GIFT OF DEAD INDIAN.
GrewsOme Relic Comes from Interior
of Alaska to the bureau OF
American EthnOIOGy.

Mai. John w Powell, director of the
bureau of American ethnology, has just
received the most unusual Christmas
present of any person in the United
States, if not in the world. It is moth
ing more or less than dead Indian,
and not fresh dead Indian either. 1t
is reported that he died some 70 years
before being brought to civilization,
which only happened about week ago.
The gift is neatly put up in birch
wood basket, not much bigger than a
country pumpkin. and this Basket in
turn is secured in sealskin sack of the
t.rrc ase5 ~ he tlaskG I'M -
unique present was obtaineu ~ an
agent Of the government who collects
Indian relics for the department OF
ethnology. and was secured after great
difficulty, as to come into the posses
sion of dead Indian is great crime
among the Indians.
The story accom- panying the relic is
as interesting as is the specimen. An
Indian of one of the tribes of the in
terror of Alaska was taken into the
commence OF the cOliectOr ana was
bribed to rob the ancient funeral bier
for the sum of $40. After getting both
the money and the body the willy red
man undertook not only to retain the
relic but tell on the would-be owner
unless more money was Forthcoming.
A woman's smile finally beguiled him
into giving up the idea of turning him
Cd self into walking morgue. and the
prize was secured. AS a safe trans
portation was not provided the agent.
a woman. slept in her lonely miners
hut with the dead Indian under her
bed for period of three years.
This is said to be the only Indian relic
of this kind in the great collection and
is almost beyond money value

REVIVED AFTER CENTURIES
Lobster Discovered in n Stratum
AntedafinS tEe Glacial
Period

A most remarkable story of sus-
pended animation comes from Easton.
where John III. X. Shannahan is bor-
ing wells for the Eastern Water COM
pany. From depth of 112 feet ball
OF clay was brought to the surface.
which, when exposed to the sun.
showed signs of life, and proved to be
a live and somewhat ferocious lob
ster. its legs and claws gradually un-
coiling. This curious live specimen
is now in the Pennsylvania university
museum, where it was sent bv Col.
Charles A. Chipley. Several sharks
teeth were dug up at the same time,
and Mr.. Shannahan has unearthed
many strange things from the PENN
-suia which is of alluvial formation.
While such men as Prof w. X.
Brooks. of Johns Hopkins, have hest
tated as yet to express an opinion as
to this discovery, the stratum in
which it was found having been the
sea floor before the glacial period, it
is surmised that this lobster was
caught mapping with thousands of
others when the glaciers swept down
and deposited the bed of rock. which
must now be drilled through to get
artesian water. This having taken
place 100000 years ago, according to
biologists, it would mean that the
lobster has been practically dead all
these years. 1t is possible that Mr..
Shannahan may find other speci-
mems.

SPEED ON THE OCEAN
Designer of Torpedo Boats Predicts
Revolution in Ocean Travel.
Convinced That Boats Can Be Built
That Will Cross Atlantic Inside
of Three Days-His Torpedo
Boat DestrOyers.

Sixty miles an hour is the unprece-
.dented speed expected of new tor
pedo boat destroyer, plans for which
have been submitted to the authorl-
ties at Washington. The designer is
Oscar p. Ostergren, noted Swedish
inventor, who also designed the tor
pedo boat destroyer Bailey and the
Eli. the fastest vessel ever construct
ed. The latter has speed of AZ KNOTS
an hour.
Mr.. Ostergren said he was conf
dent that he could build boat that
would make 60 knots, and probably
more.
81 have just completed the plans for
the construction of such VESSEL he
said st may seem almost lmpossl-
BILE, and l am convinced by practical
tests which have applied that l can
readily attain such speed for my
boat.
'sThis new boat will be cigar-shaped,
long and narrow, so as to encounter
the least possible resistance while
passing through the water. Matters
of displacement, bulk, ETC., will also
receive special attention. Nickel
steel will be the principal material,
both for the vessel proper and for the
machinery.
"The machinery will consist of four
quadruple expansion engines, fitted
with specially designed appliances of
my own invention. One remarkable
feature will consist of finlike appli-
ances fitted to the sides of the YES
sell The object of these fins is to
keep the boat on an even keel while
attaining high speed.
81 am firmly convinced that boats
built upon my plans will ultimately
give the public the long-hoped-for
transatlantic steamships which will
cross the ocean inside of three days"
