NEW DEVICE FOR LIVE FISH
German Firm Would Make the Haul
ing Of Sea Food BY Rail
Easier
Special Cable to The Herald

BERLIN July 7.-Messrs. Siemens
and Halske are constructing railway
cars for the conveyance of live fish
out of water. German chemical experts
have discovered that fish remain alive
I'm the air so long as their gills are
damp and have invented compartments
i'm which the fish are supplied with oxy-
gen and moisture. Experiments have
shown that fish can be kept alive in
this manner for three or four days.
At present the transport of live FISH
Is effected by means of heavy tanks,
so per cent of the weight of the load
being taken up by the reservoir, and the
fish themselves constituting only Z
per cent.

DISHES OF MOSS ARE SERVED

Hansteen of Christiania for
His Guests
Special Cable to The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald
CHRISTIANA, July DIR Han
steen, professor at the agricultural
school here, has entertained his profess
sional colleagues at a banquet of CON-
mon Iceland moss.
The doctor ascribes to the moss rare
virtues as a food when properly pre-
pared and beats all previous vegetarian
claims by announcing that he can pro-
vide a satisfying, nutritious meal for
six people at the cost of a penny.
His menu for the professors consisted
of
Moss with boiled ham.
Moss la haricot.
Moss au naturel.
Pure moss bread.
The banquet was a great success, the
guests declaring themselves delighted
with the appetizing quality of the fare,
The doctor states that by cleaning the
moss and chemically treating it, he has
produced a substance possessing all the
nutritive qualities of various Vegeta-
bles and that from yellow moss he has
extracted wholesome fine white flour
The flour, when mixed with common
wheat -four, makes delicious bread and
pastry.
DR.. Pauson of Christiania, who is also
an ardent advocate of a moss diet, is
experimenting with it with a view to
producing food for invalids.

FRENCH WRITER AWARDS AMERICANS
THE PALM AS WORLDS BEST DRESSERS

without exception the clothes come
from London"
Frederick Bosworth, a we'll known
West End cosuumer and tailor, who has
lived in the United States, said: Com
pairing the American business men and
women with their London equivalents,
the former are decidedly neater in ap-
pearance.
The American woman, too, shows
more daintiness and sense of fitness in
choice of material in making up, and
displaying it to the very best advan-
tage."

GENEVA. July 7.-Recently the

law prohibiting the sale of absinthe. AS

TIMED BEEF IS
CAUSING A PANIC
FEAR OF "EMBALMED" FOOD
LEADS TO ABSTENTI0N
Immense Damage Done In London.
Rich and Poor Alike Suspicious
Of Everything in Nature
Of Canned Meats
sreclal cable 10 The Herald.

Special Cable TO The Herald
LONDON, July THE revelations
regarding the revolving methods en-
ployed by the Chicago packers in pre-
pairing meat for canning have had the
expected sequel in this country. The
consumption of timed food has fallen
off to an astonishing extent for the
public has completely banned this class
of goods.
The effect will be incalcuable loss for
a large number of wholesale dealers,
and enormous damage to grocers in
every part of the kingdom, from the
largest London stores to the smallest
village shop.
The consumption of timed food Is
enormous in nearly every section of the
community. The unskilled working
class make it their staple diet, and the
middle class man eats it nearly every
day both in tea shops and at home.
Altogether about $25,000000 worth OF
timed food was imported into this
country last year. The great losses
that must result from complete paraly-
sis of the trade can thus be seen.
A press representative who made IN
ouiries learned that diners in restau-
rants, from the best hotels down to the
humble sausage shop, inquire before
they eat certain food whether it is
timed or fresh.
Banned by Soldiers
An excellent illustration of the public
feeling is the action of the ranks OF
the army. Timed beef is a very i'm
portant item in soldiers rations.
1t is customary to issue this bully"
beef ration once a month.
When the issue was made to the
troops at Salisbury on Friday, it was
refused point blank by the men. When
it was forced on them they emptied the
contents of the cars on Salisbury plain.
The piles of meat tins behind the gro
Gerry bars Of the canteen have had to be
removed out of the reach of irate
soldiers, who did not content themselves
with sarcastic remarks about boiled
boy" and "potted Sweepings," but made
raids on the canteens to destroy the
offensive stuff. The mems objection 20
timed food has been strengthened by
the fact that a soldier died at Salisbury
camp of ptomaine poison during the
week.
The ban against timed meat has
spread to all forms of timed goods,
and there is less demand for salmon, or
pears, or pineapple, or, indeed, any
thing done up in this way.
These are "boom" days for the cut
from the joint and the rasher. The
sausage and the minced meat COM
pounds are under suspicion.
Tons Destroyed
Large quantities of timed food are
being destroyed or given to poultdy
every day. This action is not confined
to stores in private kitchens, but ex-
tends to public institutions where it
was largely used. In some workhouses
the paupers who read the papers have
rebelled against it. On Saturday last
the Wandsworth guardians, in whose
workhouse nearly 5000 pounds week
was eaten, decided to stop the supply
and to destroy the stock at present in
their possession.
AT the instigation of John Burns the
local government board is making in
uuiries with a view to taking action
in the matter of the Importation of
suspected beef.

Pat MilIett Will Retire,

We take the following from Wednes
days Cincinnati Enquirer: "Pat Mil
lett, who has cut figure on the West
ern turf for some years, will most like
ly retire from the game. Mr.. Millett
is busy man, and has not the time to
see his horses run. In addition he has
played IN bad luck, some of his good
horses going wrong, and his big bets
also going to the bad, Miss Doyle, the
last one he wagered on, being left at
the post. Mr.. Millett is now negotiat-
ing for the sale of Cottontown, the
best three-year-old at the track, and
for the other good ones that he has in
the barn. Mr.. John Ireland, well re-
rnembered as one Of the Ireland Bros,
who raced for years at Latonia, is the
prospective buyer. He wants Cotton
town and Redlight from MiIlett, and
The Minks from Dave Prewitt. 1t is
said that there is a slight difference be-
tween what Ireland has offered for the
crack colt and what Millett asks. The
figure is round the $10,G0 mark.
Thirty-fve hundred dollars was asked
for The Minks. Mr.. Ireland left for
home yesterday afternoon, but is COM
ing back to-day to complete the deal if
possible. The rest of the MiIlett stable
will be turned out until next spring,
when, as Pat said, They may be raced
under my colors or under somebody
else's. don't see how can get out
OF the game entirely at present, as
have some fine brood mares, some
yearlings and weanlings. ="
