Interstate European Waterways.

The notion that the Rhine above
Strassburg could never be navigated by
large boats has at length been proved
baseless. The experiments of the Swiss
association for the navigation of the
upper Rhine have shown that after
the removal Of the obstacles immedi.
ately above Strassburg there are no
other natural difficulties all the way
up TO Basle which cannot be easily ov.
ercome. The greatest impediments to
navigation are the bridges, which have
been built oyer the Rhine without re.
gard to the requirements Of the navi,
cation Of large vessels. These have
frequently an insufficient breadth Of
span in the middle arch, or their main
openings do not lie in the deepest wa.
ter. With comparatively little ex'
pense the river can be made navigable
from Basle upward as far as the Lake
Of Constance, and thus not only would
the navigable length be extended east.

The soudan Railway.

surveys made for a railway line in this
country and the project was discussed
many times after that. During the

by which any action upon the tin is
made impossible. Glass, of course,
from a hygienic point of view, is the
most satisfactory material that can be
employed, but dts use entails obvious
disadvantages. In transit, for in.
stance, glass vessels are liable to break
they cost more to pack, and cannot be
handled with the same impunity as can
metal container. 1t is satisfactory
to learn that the old objection to the
use of the tin e9ntainer for the pur
pose of preserving fruits has been com
pletely overcome by a method recently
adopted. The process is extremely
simple and consists in uniformly GOV.
ering the tin with a thin veneer of
lacquer, which is absolutely proof
against the action Of fruit acids and,
in fact, as we have found, against even
the action Of mineral acids. We have
examined several tins in which var.
ious jams have been kept, and in no
instance were we able to find any evi.
dence of the tin being acted upon, the
lacquer being just as sound as when it
had first been put on.
In view of these results, there is no
reason whatever why prejudice should
any longer exist against the use of this
veneering process is carried out in the
satisfactory way just indicated. This
departure not only satisfies hygienic re
quirements, but also is calculated to
reduce the cost 10 the consumer of
popular, palatable article of food. The
method, IL seems to us, should give
stimulus to home fruit growing, as it
provide a satisfactory means Of pre-.
serving fruit which is hygienically
sound and econimacl. We carried out
a number of careful experiments with
the following fruits preserved and
packed in this way: raspberries, straw
berries, gooseberries, plums, black
berries, green cages and damsons In
no instance was there the least indica.
tion of any action on the tin, and not
trace of tin could be found in the
syrup, while the color Of the fruit was
satisfactorily preserved. = London Ian.

GORKY
FIRED

Maxim Gorky and his woman com.
Panion were not found by newspaper
z1sn in this city yesterday, says a
New York despatch of the 10th. Their
baggage, it was ascertained was ship.
ped to Chicago on a morning train, and
there was some reason to believe they
had gone on the same train with the
baggage, together with Nikolay Pies.
choff, Gorky's adopted son.
After being turned away from the
Lafayette-Brevoort hotel, on Saturday
\ evening, they went to a socialistic
meeting at the Grand Central palace
\ with the understanding that they were
to have rooms at the Rhinelander.
When they got to the Rhinelander, an
hour before midnight, however, they
Tere told by Frank Geraty, the man
ager, that they could not stay there,
and that their baggage must be re.
moved Immediately. Gorky and the
woman, who has been travelling with
. him as his wife, turned to No. 8 Fifth
avenue in company with Mr.. and Mrs
Leroy M. Scott, while the baggage was
sent to the Victoria hotel in charge of
Gorky's adopted son.
Left Baggage at Station.
An attempt to get rooms at the Vic.
torix failed, and the baggage was taken
to the Grand Central station and left
in the baggage room over night. At
the Grand Central station yesterday it
was said that the baggage had been
shipped to Chicago, but nobody would
say positively whether or not Gorky
and his companions were on the train
as passengers.
H. Gaylord Wiltshire, who was res.
ponsible for the appearances of the
Gorkys at the Hotel Belleclaire. said
last night that he did not know what
had become of them.
"I wanted Gorky to come to my
house." he said. 81 told him that he
would not be able to get rooms in any
hotel in the city with his conventional
wife, when it was known that his real
wife and children were in Russia, and
i think the trouble he is encountering
win teach him lesson. He will find
out that he cannot achieve anything in
this country except with the aid of
the Socialists
Gorky Needs Rest.
abraham Cohan, editor of the Jew.
iph Daily Forward, said last night
that Gorky had arranged to 60 out of
the city for a few days and keep out
of sight, in quiet place, where he
could write in peace. In that way,
M. Cohan said, the Russian author and
revolutionist could get ready some
speeches he intended to deliver in this
eonntry, and in the meantime the trou.
bleNover his companion would abate.
immigration Commissioner Robert
when seen at the Hotel |
Chelsea yesterday, said the case was
no longer in the hands of the local |
bureau. It was up to Sec.
setAry Metealf of the department of

said. "If Gorky is, as he says, mar

the case now stands, however, we have
no evidence against Gorky or the wo.

wow to Remove Ink From Carpets

When freshly spilled, ink can be re-
moved from carpets BY wetting in
milk. says the New York Journal. Take
cotton batting and soak up all Of the
Ink it will receive. being careful not to
let it spread Then take fresh cotton,
wet in milk, and sop it up carefully.
Repeat this operation, changing cot
ton and milk each time. After most of
the ink has been taken up IN this way
with fresh cotton and clean, rub the
spot. Continue till all disappears; then
wash the spot In clean. warm water
and a little soap; rinse in clean water
and rub till nearly dry. If the ink is
dried in there is no way that will not
take the color from the carpet as we'll
as the ink, unless the ink IS on a white
spot. In that case salts Of lemon or
soft soap, starch and lemon juice will
remove the ink as easily as If on cot
ton.
A report of the Department OF Agri-
culture says that although the imports
Of farm products were larger in 1905
than in any year since 1890, the value
Of the exports exceeded that OF the
imports by one half and there was a
balance of trade of s2S5, 900, 900 in ia.
vor OF American farm products. The
balance of trade for farm products
since 1890 aggregates $3.50. 900. 600.

How to Treat Them When Inhamed
by the sun.

HOW to Treat Them when Inname0
by the sun.
In warm weather many of those who
usually wear gloves discard them and
the skin Of the hands is exposed to the
warm rays of the summer sun, says
the New York American. The white
ness of the skin and its delicate thin
ness allow the chemical rays to pene-
trate into the skin and it is apt, If the
exposure is prolonged, to produce in
dammation.
The most usual occurrence is known
as ''sunburning," and consists in the
occurrence of large scales of the horny
layer of the skin being thrown off,
leaving the skin red and tender be-
Meath Provided nothing else is pres
ent capable of keeping up the indam-
nation this ends the matter and grad
uaIly the skin assumes its usual APP
pearance. II, however, certain bac-
terra are present in the skin the proc
ess thus begun may continue and
spread around the part primarily af-
fected.
Not only so, but it may occur even
although the primary exposure is very
trifing In degree and short in duration.
The light seems in these cases to
weaken the resistance of the skin and
the bacteria do the rest.
A patch infamed in this way will
act recover spontaneously. In the
early stages sometimes protection
from the elements is enough, but this
is not always successful, even in the
earliest sta~es of such attacks, and il
is wise usually to submit it to other

This ointment, too, is useful in treat
