THE WILLY POLAR BEAR.
Hides His Nose When Tracking Prey
 Because It Is Black.

From the London Spectator.
 A polar bear would not have a chance
 in stalking seals if it were of darker color. The only black spot about it Is the tip of its nose The sailors who first landed on various unknown arctic shores and bays stated that the bears used to take them for seals and begin to stalk them at a considerable distance, lying down flat on their bellies in the attitude in which the well-known photograph of MT. Gambler Bolton shows the old polar bear at the zoo and wriggling along in that position until they came to an ice hummock. when they would get up peer over to see if the seals were alarmed, and wriggle on again.
 The sailors added that they could al- ways see the black nose when the bear got near, but vowed that the bear put his paw over his muzzle to hide fti The Arctic foxes the blue" hare, the ptar- migan, ryper and ermine all undergo the seasonal change to white by an identi- cal process The hair or feathers, as the case may be, lose color and turn pure white by what may almost be described as an instantaneous process. In the foxes and birds the white comes in patches, but the speed of the color change is re- markable. There are many stories of peo- pie whose hair was turned white from shock fin a single night Judging by the birds and foxes these stories must be true. No one ever sees the process of fading going on. The feather or patch of fur which was brown or smoky gray suddenly whitens. Yet no one has actual ly seen the color going. The explanation usually given Is that it takes place by night. There seems no half way tint between the white and the original color.

which illuminate the room in one mass instead of dissipating the light, as it were, over several separate windows It was this method of lighting as applied to Dutch rooms which was the secret of the wonderful effects of Rembrandt in light and shade. After the prince and his suite have been presented to Mrs. Gardner by the German consul of Boston, MT. Reincke, the party and the guests will proceed to the music room, where musi- cal entertainment will be given.
 The prince will hear for the first time the Boston Symphony orchestra. The prince and his suite will listen to the strains of some of the leading stars of grand opera.
 The music" room, in which this enter tainment will be held, resembles a small symphony hall in design, with square level auditorium floor about 40xS0 feet in area, stage at the south end, 20 feet deep, and gallery over the north end 30 feet deep.
 It takes up one end of the house. in area and the two lower stories of 1t in height. This room is far from being com pleted and it is in this part of the palace that the work will be rushed through with electric speed.

PRINCE HENRY AND MRS. "JAck"
Boston's Society Leader Will Enter. tain Him In Her Venetian Palace,
From the Boston Post.

From the Boston Post.
 To Mrs. Jack Gardner has fallen the greatest social honor ever enjoyed by a Boston woman.
 She will have as her personal guest Prince Henry of Prussia during his com ing visit to Boston.
 An additional corps of workmen will be set to work immediately to rush the com pletion of the Venetian palace which Mrs Jack" is having built prior to the visit of Prince Henry.
 The reception to him will take place in the Dutch room, which is one of the gems of the palace in the magnificance of its appointments. The most striking feature of the room is the red-tied floor, the tiles being polished so as to give the impress sion of long use, each tile being rounded on the edges and worn down in the cen ter. This suggestion is heighte ened by the cement used for the interstices which has the look of being tramped in by many feet
 The floor gives a broken, changing light effect that is never found on a board or even a stone floor, and the effect Is alto gether charming. A massive stone fire place nearly fills the east end of the room, there being only room enough at the arcade end of the wall for a narrow door. and at the other for a recessed seat
 The furniture represents a rare collec- tion of Dutch household furniture in chairs, tables, etc, such as were used in medieval times. The walls and the tables are draped in old dark green hangines The ceiling is more than copy of an old Dutch ceiling. The collector has secured the entire ceiling of some Dutch banquet room, all in hewn wood and now darkened with age and many years of smoke.
 The room is lighted from the outside by a group of five high arched windows

To Control Wireless Telegraph.

Washington Telegram to the Chicago
 Tribune.
 One of the early steps which will have to be taken by this government is the establishment of restrictions governing communication by wireless telegraphy. This would be absolutely necessary from the strategic standpoint but already the governments abroad are taking that fea- ture of the situation into consideration. Of course at sea in time of war wire less telegraph messages between ships of the same squadron will be receivable by the ships of a foe, and secret com munication can only be maintained by means of code
 A claim made by Marconi that a cer- tain tuning of his instruments has re- moved the possibility of interference is not, say the experts, fully sustained.
 It will not be possible. of course. to regulate such appropriation of messages at sea, but 1t will be absolutely neces sary and entirely feasible to control tn wireless telegraph operations on land, and when the matter is nearer complete. development than at present this gov. ernment will have to enact Legislation in regard to wireless telegraphy on 1ands nohhiT Rloug t1fe ooask
