MINE OF RAINBOW WOOD.
Rich Vein Found by Maine Farmer Tn
 Salt Meadow Bog.

Bangor. Me.-The collecting of rainbow wood is A comparatively new industry in Maine says a Bangor correspondent to an exchange.
 Though the dwellers along the seaboard have known for years that driftwood picked up from the salt water gave out iridescent tints when burned in open Rrates. they attached no value to the col brings of the flames until the rich sum mer visitors came down east and changed the picking of dI<twood from an oceupa- ton akin to idleness Into profitable calling.
 For five years the whole coast line Of Penobscot bay has been secured in quest of wood. and when the supply grew scarce and the prices advanced from slO to $25 a cord Boston chemist grew rich by inventing a powder which when burned with dry wood, yielded coiors nearly as bright as the genuine wood rom the sea.
 This fall Emery Bowden, farmer, who sold considerable driftwood in former years, went to the salt meadows at the foot of his field and began to dig sup ply of muck When he had excavated hole about ten feet deep he came to flooring of great pine trees, which had been imbedded in the peat for ages.
 The limbs had routed away and the bark and sapwood had gone. but the dry heart of the trees was as sound as In lire. Kindling fire about a log of this wood Bowden found that it gave out very bril- liant hues of indigo and green.
 No sooner had he made this discovery than he stopped digging muck and went to mining rainbow wood. He loaded a schooner with cut wood and sent 1t to ms Boston patrons, who paid him S22 cora for the cargo and asked for more Since then Bowden has hired all the

PLAYER KILLED IN
 SUCKING THE LINE
RIGHT HALF BACK ON UNION COL LEGE TEAM PLUNGES TROUGH CENTER AND NEVER REcovERs FROM HIS INJURIES.

New York, November 25.-William Moore right half back of the Union col lege football team, died tonight from injuries received today in a game with New York university. He was 19 years of age and lived at Schenectady. Moore was knocked unconscious by blow on the head while he was carrying the ball and bucking the line. New York univer- sity ultimately won the game, Il to O.
 Moore was injured about the middle of the game when the contest was closest, and the play fiercest. Althought the acci- dent temporarily delayed the game, as soon as the unconscious half back had been carried from the field, he was prac- tically forgotten and the game proceeded to the end.
 In an attempt to get through the New York center, Moore went at the line head first, like catapult. This play was his last. No one saw what Moore's head struck, but he dropped Imply to one side of the scrimmage and the ball fell from his hands All efforts to revive him failed.
 The spectators became so excited that they poured on the gridiron by the hun dreds until the police drove them back. Moore died within six hours, without re- gaining consciousness.

SAYS CHRISTIANITY
 HAS BEEN FAILURE
pr, SiIverman Thinks It Has Not Spoken In Russia in Sufficiently
 Strenuous Tones.

New York. November 25.-The 25Oth an. niversary of the landing of the Jewish race in America was celebrated here to- day with religious ceremonies. Tomor- row also prayers of thanksgiving will be offered for the same event. An arraign- ment of Christianity by the Rev. Dr. Slverman was the feature of the first service today. He said in part:
 America, England, France and Ger many must unite their forces and say to Russia:
 ".'You must stop the massacres.'
 '.The edict will soon go forth from America they must respect the Jews or take the consequences. Christianity has proved its bankruptcy. It has failed te protect the Jews and stop the riots.
 "It has not made It's voice heard in sui ficiently strenuous tones. Christianity is a failure and there Is all the nor ereasor that we should preach the gospel

ESPARTA BLAMED FOR THE ACCIDENT
INSPECTORS FIND THAT THE CAP TAIN OF THE MAGNOLIA DID NOT VIOLATE RULES GOVERN. 
 ING INLAND WATERS.

New Orleans, November 25.-Blame for the collision between the United Fruit steamer Esparta and the United States lighthouse tender Magnolia, while the latter was conveying President Roosevelt from New Orleans to the cruiser West Virginia, was fixed upon the Esparta by Captains Kelly and Bean, the local in- spectors, today.
 Their report finds that Capt. W III. Fields of the Magnolia did not violate the rules governing inland waters, and that the Esparta caused the collision by star boarding and attempting to pass the Mag nolia when the Magnolia's red light was in sight and by answering one whistle to two. The Esparta being a British ship and Capt. P. F. Arroyo, acting as her pilot, not acting under the authority of his license according to decisions of the department, the inspectors state they have no, jurisdiction over him in connec- ton with the collision.
 The damage sustained by the Magnolia has been roughly estimated at s25,O00. and the United States government through its district attorney here has already brough suit for that amount. The de- cision of the inspectors, will. 1t is expect ed, figure prominently in the trial of the suit.

Artificial Nest for Birds.

A year and q half ago the municipality of Orbe,in the Canton of Vaud, placed. artificial nests in the trees throughout the district in order to protect and preserve insect eating birds in the locality.
 The branches of the trees were studded with sharp nails to prevent access to the nests by the birds enemies.
 Blackbirds and thrushes were the first to show their appreciation of the facilities provided, and their example was soon followed by other members of the feath- cred tribe.
 The artificial nests are closely initiated from the originals. and Swiss natural ist conducts the new industry. which is in the hands of women.
