Mrs. De Koven's Babylon Jewelry.

From the New York Press.
Mrs. Reginald De Koven who has always
affected barbaric jewels, can now display
the genuine article and not the cheap imi-
tations which many wear. Mrs De Kover
once on time wrote novel relating to the
days when the Babylonians worshiped
Baal. and since then she has especially ad-
mired the eastern manner of adjoining
beauty. With the assistance of famous
orientalist in Washington she has had fash
Toned a necklace, bracelets and pendants
in reproduction of those used in the time
Of Babylonian greatness. These treasures
are made of the finest gold and real gems,
not even chips form the adornmtsnts Mrs.
De Koven also has set of exquisite
Baroque pearls, which look well with these
trappings.

1t is hopeless to attempt to make Wash

Senator Farwell of Illinois, once hoped to
reign as an intellectual queen In the ma
tion's political center, and her salons
seemed highly successful for one season.
Two winters ago she presented her daugh-
ter Ethel to society. but that yourg woman
was rather too bookish for the butterfly
world. De Koven was interested in a ma
tional conservatory of music, but he made
little progress in tee establishment.

ARMY OFFICERS CLOTHES.
He Must Spend $1,000 for an Outfit
When Commissioned.


From the Kansas City Star.
How would you like to be forced to invest
81 600 for clothing whether you had the
money or wanted to or, not?
This is what an army officer holding
commission in Uncle Sam service has to
do much oftener than he likes. II he does
not happen to have the ready cash (and
many of them do not have it, he is forced
by army regulations to buy enough clothes
on credit to tog out fifteen men.
1t is an army secret, but some of the lieu
tenants, fresh from West Point two years
ago. have only recently finished paying for
their first $1,000 worth of clothes Their
salvation is that their credit is good with
the tailors who cater to the army off1cers'
trade All the uniforms are tailor made.
1t IS nothing out of the ordinary for an
army officer to be paying for his clothes on
the installment plan. That is one part Of
the army officers life that will probably not
appear very romantic-especially to the
women. But the rigid requirements make
1t necessary for the officer to spend large
sum of money for his clothes or suffer
penalty for not having them.
The pay of a second lieutenant is S1,O40 a

tons In the first place re has TO have
service uniforms of olive drab and khaki for
summer and winter wear. There must be
one kind for service while mounted and an
other kind while dismoGnted. 1t requires
not less than four khaki uniforms of wash
goods for field service. There are trousers
for use while dismounted and the riding

ored Venetian cloth, which could not be
bought for EGO.
1t is braided with silk tracing braid, and
embroidered in heliotrope and gold, while
the skirt is killed. The sleeves are full at
the top, finishing at the elbow with white
silk cuffs embroidered in heiiotrope and
gold. A braided girdle is introduced round
the hips to harmonic with the bo!ero, and
a tulip in piping appears on each side OF the
breast, on the back, and a portion of the
corselet skirt.
Another style which Is sure to prove pop
ular is a dark red costume, made in Man
chester, which has secured the second
award in this class. White, dark red,
black and gold are the colors of the braid
ing, and white vest and cuffs complete a
very neat costume.
The Daily Mirror was also shown many
wonderful examples of the tailor's art as
applied to mere man. Frock coats seem
to have reached a standard fixity of pat
tern, but breeches are now very full about
the hips, close at the knees. with the but
tons forward, and cut straight on the In
side Of the leg.

They Are the Best Grasshopper Gath
erers Ever Invented.

From Country Life in America.
Machines for gathering grasshoppers have
been invented and tried. but the most sue
cessful grasshopper gatherer is the turkey.
1t has the advantage of being very profit
able one, too.
ranchman in western Kansas raised
turkeys enough last year to keep eighty
acres free from damage by this insect pest.
Next year this ranchman intends raising
turkeys very extensively for this purpose.
and nearly all of the neighbors are planning
to do the same.
If there were 100 turkeys to each quarter
section in this alfalfa belt there would not
be enough grasshoppers left to damage any
crops. And without considering the good
that turkeys do. turkey raising is a profit
able industry where insects are SO plentiful.
After they attain the age Of three or four
weeks they can obtain their whole living
In the fields and cost the farmers moth
ing until late fall
Turkey raising promises to become a
permanent Kansas industry. The grass
hopper with which the farmers have to con-
tend there is not migrating one, but is
native, increasing from year to year. The
turkeys, however, range over large fields
and thrive on the hoppers.

ALCOHOL INDUSTRY
BOOTED BY FARMERS

Government officials who are COL
lecting from all possible sources the
results of experiments in countries
where alcohol has been employed for
Industrial purposes have ascertained
that the great development of the
alcohol industry in Germany was
primarily due. in large measure, to
the efforts of the government to en-
courage agriculture. The law govern
ing the technical uses of alcohol,
which maintained the high tax on that
intended for drinking but exempted
from taxation that denatured and de-
stlned for industrial uses, was passed
III 1887. period when German agri-
culture was beginning to suffer Sc
verely from competition with the more
cheaply grown products of the United
States. AS alcohol can be cheaply and
abundantly produced from potatoes.
a crop for which Central Germany is
particularly we'll suited. the German
agriculturist soon felt the beneficial
effects of this legislation.
Unfortunately. comparable statis-
tics are not available for the years
preceding the passage of the law, ow-
ing to changes in the extent of the
excise district: but in the period be-
tween 1SS1-SS and 1904-O5 the number
of distilleries and the output of alco-
hol in Germany increased about 50
per cent. In the industrial year 1901
O5 (Oct. l -Sept.3W there were 72.l7o
distilleries. of which 1865. or about
IS per cent. were agricultural dis
tilleries. ranging in production from
Is to 2SS.000 gallons of pure alcohol.
The total output from all the distill-
cries amounted to 100.O5S, 500 gallons
lpure alcohoD, which, expressed in
United States proof gallons. amounts
to about 200.107.00O gallons. About
81 per cent of this quantity is made
in the agricultural distilleries, prin-
clpally from potatoes. the latter ma
terial being the source of more than
three-fourths of all the alcohol dis
titled in Germany.
