One man that has the handling of
a good deal of milk for Chicago tells
the writer that he has an arrangement
with the doctors in several towns
from which he buys milk. by which
the doctors report TO him the presence
of any contagious disease on any farm
in the locality, whether that farm is
producing milk or not In this way il
is possible for him to know about the
conditions under which milk is being
made for his trade. This he finds to
be a very good plan. In the case of
the contagious disease being on the
farm of a man that is selling him
milk. he can take measures. to prevent
the sending out of that milk. On the
other hand, If the disease Is on the
farm of man that is not selling him
milk. he can serve a notice on the
men that are selling him milk that
they are not to receive the milk from
such a farm. II this practice were
made general 1t would greatly i'm
prove the situation as To the spread
Of contagious diseases by means OF
milk. Cases are constantly coming to
the attention OF the public where some
man that is supplying perhaps only a
very small amount of milk TO the
trade is the means of scattering dis.
ease1 that ravage communities using
the milk. Every man should have too
much conscience to sell milk when he
has a deadly disease in his family, but
actual experience demonstrates that
that is just the time he will sell his
product as a general thing. for the
reason that his needs are greatest at
that time. This phase of human ma
ture must be taken into consideration.

Marie Antoinette Rodlces.

The tendency toward the Marie An
toinette bodice for evening wear is
marked. This style is really fascinat-
ing. with its long, pointed waist line,
and very full skirt shirred into the
skirt band. In white or ivory silk,
the mode is ideal, and by next autumn
it will be firmly established. This
would not appear to admit of any
change in the present full skirts. but
anything. The great dresesmakers,
at least, seem determined to adhere 10
the full modes for some time to come.

At the same time II should not be for
gotten that Massachusetts has done some
wonderful voting in fhe past eight years,
In 1896 when the Chicago platform attack
ed the gold Standard Massachusetts was
thoroughly alarmed and cast 27S GIG votes

lican plurality of 1S8, 49, Four years later
when the scare had s 1esided 1somewhat the
state gave Bryan 68,0f4 more votes than in

Naturally at that time a~large number
of democrats returned to their party allesi-
ance. No doubt others will follow their ex-
ample at the present election Many Of the
Massachusetts democrats who changed
over will remain republicans First voters
of democratic antecedents who started out
as republicans in the last eight years will
remain so and the party should show a
handsome permanent growth in the state at
the November election. This the democracy
cannot overcome this year. There Is no in
dication of republican detection anywhere
the party is harmonious, the machinery
we'll organized for getting out the votes,
the apparent apathy Is equally noticeable
in each party, and the conclusion can hard
ly be avoided that good-sized republican
plurality is certain.

JAPANESE MAKE PEARLS.
Ingenious Method Adopted by the Willy
Orientals,

The customs officials of the treasury have
just passed upon a curious case showing
how the shrewd Japanese are at work
forcing oysters to make pearls. The pearl
bearing oyster of all countries occasionally
turns out rare and valuable pearls, but
they do so at their own leisure. They take
plenty of time, with the result that few
oysters make pearls.
Through human initiative the Japanese
oyster is made to form pearls against his
or her own wishes. Some time ago pearls
were received in this country from Japan
resembling split or half pearls, and the
story came out then. From information
it was found that the pearls were produced
in Japan by boring holes through the shell
of the pearl-bearing oyster and inserting
therein small plug of mother-Of-pearl, the
globular surface of which extends into the
cavity of the she'll

caused by this foreign substance the
oyster coats it with successive layers of
nacre in the same manner that 1t forms
the natural pearl. After period of about
two years the bivalve thus treated is
opened and the pearl that has been form
ed is sawed from the shell. When ex-
tracted 1t is in the form of a half shell.
Though of excellent quality, they are dis
tinguishable by an examination of their
base. They are Of less value than those
produced entirely by natural means.
The collector at the port where they came
in assessed them for duty at 60 per cent
ad valorem. but the importers claimed that
the pearls were dutiable at only 10 per
cent ad valorem, being pearls In their nat
ural'' state and not manufactured" The
board of appraisers in New York have sus-
tanned this view and have assessed the
pearls at only 10 per cent.
The United States Supreme Court has
held that thing that Is manufacturer
is something made by hand, as distinguish
ed from natural growth. In this in
stance the pearls could not be considered
as manufactured" and the willy Jap

SON BORN TO QUEEN HELENA.
He is Named Humbert, Prince of Pied
mont

mont.
A cablegram from Racconigi, Italy. last
night says: Queen Helena was delivered of
son at IL o'clock tonight at the royal
palace here. Both mother and child are do
ing well. The infant has received the name
Of Humbert and the title of Prince of Pied
mont.
Queen Helena is the daughter of Nicholas,
Prince of Montenegro, and was married to
King Victor Emmanuel. then Prince of
Naples. on October "a, 1896. The first child
of the king and queen, girl, Yolande, was
born on June 1, 1901. The second, also a
daughter, Mafalda, was born on November
49, 1902. The birth of a son may be ex-
pected to increase greatly the popularity Of
Queen Helena with the Italians.
1t is said that King Victor Emmanuel had
come to the conclusion that to style his
son and heir Prince of Rome would be
the first place, such dignity would handt-
cap the infant from the very outset Of it's
existence with the antagonism of the
Roman Catholic Church, since the title in it
self would constitute perpetual reminder
of what is regarded by the papacy as an
act Of sacrilegious usurpation, and tend
to interfere with those negotiations that
are now in progress with view to a modus
vivendi between church and state.
Then, too, the title would evoke memo
ries of the Inflated King of Rome, son of
the first Napoleon and of his Austrian con-
sort, the Empress Marie Louisa
The present king himself bore the title of
Prince of Naples until his accession to the
throne. But it was not a popular title, just
by reason of Its being in measure usurped
since 1t served to call attention to the fact
that the late King Victor Emmanuel had
taken advantage of the revolutionary move
ment of Garibaldi against the Bourbon
King of Naples to annex the latter's domin-
ions to his own.
Prince of Piedmont is assuredly the most
appropriate title for the hope of the house
of Savoy. For Piedmont Is, SO to speak
the cradle of its race.
A cablegram from Rome says: The major
1ty of the people approve the action of King
Victor Emmanuel in not choosing the title
of Prince of Rome for the heir of the
throne, born last night, as it would have
mixed the royal family in a party struggle
and would have enbittered the conflict be-
tween church and state at time when the
pope seems to be leaning toward modera-
ton. 1t is believed that the title chosen,
that of Prince of Piedmont, will become
fixed for all time for the Italian crown
prince, as is the title of Prince of Wales
in England.
To celebrate the birth of the heir the
king has granted amnesty TO all deserters
and has also shortened by six months the
terms of imprisonment for certain crimes.
King Victor Emmanuel has received the
warmest congratulations throughout the
Kingdom and also most cordial dispatches
from Emperor Nicholas Emperor William
