.ALBTHO TROUT.

New York is going to have some al- bino trout if her Fish and Game com- mission can made them grow. For some time the New York commission
 has been attempting to raise albino trout, but with very poor success. At a recent attempt out of SOO000 fry only fifty were of the albino species. Minne- sota is one of the few States in the Union where the raising of albino trout has been a success. Fully 90 per cent. of the fry matched have turned out to be the real albino trout. At present the St. Paul fish hatchery has more than 10000 of these albino trout for breeding purposes, and the species is in- creasing very rapidly since it's discovery in 18eS The failure to propagate the trout in New York is ascribed to the water. It is thought that if a number of the eggs are shipped from Minnesota to New York enough might be matched to build up a strong family of albino
 trout. The albino trout has not yet been placed in the streams of Minne- sota, but it is hoped that some may be placed this spring. They are used at present merely for display fish at the hatchery. The fish are white, mottled
 with yellow and colored with typical red and yellow spots. The fins are white
 with red bands mottled with. yellow.
 The eyes are red, and the trout has ap-
 parently transparent skin, so that the
 bones are visible through it. Prepa-
 rations will be made soon to stock the streams of Minnesota with trout. At
 present the commission has 6,0OOOOO
 trout on hand. the largest number in
 it's history.
 Connecticut needs some albino trout.
 She also needs the other kind, as most
 of those who go out to catch specimens
 discover.

oUp 1IrrIE nRoWx FOLKS.

The Philippine census shows that there are 7.6s5. .42s people in the islands. and that the islands themselves from which returns have been received number three hundred and. forty-two. Of course in the less civilized islands, where wild tribes are still in control, it has been impossible to obtain an ahso' lutely accurate enumeration, but it il
 believed that even there the discrepan' cy is not more than ten per cent. O. the total population of the islands nearly seven millions are more or less civilized, while the wild tribes com prise about nine per cent. of the whole' The civilized tribes are practically all affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church. and the Moros, with whom our army has been having considerable
 trouble in the last year or two, are Mohammedans.
 In the census literacy was defined as ability to read and write in any lan- guage, such as English, Spanish or a
 Malay dialect. The reading of Spanish was discouraged from the earliest times by the friars, who felt that it
 would result in a diminution of their authority. Therefore, the majority of those reported as literate can read and write only in their native language.
 More than half of the population can neither read nor write in any language, and of the 44.5 per cent. able to read less than one-half can write, while the number able to both read and write constitutes only one-fifth of the popu- lation at least ten years of age. Only 1.5 per cent. have received a superior education. Thus the condition regard ing literacy closely resembles that of Porto Rico. Limited as are the edu- cational facilities in the Philippine 1sl- ands under the best conditions, it is interesting to observe that the females have received far less advantages than the males, for while about two-thirds of the males who were taught to read
 were also taught to write. only one- fourth of the females received equal irl- struction. .-.-... -,
 There are now s11715 scholars in the
 schools, and of this large number we'll
 on toward half are girls, yet much has
 still to be done for youthful education in the islands, as only s7.5 per cent. of
 the children of school age have been enrolled. '~.s.''

THE BRITISH sE4-eoLD SCHEME.

Connecticut people who were inter
 ested in Brother Jernigan's scheme for getting the gold out of sea water will take a melancholy interest in the Eng fish scheme for doing the same. A British syndicate owns new process which, it is alleged. has the approval of Sir William Ramsay, the eminent Lon don chemist. The process is said to be patented, but particulars are not avail able. For some years the syndicate has been quietly picking up favorable | sites on the English coast" and now has fifty miles of foreshore. So much foreshore is necessary, it is explained, because the process requires sea water uncontaminated by sewage or the bilge iwater of steamers. Experiments have shown that there is a grain of gold, worth four cents, in each ton of sea water, and as the ocean contains | 60, ,000, ,000, ,00O,0 900 tons the syndicate has bonanza. It is feared, however. that if the extraction is conducted on too large scale gold will become a drug on the market, falling to the value of copper and deranging the worlds finances. It would be contrary to the syndicate's interest to produce yearly more gold than can be absorbed at present prices. It has been decided. therefore. very considerably. not to engage in the extraction process "on Isuch scale as would have an unset tling effect upon the currency"
 There are those who are so distrust- full of men and things that they say that this English scheme is likely to have an unsettling effect on those who invest in it, but there are always croak- CTS. There were some in Brother Jer- nigan's time.

pleasure. Room has to be found in the car for the required number of tins of the usual timed food size, and after a meal, of course, the used tine can be thrown away. A hundred other in stances immediately suggest them selves, in which such an invention would be invaluable--as an emergency ration for the soldier on the field. while reconnoitering, on outpost duty, or in biyouac; as a means of provision for the aerenaut, the sportsman, the yachtsman, the sailor and the explorer, for solitary occupant of a city flat who has grown weary of restaurant meals, as an ally of the housewife when cook is i'll or non-existent. It might even be adopted by the patient member of first night theater queue, or the adventurous loyalist who waits long hours in the hope of viewing some i'm perial procession. And the wonder of it is that no one has forestalled the in- lgenious American discoverer, for the secret of the process is that cold water poured on lime brings it to boiling point.

MOTHS IN MASSA CH USETTs.

Some of the good people of Massa- chusetts are still hoping that the na- tional government will be induced to make appropriations for the benefit of Massachusetts and the damage of the gypsy moth. Dr. c. L. Marlatt of the bureau of entomology of the depart States visited Boston last summer and made an investigation of the ravages of the gypsy moth. It was generally believed at the time that the purpose of sending Dr. Marlatt there was to se- cure action from the national govern- ment in helping to. exterminate the gypsy and brown-tail moths which have done SC much damage in the area around Boston. The report of Dr. Mar latt has just been issued, and though there doesn't appear to be in it any specific recommendation that the gov ernment be asked to aid iii extermin- dLAIlS5 liCSS pN0bSs oOiilCbll1i1Ss Sctlu III the report which may be construed as a hint, where he remarks: ''If the gypsy
 moth is to be effectively controlled, it will be necessary to have concerted &C., tion over the entire infested area, and this will necessitate a central author- ity and direction" Dr. Marlatt be- leves in the introduction of the moths natural enemies, and he finds that the broWn-tailed moth, although causing less damage to forests than the gypsy moth, is more annoying because of the irritation it causes to human beings. He says in regard to the gypsy moth: This insect has now reached a stage where extermination is practically im- possible and suggests that large ex. penditure of money for two or three years is necessary in order to cope with the evil, after which a smaller sum would be sufficient.
 This is not encouraging to either Massachusetts or Connecticut. Isn't it time for Connecticut to wake up and look at the gypsy moth danger?

Ingenious Idea of a Firm Manufactur- ing Soups.
 At various food exhibitions there has been on show an invention for heating food without fire and without the usual troublesome accessories of pots and pans. An innocent looking tomato soup tin has four holes punched at one end, and immediately that is done the whole thing begins to fizz and boil. It .ls left for five minutes. until the heat ing materials evaporate, turned upside down, and left for another five. min utes; then it is opened in the ordinary way, when thoroughly cooked soup can De poured out. The food, which is pre- pared by some well known firms, is of the first quality. About a dozen yarie- tles of soup can be had, and the same number of entrees, besides coffee, cocoa and chocolate.

 They are two sects, male and female, and are also very fat. T. When very young they do not have much hair. They are always asleep only when cry ing.

Says the Times: "The drunkenness of children has not been wiped out, notwithstanding the efforts of the principals and of the good men and women on whom they have called for counsel and aid" The paper goes on to say that the board of education has been forced to take notice of this condition and is trying to find a rem- sdy.
