New England Foo Affects Sailors, Eyes

From the Boston Transcript.
Many Of the officers of steamships run
Mig in this port are afflicted with a new
disease, which for want of a better name
some of them call the fog eye" 1t is an
Inflammation caused by peering into the
fog, and while painful IL soon passes away.
Never in the memory Of the oldest skip
pers running to this port has the fog hung
so persistently over the waters along the
coast as 1t has this summer. One captain
said that they were compelled to chew fog
every trip his vessel has made 20 Boston
during the last six weeks, and, he comes
10 Boston usually about once q week.
Captain Higgins and the officers OF the
United States Fruit company's passenger
and mail steamer Admiral Sampson, which
arrived at Long Wharf this morning after
a good run from Jamaican ports, were
among those whose eyes were affected by
the fog. Running through fog and trying
to distinguish objects when Ii is almost
impossible TO see a vessels length away
is a heavy strain on the eyes and the fog
combined with the heat produces a smart
ing sensation.

said 10 be excellent, with a PARKWAY
flavor Of rabbit, but many diameters more
savory. Still, monkey eating Is cannibal-
ism, II our ancestors really were arboreal
In their habits.

In Africa swore that baked elephants
foot was a dainty dish to set before a
king-not an African woolly monarch, but
even Edward VII. himself, who knows
something of the re1nements OF artistic
cookery and has an experienced palate.

Engfishman TO whom these original and
courageous tastes are attributed IAN Eng

periy cooked, was better than the best

About Lawson.
From the Kansas City Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
Due credit should be given 10 Mr..
Thomas w. Lawson for the ~indisputable
fact that he did much to bring about the
insurance investigations and otherwise to
provoke a closer scrutiny of ''frenzied
finance" But Mr.. Lawson has done so
many erratic things, has been so extreme
I'm some instances and so visionary in
others, that some allowance should be
made for his announcement that he is on
the verge of ruin as a result of the ad-
vances in copper in spite of his efforts 10
keep the market down. Now, why should
a broker, having risked his all. and having
already lost millions to revengeful, ag-
gressive and powerful enemies, announce
to these enemies and to the world that he
is on a precarious footing and has bis all
risked ON a given issue? That does not
seem to be good business sense.
Mr.. Lawson IS probably trying to turn
another trick. The game is rather complex
TO those who do not know the cards, but
ten to one Thomas w. Lawson is not
ruined, nor anywhere near to being ruined
Just yet.
