From the died back bone OF sturgeon
which has the appearance Of macaroni,
an excellent Russian soup. called
vesiga, is made. 1t is excessively nu
tritive and invigorating. almost as
much so, indeed, as the famous beche
de mar mot mer), otherwise the ira
pang, or edible sea slug. 1t is collected
in large quantities throughout the In.
dian archipelago. especially TO the east
ward, for the China market. There
are many varieties. such as the large
scarlet trapang from Macassar, the Ku-
roke trapang from Borneo. the great
black trapang from Leuconia and many
more. Properly prepared. this is alb
solutely the most inspiring soup there
Is and is as superior to turtle as the lat
ter is to water Cruel. 1t costs about
$3.50 per pound.

alton as such. I've a right to make
my statement"
Mr.. Study returned the compliments
to Mr.. Johnson and the court room
was in laughter. Women Kissed and
the court appeared indignant and rap-
ped for order until it appeared as if
his gavel would break.
Court WouId be Nuts"
The continuation OF the argument
was the first display of legal pyrotech-
MICS that had been made during the
day. Vaughan silence and failure 10
answer Mrs. Smiths letters were de
clared to - specific evidence TO the
point and an attempt to prove letters
were written was asserted to be ad-
missable evidence. Mr.. Study argued
if a court held such evidence proper
it would be nuts" Study declared
the authorities of johnny must be

bins in his remark and at the same
time making an Indian war dance
about the table of Mr.. Robbins. There
was an evident intent on the part of
Mr.. Study TO play 10 re grand stand
in the lobby crowd and he strutted
about the room shaking his finger and
prOclaiming to the atmosphere.
The court entered into the matter
and raised an objection himself in re-
gard to the order of proof The ar
gument continued for almost an hour
after which the judge announced he
would examine the authorities an ad-
Journed the case until this morning.
This morning the attorneys for the
plaintiff withdrew their submission
and avoided a ruling on the question
before the court.

fairs in New England
The Past Year.
OLD HEADS PLAYED WELL.
BONE, DOHERTY AND CUNNING
HAM, ST., SET EVERYTHING
AFIRE WITH THEIR SPLENDID
WORK.

Ado Mansfield, one of Richmond S
native son" polo stars, has returned
from a successful season at Pawtucket,
r. l., where he played with another
member of the old Quaker Fighting
Five, George Cunningham, Sr. Ado
looks the part of an ideal athlete and
states he was never in better health.
All the members of the old Richmond
championship team are anxious to get
back here and l think that all the play
ers on the two teams that are to meet
here next week Will pull in by Sun
day" Mansfield stated.
THAT Cunningham, Sr., is never 60
ing to get old. This past season he
set the New England league circuit
Attire by his playing. He also took
part in a number of skating races and
won all of them. He is faster today
than he ever was" continued Ado.
George Bone owned the New Haven
team this year and he did not play
much the first part of the season, but
the last three weeks he got into the
game and once more showed he was
the king of all floor workers. He
still has the old habit of getting back
of his cage then making one of his
famous dashes down the floor Mans
field remarked
He stated that Barney Doherty was
also in top notch form this season and
was still recognized as one of the
greatest half-backs the game had ever
produced. Were there many good
goal tenders in the New England
league?" Mansfield was asked. Yes,
several of them, especially Sutton,
Pence and Bannon, but there was never
= goal tend like Jessup. There was
the boy that saw the ball all the time
and was there with the ginger. He is
the quickest man that ever stood be
fore a cage was the prompt answer.
Mansfield also stated that Eddie Hig-
gins was, if anything, faster than when
he played here. He was formerly a
poor driver, but Mansfield states Ed
die can drive with the best of them
now. Hart had a poor partner to
rush with this year, but this handicap
cid not prevent him from making an
excellent showing. Gardner and Cam
eron are still the cool, steady, brilliant
defense artists as of old. The two
teams the Ellis have picked to play
against each other are. to my mind
splendidly matched. and the games
should be very interesting" Mansfield
stated. He also said that all the stars
wanted to play in Indiana again next
season.

II May Be the Beginning of Serious
Mental Trouble.

II May Be the Beginning of Serious
Mental Trouble.
Some men are quite martyrs to Of
flee drowsiness," said physician to
patient who was complaining of that
feeling Amy monotonous sound near
them, the hum of traffic outside or
sufficient to induce a feeling of sleepi-
ness which it is almost impossible to
resist. The worst of it is that this
symptom seldom is regarded as any
thing serious, though l have known
it to be the beginning of critical mental
trouble. Far more often, however, 1t
is merely the effect of constitutional
eccentricity, though in either case a
few simple remedies might be tried
with advantage.
For example, 1 always advise the
old indigestion cure-a glass of hot
water-when the feeling comes on. To
keep the eyes tightly closed for two
or three minutes and then battle them
in very warm water often gives relief
at once. And another good idea Is to
lower the head for a few seconds to a
level with the knees. Above all, one
should never give in to the feeling OF
drowsiness by taking a short nap in
the hope Of waking up brighter after
it. At the same time the condition of
the office might be looked to. The
slightest defect in ventilation will
often cause one man to be affected by
office drowsiness even if other persons
in the same room feel nothing of II
