SHEPARD TO ECROPE. The departure of E. Shepard of this city for a year or mors in Europe for advanced study means no small loss to the music circles of Oshkosh. It is to be hoped that he will consider this city and vicinity a sufficiently worthy and profitable field for his efforts upon his return. It la not every day that cities of this else can claim musicians having the genius and the training he possesses.

His study in Europe will be a pleasant task since it will bring the pleasure of surroundings in a foreign land and will afford the pur-stilt of knowledge in thAery centers of all that ia great in the realm of music.

I had read about Peruna curing women, and I thought perhaps it would help me. I boitght a bottle and before It was finished I felt belter.

Nearly ,000, or, to be exact, 7,91 persons In the five boroughs of this greater city were reported to the police and health authorities during the past year to have met with accidental deaths or to be unaccountably missing.

This is the astonishing revelation disclosed in the mortuary report filed with the department of health. It suggests the startling question whether death and danger are more native to peace than to war. Vastly exceeding, as this does, the number of actual fatalities recorded of the Spanish-American war, and remembering that, while war an intermittent evil, this alarming death roll is growing rather than diminishing from year to year, the startling answer is that, peace far mors dangerous than war' in the matter of earning a daily livelihood. If the wayfarer have imagination and Insight and a degree of human sympathy such an excursion may be something like a trip through a chamber of horrors. Why? Because a wayfaring observer In the Iron realms of toil may be haunted by the ghoulish law of life the belief that all life to exist must destroy life that men somehow are driven along in discord or consonance with the throbbing of the strange machine of fate.

Starting from the new suspension bridge over the East river, one may begin the Journey. Seven lives have been fed on by the giant spider of Industry in spinning the vast web that now laces Manhattan and Long Island together in marvelous network of cables and strands known as the Williamsburg bridge. Today the great spider broods and lounges with tired eyes half open In contemplating the work now neartng completion. The thousands of spectators who saw the bridge dedicated a few months ago hardly realize the peril that the huge contract meant and means for the builders. Every working day tiny black specks have been plodding to and fro in a tangle of ropes and cables that resembled fairy threads from below.

Those ehsdowy specks, crawling high hi the air, have swung into place 5.000 tons of cable. So high in ths air hang those great ropes, so airy and fragile In outline are those towers that no person gastng upward from the river or shore 08 realise the dimensions of everything connected with the giant swing. It is only when one Is upon the structure itself that tbe true proportion of the serial roadway and the tremendous danger of the builders become apparent. Six days in every seven sn army of men have ignored dsnger in balancing themselves on the heights with their lives in, their hsntls. Tbey have done this for wages not more than sufficient to maintain themselves and their families and 1 i THE BKO FOL.LT.

Only when one of them overbalances and with a trailing cry plunges Into the air and water below are those builders made sware of their danger long enough to entertain a momentary sickening fear that passes away almost as soon as it comes and leaves them on the heights.

Taking a cab at the bridge, the con-noisseeur In dangerous modes of livelihood, while driving to the City Hall park subway entrance, may consider the life of the cabman on the box. Day and night, in rain or sunshine, wet to the skin, or dry as fever, ths cabman pursues his trade. Constant exposure and Irreguiar hours render him prematurely old by slowly and surely sapping hl3 vitality. They generally die at the rate of 1.4&I, as againut 1,000 of the male population In the normal lines of trade. Arriving at the subway and descending into its cavernous laws, as did a writer for The Times yesterday in company with one of the subway contractors, one can reflect while traversing the underground routes from the city halll to Harlem that there has been a victim for every square of ground above our remarkable tunnel.

This has in no wise been due to negligence or any fault on the part of the contractors, for extroar-dinary precautions ha-e been taken to protect property as well aa- life while the giant mole has been burrowing under the half million homes on Manhattan Island. Perhaps the wonder is that more tragedies have not marked the progress ot the subway since lis genesis, and yet when, 89 Contractor John B. McDonald the subway Is thrown open for business on Septenfber 1 It will have claimed an appalling number of victims victims simply of a dangerous trade. The Park avenue tragedy is too enf to need recalling. It suffices to say that this dangerous stage may be Illuminated by a flare of powder or shaken by a blast of dynamite.

Nn one knows better than be does how many of them suffer with such diseases. Patiently, hopefully, wearily, and often silently, they eke out a miserable existence, year after year.

Artificial Snails as Food As est argots, or snails, are not much eaten in this country, the discovery that artificial snails are made will not worry American epicures. In Paris it Is different. Public knowledge of this enterprise came about throvigh the suit of a Paris workman against his employer for injuries received in manipulating a machine for fabricating snails. It was explained that the employer bought empty snail shells from the dustmen and ragpickers. Having cleaned out the shells, the defendant and his people filled them with "mou," that is to say, lights, or cat's meat.

This soft, spongy stuff, before being crammed into the shells, was cut into corkscrew shape by very improved When the shell was filled some liquid fat or grease was poured into it, and the trick was done. The fabricated shells were sold usually at twenty centimes the dozen. Sometimes, when there is a great run on snails, the manufacture ers get a good deal of their "raw material' from Germany. It Is affirmed that there are actually some epicures in Paris who- prefer the sham snail to the genuine article, even when the latter has been among the vine leaves In Burgundy. The artificial escargot is said to have a special flavor, which is highly appreciated.

Lawn socials and cool weather are not boon companions. The ono thrives much better without the company of the other. It was rather cold on Tuesday evening for the social given by the Young Ladiea' society of the First Congregational church, yet this did not prevent the event from being a success. 1 he attendance was somewhat smaller than expected, due to the atmospheric conditions, but. nevertheless, the society will make money through Its enterpriwi.

As ths last words were pro nounced, the pulling of a string at tached to a bag hidden within the bell released a shower of rice on the newly married couple.

After a trip to Chicago and the Wisconsin dells the, young couple will return snd go to housekeeping in the newly built snd furnished flat in the residence or Mr. ana Airs. H. Baker, uncle and aunt of ths bride-. Those In attendance at the wed- I ding from out of the city wsrs Miss Homecrest and Brighton Beach may notice every day a number of tin covered box hou midway between the two places.

Within those queer looking sheds are made tons of fireworks every year, of which most are for uee in the Pain spectacular Every now and then something goes wrong a misplaced fuse or a lighted cigar thrown Into a powder can by a careless workman and then the deaths that lurk In powder flare up In staring news headlines. Fire fighting must also have a prominent place In the dangerous trades of the city. Gotham msy be said never to close Its fourscore argus eyes In the shape of fire engine companies. Day snd night those eyes srs open and watching over the toiling or Bleeping city. One thousand nine hundred and fifty-six men follow this trade In Manhattan.

They seem never quite to earn the tight to rest. It Is their business to keep awake probably the hardest trade ever followed. This fire fighting is a saving trade. By it the city saves untold millions to anxious pockets. By it the firemen save livf by squandering lives their own.

But Fire Chief Croker says the city does not have much trouble tn finding recruits to fill the gaping ranks from year to year. Only second to firemen in the public eye as bearders of danger are the over-caricatured "cops," who never know in what shadowy corner of society a peril may be lurking. Twelve thousand two hundred men in round numbers are following this trade. A few days ago a thrilling scene wne enacted on the roof of one of the tallest and most Imposing church edifices in the city It barely escaped, being a tragedy of the most terrible nature. A hundred spectators were gazing s-pellbound at a steeplejack at work on the dizzy apex of the roof.

From his eyrie the man looked like a Lilliputian. He was leaning over a ledge that hnng over a sheer depth of 200 feet. Suddenly a sharp gust of wind whipped the cloth cap from his head and dropped It on the roof below. Thle steeple climber chose to hazard his life In order to recover his can. He leaned over and started down the slippery roof, overbalanced, tried to throw himself backward, and the space of a single gasp, fnund himself on the flat of his back, sliding head foremost down.
