TKST PROVES MILK
FROM SKAGWAY PERFKCT
The gentleman at Whitehorse who
u rote Collier's Weekly for a pro
cess for testing Skagway milk, has
made the test according to Instruc
tions and as a lesult has increased
his order for larger quantities of
the lacteal fluid from the Flower
City. In a letter to the Sunnyside
Dairy, dated March 1, he says:
"To satisfy about eight customers
of both dairies, 1 made tests of the
milk and found them both perfect.
At times people have come to me
and complained of the odor, and
this test has satisfied them that
it was not anything put in the nillk,
but perhaps due to carelessness in
allowing milk to remain in the cans
after getting It."
Steamship Curacao will arrive In
Skagway about six o'clock in the
morning. She is being delayed at
Ft. Seward unlording 132 tons of

A VERY ANCIENT TUNE.'
It I* Also Probably the Molt Popular
One In the World.
Perhaps the most Hrtuly established
popular souk In the v.-orld Is the air fa
miliar to American* us "W? Won't Go
Home Till Morning " The origin of the
tune Is obscure, but I.otils Elson be
lieves that the music was composed
as p love song In the tenth century or
earlier by one of the troubadours, the
wandering minstrels of southern
France. Chateaubriand, the French
writer, b?nrd It sung by the Arabs, and
he suggested that It inlj'bt bare been
Cfirried to the orient by the French cru
widers.
It was certainly suag by the French
soldiers during the war in which the
first Duke or Marllwrough won his
fame. It was the lullaby of the baby
son of Marie Antoinclte. It becameone
of the most populu songs of the
French revolution. Napoleon whistled
and sang it throughou t his life. Beetho
ven used it as one of the themes of bis
"Battle Symphony."
It has been for moi? than a century
one of the most popular street songs In
Europe. And there 1* probably not a
ten-year-old boy or gltl In America who
does not know the tune.
The French words, beginning "Mal
brook s'en va-t-en gue*re," were invent
ed by some forgotten French soldier
during the war of the Spanish succes
sion. They describe the supposed death
and funeral of the Duke of Marlbor
ough. which death. In the words of
Father Prout. "did not then take place,
by some mistake." sln ?e "the subject of
the pathetic elegy was at the time of Its
composition, both alive and kicking all
before blm ''
The song had nearly died out In
France when Marie Antoinette caught
It up from the peasant nurse she had
employed for her baby: thereupon It
spread rapidly, as songs do in France.
Beaumarchais introduced it into "The
Marriage of Figaro." and it was used
by the red republicans for Incendiary
puriwses ot their own.
Several sets of words have been sung
to the tune in the course of its history,
and it has itself undergone some modi
fications But Its identity Is clear
through all the changes. Probably It Is
familiar to a greater number of people
at the present time than any other tune
in the world.? Youth's Companion.
WON THE JURY.
A Couple of Shrewd Queries and the
Railroad Lost Its Case.
A Dumber of .rears ago Benjamin P.
Butler was a truest of friends In Brook
lyn. During bis visit lie noted the rule
of the street railway companies com
pelling conductors to register fares as
soon as passengers entered the cars j
and before the fares were actually col
lected. Two or three years afterward
be represented the platntifT In a damage
suit for Si'i.oOO in which a Brooklyn
street railway company was the de
fendant. The principal witness for
the company was the conductor of the
car on whicli the accident occurred,
and his testimony was so strong as to
make things look bad for Butler's cli
ent But Butler recalled the nnusual
rule he had remarked years before, and
on cross examination be said:
"Tour company requires yon to ring
up fares as soon as passengers enter
the car, doesn't it?"
"Yes."
"Suppose m pnsseuger boards your
car and tben tinds be is on the wrong
line Do you state that fact to your
superiors, and do they make allowance
ou your returns for thfit fare?"
"No I lose the nickel."
"I)o you mean to say the company
won't take your word tor & cents?"
"No. they won't"
"Yet." said the shrewd veteran, turn
ing to the jury, "the company asks you
to take this conductor's word for $15,
000 "
i Butler's client received a verdict
Brooklyn Kagle.
"Spanish Mutton."
Dog meat, we learn I'rom the Frank
furter Zeltung. Is largely sold In Ger
many, and more especially In Saxony,
but rarely under its own name. Trad
ers describe It as Spanish mutton, and
their customers are le.ss chary of ask
ing for It
Cattish In England l:i treated In the
same euphemistic way. There was a
time when this tish wf:s never seen In
the shops Then some flshmongerlng
genius invented the name of "rock
salmon," and bestow?-d it npon the
despised catfish, which now has an es
tablished plnoe in the market? London
Chronicle.
The Man F'ish.
Mathew Rucbinger, mentioned in old
English wonder books as the "man
fish." was the most remarkable mon
strosity of his time. He had neither
bands, arms, feet nor legs. Prom his
shoulders grew two finlike excres
cences. and along his back there were
several rows of scalea. He had the
lidless eyes cbaracterintlc of the fish
species and a queer puckered mouth
and no tars.
