Rapid Decrease of Catch in the Past Few Yimttj It may surprise some persons to learn that a full grown female stur- | geon is as valuable a creature as the I fur seal. Yet this is a fact. It may also interest and surprise many to be told that more than $1,000,000 are in vested in the sturgeon catching indus try in the Delaware river alone, and that more than seven-eighths of the caviar sold in Giis country as Rus- I sian caviar is made a few miles below j this city from eggs of the sturgeon j caught in this vicinity. Yet both i these things are true also. The slaugh- | ter of the fur seals in Behring sea and j tlicir threatened early extinction by Canadian poachers produced at one time widespread excitement through out the country, and for awhile caused decidedly strained relations between the governments of the United States and England. The sturgeon is as perilously near extinction as the fur < seal. At the rate this valuable fish is j disappearing and unless something is j promptly done to prevent it in fivo 1 years there will be none to catch. To show how rapidly the sturgeon are passing away it is only necessary to refer to the report of the Pennsylvania ! fish commission. According to the | document, between the years ISBO and 1889 it was not uncommon for 1,000 sturgeon to be seen on the dock at Bayside as the result of one day's catch. In the latter named year the fish began to decrease in number rap idly. The average catch to a net thai season was 60; in 1891 about 55; in 1892 it was 43; in 1893 it had fallen to 32; in 1894 down to 26; in 1895 the average to a net rose to 32, but in 1596 it fell to 27; in 1897 the average was 22; in 1898 it fell to 13, and in 1899 it sank to 8. In IS9B the total catch of sturgeon in the Delaware bay and river was over 5,000. Last season it was 2,510. It cannot take long at this ratio to bring extermination. Does Electricity Bill Trees? New Haven (Conn.) Special to Phil adelphia Inquirer: Indignant citizens who desire to save the noble elms thai ate the pride of New Haven have threatened to bring suit against tho trolley car companies of the city for alleged damages to the trees. The as sertion is made that the trolley wires charged with electricity are in some streets held in place by connecting ; wires fastened to the trees, and that : charges of electric fluid are sent into the trees, which are thus killed. The trolley companies have sought to stave off damage suits by an offer to test the scientific correctness of these as sertions. Permission has bsen obtained from the department of public works and police supervision assured for the interesting experiment within the week of charging the big tree in front of City Hall with the full voltage ol the .trolley system. If the tree dies a score of suits will be filed by prop erty owners, who have been compelled to cut down trees, some of them 150 years old,since the trolley ran through the avenues.

My hostess led the way across the drawing room to a dark, exquisitely lovely girl. She watched us eagerly, and, without waiting for any intro duction, sprang to her l'eet, uud said: "Are you Captain Hnlliwell?" I admitted the truth of the charge. "I am Edna Doughty," she said,with a slight air of defiance. "Edna Doughty." I said, holding out m.v hand, "I am proud to meet you." The name of Edna Doughty was in everybody's mouth in connection with what the papers called "The Great 'Label' Case." Lord Epworth was found dead in his bed. It transpired that he was se cretly addicted to the practice of tak ing chloral. lie had received a bottle by post from Messrs. Perott and Men son tho well-known chemists, from whom lie usually obtained it. and had taken one dose out of it, a moderately strong one. It killed him. It was taken for granted at first • that his death was either the result of accident, or a case of suicide. But at the Inquest Messrs. Perott and Menson positively denied having sent the bottle to Lord Ep worth. It was certainly wrapped up in their label, and packed in one of their boxes. But they had not sent ft. Thclabel was, of course, examined. It bore the postmark, "Hanipstead, 3.15 p. m. 7, 8, i>7." It was obviously improbable that Messrs. Perott and Menson, whose place of business is in Bond street, would post medicine in Ilampstead. The chloral was analyzed and pro nounced a strong poison. Lord Epworth had been poisoned, and the crime had been committed by somebody who was perfectly ac quainted with his habits. So far as known this narrowed the circle to about ten persons—bis house hold servants and a few relatives. The question arose, who would bene fit by his death. He was a married man, but separated from his wife. She had been an actress in her youth, and had a handsome allowance from her husband, whom she had not seen for fifteen years. Lord Epworth's estate was immense. The family property, which was of great value, would pass to his nephew, Dalton Humphrey, a man who was well known and very popular iu soci ety. It was ou him that public attention was fixed. Ilis uncle made him a very small allowance, and he was known to lie in financial difficulties. The death of his uncle would make him a rich man. Further inquiries produced two start ling revelations—the handwriting on the label closely resembled Mr. Humphrey's, but it appeared to be dis guised; also, Mr. Humphrey had cer tainly purchased a bottle of chloral three days before his uncle's death, and it had been sent to him from Messrs. Perott and Menson's estab lishment by post. Doubtless he had removed the wrap pings carefully, substituted the poison, replaced the wrappings and sent it to bis uncle, knowing that It would be consumed without suspicion. Iu addition to this, Mr. Humphrey was known to have played golf at Ilampstead on August 8, at about 3 o'clock in tho afternoon—the time the package was posted. He was, of course, arrested. He seemed to be somewhat dazed when the warrant was read to him, but not exactly surprised and said: "Well, it served the brute right!" In the teeth of such evidence, and what sounded like an admission of guilt, it was difficult for his friends to believe him innocent. But one person believed In him. In spite of all, although he seeuied not to believe in himself—the girl he was engaged to, Miss Edna Doughty. She was a wealthy girl, and consid ered one of the "catches" of the,,sea son. In spite of all protests and ar guments. she stood by her lover, and tested her complete confidence to him. Public opinion was unanimous—Dal ton Humphrey was guilty of a most treacherous and cowardly murder, and altogether unworthy of such a trump of a girl as Miss Donghty. As for her, for the moment she was the pop ular idol. I must explain, too, that ber reason for desiring to know ino was that at a country house where I was visiting a few months previously, I had been instrumental in clearing up a family scandal. Miss Doughty wanted my help. Would I join hands with her in clear ing Dalton Humphrey? She could tell me nothing about the case beyond what the papers reported, as the ac cused was obstinately silent. All she could say, with tears iu lier eyes, was that she believed him innocent. At the ixittom of my heart I firmly believed in the mail's guilt. But it was Impossible to refuse the request of such a noble-minded girl. Our first and greatest difficulty was the prisoner himself. He would an swer no questions and render no as sistance. All he would say was: "I don't care. Let them do what they like." I felt it was not quite fair to Infer the worst from tllls obstinacy. It might not arise from a consciousness of guilt. It is conceivable that a man's mind might be somewhat unhinged at the gravity of the charge. I examined the evidence carefully. The handwriting on the label certainly resembled ids, but not so exactly us to be conclusive. The question was, who would or could imitate It? Was it done out of malice? Above all, was it possible that there was n woman In the case? Some one, perhaps, who was jealous of Miss Doughty. I knew many of his friends, and made careful Inquiries, but could find no reason to suspect any one of con spiring against him. One curious fact was < licitcd. Hum phrey had left a west end club at 3.10 o'clock on August S. He drove to Hampstead in a cab, and arrived at the links late. If that was the case, how could he have posted the pack age at 3.13? It was an odd discrepancy, but not by any means sufficient to clear him. A cunning man might have arranged things so. I obtained L pliotor r nph of the label, and distributed copies among his friends. But accident suggested a curious possibility. A friend of mine was in terested in a "benefit" which was be ing organized for an actor. He called to let me know how it was progress lug. "I have had such a bit of luck," he said. "I wrote to Lady Epworth. When she was ou the stage she was a 4 pal' of old Burrows, and I thought perhaps she might fork out a fiver. However, to my surprise, the old screw has sent five and twenty pounds. Here's her letter." While reading her letter I noticed that there was, at any rate, some re semblance between ber writing and that on the label. It seemed to me that the writing on the label Vas about midway between that of Lady Epworth and Dnlton Humphrey. If he had tried to imitate her handwrit ing or she had tried to imitate his, one could imagine that this would be the result. I submitted the three specimens to an expert. Ills report was unfavorable. In bis opinion the address had not been written by Lardy Epworth. He was satisfied that the label was ad dressed by tho person—whoever he was—who had written the third speci men. That person was, of course, the accused. Messrs. Perott and Mcnson told me that they knew Lady Epworth by sight, but hail never seen her in the shop, and I began to lose what little confidence I had ever had in the case. But not so with Miss Doughty. She didn't believe "experts," nor, in fact, anybody who had anything to say against Mr. Humphrey, and suggested we should try another Interview witli him. At first lie was as obstinately silent ns ever, but I mentioned the discrep ancy in the time of posting. Instantly his attention was aroused. "Do you mean to say," lie said bit terly, "that you don't take it for granted that I nm guilty?" "I don't take anything for granted," I replied sharply. "And If you would only pull yourself together like a man we might do some good." What can 1 do?" lie said, coloring. "Answer a few questions. Whom do you suspect?" "Nobody. It is that which bewil ders me." "What about your mint? Would she benefit by Lord Epworth's death?" "Indirectly she would," ho said, thoughtfully. "When my uncle mar ried lie was wildly in love, and made extravagant settlements." "But slio lias on annual allowance?" I said. "Ves; but she doesn't always get it," he said, witli 5 sinilo, "because Ep worth's affairs were In such a pickle. But now that he is dead nobody could prevent tier stepping Into a large prop erty." "What kind of a woman is she-?" "A thoroughly bad lot," was the prompt answer. "Does she know your handwriting"" I asked. "Certainly. She has had letters from' me." This gave lis something to work on. Further conversation brought to light the fact that there lived with Lady Epworth a Miss Denton, who seemed to lie half lady's maid, half companion. Humphrey said he believed she was a relation—probably a sister. It was possible that, although Lady Epworth herself had never entered Perott and Men son's shop, her creature might have done so. With some difficulty I procured a photograph of this Miss Denton, and, placing it among a number of others, took It to Messrs. Perott and Men son. They picked it out immediately. The lady was a regular customer. She purchased chloral. They know her name, and she gave the address of a small shop in Lady Epworth's neigh borhood. Moreover, they hnd transmitted through the post a bottle of chloral to the woman a few days before Lord Epworth's death. She or Lady Epworth had evidently imitated Humphrey's handwriting, watched his movements and posted the poison at a time when suspicion • would inevitably fall on bim. Having proceeded so far with the case, I now thought it right to hand it over to his solicitors to complete It, as I had no wish to pose as a detect ive. Mr. Bennett, instead of consulting the police and taking steps to have the women arrested, or at any rate, watched, simply wrote to Lady Ep worth requesting her to call at his office. Evidently she and her "lady's maid" took alarm, for tire effect was start lingly tragic. Next morning London was electri fied to learn that Lady Epworth had died by poisoning by her own hand, and her accomplice had disappeared. The expert on handwriting had blun dered, as experts sometimes do, but we had no difficulty in obtaining Hum phrey's release at the next magisterial Inquiry. There wits, however, still one point which had not been cleared up, und in Miss Doughty's presence I put two questions to him. Why had he purchased tt bottle of chloral? and above all why had he tacitly admitted his guilt? Ills answer was a painful one. "I have been secretly addicted to the habit of taking chloral for the last three years," he said. "I suppose the tendency Is hereditary. Nobody knew of it, and I was constantly try ing to break myself. When I was arrested I was more or less under Its Influence, and scarcely knew what I was saying. But when 1 found myself in Jail on a charge of murder I honest ly believed myself guilty. I believed I had been out of my mind." I won't dwell on the scene that fol lowed. Humphrey declared that this experience hud cured him of the vice, and pledged his word of honor never to give way again, und he has kept his promise. I fear that the account. I have given of the affair has necessarily shown him In a bad light. But he is really "one of the best," and I know no hai>- pler people than the present Lord and ,Lady Epworth."—Waverley Mag azine. R*inrkiil>le Swarms of Insects. Prom various parts of the country there were reports last summer of grasshoppers and locusts, swarms of Insects that played havoc with the farmer. A swarm entered Colorado Springs Borne few years ngo and swept away almost all the verdure. The insects covered the ground in places, and were swept out of the stores with brooms. That grasshop pers can stop a train seems incredi ble, yet a train on one of the northern roads in Colorado ran into a swarm one day which literally stopped it. The insects were piled up nearly a foot deep on the rails, and ns the wheels crusued over them the train slid uiong and could not be started. The insects tilled the cab, crawled over the cars and into them when ever tuey could lind entrance and pre sented a sight that alarmed some of the passengers, as when they flew they tilled the air like hall and formed a cloud which turned the sky to a red hue. iicta UP nix Lee.

SOUTH DAKOTA'S WIND CAVE. It !• So Extengive That Some People Say Tliut the State Is Hollow. The good people of South Dakota regard Wind Cave as the tenth wonder of the world. From surface indica tions it would seem that a large part of the state is hollow, and the extent of Wind Cave is unknown. It was discovered in 1877 by a notorious char acter known as "Lame Johnny," who distinguished himself on several oc casions by holding up the Deadwood stage and ambushing caravans of un warv travelers. His lack oi prudence in one of these adventures resulted in a "necktie party" which ended John ny's career, so that he was not able to profit by his discovery. J. B. Mc- Donald rediscovered the phenomenon in 138-i by finding a large gap in the plain through which the wind was pouring out with great force, like the draught of a chimney. There are similar vent holes at frequent inter vals over the prairie, and the people of this neighborhood claim that sever al have been opened within the last few years. The cave is divided Into chambers. It ts asserted that more than li(HK) dif ferent rooms have already been dis covered, varying in size from 112 feet in diameter to over three acres, and this is believed to he only a small portion of the cavern. The edve ceiling is not so high as that of Mammoth Cave, and the geologic formations are not as wonderful as those of Luray, but it has many attractions, and one in par ticular—the dryness of the atmosphere —which is said to afford instant and complete relief to asthmatic people. The temperature of the cave is about 45 degrees the year round, being un affected by the variations of the ther mometer outside, but the variations of the barometer are sharply perceptible. When the mercury rises on the outside a current of air flows into the cave and follows a certain direction. When the glass falls this current changes and the air flows in another direction. This phenomenon has not been studied by competent meteorologists, but is so apparent that it attracted the attention of the early explorers of the canyon. The effect of the air of the cave upon astlnnutle people is equally peculiar. A sufferer from that disease Unds im mediate relief upon entering the cave, and there will be no return of the trouble for several days after. This has suggested the possibility of a per manent cure for such as can have the privilege of visiting the cave frequent ly, and a hotel is planned for their ac commodation.—Chicago Record. Says lie Sava Top Spin 71 Minulea. "I see that a couple of Northern scientists are wrangling over the in vention of a top that spins for an hour without stopping," said a New Orleans engineer, talking about mechanical curios. "No detailed description of the device has even been printed, but I can nssure both claimants that it is far from a novelty. "Over ten years ago, to the best of my recollection, a German watchmak er, who was then living here, made a top which I myself have several times seen spin for more than an hour. Ills name was William Freund, and I be lieve he is now at Dallas, Tex. He was a sort of all-round mechanical genius nud used to occupy liis leisure by mak ing quaint automatic toys, which he generally gave away. The long-dis tance top consisted of a metal sphere, about the size of a football, surmount ed by two thin, wide disks, which, to the best of my recollection, were made of tin, with a strip of lead around the edge. Freund called the thing the "Saturn top," because these disks made it look something like the familiar pic tures of that planet. At the bottom of the sphere was a short pin with a sharp point, on which the apparatus revolved, and on top was a peg for winding the string which gave it its impetus. No other mechanism was visible. Freund spun the toy in a small saucer the two or three times I saw it in motion. Ho held it erect by a handle which rested in a cavity at the end of the peg, gave the string a quick Jerk and away it went. It whirled around so smoothly and with such a total absence of anything like a wobble that it was hard to discern that it was really moving. It appeared to be standing perfectly still. The longest time that I saw it spin was one hour and 11 minutes, but 011 other occasions It boat tlint record slightly." —New Orleans Times-Democrat. The Finn That Failed. There is a mother in a New England town who lias much trouble with her small lio.vs. They are very lively edi tions of the small boy, given to running away, going in swimming, and doing many other things of which a good mother cannot approve. So the other day, to keep the most obstreperous of the small boys at home, she dressed him entirely in his sister's clothes, Then with a mind at rest, thinking he would not end*e the shame of being seen on the street in girl's clothes, she went about her work with a quiet mind. But her confidence in that small boy's feelings was not well placed. He ventured out on the street and there meeting some genuine little girls, was evidently reproached by them for the false position in which he was placed. That la at least the con clusion the mo .her came to later, and that her small boy resented sarcastic remarks, for an older brother came running in in great excitement, cry ing: "Oh, mother; Oeorgie is fighting with some otlior little girls,"—New York Times.

The order of 208 guns and two de stroyers for the Turkish navy has been placed with Messrs. Krupp, of Essen, notwithstanding that the tender of Messrs. Armstrong, Whitworth & Co., of Great Britain, was over $400,000 less than that of the German firm. Since the outbreak of the war in South Africa £104.059 has been receiv ed by the Lloyds' Patriotic Fund in aid of soldiers disabled by wounds who have left the service. A sum of £lO,- 200 was handed over to be distributed among Colonials, and £2,570 has been given to disabled men at home. The German China expedition corps is clothed in yellow-brown khaki. The troops carry highly sharpened sword bayonets, and the new rifles, 1898 model, known as "Boer guns." The officers are armed with long swords. Every soldier must carry a mosquito net and a blanket. Until the time of Charles XII. of Sweden the artillery was not consider ed a part of the army; the men serving in it were r.ot soldiers, but regarded as mechanics: the officers had no army rank. Charles XII. gave artillery offi cers a rank, and regularly organized the artillery into companies. The battle of Pavia demonstrated the superiority of the gitn in the hands of the Spanish infantry. The musket car ried a 2-ounce ball, and sometimes brought down at one fire two or three mailed knights. The French sent a flag of truce to remonstrate against the use of such barbarous weapons. There is a strong movement in Greece in favor of the Swiss military system in place of the German.
