YIN Staten Island Mr.. Schwab has purchased a fine property
containing a beach, Arbutus lake, and a stretch Of beau
tiul Woodland. Does he intend to erect here a grand
Hrqsaog summer palace? Mol He is going to turn it over to
E9h$A the young people OF New York city for a pleasure ground.
E He is building a steamer which will ply between the
EY grounds and the city and will carry on each trip some
1000 or 5000 happy young folks. On the grounds there

the industries here requiring a large proportion OF skilled labor ac-
counts for this.
The foreignborn element even in New Mexico forms but a
small proportion of the population. The school systems in the terri
tories are the equal Of those in any states in the union. 1t is easier
to obtain a teachers certificate in Illinois or New York than in Ari-

In the culinary arc lamp the carbons
are heated to about 5000 degrees, but
in the new lamp Of DR.. Bang, the
Danish physician, they are kept SO
cool that they can be touched with
the fingers while the lamp is burning.
The cooling is due to the use of hollow
carbons, through which strong our
rent of water is kept passing. The
effect is remarkable, nearly the entire
energy of the electric current being
removed to the light arc between the
two electrodes. while the latter are
consumed so slowly that the usual au-
tomato adjustment is unnecessary.
For physicians use numerous advant
ages are claimed. The cold light kills
bacteria in one-eighteenth Of the time
required by the ordinary arc lamp, the
patients can be placed much nearer
the light than hitherto, and metallic
electrodes-silver, iron, etc. can be
employed without risk Of melting.
The lamp being small and handy and
consuming little electricity, it is ex-
pected to prove specially useful in
other fields.

VIEWS OF A RAILROAD MAN.

Paul Morton, vice-president Of the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Rail
way, in recent address before one of
the departments Of the University of
Chicago, discussing railway rates, ar
gued for pooling privileges. The prohi
bition of pooling under the Interstate
Commerce law, Mr.. Morton said, "has
resulted in a continuation of preferen-
tial rates, mostly of secret nature,
which are menace to justice and fair
play, and which ought to be obliterat-
ed" He thought that one of three con-
tingencies faces the railways:
"G.) The legalization Of pooling,
whereby the railroads may make en-
forcible contracts between themselves
for division of the business based on
reasonable rates or,
"(2.) The unification of ownership,
which, in the absence of the first propo-
sition, is making rapid strides; or,
"(3.) The taking over of the rail-
roads by the government to own and
operate them as is done in Germany and
some other European countries.
II have always been an advocate of
legalized pooling, because I believe it
will go long way toward insuring
maintenance Of tariffs and thereby pre-
vent favoritism and inside rates to
large shippers and great cities. I be-
lieve that the very foundation Of the
state itself is threatened by any long
continued discrimination against the
small shipper and the small town." In
arguing for pooling, Mr.. Morton said:
81 can see no good reason why Congress
should not legalize pooling, as long as
rates are reasonable. Rates can become
unreasonable, and there is as much to
fear from their being unreasonably low
as unreasonably high. They can be so
low as to be unremunerative ; thereby

The whitening of hair, so familiar
to us, has not been easy to explain.
In recent study of the subject, E.
Metchnikoff has found that pigment
atrophy of the hair is due to action Of
phagocytes, or wllite blood corpuscles,
which absorb the pigment and transfer
it elsewhere. In whitening hair and
it's roots the phagocytes filled with
pigment are numerous, while they
gradually disappear as the process
progresses, and are almost complete
ly absent in perfectly white hair.
This discovery of the part played by
phagocytes shows, for instance, that
the sudden turning white of hair in
a single night, or in few days, is
result Of increased activity set up
in the phagocytes Of the hair.
To utilize the vast energy of the
science. The late Prof. G. F. Fitz-
Gerald supposed that the magnetic
field of charged condenser, with
plates edgewise to the motion through
the ether, might be traced to the
earh's motion, and an experiment has
been made by DR.. F. T. Troutman, F.
r. S., to settle this point. The re-
suits have been negative. 1t is now
pointed out that if the charging bat
terry is responsible for the energy of
the magnetic field, there are reasons
for believing that the earth's motion
tends to turn charged condenser at
right angles to itself, and test is
proposed with delicately suspended
condenser charged to high voltage.
If the expected result is obtained,
continuous rotation will be possible
from the power of the earth.

up before Justice Burns last Sat
urday morning. The court room
was crowded with sensation seek
ers and the morbidly curious. sew
eral women being the number.
Mr.. Heiner acted as his own at
torney and made a statement to
the court in which he, said that
although his love for Mrs. Spencer
was not sanctioned by law it was
higher and holier than that often
found in the marriage state. The
complaining witness. he said, was
actuated by motives OF revenge, and
not through any desire TO see JUS
tice done. He had no excuse
to offer in extenustIon OF his un-
holy alliance that could be consid
cred in court OF justice, and en-
tered plea OF guilty to the charge.
He asked the court to be as lenient
as possible in passing sentence.
Especially with Mrs. Spencer, and
lif possible that he be allowed to
bear the entire burden OF guilt
Mrs. Spencer also entered plea
OF guilty but made no statement
Mrs Heiner, the complaining wit
ness, went upon the witness stand
Iaad testified that she was married
to Heiner in Texas in 1895, and

lived forever happy together until
about one year ago. when he be-

and costs, the fine and costs in the
latter case to be suspended for
ninety days. Both returned to
the Jail, Mrs. Spencer saying that
she believed that would be the
safest place for her as long as Mrs.
Heiuer remained in town.
1t is said that Mrs. Spencer is
well known in Denver and other
tColorado cities, and that during
the past year she and Heiner have
received all kinds OF newspaper
notoriety and seem to enjoy il.
Heiner first met Mrs. Spencer at
Ouray and eloped with her from
that place. He was traced to- Vic.
tor, Denver and other Colorado
cities by his wife. and once or
twice arrested. He promised to
return to his wife. and induced her
to go east. After she went away

skipped, and not until two weeks
ago did his wife succeed in locat-
