New York, Oct. 13.-Bald Jack Rose,
who says he was Police Lieutenant

from gambling houses, told his story
on the witnes stand at Becker's trial
for the murder of Herman Rosenthal,

him he wanted Resenthal murdered,
shot, croaked or dynamited."
Becker told me-" said Rose, that
Rosenthal meant to do what he had
threatened after they had quarreled,
to 'spueaP and break him.
1--WE have got to put Rosenthal,'
he said, where you nor l nor anybody
else will ever have to worry about
him again."
Rose said he protested at this. but
Becker was obdurate. At Becker's Or
ders, he continued, he saw Jack Zelig,
gang leader, in the Tombs and got
the gunner to kill Rosenthal
Becker told me to tell the gunner
he would frame them up If they did
not kill Rosenthal,'" Rose declared.

business relations with Becker, COL

Declares Standard Oil Gave

ADMITS DESTROYING RECEIPT
President Of OIL Trust 10 Positive
Amount Was Given to Republican
Campaign Fund in 1904.

Washington, Oct. u.-John D. Arch.
bold. president of the Standard OIL
company, was asked by the senate
committee investigating campaign &C.
dvities and expenditures to have the
books OF his company examined in an
effort to find a record Of the 100000
which he claims he gave to the Re-
publican campaign fund of 1904.
Mr.. Archbold had admitted the re-
eeipts given by Cornelius N. Bliss for
the sum had been destroyed by himself
and H. H. Rogers, now dead. He
said he had not been able to find even
book entry of the amount on the
books of the Standard Oil company.
II repeat that the money was paid"
said he, "and was not refunded; that
It was paid by me to Mr.. Bliss. l
don't want any man to tell me it was

On the suggestion of Senator Pomer-
one the committee finally asked Mr..
Archbold to have expert accountants
search the books of the Standard Oil
company Of New Jersey and its for
mer associates to try and find the rec
ord of the 100000 having been paid
out.

SPINNING EGGS.
Relation Of Fluid Friction TO tho 90.
lidity Of the Earth,

Relation Of Fluid Friction to the 90.
Iidity Of the Earth.
An interesting experiment exhibits
the phenomenon of fluid friction. Take
two eggs. one raw. the other hard
boiled. and suspend them by wires
from an electric light fixture or other
support. their long axes being vertical.
Then if they be gently turned around
once or twice it is found that while
the boiled egg continues to revolve the
raw one comes Immediately to rest
This difference is due to the fact
that the boiled egg is solid body. the
whole egg turning. while the raw egg
is fluid contained in shell. the shell
alone being turned by the twisting of
the wire and the fluid remaining sta.
tionary.
The Investigator who devised this
and the following experiments em.
ployed 1t as one of the proofs that the
earth Is a solid body and not a thin
crust Of rock surrounding duid OF
"pasty nucleus" In that case, he
held. the observed swinging and sway.
ing motions of the earth's axis in pro-
cession and mutation would be tmpos-
sible -.u.
The same phenomenon is shown In
the following experiment. though in a
directly opposite way: If two eggs
be spun rapidly on their sides on
mirror or other perfectly smooth sur.
face the experimenter by gently plac-
ing his hand upon the boiled egg as
It spins stops its movement perma-
nently. But If the same experiment be
made with the raw egg It will immedi-
ately begin to spin again when the
hand is removed. Indeed. it is extraor.
binary how long one can hold his hand
upon the raw egg without destroy
ing it's motion. The reason of this is
apparent The fluid within the shell
continues to revolve, although the shell
itself is stationary, while in the other
case the whole egg is stopped.
If one attempt to spin the eggs on
the mirror. after the manner of top.
he will find that the boiled egg will
spin for a considerable time, but that
the other will fall almost Immediately
on its side. It has been observed that
this experiment furnishes solution

Brides in Japan follow the same Gus.
tom which prevails in the western world
that of wearing white at the wed

Of it. But the significance attached to
the choice Of this color is quite differ

The Japanese bride is dressed first in
resplendent garments of white silk. the
sleeves of the costume usually being
about three feet in length. while the
sash. an important feature, measures
about eleven feet in length.
But white is the mourning color in
Japan. and the bride leaving her par

the sense that she will never return
alive. preferring death to divorce and
in consequence wearing white cos

After the exchange Of cups Of sake
