Stones That Travel.

Stones that travel are to be found
in large quantities in Australia and
Nevada. They are composed of mag
netic ore, are as large as walnuts and
as hard as iron.
They lie huddled in punches on the
rocks like eggs in nest. and cannot
easily be pulled apart.
In Nevada the magnetic stones can
often be found at the bottom of little
basins of foot or so across. and a
few are as much as eight inches in
diameter. The majority Of them, how
ever, are no larger than walnuts.
If a dozen of these stones are dis
tributed about upon smooth surface
two or three feet apart. they immedi
ately travel toward a common center
where they will remain unless a
larger stone of more magnetic power
is placed near them. In this case they
will be drawn in body to the big
stone.

Remarkable Submarine Boat.

1t is now believed that John p. Hol.
land, the inventor of successful
type of submarine boats, has improved
upon his invention to such an extent
that the submarines thus far built by
the nations will have to be consigned
to the scrap heap and be replaced by
the new boat which has stood num-
ber of remarkable tests. The new boat
attains an average speed of twenty
knots when sui merged and can in case
of necessity make thirty knots an
hour. thus exceeding the speed of the
fastest cruiser. The old boats did well
to attain speed of nine knots an hour
and will from now on be regarded more
as a curiosity than of any value in ac.
tual warfare.

broken fortunes.
Four and half centuries have
passed ;pway since that pathetic scene
was enasted within the grim walls Of
Muncastsr castle, but the bowl is still
in existence. It IS of glass. of a pale
green color. with a simple ornamental
ton in gold and enamel. and is about
six inches in diameter and two and
half in height. Delicate and fragile
as it is, the care which has been be-
slowed upon it has preserved it while
generation after generation of Pen
ningtons have passed away, and thus
it has been brought down to the pres
ent day valuable relic of the past.
rich in association of historical Incl
dent and heavy with the interest with
which centuries of devotion have in
vested it, 1t is only brought out now
on very rare and important occasions,
and the only use to which it is put is
that it is employed as a christening
bowl for the baptism of members of
the family.

any phenomenal features We're found at
or near the pole.
The problem is largely one OF COM
missariat. II is a question of supply
ing the provisions, clothing and 1ther
supplies necessary TO keep men alive
for the time necessary to go from the
northern limit of ice free navigation
to the pole.
Secondarily. it is problem Of trans
portation. for :be supplies and for the
explorers. Given an unlimited treas
ury, and series of food stations could
be established and regular traffic main
tained between them as far as the pole
itself.
The United States government could,
if it desired 10 do so. establish mail
route to the North Pole. and keep it
going with reasonable regularity and
frequency.
The reason why North Pole explor-
ers have failed is simply because they
have not employed the means neces.
sary to accomplish the desired result
If the plan Of International exploration
is undertaken in earnest, it Is certain
that the North Pole will be reached.
Whether it will be worth what it costs,
is a different matter.-Pueblo Chief

mother is actually worshiped as a liv-

implicitly and to serve them like
earthly deities as long as they live.
To support the parents in their old
age. to look after their welfare and to
fulfill their desires. are the duties of
children in every Hindoo household.

In Muncaster castle, in Cumberland.
ENGLAND the seat of Lord Muncaster,
there is. in the oldest part of the
building, a room which is known as
the Kings room. According to tradi.
ton this was once occupied by Henry

bedposts of handsome carved oak. in
an excellent state of preservation, and
which are believed to belong to the
bed in which the king slept
1t was in the year 1861 that he was
at Muncaster. The Wars of the Roses
were convulsing the kingdom at the
time, and the unfortunate king. fiae-
ing for his life after the defeat of his
troops at TowtOn. made his way into
Cumberland. where he was reduced 20

one night by some loyal shepherds.

ter, who was a devoted adherent to
the Lancastrian cause. Henry received
u hearty welcome, ana lay concealed
at Muncaster for many weeks. while
his enemies made active search for

with it the blessing of the most un-

presented Sir John with curious
glass bowl in which he had been ac-
customed to keep holy water, and,
kneeling down, he prayed that every
blessing might await the friend who
had shown such constancy to him
in his heavy misfortunes. and further
that male heir might never be wait

sion the king assured Sir John that
the family would prosper so long as
they preserved the bowl unbroken.

QUEST OF NORTH POLE.
Plan for International Direction Of
Polar Exploration.

1t is practically certain that within
comparatively short time some ex-
plorer will reach the North Pole.
In 1899 Captain Cagni of the Italian
expedition was within 23G miles of the
most northern extremity OF the earth
and it is quite probable that some
member of an expedition now in the
arctic regions will make a new record
even if the pole itself is not reached.
An interesting development IA the
plan of exploration has Just been set
forth by the International Congress of
Economic Expansion in its convention
at Mons. Belgium, which adopted mo-
ton approving a plan for international
direction of polar exploration and ask
ing Belgium to take the initiative in
inviting the cooperation of other ma
tionS.
The discovery OF the North Pole is
now matter Of systematic and per
sistent effort. rather than of bold cour-
age or good luck. Or, to say the same
thing in other words, the discovery is
largely a question of the amount of
cab available for this purpose. If the
amount that has already been spent
for this purpose without success were
now available in Il lump sum. there
is little doubt that the pole could be
discovered. Any government of a
first-class power could send an eXpedi-
ton to the pole. If 1t were worth the
cost. 1t is not probable that there are
any difficulties or dangers to be en-
countered In the 236 miles remaining
that are any greater than those thai
have been already successfully over.
