A STIR AMONG THE PLANETS
Shifting Sure to Occur, Says Freder-
ic Campbell, Sc. D., Suggests
General Plan Among Them.

During the month of April there
occurred such shifting of the plan
cts as suggests some general plan
among them. On the Sd at six o'clock
in the morning the planet Saturn, that
marvel of the sky adorned with its
gorgeous rings of light and attended
with ten satellites, made the shift
from the east to the west of the sun,
whereby it changed from the even
ing to the morning star.
On the 9th. at II a. m, Venus,
brightest of all the stars, and nearest
neighbor to ourselves, met Saturn on
the west of the sun, Venus Fastening
to pass the sun eastward. On the 18th
at four p. M, little Mercury, the fleet
footed, came eastward rushing after
Venus, and passing Saturn on the
way. On the 18th the moon came
along still more swiftly and, at II p.
m. passed Saturn and left him to the
west
On the 10Th, at about 5: 80 p. m, the
moon overlook Mercury, and Is min
utes later overlook Venus. At ten

But the moon already had gained the
lead and, at 43 p. M, reached and
passed the sun, and thus became new
moon.
Not till the 21st, at six p. m, did
Mercury accomplish the same feat
and. transfer it's position = from the
morning to the evening sky. On the
2Sth at noon, along came Venus and
did the same thing, and the entire
movement was over. The result of
all was Saturn had removed from the

Seek Substitutes for Rubber.

Rubber is in such demand for mod
ern uses that not only are new plants
supplying it being sought, but eager
efforts are being made to produce sub
stitutes. Artificial indigo and artificial
camphor are among the great sue
cesses of modern chemistry, and arti-
fetal rubber seems to be near at hand,
as the production of caoutchouc by
synthesis has been already announced
by Mr.. Allsebrook and Dr. Docherty of
Burton-on-Trent, England. A process
yielding an adequate supply would
take rank as one Of the greatest of
chemical achievements. Substitutes for
rubber find some uses, and one of the
most promising recent ones seems to
be a patented German composition
containing glue, glycerine, chrome
salts, lead plaster" vegetable fibers
parchmented by acids, gum trag-
acanth, vegetable balsams and water
glass. A process of making rubber
from naphtha is said to be under test
on a large scale in the Caucasus.

humble servant. The ladies were
mostly old-Lady Arabella was the
youngest of them all-but all very
great in rank.
l had wanted to see London ladies
play-and | saw them. Jack, with his
greasy cards, in the forecastle, laying
his months wages, was a child to
them. And how they watched one an
other, and quarreled and fought!
No one among them played so eager
ly as Lady Arabella and very badly,
as usual, so that she managed to lose all
her money. She was ever bad player,
with all her passion for play. Her last
guinea went; and then, determined
not to be baked, she rose and said,
laughing:
Il have on a new white satin petit
coat, with lace that cost three guineas
the yard 1t is very fit for waistcoats
No gentleman will be so ungallant as
to refuse my petticoat as stake"
OF course, they all applauded; and
Lady AEabella, retiring behind a
screen, emerged with her satin petit
coat-how it shone and shimmered!-
in her hand And in five minutes she
had lost it to Giles Vernon!
There was much laughter, but Giles
gravely folding it up, laid it aside
and when we departed, in the gray
light of dawn, he carried it off under
his arm.

| And, as / am sinner, she pumped

Non.PoIariZina Battery.

Bichromate batteries are very ex-
pensive to maintain and dry cells do
not furnish enough amperage for some
kinds of experimental work A cell
of battery that will run ten hours with
an output of over one ampere can
be made as follows: Secure a jar
about four inches in diameter and
eight inches high and place in the
bottom of this jar the lower half of a
tin baking powder can, to which a
wire has been soldered for connec-
tions. Place in the can a mixture of
two ounces black oxide of copper, one
ounce black oxide of manganese and
some iron filings
Purchase a small crowfoot zinc and
hang it about one inch above the
half can. Prepare a ten per cent So
luton of caustic soda and fill the jar
within one inch of the top. Place on
top of the solution thin layer of kero-
sene Or paraffin. The cell will only
cost about so cents to make and %
cents for each renewal. When renew
ing. always remove the oil with a ST.

ELECTRICITY ON OCEAN LINER
Over Two Hundred Miles of Wire
and Cables Are Strung Through
out the Mauretania.

Although much has from time to
time been written about the Mau.
retania comparatively few can grasp
the significant part which electricity
plays in the ship.
Apart from the 10000 horsepower
CT the turbines which propel the ship
through the water, the electrical pow
er, which is supplied by four genera
tors, represents an additional 2,144
horsepower
Electricity is used not only for il
Eliminating the ship at night. but for a
multitude of other purposes, such as
operating the lifts, of which there are
two for passengers use, eight for bag
gage and mails and two smaller ones
in the pantries. Electrically driven
cranes and winches are also provided,
and $500 electric lamps give the enor-
nous total of over 100000 candle-pow-
er. For heating the first-class quar-
ters so electric radiators have been
fitted, to say nothing of some 43 heat
ers in the bathrooms
In the kitchens one range alone has
a frontage of about 60 feet, and in
cludes a roaster with four vertical
spitS rotated by an electric motor,
these spits being capable of dealing
with a half ton of meat at time
There is also a smaller roaster with
three spits, driven in the same man
ner. In the bakery electricity is en-
ployed to operate a large dough-ma-
king machine capable of making bread
for at least 5000 persons.
Some idea of the size of this vessel
may be obtained when it is mentioned
that over 200 miles of wire and cables
are fitted throughout the ship
The electric bell and telephone in
stallation on the Mauretania surpasses
anything hitherto attempted in con-
nection with ship work Bell pushes are
placed over every bed, and altogether
1,20S bell pushes have been fitted in
the various cabins, etc, while tele-
phones, of which there are upward of
100, are to be found in numerous parts
of the ship.
Apart from the Marconi wireless
telegraph outfit, means have been pro-
vided for coupling the ship up to the
city telephone exchanges when lying
alongside the landing stages at Liver
pool or New York.
Four electric searchlights are car
ried and in addition to the usual COM
plement of life buoys which every ship
carries, two special buoys have been
provided for use at night. These, upon
being released by pressing a button,
automatically light fare upon stri-
king the water

HAT BROKE UP THE CONCERT
Remarkable Headgear Responsible for
Spelling Performance.

A story has reached this country of
a hat which spoiled an afternoon per-
formance at a small French play
house. 1t appears that in the absence
of an orchestra lady presided over
the piano. She was neither young,
pretty nor talented and not wishing
to pass unnoticed conceived the idea
of wearing a hat that would attract
the attention of the audience.
In this she was successful The hat
looked like a good-sized umbrella COW
cred with flowers, ribbons and birds.
AS the lady took her seat the surprise
it caused hushed the audience into
silence; when, however, the pianist
struck the first notes and the flowers,
ribbons and birds began a mad dance,
the storm broke loose and the laughter
at last grew so terrific that the curtain
was lowered to give the spectators an
opportunity of regaining their compos-
ure. They never regained it, the per-
formance was spoiled and the authors
are suing the director for damages.~~

SYNOPSIS.

Hawkshaws nephew, Richard Glyn
fell deeply in love at first sight
with Lady Arabella Stormont, who
spurned his attentions. The lad
an orphan, was given berth as mid
shipman on the Ajax by his uncle. Giles
Vernon, nephew of Sir Thomas Vernon,
became the boys pal They attended a
theater where Hawkshaw's nephew saw
Lady Arabella. Vernon met Philip Over
ton, next in line for Sir Thomas Vernon's
estate. They started a duel which was in
terrupted. Vernon Overton and Hawk
shaws nephew found themselves attract
ed by pretty Lady Arabella The Ajax in
battle defeated French warships in the
Mediterranean. Richard Glyn got &C., 900
prize money. He was called home by
Lady Hawkshaw as he was about to
blow in his earnings with Vernon
At a Hawkshaw party Glyn discovered
that Lady Arabella was a poor but per-
sistent gambler. He talked much with
her sister Daphne.

This only brought a sardonic grin to

ceived by her grace. At that moment
Giles approached and spoke to her,
and the change in the great ladys
manner showed the favor in which she
held him. Sir Thomas scowled upon
Giles, but bowed slightly; and Giles
returned the look by a steady glance,
and this stingng remark:
Good evening, Sir Thomas. You
look very ill. Is your health as desper-
ate as heard It was two years ago."
A litter went around at this, and
Giles moved off, smiling. Sir Thomas
was unpopular, there could be no
doubt about that.
Presently Sir Thomas caught sight
of Lady Arabella, and, as usual, he
was instantly struck by her exquisite
beauty. He succeeded in being pre-
sented to her, and noted that she re-
ceived him with affability.
About midnight the company broke
up, and our party made move to go,
but Lady Arabella announced that she
had been invited by her grace of
Auchester to stay the night, and she
wished to do so. Neither Sir Peter
nor Lady Hawkshaw perfectly ap-
proved; but Lady Arabella carried her
point, with the assistance of the
duchess. At the last moment, her
grace-a fine woman-approached me,
and said confidentially:
"Mr. Wynne-Glyn, mean-will

with a choice collection of players?"

coach with gentleman who had been
taken i'll, land had left word for them

and she and Sir Peter and Daphne
