YOUTHFUL GIANT
ON THE RAMPAGE
BY Associated Press.

New York, Aug. 2.-On complaint of
his father, Alfred Picer, a fifteen-year-
old boy, who is more than six feet tall
and of manly proportions, has been
arrested. The father declared that
when he demonstrated with the young
giant for some action, the boy demol-
ished everything in the dining-room,
threatened to fire the house and loud
ly declared that if a policeman at
tempted to stop him he would kill
him.
Alfred, ST., lodging the flying glass
ware and china, ran into the street
and called a policeman. After a long
search in the house the police found
the erStwhile pugnaciously inclined
youth hiding under a bed in his ia
theirs room, crying as if his heart
would break. On being taken to the
station Alfred's feelings were once
more lacerated when he was turned
over. to the childrens society.

FRUIT STEAMERS
WILL BE HELD
MOBILE QUARANTINE BOARD RE.
cINDS FORMER ACTION REL
ATIVE TO TIME OF
DETENTION.

The Mobile Item of yesterday con-
tanned the following:
The detention time of steamers from
the tropics to Mobile has been again
changed, according to instructions is
sued to the masters of certain steam
ers of local importing firm.
, Some weeks ago the quarantine
board of Mobile bay reduced the de-
tention time on such steamers, as it
was shown were out with their fruit
seven days, from five days to four
days. The steamers plying to Puerto
Cortez were required to remain out
the full detention time, no doubt for
good and sufficient reasons.
Last night the banana importers
were notified that steamers must re-
main out the full FIVE days before pro-
.ceeding to this port. A steamer due
up last night was sent back to sea
until five days had elapsed from time
of departure from the tropical port
The embargo of five DAYS upon all
steamers from the tropics has been
imposed by the quarantine board. The
steamers Taunton, Vaccaro and the
Alps and Olympia were required to
remain in quarantine five full days
from the time they left the port of
departure.

A DANGEROUS LIQUID.
HydrOhuOric Acid Is Most Safely
Kept In Golden Bottles.

HydrOhuOric Acid Is Most Safely
kept In Golden Bottles.
A gold bottle stood on the chemists
table. I'm that BOTTLE" he said, my
hydrOfuroic acid is kept. Hydrofuoric
acid is used in glass etching. The
etching on glass thermometers is all
done with it, 1t is colorless. 1t looks
like water, but a drop of it on your
hand would bore clean through to the
other side like a bullet. Its inhalation
is sure death.
"IIydrofuoric acid can be kept safe
~ in gold bottles alone Sometimes
bottles of india rubber, of lead or of
pla tinum are used. None of these,
though, is as safe as gold.
Even when this acid is in a gold
bottle precautions must be taken with
it. 1t is volatile, and hence a paraffin
covered plate must be clamped tight
over the bottles mouth; also the tenn
perature of the room must not rise over
60 degrees or the gold bottle will burst.
This acid, whose sole use is in glass
etching, is probably the most danger
GUS thing in the world to work with.
The steeplejack, the lion tanner and
the diver do not take their lives in their
hands to half the extent the glass etch-
er does when, with his gold vial of
hydrohuoric acid, he etches the scales
of our thermometers" - Philadelphia

THE JUICY GRAPE.
It's History Is Well Nigh rs Old as
That of Man.

That of Man.
The history of the grape is almost as
old as that of man. Growing in its
highest perfection in Syria and Persia,
its luscious fruit recommended II to the
especial care of the patriarchal tillers
of the soil, and vineyards were extern
sively planted long before orchards or
collections of other fruit trees were at
all common.
The grape came originally from Per
STA. From the latter country as civili-
ZatiOn advanced westward this fruit
accompanied it-first to Egypt, then to
Greece, Sicily, Italy, Spain. France and
then TO Great Britain, to which latter
country the Romans carried it 200
years after Christ.
To America the seeds and plants Of
the European varieties were brought
by emigrantS and colonists the first
fifty years after its settlement.
There are a vast number of varieties
of grapes, but there are really only
about a dozen varieties good for the
table. California produces the TOkay,
Muscat, Black Prince, Malaga, etc,
while the eastern states produce such
varieties as the Concord, Catawba, Nj
agara. Delaware, Black Hamburg and
Isabella.-New England Grocer.
