JERSEY MOSQUITOES ).
CHASE A MILLIONAIRE

TARRYTOwN, N. j., Sept. S.-The
Jersey mosquito always at its best in
the early autumn, is proving too much
for boatmen and yachtsmen in New York
harbor and along the lower Hudson.
Many yacht owners have found the
plague of insects so severe that they
have deserted their customary anchor
ages in the harbor and fled up the
river beyond the mosquito belt.
]. Pierpont Morgan was one of the
sufferers this week. He was spending
last night on his yacht Corsair at his
anchorage off 81st street, when the Jer-
sey invaders became unbearable in their
attacks. Mr.. Morgan ordered the captain
to weigh anchor and steam up the Hud-
son to Ardsley.

WORK OF THE ANCIENT HUNS
stone-Walled Ring That Is Being Ex- eavated at Otsenhausen In tho
 Black Forest.

A Hun ring, reminding one of the Roman castra found in various parts of Great Britain, is being examined afresh at Otsenhausen in the Black Forest district. It dates from pre- Roman times, indeed is believed to be one of the earliest works of the kind.
 It lies in the hills 612 meters above the sea, and the wall inclosing 1t is over 1900 meters long. The wall is so built as to be completely hidden by trees, and as it is 30 me- ters broad at the top and ten feet high, the inclosure is practically hid den from view. The stones compos- ing the wall are of small size and loosely arranged, SO that the diffi- culty of surmounting it is increased and the chance of a night surprise diminished.
 At present there are several open ings in the wall, but it is believed that originally there was only one. The site of the latter has been ex- cavated and the remains of Roman vessels unearthed. The inclosure was supplied with water from well at one end and must have afforded refuge for . large number of men and cattle.

SHOOTING RAPIDS IN JAPAN
Exciting Sport for Tourists Made Safe by Marvellous Skill of Ma
 tive Boatmen.

The rapids on the Hodzu river near Kyoto must fill even the most blase of tourists with excitement. A train from Kyoto climbs slowly and painfully upward until finally it de- posits its passengers at quaint little siding.
 From here, says the Wide World. one goes to the river bank and em- barks in g rude, flat-bottomed boat, which is pushed out by four men into the middle of broad river, reed-edged and sleepy.
 For a few minutes one glides dreamily along; then, rounding a curve, one suddenly hears the roar of water and the boat tears down rapid, just missing the banks on each side. The high banks race past, death appears imminent, and thsn. with one mad swirl, it is all over and the boat is on the quiet unrufied stream once more.
 This happens again and again for nearly an hour. At first ones whole mind is filled with the conviction that an accident must happen, but gradually comes a delicious feeling of safety as one notes the marvellous skill these men show in piloting the boat through the seething rapids and one is able to appreciate the beauty of the scene.

HEARTY ANGEVINS.

The Angeyins are substantial eat CTS and hard drinkers. The wine of the country is stronger than further south, and, as they argue, 'bien traitre." They are also fond of ''ap- eritifs" at odd hours, and like their liquors with their coffee. The Count de Millefeurs recently found fault with one of his friends for only hav- ing two small glasses of brandy after each meal-"Every one here drinks four"-and then talked of one of his neighbors who said that a bottle of wine felt inside him very much like a mouse in cathedral. They have, however, been perhaps unjustly ma lgned in the saying "Angevin, sac a vin," but they certainly do drink more than most Frenchmen, who, particularly in the south, are re- markedly abstemious.-S Saturday Re- view.
