The Norwegian bark Victoria arrived
at quarantine yesterday from Algoa
Bay, Africa. Several of her crew were
reported to be suffering with beri-beri,
a disease peculiar to seamen. The sick
are in charge of the quarantine physi
cians. The Victoria is under charter
to load naval stores for the Paterson-
Downing Company, but it is not known
whether she will icud here or at a Flor
ida port. She is at Tybee for orders.
Suit* for Pilotage.
Because the master of the schooner
Eliza J. Pendleton navigated his ves
sel to sea without a pilot while out
ward bound from Philadelphia on a
foreign voyage on Sept. 15. 1900. the
Society for Relief of Distressed Pilots
has begun a suit in the United States
District Court at Philadelphia, against
F. S. Pendleton. George Pendleton and
other owners of the vessel to recover
the amount of pilotage which should
have then been paid. The libellants
sue to recover $75, the amount which
is claimed to be the rate for a vessel
of the Pendleton's type.

EARLY MOHMXG AIR.
Something About It* Chemical Com
position—Sweet anil Fresh.
From the Lancet.
Chemists have long ago told us not
only what is the exact composition of
the air. but also that this composition
is practically constant, whether the air
be that near the mountain top or the
sea, or from the country, or of the
town. So far. then, chemistry would
not appear to offer any explanation of
the benefit gained from "a change of
air.” Similarly, everyone knows the
sweetness and freshness of the early
morning air, attractive properties
which disappear as the day advances;
but so far as analysis goes the com
position of the early morning air 1r
not different from that of air at any
other time.
It is well to remember, however, that
during the passing of night to day and
of day to night several physical
changes take place. There is a fall in
temperature at sunset and a rise again
at dawn, and consequently moisture Is
alternately being thrown out and taken
up again, and it is well known that
change of state Is accompanied by elec
trical phenomena and certain chemical
manifestations also. The formation of
dew has probably, therefore, far more
of dew effects than merely the moist
ening of objects with water. Dew Is
vitalizing, not entirely because it is
water, but because it possesses an in
vigorating action due partly, at any
rate, to the fact that it is saturated
with oxygen, and it has been stated
that during its formation peroxide of
hydrogen and some ozone are devel
oped. It is not improbable that the
peculiarly attractive and refreshing
quality w’hlch marks the early morn
ing air has its origin in this way. Cer
tain it is that the bracing property of
the early morning air wears off as the
day advances, and it is easy to con
ceive that this loss of freshness is due
to the oxygen, ozone or peroxide of
hydrogen (whichever it may be) being
used up. The difficulty of inducing
grass to flourish under a tree in full
leaf Is well known, and is generally
explained by saying that the tree ab
sorb the nourishing constituents of
the soil or that It keeps the sunlight
away from the grass and protects it
from rain. It Is doubtful whether any
of these explanations are true, the real
teason most probably being that the
vitalizing dew cannot form upon, the
grass under a tree, whereas as a rule
both rain and light can reach It. Dew
Is probably essential to the well-being
of both plant and animal to a greater
extent than is known, arid the beau
tiful expression in the prayer book.
"Pour upon them the continual dew
of thy blessing,” may be remembered
in this connection.
A Ip* Hoiidp Floated to Him.
Columbia, Mo., Telegram to the New
York Sun.
The Missouri river flood has given P.
C. Nucltles, of Rocheport, anew house,
completely furnished. The high water
drove Mr. Nucklqs away from his
farm, and when he returned to it he
found on his land a comparatively new
house, which was in good condition,
despite its watery Journey. There is
nothing about it to indicate who the
owner Is.

NAVAL STORES.
Friday, July 3.
TERPENTINE —The week In naval
stores trading came to a close to-day
with a spurt of strength that carried
the price nt the closing call at the
Board of Trade to 47%c., at which the
' tone was firm and the offerings in re
] quest. Consumers appeared to want
| the article, and were willing to take it
|at the official price. The buying con
! tinued of a general nature, being for
' both home and foreign account,
j Throughout the week the tendency of
the market has been gradually up
ward. and the fact it has been so is
! a source of satisfaction to the trade
1 for the reason that the gains were
: better held and none looked for any
reaction with conditions as they have
j been for some time past. From some
sections reports are that rains have
! fallen so much that work has been in
terfered with. To-day's receipts were
841 casks, and the exports 2,049 casks.
ROSINS—The rosin market closed
firm, and while there was throughout
the day a fair demand for the offerings
the closing did not find ail tables
cleared. Sales of 1,668 barrels, were
reported at the opening at the Board
of Trade, and 527 barrels at the clos
ing. To-day's receipts were 2,074 bar
rels, and the exports 1,570 barrels.

DRY GOODS.
New York, July 3—The dry goods
market is in a condition which is no
more than natural for a day preceding
a holiday. Buyers have practically sus
pended operations and first hands
have not been endeavoring to force
business. There is little indication of
an improvement in the raw material
situation and the curtailment proposi
tion is likely to increase materially
the scarcity of general lines.
STOCKS AND BONDS.
New York, July 3.—Many members
of the Stock Exchange who had peti
tioned the board of governors to make
to-day a holiday ignored the session
to-day and went out of town. The
handful of members who attended the
session traded among themselves al
most exclusively and there was
scarcely an echo of the outside world
In the board room.
Asa consequence to-day's dealings
fell below 200,000 shares to anew low
level of activity for the year. The
fact that the grain and provision mar
kets were closed for a holiday Increas
ed the apathy In the stock market, ow
ing to the large importance attached
at this time to the progress of the
crops. Whatever speculative interest
was diverted from that field seemed
to go into the cotton market, which
divides with it at present the chief
speculative interest.
There was feverish activity in the
cotton market over the publication of
the government's estimate of the con
dition of the crop as of June 25. But
the cornered condition, of the staple
leaves little room for just inferences of
crop conditions from the price move
ment. The improvement in the condi
tion of the crop since the last report
was received with satisfaction in the
stock market. Neither this influence
nor any otner caused anything but a
trivial movement of prices. The bank
statement was without appreciable in
fluence. although the showing was a
weak one.
Thor" were very few features In the
market. The drop to 80 of Hocking
Valley was explained by the official
announcement of the payment of 105
for the pooled common stock consti
tuting a majority of the issue, with no
provtsion made for the minority stock
holders. These minority holders at one
time cherished the hope of a guaran
tee of 4)4 or 5 per cent, dividends. The
announcement of an advanced rate of
express charges was followed by a fall
of 3 points in United States express.
Demand for remittances by to-mor
row's steamer advanced the rate of
sterling exchange and the figures of
the week's exports of grain showed a
decrease of several hundred thousand
bushels. The dull sagging movement
of the early part of the day gave

Branch Office, Albany, N. Y.
place to a hardening tendency at the
last, which brought the level of prices
for the principal active stocks to a
fraction above last night and the clos
ing was firm.
The bond market was dull and irreg
ular. Total sales par value $1,900,000.

Why I*. P. P.,Ltppniun'a Great Reme
dy, is the Best Medicine in the
United States.
P. P. P. is made up of green Prickly
Ash bark, gathered when the sap is
down, green poke root, dug out of the
ground, and green stlllingig root,
gathered at the seasonable time. All
brought to our store, and laid out,
green as gathered, on large boards, to
dry, wnere they are carefully preserved
In the strongest double-proof spirits to
preserve their virtue intact.
Every article in P. P. P„ Lippman'a
Great Remedy, is printed plainly on
the bottle. Every physician knows the
great virtue of P. P. P. in the cure of
rheumatism, scrofula, blood poison
ing, catarrh in all Its stages, and be
sides P. P. P. is a fine tonic for delicate
females, curing their troubles, and in
valuable in dyspepsia.
Other remedies are made out of roots
imported from Mexico and the East
Indies; are dry and rotten in many
cases. P. P. P. is made fresh from
green roots and barks gathered by our
selves on the seacoast near Savannah.
This is why P. P. P. is the best medi

EFFECT OF WAVES ON SHIPS.
Wliat Cannes the Rolling and Pitch,
lug of Venneln.
In an article on problems in naval
architecture, Engineering of London
refers to the important question
whether hollow or straight lines confer
the greatest advantage in a ship, if
a hollow line warship pitches more
than a straight-line ship her guns can
not be fired with the toe degree of
accuracy as would otherwise be the
case. This is more important where
bow fire is being utilized to the fullest
extent In a chasing fight, when the
cruiser must make her best speed. The
question, therefore, to be determined
is as to whether these hollow lines
confer an advantage in speed to com
pensate for the alleged tendency to
ward increased pitching. The conten
tention is made that even in Channel
steamers, where length Is also restrict
ed owing to the limited dimensions of
harbors, it has not been found neces
sary to adopt hollow lines. A factor
in the pitching of the ship is the rela
tion of the length of the ship to the
length or period of the wave; and in
the design of British cruisers attention
is said to be given to the fact that the
waves in the English channel—the
probable venue of our naval actions
of the future—are much shorter than
in the Atlantic, and that consequently
a short ship will be more suitable there,
while on the Atlantic a long ship will
give a better result.
It would certainly be interesting if
the staff of a James Watt experiment
al institution could make a sufficient
ly long series* of observations to deter
mine the avefage or prevailing length
or periodicity of waves in the channels
surrounding the United Kingdom, as
well as on the great oceans, with a
view to assisting in the design of the
type of ship, both as regards length
and lines, which would give the great
est comfort in rough weather. It would
be possible, for instance, to ascertain
exactly the effect of pitching on vari
ous sections at the entry, and to de
termine the relative advantages of V
and U sections—whether they conduce
to, or reduce, pitching motion. Hav
ing determined this, it would be de
sirable, in the case of Channel steam
ers, where high speed is to as
certain by tank experiments the' effect
of such variation of section on the
speed of the ship. A kindred question
has reference to the cutting away of
the forefoot, and its effect on turning,
on speed, and on pitching.
A point which might be considred
with profit to the sea voyager is the
influence of a high biAim wind on a
ship with open deckwork. Even with
ordinary Channel steamers it is becom
ing the fashion to have one or two
promenade decks above the molded di
mensions of the ship, while in Atlan
tic liners three such decks are now
adopted, and our experience suggests
that such openwork forms extensive
“pockets” for the wind, with the result
that the amplitude of rolling ; 3 in
creased more than would be the case
if the wind could escape, -as is the case
with a ship having no such open work
above the molded structure. The tur
ret ship and the whaleback ship were
introduced to overcome a somewhat
kindred problem resulting from the ac
tion of sea water in the “wells.’’ It has
been shown that with a sidelong wind
the pressure on railway trains increases
materially with the number of wagons
used, because of the“pocketing” of the
wind between the wagons. Thus, with
trains of the same capacity, but fitted
in one case with fifty-ton wagons, and
in the other with ten-ton wagons,
thereby greatly adding to the number
the wind pressure was increased 150
per cent. It would be interesting, adds
Engineering, to know to what extent
the propulsive efficiency of a ship is
decreased and amplitude of rolling In
creased by such high deck structurßfc
