OF THE
SAKE IMPORTERS

In spite of the ruling under the Pure
Food law that sake adulterated with
salicylic acid as preventative cannot
be admitted as an import, which ruling
it was thought would cause a drouth
in the sake drinking districts, there has
been no suffering reported. Sake con-
tinues to come in in increasing quanti-
tics; in fact, the absence of the pre-
servative allowing some of it to go to
waste before the consumption point is
reached.
Sake, pure and unadulterated, will
keep untainted for twenty-four days,
but at the end of thirty days it will
have soured 80 badly that even the
thirstiest field hand will pass it by.
For this reason the shipments arriving
here from the japanese breweries are
less in quantity but more frequent,
every Japanese steamer bringing its
sake freight. The Japanesel brewers
have written to their customers here
that the life of the juice can be pre-
served by bringing the liquor to the
boiling point, although this results in
considerable diminution in the guam
tity. A boiling insures the preservation
of the sake for an additional three
weeks.
The japanese here concluded that the
boiling process would settle their diff
culties, but met with an unexpected
snag when they called to consult Col
lector of Internal Revenue Drake. AT
ter looking up the law, Drake informed
the Japanese that before they would be
allowed to boil their sake they would
have to take out a brewers license and
pay the internal revenue duties on their
retubbed product, which would be con-
sidered as a new product in the eyes
of the law.
The Japanese are figuring now to see
whether the loss through souring of
their national drink is big enough to
justify the taking out of a brewing
license

REAR ADMIRAL Caps
ON PEARL HARbOR

Chronicle, Aug, 2.-Rear- Admiral w.
l.. Capps, chief of the Naval Bureau of
Construction and Repair, who sailed
to Hawaii on board, the battleship Kan
sas of the Atlantic fleet. returned yes
terday on the Siberia. During the Ad-
miral s stay in the islands he witnessed
the target practice and battle maneu-
vers of the squadron, and made an ex-
tended tour of inspection to Pearl Har.
Dor. During the voyage the battle
ships of the feet were in excellent con-
dition, and there were no accidents or
cases of illness. The target practice
demonstrated that the gunnery of the
crews was of the very highest order
and was being constantly improved.
Pearl Harbor, the site of the pro-
posed naval station and dockyards, is
regarded by naval experts as the most
important base in the Pacific ocean,
situated as it is within striking dis
lance of both continents. Congress re-
Gently made an appropriation of 81 ,000-
900 for the fertilization of the harbor,
and larger appropriations are expected
in the near future.
During his stay on this Coast Az
miral Capps will inspect the me-.
yards at Mare Island and Bremei l..
When his tour of inspection is compIe-
ted, he will proceed to Washington to
make his report to the Secretary of
tho Navy. Admiral Capps recently ac-
quired considerable prominence by his
public defense of the bureau system in
the Navy, which had been made the
subject of much severe adverse criti-
cism by Henry Reuterdahl.

THE KAISER BARRED
OUT BY HIS SENTRY

SWINEMUNDE, August 4.-Em-
peror Williams new style of wearing
his mustache caused him to be refused
admission to one of the coast forts
here just before he departed on his
trip to Sweden. The Emperor, accom-
panied by several officers, the entire
party in civilian dress and wearing
Panama hats, approached the entrance
to the west battery, where the sentry
prevented their further progress.
His majesty much amused, again
vainly tried to pass by. He said to the
sentry: "You must let me pass. Don It
you know met am the Emperor"
The sentry then looked more closely
at the Emperor, not quite treasured,
but evidently recognized his majesty 8
features, as he presented arms and al
lowed him to pass.
The Emperor reported the occurrence
to the officer of the guard at the fort,
praising the soldiers sense of duty and
recommending his promotion.

GERMANY's MODEL TENEMENT
LAWS.

Germany has more stringent and hui
name tenement-house laws than any
American, city. Around Berlin the best
blocks of buildings are only two rooms
in thickness, have abundant conrt
space, supply inclosed Fairgrounds for
the tenants children, give each family
a balcony for flowers and contain a
hall for social intercourse. The outer
air can be passed freely through the
apartments, the floors are made sound
proof, double windows exclude the
noises of the street, while construction
really fireproof robs the tenement of
one of its terrors. Many of these
blocks are owned by cooperative asso-
Citations of workmen, mostly themselves
occupants, to which the government
loans money at low rate from the
surplus of the state old age pension
fund. There are in Germany 7l5 of
these cooperative societies, the largest
of which owns 1900 tenement houses
and capitalization of $6,250000. This
stock company form of house-owning
has the great advantage that a stock
holder, while he practically owns his
own apartment, is able to transfer his
shares when his work calls him else
where much more easily than he could
sell separate small house.--Charities
