Power and Speed.

When it is understood that the
fastest vessels now sailing under
theBritish fag-the Campania
and the Lucania-make only
about % knots, while the fastest
German vessels are operated at %
to 239 knots, the magnitude of the
undertaking of the Cunard com
pany to give their two contem
plated vessels an average mini
mum speed of 241 knots will be
seen. Roughly speaking, the
power, and consequently the coal
consumption, of two steamships
of about equal size varies with the
cube of the speed; that is, to drive
a vessel at double a given sreed
would require eight times the
power, and to treble the speed
would require p times the power.

CURIOUS SENSES OF REPTILES
Surprising Power to Divine the Pres
ence of Far Distant Water.


Prof. Werner, of Vienna, a n t.
uralist of note, has reported the
results of observations he has
been making for some time on The
senses Of the inferior yertebrates,
and he has reached some curious
and surprising conclusions.
The professor took all possible
precautions not to let the crea-
lures know what they were
watched. One general factis very
evident, that reptiles and am
phibians are strongly attracted
by water. They go straight to-
ward it, even when they are at dis
tances so great that they could
not divine its presence by any Of
the senses known to us. 1t seems
really that a sense of which we
have no knowledge informs them
of the direction in which water
may be found. There seems to be
sort of chemical attraction, says
NJ. Werner. But how does this
act, and on what part of the crea-
ture? This remains a mystery.
Reptiles also seek the light, but
independently of heat. They

METHODS OF WELDING GOLD.

Methods Are Used.

Although gold can be welded to
copper more easily than to any
other metal, perhaps, and alumni
um is always hard to manage, nev-
ertheless expert jewelers. declare
gold will weld with almost
any metal if the right methods be
adopted. There are two or three
plans which are recommended,
says the New York Tribune.
First - Take cOpperas, two
ounces; saltpetre, one ounce;
common salt, six ounces; black OK
lde of manganese, one ounce; prus-
stat of potash, one ounce; pulver-
ize these ingredients and mix with
them three pounds of good welding
sand.
Second-Another welding mate

tallic filings of the same nature as
the metal to be welded, mixed with
the fused borax, and in proportion
substantially as set forth and then
rolled out in sheets to the thick
ness desired.
Third-Prepare a mixture ofS3S
parts of soda phosphate, 124 parts
of boracic acid. Apply the powder
when the metal is at dull red heat;
it is then brought to a cherry red
and at once hammered. AS the
metal is apt to soften when ex-
posed to a high degree of heat, Il
wooden hammer is recommended.
Remove all carbOnaceous matter
from the surface to be joined, as
the success of the operation de-
ponds on the formation of a fusible
phosphate of copper. The phos-
phate of copper dissolves a thin
film of oxide on the surface of the
metal, keeping it clean and in the
proper condition for welding.

Boiling Kettles Without Coal.

IN BEHALF OF BIRDS.
Action Taken in London by the Sell
borne Society.

borne Society.
Bird lovers will be glad to learn
that the Selborne society in Lon
don has issued an appeal to mum.
Der of expert anthropologists re-
questing them to furnish reports
to the society as to the species of
birds now exhibited in milliners'
windows for the decoration of
women's hats, says the London
Mail. AS a result it is to be hoped
that the ruthlessness of the
slaughter which is caused by this
traffic will be brought home to
those directly concerned. We
learn from a correspondent who
is taking a prominent part in this
inquiry that the number of differ
ent species now to be seen in the
London shops is greater than yer
The ranks of the graceful little
sea swallows and gulls have been
heavily taxed. The black-headed
gull, which has become such pop
ular f%avorite at the bridges along
the Thames during the winter
months, is also especially prom
inent, whole birds in summer
dress being by no means rare.
Probably when the various re-
ports arrive over 200 different
kinds of birds will be found to fig
ure therein. Among the more
striking birds used for military
decoration to-day are various spe-
cies of humming birds, birds of
paradise and sunbirds, kingfish-
crs, egrets, herons, pigeons, owls,
swallows, titmice and parrots.
BY way of aiding insult to injury
these are often dyed the most hid
eous %colors, and are thrust into
shapes that suggest death by tor
ture on the rack. Perhaps one of
the most offensive exhibitions of
this kind yet devised was that ola
pair of love birds skewered to-
gether, and supporting a double
train of a foot or more in length.
made up of the wings of others of
the same species. AS many as 20
pairs of wings were used for this
purpose. Fancy two-and-twenty
victims displayed on one hat!
After this who shall call the Bore
an head-hunter a savage?
Besides whole birds there will
be found scores of nOndescripts
such as the body of a thrush or a
skylark, with a pair of terms

the beautiful white egret, dyed
green, fitted to the tail of a gull.
tufts of egret plumes and the side
plumes of the bird of paradise are
as much seen as ever, though the
cruelty entailed in their collection
has been again and again pro,
claimed from the housetops. The
present action of the Selborne So
clety has been prompted by the
announcement in the Diapers
Record, that the birds used for
millinery are not real, but are
manufactured" by gluing duck
and pigeon feathers over a lump
81 cotton wool. This is merely tri,
hing with the real facts.

MOT0RMAN CONFUSED
 TWO LIVES WERE LOST
A Fatal Accident on an Electric Rail- road Near Sacramento.

Sacramento, Oct. 1.-Two men were killed and five injured about 1:2O this morning in an accident on the North ern electric road. The accident hap pened at the north end of the Ameri- can river bridge at a point where the road curves slightly eastwards. The train consisting of two cars, rounded curve and ran into two cars on which Foreman Dennis J. Horgan and thir- teen Greeks were riding.
 Horgan had his ankle sprained badly while two Greeks were killed. George Anaz had a shoulder broken and Mick Texas had his head hurt and was in ternally injured. Foreman Horgan believes that the motOrman became confused and did not handle his ma chine properly, as the cars are equip ped with brakes and will stop within a very short space.

GREAT VOGUE OF
 SEMi-PRECIOUS STONES.

The ieweled buttons now in vogue are costly in the extreme. and are not now sold by the dozen or half dozen. Some of these buttons are mounted in delicately wrought gold or silver and set with precious stones. and they are now often made to order from specially prepared designs.
 Aquamarines. amethysts. garnets and turquoise matriX are favorites for elab- crate buttons. while the different col brings of sapphires are used by the few who order regardless of price. Cor al and malachite also lend themselves to such uses.
 Such buttons are never sewn on garment. but fasten in with gold button n-ring. screw, or tiny gold safety pin. so that the change to an- other garment is the matter of but a moment.
 Nothing harmonizes so well with the fashionable Bordeaux shades as the amethyst. and for this reason there is a great demand for this stone. Malachite. set in antique silver. makes an ideal button for a blue and green, while the turquoise matriX is adapt dDle lOI SOIlS bl hiiN SAoS s'- | The sale of bracelets has been tre- mendous There have been linked bracelets and bangles, simple gold en- graved ones and those elaborately set with jewels Oriental effects. caliber jewel designs and large single settings of semi precious stones.

THE ANCIENT ROMAN PANTHEON
1t Has Withstood viccissitudes of Over
 Twenty Centuries.

The Pantheon is the most interesting of all the interesting places of Rome. It was used for its present purpose as as place of religious worship before the foundations of the Coliseum were laid. Its huge doors have opened to admit the great ones of the earth, from Au- gustus Caesar to Napoleon.
 It stands i-. the very heart of old Rome, and the vicissitudes which have befallen the Eternal city during the 2OOO years of it's existence have left 1t practically unchanged. The golden bronze that lined it's roof has been carried off to decorate" St. Peters, where. in the form of clouds and Cup ids. cords. and curtains it fills the be- holder with displeased amaZement- Its tiles of bronze and gold were re- moved to Constantinople 1900 years ago. and the statues. which adorned it have long since perished.
