NERVE And TACT.
Both Are Necessary in the Manages
ncnt of Wild Animals.


The late Frank Ives Frayne of the 4
blood and thunder drama had a Won
derful knack in managing the animala<
that appeared on the stage with him.
To inquirers who wondered how he did
it he always replied that the secret lay
in his GOODNESS in time of danger and
in his presence of mind. He called it
nerve" But there was something else
in F'rayne besides nerve. His animals
were always in his thoughts, and while
he ruled them with a rod of iron they
obeyed him because he instinctively
knew when to be hard and when to be
gentle. In summer, on his farm, near
Madison, n. J., he had many of his
wild animals tied TO the posts Of the
board fence. Any pleasant day Frayne
might be seen walking along the fence
petting or feeding two or three bears,
some monkeys and hyenas, and other
members of his curious happy family
strung at intervals in front of the
house. F'rayne was very proud of Old
Duke, or Bob Ingersoll, as his stage
name went, the lion that killed his
Clydesdale stallion four years ago. It
was Fraynes habit to carry in his
pocket pictures of Old Duke. which he
gave to his friends at the conclusion of :
story how Old Duke had killed three
men at one blow each with his paw.
The story was founded on fact.
Frayne had photographs also of Old
Duke lying down with a bantam hen
perched on his name. The hen and lion
were friends for several years. No one
but Frayne had ever been able to con-
Quor Old Duke.

ADVANTAGES FOR COINAGE.
The substitution of aluminium for
copper and nickel has long been a sub
ject of debate and a. bill is now before
the house of representatives authoriz-
ing the secretary of the treasury to
make a trial of aluminium coins. The
advantages of aluminium for coinage
are these:
First-It takes a fine impression
when stamped.
Second-Wears remarkably well.
Third-It resists coGrosion better than
copper, bronze or any of the common
metals. Besides this if it does corrode
slightly, the salts formed are harmless,
which is more than can be said of any
either metal.
Weight for weight, it is
cheaper than copper and only slightly
deare1- than nickel alloy.
Fifth-Lightness "At present" to
quote Professor Richards, the people
of the United States are carrying
around probably 5000 tons of minor
coins Aluminum's weight is about
one-third of that of copper or nickel;
so we could reduce that weight 1000
toms by adopting aluminium. The
horseless carriages, which are attract
ing so much attention now, could be
most advantageously built of alumni
mum, thereby making them noe only
much lighter, but much stronger. Med
ical Instruments are being made of
aluminium. The harmlessness of the
metal makes it exceptionally desirable
for use in surgery and when &, man has
to be braced up he will find aluminium
a great comfort. During the coming
political campaign many doughty
leader will wish his legs were made of
aluminium. Aluminium is made from
a clay, which is composed of alumni
ma, feTTic oxide silica, water and Ill
tanic acid. The TRANSFORMATION of this
clay into a beautiful white metal is
accompanied by dissolving alumina into
a fused bath composed of the fiuorides
of aluminium and sodium, and then
passing an electric current. by means
of a carbonaceous anode, through the
fused mass. In other words, the pure
aluminium made from ore by a chemical
process is stirred into a solvent bath
of double fiuorides of aluminium and
sodium. and when this is dissolved an
electric current is then sent through
this mixture.

Aluminium, the youngest of all met
ais, is rapidly coming into general use.
1t was discovered by Frederick Woh-
Ter, a German professor, in 1927, but to
St. Clair Deville, a Frenchnan, belongs
the honor of being the founder of the
aluminium industry.
The first article made of this metal
was in compliment to Louis Napoleon
who had helped Deville-a baby rat
tie for the infant prince imperial.
REDUCED FROM 5000 TO As CENTS
A POUND.
In 1856, when the first aluminium
company was formed, the cost of a
pound of the metal was about 5000.
In 1889 Charles NJ. Hall OF Oberlin, o.,
patented an eiectrotype. process. He
with a few of his friends then started
a small plant on the bank of the Ale
gheny river eighteen miles above Pitts
burg. The first year the company pro-
duced seventy-five pounds of alumni
I'm a day, which they sold for $3.50 a
pound. In 1895 a company built a
large plant at Niagara Falls, and this
year they are building additional
works. When these are completed they
will nave an output of 11,000. pounds
daily. This Improvement will put the
United States in front as the largest
aluminium producing country in the
world.
ADAPTED TO GENERAL USE.
Aluminum's weight is about one third
of that of iron, and only steel of the
highest quality and the best aluminium
bronze will give a greater strength for
a given weight than aluminium 1t
stands high in the list of malleable
metals and can be drawn into wire
1-250th of an inch in thickness. It is
an excellent conductor of electricity,
and would at 90 cents a pound take
the place of copper for all electrical
purposes.
In ship building. where hghtness is
demanded, aluminium meets every re-
quirement. Corrosion and galvanic ac-
ton are easily overcome by properly
painting the part subject to the action
of the water and by using aluminium
rivets. France and Germany have sew
eral torpedo boats made of aluminium
and numberless pleasure yachts are be-
ing constructed every year of this
metal
In Germany two army corps are
equipped with aluminium, which in
cludes cheyrons and every article of
metal that is carried on the person,
even the buttons on their clothes and
the pegs in their shoes. Their sword,
bayonet scabbards and contents are
also made of the metal. In Paris there

A Peaceful Settlement Probable.

Present advices from Washington are
to the effect that the Venezuelan COM
mission is, after all, to partake of the
character of a tribunal of arbitration.
Before it's finding shall be communi-
Gated to congress, a duplicate copy of
finding and testimony Is to be submit
ted, it is said, to the British govern
ment and also to Venezuela, with an
intimation that If either side of the
controversy has not been fairly repre-
sented, an opportunity for a review will
be offered before the final adjudication
will be made public.
This is plainly a fair programme,
and there Is said to be good foundation
for the belief that the Salisbury min
istry, having already so far receded
from it's original position as to author
ize the submission before the commits
sion of the English case. will go the
further step of having counsel present
at the conclusion, ready to meet the
counsel of Venezuela half way in all
effort to reach an amicable agreement.

would preserve Great Britain from the
inevitable stigma of a persistence in
her initial refusal to place her conten.

A Boom in the Sugar Trade.

An effect of the Cuban war which
Americans will not relish threatens to
be a shortage in the sugar crop. This
years estimated crop in Cuba, at one
time placed at LOO. 900 tons, has fallen
to 100000. and if the war continues
two months longer. it will disappear
altogether. William A. Havemeyer
the foremost American authority on
the sugar trade. predicts that the re-
tail price of sugar will raise certainly
/ cent per pound in consequence of this
shortage, and possibly or 8 cents. An
other bad consequence is that much
of the cane growth in Cuba has been
trampled down, circumstance which
will make these plantations non-pro-
ductive for four years. The higher
price for sugar therefore may continue
throughout the next American admin
istratlon, from causes over which it will
have no control.
Last year the United States con.
sumed 1924 tons of sugar. of which
nearly half--to be exact, Sl9,967 tons
came from Cuba. We took last year
four-tlfths of Cuba's crop. The cutting
