A learned doctor in a foreign scien.

Juliet was probably either Datura

first is used by the convicts in New
Caledonia when they wish to rob their
companions. but its effects do not last
forty-tWo hours nor anything like that
time. A scientist who experimental on
himself with mandragora found that
intense sickness is caused on waking,
and this did not happen to Juliet. As
for the poison which was given to Ro-

those mixed poisons composed of vege-
table alkaloids and ptomaine, since it
was so remarkably rapid in it's effects.

TWIN EARTHQUAKES.
Two Distinct Series Of Shocks Are Felt
Almost simultaneously,

Two Distinct Series Of Shocks Are Felt
Almost simultaneously.
Among the most interesting earth
tremors from scientific point of view
are those known as twin earth
quakes," where two distinct series of
shocks are felt, separated by an inter-
val of two or three seconds. In each
series the vibrations increase to a
maximum and die away, the whole
duration, including the quiet interval,
being eight to twelve seconds. In some
parts of the earthquake zone the most
powerful shocks are nearly always Of
this kind. When they occur, how
ever, there is always a strip of coun-
try where only one shock is felt.
Apparently there are two distinct
points of origin for these shocks, and
the strip where single shock is felt is
that where the two sets Of vibrations
arrive simultaneously. The fact that
this band is straight shows that the
twin shocks occur together and that
therefore one is not consequence of
the other. Probably there is an S
shaped bend in some interior layer Of
rock and the twin foci are at the points
of greatest displacement-name the
bends Of the S. The movement that
causes such twin earthquake there
fore results in accentuating the form

Water for Two Millions

The combined resources OF Lake
Eleanor and Hetch Hetchy will fur
nish water enough for San Francisco
when her population has reached the
1000. 900 mark.
During my journey In the Sierras
met the Sierra club and there was a
five nights debate concerning the
rights of the city Of San Francisco to
the waters Of Hetch Hetchy. The de-
bates were rather one sided and i felt
when my turn TO speak came that 1
was addressing a very hostile audi
ence-
Manson had put up signs all over
the city's lands to the effect that the
city and county OF San Francisco
would welcome any visitors TO the
park and invited them to camp upon
our lands These incensed some or the
Sierra club enthusiasts so much that
they pulled the signs down.
John Muir. the president OF the Sierra
club, was with that organization dur
ing the journey. He is very greatly
admired by the members OF the club.
and one Is fortunate to have the pleas
ure of being included in the circle
that Is always hanging upon his words.
He knows all about the trees and the
flowers and the way the maintains
were formed. My first view OF him
was sitting on the rocks below Rogers
lake, from where the distant walls OF
the Grand canyon were IN view. Mr.
Muir always takes his rest where he
has some magnificent mountain to look
at In Hetch Hetchy valley his bed al
lowed him to see the magnificent con-
tours OF Kolona- In the picture on
horseback which present herewith he
was looking at Kolona IN the rever-
entail attitude which became so famil-
lar to US who saw him in his beloved
mountain Businesses.
There Is one thing that the people OF
San Francisco ought never TO forget
and that is that they must choose be-
tween the Spring Valley water works
and Sierra water supply. The city OF
San Francisco can legally borrow only
about s4s.o00. 900 In addition TO bonds
already authorized 1t viii cost $40
o0o, 900 to construct the Sierra water
works. II we buy the Spring Valley
water works, as so many are now
urging. IL will forever render IL impOs-
sible to bring IN the waters OF the
Sierras and to give 20 those people the
priceless boon OF the best drinking
water on earth. The death rate OF San
Francisco is now about 20 to the 1000
With the pure water OF TuOlumne river
the death rate OF San Francisco will
be reduced TO 10 20 the 1000 That was
the result in Portland when the city
OF Portland gave up the waters OF Will
lamette river and went to Bull Run for
its supply. A saving OF 10 per 1000 In
San Francisco is a saving OF 1000 lives
a year This is really the creates ar
gument for a Sierra water suppIy.A
The city officials have decided to ub-
nit the question OF a bond issue OF
$4,000 900 to construct the Sierra
water works to the people OF San
Francisco during the month OF Decem-
Der. The grant OF the secretary OF the
interior requires that the construction
