THE GRADE OF BEEF.
Butchers Say ills Repetition Of The Coal
Strike and Almost Any Grade Of Mtat

ers Say they Have Sold Less Meat Dur
Ting Past Week Than in Several Years

Dnring the last two days there
has been no rise in the prices of fresh
meat in this city, and, in the oases
of few butchers, on certain lines of
meat, there has boon decrease Of
n cent or two. This is doubtless
partly due to the lull in tho strike of
the Beef Trust employees in the inter-
i'm preceding temporary agree
ment with the packers.
AT it's highest point, reached three
or four days ago, there had been an
average rise of seven cents per pound
ut the local stores. That the rise mas
had temporary halt has probably
been practically brought about by the
disposition shown by large numbers
of consumers to reduce, in no small
measures. the quantity of meat eaten.
One nnlooked for difficulty. how
ever, Inns risen, and that Is the sale of
beef other than the western product.
Just as in the coal strike, inferior
grades were thrust upon tho public,
SO, in the present aifticulty, quantity

Monday porter-house steak was soll-
ing at twenty-five cents pound. The

butchers soon were alb lo to get ahead
with supply SO that today the price
of porter house steak is eighteen cents

pic do not seem to be making q rush
for it at that price.

A New Tuberculosis Serum.

A London physician claims to have
discovered a new serum with which he
has treated severe consumptive cases
successfully. The principle on which
the doctor worked was to isolate the
specific poison of the disease, and by
injecting this into horses stimulate
them to produce the antidote. One of
the most striking cases which he in
stances was of so-called "galloping
consumption" which came under his
care in the third week Of the disease
Forty-seven Injections of the serum
were given, and in five months the pa
tent was, to all appearance, cured. At
a lecture recently given the physician
showed charts and diagrams illustrat-
ing the great improvement and appar-
ent cure of other cases. Naturally the
best results were obtained from the
acute rather than the chronic cases, as
in the former the destruction of the
lung tissue is least advanced. The gen.
eral feeling at the lecture was that a
prima facie case had been made out
for the new serum, but that exagger-
ated hopes must not be based on it as
vet.

Soap from Fruit of Tree.

In Algeria there is an enterprise I'M
der way to manufacture soap on a
large scale from tree known as "Sa-
pindus Utilus." This plant, which has
long been known in Japan, China and
India, bears fruit Of about the size
of horse chestnut, smooth and round.
The inner part is of a dark color and
has an oily kernel The tree bears fruit
in its sixth year, and yield from IS to
220 pounds of fruit, which can be
easily harvested in the fall. BY using
water and alcohol the saponaceous In
gredieht of the fruit is extracted. Tho
soap, on account of possessing no al
kaline qualities, is said to be superior
to the ordinary soap of commerce.

The front elevation has been kept
