Sea-Water Industry.

From the London Mirror.
For some time the Great Eastern Railway
Company has supplied sea water in small
quantities to aquariums. both public and
amateur.
This past few months, however, wonder
full increase has taken place in the de-
mand. hundreds Of three-gallon kegs COM
ing up to Liverpool street every day.
The water Is obtained from Lowestoft.
where 1t is claimed to be purer and more
invigorating than from any other part OF
the English coast.
Two large tanks, half a mile out at sea,
are filled with the tide. When they are
full special boat goes out and fills the
kegs, which are then sent on to London
by express train.
1.-THE water only used to he ordered for
aquariums." said a Great Eastern railway
official to the Daily Mirror yesterday; now.
however, doctors are ordering their pa
tients to drink 1t in small quantities. Sea
water is claimed to be especially good for
govt and rheumatism.
Photographers, too, are now ordering 1t,
using 1t for some kinds of toning and fixing.
Apart from these purposes, many people
are realizing the bracing properties Of sea
water for a sponge down in the morning.
1t is, as every one knows, wonderfully
freshening."
A three gallon key costs only 3d., and If
ordered in large quantities a reduction can
be made.

IN RICHMOND HOTEL
BODY OF SERGEANT OF 18th q. S.
CAVALRY FOUND.

Robert E. Crenshaw sergeant, Troop E.
18th United States Cavalry, stationed at
Fort Myer, has been reported missing from
the fort since the 2Sth uItimo. The police
were asked last night to look out for him.
Inspector Boardman tits morning received
a message from the police authorities of
Richmond Va, to the effect that the SER
geant had been found dead in Ruppert's
Hotel in that city. Death was due to H.
Illuminating gas, and 1t is believed the SOL
der committed suicide, although the gas
may have been left turned on accidentally.
Sergt. Crenshaw departed from Fort Myer
on a twenty-four hours leave. His failure
to return caused his friends uneasiness 1t
was expected that he would return in a few
days at most, and it was because Of the
confidence the officers had in him that they
delayed reporting him asa deserter.
At the time Sergt. Crenshaw left the post
he had about 500 in cash on his person.
Some of his friends feared he had been
murdered and robbed, but others thought
he had merely overstayed his leave. When
1t was learned that he had been seen in
Norfolk his friends felt certain that when
his money was gone he would return to
the military post However, he went to
Richmond, his former home, and registered
at the hotel under the name Of R. L. Hall.
Wore Civilian Clothes.
The body was found in the room yester-
day afternoon with the gas turned on full
head. Crenshaw had very little money and
wore civilian clothes when he called at the
hotel. A silver watch and fob were in a
pocket of the clothing, the initials "R. L.
c." being on the fob. The overcoat that
had belonged to the dead man was pur-
chased at a store on Pennsylvania avenue,
this city. In the pockets of the clothing the

two dice. A ping pong picture of two young
women was round in a coat pocket and on
a piece Of paper, upon which 1t appeared
the man had started to write a note, ap-
peared the name Jack Buckholtz, Sd Bat
terry, Fort Myer." On the other side of the
paper was written Capt. Jack B."
The police took charge of the body and
had 1t removed to undertaking estab-
lishment where 1t was identified. A sister
of the deceased, Mrs. Mary ]. Hollow, re-
sides at 704 West Marshall street, Rich
mond. She made arrangements for the in
terment of the remains.

PEOPLES NEW FOOD.
Tons Of Green Figs at Record Low
Prices.

From the London Mail.
A new fruit delicacy which for the time
being is seriously challenging the banana
the London market.
For the past few days ripe green figs
have been on sale at price and in guam
titles such as have never before been
known. Every day huge quantities reach
Covent Garden from the south of France,
Spain and Italy. Yesterday the glut
reached it's height, and this luscious purple
fruit, in sound condition, could be bought
in shops and from numberless coster-
mongerS barrowS at the record price of
two for a penny. In southern Europe the
yield has been extraordinarily good.
English green figs, which are principally
grown in the Worthing district, are rather
scarce
Notwithstanding the temporary eclipse
OF the banana, this year is record one
ton in this country being estimated by ex-
perts at 100000 punches.
The Woermann line of steamers, which
some twelve months ago established
coaling depot at Las Palmas, Grand
Canary, has just informed the chamber
Of agriculture in that town that each of
the company's homeward bound steamers
will in future carry up to 300 crates OF
bananas free OF all freight and charges
from Las Palmas to Hamburg, provided
that they are shipped In the name of the
aforesaid chamber.
1t Is believed that bananas have only
to be properly introduced into Germany
to become popular an article OF diet
there as they are at present In the united
considerable portion of the carrying trade
will be diverted from British steamers to
those Of the Woermann line.

Base Ball as an Industry.
New York Commercial.

From the New York Commercial.
Base ball as an industry, with most tan
gible assets and Invisible income, is GER
tainly worth consideration, especially at the
close of a season like this of 1906 A fair
illustration of the possibilities Of the ma
tional game as an income producer was
afforded this year after the close Of the
season proper, and the development of the
fact that the two pennant winners were
the two Chicago teams. The six games
that followed in order to determine which
of the two clubs was entitled to the world 8
championship brought out an attendance in
a single week, and under unfavorable con-
ditions of weather, that contributed $685.
$50 to the clubs receipts. In other words,
after allowing $33.423 for the expenses of
the week. there was divided among the
club owners the sum of $44, 695, and among
the players about $50, 402. When the win
ming players receive $1,S75 and the losing
players $40 each from the receipts of a
week, there is naturally emulation to
achieve pace in a pennant holder among
the clubs Could the books for the season
be examined. there would doubtless be
found from the ordinary weekly receipts
a very gratifying showing for base ball.
purely as a business enterprise.

Edible Menus.
From the London Daily Express.

From the London Daily Express.
The latest thing in astronomical art Is
the edible menu. After serving the pur-
pose of the ordinary dinner program ii will
be eaten as a sweet.
The edible menu is the invention of Herr
Willy of Francis street. Tottenham court
road, who is perhaps the greatest sugar
icing expert in the world. Not only Is 1t
sweet that most people enjoy. it is also an
artistic ornament for the table.
The sweet menu is made of pink marzi-
pan, the program being written in the finest
sugar icing. The lettering is exquisitely
fashioned. for Herr Willy is an artist, and
from his sugar icing school or academy the
best kitchens in the land have been sun
piled. The menu itself is inclosed in a
little standing up box. with support at
the back.
Herr Willy il not little proud Of his
edible menus He does not fear compe-
tition. for few sugar icers have the firm
ness of touch necessary to make the let
tering on the menus.
From a practical point Of view his in
vention will be of assistance to hostesses.
Instead of laboriously thinking out new
sweet. all thew will have to do in future
is to ask their guests kindly to eat their
menus.

Increasing Age Of Heroines.

The age of the heroine In novels" we
are told. has been steadily going up.
There was time when the young girl Of
seventeen or twenty was the only possible
heroine Of romance. Now she may fig
ure in a story. but 1t will be more as
side character than as the leading lady, :"
There are doubtless fashions In these
things. The ugly heroine came In about
the middle of the last century. She is now,
poor girl, no more She fiourished with
the ugly hero, which was surely rather
hard fortune for both Of them. The
thought of a procession Of aged heroines
seems to suggest deeper seriousness than
we have been used to. That, however,
may do us no harm.

The Stovepipe Hat.

From the New York Tribune
A French physician has been taking notes
on the temperature in high hats. In the
early morning, when the doctor was walk
ing in the Bots de Boulogne, while the
shade temperature was II degrees, the in
strument inside the hat registered 80 de-
grees. At noon, when the outer air was at
so degrees, the temperature inside the hat

From the London Spectator.
Leaves do not fall from the tree because
they are ''dead'-which we may take as
equivalent to saying because they are no
longer receiving the constituents of their
being from the sap and from the airAbut
as a consequence of a process Of growth
which develops just atsthe junction of the

of the tree certain cornlike cells which

turning out OF Denver students on record,
and the rooters were rewarded by seeing
Coach Koehler's men play by far the best
football in the history of the game at the
local institution. Colorado college and
mines students Joined with outsiders in
declaring the Denver team, although out
matched in weight and experience, showed
q wider knowledge of the game than their
opponents especially in the first half,
when the Colorado boys were literally
played off their feet.
For the Colorado eleven the better part
of the game was played by Quarterback
Will Trudigan, who, in addition to being
the brains and life OF the eleven, kicked
with exceptional judgment, made the long
est gains for his side and was a tower of
strength on the defense Paddock Nor
rill Thomas and Barr were also much in
evidence.
For the University of Denver Lieber and
Harmon played a sturdy and effective
game in the line. Sabin was one of the
stars of the game, and Renick, on the
other end, gave an excellent account Of
himself. On the whole the Denver back
field outplayed the several sets of backs
used by Colorado. Brusse kicked well
and smashed effectively on defense.
Roesch made repeated gains on cross
tackle bucks through openings made by
Lieber. The remarkable fact about Den
ver's showing was that compared with
their opponents the players were compaTa
atINely inexperienced and over half of
them were playing their first college
game.
