Pure Water Sky Blue.

rom IL llIuStraCON.
After n long hesitation scientific men
agree today In admitting tina water
physically pure, seen IN mass is sky
blue. This color Is that taken by the
white light of the sun when absorbed
by the water. in consequence Of a phe-
nomenon the explanation of which
would be n little long.
1t is not due to the chemical purity
OF the water. since the sea (Which is
the bluest water) Is also that which
contains the most salt. Nevertheless
according to Forel's experiments, the
matter In solution should be the pre-
dominant cause OF the modification OF
color, upon which act, besides the mat
ter in suspension. the color of the bot
to!n and the reflection of the sky and
of the banks. Consequently blue water
is pretty rare in nature: n good many
seas and lakes that give us the impress
sion OF this tint are green.
The water at present acknowledged
to be the bluest is that of the Sar-
gasso sea. between the Cape Verde isl
auds and the Antilles. The water OF
the Mediterranean off the French coast
and around Capri is bluer than that OF
Lake Leinan, but less blue itself thai
that of the lakes of Kandersteg and
Arolla, in Switzerland. Pure water
containing a millionth of ferric hydrato
appears brown under a thickness of six
meters. a ten-millionth Is sufficient for
1t to be green; and in order that 1t may
remain blue is needed less than a TWEEN
ty-millionth.

cANNlBALs EAT PHYSICIAN.
Official is Discovered by Natives in the
South of NIGERIA.

Liverpool, Jan. 5.-The steamer Oh
enda of the Elder-Dempster line,
which arrived here yesterday brought
a horrible story of cannibalism in Nj
gera. of which DR.. Stewart of the
southern Nigerian government, was
the victim. The doctor accompanied
an expedition into the interior, but was
separated from the main body. With
only few carriers, he proceeded to
Calabar river. He was riding BIZ
cycle and, being outstripped by the
carriers missed the main road and
ran into the village of a hostile tribe
The carriers, returning, found DR.
Stewards bicycle and later parts of his
body. Joining the main force they
gave information as to their discovery
The investigation which followed
showed that the body had been horrib-
ly nnutiliated and there was undoubt-
ed evidence that it had been partially
eaten. 1t is stated that the village is
only two days march from Calabar
river. 1t is known that the natives
often indulge in cannibal feasts
