PRICE TO GO
SOARING
SKYWARD

Providence ice men are inclined 10 take
n pessimistic view Of the prospects for
next summer and consider It more than
probable that the price OF fee will be con-
siderably in excess Of what Il has been
heretofore. The raise in price will prob
ably go into effect March /.
The Wholesale rate will probably be
advanced before the prices are made for
family trade, as the latter does not begin
until about April /. Dealers doing busi-
ness with the Providence Ice company
Will be charged 81 ton. except on yearly
contracts. which will not be affected for
at least a couple Of months.
There Is now very small amount OF
fee in Providence and what there Is tho
companies are taking unusual pains TO
preserve. The Providence Ice company
has about 75. 900 tons. which Will go but a
little way towards supplying the demand
for any length OF time
The Pocasset Ice company has only
about 1000 tons on nand. Both com
panies have attempted TO cut ice this
winter and harvested n very small guam
tity OF seven-inch ice.
The latter company mas houses al Ath-
ton. Mass, where the fee Is eight inches
thick and there seems fair prospect of
getting some kind OF q crop. Should
the local companies be obliged TO bring
ice here from KenneDeck and Hudson
rivers however. the prices will be very
high

PASTEuRIZED MILK.
Simple Home Method of Securing
Safe Food For Babies.

Simple Home Method of Securing
Safe Food For Babies.
Pasteurized milk is that which has
been heated to a temperature Of be-
tween 155 and ITO degrees and kept at
that temperature from ten to thirty
minutes before being rapidly cooled
and put on ice.
1t may seem strange that lower
temperature than the boiling point
should be the one selected, but bac-
terra which cause milk to sour are
killed at 155 degrees, and the disease
germs which are likely to be present
are destroyed at ITO degrees.
For the mother who wishes to pas
teurize at home, the simplest and with
care) safe method is to place
the milk in glass jars, ill a pail with
boiling water and place the jars In
this. The water should come nearly to
the top Of the jars and above the milk.
Set the pail in warm place and
stir the milk occasionally. The milk is
heated to the desired degree before
the water is lowered to the pasteuriz-
ing temperature. Lastly and most i'm
portant cool the milk by running cold
water into the pail, then stopper quick:
~ and set on ice.
Remember that pasteurized milk
may easily become contaminated
again, and only proper care can in
sure its remaining sterile. - Good
Housekeeping.

Death 90 Jack Rabbits.

Railroad men are predicting the com
plete humiliation of jack rabbits along
the Southern Pacific line between
Yuma and Tucson and also between
Tucson and Ell Paso, says the Tucson
(Ariz.) Citizen. The electric headlight,
they say, Is doing the business, for 1t
seems to stupefy and brighten cold the
long cared creatures which sit on the
track until they are run down and
killed. Just how many thousand jack
rabbits there are along the Southern
Pacific is problematic, but the railroad
men say that the ranks Of the repre-
sentatives Of Kansas are rapidly being
thinned out. Before the day Of strong
electric headlights the jack rabbits
would sit along the road and gaze at
the trains as they passed by. Now the
rabbits sit on the track stone blind
waiting death by tie engine wheels.

That many Of the immigrants who

Immigrants from the south Of Europe

A FIimsy Craft.

While it Is rarely employed by Euro
peans as method of travel, even In
emergencies, the catamaran Of the
Madras fishermen of India is by all
odds the most extraordinary Of water
vehicles. 1t consists simply Of three
logs dashed together and flush with the
surface of the water On these fish
erman sometimes two or more fisher
mem stands and with a single oar pad
dies himself far ont to sea. A Madras
fisherman will venture out when boat
men will not launch their craft, and
even in weather when boats cannot be
launched he will go through the surf
and out to ships with letters, for the
delivery of which he gets few pence
In order to catch their ships a few be-
lated travellers have been known to
trust themselves on catamarans. They
are united in the statement that the
ride on the logs was the inost nerve
trying experience they had undergone
in land that holds new thrill for the
stranger at every turn. The sea and
an occasional ducking have no terrors
for these natives, not even the ex-
tremely young, and in reality the cata-
maran is not entirely to be scorned, for

TOPICAL SUMMER SONG.
lively Dirty with Stirring Chorus
That Has Won Public Favor.

lively Dirty with Stirring Chorus
That Has Won Public Favor.
That annual arrival, the summer
song, is once more in our midst and
refuses to vacate the public haunts
where music and mirth hold sway until
the changing leaves warn the summer
boarder citywards.
The summer song has been reg
ular and not unwelcome visitor for
several years. Hitherto it has always
been associated In the popular mind
with the waltz, in which tempo the
ephemeral warm weather ditty has al
most invariably been written. This
year, however, the form II not the sub
ject OF the summer song has been
entirely changed and 1t comes to us In
q novel and wholly different guise.
For instance, a new song called
"Alice, Where Art Thou Goingr and
which has sprung into immediate popu-
larity, is written in stirring march
time, and unlike the dreamy, languor-
Gus waltz has tendency to rouse the
dropping hot weather spirits of leth-
argic pleasure seekers in dancing pa
vilions or overcrowded trolley cars.
Furthermore, it has tempted most of
the bands and orchestras at the sea
shore and other resorts to repeat this
lively number time and again at each
concert for the excellent reason that
they as musicians enjoy the relief
which it affords them from the per-
Torrance Of musical numbers which
have become "iat, stale and unproft-
able"
While the story and lines Of "Alice,
Where Art Thou GoingT can hardly
be described as even semi-classical-
and it is certain that they will never
occupy a niche in any hall Of fame
the chorus is herewith submitted to
give an idea Of the general prevailing
trend Of the public taste:
Alice where art thou going7
Where shall we spend the dayf
Alice, wen make dead swell showins
II 1t costs my whole weeks pay.
My coin was made for blowing
Grille, It's up to you
Sail or ride or roam the sands
Or sit and listen to the bands
Alice, where art thou going?
1t is not known whether the author
had 10 mind the presidents daughter
when in the throes Of composition, but
the public appears to take it for grant
ed that he did and joins in the chorus
with renewed vigor under the impress
sion that it is paying compliment to
Mrs. Longworth.

HOT ON TRAIL OF
ASCENDING
BANKER
Wires to All Parts of the
World Kept Hot Trying
To Locate Him.

New York, Oct. 12.-Cablegrams to
all ports in the world were sent out
to-day asking the authorities to keep
watch for Manuel Silveira, the Ha-
Vana banker, who is accused OF haV-
ing absconded with more than 81
100000, thereby causing the assign
ment in this city of the banking and
commission house of Juan M. Cebal-
los & Co., who failed on Wednesday
with liabilities between $3,000,tOO
and 100000.
It was announced here to-day that
Silveira is not on board the steamer
Carmelina in which he and his fam
lily sailed from Havana. 1t is said
that the present whereabouts OF the
Carmelina are known, and that the
destination of the steamer to which
it is said Silveira and his family
were transferred two days out from
Havana, has been ascertained.
W. V. Rowe, receiver of the wreck
ed firm, said to-day that every ef-
fort was being made to apprehend Sill
veira, who, he said was a close per-
sonal friend Of President Castro, OF
Venezuela, and had important finan-
cial relations with the head OF the
South American Republic. Detectives
have been employed to run down Sill
veira, Mr.. Rowe said, and their opin-
ion is that the Cuban banker will
strain every nerve to reach Vene-
Zuela.
William N. Cromwell, of Cromwell
& Sullivan, counsel for the receiver
of Ceballos & Co., to-day stated that
the money taken by Silveira included
$685. which he had collected from
the Cuban government on treasury
warrants.
Ceballos & Co. were heavy pur-
chasers of these warrants, which
were issued to the Cuban veterans
after the close of the Spanish-Ameri-
can war Some 100000 additional
uneollected warrants were found in
Silveira's safe, according to advices
received to-day by the Ceballos firm
from Jose Beola, who is acquitted of
any knowledge of Silveira's alleged
wrongdoing. Another cable received
from Beola to-day indicated that he
total amount alleged to have been
taken from Cebalios by Silveira is
about $1000,000 In addition to thiz
100000 in outstanding liabilities are
