Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U.S. Gov't Report mm )9 Japanese Playthings Warlike. The very pluythings in Jupau have now a wurlike character. The Japan Mail Hays that even the game of cheHS ia traimforruod, the figures being paint ed clay imaged representing Japanese and Chinese soldiers of varions ranks. A long line of mechanical toys, either of tin or wood, by turning a crank, or by simple clockwork, are made to show Chinet combatants in a large variety of unenviable positions, somotiuics pursued by Japanese troopers, who make terriflo sweeps with sword or lance in a stately seesaw, or prisoners, caught by their cues and trying to avoid the rising and falling blades. Clay figures representing Chinamen pleading for mercy are used as paper weights or desk ornaments. In another bit of mechanism a Japanese warship is gradually closing with a Chi nese vessel The latter is struck, her flag comes down with a rush, and the doomed vessel sinks beneath the wild tin waves. A fortress is shown with Japanese soldiers storming it A favor ite bit of clay modeling represents five or six Chinese cavalrymen in full flight through a wood. This is to be found in nearly every toyshop. Finally a little pinewood box contains toothpicks, on eaob of which is written some ode, in almost illegibly microscopio characters, in praise of Japan's warriors. STAGS GLINTS.

ABANDONED ON RONCADOR. Ths rilglit of Two Wreckers About ths Hones of the Old Kearsarge. A atorv of the manner in which the hulk of the historic old Koarsarge, now whitening on Koncador reel, is Deing iiimnnilnil by Caribbean sea wreckers, aud of the awkard predicament of two of thorn who were at work" upon ner, is told by Mate Sohwolow of the schooner Frank M. Noyes, whicli arrived from San Androas with cocoaiiuts. On Out. 28. he savs. while outward bound from Baltimore, the Noyes stood closu into the Kearsargo's wreck. To the surprise of all onboard a white flag was. soon fluttering from the bones of the gallant old oorvet, aud soon after a small boat was soon palling off from her. Captain Asquiui ordered the Noyes hove to, and in a few minutes she was LnnrriAd hv two bearded wreckers who said they belonged to one of the Carmen group of islands. They told Captain As- quini they had boen lancieu on ine mom ahont the Kearsargo on Aug. 1 by a small schooner, which was to call for them in a couple of weeks. As soon as they had settled themselves they began work on the Kearearge. In a short while they had secured 000 pounds of copper and about 300 pounds of copper bolts. This was all of value they could secure, so they settled down to wait for the schooner that was to take them ana their plunder away. When they were landed on me reei, they had a fairly good supply of provi sions. August passed, and with its going their food and matches wont. Septem ber came and went, and October had al most gone when the Noyes was sighted and in a measure ended their distress. For nearly two months the two men had lived on raw flBh. They had no matches with which to kindle a fire, oltliougn the Kuarsnrge offerod thorn her dry tiin Ws for the blaze. Neither had they salt with which to flavor their raw fish. One of them bad a piece of sail cloth In his month which, he said, he bad been chewing 18 days in place of tobacco. Captain Asquinl supplied tne men with all that was necessary to sustain them for some time to come. They would not loave he reef, for they did not want to abandon their copper treas ure. They appreciated Captain Asquini's kindness, aud to snow 11 iney wisucu iu return to the wreck and tuke back to him some mementos of the famous oraft. A favoring wind made Captain Asquiui dooliue their offer, and soon the Noyes filled he? sailB and sped off to ward San Andreas. Baltimore Sun. PERSONAL GOSSIP. Loie Fuller has become a Catholio.

The Blind Brothers Ware Dora With the Knack ot Boat Building. Tbo fume of tho Herrcshoffs as boat builders extends to all purts of the world. The fiimily is a remarkable ono. Thnre are seven brothers, three of whom John, Lewis and Julian are blind. While all are interesting ctjiracters tne greatest public interest in centered in John and Nathaniel as tho buildors of the American yacht Dofondor. They are of German descent, tho first of the family being Charles Fredorick Herroshoff, who came to this oountry in 1700 from Germany.

Within two years ho built several boats and sold them, and thus began the Horreshoff fame as boat builders. The oldest of tbo present generation is James Brown Herreshoff, a graduate of Brown university, who now lives in California. He is an authority in me chanical engineering, and it was he who first proposed the coil boilor which gavo the BriBtol works a start in the construc tion of steam launches. Charles Brown Herreshoff, tho second son, takes charge of the Herreshoff homestead on Prndence island, and is a man of some political proaaiuouce in Rhode Island. John Brown Herreshoff, who is tho oldest of the three blind brothors, is tho business head of the works at Bristol, and with his brother Nat shares the dis tinction of having produced many of the fastest boats afloat. He began whit tling out boats as soon as he could use a liu.kknife. nnd when 14 built a good sized yacht for sailing on Narragausett bay.
