PENNIES FOR COLLEGE.

100000 Workers Each Give a Penny
to RuskIn College.
The British trade unions had not
in their origin any direct c with
education, says the Fortnightly Re-
view. But it is a fact Of no ordinary
significance that some Of the leading
unions should be taking very great in
terest in the higher education of the
workman.
For the last three years some 1907
900 workngmen, members of the
Amalgamated Society Of Engineers,
have made three levies of one penny
each to help on the work of Ruskin
college at Oxford. This levy produces
over $500 a year, and by means of it
six engineers are maintained for a
years course of study at the college.
Smaller but substantial sums have
been contributed to the same institu-
ton by the London Society of Com
positors, by the Lanarkshire Miners
County union, by the Amalgamated
Association of Beamers, Twisters and
Drawers, by the D~erbyshire miners
and the Durham miners, while a large
number Of other societies appear
among the donors and subscribers.

StxIea in Cut Glass.

Cut glass manufacturers have intro
duced during the present year many
special services for certain courses Of
a dinner, and reports indicate consid-
cradle eagerness on the part Of buy
ers in taking up these offerings. The
prediction is made that next year the
show rooms will contain ever more
extensive lines of this sort, aa3 that
entire dinner services Of glassware are
not far away.
The larger and more elaborate
dishes for the table are ornamental
with scroll and ~geometrical figures in
bold designs. Louis XIV. cuttings,
star style in design, have proved quite
stable this year. The pieces are gen.
orally light and have sharp scalloped
edges. Platters for meat, fish and
game are made oblong in shape, with
handles at either end and a broad
rim slanting upward. The bottom is
perfectly fiat, and the shape gives an
appearance of much depth.
One Of the popular bunch bowls
comes in the shape of a grape Leaf
with stem and standard, and is orna'
mented with a vine pattern.

Immense Size Of Mexican Ranches

Immense Size Of Mexican Ranches.
Ranches in Mexico are of no mean
size. Ex-Gov. Terrazas Of Chihuahua
has 100000 acres. The Zuloaga
family is said to hold 5000, 900. Prop
critics Of 100000 and 100000 acres
are not uncommon. Among the Amer.
leans who have large ranches may be
mentioned Fleming & Ross, the Riv.
erside Cattle company, with 100000
acres and a hne herd Of Herefords;
Phoebe Hearst Of California, who has
a magnificent place west of Minaca;
the Millers, and the three Mormon
colonies. Gordon, Ironsides G Ferriss,
a Canadian company, have 1000, 900
acres; Lord Beresford, a relative OF
the admiral, has a large ranch where
he raises fine horses; another English
man. named 1rmstead, owns a large
property. Smaller places of from 49,
600 acres upward are numerous. Tho
price of land now runs from SO to rs
cents gold per acre., with a strong
tendency to rise. :.

Fish Are to Be Caught After a ouaA1
Gives Order.
Another step has been taken In that
art OF supreme simplicity which -
fast becoming the d~istictive feature Of
the London school Of epicures, says
the London Express.
The Carlton hotel is bringing live
trout from Barrasford-on-Tyne. The
The tanks in which they are carried
are packed in ice, and the water Is
changed several times on the way, so
that the fish arrive in London In
prime condition. They are at once
transferred to a great tank fed by
running water over miniature ice
bergs. This tank is covered with
wire netting to keep the vigorous fish
from leaping out. Presently a glass
will be fixed in an annex to the
palm garden beyond the restaurant
and those who are so pleased may 60
and see the actual fish caught ten
minutes before they are served at the
table. OF course this custom is q
fairly common one on the continent,
more especially at little Inns among
the mountains, but until M. Jacques
took it in hand it has never been q
success in London. Last year a Wis.
itor to Vevey spent one Of the most
exciting quarters OF an hour of his
life in trying to land a six-pound carp
for his lunch from the private fish
pond Of a little inn at Vevey. It was
not until assistance had been given
that the hsh was triumphantly caught.
Every year at the great London res.
taurants the demand for plain fare in
reases. Nothing could be more per.
fectly simple than "truite au blep"-
trout fresh from the stream, plainly
boiled. London is setting a new fash.
ion in epicureanism. 1t insists on the
very best materials perfectly cooked
and in such a name that the origi-
nal flavor is not lost. The age of the
u is happily over England IL
going back to plainly boiled, grilled
and roast meats, but discarding the
~coarseness of our forefathers in favor
Of the delicacy of French methods.

This Class Keep. Out Heat.

An Austrian inventor, Richard sdig-
mondy. is reported to have made a
new kind of window glass whose chief
popularity is that it prevents the
passage of nine-tenths of the heat of
the suns rays.
It is well known that ordinary win
dow glass allows nearly all Of the
heat derived from the sun to pass
through. but, OF the other hand, inter-
cepts all heat coming from non.lumin-
GUS sources. such as a stove or the
heated ground. This is the reason
why heat accumulates under the glass
roof Of a dollhouse.
II covered with szigmondy's glass a
dollhouse would, it is claimed, become
a cold house. since the heat could get
into it. One advantage set forth In
favor Of the new glass is thhat a house

olIve.Drab and Khaki Have Taken

At no time In the history Of wal has
the question Of color received so much
attention from military men as with
In the last ten years. That the value
OF approximate invisibility has been
fully recognized by powers that be
is fully shown in the passing Of the
blue uniform and the advent of the

clear clear atmosphere are blue, it Is
pointed out, and the brighter the sun
and the greater the distance of the
object the bluer it appears; also the
blueness is in proportion to the densi-
ty of the object. From 1900 to about
1900 yards khaki in close formation
gives exactly the effect of the blue

for the cavalry guidon having the red
