George Foster, formerly cashier of
the South Danvers National bank, of
Peabody, Mass, is charged with en-
bezzling $4,000 from that institution.
His arrest followed the appointemnt
of receiver. The amount named i'll
the warrant does not represent the
entire loss to the bank, according to
one of the United States officials. AS
the stockholders have been assessed
100 per cent, by the Comptroller of
the Currency, it is understood that
the entire capital of $15O,OOO together
with the surplus, had disappeared.

CURIOUS OLD WATCH FOUND,
AntiIuarians Interested In m Large
silver Timepiece Bearing
Date of 1927.

Antiquarians are engaged in examin
ing watch found recently on Poverty
island, at the mouth of the Connecticut
river, by Hub Gillard. clam-diggei
and vender. The watch is large silver
one, to which was attached a long
heavy chain, both ends of which are
fast in the ring. Five inches above the
fastening of one end the chain hac
been cut nearly in two.
The outside of the watch appears to
have been nicely engraved, but on the
side which lay uppermost, the design
cannot be made out, as the action of the
water and sand has made the plate a.
smooth as ice. On the inside of the out.
er case is engraved a name which can.
not be made out, and the date, 1927
Whether this really is an old relic
and marks the scene of an accident OF

FAST BECOMING EXTINCT.
sealing Industry on the Comma n d e I
and Walrus Islands Not What
1t Used to BE.

The secretary of the treasury has
been advised that during the ensuing
month of February the farming out
of the seal hunting on the Commander
and Walrus islands, in the Arctic sea,
will take place at Khabarovsk, in East
Siberia. Russia, in which enterprise
many English companies are said to
be interested. 1t is doubtful, it is said,
whether the proposed disposition of
this crown property will bring the
price it formerly did, in view of the
enormous destruction of seal life dur
ing the past ten years, which has great
ly decreased the catch.
The governor of East Siberia has
reported that in 1896 the number of
seals caught on the Commander is
lands was 54,59i; in 1899, only 10000
were caught; in 1898 the total was
$4,000; in 1898 the number was 2.s25,
and last year only about 1,GOO skins
were secured.
The situation is said to be the same
as regards the catch on Walrus is
land. At the beginning of the nineties
the yearly catch was 4OOO. 1t is now
only about 300. The treasury officials
believe the time is fast approaching
when the fur seal will be almost ex-
tinct in the region referred to.

RICH ORE IN PIXIES PEAK.
Mining Company Well Paid for Bor-
Ing Nine Hundred Feet Into
Mountain,

The first strike of any Importance
ever made on Pixies peak is the one
just discovered in the tunnel of the Oil
Creek Mining company of Cincinnati.
The mountain has been prospected for
years and is supposed by many to be
the starting point of the rich leads
found in Cripple Creek, but surface
work has never disclosed any ore. By
running a tunnel into the very heart
of the mountain, however. the Oil
Creek company has opened three-foot
vein of $50 ore and pockets CARRYING
fabulous values. The tunnel is now in
900 feet under Pixies peak. Work was
begun in March, 1896. At that time
there was no ore in sight, and nothing
but theory to warrant the expendi-
ture of money. George II. Bohrer, ,pres-
ident of the German national bank Of
Cincinnati, is also president of the Oil
Creek Mining company, George Kreis
is secretary and j. r. Pictou is treas
urer.
The utmost secrecy is maintained by
the interested parties.

DIR. Z. d. Salmon, chief of the bureau
OF animal industry of the agricultural
department, reviewed before the in
dustrial commission the work of the de-
partment in controlling contagious dis
eases of animals in the United States

FOOD VERSUS ENERGY
Experiment by w. 0. Atwater at
Wesleyan University.
College Athlete Placed In Respirption
Calorimeter to Determine fhe
Relation of Food 10 Mus
culnr Energy.

Prof. w. 0. Atwater has Just com.
pleted an important experiment in
the respiration calorimeter at Yves.
leyan to determine the relation OF
food to muscular energy. The sub
ject was one of the college athletes,
who was in the experimental cham
ber for nine days and ten nights.
Prof. Atwater. who conducts ex-
periments for the government in con-
nection with work at WESLEYAN. has
not completed his ANALYSIS and cal
culations of his latest experiment,
and will not for several weeks. He
authorizes the following general
statement of the result obtained.
Withholding the name of the student
who submitted to the test:
He was in the respiration cham-
bef nine days and ten nights, after
preliminary test. During eight days
he was engaged in active exercises,
riding bicycle which was attached
to a dynamo for measuring the
amount of muscular work performed.
One object of the experiment was to
find the relation between muscular
activity and the consumption of food
and body material and the transform
alton of energy in the body.
"It was the idea to compare the
efficiency of fats and carbohydrates
for supplying the needs of the body
in time of hard, muscular work. To
this end the diet during four days
contained large quantities of carbo.
hydrates, sugar and starch, which in
the last four days were replaced by
fats in the form of fat meat, butter
and the like. The experiment was
very successful and promises results
of decided interest. Several weeks
will be required for completing the
analysis and calculations"
In addition to these experiments
at Wesleyan similar ones are being
carried on at other colleges. The re.
suits of studies of the diet of the
Harvard crew at New London last
summer are about ready for publica.
ton.
Prof Atwater has long conducted
scientific experiments on the rela.
tion of food to muscular energy. He |
aroused storm of criticism about n |
Tear ago. when he snnonnced that
~ ounces of alcohol could be con. !
iumed daily without injury to the
human system, If taken in small
loses.

DISTRIBUTION OF SEED.
Delayed by the Failure 70 work of
the Filling and Sealing
Machinery.

Considerable delay is being occa-
stoned in the congressional seed dis
tribution by the failure of the filing
and sealing machinery to work as it
was expected to do. The invention is
new one, and not yet in u state of
perfection, but it is thought that the
inventor, who spends his time in the
plant, will be able to have it in good
working order in the next few days.
just now the work of filing, sealing
and! franking the bags is being done
by hand as rapidly as possible, and
some orders are being gotten out for
the localities in which planting first
occurs.
1t is thought by the contractors that
the plant, which is conveniently To-
Gated near the post office, will be in
full working order in the next few days,
and that, even with the present delay
and the extra appropriation, the work
Will be completed much more rapidly
than ever before.
Some fear is entertained by some
congressman lest Secretary Wilson's
test for termination is too high, and
that he is paying too much attention
to the scientific character of the sup
ply, and thus materially retarding the
distribution. The congressman frank
ly confess that it is the quantity and
speed of the distribution for which
they care more than for the quality,
and already they are making uneasy
calls at the plant where the seeds are
being handled and to the seed division
of the agricultural department.
