FAIR GROUNDS TOO SMALL

Although covering twice the area
of the Columbian exposition the
worlds fair grounds at st. Louis
are being found too small by one
half to comply with the application
for exhibit space. Instead of
cutting down their space as request
ed foreign governments are increas-
ing their demands and the fair
management is in a dilemma.
Through a diplomatic maneuver
Japan has secured more space than
any European government. France
wants 10000 square feet for au-

BACTERIA FOR LIGHTING.

The attention of the medical
world has just been drawn to the
bacterial lamp devised by Hans
Molisch, of Prague, Germany,
because of its probable usefulness
in surgery. 1t is a flask shaped
glass filed with gelatin into which
a spoonful of the bacteria culture
known as micrococcus phosphores-
cence Is placed. This organism
grows rapidly and emits a pale
blue light for two or three weeks.
Little or no heat is developed.

A GREwsoME BRIDGE.

One of the most curious bridges
ever built was that built by the
British troops in China. Finding
their progress barred by a flooded
river, a timber party was formed,
but found nothing to cut down or
borrow suitable for a bridge. AT
last a huge store of collins was
located in the village, and with
these the soldiers built their bidge
and crossed alive over the recepta-
cles of the dead.

Details of the Horror.

London, May 2S.-The foreign office
here today received some details from the
British consul at Erzerum regarding the
recent earthquake at Melazghard, accord
ing to which a strong shock lasting thir
ty seconds was felt on the morning OF
April % throughout the entire district
between Lake Van and the Russian from
tier and as far west as Kharput. The
town Of Melazghard consisting of five
hundred houses was destroyed and much
havoc was wrought in the surrounding
villages.
Colonel Khalil Bey, commanding the
garrison at Melazghard, with his whole
family, three other officers and eighty
soldiers persisted in the ruins. Lieutenant
Colonel Tayib Bey, whose family per
ished, became insane.

has appealed for subscriptions for the re-
lief of the destitute Mohammendans and
Christians OF the MelaZghard district.

destroyed with its entire population, num-
bering 1000 souls, including 700 Arme-
