HUMAN ILLS DUE TO SOAP.
Writer In London Times Starts an
Interesting DiscussiOn-Vtews
of the Specialists.

A short letter printed in the London
Times stands out among such all-ab-
sorbing topics as the possibilities Of
war in the near or far east, the fiscal
question and other matters of grave in
terests. The writer of this letter refers
to the announcement that a royal COM
mission is about to be appointed to in
vestigate the physical deterioration Of
the English people.
He proceeds, says the New York Sun,
to declare the conviction that this
deterioration is due to the excessive use
OF soap, which removes the natural oil
given by the Almighty to protect the
body, and thus exposes It to rbeuma-
tism, chills, disease and dirt
The writer boasts that he has not
used soap for 80 years, while all the
time he was doing the hardest kind Of
work at sea, and yet he never had a
twinge of rheumatism or any other all
ment.
The appearance of this letter was the
signal for general press investigation
into the philosophy of soap. Physicians,
dermatologists, complexion specialists
and even recruiting sergeants have been
interviewed on the subject, with the re-
suit that soap CONS forth victorious
and is declared to be an absolute neces-
sity of life under modern conditions.
The Lancet admits that soap is rot
calculated to make the skin supple, be-
cause it removes the natural oil, Put
cold cream is a remedy for this.
Nevertheless, said the Lancet, mot
few people manage to maintain per-
sonal cleanliness without the use of soap
at ALL"

ARE METALS "ALIVE?"
Experiments Show Them to BE Sensi-
tive to Irritation Just as
Animal Nerves Are.

by an ingenious device a visible
and ocular demonstration can be given
of the fact that a nerve has the power
to convey a message of sensitiveness
If at any intervening part of the nerve
a galvanometer be attached, and the
end of the nerve be pinched or other
wise irritated, then Immediately the
needle of the galvanometer will be de-
fiected-thus showing that the irrita-
ton Of the nerve causes a current like
that Of electricity to be sent along It,
1t is upon this fact (now well known
to scientists) that Prof Bose bases his
Investigations.
He starts as explained by A. Sa-
rath Kumar Ghosh, in an article on
Life in Metals" which he contributes
to Pearson's, from that known fact
namely, that a galvanometer can re-
veal the sensitiveness of animal mat
ter to external irritation-and makes
a series OF experiments on bars OF diff
ferent metals, to ascertain If they,
also, will respond to similar irritation,
and IL that response can be made Wis
IDLY manifest in like manner by means
of the galvanometer. The results he
obtains are startling.
THE first result Is that all metals
show visible signs of sensitiveness un-
der irritation, such as twisting or tap
ping, exactly in the same manner as
animal muscles and nerves do--the
greater the irritation, the greater the
visible signs of sensitiveness. Nay,
more; every single popularity in the
irritability of animal matter is exact
ly reproduced in the case Of metal"

Lewis and Clark Fair.

The Lewis and Clark fair, planned
to be held in Portland, Ore, in the
summer of 1905, is to commemorate
the centennial of the crossing of the
continent by the explorers whom JEFF
ferson induced to undertake the diff
cult task soon after the completion of
his bargain for the Louisiana terri
tory. They went up the Missouri
river, crossed the Rocky mountains
and followed down the course of the
Columbia river to the Pacific.

The Useful Alligator.

The value of alligators in the economy
OF nature was recently demonstrated in
Florida. Hunters having decimated
the alligators, the muskrats on which
the saurians feed began to multiply.
They honeycombed with holes the river
levees. These holes caused leakage, the
leakage caused breaks in the banks and
great destruction of property resulted.
California has no alligators, but many
cousins of the muskrat. Hitherto they
have been exceedingly troublesome to
the farmers along the Sacramento. A
remedy for these burrowing rodents is
now announced-oil. 1t not only drives
away the gophers and squirrels, but.
according to Stockton experimenters, re-
tards the washing away Of the banks
by water and the loss of the loose earth
at the top by high winds. The oil is
applied hot from barge In the river,
and contracts have been let for extern
sive oiling.

BACK TO THEIR LAVA BEDS.

The last gallant remnant of the
are soon to depart for their homes in
the lava beds of the state of Washing
ton, says the Baxter Springs News.
For nearly 80 years they have resided
on their little reservation in Indian
Territory about ten miles south Of
Baxter Springs.
This tribe was at one time the
bravest Of the brave, and made the
most heroic stand for their liberty
ever made by any tribe or nation.
With small body of chosen warriors
they stood off, or held at bay the
entire army of the United States for
many weeks. They killed Gen. Candy.
commanding the United States forces,
and killed and wounded more soldiers
than there were members Of their
tribe. They were finally conquered,
and after hanging Capt. Jack, their
head chief, and four others, the bal
ance of the tribe was coralled on the
lands in the territory. Every member
was allowed 40 acres of poor land, and
they we're informed this was all they
could expect, or, in other words, they
must root hog or die" All of the
old historic members of the tribe are
dead, except Princess Mary. the sister
of Capt. Jack, and old Lu-ke-el-tu, now
los years old, the bow and arrow
maker of the tribe. Capt. Jack, Steam
boat Frank and Scar Faced Charlie,
Setback Nasty Jim, and all the old
landmarks of the tribe have gone to
the happy hunting grounds. Their
bones repose in a strange land, far
from their native rocks and hills,
where their forefathers are buried.
