raE EASTERN QUESTION,

1t is understood that the peace
conference has arranged for the
appointment by the Powers of
three delegates to control the re-.
venues assigned to the service of
the Greek debt.
The Porte is negotiating loan
to cover the evacuation of Thessa-
ly. The ambassadors propose that
the indemnity should be paid in
four yearly instalments Of one
million pounds Turkish. The
Turkish Government wants the
evacuation to occupy the same
period, and wishes to hold Volo
until it has been paid. Germany
demands that Turkey shall be
allowed to hold the districts of
Trikhala and Turnavo until the
indemnity has been paid. England
strongly opposes this.
Turkeys prompt abandonment
of the proposal to send the Tur-
kish fleet to Crete is significant OF
her attitude whenever the Powers
take a bold and united stand.
The deputies representing the
principal provinces have sent to
the foreign sdmirals an official
declaration, accepting autonomy,
and expressing a desire that the
Turkish troops be Withdrawn
from the IslsGd. This action is
attributed to belief of the Gre
tsns that Djevad Pasha, the new
Military Commandant, is really
charged by the Sultan with in
structions to wreck the autonomy
scheme.
Mr.. Goschen, first lord Of the
admiralty, said in the House of
Commons that the action OF the
admirals, III deciding 10 exclude
the Turkish fleet from Cretan
waters, lis not disapproved by Her
Majesty's Government"
Parliament was prorogued on
the 9th inst. The Government
intends next session to deal with
the redistribution Of seats.
The Gauiois OF Paris points out
that under the commercial treaty
concluded between Canada and
France in 1898, France will benefit
by any advantage which Canada
gives Great Britain.
The necessary sum of money to
defray the expenses of the South
Pole expedition having been as

credit OF $4,000 francs,t the steamer
Belgic, with the South Pole ex-
ploring expedition on board, will

teen years we served the peo-
pie Of Honolulu, having nei-
Their accommodation nor pro-
per facilities for conducting
an increasing business, our
efforts for the past seven
months have been mainly di-
rected to erecting a building
ample for our requirements
and equipped with facilities
for handling all business with
dispatch. We feel that this
result has been accomplished
Notwithstanding a number OF
unavoidable delays caused by
material not coming to hand
as anticipated. In giving our
attention to the details of
building we we're obliged to
neglect some of our jobbing
trade which we regret, and
hope under the new condi-
tons to make up for same by
prompt and faithful attention
to all matters placed in our
charge.

Changing silver Into Gold.

Professor Emmons, one Of the mos,
skilled metallurgists in the country,
claims that in the reduction of silver the
molecules are SO subdivided as to differ
30 materially from that metal that they
can no longer be regarded as the same
substance, but a new one and apparently
the parent of both gold and silver, or
the raw material out of which by a diff
fesent arrangement Of molecules either
gold or silver is constructed. Working
on this theory, he fnds that this new
metallic substance oan be aggregated
into molecules Of greater density than
silver and precisely corresponding with
gold in color, in weight. so as to answer
to every test of the United States mint
as gold. In fact, he says it is gold,
though manufactured from silver, of as
much purity and value as that ever OBJ
tanned in any other way. With further
experiments Oh a large scale he expects
that the process Of manufacturing gold
from silver will be very materially
c%heapened. At present he gets about
four ounces of gold from six Of silver.
This would seem to indicate that the
present number Of elements as we'll as
our chemistry of metals would have tc
be revised If Professor Emmons is not
mistaken in his experiments. Jewellers

so the men gathered up the bones OF

other creatures and tied them together

When it came to candy, they could
not get that, either; but instead they
made balls Of whale blubber, or fat, Of

shining buttons, some brass headed

"presents" were also tied On, and then
bits of lighted candles were stuck all
about, giving quite a festive air to the
queerest Christmas tree that was prob

enjoyed it to a wonderful degree, and
the homesiok sailors grew bright and
cheerful in giving them such a novel
pleasure. New York Tribune.

One of the most eminent Of French
physicians, the late Dujardin-B eaumetz,
urged for years before his death that
persons of light or feeble digestion
ahould not eat raw oysters, because they
contain a chemical which excites fer
mentation as oon as it comes in contact
with the gastric juice. Being an easy
carrier of germs, too, the oyster com
municates very readily any pathogenic
microbe which it may contain to the in
testinal canal, and trouble begins at
once. Recent Investigations ~corroborate
the opinion of the French scientist and
may lead to the Punishment of the hith-
erto esteemed raw oyster from the list
of convalescent dainties. 1t is already
al established fact that its nutritive
qualities have been much overrated. $50

Poisoned by a Snake In Alcohol.

A surprising experiment demonstrat-
ing the lasting qualities of snake poison
was recently made by Professor Maison-
neuve, which showed that a dead snake
Is almost as dangerous as a live one.
The professor took an unusually large
specimen of the common viper of south
ern France, which for more than 30
years had been exhibited in the zoolog-
ical museum at Anglers. France, pre-
served in alcohol. The first experiment
with n of the poisonous fangs Of this
snake seemed to show that the 30 years
contact with the alcohol had robbed the
poison of its virulence, for a sparrow
wounded with one of its teeth did not
develop any symptoms of being poisoned.
The cause of the nonaction of the poison
at first was speedily found, however, in
the t%hickening Of the poison at the en-
trance of the canal into the tooth, which
prevented the poison from flowing.
When Professor MaisoDneuve extracted
some of the poisonous substance with a
fine needle and injected a minimal por-
ton OF it into the sparrow, the latter
showed all the symptoms of poisoning
inside of half an hour, which gradually
increased until it died in commissions in
az hours after the injection OF the poi
son. As it was heretofore believed that
snake poison loses its dangerous and
vlrulent qualities with the death of the
reptile, great care in handling dead
snakes will be a matter of common sense

Auntie's Practical Arithmetic.

grammar school on RiDgold street, that
an aged colored woman, weary and

comprehended for the first time in her
life that the figure A meant four single

saw in a store on the following day the
sign, ''Tacks, 4 cents; hammers, 4
cents" she could not resist the tempta-
ton to count out two little piles of four
pennies each from her scanty supply and
make the purchase. She did not need Ell

she walked out of the store as triumph
antly as would a business man who had

Uses of Aluminium.

1t is claimed that aluminium plates
are destined to become the universal
material for photographic printing,
which mean a revolution in the litho-
graphic art. OF all the metals that have
been tried besides aluminium, says The
Aluminium World, to replace the cum
bersome photographic stone, zinc ia the
only metal which has given any salts
faction, but it was found that zinc
could not be depended upon. To insure
good work the zinc plates must be alb
solutely pure, and even then many col
ors cannot be printed from zinc with
safety. Aluminium has been proved to
be as good as stone. The metal ap-
proaches the physical properties of lith-
ographic stone from its ability to alb
sOrb fats or Shiny substances.
Racing skates are now made Of alu-
minimum, affording at the same time ex-
ceptional strength and lightness, a pair
weighing only "a ounces.
Aluminium articles for the toilet are
now made in great variety, among 9TH
er things combs, razor handles and
hairpins.
Pens made Of an aluminium alloy, it
ia claimed, write easily and do not rust.
A company has put on the market
aluminium guitars, banjos, %mandolins
and lutinas. The instruments are made
out of one piece of sheet aluminium
pressed into shape. They are satin fin
ished, and not only make a beautiful
looking instrument, but give a rich
