'-hc Missouri Led Speed Contest &C.
tween Seven Bio Warships.

nc Mte6curi Lea speed Contctt &C.
tween Seven Big Warships.
New York, May 9.-News OF an eight
hour ocean race, in which seven big
United States battieships participated,
was brought here by the battleship
Alabama, which arrived in command
OF Rear Admiral Charles II. Davis and
will so to the navy yard 20 be over
hauled because Of the poor showing
which she made in the contest.
The ships were coming up tie coast
last Saturday and we're about 200 miles
south OF Cape Henry when the word
was given for a speed test. For two
hours it was nip and tuck. there being
scarcely a change ia the relative posi-
tion Of the participants. BY that time
excitement was running high on the
battleships. and the speed contest hav-
ing developed into a race. Finally the
Massachusetts, and the Alabama began
to fall behiai, and when the signal end.
ing the race was flashed both these
ships were far in tho rear. The Ala.
bama, which has the record Of being
one Of the fastest battleships in tn,
navy. was fully a mile and half be-
hind the Massachusetts.
At the finish the battleship Missouri
which had drawn away from the 9th
ers, was only 7Slk miles south Of Capl
Henry, having covered 1854 miles il
the eight hours.

Rumors Unfounded.

Paris, May "a general depression
prevailed on the Bourse owing TO the
Japanese attitude against France over
the question Of neutrality in the Far
East
A semi-oficial note says: Contrary
to the allegations contained in a dis
patch from Hong Kong TO a foreign
agency, not only has the French gov
ernment not disregarded the rules of
neutrality. but after sending its civil
and military agents very precise in-
structions for the enforcement of those
rules the government has unremitting-
ly seen to their execution"
The critical tone of the British press
brought out an emphatic general state
ment from the foreign Office that the
accusations are unfounded.

Boy Ran Away q Month AGO, After
Accidentally Shooting comrade.

the dread that he may be a muir
derer. James Stanton, 16 years old. OF
Elizabeth. N. j., has been wandering
about this city for the past month. lie

HARMLESS NOISE AT LAST.
Physics Professors Cannon That

Physics Professors cannon That
Won't Destroy the Boy.
The casualties Of Fourth Of July have
inspired Professor William Stoddard
Franklin, head Of the physics depart
ment at Lehigh university, TO invent
toy cannon which will make as much
noise as the death engine operated
with powder, but do no damage, says a
special dispatch from Wilkesbarre, Pa,
to the New York World.
The harmless cannon is operated on
the principle Of the gas engine. An
electric spark ignites the gas and air,
causing a loud explosion; hurls a cork
shell and emits dame. which Is Of
such low temperature, however, that
il does not even scOrch tissue paper.
Professor Franklin says that the cost
Of 5000 shots is not more than cents.

rian Pacific squadron had left Kong
Hal CKanh Hoa or Mia Trang) Bay.
This follows the efforts of the French
authorities to keep the squadron NOV
ing. Its destination is not given.
Roiestvensky's squadron was located
by Admiral De Jonquieres' intelligence

Russian Fleets Have United.

st. Petersburg. May 9.--According 10
dispatches to the admiralty brought to
Saigon by the hospital ship Kostroma,
the junction of Vice Admirais Rojest-
vensky and Nebogatoff is by this time
an accomplished fact. The admiralty
processes ignorance Of the present To-
cation OF the united sQuadrons; but in
view Of the long and uninterrupted
voyage Of Nebogatoff's division it is
believed his ships will spend some time
in sheltered waters Of the Chinese Sea
near the coast but outside the three
mile limit in order to complete final
recoaling and other preparations be-
fore setting out on the last and crucial
stage Of the voyage.

Broken Neutrality Denied BY Franc,

Broken Neutrality Denieu hY FFdnCcs
London. May 9.-France has roiter-
ated its assurances to England that
Rojestvenslky had not and will not be
permitted 10 abuse French neutrality
in any way involving practical harm
to Japan.
These assurances sound rather hol
low in Downing street where it is ad-
mitted that France appears already to
have given aid TO the Russian squad
rons. without which Rojestvensky
probably could never have brought up
his armada in shape to make effective
attack on Togo's feet.
The situation could hardly be more
serious. Lord Lansdowne and his col
leagues in the cabinet are thoroughly
aroused. The Japanese are excited and
are pressing the British government to
defend them against the Russo-French
coalition.
Il is not thought that a general war
will result unless France should adopt
a recalcitrant instead OF a conciliatory
attitude Lord Lansdowne will stand
a great deal in order to avoid a rupture
with France and the consequent de-
struction of the diplomatic achieve-
ments which underlie his growing
fame. It is also believed that Deloasse
will exert himself to the utmost TO pre-
vent such a catastrophe.
Intense bitterness prevails in Down
ing street and throughout naval and
military circles against Germany. The
kaiser is held responsible for existing
complications to a greater degree thar
even Russian advocates of a general
war as a means of avoiding complete
Russian humiliation.

Period of CESSATION.

During the past ten years observa-
lions on the period Of CESSATION were
made on all cows in the herd at Cornell
university. The average number of
cows has been about twenty, two-thirds
Holstein and high grade Holstein and
one-third Jersey and high grade Jer-
sey, with a few natives, mixed and
crossbred cattle. In all, 1914 observa-
lions were made. OF these, nine ter
minated in the dropping Of dead calves
prior to 253 days of pregnancy, and
three more were doubtful, so only 1872
were considered normal. The average
period Of CESSATION was almost exactly
$50 days. The shortest time was 264
days, the longest 296. Approximately
equal numbers Of births occurred on
each day from the two hundred and
seventy-fourth to tie two hundred and
eighty-seventh inclusive The period
Of CESSATION was the same for male as
for female calves. When twins were
born the time was five days less than
the general average and eight DAYS
less than the average Of the single
births of the same COWS.

Studying Nature.

The thing to aim at in studying the
beauties of nature, as is the case with
all artistic pleasures, is the perception
of quality, of small effects. Many Of
the people who believe themselves to
have an appreciation of natural seen
cry cannot appreciate it except on a
sensational scale. They can derive q
certain pleasure from wide prospects
Of startling beauty, rugged mountains,
steep gorges, great falls of waterfall
the things that are supposed to be pic
turesque But, though this is all very
we'll as far as it goes, it is a very ele-
mentary kind of thing. The perception
Of which speak is a perception which
can be fed in the most familiar scene,
In the shortest stroll, even in momen-
tary glance from window The things
TO look out for are little accidents Of
light and color, little effects of chance
grouping, the TRANSPORTATION of some
we'll known and even commonplace OBJ
iect, such as is produced by the sudden
burst into greenness of the trees that
peep over some suburban garden wall
or by the sunlight falling by happy
accident on pool or fower.-Cornhill.
