MAYORS OPINION
ON DAMAGE DONE
Saws Underhill Should Be
Fined at Least $4,000 as
Result of Dynamiting Big
Water Main.

The bond for the appearance of
Alfred c. Underhill, charged with ma
liciously and mischievously dynamit-
ing the water main of the Richmond
noon, was fixed at $500 in police court
this morning. The bond was placed
at $4,000 when attorneys for the de-
tense asked that the bond be made
lower. They declared the amount of
$1,000 to be unjust and unconstitu-
tional. UnderhilPs case will come up
for trial or preliminary hearing We'd
nesday, April 9.
An attorney for the defendant in
timated prejudice, malice and unfair
ness on the part of the mayor. He
accused the mayor of dealing with
Underhill in a manner with no other
man in the city would be dealt with.
Because it is Underhill," said he,

lot of talk, you are placing his bond at
an absurd, unreasonable and unfair
amount"
What Mayor Says.
Mayor Zimmerman replied to the
accusations made by the attorney and
stated that he believed that $4,000 was
a fair amount for the bond of man

done by Underhilll as soon as it did.
THE law" said the mayor, says
that the fine may be placed at twice

Harris made the same remark to
Mayor Zimmerman.
City officials believe that the bond
should have been kept at $4,000 by
Mayor Zimmerman. One of them said.
1T is a shame that the court should
release Underhill on a bond of $500.
If he would leave the city, [ should
think that this was the right course
to pursue but because the people and
the city wants to be rid Of him, he will
probably stay here and continue to be
a nuisance

GRIND MUMMIES INTO PAINT.
A Beautiful Brown Color Is oh
tanned from that Source.
Hom the London Answers.

From the London Answers.
In order to furnish the innumerable del
icate tints of paint required by painters,
manufacturers have nowadays to ransack
the world. Even mummies have lately
been called into use.
Mummies are usually preserved In :he
finest bitumen, and this ancient bitumen
has. in the course of centuries, turned
the mummies a leathery-brown tint. II
has been found that when the bitumen
and the shreds of mummy are ground
down by machinery. a beautiful brown
pigment is the result-eXsCtly the tint
required for painting certain shades of
brown hair.
Sepia Is one OF the commonest OF art
lists paints. II is a deep brown in color,
and comes from a source equally strange.
II is prepared from the black, inky fluid
discharged by the cuttletish to blind and
haffie its enemies.
Prussidn blue is prepared from horses
hoOfs and is made by fusing the hoofs
with potassium carbonate.
Raw sienna is soil from near Sienna.
Italy Burnt sienna, another common
tint. is simply the same earth burnt.
The majority Of pigments for making
cOors-that is. the dry powder-are OBJ
tanned from minerals, but many pigments
come from the animal kingdom. Cochi-
neal. for example. comes from the dricl
bodies OF insects 4 kind Of pitch is also
used for certain pigments.

Tendencies of Insurance Com
panies to Give Her Same
Rate as Brother.

Is II the intuition OF women which
warns them OF approaching death, and
makes them undesirable risks for iIsur-
ance companies? Are unmarried wonen
better risks than married women? All
things considered, should women be ac-
cepted as readily as men and on equal
terms? These are some OF the questions
discussed at the medical section meeting
Of the American Life Insurance Associa-
ton In st. Paul recently. The insura hill
ity of women is at present one of the
most interesting and uncertain phases Of
the most fascinating business in the
world as J. F. Roche. vice president of
the Manhattan Life Insurance COMPANY
called it recently.
II am convinced that this belief in wom-
ems intuition is based solely on the fact
that the medical examinations of women
are not as thorough as those of men," he
safd, and that women are more apt to
have diseases OF which they alone are
aware. OF course. when these women
are insured 1t is a case of decidedly ad-
verse selection. But women are divided
into four classes with US. and one Of these
classes compares favorabIy with men. In
fact, statistics show that they are even
more favorable than men.
Married Women Bad Risks.
Ihls class IS made up OF unmarried,
self-supporting women. They are the best
risks, and next TO them come widows and
Divorces, who, in this instance only, are
classed together. The worst risks are the
married women, although those whose
premiums are made payable TO their es.
tates are not as unsafe as those who
make them payable to their husbands.
Formerly insurance companies discrimi-
mated against women by charging an ex-

MINERS TURN TO GARDENING.
Vegetable Raising n Cure for Wan
derIust, Company Finds.


Coal miners and their families are Of a
restless disposition, according TO the EN-
ployers, but a Southern mining company
| thinks it has found a r----dy in garden
sass"
The company had found that as soon
as the employees accumulated money
enough for railroad fares they were apt
10 move away As these miners worked
short hours, rarely putting in a full
month, and, as they were surrounded
by vacant land, you might suppose thei
would have taken to raising vegetables
as a matter OF economy. But few Of
them did. An enteTprising official of the
company determined to see what he could
do to improve the situation and stimu-
late an interest in vegetable raising, Of
fering a cash prize to the men for the
best vegetable gardens. and other prizes
to the women having the most attractive
flower gardens.
The first year the scheme was viewed
with dark suspicion. But after the whole
camp had gazed with watering mouths
at the succulent lettuce. peas. beans,
corn, tomatoes, and other good things
raised by the more venturesome, and had
seen the prizes in real money distributed,
there was no more hesitation. This year
every head Of family in the camp, with
two exceptions, has a fine garden, suffi-
cient to supply the table with all the
fresh vegetables that could be useo
throughout the season, and a gorgeous
display or flowers. one hundred and ten
dollars in prizes were distributed among
the ten best gardeners.

HIGH COST OF LIVING
REACHES CANARY CAGES
From the New YORK Sun.

| From the New YORK Sun.
1t may never have occurred to the
average reader that the Balkan war
could have anything to do with the
Price of bird seed. But it did have a
" hole lot to do with it. for the simple
reason that the greatest source of the
worlds supply of canary seed is in Tur-
key. in the province of Rhodosto. which
was ravaged by the warning armies,
with the result that planting was pre-
vented. crops were destroyed, and ship
ments OF stocks on hand delayed
With various intervening fluctuations
Turkish canary seed went up in this
market from SIR to 5l4 cents a pound, and
the supply here is still small
Next to Turkey the greatest source
of canary seed is the Argentine Repub-
lie. Canary seed is also imported in
smaller quantities from France and from
Morocco. OF other bird foods rape seed
and hemp seed come from Germany and
millet from Turkey and from Persia.
Persian millet is mostly distributed from
London.
There is imported of canary seed about
three times as much as of any other
kinds OF food for birds. Different coun-
tries have different shipping packages.
Thus Argentina canary seed comes in
bags, each containing l35 pounds; Tur-
kish comes in bags of 24O pounds.
1t takes but a trif1ing amount Of seed
to fill the cup in a canary birds cage,
but a canary would probably consume
or waste in the course of a year 10
pounds of seed. so that the amount re-
quired for all the birds in the country
is enormous.
By one steamer arriving from Buenos
Ayres, a few weeks ago, there were i'm
ported l.TSO bags, Of a little more than 10
tons of canary seed. A New York I'M
porter told OF one steamer from the same
port some years ago that bI ought 1900
bags, or upward of 500 tons; this vessels
cargo was composed of canary seed and
dry hides.
There was imported into this country
in 1872 canary seed to the amount ap-
proximately of 100000 pounds, or about
l,500 tons, worth, at an average normal
price of 3 IL cents a pound. SI75,eO0 The
value of all the bird seed imported in a
year is from $4,000 to $4,000. IL would
probably be putting 1t very moderately. to
say that the bird lovers of the country
pay out for bird seed as they buy it. In
retail from. more than $l,OO0OO0 annually.
