The fire fiend is rampant these days.
Yet when one considers, how careless
the great majority are with this spedi-
est and most destructive of the ele-
ments. the wonder is that fires are
not even more frequent. In the
blazes of the past week or so in differ
emit places the careless cigar stump
has played quite a prominent part
at seems a little thing at the time to
attend to. but If there is a law against
throwing refuse on the street there
should be an even more stringent one
against tossing away a spark capable
OF starting an expensive fire or en-
dangering human life.

Rear Admiral William p Potter,
chief of the bureau of navigation, in
his recommendation that the age for
admission of cadets into the Naval
academy shall be lower has the sup
port of facts that have time and again
been given serious attention. These
facts relate to the advanced age at
which officers arrive at commands in
the American navy Before they
reach the highest grade in the serv-
ice they are about ready for retire
ment and the great majority never
have a chance to reach those grades.

LOSE MONEY ON JAVA SUGAR
British Steamship Held Up at Break
water; Ordered 20 Boston.

After being held at Delaware Break
water since October % with cargo OF
Java sugar. the British steamship
Burnholme was ordered yesterday 10
proceed to Boston discharge 5000 tons,
on which a duty will be paid aggregat-
ing 1895 900. It was expected that this
vessel would come to Philadelphia
Ever since the price OF raw sugar
began to drop the chances OF dispos-
Ing of Java sugar cargoes among re-
ineries at this port. New York and
Boston became less certain as reports
from Cuba and other parts OF the West
Indies indicated that the sugar crop
would be unusually large. II was said
that foreign spectators hare lost
heavily on recent Java sugar ship
ments owing 10 the long delay that
ensued before cargoes were purchased.
There is still at Delaware Break
water the British steamship Clan
Maclean with an S,000-ton cargo. This
vessel arrived at the Capes on October
81. As the lay days on this vessel ex-
pired soc mtime ago the owners Of
the cargo have been compelled to pay
several thousand dollars in demur-
rage. The Cuban crop under the re-
ciprocity treaty between this country
and Cuba Is allowed TO enter here at
a minimum duty. which is much law
er than the duty levied on lava sugar
Refiners knowing that the Cuban crop
would soon be moving have refused
to pay the prices demanded for the
Java product.

SUNNI
MONDAY

Soap is cheaper than clothes
and it pays, therefore, to get
the best soap, even for laundry
purposes. The best laundry
soap made is a white soap
called "Sunny Monday" I"
which contains no rosin and
is kind to clothes. One bar of
Sunny Monday will go as far
as two bars of ordinary yellow
laundry soap which contains
rosin; its use, therefore, means
economy.
