Secret Society Among sese IsIanders

Secret Society Among Sese Isiandera
 The Sese islanders have attained a peculiar notoriety in Uganda because of a secret society called the Bachichi, which is not burial society, although it's members take deep and intelli- gent interest in all deaths and burials in their midst. In the more retired will lages, although greatly discouraged by the British authorities, 1t is said to be still the custom for the sorrowing rel atives to bear the body of the deceased wrapped in bark on rough bier to some forest thicket, desolate ravine o, other unerequented spot, where 1t is left unburied by the bearers, who nev CT revisit the place again. The Bachi chi, who are denizens of 8 neighborina village, and distant relatives of the deceased avoid the necessity of buria or cremation and show their respect for the deceased by simply eating him National Magazine.

Uncertainty of Speculative

Week End Finds Moderate Uncovered

NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-THE wayer-

day was an accurate reflection OF the
continued uncertainty Of the specuia

ment SO far in the future as TO leave
spectators unwilling to base present
commitments on conditions then 10 be

The week end found a moderate un-
covered interest remaining from the
selling operations Of the previous day
or two and the demand to cover on
that account was an influence on the
market. The expected intention OF
the foreign bankers offer to consider
further the problems of insurance oil

courtesy and her ability to make n

for herself a great host of friends a

few others in New Mexico. These will
be glad to know that h is to re-
main in executive office under

sugars which are f~ernentable to al
cohol. At the present time it has not
been learned If cantaloupes can be
made to produce more alcohol even
tually by this complicated treatment,
hence the common method was Used
in these calculations. However. if
1t were possible To ferment all the
solid material in cantaloupes, one ac-
re world bring only s35.S5 worth of
alcohol. n ton would bring $40
worth; and, after d~educting the cost
of production of ca~ntaloupes, one acre
woul net $IS.s5 from which the cos
of manufacture must be taken, leav-
ing a very Small profit, if any.
Thus, in conclusion, it is quite evil
dent that it would not pay to grow
cantaloupes for production of dena-
tured alcohol; neither would it pay
to manufacture denatured alcohol
from the waste cantaloupes.

DENATURED ALCOHOL
FROM CATALOGUES.

Inquiries nave recently come to the
Chemical department of this institu-
ton regarding the possibilities of de-
natured alcohol production from can
~taloupes. In view of the above, a
chemical examination was made OF
some dead ripe cantaloupes during
the past season..
According to our present knowledge
of alcohol. it is produced from what
W. call reducing sugars or like bodies
having the same formula These su-
gars we know in the commercial
world as d~extorse. grape sugar and
glucose, all meaning the same mater
ial.
There are different yields per acre
of cantaloupes in different parts of
the Territory, depending on different
conditions of soil and cultivation and
planting. There are also different
varieties of cantaloupes produced
which would contain varying amounts
of fermentable material, but the diff
ference in the amounts Of sugars
will not be very great in the different
varieties.
The cantaloupes analysed contain
ed 3.5 per cent reducing sugars. This
would e 1896 pounds of reducing
sugars per acre producing 10.560 lbs.
OF cantaloupes. II all these reducing
sugars were fernentable completely
to alcohol. Uwhicn is doubtful) they
would produce 1926 pounds of abso-
iute alcohol 100 per cent.) and this
wouid make 2s.ss gallons of 100 per
cent or 200 proof alcohol. At 40 cents
per gallon 2s-ss gallons would bring
11.s5. The cost of production OF the
cantaloupes and h manufacture of
the alcohol are next to be figured,
but il is hardly worth while to figure
these when we know that corn
