sOMK ZINE FIG URING.

Jerome Internoscia, a young lawyer
of Montreal, is going to see what the
law can do for him in compromising
him for a broken heart. And he has
done some fine figuring in calculating
what he thinks it ought to do. He has
sued Vincent Bonelli to recover dam
ages for various pecuniary losses al
legged to have been sustained by the
plaintiff during his courtship Of Mr..
Bonelli's daughter, Miss Annie Bonelli.
Among the losses named by Inter-
noscia is that for time spent in the
young woman's company from the date
on which his marriage proposal was
accepted. August 4, 1902, to January %,
1904, when the engagement was brok-
en-. The total number Of hours is COM
puted at 465, and as Internoscia main
tains that his time is worth So an hour
he asks for $3.50. Expenses in connec-
tion with the courtship are also coun-
ted, such as postage for love letters,
travelling expenses. cost of confection-
cry, music, dinners, papers. photos,
books, engagement ring, sc. These run.
up to $2,s2S.49, and the plaintiff asks
the court to obIige Mr. Bonelli, the IA
Their of the girl, to pay him this sum-
Mr.. Internoscia seems to be deter
mined and minute. Probably his loss
in losing the girl is fully as large as
the amount he has figured out, but per-
haps some Of the items of his bill will
not receive the consideration to which
he will think they are entitled. For in
stance, the one which mentions 1880 as
due him for 465 hours spent in the COM
pany Of the girl. Those were hours Of
pure delight instead Of professional la
Dor, and the fact that he lost the girl
at last didn't turn those hours into
working hours. We shouldn't be sur
prised if Mrs Internoscia didn't get his
claim for those hours allowed.

NV rNAprouArE nAILRoAp.

A French engineer who helped build
the Siberian railroad asserts that the
problem of the transport of food and
ammunition for the army of 100000 re-
CURED by General Kuropatkin is well
nigh insoluble. Such an army, he says,
win need 10000 to 10000 horses. Man
churia is a poor and hostile country.
and eastern Siberia does not grow
enough corn for its population. The lat
ter country could, however, supply the
army with half the cattle and all the
forage it requires. But the bulk of the
enormous quantity of provisions indis-
pensable to that mass Of men and ami
mails must be drawn from western ST.
IBERIA and even from Russia proper.
Assuming that the supplies from east
ern Siberia were forwarded to Kharbin,
by the Shilka. the Amur, and the sun
gari, it would still be necessary to send
fourteen or fifteen trains to Kharbin
daily with provisions, ammunition,
railroad material, etc. This would
make twenty-eight to thirty running
both ways, and he doubts whether the
line could bear such traffic. There re-
mains the possibility of organizing car
riage by road and river. Another en-
gineer who has just returned from
Mukden expresses a very unfavorable
opinion Of the condition of the Trans
Siberian railroad. He concludes from
his own observation that the actual
transport Of troops does not exceed
1000 men per day. He reckons that in
three months not more than 10000 men
were conveyed to the seat OF war. and
that rate, he says, could not be main
tanned. In his opinion, General Kuro-
patkin has not now more than 10000
men, and could not place more than
100000 connbatants in line Of battle.
The Japanese, he says, are perfectly
aware. Of these facts.
It is safe to bet that the Japanese
know just about what the Russians
have done, can do and are doing. Their
war work is the most intelligent yet.

DUTCH DRAFT DOGS.

They Take the Place Of Donkeys in Bel
GUM and Holland.
In Holland and Belgium the dog oc-
cupies the place which the donkey does
in several other countries. In the for
mer the sight of a couple of dogs drag
ging along pushcart loaded with veg
etables flowers or shining milk cans is
a familiar one. They trot along under
meath the cart, within easy reach Of the
blunt toe Of the cabot Of the woman
who walks behind it to guide 1t by ham
dies attached at that point. In Bel
GUM the dogs are hitched in front, as
the Russians attach their horses to
their droskies three abreast and are
guided by pair of rope reins fastened
to muzzle about the nose Of the dog
in the middle. Recently the National
Cart Dog association, organized to re-
generate the original race of Belgian
mastiffs, held its first exhibition of cart
dogs. The Flemish breeders have found
that in crossing the Belgian 1nastiffs
with the Great Danes, with the idea OF
increasing the size of the cart dogs,
and so securing additional strength,
they made a mistake. The result
proved to be animals with weak hind
quarters and disproportionate limbs.
Now they are endeavoring to revive the
original stock.
The women and dogs of these two lit
tie countries are another evidence that
human and canine nature are the same
the world over. When one sees the
uninterrupted Belgian milk woman with
her dogs standing near a well, the wo-
man having battered can slung on
her forearm, one instinctiyely becomes
suspicious. The suspicion is confirmed
when one discovers a policeman detain-
ing at the roadside a pair Of sulky-
faced milkmaids. with their dog team
and cart laden with slender necked
milk ans, while he jots their names in
his little book against a charge of wa
tering milk. When the cart comes to d
standstill the dogs are no longer draft

The Northwestern Miller finds Canada
destined to become formidable rival
of the United States in the expectation
of grain, if it does not take possession
of the foreign market In 1900 the
wheat crop of western Canada was not
over 20,000,0O0 bushels, but in 1903 it was
about SO000,0O0 bushels. A. vast area,
estimated at 43,000,000 acres, is suitable
for wheat. On this area, at Manitoba's
rate Of production, the crop should be
over S0O,000,0O0 bushels, or much more
than the United States produces. The
yield is high in Canada, often reaching
twenty-five bushels to the acre. In 1908
the average was for the United States
1873 bushels per acre, for Minnesota 1871
bushels, for northwest Canada 10 BUSH
els and for Manitoba 1914 bushels. Be-
sides wheat other grains are largely
produced, as, for example, 5O,OOO,O 600
bushels of cats and 100000 of barley.

William G. Laying. a well-known turf
man and proprietor of the Occidental
Horse Exchange, at 246 Third street,
mysteriously disappeared on Saturday
and yesterday his wife placed $4,000
attachment on his property to secure
her interests in the concern. Where
Laying went is a matter OF conjecture.
His domestic affairs are reported har-
monious, his business in a fair w4y and
he had no trouble. so far as is known.
that would cause him to desert the city
in the manner that he did
Attorney Leon Samuels, for Mrs.
Laying, filed the attachment on the
Third street property and a deputy
sheriff visited the place during the af-
ternoon. Mrs. Laying explained that
the action is not with hostile intents
being in no way caused by any domes-
tic disagreement and she insists that
life with her husband has always been
happy. Why he left her without a word
on Saturday she does not know. In
quiry has failed to reveal his destina-
tion and while she does not fear deser-
tion she is apprehensive OF injury to
his property interests during his alb
of other creditors pressing claims, Mrs.
Laying desires to be heard She has
money invested in the business ana
wants to realize from it. Another rea-
son for securing the attachment is thas
the business may go on without inter
ruptiOn from outside sources until
something is heard of the missing man.
In discussing the matter with her at
torney, Mrs. Laying says that she has
not the slightest idea where her hus-
band is. She says that he had always
been extremely kind to her and gave
no hint of any sort that he was about
to decamp.
Laying is we'll known in this
city and has been here for a number
Of years. He has been heavily inter-
ested in turf affairs and has owned
several famous horses. At one time he
was connected with the Breeder and
Sportsman, a turf publication. in an
editorial capacity. The Occidental
Horse Exchange, of which he is now
proprietor, is considered a valuable
piece of property and has been the
scene of many horse auction sales
within the last few years.

SEATTLE. July 5.-Oakland could
not hit Charles Hall this afternoon,
but on the other hand Seattle took

their batting averages.
The total hits against Moskiman was
nineteen, including three doubles and
a triple. Smith led in the slaughter,

Frisk came next with three.
When Frisk does not drop the ball
safe he simply drives it through the
tnhelders. He came near tearing
Devereaux's right leg off in the eighth
inning. but the old red dog stopped
the ball.
Devereaux is playing a great third
and throwing like a shot. The game
was not interesting from a fielding
standpoint, as Seattle kept up a steady
battery all the time and runs were
continually crossing the plate. The
score:
