: With#the death of Sir Augustus
Gregory the last:of the great Aus
tralian explorers has passed away.
His demise recalls the most remark
able mystery in the; annals Of the
commonwealth. Nfty-seyen years
have: passed since an exploring ex-
pedition, commanded by a German
scientist, Ludwig Ileichardt, set out
from. Sydney to cross Australia from
east to west. To this day nobody
knows what happened to that .ex-
ploring party. Not: a scrap of pa
per, not a solitary relic of its fate,
has ever been discovered. 1t must
have been either overwhelmed in
some natural; convulsion or abso-
lnte!y anlihiiated by the blacks. Sir
Augustus Gregory led two expedi-
ttions in search Of it, one OF them
organized by the Royal Geographical
aociety.-London Chronicle. ....'7-

Acting Proverbs.

In this game each player may take
q part, or, if thought preferable,
the company may divide themselves
into actors and spectators. The
actors then each fix. upon q proverb,
which is to. represented by each one
of them individually. There is to be
no connection between them in any
way. Each one in turn has simply
to act before the rest of the com
pany the proverb he has selected.
The first player might, for instance,
come into the room holding a cup in
his hand. Then by the way of acting
his proverb he might repeatedly
make an appearance OF attempting
to drink out Of the cup, but being
prevented each time by the cup slip
ping out of his hand, thus in dumb
show illustrating the proverb,
"There's man; a.slip 'twixt the cup
and the lip" If really good acting
be thrown into the game it may be
made exceedingly interesting.

A European scientist, Raoul Ba-

Food Value Of Eggs.

Eggs are very nourishing food
and represent two important ele
ments, fats and proteids, In an easily
assimilated form. A single egg
weighs about one and one-half
ounces, Of which one ounce is white,
or pure albumin, and one-half ounce
yolk. The nutritive value Of the yolk
is greater than that of the white,
though its bulk and weight are small
err. It's solid constituents are about
one half of it's fat. Fresh eggs, prop
erly prepared, are readily digestible.
The best mode Of preparation Is
whipped raw, or cooked for twenty
or thirty minutes at a temperature OF
about 1907 (curdled). The yolks are
more easily digested when boiled
hard, and the whites are also easily
digested when hard boiled, providing
care is used to reduce the coagulated
white to minute particles which may
readily be dissolved by the gastric
juice. \
A single egg is equal In value to
dozen oysters,

Chicago, May 1C. - Representatives
of four large packing companies have
gone to Washington with the inten-
ton of making a protest to President
Roosevelt against the manner in
which they declare the investigation
into the beef industry is being con-
Quoted before the federal grand jury.
The protest, it is said, will be made
along the following lines!
That packing house witnesses have
been practically browbeaten before
the grand jury and compelled to tell
what they know; that questionable
detective methods have been used By
the secret service men to secure in
formation for the government; that
the wives Of the packers have been
called before the grand jury to tes-
tify against their husbands who are
out of the city and that they have
been forced TO remain constantly in
Chicago for no apparent reason.
That the private mail of some Of
rhe packers has fallen into the hands
Of the government when the mail had
nothing to do with the beef investiga-
ton
That the general treatment OF the
packers in Chicago by the local fed
erar authorities has been like that
accorded by the police toward com
mon criminal.
1t is said the packers have already
arranged for meeting with the presi-

Very DlssIpated.

There are good many persons
who might be said to be dissipated
and "all broke up" according to the
Japanese use Of the word, illustrated
in the following anecdote:
"They are telling in Boston Of two
or three Japanese students Of rank
who have been in the habit Of dining
each Sunday at the residence Of one
of the prominent citizens Of the Hub.
On recent Sunday one was absent,
and when the host asked why, one Of
the guests said solemnly: oh, he
cannot come. He very, very dissi-
pated!' The host thought 1t best not
to make any further inquiry at the
time, but after the meal he ventured
to ask the same young man in pri-
vate, You say Mr.. MIN Shi is not
well?'
"'No, he not very well-he very dis
sipated.'
"'He hasn't been drinking?
"'Oh, no, no! he no drunk
"Not gambling?'
"No, no gamble
"'May ask what he has been do
ing, then?'
ooh, he very dissipated. He eat
sponge cake alice time-he all broke
up now"
