TANCIER NIGHT FASCINATES
Writer Declares That Nothing Is
Quite So Beautiful as Moor
ish Evening.

Tangier is most fascinating at
night; then the clear moon of the
south throws a veil over the city;
the browns become softened, the shad-
ows deepened; the shrouded women
looking down from the roof tops ap-
pear as pale and lovely ghosts, writes
Martha Lowell, in the FOur-Track
News. 1t is at night that the Moor
goes to some cafe, joins the circle of
his brethren seated around a lighted
brazier, smokes and hears the musi-
clans sing of valor and of. love. And
if the musicians sing well, a wealthy
Moor may throw some rare incense
upon the brazier, and the air is then
filed with wondrous perfume, such
as is found in no other country in the
world 1t is at night that the wedding
professions march through the wind
ing streets. A band of men. singing
the weird wedding song, accompanies
the bride. She rides in a covered
palanquin mounted on a mule. She has
never seen the man whose wife she is
to be. If he isn't pleased he will re-
turn her next day together with the
scornful gift of two chickens.

Prediction That 3O,oOo,ooo Tons
Will Be Shipped from Lake Supe-
rior Region Next Season.

From present indications about 30
100000 tons of iron ore will be moved
from the Lake Superior region next sea-
son. This is the prediction OF man
very prominently identified with the
lake marine, and he does not make such
predictions without some excellent rea-
son for his estimate.
This means that the ore movement
from Lake Superior in 1905 will break
all previous records for single season;
that it will be 2,5OO.000 tons in excess
of the season record, made in 1902, and
be at least 100000 tons greater than
the prospective record for the present
season of 1904. The authority says fur
ther that alf new boats now under con-
struction for the lake trade, and which
will go in commission next spring or
early in the summer, will find plenty of
business. The movement of 10000, 600
tons of iron ore from Lake Superior
next season means that the shipments
from Duluth, Two Harbors and Superior
will be in the neighborhood of 16 600, 900
or 100000 tons.
The boom in shipbuilding and the ex-
tensive preparations that the Minnesota
ore roads are making for handling their
products next year all seem to bear out
the prediction of a monster shipment
next season. 1t is especially cheering
news for Duluth and for all of the range
towns of Minnesota, and also for all the
mining and shipping towns of the Lake
Superior region

NATIONAL TENNIS

The opening matches OF the 26th nation
al tennis tournament will be started on
the grounds OF the Casino. Newport, r. J.,
on Tuesday.
Among the i05 entries there are so many
good men that even with a most unfor-
tunate drnw. there will be matches be-
tween high class men every day.
Who of all the great field OF players Will
win the all-comers7 A careful scrutiny OF
the field and a weighing of all the materi-
al leads TO the bringing up OF two men
w A Iarned and Beals G. Wright, both
of whom have shown themselves masters
OF the game on English courts.
OF course most attention centres on W.
Iarned. who has already two legs In
the cup. and is generally expected 10 get
his third This year Larned Is still the
brilliant player that he has always been.

challenge match at Longwood, he showed
