Buffalo Exposition Prospers twetlptt More Than Pay Expeniei and Show it Booming, President John G. Milburn, of the .Vi-American exposition, has issued t statement, which in part says: uThe exposition has been more ban paying its expenses since the beginning of June, and has already iccumulated a considerable surplus. That surplus is increasing daily. The ex position is having the same experience Jjat every other exposition has had, jarticularly the World's lair. The nasses outside the city where an ex position is held do not attend during May, June and July. The attendance begins in August and increases during September and October. All indications show that is to be the experience of this exposition. The reports fiom railroad men, hotel men and travelers are all to that effect.'" "Attendance during August, Sept ember and October equal to the at tendance at Chicago in October alone will pay all the obligations of the ex position, including its bonded indebt edness, and will leave a large surplus." American Hay for British Horses. A Towanda firm, the Susquehanna Valley Hay Co., is now shipping hay to South Africa to feed the troop horses of the lirit'sh army. The ship ment will consist of 1 06 cars, or about 1,275 tons of hay. The Towanda Arm was one of the few firms in the country that could furnish anywhere near such a large quantity of old hay as was demanded, last year's crop having been practically disposed of. Fifty cars of this amount are now be ing loaded at the barns of the com pany and the balance must be on the dock in New York before Aug. 15. This hay, put up in the usual sized bales familiar to every one, is shipped to the government agents in Brook lyn, where it is put through a huge compress and reduced in bulk so that three bales occupy the space of one in the hold of the ship that will take it to South Africa. Towanda Rerun: Sew Liquor License Law. A law passed by the last legislature, ind approved by Governor Stone is of interest to those concerned in the granting of liquor licenses. The new law authorizes county courts to grant licenses for a longer or shorter period than a year, but in no case less than six months or longer than iS months. This amendment of the liquor laws is made to permit the change in the innual day fixed by each court for the ranting of application for license, if (he court shall deem such a change idvisable. Betore making any change .n the date from or the period for rhich license shall run as provided in his act, the court shall give at least three months previous notice of their mentions to make such change, by rder filed with the proper clerk and wblication thereof in one or more lewspapers, as may be directed. Eights of School Boards Judge Ferris, of Luzerne county, has rendered an interesting opinion in yhich he decides that a court of equity las no jurisdiction to supervise and lirect the official discretion of a board of school directors when such discre ion has been exercised without fraud. The case was not an unusual one. It as an application for a peremptory aandamus to compel the school board d Nescopeck to admit a young man lamed Strong as a pupil to the schools if Nescopeck without charging tuition ees. Strong was raised in Nebraska, md upon the death of his father went .0 Nescopeck to live with a brother-n-law and alleged that he intended to uake Nescopeck his permanent home, fhe school board refused to admit him is a free pupil to the public schools on he ground that he was a non-resident f the district, and the court refused o interfere. for a Child vho is "not doing well'' the condi lon occurs now and then with all hildren.

Aug. 7.-Peven dend, three or four probably fatally in jured and more thnn till other persons hurt more or .less seriously is the latest revised record of Monday night's ex plosion in the block of buildings on Lo cust street above Tenth street in this city. How many more victims, it nuy, nre Mill in the ruins will not be known until all the debris hns been cleared uwny. which will require many more hours of hard work. The latest find was made at 8 o'clock last night, when the badly burned remains of a colored man WUS found in the wreckage on the side walk. Undeterred by the incessnnt rnin, the work of searching for the dead has beeu kept up continuously since the explosion occurred. Temporary electric lights have been erected at the scene of the explosion, nnd last night It Ml men, under the direction of the department of public safety, were vigorously pursuiug the search. Many of the residents of the neighborhood be lieve there uro more bodies in the wreck age. There are several persons missing. The police nnd fire ollicials are also making a search for the cause of the explosion, but have no positive proof ns to its cause. They hold to the theory that gasoline did the damage and that it Inn been stored in nue of the three grocery stores. KITCHENER'S LATEST REPORT. Uenernl lljiten Driven Ilnck Iloer l.OiiNea alven.

That pood ol,d American dish which Ued to deserve its name of clam chew der'eems to have deg-enerated these days into 0 thick, nonr-tasting tomato soup, ways the New York Sun. There is Kcareely a place in town where one can pet clam chowder now as it was made when the dish enrned the preat measure of popularity upon which its disreputable successor ia still trad ing. Instead of elania tomatoes have be come the chief ingredient, ntul the re sult is nn indigestible mess thnt re calls only in name the savory chowder of better days, and nine times out of ten the deluded (Hner who partakes of it will be afllicted with hcurtburn for hours afterward. At the seashore where clnma nre abundant one would naturally erpect to pet n chowder made after the old. orthodox fashion, but in the neiph bnrhood of New York at renst there rein-uiui only disappointment for any one who bnnks on this hope. Kven Ihcre the enterprising nnd inexpensive tomato has won the fight, nnd it is thnt product nnd not the clam that dominates the chowder. Another instance of the oppressive ness of the tomato is to be found in most restaurants that serve spaghetti. This, too, instead of bcinir an appetizing- mixture of macaroni nnd meat prnvy, topped with rarmesnn, hns come to be nothlnp more thnn a snuce of toninto poured over the spaghetti. So that it. is little won der that these two dishes clam chow der and spaghetti which formerly wr.re so highly esteemed by those who knew pood eat inp, have fallen in favor here, and it seems probable. that the time is at hand when they will be found on the lists of only the poorest grade of eating places. SECURING A LOWER BERTH. The TrleU Snmrllmri Plnjed by Traveler to iet the C oveted sleeping I'lHcr. Those who travel a pood deal nnd nre compelled to make use of nipht appreciate the value of n lower berth in a sleeper. All kinds of tricks are resorted to to secure one nud the spent must keep his eyes wide open if he would escape several kinds of trouble. One of Chicago's veteran passenger men the other day told of a practice that was common before it was decided not to show the dia grams of the cars to passengers. "A customer would come into the office," said he, "nnd ask to be shown the diagrams of the various sleepers. In looking them over he would no tice that John Smith had a lower re served until four o'clock in the after noon, as he was not certain that he would be nble to take the train that day. After petting the name well fixed in his mind the tricky cus tomer would purchase a ticket and go bnck to his office. About two o'clock he would send a messenger boy to the agency with a notice that John Smith had decided to take the berth he had conditionally reserved, whereupon it would be turned over to the messenger. When John Smith called at four o'clock the dia gram showed thnt his lower berth wns pone. It would not be proper to quote nil that John Smith would say at such times. To save ourselves from these embarrassments and to protect our customers, we recently decided to treat our diagrams as confidential." PROVISIONS FOR AN ARMY. Large Ocean Menmlili Are Obliged tu Have n Well-Stocked Larder. I'eople who cross the Atlantic in one of the preat liners are in no danger of famishing. A pentleman with a penchant for statistics has piven the public the average supply aboard the Dentsehland at the beginning of every voyage between New York and Ham burp, and, of course, nil the other big ships nre provisioned in about the sume way. In the first place, there nre 40 tons of ice to keep things eatable and drinkable, and these are the things that were on the ice on a recent trip across: Fourteen beeves, ten calves, 211 sheep, 26 lambs, 9 hogs, 1,500 chick ens, peese and game birds, 1,700 pounds of fish, 400 pounds of tongues and sweetbreads, 1,700 doz ens of eggs, 14 barrels of oysters and clams, 173 barrels of potatoes, 75 bar rels of other vegetables, 20 crates of tomatoes and celery, 00 dozen heads of lettuce, 1)0 barrels of flour, 600 pounds of oatmeal and hominy, 1,300 pounds of butter, 2,200 quarts of milk, ;i00 quarts of cream, 1,000 big molds of ice cream, 4 tons of fruit, 12,000 quarts of wine and lquor, 15,000 quarts of beer and 400 tons of drinking wa ter. Of course all of this is not used on each trip, but enough Is carried to provide a liberal mnrpin. The Level of I.nUe Erie. Lake l'.rie Is now three and one-half feet below the city base of level, the standard from which the city tukea measurement of altitude. What is known to engineers as the "city da tum" represents the high water mack of the lake in 183s. It cannot be said that the level of the lake is steadily lowering, as some believe, for the level bus risen above and pone below the city datum several times since 1838. It is interesting to note that the great est depth in Lake Erie 'directly north from Cleveland is S3 feet. The great eat depth in the lake is more than 200 feet, off Long Toint. Cleveland Leadur, .

ITnsbnnds who nre versed in the ennons of Atlantic City etiquette are careful not to pny too much atten tion to their wives at this charmingly unconventional resort by the sea, says the Cincinnati Enquirer. If there's a crowd of women sitting on the porch and your wife is nmong them, steer clear of your better half and lean over some other woman's chair nnd chat with her. The chances nre, anyhow, thnt some other mar ried man has already monopolized your wife. If a crowd is poing out t-o a cafe or pier, or what not, don't, for pity's sake, walk with your wife. If you do the other persons in the party will nudpe each other, say something uncompli mentary, shrug their shoulders, raise their eyebrows ard pity you for your lack of manners. The logic underlying this is thus ex plained by a man: "It's downright selfish in a fellow, don't you know." he said, "for him to monopolize his wfe's attention down here. She and he may see each other whenever they wish, but in the social swim the opportunity for other per sons to see her is limited. Those op portunities should not be lost. They keep the man nnd woman from stag nating keep them in touch with other persons' ideas. But, first of all reasons, it's selfish for a man to stick to hiR wife in public and I'm glad to see that persons are sensible down here, and man and wife are seldom seen together." HOW GERMS MAY BE KILLED. Information About Disinfectants o Varlona Kinds and How They Are laed. Scientific men say that the disin fectants most useful as perm killers are moist heat, such as ia used in steam disinfectors, and certain chem ical substances found by experiments to be germicides, says the Scotsman. Steam at 212 degrees Fahrenheit will kill germa of high resistance in live minutes. Dry, hot air at 2b4 de grees, on the other hand, took four houivi to effect the same end. It may be snid thnt if articles of infected clothing are exposed to steam ut 270 degrees for 15 minutes all germs are destroyed. These means, of course, apply to public disinfectors which municipalities possess for the disin fection of clothing, bedding nnd the like. The chemical disinfectants which are the most powerful nre bichloride of mercury (u poison), which in the proportion of one part to 1,000 of water kills all germs. Half nn ounce to three gallons of water with n lit tle aniline blue added (to color the Solution and prevent mistakes) and one ounce of hydrochloric acid to as sist the action of the mercury makes the best disinfectant known. Only the public cannot be trusted to use n solution which is poisonous. Carbol ic acid is not a powerful disinfect ant. I'sed in the proportion of five to 100 of water it will not kill all perms, nnd water will not tuke up more of the acid. Izal is not poison ous nnd is a pood disinfectant. It is used in the proportion of one to 200 of water. Chloride of zinc (a corro sive poison) is n disinfectant often used for disinfecting typhoid excre tions. Ilnd to Stnrt the Gam.
