best umpires in the business.
McGraw's men are favorites in the
fight, more for the reason that they
are in good shape than anything
else. Some concern is felt In Phila-
delphia because the eccentric "Rube'
Waddell may be out of the game. In
addition to his pecullarities, "Rube"
has developed very sore arm, and
it is believed that Mack will NOT mt

will do the bulk of the twirling for

uorrspKEEpING IN VENICE.

Any one who keeps house in Venice will find that the picturesqueness of surroundings is carried out in all the details of life. The kitchen for in- stance, will be more primitive than any Kitchen you have yet seen, if your apartment is anything short of a pal ace. It is apt to be a spacious room, around the top of which runs row of shelves filled with pewter plates. There are rows of copper pots and saucepans, and there are fascinating earthen dishes casseroles of every size, and in the inventory there is sure to be round wooden board with stubby hand le, to turn out the steaming pelenta on. Polenta is nothing i nthe world but an excellently made cornmeal musn a cornmeal mush with the mushiness left out, for to be perfect polenta must have consistency Besides the exact proportions of water, salt and meal, po- lenta, to be good must be stirred con- ttnually, and long cudgel for this pur- pose is another item in the kitchen fur nishing. Our polenta was cooked in copper pot hung on 8 crane over a wood fire and this brings me to the cooking arrangements. There is n,. this Venetian kitchen; there Is nothing to cook on by means of which an American cook could turn out square meal. There is a wide soapstone hearth, the sight of the ordinary range, surmounted by an imposing hood. On this hearth without aid of andirons, is built wood fire. The sticks are long, and only one end is lighted-the other end extends out on the edge of the hearth, and as the lighted ends burn down the stick is pushed back into the flame. On either side of this fire stands fornello, and earthenware vessel, something like a large, square 11ower- pot.
 In these are made charcoal fires, quite large enough to heat two f1atirons at the sametime. This is all the cook ing arrangement; there is no place for roasting or baking. No bread, cake, or biscuit is ever made in an Italian house. If you wish to roast a turkey or a large bird you send it In its pan, with tn ebutter for its basting, to the baker, who roasts it to a beautiful brown for from three to five cents. The smaller lOWlS dfS IOdSLSu III UIlS or the large copper casseroles, and by running and twisting and basting necessarily the bird Is perfectly roasted as one would wish. There is no place for keeping anything hot on this embryonic range, and with only three places for cooking, something must be cooked first and set aside to make way for other dishes. On the other hand, there could not be a more economical way of cooking. In very few moments the charcoal fire burns at full pitch, and if one wishes for just enough and no more to broil a chop, one may have it without hav- ing to light a fire sufficient to cook an entire dinner as one would have to do wit hus, for the fuel for an American kitchen range costs anywhere between twenty-five and thirty-ffve cents a day Tn Italy fuel, including both wood and charcoal, costs ten cents day for a family of maderate size.-Pilgrim.

merchants in New York describe the havoc caused by the thrush of waters, whose bright color Is probably caused by the presence of seaweed. A John street importer has a communication from K. Mikimoto of Tokio, who writes that four-fifts of his pearl oysters have already been lost, including 700,- 900 mussels that were treated by the the secret method and 100000 smaller bivalves.
 This is the most severe attack of the kind experienced since the culture of pearls began in these bays, back in 1890. MT. Mikimoto remarks hope fully that Japanese scientists are studying the causes of the disaster, with view to preventing repetition, but he admits his inability to furnish supplies for a few years to come in the same quantities as heretofore.
 He conducted experiments for eight yearse before he placed the product on the market in Paris and Italian cities, and did not export to the United States until after he showed the pearls at St. Louis. Since that time the merchants who sell precious stones and pearls have closely watched the progress made by the Japanese product in popu- 1ov foHyor

Japan. Each of the round pearls Is made by joining two of the culture pearls so skiIfully that the welding is scarcely perceprible.
 Considering the high esteem in which pearls have been held in historic as well as in modern times, the Officials have a strong incentive to perseyere in labors in which fhey have already sur passed ala others, As single, natural pearls not infrequentIy sell for thou sands of dollars and pearl necklaces have been known to sell for Sl0O. 900 and more, the rwards in eight are rich enough to tempt inventive minds.
 Ages ago the first experiments in the culture of pearls were made. The Chi nese have been credited with possessing the secret in past centuries, and in the early part of the eighteenth century there was much experimenting in Sweden and in other European coun- tries in the hope of forcing the oyster to yield pearls for mans convenience as readily as hens lay eggs. No actual results were manifest in the worlds pearl markets in modern times until the Japanese entered the field.
 Americans have been trying to utilize the mussel fisheries in the Western and Southern river in order to cultivate pearls. 4 Brooklynite gave out last spring that, after fourteen years ex- perimenting, he was at last ready to give the world results, but he has not placed any pearls on the market.
 One difficulty in cultivating pearls in American rivers is that control of the streams in which the mussels thrive is not obtainable, and in order to get re- suits the brivales, after they are treat ed according to the formula, must not be disturbed for periods varying from six months to a couple of years or more.
 Americans who have made laboratory experiments say that pearls can be cultivated in six months, and as readi- ly with fresh water mussels as with deep sea oysters. The argument is made that there would be vastly more profit in the pearl fisheries if some re- gulations were adopted which would stop the present wholsale slaughter of mollusks and maye possible cultivation according to the Japanese idea.-New York Sun.

GOOD TO THE SOLDIERS.

Moved by the many suggestions that have been made by individual writers for the cure of assertions on the army,'' said nspector-General Burton in his annual report, 'Fthe Government has made great efforts at vast expense in the last five years to ameltorate the condition of the soldier in respect to his living dress, enjoyements, comforts, and contentment," He said further:
 "It has constructed for him barracks luxurious in their appointments com pared to the housing of the armies of other civilized countries throughout the world; it has provided in these bar racks air space in dimension equal to the demands dictated by the best sci- entific thought; it has given him spring beds, mattresses, pillows, sheets and pillow cases; it ha provided him with toilet and baths of the most mod ern manufacture and much superior in general appearance and effect to simi- lar necessities enjoyed by people in

 of the Japanese Pearl Growers.
 Japanese pearls which, since the St. Louis exposition, have been dealt in, in the gem market of New York, re- gently met a setback, and as a result the output will be much smaller in the next two or three years than was ex- pected. Dealers who have been afraid that the new product would disturb the worlds pearl markets will breath easier when they learn that the drdea- ed red current has inflicted heavy loses in the Japanese bays, where the oyster is trained by man to secrete the lustrous nacre in the form desired for the purposes of jewelry.
