LARGEST ORGAN IN WORLD.
Was Originally Built Between 1924 and
1850.

London. March l8.-The appointment
of an organist to st. PauFs cathedral ia
succeed Sir George Martin, who has just
died, will be a matter of great interest
in the musical world. The organ is the
largest in the world, and the position OF
organist is regarded as the highest mu-
steal post in the British empire.
The organ, with its five banks of keys,
was originally built by Father Bernard
Schmidt, a celebrated German organ
builder, between the years of 1924 and
1856 Father Schmidt received $4,000
for his work, which, at the value of mon
ey in those days, was considered very
liberal, especially as Schmidt was respon-
sible merely for the Inside work" The
case was supplied by an English work
man for $l,700, and the carving of the
case was the work of another artist for
which he received $4,000 The organ, of
course, has undergone entire reconstruc-
ton since Schmidt's time, but all of
Schmidt's pipes have been retained and
are now doing as good service as when
they were installed.

DUCKS THRIVE ON SOFT FOOD
Nutritive Organs Not Adapted to
Whole Grains-Give Them Green
Feed in Abundance.

The ducks nutritive organs are not
adapted to whole grains. The natural
diet of ducks is soft food, worms and
bugs, from the banks and marshes. For
best development, ducks should have
soft feed, always accompanied by wa
ter in pans deep enough to permit them
to submerge the beak to the eyes. Give
them lettuce, spinach, beet tops, onion
tops, weeds-green food of some kind
in abundance.
For a few ducks the vegetable par
ings may be boiled and fed with mash;
small potatoes, not to exceed a fifth
of the mash, may be used. Too many
potatoes are not good.
For stock ducks in autumn and early
winter, an excellent ration is equal
parts of cornmeal, wheat bran and
boiled vegetables, with 10 per cent orc
beef scrap fed morning and EVENING" il
at noon little cracked corn, wheat on
oats. When the birds begin to lay, ina
crease the proportion of meal and
scrap, and add low-grade flour, maxi,
ing a mash about as follows: Meal,
one part; bran, one part; low-grade
tlour. one part; vegetables, one part,
with from II to 10 per cent of beef
scrap.

Republicans Complain.

Looking around the state capital for
the leaks of which the Republican
candidates for office have spoken so
much lately, the Republicans find
there is no money in the state treas
ury to pay criminal court costs. The
legislature appropriated $450,00O for
this purpose, but like many other ap-
preparations the funds ran out on
October 8.
State officials here, and those who
are looking for state office declare
that some method will have to be de-
vised next January to increase the
revenues of the state. The last legis-
ture appropriated $4,SO0,00O in excess
of the revenue to carry on the state
work, but the governor found it neces-
sary to veto some of these appropri-
atoms, amounting to between $4,000
600 at one time, and S2,300,000 in the
second case. This leaves an overap-
preparation of only 100000 for the
state, which is not considered heavy,
yet there is a deficit in many funds
intended for current bills.
