of assistant state superintendent of
public instruction under Grace Espey
Patton. She has since been a reporter
on the Chicago Tribune, and has met
with success in her newspaper work
The story is unique, in that it deals
with quite unconventional lives. and it
is so well told that, in spite of the sim
plicity of the plot, it holds the interest
to the last. 1t is the story of the life
OF a religious community in one of the
states of the middle west. This little
community, with its narrow views and
religious fanaticism, is sadly disturbed
by the intrusion Of man of the world.

PEARLS BY INOCUL4TION.
Prof. Dubois Says lie Can Get Ono OF More
Pearls From Every Ten Oysters.
Special Gable Despatch TO THE S

Special Cable DfSpllch 10 IIE SUN
PARIS, Nov. 7.-Prof. Dubois has reported
the results of pearl farming on scientific
lines to the Acade ME des Sciences. He
transplanted a colony of pearl oysters
from the coast OF Tunis to Talnaris-sur-
Mer near Toulon. The oysters, which
we're identical with those of Ceylon, presum-
ably reached the Mediterranean by way
of the Suez Canal. About one pearl was
found in every 200 Tunisian oysters.
Prof Dubois's researches endorse the
theory that the pearl disease of the shell
is due to the accreton OF mother Of pearl
under the action of a parasite. He dis
covered that the disease could be COM
municated to other oysters of the same
genus living under similar conditions.
On this basis he founGs a theory that the in
oculation Of mother of pearl with serum dis
titled from the parasite will make it possible
to produce pearls scientifically. He says
he has produced one or more pearls from
every ten oysters. Pearl merchants de-
clare that these pearls, like the precious
stones produced by unnatural methods,
are much too srnnll to be Of value.

SENATOR CLARK WINS.
Decision in His Favor in tho Extension
Lumber Tracts Litigation.

HELENA, Mont, Nov. 7.-Senator w. A.
Clark got the decision in the timber land
cases brought against him and others by
the Federal Government. The cases in
volved eighty-two tracts Of timber land
and attracted much attention.
1t is alleged in the suit brought by the
Federal Government that r. NJ. Cobb
induced several persons to take up timber
lands under the Homestead act and after
ward to transfer them to Cobban, who in
turn sold them to Mr.. Clark. Cobban was
charged with subornation OF perjury, and
100 entry men and entry women were
charged with perjury directly and indicted.
The Washington officials sent special
agent and attorney to Montana to investi-
gate the charges and prosecute the cases.
Judge Hiram Knowles of the Federal Court
appointed Judge Henry n. Blake to take
the testimony. The evidence was VOL
luminous, covering thousands of pages.
To-day in Butte Judge knowles decided
the matter in favor Of Senator Clark. The
Court held that there had not been q, fi
cient evidence to establish fraud and that
the charge that the entrynen and entry
women had taken up the lands with the
purpose OF defrauding the Government
was not substantated.

ported him while he tremblingly fired two
shots from the revolver he had been unable
to draw at his three assailants. She led
several men and pursued the trio. Then

GREAT TUNNEL IN THE ALPS.
Problem Of Cooling the Air in tho Simplon
Tube Is Solved.

Special Gable Dispatch 20 TIE SUN.
LONDON, Nov. 7.-Recent dispatches
have suggested the probability that work
upon the Simplon tunnel in the Alps would
be abandoned because the hot springs en-
countered made the heat SO great that it
could not be borne. The difficulties, how
ever, have been solved
For distance OF six and a quarter miles
the mountain has been penetrated on the
north and for four and half miles on the
south side, leaving one and half miles to
complete it. A juncture will be effected
in May or June Of next year with a max
imum Of error in direction Of seven or
eight inches.
Owing to the great height Of the noun
tains above the tunnel. the pressure is
great. and the temperature Of the rocks
and springs is oorrespopdingly high. The
greatest heat encountered was 1873 F. 1t
ts now 12o. This temperature. with water
falling upon the workmen. would injure
them, but this heat has been reduced by
dfluting the air with cold from hydraulic
mains. To cool the air, large volume
Of fresh air. the temperature of which has
been reduced by means of high pressure
water spray, is sent up to the working
face Of the tunnel, where it is perfectly cool
and fresh in contrast with the foulness
and oppressiveness usual in other tunnels
There Ia no sickness among the workmen.

CHINA,S APPEAL FOR HELP.
American. Japanese and British Ministers
Approached.
Special cobk Despatch to THE SUN.

Special Cable Despatch to THE SUN.
PKkIN, Nov. Tt is reported that the
Throne has summoned Tsen Chi, the Tartar
General Of Mukden, to come to Pekin for
an audience. This action is the outcome
OF the Generalization Of the Chinese Gov
ernment caused by the proceedings Of the
Russians in Manchuria. The Chinese are
beginning to recognize the fact that it is
not feasible to send high official to Muk-
den. as was at first proposed, to negotiate
with the Russian force Of occupation.
Prince Ching, the head OF the Foreign
Office, has already discussed with the
American, English and Japanese Ministers
here the prospect of mediation by these
Powers in the Manchurian affair. The
three Ministers assented to a proposition
made by Prince Ching that they should
ask the aid Of their Governments. 1t cannot
be stated that the supplication from the
Throne was handed to the Ministers, but
the inability OF the Government and Of
Prince Ching in the present crisis Is COM
plete.
The summons to Tsen Chi to come here
is regarded as futile, as he is completely
under control of the Russians. They need
his services badly. Without his aid they
would be unable to administer the affairs
OF Mukden, which is run under complicated
system resembling government Of eighteen
provinces by five boards. 1t is understood
that Russia has an agreement with China
whereby Tsen Chi will remain as Tartar
General for Ave years. This will enable
the Russians to have the undisturbed adj
mnistration Of the province until they
have been thoroughly established there.
