LEFT FOR FOREIGN PARTS
SQUIRES WILL FIND JEFF HAS

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, April 10
If Bill Squires expects to fight Jim
Jeffries for the heavyweight champions
ship of the world as soon as lie ar
riHes in America he will be sorely dis
appointed There will be nothing do
ing with the big fellow this summer.
Already he and his wife have engaged
passage on a big ocean lin which
sails from New York for Europe on
June 18th. JEFF has seen the sights Of
his own country, but the old world is
an eneNplored field with him. He has
planned several trips abroad, only to
have them bust UP at the last minute.
iJcffrics and his wife will be accompun-
led by Mr.. and Mrs. Dick Adams Of
standing. Just how long this jolly
party will be away is uncertain. Mrs
.Jeffries will want#to be gone four or
five months remarked Dick Adams
but the big fellow, i suppose, will
get uneasy and want to kick back In
about two months. 1t Will be up to
Mrs. Je fries to hold him on tho other
side. My wife and want to be away
four months or So SO we will do the
engaged passage on the Kaiser VIE
helm, which leaves New York on June
f11th We are looking forward to a
very delightful time.'
39s.Then there is no chance OF JEFF
lighting this SUMMER" quizzed the
scribe.
mo, or no othev time retorted
Dick. Jeff Is doing plenty well out
OF the ring. He has no desire to so
back and his wife and mother are
both dead set against him fighting.
When you have two women like your
wife and mother on your heels you
are liable to do as they desire.

A Silent Trumpet

Alexander Graham Bell, whose expert
ments promise to give him as wonderful
success with tae flying machine as he
had with the telephone, used to teach the
deaf and dumb-it was, in fact, his work
among the deaf and dumb that led to the
telephones invention--and at a dinner in
Washington he told a deaf and dumb
story.
This story illustrates" he began. "the
necessity for carrying on aeroplane ex-
periments secretly. Were they carried on
publicly interference would ensue. Ig-
norance always causes interference Many
years ago an aged friend of mine Wis
tied church in Maine one Sunday morn

friend, who was very deaf. took from his
pocket an ear trumpet in two parts, and
proceeded to screw the parts together.
While he was engaged in this work he
noticed that the sexton, from his seat
near the pulpit kept frowning and shak-
ing his head at him. Finally. just as my
friend got his trumpet joined and made
as if TO put it to his ear, the sexton has
tened to him and whispered fercely:

EYE STONES.
Most of the Genuine Specimens Found in
the Province of Astrakhan.

Tie collection of eye stones is a dying
Industry. In New York the principal
sources of supply are sailors who touch
the Baltic sea, and, as might be i'm
agined the supply is precarious.
Eye stones are analogous IN some re-
spects to bezoars, as they are a concre-
ton found in the stomach of the En-
ropean crawfsh. Most of the genuine
eye stones, crabs eyes, crabstones or
lapilli cancrorum, are procured in the
province of Astrakhan in European
Russia.
There appears to be some confusion re-
garding the nature of the eye stone. for
some authorities speak of it as a concre-
ton in the stomach of certain crab and
others as of a peculiar shell formation
which is separated from the crab at the
time it sheds its shell.
The so-called crabs eyes are found
fully developed at the end of the sum
mer, as the crabs begin to shed their
shells. 1t is noted that these concre-
tons are absorbed into the stomach of
the crab during the shedding season and
there pulverized and absorbed, the dis
solved calcareous substance being used.
it is supposed, for the formation of n
new shell. When these calcareous shells
are not normally developed and absorbed
1t is observed that the shedding process
is interrupted and the crab dies an early
death.-American Druggist and Phar-
maceutical Record
