wishes to call attention To one point which
cannot be too strongly emphasized. viz;
that no matter what insecdclde for the

truth Of this statement may be moro fully
appreciated when It Is realized that sew

Troubles of Terriers

Toy terriers in London have troubles
almost equal to those OF Boston
dogs. who have to stay in the house
or suffer their heads to be placed in
muzzles.
The London County Council has com
manded that dogs shall not appear in
public without collars, and every col
lar must bear the owners name and
address in full. This, OF course. ap-
plies TO the tiniest OF terriers as well
as to the hugest st. Bernard or Great
Dane.
Hitherto the necks Of the little dogs
have been encircled with bangled and
jeweled bands or satin ribbons. The
aristocratic nose or one OF London's
pretty society women is red with
weeping AT the new edict She has a
tiny dog Of Russian breed, with no
hair and a peculiar tinge OF blue under
its skin. who never has worn anything
except a necklace Of pink coral. He
is far too sensitive to wear a heavy COL
lar. She says she may solve the
problem by having her name and ad-
dress embroidered on band OF satin.

Kerosene Emulsion.

kerosene emulsions have been used
in combating scale-insects for many years
and their value as an insecticlde for suck
ing insects was long ago established. The
main objection TO their use has been found
in the fact that their preparation. by the
old-fashioned methods. was a slow and
laborious process. The formula and di-
rections usually given for the standard
emulsion are as follows:
Hard soap. z round; kerosene, l gall
lon; water z gallon. Cut the soap into
thin slices and boil IN the water until dis
solved. then add the hot suds 10 the
kerosene. An ordinary bucket pump. htted
with a short piece Of hose and nozzle
with about one-quarter inch aperature
should then be used to churn tho mixture
until a perfect emulsion has formed.
when in this condition it Is thick and
creamy and white in color. Tho emulsion
thus made contains about 66 per cent.
kerosene, and this nsy be readily dilute d
with water TO give any per cent. desired.
When 50 diluted It should be applied in
the form OF a enc spray.
Tor the San Jose Scale, while the trees
are dormant. a % per cont to 3 per cent.
emulsion should be used. To obtain this,
add parts OF water TO ] part Of the
stock emulsion, os5 per cent OLD. describ-
ed above.

TOBACCO A NECESSITY.
Controller So Holds in Panama Canal
Case.

The controller of the treasury ruled today
that an expenditure by the Panama canal
commission for tobacco to be supplied to
laborers held in quarantine was proper
and lawful charge against the government
under the authority to purchase supplies.
The amount involved was only $3.50. 1t
had been expended under direction of the
sanitary department Of the Panama canal
commission for tobacco supplied to laborers
who-had been held at Colon in quarantine
and had mutinied because they were de-
prived of the weed.
Tobacco has long since been recognized
as a necessity and not luxury among
laboring men-I mean the class of common
laborers employed on public works-and es-
pecially with this class when in confine-
ment" says the controller. "A person in
quarantine Is practically in confinement.
All penitentiaries and other similar insti-
tutions have recognized this fact. Even
insane asylums issue tobacco to certain
patients.
Tobacco issued under the circumstances.
under which the tobacco in question was
purchased and issued. is not a gratuity any
more than the purchase and issue of coffee
would be gratuity. The use Of these
nerve stimulantS, narcotics, or whatever
they may be termed, may be deleterious
to health, but humanity, as 1t is constituted.
and especially the class in question, has
become habituated to their use and when
such persons are confined these things are
both meat and drink to them and. in my
judgment are proper supplies to be kept
and used at quarantine stations"

ELECTRIC COMPANIES COMPLAIN.
Say They Are Not Treated Fairly by
Railways at Schenectady.

Complaint has been made to the inter-
state commerce commission by the General
Electric Company and the Edison General
Electric Company against. the New York
Central and Hudson River railroad and
the Delaware and Hudson road concerning
the failure Of the defendants to furnish the
switching facilities at the plants of the two
compliments. The two companies allege
that they have large plants at Schenectady,
N. Y, aggregating 134 acres. with over 100
buildings. They do a large business, and
they are compelled to maintain a track and
locomotive system for loading and switch
ing their cars and transferring them to the
main line. work which they state should be
performed by the railroads, and which the
railroads perform for other manufacturers
having plants in the same region. They de-
clare that they do business amounting to
$40, 600 600 a year at these plants. and that
they use $4,000 cars annually. Last year
they claim that they expended on the rail-
read system at the plants, for work that
should have beenaperformed by the rail-
roads. 1000. They ask that the commits
sion fix just rate that shall be paid to
them for the service they perform. and
which the railroad does for nothing for
neighboring plants. What they want is pay
ment for the actual cost of their service and
interest on their investment in plant.

Pays Delahunty $1s,O52.26 in Salts
faction of Modified Judgment.

special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, June 14.Richard A. Can
held. gambler, has settled the suit brought
against him by John Delahunty, lawyer, to
recover some $4,000 for legal services. by
paying Delahunty s1S.O5226 This fact was
MADE public today by the entry in the
county clerks Office of the satisfaction of a
modihed Judgment for $1S,05226 against
Canheld and in favor of Delahunty The
ming OF such satisfaction usually means
that the Judgment has been settled by the
payment OF the amount of the satisfaction.
When Delahuntys suit against Garfield
was tried about year ago a jury before
Justice Newburger returned verdict for
the full amount Deahunty had sued on
two causes for action, each for $50, 500. The
Jury'S verdict for the full amount less
certain credits allowed by the court to Cam
neid. made the judgments amount to $40 800
The appellate division then reversed this
Judgment unless Delahunty would agree to
accept reduction Of So. 500 AS the de-
clsion OF the appellate division was unani-
nous. Garfield could not appeal and all
he could get In event of Delahunty's refusal
to accept the reduction was second trial
of the suit. By refusing to accept the re-
auction Delahunty was entitled to a new
trial. which would. in event of his winning
another large verdict, give Garfield another
appeal to the appellate division.
