BIG OCEAN BREAKWATER.
Government Is Building One $500 Feet
Lonq.

San Pedro, Cal, is about one hun
dred miles north of the Mexican boun-
Diary, and a few miles south of Los
Angeles. When California had to
have a new harbor somewhere,
board of government engineers, in
1897, decided that San Pedro had the
best natural advantages for construct
ing one. The result of their work
shows that harbor can be built al
most anywhere, if enough money is
expended. Congress appropriated 81
900. 600 for the San Pedro breakwater,
extending $500 feet in length in the
ocean, and for dredging behind it.
The breakwater is a sort of con-
tinuation Of Point Fermin, to the east
ward. was planned to comprise two
straight arms, connected by a curve,
1900 feet long of $40 feet radius, the
westerly arm to be 5000 feet long and
the eastern arm 1900 feet long. A
gap of 1000 feet was left between
it and the shore, but this gap was
crossed by railway of tremendous
strength, to enable the contractors to
dump rocks for the breakwater.
The total amount of rock required,
according to the government specifi-
cations, is 2,2o6,9S3 tons, of which it
Is estimated 10000 are yet to be put
in place For some time the contrac-
tors have been dropping rock at the
rate of $4,000 tons a month, or four
tons minute, at cost of s0.SS4
ton. At the beginning the dumping
took place in twenty-five feet of
water; today the contractors are max
ing bigger splashes in fifty-two feet OF
water The rocks are often so large
that only two of them can be put on
one car. There is a year and half
of dumping ahead, but already a har-
Dor of refuge is formed, where vessels
can lie in safety in all sorts of wealth

water.-New York Tribune.

Land Boom After War.

Ever since the Japanese-Chinese
war prices in Manchuria have been
advancing. In land there has been a
'boom" Small tracts that were pur-
chased a few years ago for small
sums are now being disposed of at
small fortunes. Desirable tracts in
the foreign settlement sell as high as
$4,000 and $4,000 gold per acre.
Following are some comparisons in
land values in gold per square foot.
These figures show a decline in values
following the Boxer troubles and con-
tinuing until the Japanese got the up
per hand: 1902, $115; 1908, rs cents;
1904, 60 cents; 1905, s335. A parcel
of good residence building land which
was bought for $1,000 gold three years
ago was recently sold for S15,40
gold. The advance in prices had been
very marked during the present year
$1,000, particularly after the battle of
Mukden.
One of the oldest foreign residents
of Newshwang has been paying for
years SIT gold per month for small
one-story house This summer an en-
terprising Japanese merchant offered
5000 for the premises. A Japanese
shipping firm located on the "bund"
is paying over 5000 gold per month
for very ordinary double Office and
store-room building which for the past
ten years did not net the owner $25
gold PER month.-Consul-General Sam
mons's Report from Newchwang.

..~ szurainq Our Deserts.

What to do with our deserts in the
southwest has long been a puzzling
problem, which the department of ag-
riculture is trying to solve by import
ing plants of economic usefulness that
thrive in extremely dry regions of the
Old World Experiments in this line
are being made with the pistachio
nut, which as has been found, when
grated upon wild stocks obtained
from the Sahara Will endure heat and
draught almost without limit Choice
varieties of date palms, ALSO have
been fetched from the Persian Gulf
and from Saharan GASES, and planta-
tions of them are being started. We
import 100000 worth of dates annu-
ally, which might just as well be pro-
duced in this country, and there is no
reason why we should not grow super
ior kinds, which are never seen on
this side of the water, such as the ia
nous Neglect Moor, Some of our des-
erts are far dryer than the Sahara,
but are all the better for dates on that
account remark especially appli-
able to the Colorado Desert, in south
western California, which, most of it
being below the level of the sea and

The late Bishop Peck, of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, once found
himself in an awkward position, which
a writer in the Boston Herald de
scribes.
While presiding at a session of the
New Hampshire Conference he was en-
tertained by a Mrs. Brown, who had
q high reputation as a cook. She was
especially famous for her mince pies,
and at supper the bishop, who enjoy
ed good living, as his strong frame
and three hundred pounds indicated,
did full justice to large piece Of the
delicious pastry.
"lIay l give you another piece?'
asked Mrs. Brown.
AS the bishop was to make the chief
address of the evening, he regretfully
declined.
Il know some mincc pies are indi-
gestible, but mine are quite harm
less" said Mrs. Brown, persuasively.
SO the bishop yielded, and had a sec
ond piece, and after that a third.
Evening came, and the large church
was packed with people. The hour for
service arrived, but the bishop had
not appeared. The elders looked anx-
iOus. The choir sang, and the prelim-
mary services were well started; then
two or three went out to look for the
absent bishop.
They found him at Mrs Browns
writing in the agonies of indiges-
ton, resulting from indlscreet indul-
gence in harmless" pie. AS the min
listers saw their well-loved bishop lying
in his bed and grooming with pain, one
of them said:

groans. Il am not afraid to die, but

They Wear a Mask.

Nearly every shUpkeeper in the land
is forced. in the conduct of his bust
ness. to wear the mask of diplomacy.
This was illustrated the other day in
downtown art store.
An elderly lady, connected with
some of the best families, made her
purchases and paid small sum on ac-
count Of a former bill and the goods
lust bought AS she placed the new
bill in her reticule she said to the at
tentive shopkeeper:
.'Now-er-no bothering me about
this. you know; no sending around to
nv place. If you do send a man I'll
set the dog on him.
You'll have no trouble about 1t,
madam" was the suave answer Take
your time about it; all the time you
want" and he smiled like a seraph
until the old dowager's coach rolled off
ND the street Then he turned to a
friend who was taking it all in and
muttered:
"Durn her old picture, l won't see a
red cent of that money in nine months.
But what can you do? You've got to
be polite"
