LENGTHENS LIFE OF STONE

Professor Brunn of Hungary has
written a paper giving interesting de-
tails of his alleged discovery of a liquid
chemical compound which renders GER
tain kinds of matter proof against the
effects of time. He asserts that It
doubles the density of nearly every
kind Of stone and renders it water
proof. It imparts to all metals qualities
which defy oxygen and rust. 1t Is also
q gernicide of hitherto unequaled
powers.
The professor says that while travel
ing in Greece some twenty-five years
ago he noticed that the mortar in
stones of ruins which were known to
be over 1000 years old was as hard
fresh and tenacious as If 1t had been
made only a year. He secured a piece
of the mortar, and has been working
on 1t ever since until now, when, he
says. he has discovered the secret. The
compound is a yellow liquid, which the
professor has christened Zorene.
An interviewer describes the follow
ing experiments A piece of ordinary
and easily breakable Stag, after INNER
sion In zorene, defied the full blow Of
a hammer. There was the same effect
on ordinary bricks and block of red
1arrah wood. All three were then I'M
mersed in water for a long time.
When taken out and weighed with deli
cate scales the presence of single par
ticle of added moisture could not be de-
tected. Two pieces Of steel submitted to
an ammonia test equal to five years
exposure to the air emerged from the
bath as they entered it. An ordinary
table knife which had lain open five
months did not show the slightest
stain. Professor Brunn asserts that he
will be able to make roads dust, germ
and waterproof, thus giving CONNER
ciaI value to hundreds of millions or
tons of Stag which is now useless IN
the mining and smelling districts. His
discovery will at the very least double
the life of metals exposed to the air,
such as bridges. railroads, vessels and
tanks.

CURING A WIFE BEATER
Carlos RIbera's suspenders Proved
Useful in Teaching lesson

Useful In Teaching Lesson
From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
II hate to say 1t, but Carlos Ribera
used to beat his wife," began the sail
or. She cured him, though. I'll tell
you how she done 1t.
Carlos, like all wife-beaters, was a
hypocrite. He belonged to the Sweden
borgian church. Well, one Sunday he
invited three of the leadin' Swedenbor-
CLANS to supper at his house the fol-
lerin' Wednesday eve.
"The follerin' Tuesday eve he got
loaded and when he come lurchin'
home at a. m. his wife, as per usual,
demonstrated, which she had right
to. for he spent half dollar what she
had give him to buy sugar for pre-
servin' with. 7-
$50 the good woman made a kick,
and Carlos got mad. He took off his
suspenders and beat her with them.
But he paid. He paid.
1.-THE next mornin' his suspenders
wasn't to be found nowheres. He
searched high and he searched low, but
he couldn't find 'em.
"And that eve when the Sweden
borgians come, still the suspenders
wasn't to be found. Carlos had to
be hitchin his trousers up all the
time, like me and other shell-backs
does.
FINALLY grub was announced.
Friends says Carlos, leadin' his
guests into the grub room, I want to
interduce you to a pie what my wife
is famous for. Excuse me- he says,
hitchin' at his waistband as he sat
down, excuse me for clawin' at my
self like this. but my suspenders dis
appeared last night and I amt seen
'em since. Now he says. well fall
to on this here pie
"The guests watched him, hungry
lookin'. His wife eyed him in a strange
way. He stuck a knife into the pie,
started, frowned and then, all red In
the face with confusion and shame,
he forked out from between the crusts
his ,missin' suspenders.
"Wes, say, them Swendenborgians
leaked and the story leaked out. The
shame and disgrace cured Carlos.
Since that night he amt lifted his
hand to his wife save in the way o.
kindness"

FACTS ABOUT THE MIKADo
Yearly Allowance Of the Imperial FAM
lily Is $1,5oo,oo0


From The Independent.
2 The yearly allowance of the mikado,
which is at the same time that of the
whole imperial family, is now s1,50O.O00
Besides he has the yearly incomes OF
S50O,OOO from the interest on the $10,-
100000 which was given to him from
the war indemnity received from China
ten years ago; of $250.000 from his
private estates, which amount to $5,-
forests, covering an area of 5,124,S73
acres and valued at s512, 4S7, 300, at 500
an acre; in all, $1,25O.OO0. Thus, his
yearly net income amounts to ST.
100000.
There are in all sixty members in
the imperial family, inclusive of eleven
married and four widowed princesses.
who are members of the family by
marriage, not by birth. OF the rest
there are eleven married and ten un-
married princesses.
The mikado is industrious. He rises
early in the morning and performs his
official duties all day for many hours.
The mikado is an intelligent man,
we'll educated. 1t is said he is erudite
enough for degree of Phi. D.
The mikado is six feet tall. He is
one of the tallest men at his court.
He is stout, broad shouldered and
weighs 200 pounds. His countenanoe

The Empress Haruko is fifty-six
years old and is two years senior Of
her husband. She is one Of the most
beautiful women in Japan. AS she is
older than the mikado she has been
able to give her motherly' care to the
mikado during all these years Of meiji.
The couple love each other dearly,
although they do not usually go to-
gether when they go out. 1t is public
ly denied that she is Jealous of her
rival. although it is a fact that the
Crown Prince Harunomiya is not her
majesty's son. but his majesty's.

SIhGN WOLFF'S ADDRESS
Fears Recent Atrocities Will Bring
 Another Exodus of Jews.

Washington, Nov 25.-Simon Wolf of this city, formerly president of the national organization of the BNai B'Rith, declared in an address last night that he feared the recent atroci- ties in Russia will bring another exo- dus of Jews to this country The ad- dress was delivered at service in commemoration of the 250th anniyer- sary of the coming or tine first Jews to America. The meeting was attend ed by leading members of the race Tn this city. Mir Wolf said:
 To-day we have ninety millions of happy, intelligent and prosperous American citizens, and at least one million and half of Jews. The won derful growth of the Jewish contin- gent of American citizens is larger in proportion than almost any other, and has become so owing to persecution, privtaions and the lack of equal rights ill other countries, notably in Russia, for within the last twenty years at least 5O0,000 of the present Jewish population of the United States have come from that section alone, and fear the recent atrocities and horrors that surpass in their tragic results the picture that Dante has painted of the Inferno will bring another exodus, surpassing in volume and misery that which has preceded it."

SENSATIONAL AccorNr.

St Petersburg, Nov 25.-The official Russian News Agency has received A dispatch from Shanghai giving a sen sational account of the manner i'm which the Japanese forced the Korean government to aequiesce to the treaty between Korea and Japan. The teIe- gram purports to be based on direct news from Seoul and contains the fol- lowing particulars:
 "0n Friday. November IF, at noon. Baron Hayashi and NM. Harfvara and kokubu entered the palace with the object of forcing the emperor to sign the treaty. The emperor and the min isters obstinately resisted. At $ o'clock in the evening. Baron Hayashi having informed the Marquis Ito of the situation. the latter, accompanied by General Hasegawa, commander of the Japanese troops in Korea. with a military escort, including gendarmerie. came 10 the palace. but till midnight had not succeeded in persuadlng the emperor 10 sign. Thereupon Secretary Stevens brought from the ministry of foreign affairs the official seal of the ministry which was obtained by force and at l;30 o'clock in the morning the Japanese themselves placed the seal on the treaty, the emperor to the end refusing to give his signature"
 The dispatch concludes "The en. tire palace. even the private apart ments of the emperor. are now Oceu- pied by the Japanese gendarmerie and It Is probable that the Japanese will soon compel the emperor to sign"

HURLEY COMFORTABLE.

Boston. Nov 25.-Captain Daniel J. Hurley of the Harvard football team spent a very comfortable night at the city hospital Hospital officials would not confirm the report that a consulta- tiOu of physicians was to be held to- day to decide whether an operation would be necessary. It was pointed out. however. that as Dr W. NJ. Bull lard. brain specialist and Dr F. H.. Nichols. medical adviser of the Har- ward team. had been attending Captain Hurley jointly. such consultation might occur at any time. No official bulletin had been issued up to 9 o'clock.
 While it was known that the captain was very anxious to follow closely the progress of the Harvari-Yale game this afternoon. 1t was stated at the hospital early this forenoon that no arrange ment had yet been made whereby ne might receive bulletins from the field.
 At II o'clock the following official bulletin was issued:
 Captain Hurley has had a perfect ly comfortable night and his svrnp- toms show a marked improvement dur ing the past twentv-f0ur hours.
