more light on this latter subject than the most
profound Shakesperian can on the question
first propounded. If the system is depleted,

occurred to the deceased some time ago.
Col. Dashiell was born In Baltimore,
Maryland, in 1904, and graduated at
West Point, entering the United States
army, and at one time was paymsster
In this department. When the war

States army and Joined the confederate
service, maintaining bis position with
honor until the close of the war. At one
time he was editor of the defunct San

principal Odd Fellow in the state, and Is
said to have been the oldest Odd Fellow

to live only for his Episcopalian church,
and for Odd Fellowism. Rain or fine,
warm or cold, dark or light, Dashiell
was always in his place at the church or
lodge meeting. setting grand example
to Christians and to Odd Fellows"

The light of the firefiies of tropical

light of BLUSH tint, according to Dubois
This naturalist has made extremely inter

The eggs which he dried retained their
luminosity for week, the light reappear-

ground the luminosity organs in mortar,
after having dried them in vacuum,
and then mixed them in boiled water, the

DR.. Dubois concluded that the light of
the pyrophorus is intended as illumina-

and the animal moved in curve; when
both spots were covered the beetle soon
