FAST BEING DIFFERENTIATED.
Extent of the Catch of the PeIagic
Sealing FIeet-SmaIl Catch by
Regular Company.

An authentic report regarding the
pelagic sealing fleet has just been re-
ceived in San Francisco. Among the
poachers that have made the largest
catches were the following: Enter
prise, $50 skins; Minnie, 400; San Di-
ego, G73; Theresa, 800, and Otto, 1877.
These skins, being excluded from the
United States, are shipped TO England,
where the rookeries on Commander
duced rates.
In consequence Of the persistent
work of the poachers, who are fast
exterminating the seals, the North
American Commercial company's catch
this season is only $4,000 skins, as
against 100000 annually for 20 years,
up TO within the last eight years, when
pelagic sealing commenced. The same
inroads have been made in the seal
herds on the Japan side of the ocean,
where the rookeries on Commander
islands, leased 10 the Russian Sealskin
company, are located. This company
has taken this year 1900 seals, as
against an average of $4,000 seals an
nually for 20 consecutive years, up 10
the time of the beginning Of pelagic
sealing

New Quaker City syvindIe.

Philadelphians have evolved a new
ndustry-falling off street cars and
then settling claims for damages for
a moderate sum. Three experts at this
industry were caught recently, and
in court one admitted to having settled
three claims with the street car COM
pany for $50, SIT and $40, respectively.
The wife of one of the trio also real
lied $50 by falling off car and pre-
tending to injuries which only cash
would heal. The claim department at
torneys of the traction company feel
sure there is gang" of considerable
size which has successfully carried on
this petty swindle for some three
months.

Tight-Lacing Responsible for the
Death Of Bernhard Rank. the
German Actor.

Corsets, il is believed, caused the
death of Bernhard Rank, the German
comedian.
For years Rank played women's
parts on the stage, which necessitated
his wearing corsets. He was engaged
by the Germania theater, New York,
and became known as one Of the best
Saxon dialect comedians in the coun-
try.
His corpulence and age made the
task of shaping his waist on the fem
mime pattern especially hard for Rank
this year. He had always complained
of having 10 wear corsets.
"If | was a woman" he said, 81
would never wear them. / know how
uncomfortable they are and how in
furious, too, and if l could l would
start an anti-corset crusade"
The Germania opened a week ago,
with Rank in a woman's role in 1.-The
Corner Grocer of Avenue A."
He had been on a vacation all sum-
mer, and his corsets had TO be laced
extra tight. He suffered much pain
and ascribed ii TO the corsets. He
went TO a physician about 1t, but Sc
cured no relief.
Later the actor was attacked with
severe pains in his side. He stayed, in
bed all day. When his servant went TO
call him al $3.50 o'clock in the evening
he was found dead.

WILL SHIP PIGS OF SILVER.
1t Can BE More Conveniently Coined
at san Francisco, So 1t VIII
he Sent There.

Assistant Secretary Vanderlip, of
the treasury department, has re-
turned from Chicago. He went there
to arrange for large shipment of sill
yer bullion across the continent. Mr.
Vanderlip said:
at is contemplated TO ship about
100000 ounces of silver bullion from
the mint in Philadelphia TO the mint
in San Francisco. Silver bullion is
not money any more than pig iron is,
and there Is 10 more reason why we
should ship pigs of silver by express
than we should ship pigs of lead that
way twill be shippedby freight under
guard. Ibelieve there little risk, hard
~ any more than if it were lead. The
pigs weigh about IS pounds each. Even
if some one had an opportunity to take
the silver he would need a dray 10 carry
il. The government has a surplus of
gold at the Philadelphia mint, and
wishes 20 coin it as rapidly as pos
sible. At the San Francisco mint the
conditions are such that silver can be
coined without trouble. 1t is neces-
sary that a certain amount of silver
should De coined every month"

TAPEWORM IN AN EGG.
Jersey City Doctor Finds One That
Measures Four Feet in
Length.

DR.. Seth B. Sprague has on exhibit
ton a tapeworm which he took from
an egg that was served with several
others for his breakfast at Jersey City,
y. j., the other morning. DR.. Sprague
says that the egg had cracked in boil
ing, and when he took it from the
dish he saw what seemed to be worm
protruding from the orifice. Carefully
removing the shell. he found the worm
coiled up, and when 1t was stretched
out it proved 10 be four feet long.
The white and yolk of the egg, DR..
Sprague said, were in perfect condi-
tion, the worm occupying the large
end of the egg, in which the air is
stored. 1t was a double puzzle, he
said, as TO how the worm got into the
egg, and, second, how it could have
coiled itself tightly enough 10 fit so
small a space. The second problem DR.
Sprague gave UP, but as TO the first,
he said the hen that laid the egg had
probably swallowed the germ of the
worm, which, when it developed, had
been inclosed in the shell of the egg,
either by a freak or some process Of
nature, for the hens protection.

REPRODUCES COLOR.
McDonough's New Photographic
Process Put to Test
Proves "A Great Success I'm the Prep
aration of stereopticOn slides
science Deeply In
terested.

The McDonough color photography,
used in the preparation of stereopticon
slides, proved to be a great success in
the public test made at the Field mu-
scum, Chicago, the other day. The
colors as they appeared on the screen
blended perfectly. In the experiment
the most difficult colors were dealt
with, dull gold being the most in evil
dence. The pictures reproduced were
of jewelry and vases taken from the
pyramids of Egypt, and supposed to
have been placed there with Queen
Aahotep 1000 b. c. Twenty specimens
of the curious oriental workmanship
were exhibited on each slide. The coll
ors shown were gold, carnelian, lapis
lazuli and violet. The photographs
had been taken from color print page
ten by twelve inches in size. The pic
lures were thrown on an immense
screen.
The slides were used in the illustra-
ton of lecture on THE Pyramids of
Egypt" by Prof. James II. Breasted,
of the University of Chicago. He spoke
enthusiastically of the new discovery
in photography which enabled him TO
xSresent a scene in the colors of nature.
s"Color photography is of incalculable
Importance in future culture" he said.
'To be able 10 reproduce nature in its
original color is matter of such great
import that il cannot be given ade-
quate expression. To show the colors
of nature in the tropics with its beauti-
full effects is an achievement of sur
passing Importance in the scientific
world. II is the fruition of science,
the elimination of scientific endeavor."
Prof. c. F. Millspaugh presided, and
many members of the university were
present. f. Burton Holmes was an in
terested spectator and expressed the
belief that soon all plates for stere-
opticon use would be made by the new
method, which seemed superior 10 the
old. II. T. West, secretary of the In
ternational Color Photography COM
pany, represented those who are devel-
oping the McDonough process. The
scientists at the university are par
ticularly interested in the isochromatic
plates and pronounce them invaluable
TO science.
