How Clouds Are Colored,

The color of cloud depends on the
manner in which the sunlight falls
upon 1t and the position of the OBJ
server 1t will be noticed that high
clouds are always white or light in
color, and this is because the light by
which they are seen is reflected from
the under surface by the numberless
drops of moisture which go to form
the cloud Heavy rain clouds, on the
other hand. are found much nearer the
earth, and so the light falls on them
more directly from above. giving a
silver lining to the cloud, though the
under surface appears black, owing

TO SEARCH FOR
The LOST CITIES
Six Men Will Risk Their Lives in the
Peruvian Wilds in Interest
Of Science.

New York, June S.-To risk their
lives in the Peruvian wilds in a search
for the lost cities of the Incas, six
men, composing a scientific explora-
ton expedition recently authorized by
Yale University, sailed from New
York today for Panama, whence they
will proceed on their journey to South
America DR.. Hiram Bingham, assist
ant Professor of Latin American his
tory at Yale, heads the party. He has
spent years in travelling through OBJ
scure portions of the southern CONT
nent and recently published book
on the subject. In addition to Dr.
Bingham, the party includes a geolo-
gist and geographer, a naturalist and
collector, a surgeon, topographer
and engineer and an assistant ar
chaeologist.
On previous visit to Peru DR.. Bling
ham visited Choqquequira, one of the
lost cities of the Incas-lost because
the ruins of the ancient towns have
been swallowed up in the tropical
growths of the jungle. The eXpedi-
ton sailing today expects to find 9th
er vanished cities and thereby aou
much to the knowledge of the ancient
history of South America, before the
ruthless Spanish adventures crushed
and strangled the old civilizations.
"The cities built by the Incas on the
plains have long been known" said
Dr. Bingham before sailing on his
dangerous quest, "but their fortified
capitals were located in all but mac
cessible spots among the mountains,
and only lately has it been possible
for white men to approach them.
expect to find other cities in the coun-
try north of Cuzco to which place we
will go by rail from Mollendo. At
Cuzco or Arequipa, where Harvard
has an observatory, we expect to get
mules to carry us on a part of our
journey, but we shall probably have to
proceed on foot much of the way Ru-
mors have long been circulated by the
Indians of a great ancient city hidden
Urubamba. We shall try to reach
this spot We shall also visit Mount
Coropuna, which is supposed to be
about $4,000 feet high and which Prof
Bandelier, the distinguished geologist,
believes is the highest mountain OF
the New World.
"Stories of fabulous treasures hid
den away among the ruins of the lost
cities of the 1ncas have long been in
circulation, and many are the adven-
turers who have gone in search of
them. Some have returned disappoint-
ed, few are reported to have found
fortunes, but the majority have never
come back. OF course. we shall not
search for treasure, and should any
be found it viii become the property
of the Peruvian government"
Since the expedition was announced
DIR. Bingham and the Yale authorities
have been beseiged with requests from
persons who wished to go along, but
all these applicants were turned down.
The party expects to spend about six
months in South America

The Cat of the Falcon.

One of the traditions of the British
Royal Yacht club is of Lord Yarbor-
ough's Falcon. the crew of which, &C.
cording to Mr.. Ralph Neville in Lon
don Clubs. were paid extra wages on
condition that they submitted to the
usual rules in force on British vessels
Of war. These included fogging under
certain circumstances, and it is said
that. in consideration of the additional
sum paid by Lord Marlborough. some
Of the crew cheerfully submitted to the
occasional application Of the cato
nine-tails. Indeed. before the Falcon
left Plymouth sound for a cruise all
hands cordially signed a paper setting
forth the usefulness of a sound fog

perfect willingness to undergo the ex.

Amelia Studs is entertaining friend
from New York City She held re-
ception for her yesterday, attended by
80 or 40 women who couldn't very well
refuse to go and each one of them
now, of course, is expected to give
some kind of a party for her friend,
in order to balance the score. Every
time Amelia introduced her visitor
she would say. my very dear friend
from New Yawk." In the first place,
she isn't very dear friend of Anne
las, and in the second place, she
doesn't live in New York at all, but in
little town about 80 miles from there.
Even if she did live in New York, it's
nothing in particular to brag about.
Well bet four dollars if she had hail

SWIMMING. IN The DEAD SEA.

The Dead Sea contains % per cent Of
solid matter and is, bulk for bulk,
heavier than the human body.
Many believe that it is impossible to
swim in this sea, and even in Jerusa-
lem ridiculous fables are told as to
the impossibility of bathing there and
that no animals or vegetation can ex-
list near its shores.
So far as swimming is concerned
the excessive buoyancy of the water
simply renders it difficult to make
much Roadway, but a swim is both
feasible and enjoyable. Care should
be taken, howver, not to let the water
get into the eyes.
Indeed, did Palestine belong to any
power but Turkey, probably the north
ern shore of the Dead Sea would be a
popular bathing station. No doubt the
chloride of magnesia which enters so
largely into the composition of the
water would be found to have medi-
cinal and curative properties.
Perhaps a better idea of the dens-
ity of the water of this inland sea
may be realized from the following
statistics: In ton of water from the
Caspian Sea there are eleven pounds
of salt; in the Baltic, eighteen
pounds; in the Black Sea, twenty-six
pounds; in the Atlantic, thirty one
pounds; in the English channel, sew
enty-two pounds; in the Mediterran.
can, eighty-five pounds; in the Red
Sea, ninety-three pounds, and in the
Dead Sea, 1877 pounds.-The Worlds

Mother Owes Robert.
Five cents for running errands.
Five cents for being good"
That evening there appeared be

which was written;
Robert owes mother, for years OF
happiness, nothing; for nursing him
through long illnesses, nothing; for
doing good to him, nothing"
