Twenty Three Recaptured.

New York, Nov. 3.-Two hundred
and fifty boys, inmates of the New
York Juvenile asylum. made a con-
certed break for freedom yesterday.
The plot was devised several weeks
ago. Fifty of the boys succeeded in
escaping, but 23 of them were re.
captured after two hours. Those at
large range in age from ten to 16
years.
Nothing will be done to punish the
boys" said the superintendent of the
asylum last night. "They were most
" destitute, committed for their own
welfare. If they were vicious they
would have been sent to the reforma.
tory. I suppose they wanted to take
advantage of the fine weather and
get out for a rum"

other day.

neer.
Mr.. Spencer proved that his airship
is dirigible by lodging the express
train, ramming a tree, and ending his
26-mile voyage in its branches. He
was uninjured.
Spencer, who recently made q sue.
cessful trip over London. rose to-day
from Blackpool, but, finding the north
west breeze too strong to make head
way against it, he proceeded in
southwesterly direction and landed in
the open country.
There was a good breeze when he
assembled. When he was l 900 feet high
he made several evolutions against
the wind and finally sailed off in the
same direction the wind was blowing.
When he was descending he found
he was over a railroad, with his trail
ing rope dangling among the tele-
graph lines along the line. His dia-
logue with the engineer followed.

Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 3.-The recep-
ton which President Roosevelt will
receive in Memphis when he comes
here on November 20 in order to be
present at the festivities in honor
Of the return of Gen. Luke W. Wright
from the Philippines promises to be
of doubtful quality.

to refrain from attending banquet
with a man who has dined with Book
er 7. Washington, a negro, and q
number of prominent citizens have
announced that they will not go.
The reception committee is at loss
to know how to proceed. The an
nouncement that the president will
visit Washington at Tuskegee, Ala,
before coming here has made mat
ers worse, and the conditions are
critical. Local negroes are outlining
o programme for the entertainment
of the president while he is here.

were consulted in regard to the mat

Said to Have Been Evolved
from q hone.

A rough opal that was once part OF
tho backbone Of prehistoric animal
and is now one of the most remarkable
specimens of its kind in the world, has
recently been found In Australia, re-
ports the New York Times. The stone,
which is in the rough, is remarkable
for its size alone, which is 2A by 2h
inches. 1t weighs 1850 karats. From
small piece which has been Clipped
from one of the edges it appears to be
stone of wonderful beauty, rich color
and fire.
1t is not, however, on these consider
atoms that its claim to distinction ia
based, but upon the fact that it is an
opalized fossil. A glance at it will con.
vince even the lay mind that it is q
petritied vertebra of some animal. The
facets for the heads of the ribs are
found to be perfect. BY careful ex.
animation under a strong magnifying
glass it is possible in places to discover
in the porosjty of the stone even the
cell tissue of the bone.
This remarkable specimen, which
thus is of scientific as well as CONNER.
cial value, was probably formed by
silica operating upon the bone. 1t is
well known that opal is formed by the
deterioration of the rock in which it
is found, the silica of which after first
having been dissolved by superheated
water has greatly cooled in assures of
the rock. BY what chance this vertebra
came in contact with this silica bearing
water is matter of conjecture.
1t was found by a man in Australia
who stumbled over it accidentally. Its
brilliancy and peculiar shape attracted
his attention, and after careful ex-
animation he came to the conclusion
that it was an opal. He took it to a
lapidary and his suspicious were con-
frmed.
1t is now the bone of contention be.
tween the scientific and the CONNER.
cial world. The scientists want il bad
y, but they do not want to pay for it
what the stone is worth commercially.
and the persons who own it won't part
with it, even for scientific purposes,
unless they receive its full commercial
value.
1t is now locked in the safe of a
Maiden Lane jeweler awaiting the, out
come of the wrangle.
DIR. o. p. Hay, assistant curator to |
the Metropolitan Museum of Natural
History, after q careful examination
OF the vertebra, pronounces it undoubt-
eddy that Of a marine animal, of the
family of Pleiosaurs, and believes from
its shape that it formed part of the
Clmolisaurs, an animal which attained
a length of possibly 40 feet. fossils of
which are now being found frequently
in Australia.

it. Capt. White did not share in this
public discussion of the United States
action, which was confined to the
juniors.
During the bombardment the Mon

the forts. Capt. White would like to
have gone into action then, but could
not do SO because his vessel was
crowded with noncombatants.

Prussia and Austria for supremacy II
Germany broke out An offensive an,
defensive alliance with Prussia was fol
