MYSTERY. OF PEARL GROWTH.

Ridges That Are Signs of Pearls
Some Abandoned Theories.
The real mother of pearl never has
been found, for nobody knows how
pearls are born and made. The evil
dence that they can be produced by
inserting some foreign body into the
mussel is doubtful, says the Chicago
Tribune, though Linnaeus, the Swed-
.sh naturalist, is said to have owed
much OF his fame to the fact that he
could produce pearls by inserting
grains of sand between the valves OF
the fresh water mussels which are
to be found in continental rivers.
Artificial pearl crosses are reported
from China as having been obtained
by placing a thin metal o within
the body of a pearl oyster and allow
ing it to stay there till it became
covered with nacreous matter. Prof
Herdman in his researches on the
pearl mussel Of Ceylon has found
that the pearls in these shells are
secreted to. cover a. parasite, usually
a nematoid worm, (which passes one
of its life stages within the shell, and
no doubt a similar cause will be found
to account for the presence Of pearls
in fresh water m~ussels.
The commonly accepted theory that
a single grain of sand within the man
lie is sufficient to produce a pearl must
be abandoned. The expert fisherman
processes to recognize a pearl bear
ing shell from others. From the Riv-
er Sain, which is said to hold the
finest Scottish pearls, was taken re-
Gently a shell with three pearls, which
was sold for $40. The shell had three
ridges running from the hinge to the
edge of the valves. Such ridges al
ways are supposed to be signs Of
pearls. In the growth of the shell
room has to be left for the pearls.
The pearl is celebrated as a treasure
Of the East and the tropical seas, but
it is scarcely known Is a product Of
Great Britain. Pearl fishing is one
of the industries of the United King
dom. The story, of British pearls be-
gins with the earliest records of the
country, with Caesar, wiio carefully
compared the British pearl with the
Oriental. ~y

PT11sBURG HAS AOTOnANA
Police Say City is Speed Crazy
and Prohibit Racing.
superintendent McQuaide Declares
That the Lives of People Are
In Danger at Every Turn.

Pittsburg. Pa. Greatly aroused
over the number of automobile acci-
dents in this city in the last two
weeks the police have determined to
prohibit automobile races in the tut
ufe. They believe that racing arouses
automobile owners to increase their
speed. According to Thomas A. Nc
0uaide, Superintendent of Police, the
automobile owners of Pittsburg are
suffering from a disease which ne
calls .automania." In an interview
Superintendent McQuaide said:
THE automobile owners OF Pitts
burg and vicinity have gone speed
crazy. In spite of the fact that sew
eral have been killed and many in
iured in the last two weeks the work
of blood and death goes on. TUp
lives of our people are in danger at
every turn. The people Of Pittsburg
are at present divided into two
classes, one owning autos who are
trying to break their own and other
peoples necks, and the others VINO
are trying to dodge. We have tried
to stop this speeding, but we seem to
be powerless. It appears that when
d S0AS1U1S DuS44COS noA Va =
buys an automobile he becomes inoc-
ulated with the speed mania, which
cannot be checked. We have passed
laws, but men who respect every
other law laugh at these. The other
day I had before me one of the most
prominent business men of >Pittsburg
for speeding his automobile. He
seemed very sorry, and I believe he
was sincere, He paid his fine and
promised never to speed again. When
he left my Office he got into his auto
mobile and started out the Boulevard
at a speed of forty miles an hour.
The city is auto crazy, that's ALL"
The Coroner's jury in the cas- of
Frank Armstrong, who was killed in
an automobile accident On Grant
Boulevard last week, returned a yer
dict in which the city was censured
for having the boulevard torn up.
This in spite of the fact that the re-
pairs were needed, and that there was
a warning red light over the work.

NEGRO TROOPS FOR NEW YORK..
Regiment is Ordered to Barracks
~Near Watertown and Oswego.

Regiment is Ordered to Barracks
Watertown and Oswego.
& Washington, D. General oliver,
acting Secretary of War, issued an
order that will probably cause a COM
imotion in New York, his home State.
1T provides for the relief of a num-
Der of regiments that have been serv-
ing in the Philippines for more than
the full allotted term of two years,
and the point of interest is found in
the fact that included in the return
ing organizations is a negro regiment
the Twenty-fourth Infantry. With
the dispatch to the Philippines of the
hTwenty-ffth Infantry soma months
ago, the United States was left with
out any negro troops except a few
'short-term cavalry men employed in
the stables at the West Point Military
Academy.
When the proposition was made
about two months ago to return the
negro troops several strong protests
were made to the department by Con-
gressmen and other prominent per-
sons representing communities where,
it was reported, these troops were
to be posted. General Oliver has
settled the matter by ordering these
soldiers into his own State.

This tendency to devote the idle days
to the reading of fiction to the exclu-
sion of books and articles of greater
moment Gems to be growing,
warns the st. Paul Pioneer Press.
This growth raises the question of
summer reading to the habits of read
ing during the remainder of the year.
Does the reading almost exclusively
of novels and short stories during the
summer tend to deprive the mind Of
power to relish heavier reading when
cooler weather comes?

BALLOON FELL ON GLACIER.
Wellman Made Start For Pole in
Teeth of a Heavy Storm.

London.-The Walter Wellman
party arrived at Tromsoe from Spitz .
bergen, where an attempt to make
the ascent in the airship with which
Wellman hoped to reach the pole was
made September 2.
A severe storm drove the balloon
back upon the glacier, but the car and
equipment were saved.
This ascent seems to have been the
NAasp desperate effort before all hope
was abandoned of making the voyage
till next summer.
