THE SECRET OF LIFE.
Carnegie Offers Scientists Big Fund
to Discover Secret.
Apparatus of the Most Delicate Kind
TO be Provided In the Effort
to Learn Origin of
Living Things.

Andrew Carnegie will use part of
his great wealth to try to wrest from
nature her secret of secrets-the orig
in, cause and principle of life.
Out of the SlO,00O,000 given by Mr..
Carnegie 10 found the Carnegie insti'
tuition at Washington Ito encourage
investigation, research and discovery
a large sum has been set aside for the
construction, equipment and endow-
ment of the finest Observation-Disclosures
les in the world.
Several Chicago scientists who have
made international regulations will
find private laboratories and quarters
provided for them, embracing every
facility for working at the problem
of artificial reproduction of proto-
plasm.
The marine biological laboratory at
Woods Hole. Mass, has been chosen as
the foundation for the new institution.
The group of scientists, who for sew
eral years have labored to establish
an independent laboratory for original
investigation at Woods Hole, have in
that time produced world startling
results.
1t was there that DR.. Jacques Loeb,
of the University of Chicago, first
found that unfertilized sea urchin
eggs could be developed by chemical
\ Moods ln1n al
that DIR. Albert p Matthews, also of
the University of Chicago, performed
the experiments that convinced him
that the phelNmena of life were elec.
trieal.
Scientists from nearly every uniyer-
sity in America have begun to turn
to Woods Hole as the most promising
of biological centers. They sought in
vain for endowment, but the trustees
of the Carnegie institution have come
to their assistance. --
The laboratories, which are to be
built on the rocks facing the Elizabeth
islands, are to contain everything that
the scientists can wish to aid them
The most delicate of electrical appar
atus will be supplied. The department
of physiological chemistry will be es
pecially well provided for. Each OF
the Investigators will have a private
laboratory for his work, and each will
be able to draw on the endowment
fund to carry on his work.
Scholarships will be provided to en-
able promising students to carry OF
their work there. DR.. Whitman, hea,
of the biological department of tn,
University of Chicago, will remain a
the head of the Woods Hole school.

CROSS OCEAN in SMALL BOAT.
Capt. Newman and Son Succeed In
Reaching Falmouth From New
York City.


Capt. Newman and his son Edward
have arrived at Falmouth, England,
in the 3S-foot kerosene launch, Abiel
Abbott Low, in which they sailed from
New York. In an interview Capt.
Newman said:
The launch has proved herself a
noble boat, but we experienced awful
times since we left New York. Several
times, in terrible gales, we nearly lost
our drag anchor, owing to the gear
chatting away. We voyaged BLOB miles.
We had great trouble with the kero-
sene, because the tanks which held it
broke and the oil flooded the cabin.

The voyagers rarely used the sail
on the launch. Capt. Newman lost so
pounds in weight on the trip, but his
