ABSENT-MlNDED fINANCIER.

A new story about absent-minded-
ness is being told on a West Philadel-
phia man, and he is not college pro-
fessor, either, but an alert financier
of large affairs who is so absorbed in
his business that similar stories have
been told on him before, relates the
Philadelphia Record
His inirmity indeed, is SO well rec
ogniZed that at his office, in big
Broad street building every sort OF
safeguard is taken, and he is a diff
cult person to see, except by appoint
ment. On this occasion, however, he
was not in his Office, but at home,
alone in the library, awaiting with
some trepidation the course of events
upstairs, where great things were hap
pening. Despite his anxiety, however,
his mind wandered and he fell to spec
ulating as TO how he should enlarge
his business so as to make II fit the
approaching application Of his do

MEXICO CALLS 1T POACHlNC
Reprehensible Practice of American
Fishermen in Waters of
the Gulf

Advices received in Washington to
the effect that the three fishing COM
panies operating from headquarters at
PENSACOLA. Mobile and Galveston, are
fitting out other schooners to fish in
the gulf waters have caused some dis
quiet in view of the announced inten-
ton Of the Mexican government to
seize every foreign vessel taking fish
In Mexican waters. 1t appears that
the Mexican government asserts that
for many years American poachers
have been operating within the three
mile limit, and after repeated warn
ings IL has now determined to stop
the practice. AS the United States
has no treaty with Mexico granting
our citizens the right to fish within
territorial waters there is no ground
for protest on the part Of the state
department in case OF seizures, once
the fact is established that the YES
sells were actually within the marine
lea'ie OF shore
The department is making an in
quirv now to determine that fact in
case of the three vessels recently seiz-
ed off the coast Of Yucatan, and mean
time II is hoped that no fresh issues
will be made.

Birth Rate of Talented.

Michand finds a steady fall in the
birthrate Of men of talent from New
England westward. In New England
out of every 100000 births 81 are
those Of men Of talent; in New York
that number falls to "a, in Ohio to
10, in Indiana to IL, in Illinois to 10,
In Missouri to 6, in Kansas to 2, in Col
orado to 1. This was learned by COM
pairing the states by the number Of
persons whose names appear in a d.
rectory of those prominent in public
life. the arts and sciences and liter
airy pursuits with the the total num-
Der of persons born. The objection. OF
course OF these statistics is that a
great many Of these men-as, for in
stance, instance, in New York city
are not natives, and after they have
become famous and prosperous have
broadened their field of work by NOV
ing to larger center OF activity,

WEAR EXPLOSIVE GOWNS.
Woman Gowned in Imitation Silk
That Has Gun Cotton for
Basis.

Science, which lately furnished a
mechanical substitute for the horse,
has now set about putting the lowly
silkworm out of business" writes Clar-
ence Hutton, in the Technical World
Magazine.
Almost unknown in the United
States, the manufacture of artificial
silk has been on a commercial basis in
France for several years, the daily pro-
duction being now about seven tons.
In forming a chemical compound
corresponding to the viscous fluid out
of which the silkworm spins his deli
cate thread, the French chemists found,
strangely enough, that the best sub
stitute was a solution of gun cotton,
most powerful and deadly of modern
explosives To what extent this gun
cotton silk is relieved of it's explosive
qualities before being woven into laces
and dress fabrics, seems to be some
what questionable. Certainly a young
woman gowned in gun cotton and
wearing dainty nitroglycerin wrap
about her white shoulders, would be a
most formidable not TO say dangerous
object If the new fabric ever becomes
popular in this country II will plainly
be necessary to warn young men not to
approach its wearers with lighted
cigarettes or other combustibles In
their hands And sparkling will be-
come a most hazardous occupation.

It frequently happens that during
severe storms the wires of the differ
