 It depends a good deal upon. the weather, but this is the normal prefer ence, says the mixers of the soda fuur- tains, to a Chicago Inter Ocean reporter The warmer the weather the sodrer the fiavors demanded by the public. On a hot, rnuggy day, there is great run on lime juice and phosphates of all fiavors On just comfortably warm days, chocolate, strawberry and all the sweet fiavors are in demand.
 Ice cream soda is not liked so much as it was few years ago. Among the fancy soft drinks egg phosphate is the favorite.
 Every year few new ''health drinks" are sprung They rarely fast more than season. Sometimes. after rest of a year or two, health drink that has run it's course is put out again under another name

On the northern shores of Long Island sound, nearly opposite Oyster Bay. stands little house which is probably unique in appearance and situation. It is square.bu structure of stone, and rests upon arches between two cliffs, so that when the tide comes in the water flows under it to the landing of stone steps Tn storm the spray dashes over the building, and in calm weather the water laps under and around it unceas- ingly, and the sound of it never stops. It's pier is like steamers deck at sea. In this ssdei1" MT. Irving BachelleI writes.
 He has no special methods for work. Rising early every morning, he dives off his small dock into the sound for swim and divides his day between work, golf, fishing, or long walks with an extremely intelligent collie, of which he is very naturally proud He does his writing whenever the mood is on, and if the in- spiration continues he works far into the night in his boat-like study, and sleeps there rather than return to the house and disturb his family. There is an immense fireplace in the den, and in cold weather wood fire burns there al- ways, cracking and sputtering, and fi1l- ing the little room with good cheer Around him are many books. They are on the tables, the chairs, the lounges, even the floor Over the door is the mounted head of caribou which he shot in Newfoundland last year. Another ornament of the study is the violin that belonged to the crazy musi- elan who played so ,divinely in Eben Holden. He was real character, so we'll known that when the novel appeared Mir Bacheller had a letter from Mayor Charles D. Bingham, of Watertown, N Y, where the musician died. He had died a pauper, wrote MT. Bingham, with no property but his violin. which had been rallied for s32 to pay his funeral expenses. It was won by Canadian and lost sight of; but the mayor became So

interested on reading Eben Holden that he instituted search for the instrument, bought it, and sent 1t with his compli- ments to Mr Bacheiler.
 Mr. Bacheller was born in the little town of Pierpont, N. Y, on the edge of the Adirondacks, and was graduated from St. Lawrence university. He be- gan life as ajournalist, and his first fame was earned from his association with the Bacheller syndicate, of which he was the founder. But a serious literary im- pulse was latent in him and needed only the right inspiration to develop into ac- ion The inspiration came in this way. About the year 1892, a certain group of bright newspaper men, among them Stephen Crane and Irving Bacheller used to meet for recreation and mutual enjoyment on the roof of a quaint old building in district of New York known as Monkey hill. They called themselves the Lantern club, because lanterns sym belize enlightenment, and because they were used to illuminate the club itself. Among their diversions was the custom of writing stories and sketches to be read aloud at the meetings. Free criticism brutally fTee-was expected and offered, and in this honest if rough school some very fine literary training was given and received. Both Crane and Bacheller be- gan to do serious work as the direct re- suit of the meetings Of the Lantern club. MT. Bacheller had two books to his credit, neither of which had been espe- cially successful, when one day friend said to him: "If vOli could nit inc human interest you get into your poems and sketches into book of fiction, aid along the same general lines, you'd make big success" Next summer he wrote a novel "on the same general lines" and the result was Eben Holden.
 He himself Is in the early prime of life. A man of great stature and strength, he is profound nature-lover and a devotee of outdoor life. An old friend of his, who has accompanied him on numbers of his frequent excursions into the north woods, said recently: T have been in the woods with many a man, but there isn't one ever knew who was in such absolute sympathy with nature, and so completely indifferent to his own com fort-in short, such good woods com panion. He seemed to love every bloom ing thing that grows or could move or speak-that means ferns and animals and men. He had way of getting in touch with the guides and bringing out every characteristic they had. He'd work with them, and do more than his , share every time. And everybody liked him."

The BoStons Suffered De-
 feat Yesterday and New l York Forged Ahead Re-
 suit of Games.

Washington, Sept 20.-Oyer- anxiety on the part of the Highlanders to clean up the, earth with the Senators in yesterdays game came near turn ting a sure victory into defeat. The victorious career of the coming worlds lchampions was almost checked after tthe game had practically been packed laway in salt.
 The Highlanders had garnered four lhard earned runs, all made through 1legitimate, straight baseball, when ihard luck broke into the game in the isevent1 inning and almost put the visitors completely to the bad in the succeeding two innings. The Sena- tors got three runs in these two in nings that were pure gifts when they should have been shut out, to 0.
 Ganzel got twisted twice in his att tempts to make quick plays in the seventh inning, giving men first in safety when they should have been iehsy outs. Mcclure lost another easy Iout by too much coaching from the Rinfelders and two runs resulted, The 5Senators received their third run as < n gift on Stahls fine bunt in the eighth inning, which Conroy hopeless ly tried to turn into an out and threw the ball into the bleachers, allowing Stalhl to make the circuit.
 Hard hitting gave the Highlanders two runs in the first inning. Dough- }erty doubled and Keeler sacrificed. {Elberfeld hit for two bases, scoring Dougherty. Conroy fouled to Clark, but Williams walloped the ball to left and Elberfeld tallied.
 Tn the fourth inning Williams sin gled and so did Fultz. Ganzel crossed the plate on Powell's single.
 Daring and successful base-running gave. the Highlanders a. run, in the fifth Keeler was passed and was forced by Elberfeld. Conruy also walked and was forced by Williams. Williams stole second and Elbeffeld beat the throw back to the plate by remarkable slide.
 Willie Keeler made a remarkable catch in the third inning. He picked Townsend's fly off the right field fence with one hand after lodging several fence posts to get the ball. The score:
