dictate is to have erected at the site Of
the springs a hotel for the accommo-
dation of rheumatic and diabetic
guests. a hotel, which would surely be
visited, they say. by all the afflicted
peoples who visit the volcano.
Owing to the fact that there is little
sulphur in the water, there is no claim
that there is at any point any direct
connection with the volcano, but it IS
thought that the heat, which causes
the blending of the constituent parts Of
the water, is derived from the intense
heat of the volcano. which is some five
miles away. in a direct line, from the
point at which the opening is found. It
is a. theory that the water comes into
the broken strata at the summit of the
mountain. and drops down close to the
living volcano, where it is heated and
the salts which are held in the rocks
and feeding streams through which the
main one is fed, are boiled into the
main stream. Then striking a cave in
the lava the water flows through this
to the sea. On the way there is believ-
ed to have been a break in the forma-
ton and over this the water flows.

Carriage clocks, besides hardly being

Hence the automobile clock.

To Save the Buffalo Herds.

According to Forest and Stream,
there is a herd of buffaloes of about
tweniy-six now on Antelope Island in
the Great Salt Lake. The owner of
this bunch, Mr.. Dooly, is apparently
willing to part with his buffaloes and
the island to the Government, to es-
tablsh there a national buffalo reserv-
alton, and the subject certainly de-
serves consideration by the authorities.
The island is described as about
twenty miles long, three to five miles
wide, and with excellent water supply.
The buffaloes are said to be in good
condition, and to maintain themselves
during both summer and winter. Mr..
Dooly's herd is slowly increasing, and
he has very wisely arranged to make
some exchanges of stock with the
National Geological Park, and thus to
infuse fresh blood into his herd. Such
exchanges of blood between different
buffalo owners are of the utmost inn
portance, for it Is the only way that
the various small herds can be kept
from detcriorating and finally running
out.
1t has been suggested that IL the
Government should see fit to secure
Antelope Island and Mr.. Dooly's buf-
faloes as beginning of a national
park in Utah, there is room also on the
island for other wild animals.

The Russian reigning house has, 1t is
said, greater wealth than that of any
other royal family in the world. In
the Rev. II. N. Hutchinson's Living
Rulers of Mankind" it is said that the
minimum revenue the Gar derives
from the crown and State domains in
estimated at $7,5000O0 a year. More
than forty members of the imperial
family not in the direct line Of sue
tates set aside for that purpose by the
Emperor Paul L. To these estates Is
given the name of the imperial appan-
ages; they cover an area of 100000
acres, larger than Scotland, and the
total income derived from them Is $10,-
100000. Before the emancipation of
the serfs 100000 peasants were at
tached to these vast estates, and were
in sense the property of their owners.
Another item of the vast wealth of
the imperial family, we are further
told, is the quantity of jewels its mem
bers possess
1.-THE Russians love gems. Serfs have
toiled to fashion these wondrous jew
els; Emirs and Shahs, the vassals Of
the Gar, have laid them at his feet.
The English Ambassadors daughter
said, laughing. that when Alexander
III. presented the various Grand Ouch
esses, ladies of the Imperial Family,
with most costly jewels on the occasion
of his coronation they thought nothing
of the gifts, but tossed them carelessly
in drawer To ladies so plentifully
supplied with pearls and diamonds a
fresh necklace or tiara was thing of
small account.

a new disease just discovered by q
French doctor might be entitled "ex-
aminitis," says the New York Herald.
He has found that an examination
always reduces the weight Of candi-
dates. Hc took 240 pupils and weighed
them before and after examination,
and in every case there was a loss of
weight, in some cases as much as a
pound and half.
The stiffer the examination the
greater the loss of weight.
This is n proof that a few hours
strain in the examining rooms brings
about serious arrangement of the
nervous system, which he considered
in the eminently unhealthy is likely to
do permanent harm.

The Telegraph Plant of India.

The telegraph plant of India fur.
nishes an interesting illustration of
how plants avail themselves of various
means of self-preseryation. This plant
must have light on every part of its
leaves, and its device for securing it is
ingenious, if the word may be allowed.
The leaf is composed of three leaflets,
the largest of which holds itself erect
during the day and turns sharply down
at night. The two smaller leaflets
move constantly, day and night, de.
scribing complete circles, with pecu
liar jerking motion like that of the
secondhand of a watch. Thus every
part of the leaf is brought under the
full action of the sunlight.

Solomon's Temple.

The Neues Wiener Tagblatt states
that DR.. Sellim, professor of evan
gelical theology at the University of
Vienna, who is exploring in Palestine
on behalf of the Imperial Academy
of Sciences, has discovered the walls
and gateway of an ancient temple of
Solomon in the neighborhood of Jano-
hah. DR.. Sellim has drawn up an ac-
curate plan of his discovery, which Is
Of very great importance to archae-
ologists.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says that what Pro.
fessor Sellim has discovered is the
fortress of King Solomon mentioned
In the Bible. The fort has been en-
tirely destroyed and plundered, yet
it was possible for the explorer to
make an exact plan of it. Professor
Sellim had previously discovered a
Canaanitish fortress, built before the
conquest of Palestine by the Jews,
and also many other pre-Israelitish
antiquities.

Experiments by the Government
have shown that no matter what the
process of cooking, meat loses great
deal of its bulk, owing to the evapora-
ton of the water, which constitutes
large part of all flesh This loss is
greater in small pieces than in the
larger ones. In lean piece of beef
weighing from one to one and three
quarters of pound, the loss of weight
was 45.G per cent, while in a piece
weighing from five to five and three
quarter pounds the loss was only 1913

nearly so great however, as that Of

The substitution of crude oil for soft
coal as a fuel for both stationary and
locomotive engines is steadily grow
ing. If the cost of oil can be mate
rially reduced the use of it will increase
even more rapidly. Most of the fuel
oils now come from the new fields in
Texas and California, and the great
drawback to their general use is the
lack of facilities for regular and clean
delivery. The oil producers say that if
there were q line of tank steamers
they could deliver oil in New York at
thirty cents a barrel. and that would
be equivalent to supply of coal at
onethird the normal price. Oil has
many advantages over coal-it makes
steam more quickly. keeps the press

In the cost of handling too, it has the
advantage, for one fireman using oil
