Wireless Telephones.

London Correspondence New York World: For some weeks experiments of great interest in wireless telephony ss distinguished from wireless teleg- raphy have been carried on near Car naYon by Sir William Pierce. Four high poles have been erected at the south end of Menal straits on a sand bank across the GWyrfal river. Half a mile off four similar poles were erected Half a mile still farther is a high pole supporting a coil of wire, with one end anchored in deep water. Between these points Sir William has succeeded, without any intermediary other than lher, in transmitting the sound of a succession of taps. The taps were made with view to sending messages by the Morse code. They were distinctly heard at the receiving station by placing newly invented ethereal telephone to the ear. Mes sages were sent without interruption for several days. Further experiments are contemplated. So far the system yields much more rapid results than Marconi.s. although the sounds are not quite so distinct

 CURIOUS ALBlNO TREE.
One Discovered Growing in Garden in
 London.

One Discovered Growing in Garden In
 London.
 Much interest has been caused lately by the appearance of a horse chestnut tree in the Thiergarten. The numer- ous branches around the lower part of the trunk have pure white foliage, such as is seen on trees growing in dark places, where no ehlorophyll can develop on account of want of light. The same whiteness of the leaves is also noticeable in few of the neigh boring branches through the crown to the top. People are often puzzled as to the cause of the peculiarity, and many strange explanations are some times given. The singular appearance of the tree has been noticed regularly for some years. This particular tree, it seems, had been attacked by a swarm of eaterpillars and other erea- lures of the same species, and the foliage had already been destroyed; but still masses of eaterpillars contin- ued to crawl up and down the trunk, and finally clung there in 1umps To preserve the beautiful tree, after other means had been tried in vain, solu- tion of acid was used, and the ground all around was watered with it, as well as the trunk and the branches, which were specially drenched. This treatment proved successful. The tree gradually recovered, and now stands in it's full strength and freshness, but has ever since shown the already de- scribed whiteness of its leaves, which presents by no means unpleasant contrast to the otherwise dark green Standard.

SURE OF FRESH kuoo.

Dealers in Germany Are Fined Fifteen
 Eggs for Every Bad One.
 The Germans are practical nation. Having realized that by proper organ ization they can keep within the Ger man border the 150,00000 marks, or say $30,000, ,000, which the people of the empire now pay to foreigners for poul- try and eggs, they have formed a club for the purpose of developing a home poultry business. Egg depots are to be established in the principal cities, notably at Chemnitz, Dresden and Leipzig. The public are to be supplied with eggs, the good quality and fresh ness of which will be absolutely guar anteed. This system will give eonfi- dence to customers and at the same time give poultry raisers a more cer- tain and a quicker market for their product than they could otherwise se- cure. In order that bad eggs may be traced to their origin, each poultryman is required, before sending his eggs to the depot, to mark them with sign previously determined upon, which will designate them as fresh eggs and denote their source. For each egg sold which proves to be inedible the pur- chaser is entitled to receive fifteen good ones without charge; and the products of the egg-raiser who deliv- cred the bad egg to the depot are to be excluded therefrom for stated period.-London Telegraph.

TIE IMPORTATION OF MONKEYS
organ Grinders Do Not Carry Them

Here Nowadays.
 A man who had missed the mon- keys formerly carried about by organ grinders in the city streets, and who had attributed their disappearance to the changed conditions of the organ grinding business, to the substitution of the big ptano-ergan on wheels, managed by two persons, for the oid- fashioned smaller hand-ergan. that was carried about by the player, found upcn inquiry that. whatever influence the changed conditions might have had. the carrying of monkeys by or gan-g grinders is now prohibited here by [ city ordinance. There are, how ever, places in which the monkey still forms a valuable part of the organ efindeIs s outfit. and where the nimble little animal, clad in an embroidered jacEet and wearing a fancy hat, which | doffs for tie pennies, still climbs fences and raiHwater conductors, and hops Up on porcAes quite ill the old familiar way, in search of contribu- tioas. While monkeys are not per mi6ted here, there are men who buy monkeys and train them to sell to rgan-grinders who can use them else where and a WeIl-trained monkeS sometimes brings as much as $50. IL had seemed, with fewer monkeys in sight, as though there must be fewer monkeys now imported, but the faef appears to be that, if anything, tN importation is just now rather great& than usual, due to the increased de- mand from the show people, who are, after all, the greatest purchasers of monkeys in this country. The organ grinders use a considerable number; a few, comparatively, are sold for zo- ologieal collections, and in recent years a few have been sold for pets; but the largest buyers of monkeys are the traveling shows, of which there are, besides the great, modern, consoli- dated shows, many smaller ones, show ing in smaller towns throughout the country Take them all together, and these shows use up good many monkeys. The life of a monkey on the road is usually but a single season. The show renews it's stock of monkeys every year.

PRESERVING AFRICAN BIG CAME
British Government Will Protect the
 Fp a4l2 of Africa.

With reference to the international action which the government has in view for the preservation of the big fauna of Africa, have had the oppor- tunity of hearing the opinion of one of the greatest living authorities on the subject. This individual las passed the greater part of his life in the dis triets of Africa affected by the legisla- ton in force and prospective for pro- hibiting the killing of big game. He as- sures me that all the laws in operation fall to achieve the purpose in view in the localities where the natives are al- lowed to carry guns. Tn British East Africa, where the whites are strictly forbidden to shoot big game without authority, the natives are allowed to kill indiscriminately and without check everything they come across. In Mashonaland and Matabeleland, on the other hand, since the disarmament of the natives there has been a percep- tible increase ill certain species, and this increase is likely to gradually be- come more marked as time goes on and the regulations are enforced. Antelope of different kinds have lately been seen in the neighborhood of Buluwayo, which it had been thought had con- pletely disappeared from the country, and there is reason to believe that in Rhodesia the danger of extinction of many of the species, which at one time was real. had been checked if not alto gether ayerted.-Birmingh Post.

Whales reotl, as Coinage.

Whales teeth form the coinage of the Fiji islands. They are painted white and red, the red teeth being worth about twenty times as much as the white The native carries his wealth round his neck, the red and white of his coinage forming bril- nanI contrast to his black skin, A common and curious sight in the Fiji islands is a newly married wife pre- senting her husband with dowry of whales teeth.

 A Refused Income.

The Italian government, for twenty seven years. has guaranteed to the pope an annual income of about G150,- 900, which he has steadily refused to accept. The arrears of this annuity amount now to over G4,000, ,000.
