FREAK GERMAN STAMPS.
Pair from Valuable New York
Collection Bring an Extraor-
binary Price.

A rare pair of German f~ive-pfenning
stamps in the A.. II. Scholle collection
sold for $S5 at the closing sale on a re-
cent evening, says the New York
Times. The stamps were unused, the
blue Reichs Post of 1900, which never
were put in circulation. The color
of the five pfennig of this issue is
green. Several years ago a customer
of a Berlin stamp dealer showed him
one of the stamps that was blue. The
stamp dealer took it to the post oftice
authorities and asked if they had is
sued the stamp in hat color. They had
not The color was due to a chemical
change. To prove this theory a spe-
cial sheet of 100 five-pfennig stamps in
blue was issued and presented to the
Royal Postal museum, which adds TO
its collection all oddities it can get.
The sale of 20 of those stamps through
a dealer u collectors raised a storm in
the Berlin Stamp society. The gov
eminent ISSUED an order that no more
museum stamps be sold under any con-
dition. OF the 20 blue stamps sold six
are in this country.
A used pair of the nine schilling
Hamburg issue of 1859 brought $42;
an unused two-cent green Labuan, is
sue of 1879. $17; an unused one-schil-
ling Bahama, issue of 1862, $22; and a

WHERE FISH ARE CHEAP.
In Florida and Cuban Markets Fine
Varieties Sell at Low
Prices.

Commissioner George w. Bowers, of
the bureau of fisheries, returned lately
from Florida and Cuba. where he went
to study the culture of sponges and
the marketing of fish in that COM
munity, reports the Washington Post.
Il have always held said Mr..
Bowers, that the old woman who
raised chickens and the bureau of
fisheries were the greatest benefactors
of mankind. AS long as chickens and
fish are to be had all the beef trusts
in the world cannot run the meat mar
ket up u~nreasonably, because the
masses of people will then eat chick
ems and fish"
Mr.. Bowers stated that the fish mar
kets of Havana were a model OF eff
ficiency and thoroughness. This con-
dition is probably due to the large
number of Catholics. who are heavy
consumers of fish.
In Florida Mr.. Bowers found that
fish were generally eaten and were re-
markably cheap. The negro fisher
men, bringing in shad and other fish
from the st. John river n other
streams. where they are plentiful, sell
them to THE dealers at three cents
each. and the can procure
fish weighing from two to five pounds
each for a nickel. This assures the
poor people an abundance of cheap
