Difficult to Find New Odors

A NEW perfume of excellent odor Is a rare
product of the perfumers art The re-
sources of the trade appear to be pretty well ex-
plotted. and it is becoming increasingly difficult
to concoct new Yet ample reward awaits
the ingenious composer of this invisible and
inaudible music The world IS eagerly wait

perfume as it IS for new musical production
to ravish the imag inatlon But the harmony
must be there. blending OF odors in bouquet
that does not offend There must be no false
notes in the composition.
One of Paris most noted perfumers spends a
small fortune every year IN experimenting with
new perfumes. In his extensive laboratory
there are gathered all the raw materials of the
world for manufacturing perfumery,-attar
of roses violets jasmine. tuberose and cassia
from the Valley of the Var; altar OF thyme.
lavender and peppermint from Surrey; am
bergr1s. castor. clvet and musk from the
Hmalayas. aloe. cedar, and santal from Pales-
tine; cinnamon. cascara nutmeg. lemon and
lime from the tropics of South America and
Africa; and all the synthetic Installations from
coal tar refuse. and mineral products. With
these essential odors and their many modifca-
tions, he works the magic of modern perfumery
1t IS not an art to be learned IN day or even
acquired IN a lifetime by those not gifted with
delicate sense of odors. Since the beginning
of history perfumes have been used. and either
in the form of religious incense or for personal
qualification they have figured in great events

in odors thus finds little help in scanning the
literature of the past With the
products that the world has always employed,
he must devise harmony of odors that
will be pleasing to the sense.

Gerbracht former superintendent OF the
Havemeyer & Elder plant of the Ameri-
can Sugar Refining Company. Collector
Loeb said that an official higher up had
been indicted.
The sleeper trunk frauds are not
peculiar to the port of New York. but
most of them were committed there. and
probably thirty of the indictments of this
character will be brought by the federal
grand jury now in session at New York
Mr.. Loeb had long conference to-
day with Secretary MacVeagh. They
went over the details of the New York
situation, and Mr.. Loeb was told TO go
straight ahead" in his campaign TO Grad
icate fraud Mr.. MacNeagh again as
sured him that the Treasury Department
is in hearty sympathy with his efforts TO
stanr out every form of graft and 10
make the New York Custom House alb
soluteIv free from suspicion in all its
branches.
Mr. Loeb refused TO discuss the details
of his interview with the Secretary. but
let IN be known that the federal grand
iurv has not exhausted its efforts to
punish customs thieves.
The fact that the grand jury Is on the
trail of persons implicated in defrauding
the government by means of sleeper
trunks" is especially pleasing 10 Mr..
Loeb He estimates that by this species
of fraud the government has been robbed
of about $2.0O0O0U i'm duties There is
no intimatiOn as 10 the persons impli-
Gated in these frauds. but il is under
stood that the customs officials believe
they will eventually collect a consider
able portion of the duties payment of
which has been evaded.
Mr.. Loeb expressed his satisfaction
ove- the outcome OF the trial of the for

Refining Company. Very satisfactory,

II is plain that somehow or other the
government has stood to lose pretty con-

concerned. The digging into the records
of the Custom House and those of the
big refineries has got far enough TO keep
the heads of the big concerns a bit wor-

has been a noticeable eagerness on the
part of the corporations to settle their
back bills with as little fuss as possible.
NO IMMUNITY PROMISES.
1t may be said positively, however, that
in the settlements already made or in
those that may be made the only favor
extended to the corporations will be- as
has been. the opportunity to pay lust

Everything was south to the "Dekes'

members of Delta Kappa Epsilon heard
Commander Peary tell them that every
thing was south from the pole" and
didn't the dinner committee of the fra

They did-and every one of the thousand
Dekes took occasion to so inform the

Peary got it and Peary gave it to them
and they proposed to make the most Of

The commander was the guest of honor,
and. besides making a brief address to his
fraternity brothers. he showed them
few pictures depicting the trip to the pole
and back.
Apart from listening to the guest of
honor, the Dekes put in a good part OF
their time yelling. They yelled for Peary,
and they yelled for the pole and they
yelled for Mrs Peary. who occupied box

Then they marched. or, rather. snake
danced, around the ballroom, the thousand

and led by the sledge that Peary took to
the pole, which was loaned for the evening
by the Museum of Natural History.

Messages were read from other D. K. Z.

Let me join with all our fellow men,
bers in the cordial congratulations and
good wishes for our heroic comrade Peary
which must be pouring upon him tonight

Commander Peary's words to his breth-

with his pictures. were brief. He arose
when Mr.. Hepburn presented a silver low

An officer of the Consolidated Milk EX-

Company insisted that the exchange have
such a certificate in its possession before
il would accept a mortgage on tract of

issued and afterward discharged but the
company retained the certificate to main
tain an office here. During the recent in
vestigation of the exchange the Attorney
General gave some attention to this trans
action and, 20 the officers of the cam
pany, appeared TO get the impression that
the concern stole into New York TO ex-
tend its business under the cover of the
mortgage. They felt that this conclusion
was unjust and decided to remove all
ground for it by Withdrawing the certifi-
cate and severing the New York COnnec-
