small nickel plates; which will be at
tached to the proper desks.
The suggestion for this work arose the
other day when some one tried to locate
the desk which Daniel Webster used when
a member of the senate. None Of the
senate attaches were able to identify it,
assistant doorkeeper Of the senate for
upwards OF 50 years. had been alive he
could have solved the question. as he
possessed the secret Of the location of all
the desks occupied by noted statesmen
almost since the building of the capitol
One of the senate secrets is the know
ledge Of where the desks are that Henry
Clay and John C. Calhoun occupied. This
secret has descended through a success
sion of senate officials.
For long time the desk which was oc-
cupied by Jefferson Davis when senator
from Mississippi was not exhibited to
the public During the civil war some
union soldiers broke into the senate
chamber and jabbed the desk full of bay
onet holes. The punctures were plugged
up and nicely smoothed over: but the
marks of the bayonets can be seen to this
day. The old Davis desk is now used by
Senator Cockrell of Missouri. There
has been no change in the style of
desks used for the last three-quarters Of
a century. Occasionally they have t.
be repaired and new desks have to be
put in, but the same antique style is fol-
lowed.

of Lynn, Mass, which is given to sick
women absolutely free of charge.
Mrs. Pinkham has for many years
made study of the ills of her sex {;

FED BY FOUNTAIN OF PITCH
oeleorated Lake of Asphalt in Trim
idad Seems to Be mex
haustible.

one or the most singular lakes in
the world is the celebrated pitch Lake
OF the Island of Trinidad. This 1ako
spreads over an area of SO acres and
us surface 10 composed of one great
noatlng mass of asphaltum, scanned
with veins of clear water. From if
ana similar lake IN Venezuela the
worlds supply of asphalt is drawn.
The pitch lake is a vile place as far
as smells are concerned, for the air all
ABOUT 1t is heavy with noxious yapors
ana from the center Of the lake gushes
fountain of liquid asphaltum, in
"hlch there float and break bubbles
containing most horrible gases.
The workmen go out on the surface
of this lake and cut great slabs NJ
asphaltum, which are carried away.
But the next morning the hole they
lett is filled up again with a pitch
which has risen during the night, so
that the supply seems to be mex
haustible.
This curious lake was discovered by
Sir Walter Raleigh when he landed in
Trinidad in 1895 on his way to the
mouth of the Orinoco in search of Ell
Dorado.
Another strange lake is situated on
peninsula which juts out into the
Caspian sea. The whole surface of this
lake is covered with soft crust of salt
so thick and strong that man can ride
across it on horseback without any
danger of breaking through.

Seed Wheat.

According to Dean. w. NJ. Liggett
and Prot. c. +. Bull of the state ex-
pertinent station, the question of a
seed wheat famine in Minnesota de-
ponds entirely on securing a proper
distribution of the supply of good seed.
"A bulletin has just been issued from
the ST. tie experiment station" in
which l6 is said that there is enough
good seed to sow the 100000 acres OF
wheat land, provided the supply is
properly ributed, and also provided
farmers use proper precautions in Sc
Letting seed grain from their rusted
wheat.
There is plenty of seed in some local.
tiles and none in others. The author
tiles at the experiment station are
making efforts to relieve the situation,
and farmers who have good seed arc
asked to advertise the fact, the sugges-
tlon being made that they can proba~
bly, get more than the market price,
and at the same time assist in protect
ing the states chief product.
There is an idea prevalent among
farmers that rust, like smut, is carried
from one crop to another by the use of
infected seed. This, the authorities
assert is not true. Methods have been
found for the prevention of smut, but
as yet no definite methods have been
found for the prevention of rust.
Wheat rust is propagated by spors
and from field to field Precaution is
the only way the farmer has combat
ing rust. The authorities claim that
all stubblc and rubbish which would
tend to Iharbor the spors of this dis
ease should be burned, and crop rota-
ton practiced. After these precau-
tions have been observed and some
rust.resistant variety Of wheatis plan
ted the farmer will be reasonably sure

State Fair Races.

The management of the Mime sofa
state fair has fairly outdone itself in
the race program for the feir of 1905,
which has been completed and given
by Secretary E. W. Randcll The to-
tai of purses offered has been increased
by So, 600 from last year and reached
the handsome amount of S27. $50. This
is the largest amount yet offered in
purses by any western race meeting,
whether at n state fair or elsewhere.
The 2:4O class trot is cut and 2:19
class is inserted while the 2:l7 class is
made PA. These changes meet the
views of horsemen.
Perhaps the most interesting change
IS the increase for the purse of the 300
pace and the 2:10 trot Formerly 2:12)
from ST 200 to 81 800. These are the
fastest classes on the program and the
increase is intended to draw out lar
ger field Of starters
The great $1,000 races for Minneapo-
lis and st. Paul days are retained as
are the $4,000, 2:35 trot and $3.50 pace
introduced last year. The special nov
city, however, is the PRODUCTION of
two colt races, for threc-year-olds or
under, bred and owned in Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Iowa and the two Dakotas
with purses of $500 for each
The rules are sub .tantially the same
as last year, with the popular provis-
ions for substitution and withdrawal,
except in this important particular:
"Horses not standing for money at
end of third heat cannot start in
fourth or fifth heats"
This is new provision for Minneso-
ia, but one which is coming in vogue
on many Eastern tracks and is said to
suit the great majority of horsemen
perfectly.

First Jewelry Store.

1t may interest women to know that
the first jewelry store was started in
the city of Chang On about 1000 years
ago. The Celestial VanderbiIts and
Astors of that period knew nothing OF
the fascination Of diamonds, because
diamonds were not in vogue at that B.
c. period. Pearls and jade and coral and
other unpublished mineral substances
had to content them, and as if to make
good the glitter of rivieres and uaras,
the princesses of Chang On employed
artisans to fashion them the most won
derful gold and silver ornaments, which
in themselves were far more costly than
diamonds.-BOstOn Herald.
