TRIBUTE TO AMERICA.
Liberal Aid Given to Science ELECTS
Comment from Abroad.

American generosity to science re
ceived hearty recognition at the an.
nual meeting of that notable body, the
British Association for the Advance.
ment of Science, at York. The presi.
dent, Edwin Ray Lancaster, in his ad.
dress gave highly interesting review
of the progress made by science, par.
ticularly within the last 25 years
which he said would stand out forever
for the achievements in this line, es.
pecially with regard to the discovery
of new chemical elements possessing
astounding properties. He paid trib,
ute to the work of astronomers, in.
Guiding the splendid accomplishments
of Prof. Pickering, of Harvard univer.
sity, and then alluded to the liberal
assistance given to science by wealthy
Americans, specifying the gifts OF
great telescopes and other equipment
as indicating the interest taken by our
millionaires in such work. He added:
"In the United States this Is not in.
frequent, while in this country it is
rare" The gentleman is correct,
There is no other land, remarks the
Troy Times, in which money is so
lavishly paid out by rich men in behalf
of education and philanthropy as In
the United States.

obituary with portrait to Paris La Ma
ture, and which was translated for
the Literary Digest, notes that it is
quite proper to be somewhat indefi-
mite en- the subject of brakes exact
age. He says:
There is nothing to prove, in fact,
that the Testuda abingdoni that gave
up the ghost the other day had really
attained so abnormal an age. All
that we may say certainly on this
delicate subject is as follows 4"
"The tortoise was captured in the
Galapagos islands toward the end of
the eighteenth century. At this time
the scanty inhabitants of this wild
archipelago regarded him as bicen-
tenarian, relying on a date cut into
his shell with knife, which, though
half effaced, appeared to begin with a
16. From this 1t was inferred that
he had been first captured in the sew
enteenth century by some of the
hardy English or French pirates who
were then disputing the passage Of
the Spanish galleons between Mexico
and the Philippines, and who made
the Galapagos their rendezvous. One
of these filibusters, in vein of pleas
antry, or perhaps to furnish data for
the benefit of future naturalists, may
have cut on the prisoners back the
date of his capture, and then set him
at liberty. Perhaps he even added
his name, which has been obliterated
by the growth of the shell.
From this vague date undoubtedly
comes the name of the tortoise,
Drake, from the famous chief of the
buccaneers, Sir Francis Drake, the
illustrious and sanguinary sea-rover
of the New World.
"The tortoise was not brought to
England till S5 years ago. After sew
eral changes of ownership, he finally
found comfortable quarters for his
old age in an enclosure of the garden
at Regents park"

STRANGE World Tour.

A story is told in Paris of titled
painters pilgrimage. Ten years ago

There was no stipulation as to time
The pair have just reached Paris on
their return, after successfully ac
complishing their undertaking and
winning their bet. They have trav.
ersed Euroupe, America, Africa and
Australia, living on nothing but the
meager profits of the vicomtes brush.

Mrs. Rosa Adams, of s19 18th Street,

to hold the spike from working up
out of the tie. The wedge-shaped
lock is thin, tapering piece of iron.
When the spike is driven into the tie
it leaves slight channel alongside
of it, into which this wedge is driven,
following the channel until it strikes
the shoulder Of the spike, when 1t i'm
mediately turns out and enters the
wood along the line of least resist
ance-which is with the grain-some-
times turning upward a little If the
wood is soft. 1t then becomes prac-
tically impossible to draw the spike
without first drawing the wedge. II
for any reason it Is desired to pull
the spike, the wedge itself, being thin,
is easily drawn from the top, although
it cannt be pushed up by the spike.
After the wedge is drawn the spike
can easily be removed, and, what Is
of great advantage, can be replaced in
the same hole and locked with the
wedge as securely as before. AS the
ties become old and the spike becomes
loose, tap of the hammer on the
wedge will set it up tight against the
rail again. The Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe railway recently had o NUM-
ber of them made at it's shops and put
into it's track for q test. We under.
stand that more than a million of
these have already been ordered"

tie longer, the weather will do the
rest. With the first heavy snow in
the mountains, which usually comes
long before this, the Utah will have to
put up its tools and wait till next
summer"
Adams lighted another cigarette.
Pardon me If am inquisitive," he
said, but for the life of me cant
understand what these obstructionists
can do. OF course, they can't use
force"
Winton's smile was grim. Cant
they? Wait till you get on the ground.
But the first move was peaceable
enough. They got an injunction from
the courts restraining the new line
from encroaching on their right OF
way"
Which was thing that nobody
wanted to do" said Adams, between
! limitations.
(which was a thing the Utah had to
do" corrected Winton. 'The canyon
is narrow gorge-a mere slit in parts
of it. This is where they have u.s."
"Oh, well; l suppose we took an
appeal and asked to have the in

I'VE did, promptly; and that is the

Light Attached to a Life Buoy.

ment the life preserver strikes the
water the light gives out a bright
flame, showing its location not only
to the person overheard, but marking
the spot for the crew, who put back
in a small boat. AS the average pas
senger steamer cannot be stopped in
much less than mile when under
full headway, the importance of the
light in finding the spot is evident
The signal burns with 300 candlepow

already in use in the American navy.
Another type is the projectile which

BEES CLOSED A MINE.
Swarmed in Millions and Men Were
Unable to Work.

There are instances in great number
where mining operations were tenn
porarily suspended by shortage OF
funds or by water flooding the proper
ty, but it remained for Mohawk, a
small station along the Southern Pa
cific, to furnish a new cause which is
unique in the history of mining. The
company affected owns the Red Cross
mines in the Mohawk mountains.
Millions of bees, attracted by the
water at these mines and forced from
their hives in the mountains by the
drought, took possession of the water
supply, and their numbers were so
great that it was found impossible to
drive the swarms away. Consequently
the mines have been shut down until
the rainy season sets in, when it Is
hoped the bees will return to their
mountain homes-Sacramento Bee.

There were 200 present, including
many of the most prominent citizens
OF North Yakima and Eliensburg.
Tables and cards were provided for
those who could resist the invitation
OF the music. Few cared for this
form of amusement, however, and
the dancing continued until 2 o'clock
no one firing enough to leave before
the strains of Home Sweet Home
ended one of the most enjoyable eve
nings ever given by this popular or
I der.
Three committees made the ar
engagements and carried out the plans
for the evening. The executive COM
mittee, of which Dr.. Tetreau, by vir-
tue of'his rank as grand knight, was
chairman, appointed the committees
on decorating and receiving, Ronald
Macarthur acting as chairman of the
former and John H. Lynch of the lat
ter. Every where the work of these
committees was visible. The enter
tainment went smoothly from start
to finish, guests were cordially re-
ceived and strangers especially were
made to feel at home, while the dec
orations were as harmonious and APP
propriate as ever seen in so large a
hall in this city.
