VALUABLE EGGS.
Some of British Birds Worth More Than
Their eight In Gold.

4heiF W cIgnt IN 1Old.
Not few of the eggs of British birds are
worth more than their weight in gold, while
those of certain species which are supposed
to have become extinct bring quite fabulous
prices. A well-marked pair Of golden eagles
eggs have been known to fetch 925. The mar
ket value OF an egg OF the swallowed-tailed
kite is 3 guineas, Of Pallas' sand grouse 3Os.,
while ten times that amount was recently
offered for an egg of this Asiatic species
taken in Britain. On the other hand, the
eggs of certain of the social breeding birds
are so common in their season as to be sys-
tematicaly collected for domestic purposes.
And this in face of the fact that many of
them are remarkably alike for size, shape
and beauty OF cOloring. This applies p r.
ticularly to the guillemot, whose eggs are
often remarkably handsome. As rule, the
color of these is BLUSH green, heavily
blotched, and streaked with brown or black.
and the form that of an elongated handsome
pear.
The guillemot is one of our commonest cliff
birds, and is found in greatest abundance at
Flamoorongh Head The eggs are syys--
tematlcally gathered by men who are let
down the rocks in ropes. They traverse the
narrOwest lodges, placing the eggs which
they gather daily in baskets fastened around
their shoulders. The guillemot makes no
nest. lays but one egg, and incubation lasts
about month. The birds sit upright, ana
when suddenly alarmed. as by the firing of
gun, the eggs fall in showers into the sea.
Most of those collected at Marlborough are
sent TO Leeds, where the albumen is used
in the preparation of patent leather, while
the eggs taken on Lundy are used at Bristol
in the manufacture of sugar.
At the British neutrality-suspicious. of the
gannet or Solan goose thousands of birds
breed annually, though in numbers less
than formerly. In this case the young
birds, not = the eggs. are taken; and on
North Barfa from 1000 to 5000 birds are
captured in season. The collector kills
the gannets as they are taken from the
nest, and they are then thrown into the sea
beneath, where IA boat is in waiting to pick
them up. In the Faroes the people keep
January 25th as festival in consequence of
the return of tho bird.-The Cornhill Maya
zine.

CREMATION IN MILAN.
4 Pile of Ashes, White and Hinged
With Delicate Pink.

Two systems of cremation are followed at
Milan, by one of which the body is burned
in furnace surrounded by wood and char
coal, while by the other the combustion is
brought about through number of jets of
gas which cast their heat upon the furnace
from all sides. When wood and charcoal
are employed, about six hundred pounds of
wood and one of charcoal are found neces-
sary, and the process lasts two hours.
When gas is used. all that is con-
sumable in the body is burned up in
less than fifty minutes. The body may,
i'll ordinary cases, be introduced into
the furnace with or without the coffin. But
if death has been caused by some infectious
disease, the coffin and body must be burned
together. The weight of the remains after
cremation, in the form of bones ana dust, is
about four pounds. They are in color Of
pure white, tinged here and there with a
delicate pink; and it is rule never to touch
them with the hand. The bones and YES
tiges of bones (Which are for the most part
burned into POWDER are taken up with sill
yer tOng>, while the ashes are removed from
the furnace with silver shovel, to be placed
on silver dish and then deposited in an urn
for retention in the cinerarium Here the
ashes are preserved in separate compart-
ments, each with suitable inscription be-
meath it.
The cost of cremation is 25f. to a member
Va tHt oUtlttS lOl III
Italy, or 50f. in the case of n0n-members.
Arrangements have been made too by which
the bodies of persons dying without means
may be cremated gratuitonsly. In these
cases the cost of the process is met by adj
hitting visitors into the crematorium to
view the operation az charge of 81. head.
The privilege of being cremated is not re-
stricted to persons dying at Milan, nor to
Italians. 1t may be seen from the memo
rial tablets that many persons dying beyond
the Italian frontier have been cEemated at
Milan. On one of these occurs the name of
Fanny Murray, who died at Geneva, April
"a, 1887; ON another that of Princess Mar
garet Andreievna Ouchtomsky, who Iied at
Nice, October 90, 1888. 1t appears from an
inscription beneath the cinerary urn of DR..
Gaspare Belcredi of the Society of Crema-
ton that his family refused to allow
his body to be cremated, whereupon
appeal was made to the tribunal of
Bergame, to which place he belonged,
decision being at once pronounced to the
effect that the wishes of the deceased must
be respected, and that his body must he
given up for cremation. Among the for
eigners whose bodies have been cremated at
Milan may be mentioned a Frenchman
whose name | caunot transcribe from my
ill-written notes. but who died at Mentone.
The cremation took place under the direc-
ton of his wife, and on the tablet are in
seribed these words, "Cendres de mon
bien Anne epoux" Another Frenchman,
whose body has been cremated at Milan, j.
Griesstrant by name, is described in the me-
mortal tablet as having been ian ardent
apostle of justice and progress. The West

THE GRAMOPHONE.
An Invention by Which Sound Can Be
Reproduced Zinc.

An Invention by Which Sound Can Be
Reproduced on Zinc.
Emile Berliner of this city has perfected
his invention, the gramophone, and claims
that it is the greatest sound-reproducing
machine in existence. Mr.. Berliner is the
inventor OF the transmitter used ON the tele-
phones Of the Bell Company, and is still
retained by the company as one of its cleo
tricians. He first exhibited the gramo-
phone. not then brought TO perfection, in
Philadelphia May 16, 1883, before the Frank
lin Institute. A short time afterward he
exhibited it before the Technical Society, at
the Grand Army of the Republic Hall, in
this city. Since then he has spent a year
at laboratories in Europe. where he put the
finishing touches on his invention.
Mi. Berliner has been from Europe only
few weeks. He has one of his machines
at his laboratory, on the corner of Ninth
and L. streets. aud its reproduction of the
human voice Is remarkable for its clearneSs
In pronunciation, information and emphasis.
The process Of reproduction is short. A
disc OF polished zinc is covered with fatty
flu for an etching ground. 1t is placed ON
turn-table, and as one talks in the tube tile
disc is revolved and the vibrations caused
by the sound are traced in the film by a
small pen. The etched plate is put into
chronic acid and in fifteen minutes is ready
for use. 1t is put on another turntable and
revolved by the turning of a crank A stiff
pen tfa"es the etched lines and reproduces
the vibrations on rubber or vulcanite
diaphragm. by which the original sound is
carried into the tube. The pitch of the re-
produced voice can be made high or low,
according as the crank is turned rapidly or
slowly.
There is practically no limit. Mr.. Berliner
says, to the number of reproductions that
can be made from one plate Washington
Post.

Of Jena, the most prominent OF its kind, had
at last inaugurated the revolution, which he
had expected for five years.
Resuming the thread which he had laid
down in his "Critique of Pure Reason" this
journal announced new order of things,
trine, which suddenly. like mighty
storm wind. stirred all the scientific
circles of the age. Nobody seemed
to have been able to comprehend
Rants clumsilv written book. But
the lucid presentation of Reinold, who stood
at the head of the Jena Journal, was the
key which unlocked the new realm to the
fraternity of the thinkers. Rants doctrine
proved victorious. Reinold. the able ex-
FOUNDER of its articles, was called upon to
occupy the chair of philosophy at the Uni
versity of Jena, and his audiences numbered
the abest men of Germany and Europe.
The Thuringian University became the
chief preparatory school for the philosophy
of Kant, and jena maintained a position of
greater potency in that respect than Ko-
nigsberg itself. This was the dawn Of Jena's
lustrous day, which reached its climax dur
ing the following decades.
On the Goth of Nav, 17S9 an unusual eX-
element was noticeable among the students
of jena. Frederick Schiller, the most pop
ular of the German poets, delivered his
opening address as the newly appoin ted pro-
fessor of philosophy. Marks of the highest
esteem were Sh0Wered upon him. lie SPOKE
to an audience of more than 500 people,
while at the same time the anterooms over
flowed with others, which the lecture-room
was too small to accommodate. FROM that
day on the poet was one of the faculty of
the University of Jena until 1899, when he
removed to the adjacent Weimar, the resi-
dence of the generous patron. Karl August,
and the home of his warmest friend, Goethe.
Even during his soiourn at Jena Schiller's
fame shed its luminous rays far beyond the
border line of Germany. The best men of
that day were enthusiastic in his praise;
persons of high rank contributed to his sup
port by annual stipends. and the French
Republic made him an honorary member.
And all this fame and splendor reverted
upon Jena, the university of the Thuringian
lands. which were favored by the famous
poets constant presence.

MOWERS, she smiles ana Antony Is conquered.
He frees the inhabitants Of Tarsis, and
with Cleopatra goes to the ancient palace of
Rameses in Egypt. For him ever after there
is no Rome, no faithful DICTIONARIES, nothing
but Cleopatra. In this palace there is feast
ing and dancing until the Roman triumvirs
come for Antony. His ally, Octavius, with
whom he has shared the empire Of the
world, demands his assistance because Sex
tus Pompey has sworn the ruin of Rome.
$50 much the BETTER exclaims Antony,
"Let him take care of the Occident; have
the Orient, and it is sufficient for me"
But here the Queen interferes and COM
mands him to leave her.
IF you let Oetavius perish his conaueror
will, In his turn, conquer you. And if you
allow Octavius to triumph without you, take
care; for later he will triumph over yOu."
When Antony leaves for Rome Cleopatra
buckles on his cuirass, and in so doing, her
finger is pricked, and drop of blood falls
unon his white costume. This he takes as
an evil omen, but Cleopatra dispels his fears,
and when he leaves she drives away the
dancers from the palace and says:
Silence and mourning until his return"
The most dramatic situation is the third
act, when messenger arrives from Rome
and announces the marriage of Antony and
Octava. This is the only portion of the
play that resembles Shakespeare's "CleO-
patra."
Cleopatra is at the Palace OF Memphis; on
a terrace under an awning she reclines ON
divan. The moonbeams shine upon her
white tunic. her favorite slaves lie at her
