WEAR ONLY FALSE PEARLS.
French Society Women Are Deter mined Not to Be outshons
 by Americans.

A Paris jeweler tells the New York World correspondent that great ladies of French society feel themselves forced to wear immense chains and collars of pearl to save themselves from being outshone by rich Amer icans. who introduced the fashion. only the pearls are almost always false. though mounted and strung with the most costly real materials. On the correspondent remarking that such a sham was disgraceful. the jeweler said none of the famous American jeveled collars and corsages that astonish on transatlantics and procure them invi- tations to the most exclusive salons and fetes. is genuine, the sole differ ence being that Americans have real pearls. but in their banks at home. while their French copyists can't af- ford any but the imitation.
 Americans" he continued, have a genuine love for splendid iewelry. but are invariably afraid to wear them I know. because they come to me by scores for repairs and notifications.

AN ELECTIVE DESPOT
Higgins Removes Abraham
 Sammons From Office.
CHARGED WITH BEING A CRATER.
sOmcial Report Shows That He Usea e4,7OO For His Own PurPeses," Quotes Governor. "and Was
 Extravagant In Omce."

ALBANY, \. T., Aug. Lon charges of misconduct and malfeasance pre- ferred by the board of supervisors Gov ernor Higgins has removed Abraham Eammons from the office of superin- tendent of the poor of Ulster county.
 The governor in an opinion accom- panying the order of removal says: T do not find that Sammons was an intentional wrongdoer His conception of his duties as public official Is aptly stated in his own words addressed to an inspector of the state board of charities at the county house about the 22d day of January, 1904, to the effect that he did not care for any member of the state board of charities or of the board of supervisors, as he had been elected by the people and was respon- sible to the people only.
 This primitive notion of the public official as an elective despot making a law unto himself to guide his con- duct and relying on personal popu- larity to retain him in power, units Summons for office and compels me to remove him."
 Charges against Sammons were filed with the governor. who appointed Judge Egburt W. Woodbury of James, town commissioner to investigate. The removal is made upon the strength of his report.
 From this report, says the governor, 1t appears that Sammons drew upon county moneys various amounts, az gregating over s4.700. for private pur- poses, not all of which apparently has been returned. He royalty entertained at the county's expense and conducted his office in an exuavagant manner, and the expense of maintaining the county's poor increased S7,000 in . year.

Ways of the Biuebird.

The sweet disposition and gentle. lovable ways of the bluebird are evi- dent even in captivity. In the sum mer of 1898 had the pleasure of care fully studying the habits of old and young in that condition. The old birds were kept in a large bird room with sev- eral other varieties of American birds. The bluebirds were models of good be- havior. not only among their own kind. but in their relations with other birds. The young birds were kept in cages. and with a moderate amount of care and attention became very tame. It was amusing to see them. about inc usual feeding time. arrange themselves on a particular perch. Each bird in order of precedence would take the food from . stick. and if one vas pur- loosely omitted there vas no futteri7g of wings or selfish attempt to obtain the uorsel as it was offered to the next bird.-St Nicholas.

Wilson talked frankly about some phases of the work in his department.
 "what have you to say, Mir. secreta- ", about MT. Jordan's statement that you did not collect new figures on the cotton acreage?"
 "Only this" replied Secretary Will son. "The reports which were received from the departments reporters in the field were placed in the hands of a board I appointed to make new esti- mates from them. The boards estimate differed from the estimate made by Hyde and Holmes by 3la per cent. That 1t is correct believe, but. if it is not, 1t is the report of the field reporters and not of the department. Hitherto, 1t is true. the figures probably have been juggled and changed. but we have eliminated practically any future jugglery of that sort. The situation you understand, was peculiar. We probably never would have discovered what the difficulty was had it not been for the fact that two spectators go, into a quarrel about woman"
 Have you heard anything about Nr. Hyde?'
 Well, he has gone to Europe" re piled the secretary grimly. Il had nc Idea he was going away from the country when he left the department l received a letter from Mrs. Hyde ex plaining that she was responsible ane had insisted that he go away or account of his health. She said ht was in danger of a nervous collapse.
 No, I haven't the slightest idea O resignlng." continued the secretary 'I see NY. Jordan. president of th' Southern Cotton Growers association ls demanding my resignation. Now, haven't a thing to say about Mir. Jor dan. He may say what he please about ne. That his own people do no agree with him. however. is evidences by a telegram which I have just re csived from E. s. Peters, vice presi dent of the Southern Cotton Growers association.

COLLECTING TUaPENTINE.
Substitution of "Cupping' in Place of Boxing" Brings Better
 Results.

The department of agriculture has lust received returns from the tur- pentine region of the United States. showing that one of the comparative .y small devises for helping the farmer that the department is always work. Ing on has borne fruit. It is the mat ter of substituting "cupping" for boxing" in gathering turpentine from the pine forests. This difference in treatment is simply what the name in- dicates that the turpentine is col lected in small earthenware cups in. stead of by cutting boxes in the trees. This looks like small thing in it. self, but the department had to work against a great deal of prejudice to | get it introduced. The departments | agents went to a number of turpen- tine plantations and cupped half the trees at it's own expense in face of the incredulity and scofing of most tur- pcntine producers, who had been years 1 in the business and who thought they knew all about it.
 The returns that have just been pub lished from one of the large planta- l tions where half of the trees were cupped according to the department s directions and half were boxed after the old method. showed that the i cupped trees yielded $1.2S4 per crop, or over 30 per cent more than the boxed tree. The experiment was con- tinued for three seasons, showing that there was no error in the apparent re- suits.
 Another result from the cupping was that only forty-four trees were blown down in the cupped half of the plantation against seventy-eight in the boxed section, and of these only eight of the cupper trees fell because they had been weakened by turpentine
 while of the other half fifty-nine fell because of cutting boxes into them
 The turpentine area, it is said, is
 being reduced each year and leases are costing more. and great many
 pine owners will allow cupping by
 lessees on their trees, while they vii
 not rent their forests at all for box
 ing. The deoartment has made z
 thorough study of the industry ant
 has introduced several Improvements
 in the work of cupping while the ex
 pertinent was being carried on. There
 has been a great deal of prejudice t
 contend against On the part of th'
 negro workmen, but the changes hav'
 made the work quicker and easier s'
 that the workmen who are on piec'
 work rapidly fell in with the depart ment's ideas when they found tha
 they were making greater speed witt
 the new methods.
 The turpentine industry is almos unknown to the people of the north
 but it means great deal to the south ern states, so that while the demor stration in question seems like a , obscure corner for q great govern l ment department to be working in, : is one of those points that the man } people benefited greatly appreciate ' and makes the departments wor easier when they break in" with ne' , and scientific methods to some othe , field of agricultural endeavor.
