A zoological Puzzle.

italian biologists have puzzle to
solve owing to the discovery on
Mount Blanc of the body of white
bear. which has been taken to Aosta.
1t was thought at first that the bear
must have died some 800 years ago
and must have been preserved by the
ice, since it has always been held
that white bears vanished from the
Alps three centuries ago. But it has
since been demonstrated that death
could only have taken place a few
days previous to discovery. AS this
would seem to show that there are
still white bears in the Alps, expedi-
tions are to be sent to test the theory.

ell, Leroy Miller. James Elliott and
George Turner, who had eluded the
police for six weeks, were captured by
Chief of Police Biggs, of Millville,
and several policemen. The youthful
quartet, it is alleged, has robbed club
houses on Union Lake, destroying
what they were unable to move. They
have also, according to the police, en-
tered and robbed business houses. At
ter each robbery they have thrown the
police off the scent and escaped in ca
noes to their rendezvous in dense
swamp at the head of the lake, where
they were arrested. The policemen,
with drawn revolvers, surprised the
camp at breakfast, and seeing that
any resistance would be foolhardy, all
surrendered.

WATER NECESSARY FOR LIFE
Proof That Wine Will Not Serve the
Purpose Where Frenchmen
Are Concerned.

The French schooner Argus, strug-
Cling against headwinds to get from
Dfeppe to Marseilles, according to the
dispatches, ran out OF water and for
three days the Grew had nothing but
champagne and claret to drink. Near
Iy every man was disabled by fever
and acute gastr1tis. 1t was with the
greatest gratitude that the captain Of
the Argus snapped several cases of
champagne for few barrels of water
from the Oceana, Bombay liner.
Pathologists will say correctly that
there is nothing new in this expert
ence. That wine will not take the
place of water and keep men in good
condition, has been known as long as
wine has been known. Three eIe-
ments, however, in the story of the
Argus make 1t striking lesson, en-
phasizing an old truth. First, the men
were Frenchmen, with the French
mans habit of taking wine daily; sec
ond, the wines they drank as a substt
tute for water were presumably pure,
and the claret at Ssast was relatively
light; third, the three days is a very
short period for the disabling Of q
whole crew.
1t is mighty lucky for the human
race that water trust is conceded
impracticable.

statistics showing that students able
