Plant Stones Of Philippines.

"Plant stones" seem to be among
the rarest of the strange products of
the Philippine islands. The tabashir
is variety of opal sometimes deposit
ed in the joints of the bamboo, and the
beautiful greenish-pink scintillating
specimens of the Philippines are stat
ed by a German publication to be
much more costly than the ordinary
opal. Thousands of canestalks may be
examined without finding one of these
curious gems, which are probably the
result of disease or injury. Beautiful
blush pearls or stony secretions are
occasionally formed in some cocoa
nuts and are found, ranging in size
from pinhead to pea, by carefully
examining the interior Of ripe nuts.
About dozen of these exquisite
pearls--all from the Philippines--are
said to be preserved among the treas
ures Of European museums.

Scientists Look for important Com
meroIal Possibilities.

Scientists in many lands have been
giving an increasing amount or atten-
ton to the problem OF producing from
the plant world substitutes for the
hbers and fabrics now generally In
use. To find a new cotton plant or a
new fax straw or a fiber which shall
take the place Of wool or silk, or to
put among commercial possibilities a
new material from which to manufac-
ture fine paper are among the aims.
Four inventors have recently reached
what they claim to be success, each
in his own particular search. and de-
scriptions of their products showing
how widely varying results are being
attained are printed in the Technical
World Magazine
From ramie, nettle which came
originally from China, but which
grows we'll in various countries, is
made a fiber which rivals cotton for
usefulness, and has some Of the
beauties of silk. From the huge cac-
tus leaves of our American deserts a
kind of fabric called cactus-leather is
manufactured, which while not sub
stitute for cowhide is useful for many
OF the purposes for which genuine
leather is used. Pine needles are also
being made to furnish fiber which
has qualities OF usefulness in cloth
making, even clothing being success
fully manufactured from 1t. And,
finally the Guayule shrub has been
found to contain rubber to an ex-
tent which makes 1t commercially
worth farming.

WOMAN HAS CLAIM ON GLACIER.
Expects to Dig Some Precious Ore
from Her Moving Mining Property.

Mrs. Mary e. Hart, formerly of
Los Angeles, Cal. who has just re-
turned to Seattle after visiting Alaska,
has the distinction of being the first
person to stake out a mining claim
on glacier while it was still In ac'
ton.
Sidney Noise, with the local archi-
tect firm of Hunt G. Gray. was on
board the Seattle, which has just re-
turned from trip TO the Klondike,
and he states that for the first time
In nine years passengers were able
to make landing at Muir glacier,
near Skagway.
The glacier is considered far from
safe, but Mrs. Hart, with natural love
Of adventure, stepped triumphantly
ashore, and was followed by others
eager for the experience of landing
upon the forbidding Ice field.
II was found that the moraine, a
deposit freighted with precious ore,
which is always carried with the ice
in this section. had already become
quite solid, and Mrs. Hart forthwith
staked out a claim.
Mrs. Hart has passed a number OF
years In Alaska and is conversant
with the mining situation there, hav-
ing owned and superintendent the
work in several claims. In order to
gain experience she at one time
worked with a pick In her own mine

married In London.

"All the way to London to be mar
ried," said the engaged girl. THAT is
where we are going. 1t seems long
trip, an expensive trip, an unnecessary
trip, when there are so many minis
ters in New York aching for chance
to perform a marriage ceremony. Yet
1t isn't such foolish proceeding after
all. Every season more and more
American couples marry in London.
Some of them only go over for the
ceremony, then straight home again.
Nothing adds quite as much distinc-
ton to an account of wedding as that
one phrase, Married In London. 1t
counts for more than the biggest
church In New York, with half dozen
bridesmaids and safety deposit vault
full of presents thrown in. And IL
isn't nearly so expensive. Just to be
married in London, with all fuss and
furry dispensed with, is a big enough
social feather to fit anybodys cap. The
trip doesn't cost a fraction of the
money that would be spent on any
New York wedding elaborate enough
to bring 1t up to the level of the sim.
plest marriage celebrated in London"

1t has crowded little too much flesh
on his bones, he can puff and bear it.
Your thin, nervous fellow with the
snappy eyes and your grim, close
mouthed man-they are the plotters,
planners and schemers that conspire
and overturn; they are the revolution.
lists and insurgents. The fat man may
enter into these things, he may give
his money and moral support, but he
doesn't get up instructions or build
barbados or throw bombs.
