The Lobster Supply.

According TO official bulletins the
Holsters of the Maine waters are again

ton, Rhode Island in a long time has
not yielded many, and around Block
island an industry that had been abon-
doned seven or eight years ago again
paws the fishermen handsomely Two
years ago 140.O00,000 small Holsters
Matched artificially at Boothbay bay
were liberated on the coast OF Maine
in the self-help stage. Like trout, they
had to be kept confined until they de
veloped sufficiently to look out for
themselves, for when first Matched the
young lobster swims upon the surface
a perfectly helpless animal, and only
settles TO the bottom by the time il
becomes pugnacious.
Scientists testify that the first lit

from nine to eleven inches long, is
about 5000 to 10000 eggs, and then

THE NAVAL SPEED RUNS
Opinion OF Naval Engineers That Best
Speed Is Ia Deepest Wafer

The naval board of inspection for
ships has completed the series of runs
conducted with the battleship Michi-
gan and the torpedOboat destroyers
FIusser and Reid over the three stand
ard courses off Delaware Breakwater,
off Providence, and off Rockland.
1t will be some time before the
conclusions of the board may be form
ed, as there is a great volume of sta
tistical material to be digested and
tabulated before the views of the
observers may be finally stated
Enough is known, however, to realize
that the opinion entertained all along
by the naval engineers has been sus-
tanned to the effect that ships make
the best speed in the deepest water.
The Michigan made LOG runs over
the three courses and nearly 900 indi-
Gator cards were taken. Each of the
torpedo boats made AZ runs over the
Rockland course, 80 runs over the
Provincetown course and 80 runs over
the Delaware Breakwater course.

BEATING the Postofice.

Here is a curious process by VIII, 4
the French post Office was beaten.
A wealthy merchant who refused TO
pay an excess fee was sued by the
postal authorities and lost the suit,
He retaliated by building a shanty in
a remote district of the Hautes Alpes,
about twenty miles from any post
office. and installing therein a shep-
herd, in whose name he subscribed TO
the daily Petit Journal.
According to the terms of the postal
monopoly in France, the department
is bound to provide a daily service
wherever required, and it would have
been necessary to engage postman
solely for the delivery of this newspa-
per. as no other house is to be found
within a radius of about eight miles.
The postoffice, sooner than embark
on an expenditure OF about $340 a
year, consented to forego the ten cen
times q cents in dispute, pay the de
PENDANTS costs, and compensate the
shepherd for the loss of his daily pa
per.

SANITARY DRINKING CUP
To Be Used On Chesapeake Beach This
Summer

: The Chesapeake Beach Railway, in
accordance with the recommendations
Of leading health authorities, will use
Individual drinking cups in all its cars
this summer The service will be
installed in few days.
In each car q small nickel-plated
vendor holding about one hundred
paper paraffine cups will be placed be
side the water cooler The cups are
visible. being stacked upside-down in
dIst-proof glass tube. One cup is
released at time by pulling a small
handle.
Several boards of health in this vi
cinity have condemned the common
drinking cup. Experiments have
proved that diptheria, pneumonia, the
grip and other diseases are passed
from one person to many by means of
public drinking enps.
. Massachusetts has recently passed a
law abolishing the public drinking
cup in schools and on trains, and sim
liar rulings have been put into effect
by the state boards of health of Mich
igan, Kansas Oklahoma and Wisconsin.

enhancing the appearance of that magni-
fcent hall. The instrument-manufac-
tured by Mason & Hamlin, of the style
'E' one purchased from the Cable Co.
is one of great merit and value, and is a
great addition to the school, The old
piano has been moved to the hall on the
first floor. and is used chiefly for furnish
ing music for the pupils to march into and
out of the building. This innovation has
been joyfully welcomed by all: marching
in to the strains of music puts everyone in
a cheerful hum6r for the days work and
is of great assistance in keeping the lines
of the marchers in good order.

All saints' Dav.

Last Tuesday was All Saints Day, and as
is the custom throughout the country, and
especially in south Louisiana, the solemn
and beautiful rites connected with the
-honored feast were appropriately
carried out The tender memories which
hover around the last resting place of the
dead are nowhere cherished more sa-
credly or held in greater reverence than
by the people of our community, and on
the occasion of All Saints Day the
graves of those asleep in the silent cities
of the dead are always strewn with fra
grant blossoms brought by loving relatives
and friends as a tribute of remembrance
to the dear departed. The floral offerings
this year were exceptionally elaborate,
and the throngs at all of the cemeteries
unusually large, testifying that our love
and devotion to those who have crossed
over the river is strong and true. The
weather was ideal and afforded full op-
portunity for the proper observance of the
sacred day.

Weather Interferes with Lawn Fete.


Owing to the cold weather, the lawn
fete and open-air festival given last Mon
day afternoon and evening on the grounds
of the Lemann residence at the corner of
Houmas street and Nichols avenue was
not as well attended as would doubtless
have been the case had the atmospheric
conditions been more favorable, and
therefore was not as successful as had
been anticipated This result is sincerely
to be regretted, since the entertainments
was given for most worthy cause.-the
raising of funds for the establishment of a
permanent public library in this city-and
had been planned and carried out by Mrs.
F. B. Lemann and other public-spirited
women of the community at the expendi-
ture of no little time. labor and money.
Despite the unfavorable conditions a fair
amount was realized, but had the festival
been as literally patronized as its merits
justified this sum would have been in
creased ten-fold and the entertainment
would have resulted in one of the most
successful and enjoyable affairs of its
character on record in this community.
