At Cheyenne, Wyo., the band from

in honor of the visit of Adelina Patti
and Etelka Gerster. many years ago.
Strange sounds came from the band,
and Patti asked Colonel Mapleson. her
impresario, to find out what the tune
was. He found the band standing in q
circle, so close together that they
formed a solid bank, with the band
master in the center. Mapleson was
about to part them to reach the band

In starchy substances the adultera-

may be readily detected. The rule
may be almost universally applied to

AGAINST His PET THEORY
Doctor Condemned Practice of Eating
Oysters Raw, but Results Did Not
Justify Him.

They say that it was the first oy-
ster that DR.. Mccarthy had ever
eaten. That may be, and yet he ate
it at church supper. Now, it is
probable that he has attended other
church suppers. If he has, it is
scarcely possible that he has not
eaten oysters before.
But DR.. Mccarthy is a physician
who lives on Long Island, where
there is plentiful supply of shell
fish, and he has always told his pa
tients not to eat raw oysters. He
has said that raw oysters are likely
to be unwholesome. Maybe he had
followed his own advice up to the
time of the church supper. At any
rate, first oyster or not first oyster,
he found great big pearl in one
that was put before him at the sup
per, and it wasn't cooked, either, and
spoiled, because the oysters were I'M
wholesomely raw.
DR.. Mccarthy has given the pearl
to the church, to be sold for the
church's benefit. It is not stated
whether he is going to eat any more
raw oysters in the hope of finding
another pearl. But that would be
a good argument for his patients
who like oysters.
