One of the greatest mysteries to sci
entists, one for which there seems to
be no reasonable explanation. is that
concerning the migration OF the lem.
ming, or Norway rat. Instead Of tax
Ing place once a year. these migrations
occur only once in eleven years. When
the time comes for the exodus the lit.
tie animals journey westward from
Scandinavia, allowing nothing to stop
their movements. which virtually
amount to a headlong flight. They
swim the lakes and rivers and climb
the highest mountains in incalculable
numbers. devastating the whole coun-
try through which they travel. Natu.
ralists attribute the movement to some
inherited memory Of flight to escape
an expected cataclysm, but this seems
somewhat far fetched.

PHYSICAL EXERCISE.
Eject of Boxing ON the Mental and
MoraI FacultIen.

Moral Faculties.
Boxing is an exercise which is not
only OF the most marked benefit in a
purely physical way, but 1t is Of the
utmost value as means of training
the mental and moral faculties. one
OF the most unfortunate whlmsicalities
Of our very whimsical day is the preju.
dice against boxing as a sport and
exercise. There Is no sport in which
there is provided such splendid exer-
else for body and mind and spirit as
in boxing.
The physical influence Of boxing Is
superb. Every muscle and organ Is
brought into active use. So far as
mentality is concerned. the perception.
imagination, judgment, discretion, self
confidence, aggressiveness and will are
all brought into active and rapid use.
The boxer who fails in percelvlng his
opponents intention. who misses in
Judging the power or reach of his blow,
who is lacking in self confidence, will
power or aggressiveness, who fails for
one moment to remember all the weak
points OF the man against whom he is
working that boxer is likely to fail, to
lose what we all vaIue-that is, repu-
tation. public confidence and income.
Among the many sports and games
which are of value in training the
mind l place boxing as by all means
the most valuable.-w. II. G. Latson.

November is London's worst month
for fogs. During good year the Lon
doner may have to breathe only fifty
togs. In very bad year he may have
to endure as many as eighty. London's
countless coal fires, mlngling SCOT with
mist concoct the Londoner's fog for
him. The great majority Of fogs in
the metropolis begin to form between
! and 8 in the morning. just when most
dres are being lighted.

BRAIN QUALITY.
1t Is of Just as Much Importance n,
the Quantity.

II Is of just as Much Importance ms
the Quantity.
The brain Of Daniel Webster weigh
ed fifty-six or fifty-seven ounces, that
of Napoleon Bonaparte about the same.
This is about three pounds and half.
These were exceeded by the brain of
Cuvier, the great French naturalist,
which weighed between ffty-nlne and
sixty ounces, and that of the French
surgeon Dupuytren, which weighed
fifty-eight ounces. The average
weight of the brain OF man Is about
fifty ounces and of women forty.
five ounces. The maximum weight Of
the healthy adult brain Is about sixty.
four ounces and the minimum thirty
one ounces. Men of great intellectual
power have generally IL not always
possessed large brains. The quality Of
the brain is, however, quite as Impor-
tant as the quantity, so that large
brain does not of necessity constitute
a great man. The size OF the brain is
not in proportion to the physical de-
velopment of the body, either In ami
mails or in man. The horse has brain.
less in weight than the smallest adult
human brain; that of a whale seventy
five feet long was found to weigh not
quite twice as much as that OF a man.
Even in men there is no fixed relation
between the size Of the body and that
of the brain. A small man may have
a large brain and big man a small
brain.

RESTORES RIGHTS OF
WIFE TO LADY BAG0T,
Former Miss Lillian May, of Baltimore,
May Now Sue for Desertion, If
Lord Bagot Ignores Decree.

LONDON, July 26.-The divorce court
today handed down a decree granting
Lady Bagot, of Hugely, formerly Miss
Lillian May, of Baltimore, the restora-
ton of her rights as a wife. Lord
Bagot was sued on the ground that his
allowance of $4,000 TO his wife was not
sufficient for her maintenance and that
of her baby daughter. Barbara He
left his wife soon after the christening
of this child. 1t is understood that
Lord Bagot, before his marriage, signed
an agreement that all the children born
of the union shout be brought up In
the Roman Catholic faith, but English
jurists held that such n contract was
not binding.
Counsel for Lord Bagot announced
today that the defendant did not pro-
pose to resist the claim. In the event
of Lord Bagot not obeying the decree
of the court, Lady Bagot win be in a
position to sue for divorce on the

TESLA SETTLES DEBT.
His Tower That Is to Send Messages to
Mars Won't Be Sold.

NEW YORK, July 26.-Nicola Tesla,
the electrical expert. who hopes to
hold communication with the jewellers
in Mars. has settled the debt of $1,10S
on the big steel tower that was to have
been put under the Sherih's hammer in
Sdrolk County, J.. t. next Monday.
After Tesla acquired some 200 acres
of land at Wardencliffe, L. l., he spent
thousands of dollars In erecting the
tower and other buildings, The foun-
dalton of the tower are said to extend,
well-like, to a depth of nearly 500 feet.
1t is through electrical vibrations from
this tower that Tesla believes he can
send messages to Mars.

Crazed by the Thaw Trial.

An emotional nature and derange-
ment of mind caused by reading se1lsa-
tional reports of the Thaw trial are re-
sponsible for the disappearance of Miss
Elizabeth Schwenning of Wickboro, a
pretty seventeen-year-old daughter OF
well to do people of Kittanning, Pa.
Shortly before her disappearance and
after she had been reading stories of
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw the girl called
herself Miss Elizabeth Nesbit and gave
her residence as Climax, Canada. She
is brown eyed, has dark brown hair
and Is about four feet seven inches
tall. One peculiar story told by the girl
when her mind is disordered is that
she has had to do washing since she
was seven years old.
