opals For Bird ballast.

r. E. z. Van Dyke informs us that he has
killed a number of blue grouse from time
to time in the region of Crandle creek
and that in the crop of the birds he has
found opals. 1t is thought by Mr.. Van
Dyke that the birds pick up these opals
in the Bad Lands in the vicinity of Red
Lodge and use the precious stones for
ballast. The opals found in the crop of
the mountain grouse are of fine charac-

good conduct has been partly due to the

WOOD PULP SILK.
C~hhrdomet's Discovery Perfected and .
MIN Started I'm France

#- N# III 6N&E&@& &M ~ ##L##s#F
An experiment is being made at Besan-
con, In France, with q substitute for silk,
which will be watched with interest.
The invention, that Of Count de Chardo-
met, is to convert wood pulp into soft
silken thread, durable, luminous and
elastic. The ''silk" threads produced
! from the wood pulp were first shown at
the last Paris exhibition, when they en-
joyed a good deal of attention among
those interestedin the silk industry. But
the process was at that time far from
complete, and many improvements had
to be made before the invention could be
regarded al a commercial success.
That point, in the opinion of Count de
Chardomet, has now been reached, and
a mill has been built for the manufacture
Of goods from the new material. There
are still some details in the process which
must be improved before capitalists are
likely to embark in the venture. Oneof
the great difficulties, it appears, that has
to be overcome is the swapping of the
threads while they are being spun, owing
to the unequal pressure which is exer-
SAcSA III AOASLuS lhC N0pA pump hhAohSA
an exceedingly small aperture, so as to
convert it into thread. This is a defect,
however, which the inventor is confident
he will soon overcome. After the wood
has been reduced to the consistency of
pulp it is dried in an oven and then
plunged into a mixture of sulphuric and
nitric acids, washed in several baths of
water and dried by alcohol. The prod
uct is afterward dissolved in ether and
pure alcohol, and the result is collodion
similar to that used in photography.
This c~ollodion, which is a sticky, Wis
cous substance, is inclosed in a solid
receptacle furnished with a filter at the
lower end. An air pump sends COM
pressed air into the receptacle, and by
this pressure the collodion is forced
through horizontally in the form of fine
threads. AS the thread is forced out it
passes through a vessel filed with ether
and alcohol, which solidifies the colo
dion and makes it elastic andas brilliant
as silk. If the invention turns out as
successfully as its inventor anticipates,
it will be the beginning of a very impor-
tant Observation-Disclosures Scotsman.

MISS HATCH'S CURE.
b Thinks 1t Was Due to Supernatural In

She Thinks 1t Was Due to Supernatural In
huence, but the Doctor Says Not.
Miss Mary Hatch, a young woman of
excellent family, who lives with her
mother at 1912 Hickory street, is reioic-
ing in her recent relief from a tumor
which had made her miserable for seven
years. She attributes her cure to the
virtues of a relic of Mime. Barat, a
French religieuse of the Order of the
Sacred Heart. Miss Hatch had taken
medical treatment without benefit and
had finally come to despair of cure by
other than surgical means.
Some one advised her to apply to the
Sisters of the Sacred Heart for a relic
that might, with faith and prayer, help
to sustain her through such an opera
ton. She did so and was told that her
cure by supernatural means was not i'm
possible. She received from the mother
superior a relic of Mime. Barat and a
form of prayer and was directed to sew
the relic into her dress and repeat the
prayer at frequent intervals for a term
of nine days.
On the sixth day of the novena Miss
Hatch was relieved of the tumor without
other than natural assistance and since
then has been rapidly recovering
strength. She was seen by a representa-.
tive of The Post Dispatch and talked n
Enthusiastically of her cure, ascribing it en-
tirely to the virtues of faith and PRAYER
and the relic. Her mother and the Sis
tiers of the Sacred Heart hold the same
opinion as to the cause of the cure.
DR.. Robert j. O'Reilly, who gave Miss
Hatch some attention at different times,
said: I believe / saw Miss Hatch four
times and prescribed for her. But | had
not seen her since June up to the time of
her delivery of the tumor. / considered
the tumor a simple fieshy growth that
might pass off of itself if let alone, and /
did not at any time consider the young
woman's condition critical. I hesitated,
however, to make a thorough examina-
tion for reasons that medical men will
appreciate. You may put me down as
saying that / do not think there was any
thing supernatural about this cure
