Reporting Dead Cats.
ON the New York Sun

From the New York Sun.
A favorite dodge policemen work on pay
day to get their envelopes from the station
before theY report OF duty Is to find dead
cat somewhere along their beat. BY orders
of the department they are required to re-
port this find to the station Immediately
but nothing hinders a friendly cop from
passing the cat over the line into another
policemans territory. Then he. too may
report to- the station the discovery OF a
dead cat. But at the West 37th street sta
ton house the other day the sergeant be-
hind the desk got wise when five of his
men reported dead cat within two hours
He ordered a roundup OF half dozen
street cleaners on 10th avenue. and with
one accord the white wings testified that
IL was a discarded muff which the cops had
been reporting and then passing along
down the line.

ROMANS ADULTERATED WINE.
Tricks of Trade Not Peculiar to the
Present Generation.

From the Spatula.
The Greeks and Romans had their trou-
bles no less than we of today. Pliny tells
us that the bakers of Rome Used to mix
with their dough white earth that was
soft to the touch and sweet to the taste.
and so made bread that had weight and
good appearance, but no food value.
He also speaks Of wine adulteration. and
says that even the rich could not be sure
that their beverages were pure. The IA
nous wines of Palermo were adulterated In
the cellars. and wines from Gaul were ar
tificially colOred by aloes and other drugs.
In Athens wine adulteration was so COM
mon that special inspectors were appointed
to detect and stop the practice.
One Canthare, a wine merchant, made his
mark on the page Of history because of his
skill in giving the fiavors Of old age and
maturity to new wines. and in his zine the
phrase artificial as Canthare'' was the
common expression for clever deceit.
Throughout Europe. from the eleventh CEN
fury onward. food adulteraton was very
generally practiced by bakers. brewers
spicemongers and winners
So we see that the wine dealer who mixes
alcohol. water. color. sugars and fiavoring
essences together and calls 1t genuine Cali
fornia wine is doing no new thing: that the
modern baker who makes Short-weight
loaves out of damaged grains Is but walk
ing in the footsteps his craft made on the
streets of Rome 1000 years ago: that the
druggist who sells impure chemicals, the
spice grinder who mixes sawdust with his
spices. the miller who grinds cornmeal with
his flour, the brewer who makes bad beer
and the butcher who sells unwholesome
meat are not modern pests at all. Every
one of them is but putting into present day
practices the tricks that have bothered
trade and cheated the consumer for 1000
years or more.

Fun Enough for All.
There was fun enough for all. as well as
plenty Of glory. In the strenuous water polo
contest, which was fought cut to finish
In the briny breakers at the bathing beach
by two sturdy teams Of Shriners. A large,
alright rubber ball Of considerable buoy
ancy and elusiveness was thrown out on the
dancing waves and proved to be the center
Of q number Of lively overheard skirmishes
and tussles between members OF the con-
tending teams. So fierce were some OF
the rushes through the breakers for the
ball that several of the poloists lost the
major parts of their abbreviated bathing
costumes, and were compelled to keep be-
meath the waves until they could swim
ashore and make their escape from the
public gaze beneath the boardwalk pier.
This pier was crowded with men. women
and children. who eagerly watched the ex-
citing and at times funny. overheard play.
The members Of the teams "ducked' each
other and INDUCED In many collar-and-
elbow and catch-as- catch-can bouts In the
breakers in their efforts to get the bouncing
ball and put it over the goal Their ef-
