British Crown CTS, 900 Richer.

As the late Capt. George Lindsay
Anthony Wilson, the Folkstone recluse,
diui without making will. the whole
of his fortuen goes to the British
crown. Several persons in his service
had expected handsome legacies. Capt.
Wilson, who was the illegitimate son
of Sir John Wilson. Bart, at one time
commander OF the forces In Ceylon,
was bachelor. and left no legal heirs.
The estate reverting to the crown I'M
der this intestacy has been valued by
the authorities at & 10000. To this
has to be added G25,663 left by Capt.
Wilson's father Sir John Wilson died
In 1856, but Capt Wilson refused to
touch penny of 1t, with the result
that the estate has remained for 40
years unadministered. Now the crown
inherits both fortunes.
Says The London Chronicle: 1T has
very rarely happened that so large an
estate as Capt. Wilson's falls to the
crown. Queen Victoria, during her
long life, had only one or two as large.
Although the aggregate amount which
annually reverts to the crown In the
case of persons dying intestate. with
out known heirs, is considerable, 1t Is
chiefly made up of a number OF very
small estates, and there are usually
many claimants. Persons entitled to
money are seldom far TO seek when
wanted, but the number Of claimants
Of money who cannot show any title to
it is very large indeed"

rannmornns Make Pearls.

Prof. Herdman's recent investiga-
lions on the subject of pearl formation
have yielded some interesting conclu-
siors. In the great majority of cases
1t appears that the pearl is due to the
presence In the oyster of marine
tapeworm. When the spherical larva
of the worm dies nacreous matter is
deposited round 1t, and the resulting
mass is known as pearl. The life his
tory of the tapeworm Is continued In
the bodies OF certain species Of file
fish which prey on the oysters. These
file fish. again, are devoured by fish
eating rays or sharks. In these latter
the tapeworm becomes mature, and
sets free numerous embryos into the
sea. These finally enter the oysters.
and 80 complete the life cycle.
The small so-caled seed" pearls are
caused by the deposition Of necreous
matter round small crystals formed In
certain muscles Of the oyster. Perhaps
the most important result Of Prof.
Herdman's work from the scientific
standpoint is the establishment Of q
marine biological station at Gale for
further research.-London Globe.

L-essenInq Fires at Sea.

Carbonic acid has been suggested by
an Italian inventor as means for les
SEEMING the danger of fires on ship
board. The gas could be stored in the
hold, either in the solid form or in
steel cylinders in liquid condition. 1t
is argued that in either form it would
be innocuous to cargo and, az It's dem
sity is very high, 1t would permeats
all the interstices between bales and
cases and sink to the bottom of the
hold. Wherever 1t reaches nothing can
burn, SO that perfect immunity from
fire would be obtained up to the level
Of the gas. The gas itself is waste
product of breweries and the only
cost is the expense Of the condensing
plant. Before discharging the cargo
ventilation would be necessary.

JAPAN AND CHRISTIANITY.


Accessions to Christian churches In
Japan are estimated by DR.. Scherer at
about 1900 annually. but they EN-
brace mainly the influential classes"
Legislators, judges. army and navy
officers. lawyers. bankers and physi-
clans.
The masses seem as yet almost as
immune to Christianity as are Mo-
hammedan masses. Count Okuma Is
represented by DIR. Scnerer as among
the Japanese of light and leading who
feel concerned at the moral condition
of Japan today. 1t Is question:,
says the count, whether as people
we have not lost fiber as result of the
many new influences to which we have
been subjected. Development has been
intellectual and not moral"
Count okuma, although not Chris
ton himself, is represented as weicom-
ing the endeavors which Christians
are making to supply to the country
high standard OF conduct"
There is, in word. ample evidence
that the action OF church-burning moss
in Toxic reflects no sentiment preva-
lent in the government circles of
Japan. Prime Minister Katsura seems
to think the American mind may be In
the dark on this point. for he has kept
the cables warm with assurances OF Of
ficial Japanese esteem for Christians
and for Americans Litera-
ture.

voir in the world. He says that In

tana, some thirty miles south Of the
city of Udalpur. is the great Jalsa-
mand, the Dhebar lake. The dam OF
this lake was built some 200 years

Its capacity Is estimated at $4,000. 00o.-

Washington, April 5. Chief Justice
Fuller will not retire from the Supreme
Court bench during the term of Presi-
dent Re osevclt. This decision Of Chief
justice Fuller will make-it impossible
for President Roosevelt 10 appoint
Secretary Taft Chief Justice, and the
Secretary Of Wsr . strongly opposed
to going on the bench as an Associate
Justice. Unless the President forces
Secretary Taft TO go ON the supreme
bench as an Associate Justice he will
remain In the Cabinet, and will, In all
probability, become leading factor In
the next Presidential race.
Chief Justice Fuller IL one of the
strongest partisans on the Supreme
Court bench. lie IL n Democrat and
was appointed by President Cleveland
His principal reason for deciding TO
remain on the bench is that he does
not desire TO give President Roosevelt
an opportunity to appoint a Republic
can as his successor.
Another factor is that he IL dis
pleased about the speculation as to
whether he will retire to make room
for Secretary Taft. The Chief Justice
does not relish the speculation, land to
show his displeasure he will remain on
the bench. He Is eligible for retire
ment and can leave the bench now
and receive full pay without doing any
work whatever.

and published what he regarded as the
requisites for business success and the
acquisition of wealth. At the present
time great interest is exhibited in the
rules laid down several years ago by
Marshall Field These rules contain
nearly everything wise and good that
could be said to a young man on the
threshold of his business career. He
should find out what sort of business
he is adapted to, he should be thorough
and faithful IN his work, he should
choose good companions, he should
practice economy, he should be Strictly
honest, he should govern his passions
and appetites, he should read whole
some literature and he should be loyal
to the interests Of his employer. This
sketch does great honor to the head
and heart Of Mr.. Field, especially for
the reason that he was unconsciously
photographing himself. If he had been
asked to tell the world how he account
ed for his own marvellous success he
could have written just as he did.
There never was q man who achieved
princely wealth by such clean and hon
Orable methods as this same Marshall
Field. Whether these rules are of great
practical value is another question.
They might all be compressed into a
single requirement: BE Marshall
Field" If any young man will have
the same physical and mental traits
and the same business opportunities as
this great merchant he may also be-
come az wealthy as he was, but there
is nothing particularly helpful or in
spring in that fact Though Mr.. Field
was a conspicuous illustration of all
the good traits and habits which he
enumerates, we doubt very much
whether he has, after all, disclosed the
secret of his success, for he may not
have known 1t himself. At any rate,
we have not a shadow Of doubt that
there are hundreds of old men in Chi
cago who have illustrated these bust
ness virtues as we'll as Mr.. Field did
without achieving any marvellous bust
ness success The converse is just as
true. Multitudes of people have been
brilliantly successful in life in spite Of
the fact that they set at defiance every
one oe these admirable rules. Some
have succeeded through their reckless
ness III business ventures, some through
their treachery to their employers,
some through their convivial and
vicious habits, some through the sys-
tematic oppression of their employees
and some through the fearless COM
mission Of penitentiary offenses. The
best thing Mr.. Field said was that bust
ness success and great wealth were not
by any means the greatest blessings a
man could enjoy. The main thing, in
his opinion, was personal character
that would command the respect of
mankind. His natural modesty pre-
vented him from saying, what we may
properly say for him, that he was one
of the few Americans who had amassed
colossal fortunes and retained at the
same time the unbounded respect of his
fellow men.
