A ROYAL BRITISH
SOCIETY JUBILEE
Hundreds of Noted Seien-
fists Will Attend Great
London Meeting.
(National News Assoc la toni

LONDON, July 13.-Hundreds Of
noted scientists representing universi-
| ties, colleges, institutions for scien-
| tific research and scientific societies
| in all parts of the civilized globe have
arrived in this city during the present
week to take part in the celebration,
next week, of the 250th anniversary of
| the foundation of the Royal Society,
the most important scientific body in
| Great Britain. Every country of Eu-
rope, nearly every one of the civilized
nations of the Orient, the United
| States, Canada and the British posses
sions in all parts of the world will be
represented at the jubilee celebration
which will begin on Monday and con-
tinue until Thursday of next week.
In keeping with the importance of
the event to be commemorated the
celebration will be on an extensive
scale and highly interesting and
elaborate program has been arranged.
King George, who, like all his male
predecessors on the throne of Eng
land, since Charles H., was made a
| member of the Royal society, is TAX
| ing unusual interest in the matter and
will entertain his fellow members of
| the Royal Society and it's native and
| foreign guests. The Lord Mayor and
| corporation of the city of London will
give a magnificent banquet to the
| members and guests in Guild Hall and
the universities of Oxford and Cam.
| bridge will welcome them.
The Royal Society received it's char
ter of incorporation, bearing the sig
nature of Charles II. and the great
seal of the realm, on July Is, 1862
and it is this event which will be com
memorated next week. But the his
tory of the society dates really back
to the year 1645. In that year Theo
dore Haak, a German, who had come
from the Palatinate to England, be-
gan to organize weekly meetings "oi
divers worthy persons inquisitive in
natural philosophy and other parts Of
human learning, and particularly of
ply. or experimental philosophy.
One of the Haak's scientific friends

tionality, acted as secretary and keep

which were at first held at the Bull
Head tavern in Cheapside, and also al
the lodgings of DR.. Goddard in WOOD

bers of these gatherings. who had re
moved their residence to Oxford
founded a sister organization at the
university under the name of The
Philosophical Society of Oxford
| Close relations were maintained be
tween the London and the Oxford or
ganization, but ultimately their join

don, where meetings were held at
Gresham college. Not. however, until
1860, did these meetings assume def

1t may not be generally known that
the squirrel can leap from a great
height, break its fall in its descent and
alight uninJured- A naturalist once
saw a squirrel leap from a treetop
thirty feet high, drop TO the ground
and run up another tree for safety.
Some boys In Mexico caught a black
squirrel nearly as big as a cat. Ii had
once escaped from them by leaping
from the top of a sixty foot pine tree.
They thought IL bewitched and want
ed TO throw it down a precipice sew
eraI hundred feet deep. A traveller
interviewed TO obtain fair play.
The squirrel was conveyed In a pill
iowcase to the edge OF the cliff, then
let out. that he might take the choice
between captivity and the terrible
leap. The crouching squirrel looked
down the abyss. then backward and
sideways, his eyes glistening.
Seeing no escape except In front. he
took a flying leap into space and fiut'
tered rather than fell into the abyss

ing to do all he could to bring about
the success of the Democratic ticket
AS one of the original contributors and
the donor of the largest sum to the La
Toilette campaign fund, Mr.. Crane

/ fight for the Republican nomination.
His indicated espousal of Wilson's

PARIS HAS A SWEET TOOTH.
A Poet to Whom Candy Brought Better
Results Than His Rimes.

Results Thap His Rimes.
The best business in Paris is said to
be that of the we'll established and pop
ular confectioner, and this fact has
been recognized. it is said. since the
days of Napoleon III. and his natural
brother. the Duke de Morny. The
duke" says LIE Cri de Paris. had Il
weakness for writing vaudevilles and
often asked the counsel of Siraudin,
who was a skillful collaboration of
Clatrville.
"But the theater brought no riches to
Siraudin. One day Morny said to him:
My friend. want to see thee in a
better situation. The idea comes to me
to put thee in commerce. What dost
thou say to it?'
"Slraudin received this proposition
joyfully, but what line of trade should
he choose? Morny and Siraudih set
out on the principle that the best bust
ness was evidently the one in which
there were fewest failures. They con-
scientiously scanned the bulletin of
declarations of bankruptcy. All the
trades were represented there-all ex~
cept one: that was the confectioner.
and Morny gave to Siraudin the neces-
sary capital to establish himself as a
merchant of bonbons. Siraudin ingen-
iously concfliated the lyric muse. He
wrapped his pralines, his sugar plums
and his chocolates in kiss papers. each
inclosing his printed verses. Morny did
better than stablish him. He fire.
quented his shop. AS the duke was the
king Of the world of fashion. he drew
all Paris by his example. and the for
tune Of the poet-confectioner Siraudin
was made"
