LONG BURNING FIRES.

Some In England Witch Hsve Not
Been Out For Centuries.
There are domestic fires, burning In
Yorkshire, England. today which have
never been out for hundreds Of years.
At the old fashioned farmhouses In the
dales Of Yorkshire peat Is still burned.
The fuel is obtained from the moors,
and stacks ct it are kept by the farm
ers In their stack garths.
The country round about is noted for
its ''girdle cRkcs," which are made
from dough baked in quaint pans sus-
pended from. tfoe peat fires. These fres
are kept glowing from generation to
generation. and the son warns him
self at the fire which warmed his sire
and his grandstre aud his g~ra0dstre's
sire and which will warm his son and
his sons son.
There Is Il fire at Castleton, in the
Whitby district. which has been burn
ing for over 200 years. The record
probably is held by II farmhouse at
Osmotherly. In the same district. The
IRE has been burning for 500 years.
and there are records to show that It
has not been out during the last three
centuries.-St. Eouis Post Dispatch.

Il IL Mainly Confined to Those Born
In This Country.
Pie Is consumed chiefly by the native
Americans. Foreigners eat very little
Of it. A German, for example, might
eat three pies in a year. while a good
Yankee would consume as many In a
week. The English, the Italians and
the French are small pie eaters. The
English eat plum pudding, and the
Italians like fruit. New England and
the middle states constitute the area Of
greatest consumption, but the pie belt
extends far beyond that, as pie Is ex-
tensively eaten all through the west.
Pie Is eaten much more generally In
the north than in the south. Chicago is
a great pie center. st. Louis Is not SO
good. Milwaukee also ranks low. One
would not think that there are means
for ascertainlng the facts in regard to
pie consumption, but I have gathered
statistics on the subject during the last
two years which enable me to compute
with reasonable correctness the con
sumption Of pies in every state in the
Union. Pies are made in greater vari-
ETY. than formerly, and the supplies are
brought from greater distances-in
fact, from all parts Of tho world. The
lease Of pies made Of green fruit has
been prolonged, and pies are made Of
canned fruit the year rouud--Milwau-

Panama Canal Work.

COLON. Aug. 7.-Actual work with
the spade and shovel on the isthmian
canal had been so materially de.
creased during the last few months
that very little dirt is actually re.
moved at present. Chairman Shonts
and Chief Engineer Stevens are di.
recting the energies of almost the en-.
tire working force On the isthmus,
numbering nearly $1,000 men, toward
preparing quarters for the laborers
who will do the actual digging, and
making conditions as sanitary a. pos.
sible. When the French abandoned
the canal they left behind hundreds of
houses which have deteriorated great
ly. and these structures must be ex.
~tensively repaired.
This work, together with that OF
building new houses for the workers,
is progressing rapidly. A large mum.
Der OF laborers on the canal are now
employed 10 filling swamps and doing
away with unsanitary places where
mosquitoes might thrive and bring
about an epidemic of yellow fever.
The policy of the commission now is
to get everything in absolute readi.
ness before starting in on the big
project of building the canal.

Sea Water.

Sea water is a complicated mixture
Of a great variety Of substances.
Roughly speaking. 1t consists Of 98h
per cent Of fresh water plus 81 per
cent Of mineral salts. T~hree-fourths Of
these salts are chloride Of sodium. or
common table salt. and the next largest
constituent is chloride Of magnesium.
After these come sulphate Of magne-
stun, sulphate of lime. sulphate Of pot
ash. bromide Of magnesium and carbo-
nate Of lime. In addition to these sub
stances e water contains minute
quantities Of quite a variety Of ele-
ments, including iodine, phosphorus
and arsenic. 1t also contains some sill
yer. copper. zinc, nickel, cobalt, iron
and gold. There is said to be 2 cents
worth Of gold in every pailful Of sea
water. but as yet nobody has found a
way to extract it. Copper and zinc are
found in some seaweeds, and certain

SEAWEEO AS FOOD.
When Dry 1t Il Richer Than Oatmeal
or Indian Corn.

Seaweed is eaten on the coasts Of
Scotland and ireland in vast quanti-
ties and. though unpalatable and ia
vorless, is at times the chief food of
the poorest.
When dry 1t is richer than oatmeal or
Indian corn in heterogeneous constituents
and takes rank among the most nutri-
tious of vegetable foods.
To prepare seaweed for the table 1t
should be stepped in water to get rid Of
the salt with which it is impregnated,
and a little carbonate of soda removes
the bitter taste, which to some palates
Is most ~disagreeable. 1t should then be
stewed in milk or water till mucilagi-
nous and is best favored with vinegar
or pepper.
Fungi are almost everywhere largely
eaten, though in England less atten-
ton Is paid to them than they deserve.
and few kinds appear at table.
A curious error is to suppose that
fungi are eatable and toadstools pol
sonous. No such line Of demarcation
exists nor, strictly speaking, has the
name t0adstools any precise meaning.
Very many fungi are edible. and the
common agaric usually eaten in Eng.
land is not the most palatable and
wholesome. Few foods are more sa-
worry. and none are greater favorites
than we'll cooked fungi. and the souls
Of v%egetarians yearn for them.-Pear-

Edible Birdss Nest.

The nests eaten by eastern people
are made by birds Of the swift tribe,
which are remarkable for the character
Of their saliva. This. being extremely
sticky, quickly sets into q substance
resembling gelatin. Of which their edi-
BILE nests are made. In shape these
resemble half a saucer and are usually
to be found in caves, attached to rocks.
They have nc particular taste, but
serve as a basis for thick, clear soup,
to which various f~lavorings may be
added at pleasure.

n Glasgow we have a comparatively insignificant mileage com
pared with that Of LARGE AMERICAN cities, and no
comparison between the systems AN therefore be instituted.
We make charges ACCORDING TO THE DISTANCE
TRAVELLED, the same a the steam railroads do. Your American
idea of one fare, which admits of a ride for several miles, with Il trans
fer for several miles more. is something that we would never wen
consider.
With a SMALL. SYSTEM we were able to assume municipal
ownership in Glasgow, but am moi prepared to say whether with the
totally different conditions obtaining in America it could be made
effective in American cities or not.
With the American system of transfers your average ride is more
than twice as long as ours. and. therefore. don't believe YOU can re
duce fares below 5 cents and expect to make ii profit OR EVEN TO
PAY EXPENSES.

ple for the purpose of inspecting under detailed instructions of the signal of flee of the department, for obtaining data necessary for making recommen- dations with a view of installing a telephone system, says the Prescott Journal Miner. Corporal Bowie has just returned from a trip to Camp Apache, where he was occupied on similar duties, and after the comple- ton of the system of telephone com munication for Whipple will go to Fort Huachuca. The system to be adopted at Whipple will be local in it's character and all offices and other buildings will be connected with the central station at some point to be designated later. The government is installing this meth cd of communication at all posts, and the service is said to be of general ben eft, and especially so in the larger pests. The signal service of the army has also adopted the telephone along with it's other duties.
 SPECIAL EDlTIONS-The holiday season brings with it no less certainly than Santa Claus, the annual special editions of many newspapers. Among the latest to be received here were the holiday numbers of the Bisbee Review
 and The International American. They are both very creditable publica- tions, replete with special matter be- tween handsomely illustrated and high ly picturesque covers. The Internat- ional American is particularly well got ten up, carrying twenty eight pages Of reading matter and pictures, on good book paper. The text is devoted mainly to a review of Douglas industries and the marvellous growth of that city from mere handful of houses only four or five years ago, to a town that now boasts of two of the largest smelting plants in the west. There is also a section on Sonora that will interest many. The illustrations are numerous and include everything from pictures of the men who comprise the city gov ernment to pictures of the workings | Of the big smelters and the equipment of the railroad and it's terminal hold ings. It is altogether a number that will be sought for by everybody who ! hears of it and is interested, either | present or prospective, down Douglas way.
