CEMETERY .WORK A SPECIALTY JfML A LITTLE OF The world producea annually 8, 000,066 tons of sugar and the United States" consumes a third of this quantity. " ' ' '"' '' "' Chicago is said to have the largest sign in the world. It occupies the side of the Iowa elevator and covers 27,000 square feet. What is thought to be the largest apple orchard In the world is at Glenwood, la. Its area is 800 acres and it has 133,000 trees. A company in London insures umbrellas. If you can prove that your umbrella has been stolen, the company pays you what it was worth. Last year the United States im ported 2,286 horses worth (200,000 and exported over 51,000 horses, worth $6,000,000. In 1890 this country imported 30,248 horses and exported only 8,600. , ; One of the healthiest spots in the world seems to be a little hamlet in France named Aumone. There are only forty inhabitants, twenty five of whom are 85 years of age, and one is over 100. An old woman of 75 died , last summer in a little town in DutcheBB County, N. Y. Her old mother sur vived ber, and after the funeral f he said sadly, "I always knew we'd never raise that girl." So numerous have become the cases of smuggling opium in the Hawaiian Islands that the authori ties are keeping blood-hounds to gee if they cannot run down some of tbeBe Japanese and Chinese smug jlers. ' '"-- ' ' The ' latest lifeboat, which has been approved by the British ad miralty, oarries three long cylind ers into which 1,000,000 cu. ft. of air can be compressed.

He now has three good meals a day and enjoys playing pedro with the other prisoners, while his wife is at home taking in washing and sup porting eight children. Tacoma will be distinguished now. A few days ago there was arrested in that city, Schwartz, the "king of diamond swindlers," who is now charged with paying his bills in Dawson City with gold dust containing mostly brass filings. . ' Queen Victoria is l.kely to receive an unprecedented honor by the city ot New York'.'J On" May 24th', ' the queen's birthday, the national, state and city flags will be flung to' the breeze from all publio buildings in Greater New York in hnor of the queen. - Captain Bob Evans says that Commodore Philip deserved the beautiful sword presented to him by his New York friends "not because he is such a good chap generally, but beoause he prayed so loud with his 12-inoh guns off Santiago July, 3, 1898.''. 1 v --. in a number of ntates durir? b winter, the legislators enacted laws preventing the use of the American flag for advertising purposes. In New York state the law is said to prevent the use of the flag on any matter whioh is oarried as an ad vertisement. .. ; V Admirals B-,-,.8on, and Schley are to be suojeoted to an examina tion to determine the extent of their inoi'ial,i moral' and physioial ca pacity to hold their new positiqns. This seems, to be wholly unneces sary, after all the jolting they have endured during the prist yertr.; Tho largest loaves of brend baked in the world are those of France and Italy, Tho "pipe" bread "Of NO. 13, Italy is baked in loaves two or three feet long, while in France the loaves are made in the shape of very long rolls, four or five feet in length, und in many cases six feet. News that scurvy was raging among; the prospectors of Copper Rivef, Alaska, and that six men perished from, cold , on the Valdes glacier in the first days of March was brought to Seattle lately by the steamer Excelsior from the Copper River. She brought nearly one hundred passengers, forty per cent of whom were suffering from ourvy. . Local .dealers at Ellensburg, Wash., are filling orders for several hundred tons of prime timothy hay which is tc be shipped to Manila from Seattle on April 1. The con tract was awarded to Seattle parties, who, . anticipating success, bad agents secure Kititas hay. A prime article is being supplied. The price is not given out, but it is not far from $10. Officers of the navy are put on the retired list at the age of 62; army officers at 64. But th act of congress creating the rank of full admiral for Dewey specially pro vides that be shall not be retired until he ask it.

Mrs. Martha Place was electro cuted last Tuesday at 8ing Sing State Prison in New York for the murder of her step-daughter. The first shock lasted four seconds, and the voltage I16O. The voltage was then reduced to 2C0 for a second shock of 06 seconds.' Death was almost instantaneous. Her face re mained ' calm,; with- the thin lips closed tightly. It was almost 'a smile as she died. A female at tendant stood beside her during the execution. ' , A new alloy has been discovered which is said to be a wonderful sub stitute for gold. It consists ot ninety-four . parts of oopper to six parts of antimony. The copper is melted and. the antimony added, together with a little magnesium and carbonate of lime to increase the density. The product can be drawn, wrought and soldered like the precious metal, to which it bears a Btriking resemblance when polished.

Among the novelties for Raster, are dainty col ored baskets filled with the different kinds of crystallized fruits and trimmed with ribbons the shade of the basket. Another, novelty at a large reception was sandwiches made with chopped candied fruit between two very thin sliceB of bread, rolled and tied with baby ribbon. j " - ' ; ; A Manila soldier recently wrote home to his folks: "The insurgents tried to take the city by making an attack iu the front , and have the oitizens make an attack in the rear, so in order to do this it was neces- i'firy ir. 1 fpem 'o cp'- arms into the city, ; We noticed they were having a large number of funerals from a ohurch in Paoo.
