OLD MYSTERY CLEARED Up.
London Man Has Found Out Why the
Pins Disappear.

Z An old man in the north of London
has been making a series of interest
ing experiments with a view to find
ing a solution to the question often
asked: What becomes of the count
less myriads Of pins that are annu
ally lost?"
AS he expected. he finds that it is
the d~isintegrating effect of the air
which resolves even these in%tractable
little instruments into their W ele-
ments. He put some hundreds Of
brass and steel pins, needles and
hairpins, etc., in a quiet corner Of
his garden, where they would be sub
ject to all the destructive agencies Of
dampness, earth, wind, etc.
The result was curious. Ordinary
hairpins were the first (taking 154
days, on an average) to oxidize into a
brownish MYSTERIOUS oxide-which
was scattered by the wind as it form
ed, and 40 trace of a single one could
be detected at the end of seven
months. Common bright pins took as
long as Is months before their COM
bustion was complete, but brass ones
had been entirely turned into green
verdigris long before that.
Polished steel needles of small
size lasted a very long time lover two
years and a half), but a black lead
pencil proved itself to be practically
indestructable both cedar and plum
bago being almost as good as when
new, even though harder things had
quite rotted.

CONTRACTOR DUGGAN
DIDN'T BACK OUT.

John Duggan, who bid the lowest
among local contractors for the erec-
tion OF the Federal Leprosarium, did
not accept the contract because the
Government officers in revising the
plans in order to make the contract
price come within the appropriations,
made changes which Mr.. Duggan did
not care to accept.
Although Mr.. Duggan bid lowest, his
figure was above the appropriation, and
unless this figure was allowed by the
authorities in exact accordance with
his bid he did not care to 20 forward
with the work Mr.. Duggan is now en-
gagged in experimenting the construc-
ton of a large dam in Mendocino
County, California.
