MILK IN THE C0COANUT
DeIusion That Fluid Has Anything In
Common With Real Milk
Dissipated.

Probably everybody has wondered
at times what kind of stuff the milk"
of the cocoanut is One inducement
generally held out by the dealer to
the prospective purchaser is that the
nuts are "all milky Recent
analysis, however, have dissipated
the delusion that the fluid has any
thing in common with real milk It
contains only four per cent of solids,
consisting chiefly of sugars 2.s per
cent. the balance being made up OF
mineral matter and tartaric acid
More than half of the sugar pres
ent is mannitol. the sweet principle
of mama which is sometimes found
also in wine as q product of normal
grape sugar. The question has been
discussed as to whether It would be
profitable to extract the cocosnut wa
ter for the sake of it's cane sugar,
but as this amounts to only one-tenth
per cent. the process would not be
commercially successful, in spite of
the water being waste product
Even If the water contained five per
cent. of sugar, as some specimens
appear to have shown, the recovery
of this amount would be unprofita BILE.
The juice of the sugar cane yields
nearly 20 per cent. of sugar.

MAKING OF PLAYING CARDS
supposed to Have Been invented for
Amusement of Deransed King
of France.

The invention of playing cards has
been variously attributed to the Chi
nese, HfndOOs, Arabians and Romans
but cards as now used were invented
by Jacques Grirgonneur, a painter. in
Paris. in the fourteenth century. They
were supposed to have been first made
for the amusement of Charles VI. of
France, who was deranged. The
French had particular names for the
IL court cards. The four kings were
David, Alexander, Caesar and Charles:
the four queens, Argine, Esther. Ju-
dith and Pallas, the four knaves or
knights. Ogier the Dane, Lancelot- La
Hire and Hector de Garland
Cards seem originally to have been
brought to England from Spain, prob
ably having been introduced into that
country by the Moors The clubs, in
Spanish. were not trefoils, as with US,
but cudgels, I. e, "bastos," and the
spades or swords, "espadas" Cards at
first were stamped from wood blocks
In outline and filled in by hand, but
after the invention of engraving the
best artists engraved them on copper
and struck them off at once. "Colum-
bines' were spades. rabbits clubs:
"pinks, diamonds, and roses"
hearts. Human figures, opposed to
those of flowers and animals, were the
ancestors of court cards.

We ARE NEARING THE END.
Adyentists Think War Presages Christ's
Coming and End Of World.

Washington, Oct. 12-The second
coming of Christ and the end Of
the world are presaged by the war
in which Turkey and Italy are en-
gagged. This is the view held by
the Seventh Day Adventists. ac-
cording to Rev. Kit G. Russell. OF
Tokoma Park. D. G.. an exponent
of that faith.
The Adventists have maintain
ed for many years." said Mr. Rus
sell, that the refusal of the pow
ers to help the Turk. his final ex-
pulsion from Europe, and the
scramble for his territory by the
nations, would be the signal for
the second appearance of Christ.
The basis for this belief is the pro-
phesies in the Bible. In the Book
of Daniel is found:
And He shall plant the taber.
nacles of His palace beween the
seas and the glorious holy mount;
yet he shall come to His end aud
none shall help Him.
The parsonage referred to is
conceded by commentators to be
none other than the Turk S empire
The text shows that this power
shall come to his end and none
shall help him. Then Christ shall
come and deliver his people. every
|one that shall be found writteA il
the book.
Mr.. Russell construed the plant
ing of the tabernacles of the Turk /
place, between the seas and the
glorious holy mountains. +" to NEAR
tina the Ottoman would transfer his
capital to Jerusalem. he said the
Adventists depot attempt to say
just when the events would take
place. but consider the present i'm
broglio as a step toward their con.
summation.

STAND FOR Low FREIGHT RATES.
Commercial Secretaries will Combat
Action Of Railroad Commission in
Raising Freight Rates.

Columbus, Oct. 11.t-At the re-
quest of several Commercial organ
izations of the state the jackson
Board of Trade has called meet
ing Of the business men of Missis-
sippi to convene at Jackson at 8 a.
M, October 18th for the purpose
|of combating the action of the
Mississippi Railroad Commissioners
in abolishing all Mississippi clas-
sifications of freight and substitute
ing therefor the Southern classifi-
cation. 1t is the opinion of those
men of Mississippi who have stud
/ led the question involved that the
jobbing trade of Mississippi will
be at least very materially damag-
ed If the proposed change becomes
effective and that the cost of living
in Mississippi will be increased
while the gamers will be the rail-
roads and the great jobbing houses
of Birmingham, Memphis, New
Orleans and Mobile. The people of
Mississippi have been given but
little time to study the question,
but in the time that has been spent
upon it the proposed change has
been discovered to raise the rate of
$50 classes of freight, while the re-
duction will be made on only 247
classes, making net gain for the
railroads of 339 IL classes. The
burden thus about to be put upon
the people Of Mississippi will be
almost unbearable. The Columbus
Business League is conducting a
state wide publicity, campaign to
lprevent the adoption Of this rule.
Business men and the commercial
secretaries of Mississippi are being
urged to attend the conference at
jackson on the 18th and responses
are coming into the Business
/ Leagues office in every mail indi-
lcate that the people of Mississippi
are awakening to the danger that
confronts them.

San Francisco, Cal, Dee. 3O.-Jim-
my Comroth has seriously entered the
field for the Johnson Flynn match and
the promoter of most OF our champion
ship matches today declared that he
is entertaining great hopes of bring
ing the pair together on July 4 at Re-
no. All that is necessary for the local
promoter to bring about his aim is a
Flynn victory over Al Kaufman ana
tho word Of the Nevada governor that
Reno will permit another champion
ship match. Ard James has started
work in these directions. Yesterday he
closed with Manager Curley, who is
still in salt Lake, for a clash between
Flynn ard Al Kaufman, taking the
match from Harry Foley, u rival pro-
lmoter.
simultaneously with the signing Of
this pair OF hopes James has delogat
ed enc CT his lieutenants to pay Reno
visit to learn how the businessmen

Of the shrewdest promoters in the
game as well as one of the gamest, is
not giving Johnson's $4,000 demand
any thought. He declares that II Flynn
can beat Kaufman decisively and if
the Nevada authorities give their O. X
to the battle. he will give Jack his
Iprice
AS soon as he can get word from his
! lieutenant that the match can be de-
cidcd in Reno he will go to Chicago to
sign Johnson. OF course, the signing
of articles and the staging of the
match viii all hinge on a Flynn VIC
tory over Kaufman. lie viii make
! those arrangements with the colored
champion. When asked If he would
put Kaufman against Johnson should
Al defeat Flynn, he declared that the
match would work their way mean
ing that the winner Of the Flynn
Kaufman affair would get the cham
lpion.
