smoke up.
More opportune hitting is what is
needed.
Errors are excusabse, but such baseball
playing as was indulged in during the
sixth inning yesterday is disheartenng
TO the fans.
The rooters are still trying to figure out
what Maher's real intention was when
he bunted with the bases full and but one
man out. Most anything but bunt would
have scored run.
In the same inning Russell stood on the
line near second when Farrell hit safe TO
right centre. instead Of ga,ioping home
with an easy run. IL was apparent 10
everyone IN the grand stand that Mullen
could not possibly get within I'VE yards
Of the ball on a fly.
Those who have attended the Williams
port series think Proud has umpired two
good games.
What is needed is for some one who
knows how to coach 10 get down alone
the third base line. Several runs have
recently been thrown away by stupid
coaching.
Everson pitched a good game.
