Geologic Work in National Forests.
The United States Geological Sur
.yey, in connection with its other work
in the west, has undertaken to .ex-
anime geologic conditions in the ma
tional forests. II has been the policy
OF the government to encourage, min
ing in the areas included in the ma
tional forests, but many fraudulent
entries have been found, which cover
snon-mineral lands or deposits that by
no possibility could be developed into
paying mines, and it is clearly in the
interest Of legitimate mining enter
prises to prevent wildcat mining
companies from obtaining title to the
lands covered by such claims.
The work OF the survey will be Of
practical value both to the forest ser,
vice and to the miners, for the reports
of the geologists will enable the for
ester to make. recommendation ID
the commissioner Of the general land
Office on the character Of mineral loca
lions. The policy Of the survey vii
be to require Its biologists to assist IN
every way the claimant who is acting
In good faith and to help the officers
OF the forest service in their task 81
protecting the mining industry and al
other interests which benefit by thu
proper administration Of the nationa
| forests.

Doing Away with Husbands

II Italy husband poisoning was so popular
that IN 1850 secret society OF young
married women was formed III Rome Tor the
express purpose OF getting rid OF unloved hus-
bands At its head was Hieronyma Sparta,
disciple % Tofana and a reputed witch. She
was the custodian and distributor OF drugs
and was undoubtedly one OF those maniacs
who love murder for its own sake
The fascinating search Of ancient records
and documents has yielded many strange
detail OF secret murder. Thus III Venice regular
tariffs have turned up, notably those Of John
Of Kaguba, who evidently put before hls
patrons q list Of poisons when they paid their
money and took their choice. According TO
this quaintest OF documents, his tariff, he
charged sixty duCats for poisoning the Duke of
Milan one hundred ducats for the Pope, one
hundred and fifty for the King Of Spain, and
five hundred ducats for the Turkish Sultan.
Among the historic poisOners of English his
tory are King John, who made love TO Maud
Fitzwalter. daughter Of one OF his most power
ful barons His addresses rejected, the King
shut the girl up IN one OF the chllllest dungeons
Of the Tower Of London. Hunger and cold
could not move her, however and in mt of
rage the savage King sent her L poisoned egg
OF which she ate and died
And there was the Earl Of Leicester Prime
Minister 10 Queen Elizabeth, who also eXceiled
ae q wholesale poisoner. Not only did he dis
pose OF his wife in this way, but he was also
suspected OF poisoning the Earl Of Essex, Lord
Sheffield, Cardinal Chatillian, and even his
friend and accompIce. Sir Nicholas Ihrog

The Female Arch Fiend

THE Marquise de Brnvilliers was the female
arch hend. She was very beautiful,
with the face Of an angel and a seraph' :
smile. The Marqui~e had an intense hatred
Of her father. At the same time she had
associated with an Italian professional poisoner
named Jean Bapti~tc de Gaudn, and little
later began her terrible dance Of death. In
the apt glisc Of q sister Of charity She began
TO promenade hospital wards, bringing words
Of comfort and delicate food to the sick and
ailIng. But those upon whom her seraphic
smile fell soon died IN terrible agony The
Marquise was experimenting with poison pro
cured from one oi her lovers.
Her first notable victim was her own
father, who died, like the hapless wretches IN
the hospitals Behold her now rich and power
ful; but the poisoning craze was upon her
and she distributed arsenic with q hberallty
unknown in the pages OF history. She fed II
10 her servants when they were awkward, 70
her daughter because she was stupid, to ner
hus band because he was in the way. But her
lover, terrified at the mere idea OF marrying
such monster, fed de Brinvilliers with anti
dotes. so that the unfortunate husband was
poisoned one day and counter poisoned the
next.
But humor is seldom Tar from tragedy; and
in the midst OF this urid work II occurred 70
the lover to die and leave behind him doCu-
mentS,-so compromising 10 his mistress, that
she WAS arrested after an entire decade Of
cold blooded crime. She was condemned to
suffer torture 10y water, and then having
confessed her long and crimson record, the
Marquise WAS beheaded.
