EXPLORING WINDSOR CASTLE.
King Orders Thorough Examination
of Every Part of Royal Home.

King Orders Thorough Examination
of Every Part of Royal Home.
The king has ordered q thorough ex-
animation to be made of every room
and apartment in Windsor Castle, ac-
cording to the London correspondent OF
the New York Sun. A castle with a
history Of over TOO years is worth ex-
ploring. Windsor is no doubt much
greater treasure house than was imaG-
ined up to quite recently.
Improvements made by the king
since his accession in the way of cleo
trio lighting, the installation Of bath
rooms and the Encouragement Of price
less collections which had been prac>
tically hidden for years have been
mentioned in this correspondence be-
fore, but the resources of Windsor as
a treasure house are yet only imper-
fectly understood. Not long ago the
princess Of Wales accidentally discov-
cred a valuable collection of old ivory
miniatures, while the recent rearrange-
ment Of the royal library has brought
to light several unsupported volumes of
great value.
Many of the vaults of the castle,
which have not been examined within
memory, are filled with furniture and
fittings removed from the rooms from
time to time, and in them many valu-
able finds are expected. The king Is
also anxious to test the theory brought
forward some time ago that the sub
terranean passages under the castle
lead to places far away and were con-
structed to secure safe way out for
the sovereign and his court in time Of
siege. A map of these passages SO
far as they have yet been traced is to
be prepared and then further investiga-
ton will be made.
The modern history of the castle be-
gins only with George ". When he
announced his intention of making the
castle his home a grant of $4,000 was
voted him by parliament in 1924. The
king took possession of his private
apartments in 1923. Other parliament
tary grants were made, until by the
end Of the next reign about a million
sterling had been spent on the castle.
Lord Darlington, popular member
Of the present ministry, owes his title
to an accident which happened to one
Of his ancestors. In 1906 Robert Smith,
the banker and founder Of the family,
had a house which fronted ON the
Green park, which park, Of course, was
the property of the crown. Mr.. Smith
sought right Of access to the park
from his house. The request was duly
conveyed to King George ILL.,, who re-
piled: 81 cannot grant him this privi-
lege, but will make him an Irish peer
if he likes" This alternative was ac-
cepted and the great family of Smith
was thus enrolled in the peerage.

BIRDS CHANGE COLOR.

Tfnts Are Altered to Agree with
background, Declares Scientist.
Lecturing on the coloration of birds
before the Lowell Institute, DIR. Hans
Gadow gave his audience a surprise.
The greater portion of the discourse
was an exposition Of scheme Of ''cOlor
photography" as he termed it, whereby
the animal, under the influence Of the
light it absorbs, matches itself In tint
to its environment Such a notion is
q departure from the usual lines adopt
ed by naturalists, and some Of the
auditors classed the idea as 'either un-
orthodox or else very new" says a
writer in the Boston Transcript.
The explanation took its point Of de-
parture from the fact, stated in the
first lecture, that black lizards kept in
a white china dish will become lighter
in their color markings. 1t is a process
in which the pigment of the cells is so
modified by the light absorbed by it
that a tendency toward some certain
color is established. 1t seemed on first
hearing to be. OF the nature of a n.y.
pothesis, and in it's support were assem-
bled facts such as that the Roentgen
rays, the alpha, beta and Samma rays
and those of Findsen, each and all
have effect upon the animals exposed
to their influence. what is absorbed"
said the speaker, must either help or
hurt
I'M InT1c nd
and in parts rather technical. The ap-
plication Of this principle to birds is
very difficult. The hypothesis modifies
one of the usual suggestions of devel-
opment, since it makes the environment
change the animal. This change later
being a protective device has added
efficiency as such.
An interesting exposition Of the eff
fects of climate followed, discussing
the geographical segregation of similar
" colored birds. This. point was fur
Their Illustrated by means of many fine
autochrome lantern slides and photo
graphs showing the color ranges and
similarities in birds, snakes and frogs.
Much was said with reference to the
development Of patterns on feathers,
the set used being from the same Argus
pheasant that Charles Darwin studied.
The peacock was considered last of all.
The development of the "eyes' in its
tail was followed up from the Sin
feathers. the lecturer explaining that
the "tail" is not the tail at all, but the
feathers Of the back, which are sup
ported behind the tail. This is much
like that of the turkey, forming a SER
viceable and solid backing to the basG
Of the f1imsy feathers of the peacock
that we so admire.

DROPS ANTI-JAPANESE BILL.
Governor of California Says Objec-
tionable Measures Will Not Pass.

C1OuaD1e measures WILL NOC = dSS.
AS the result of an urgent message
from President Roosevelt protesting
against the anti-Japanese measures
pending before the California Legisla-
ture. Governor Gillett has announced
that no bill of the kind will be passed.
The Governor has authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
after comforting with the leading
members of both branches of the Legis-
lature, l am convinced that no legisla-
ton directed against the Japanese will
be enacted. l am satisfied that the
people of California, and particularly
the members of our Legislature, appre-
ciate the efforts being made by the
Federal government and the represent
atives of Japan to stop immigration to
this country of japanese laborers,
skilled and unskilled.
"There can be no doubt that the Jap
anese government is acting absolutely
in good faith in it's endeavor to prevent
it's people from emigrating to our coun-
try, and in my judgment it would be
a serious mistake while they are so do
ing to enact any laws directed against
the Japanese people. This question is
one in which the Federal government is
particularly interested and its wishes
should be carefully considered and will
be, 1 am sure, by the people of this
State

7. J. HAMS HELD NOT GUILTY
Acquitted of Murder in Annis Case
Jury Out twenty-five Hours.

Acquitted of Murder in Annis Case
Jury Out Twenty-Five Hours.
At Flushing, N. Y, Thornton Jen-
kins Haines, the writer, was declared
not guilty as principal with his broth
er, Capt. Peter c. Hams, Jr., in the
killing of William E. Annis. The jury
was out twenty-five hours and took
fifteen ballots. Judging from the gen.
eral opinion at the district attorneys
office, Capt. Haines will never be
brought to trial.
This is the second time I. Jenkins
Hams has been acquitted Of the charge
of murder. Seventeen years ago ne
shot Edward w. Hannigan in an open
boat in Hampton Roads and jury de-
cided he was not guilty. Jurors stated
that the first ballot stood to 4 for
acquittal.
Officials of the district attorneys Of
fee in Queens County are quoted as
saying that Capt. Hams probably will
be surrendered into the care Of his
family or the federal government.
Under the verdict 1t is perfectly
safe for any person who is ingenious
enough to frame up a defense to go out
and kill. Private vengeance seems TO
have taken precedence over the peo-
pies law" was the only comment that
Prosecutor Darrin had to make on the
jury's return.

THAw SANITY ISSUE UP.
Trial Granted, but Jury Is Refused
and Case Goes to New York.

and Case Goes to New York.
Harry K. Thaw will be given a trial
as to his sanity, but the malner in
which he is to have it has aroused the
indigna ton of his mother and counsel,
as we'll as of the man himself.
An order for a trial was issued Sat
urday by Justice A. T. Tomkins at
Nyack, but the judge did not grant
hearing before jury, as asked in the
petition. Instead he decided that the
case be heard before a court or judge
in New York City, with or without the
assistance of a referee, as the trial
judge may decide 1t was hoped by
Thaw's friends that the inquiry would
be held in Duchess County, where the
Matteawan State Asylum, in which
Thaw is now confined, is situateS.
Mrs Thaw, after she had heard Of
the decision, gave out the following
signed statement: 81 am told that no
patient, either through his counsel or
his family, is able to remove such a
case as my sons from the district in
which the hospital is situated and 1t is
an outrage that Mr.. Jerome, who has
shown such baseless vindictiveneSs, not
only against my son, but against others
connected with the case, should be al
lowed to violate this rule, especially
when it is plain that Mr.. Jeromes pre-
tense that my son has paranoia is made
in bad faith, or his colleague, Mr.. Gard
ner, in his address to the court last
Saturday would not have entirely ig-
nored this claim, and instead have
feebly argued that he had maniacal de-
pressive insanity, which every alienist
ever connected with the case considers
preposterous am told, and it seems
to me probable, that the threat Mr..
Jerome made after the first jury disa-
greed, that he would delay any second
trial in the hope that my son might go
crazy in the Tombs, is neither forgotten
nor abandoned"
