With beet sugar factories near

edge in this state of the new industry
is increasing. Says new London
paper of the beets: "They are han
died more like cordwood or some
similar commodity than like vegeta-
bles, many of them being shipped in
open coal cars or "gondolas." The
crop this year is not up to standard
on account of the dry season and as
the beets require good deal of work
in wedding and handling and the
price paid is only $3.50 per ton or
about fifteen cents per bushel, some
growers are not inclined to be en-
thusiastic over the new enterprise.

which come next to the favorite in their
mistress affection, sat for their photo
graphs at Buckingham palace recently
They also have sat at Windsor and
Sandringham to Louis Vain, the great
cat artist, who declares them to be about
the best and most patient sitters he ever
has had. According to the lowest esti-
mate the royal cats now number So Her
special pets are always in residence
where the queen is for the time being.
They have groom all to themselves;
they have bath every morning and
their toilet is carefully attended to twice
a day. On the slightest sign of illness
the royal wet" is summoned, who
makes a careful diagnosis, and the re-
suit is Immediately communicated to
her majesty. There is a specially pre-
pared room called "the cat hospital" in
the stables attached to Buckingham
palace and here pussy reclines-when
indisposed-in bed sufficiently luXuri-
Gus for the baby of a marquis. Its tenn
perature is taken and the stethoscope ap-
piled as regularly as if the fate of au
empire were depending on the cats ex-
istence.
For her cats, when in health, the
queen has prescribed diet of fish anG
milk, and as she is quite unwilling to
trust the discrimination of the ordinary
London milkman as to the quality of this
latter, the royal cats are fed on mill;
which comes fresh from Sandringham
! every morning, while fishdealer of re-
| pute Is intrusted with the supply of the
fish known to be the best for feline con-
sumption. When the queen first took to
cats she knew nothing whatever about
their tastes or habits. She was also ig-
norant of the points of the different
breeds, but Louis Vain, whom she had
presented to her for the purpose, was
able to convey so much information that
now the queen can discuss cats with tht
greatest expert in Europe.
| Among other fashionable cat cultiva
tors may be mentioned Lily, duchess d
Marlborough, the duchess of Wellington
and Viscountess Maitland, each of whom
has n more or less elaborate "cattery.
There is a lot of money made out OF fen
cy cats. Five hundred dollars Is no un
common price to pay for one and SOM
have fetched as high as $1,000. In con
sequence there are not few women Il

tocratic tables is purely, though for tn

ALEXANDRA'S MANY CATS.
Dogs Have Been Supplanted in the
Affections of English Queen
and Her Followers.

To all except the favored few who
are on intimate terms with Queen
Alexandra it came as rather sur
prise when on her arrival in Ireland,
awhile ago, the queen was found to DC
accompanied by pet cat. Heretofore
dog of one breed or another almost in
variably has been numbered among her
travelling companions, and 1t was
known generally that besides being
fond Of bow-wows, she bred them ex-
tensively and was the owner of about
the most luxurious kennels in England;
but she never has been suspected Of any
special liking for cats. Now, however,
these animals have almost entirely sup
planted dogs as recipients of the
queens attention. Her kennels were
the royal lady's delight, but when she
discovered that all sorts of folk were
copying her in this direction, she decided
to stop breeding dogs and go in for cats
instead. True to her customary policy
of thoroughness, the queen now has a
small army of the best breeds, and if any
OF the royal residences contain mouse
the creature must be a veritable DeWet
of its kind.
The queen has six particular fayorites
among her cat family, but a valuable
Persian enjoys her special affection.
This is "Sandy"-who is so named be-
cause he first saw the light at Sandring-
ham. For several months her majesty
has never travelled without him, and he is
as fondly attached to his royal mistress
as the celebrated Irish terrier Jack"
was to the king in his most affectionate
moments. SANDY" is privileged to dis
port himself in the dining apartments,
though his less fortunate brothers and
sisters have to confine their activities
to the other rooms in the royal dwell
ings.
Edward VII. hates cats and If he had
his way SANDY" would not long have
the supposedly reserved for
his kind-of looking at king" but
the liberties that her royal husband de-
manded for his Jack" the queen now
demands for her pet. If the king has no
love for Sandy" however. the feeling
seems to be fully reciprocated, for the
queens favorite will not come to his
side of the table at any price, and gen

THE BIBLE WAS MUCH USED
There Was No Baby Chair in the
House and It Served
Good Purpose.

A minister of one of the leading congre-
cations OF this city was recently making a
call on one of the prominent members Of
his flock and was greeted at the door by the
fveyear-old daughter of the house, who was
doing the honors as hostess in the absence
of her mother, relates the Philadelphia
Press. Spying well-worn family Bible near
at hand, the minister commented on the
fact that there must be good father in the
the Bible to so great an extent.
oh, yes" said the child, papa has us on
the Bible three times day"
"lndeed?.' replied the parson. "How edi-
flying And, pray, what times does your
good father call upon this grand volumne z"
always at meal times" answered the
radiant daughter. "You know, we never
had baby chair in the house so pa just sits
the Bible on a .dining-room chair and that
makes it just high enough for us children
My baby brother Jim sat on it this morning
We all had our turn at it."
