New York, March Some thing new was observed yesterday in good old Ann street, in which the smart New York boy showed off in great shape. Several men were gathered on the pavement, among them a young man about o5 H, wasn't troubling anything CT any body, when suddenly boy about 12 years old ran up to him. and Jumping up to reach lis face. planted several stinging blows in his face. The man pushed the boy off, but he had no more released the lad than lie sprang again a the mans face, again delivering a lof of blows that must have mado him smart. The man again pushed the boy away, this time moro roughly, but he did not strike him. Again the boy rushed at him. de- livering blows as before, landing by his feat. of sprinsins up like a little gamecock to reach his face. This time the man took his head in his hand and slapped his faee smartly. and then let him go, and started from the scene The boy started to follow him, and eVi- dently intended to plant some more

been very heavy the exposition has
been benefited slightly in comparison to
the surrounding and adjacent territory.
The railroads have contributed to this
outcome by establishing validating off,

is equivalent to saying he is natural

very popular in Washington circles and
his long term Of service in the army. and
especially AZ adjutant-general has given
him an insight into governmental affairs,

Of great value to his district. His friends

that General Corbin still retains a senti-

A GOOD HOME RECIPE
Says Any One Can Prepare i,
and Nothing Better.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states well7known authority.
Every man, woman and child here should
dress as warmly as possible, and, above
all else, keep the feet dry. Avoid colds
and exposure, and don't become con-
stipated.
Rheumatism is strictly blood disease,
caused by inactive kidneys, which,
through cold or exposure or improper
diet, fail in their duty Of filtering the
rheumatic poisons from the blood. This
poisonous waste matter, uric acid, oxil-
ate of lime, urea, etc, if not strained
from the blood promptly, decomposes
and settles about the joints and muscles
causing rheumatic disease.
In damp or chilly cold weather the
kidneys are made to do double work

WILD LIFE IN JAMAICA.
~~~~~~~~%~~%~%e~~<

In Kingston, Jamaica, the vultures
are greatly valued as scavengers and a
heavy fine is the penalty for killing one
Of them. They are to be seen every
where and, as they are never molested
they regard mankind with Indifference,
Another bird which Is protected Is the
pelican, which may be seen grubbing
about In the shallow waters Of King
ston harbor at almost any time. The
natives name for the vulture Is John
Grow" and the pelican they call "Old
Joe."
Jamaica has many song birds, the
chief Of them being variety of mock
ing bird, larger than that found In the
southern states of this country and
somewhat diffently marked. AS song
ster 1t is very sweet, but 1t seems
scarcely as animated In its singing as
Is the delirious warbler of the gulf
states. 1t is called nightingale by
the Jamaicans, with their English ira
ditions to direct them, but it resem-
bles that songster even less than does
the American mocking bird.
Poisonous snakes and destructive su-
gar rats caused the Importation of the
mongoose from India into jamaica
years ago. This lively little animal
killed off the snakes and thinned out
the sugar rats, but 1t especially en-
joyed destroying the chickens. Now it
Is a costly nuisance. All the island
poultry has to be kept within wire net
ting and usually above the ground and
the price Of eggs Is high.
There are few flies or mosquitoes In
the island, but there are swarms of
the most villainous ticks, which have to
be guarded against continually. To
walk across a pasture or, in fact, to
step off beaten path or roadway is re-
garded as a very foolish performance
by Jamaican. Strangers usually be-
gin by running headlong into danger
and then repenting in haste.

THE SUGAR WE EAT.
Average of seventy-nve Pounds 9
Year for Every Person.

Average of seventy-five Pounds 9
Year for Every Person.
He would have an idle mind indeed
who, as he dropped his one or two
Jumps into his morning coffee. turned
to wondering how many pounds of su-
gar he uses in one way or another dur
Ing twelvemonth, and if he tried to
guess he would probably hit far from
the truth, says the Providence Journal.
When, however, the government gives
the information, as it does In a state
ment given out recently through
the Department Of Commerce and
Labor, the busiest man may with
out loss Of self-respect give passing mo-
tiee to the curious fact The total con-
sumption Of sugar in this country for
the last year for which complete fig
ures are In the governments posses
sion aggregate almost two and three
quarters millions of tons, an average
annual consumption for each inhabit-
ant Of about seyenty-five pounds. This
makes us the largest ugar-consuming
country in the world, though in per
capita consumption the British surpass
u.s.
OF course, however, this is a matter
Of no significant interest compared with
the chief fact brought out in this re-
port. that in the list of commodities i'm
ported into the United States last year,
greater in value than In any year be-
fore, sugar was by far the largest sim
gle item. This is fact which has an
obvious bearing on more than one
question Of national legislation, and
which should be kept firmly fixed in
mind, even though we may safely for
get, almost as soon as we have read,
the precise quantity that each Of us
takes into the stomach in the course
Of a year. A commodity of which we
import SO much-more than a hundred
and fifty million dollars worth In 1905
necessarily requires special consider
alton in any arrangements that may be
made regarding our foreign trade.
We are to-day not only the largest
consumers of sugar in the world, but
we are steadily and rapidly increasing
our consumption-so rapidly, indeed,
that though the sugar producers at
home, both cane and beet, are con-
tinually adding to their output they
are not at all keeping pace with the
growing home demand. The quantity
from abroad has doubled in the last
twenty years, while the population has
increased but 80 per cent. AS in the
meantime every reasonable pecuniary
inducement has been offered for the
production of sugar at home, it is clear
that we must continue to depend main
ly on foreign supplies for our multiply
ing requirement.

Friendship with wiId LIE.

If fairy had ever offered to grant
me three wishes, ''the full confidence
of wild animals" would surely have
been one Of them, and probably the
first. If we seek opportunities to be-
friend wild creatures and take advan-
tage of them we shall often find, as l
have done, that there is no lack of re-
sponse on the part Of the animals. I
once walked up to pine siskin as he
was feeding on the ground and picked
him up in my hand. He did not seem
bit alarmed, and when, a few minutes
later, l set him down, he continued his
search for food within a few inches of
my feet. On another occasion a yellow
throated yireo allowed me to lift her
from her nest when | wished to count
her eggs, and nestled down comfortably
on her treasures the moment | put her
back. With a forefinger once stroked
