Tapevuornos Make Pearls.

Prof. Herdman's recent investiga-
tions on the subject of pearl formation
have yielded some interesting conclu-
sions. In the great majority of cases
it appears that the pearl is due to the
presence in the oyster of a marine
tapeworm. When the spherical larva
of the worm dies nacreous matter is
deposited round it, and the resulting
mass is known as pearl. The life his
tory of the tapeworm is continued in
the bodies of certain species of file
fish which prey on the oysters. These
file fish, again, are devoured by fish
eating rays or sharks. In these latter
the tapeworm becomes mature and
sets free numerous embryos into the
sea. These finally enter the oysters,
and so complete the life cycle.
The small so-called seed" pearls are
caused by the deposition of necreous
matter round small crystals formed in
certain muscles of the oyster Perhaps
the most important result of Prof.
Herdman's work from the scientific
standpoint is the establishment of a
marine biological station at Gale for
further research.-London Globe.

British Crown e175,ooo Richer

AS the late capt George Lindsay
Anthony Wilson. the Folkstone recluse
died without making a will, the whole
OF his fortuen goes to the British
crown. Several persons in his service
had expected handsome legacies. Capt.
Wilson, who was the illegitimate son
of Sir John Wilson, Bart. at one time
commander of the forces in Ceylon,
was a bachelor, and left no legal heirs.
The estate reverting to the crown un-
der this intestacy has been valued by
the authorities at G150,209. To this
has to be added e25,663 left by Capt.
Wilson's father Sir John Wilson died
in 1856 but Capt Wilson refused to
touch a penny of it, with the result
that the estate has remained for 40
years unadministered. Now the crown
inherits both fortunes.
Says the London Chronicle: 1T has
very rarely happened that so large an
estate as Capt Wilson's falls to the
crown Queen Victoria, during her
long life, had only one or two as large
Although the aggregate amount which
annually reverts to the crown in the
case of persons dying intestate, with
out known heirs. is considerable, it is
chiefly made up of number Of very
small estates, and there are usually
many claimants. Persons entitled to
money are seldom far to seek when
wanted, but the number of claimants
of money who cannot show any title to

JAPAN AND CHRISTIANITY.
Converts Include Among Its Clas5es
Japan's Best Element

Accessions to Christian churches ir
Japan are estimated by DR.. Scnerer at
about 5000 annually, but they em-
brace mainly the influential classes
legislators, judges, army and navy
officers. lawyers, bankers and physi-
clans
The masses seem as yet almost as
immune to Christianity as are Mo-
hammedan masses. Count Okuma is
represented by DR. Scnerer as among
the japanese of light and leading who
feel concerned at the moral condition
of Japan today. 1t is question.
says the count, whether as people
we have not lost fiber as result OF the
many new influences to which we have
been subjected. Development has been
intellectual and not moral
Count Okuma, although not a Chris
tion himself, is represented as welcom-
ing the endeavors which Christians
are making TO supply to the country
a high standard of conduct
There is. in a word. ample evidence
that the action OF church-burning mobs
in Toxic reflects no sentiment preva-
lent in the government circles OF
Japan. Prime Minister Katsura seems
to think the American mind may be in
the dark on this point, for he has kept
the cables warm with assurances OF Of
fetal Japanese esteem for Christians
and for Americans Litera-

lesseninq Fires at Sea.

Carbonic acid has been suggested by
an Italian inventor as means for les
sening the danger of fires on ship
board. The gas could be stored in the
hold, either in the solid form or in
steel cylinders in liquid condition. 1t
is argued that in either form it would
be innocuous to cargo and, as it's den
sity Is very high, it would permeate
all the interstices between bales and
cases and sink to the bottom of the
hold. Wherever 1t reaches nothing can
burn, so that perfect immunity from
fire would be obtained up TO the level
of the gas, The gas itself is a waste
product of breweries and the only
cost is the expense of the condensing
plant, Before discharging the cargo
ventilation would be necessary.

How He Planned to Iiidnap John d.

In March 1905 It was my intention
to go to Cleveland, kidnap Rockefel-
Ter the oil king, and demand a ran

der penalty that IL the ransom we're
not paid Immediately | would put

Only about $4,000 in cash was ne

HILL near Cleveland, viewed the sur
roundings and considered It would
be easy work to make the multi-mil-
licnaire a prisoner. | had planned to
hire a handsomely equipped resi-
dence In the suburbs of Cleveland,
and in this residence would have
held Rockefeller a prisoner until the
ransom was forthcoming. I intended
to stock the stables with thorough
bred horses and equip the barn with
the best Of vehicles. A fine automo-

lndia's Water Supply

A British government engineer liv-
ing In Bombay asserts that India has
the largest artificial fresh-water reser-
voir in the world. He says that in
the native state of Uralpur in Rajpu-
tana, some thirty miles south of the
city of Udalpur, is the great Jalsa-
mand, the Dhebar lake. The dam of
this lake was built some 200 years
ago by the Maharana Jai Singh. 1t
covers an area of between twenty-one
and twenty-five square miles. Its
depth at the dam is ninety feet and
It's capacity is estimated at 153, 900, ,OOO,-

body upon the sands of the Euclid
Beach.
! should have commanded Rock
efeller's son to cross Lake Erie in a
small tug, manned by not more than
three men, and take with him So
100000 in gold.
AS the tug neared the Canadian
shore red light posed on a pole
would be seen. Tethered to this pole
would be a scow. In this scow the
bags of gold were to be deposited
AS the tug pulled up to the red
light the instructions were that a
rocket should be fired from the YES
sci.
This was to be the signal by which
l should know that the money was on
board and would be deposited at the
point designated.
So close to the shore was this scow
to be anchored that in case more
than the required number of persons
should be on board the tug my pal
venient point on the shore would
have sunk the tug then and there

But this Cleveland enemy of the
oil king turned me fiat when the
time for the delivery of the money
came around. I had good front, a
sparkler or two, but did not have the
price Of a meal ticket in my pocket.
Consequently, l had to abandon the
gigantic kidnapping project.
My confederate was to have re-
ceived 100000 as his share of the
proceeds Of the kidnapping.
