It is planned to place the young girl on trial early in April The police still insist that the young girl poisoned her sister with strychnine. They claim they have proof that Catherine was Jealous of the pretty. clothing and trinkets worn by her sister, and to secure these she killed her sister. The young girl was confined in a dark cell in Massillon for forety-eight hours. but beyond complaining that she wanted to have better clothing in jail has shown no emotion over her sis ter's death. She told a story of how some strange man had asked her to buy drugs for him, but the police de- clare this is a piece of fiction on the part of the girl.

 MT. Roosevelt announced after the address that the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws had been conferred upon him by the University of Egypt.
 Roosevelt regretted that the univer- sity uthorities made today'S address an invitational affair, thereby turning it into a social function with com paratively new students present. He had hoped to address the students and for this reason had included the vigorous defense of law and the con demnation of the recent assassina- tion.-
 In the ColoneFs excoriation of the assassination of the Premier, many of his hearers thought there was an implied arraignment of British au- thorities for their weakness in deal ing with this crime. It developed after the address that an attempt was made to have the Colonel omit certain of his paragraphs which were deemed little too strong for an Egyptian audience but he refused to listen to his advisers.

f'The assassin is a type possessing all the qualities of the poor soldier and poor citizen. Such a man reach es the very pinnocle of infamy. It is of no consequence whether the act was committed in political or indus trial warfare, whether the rich hired it done and the poor executed it, whether it was committed under the pretense of preserving order or ob- te ming liberty, it is equally abhorent in the eyes of all decent men and, in the long run, equally damaging.
 Ro6seve1t began his address to the students by reference to the Univer- sity of Cordova which 1000 years ago, he said, was a source of light darkness. He discussed the oppor- tunity ana the need for honesty in the mana agement of finances, good faith and liberality in religious and political matters and he recommend ed that the professors of the un1Ver- sity study American and European institutions as much as possible.

 Roosevelt encountered a pleasant surprise at noon today when 20 of his native bearers and tent boys. whom he thought he had left for ever behind, visited him at Shepherds Hotel. The natives were headed by Kermit Roosevelt. They told the Colonel that they could not resist the desire to see him once more and had come on to Cairo by marches, boat and train. The Colonel gave them a feast at another hotel. Later the Colonel was presented with gold and silver cup engraved with an ad- dress in appreciation of the many kindnesses shown by him to the Syrians At 10:30 he hurried to the University where he delivered his ad~ dress which was looked upon by all as the big event of the day.

Progressing Very Close to the
Secret of Life.
Physical Function of Green plants Re-
produced-Synthesis Made by New
Physics Presented by vener.
able Prof. JungfIeisch.

Paris.-The Academy of Sciences
was startled at a recent meeting by
the announcement of great step for
ward thai has been made in the chem
istry and physics of living things. It
Is not laboratory creation of life, or
in any way the transformation of in
organic matter into an organism. But
1t Is the laboratory production of
chemical substances which in nature
are produced by living things ex-
clusiyely-and by the same physical
process -Ehich living things employ.
More thar hals century ago the
famous Berthelot won his renown as
the greatest living chemist by this
compromising of what naturally are
organic products. from inorganic mat
ter-the synthesis of organic com
pounds. His son, Daniel Berthelot, has
now made the synthesis by natures
own process-'chlorophyIl assimila-
ton" This is the physical function
exercised by green plants in sunlight,
namely, tn" Transforming of carbon
existing as a mineral into carbon ex-
ISttHs IN an organic state.
Plants do this by feeding on air;
they get the material which they trans
form from the carbonic acid and water
Eapor of the air around them. The or
ganic compounds of carbon which
plants produce serve as food for high
er living beings. Without this chloro-
phyll function of plants. which thus
assimilate the carbon of our atmos-
phere, there is no life on our globe.
Now this chlorophyll assimilation has
been reproduced artificially by Daniel
Berthelot and his assistant. Henri
Gaudechon. in all its fundamental ac-
ton.
For this purpose they use purely
physical means and not chemical reac-
ton. Under the influence of the ultra
violet rays produced by a mercury va
por lamp. they have obtained excIu-
siHely from the air. that is, from its
carbonic acid and water yapor, a num-
Der of organic compounds. They have
thus accomplished the synthesis of
ternary compounds. beginning with
uethylic aldehyde, whose condensa-
ton gives sugars and starches; and
they have gone on to the synthesis of
quarternary compounds, beginning
with formic amide-and this is the
very starting point of those albuminoid
bodies which are the basis of proto-
plasm or living matter.
This means that We have come close
us to Huxley's physical basis of life.
We have not overstepped the dividing
line between living and notifying
things. Nature has still a process by
which these carbon compounds enter
into the coIloid. automatically assim-
Hating state; and this is the resultant
of their own assimilation by the living
cell. This. too. is physical. like every
thing in nature. but whether the
process shall be eternalIy limited to
the cell itself-omne vivum exoyo-is
still the mystery of life Daniel Ber-
thelot's discovery does not touch 1t.

in science for another reason. The
