Iolds His Sister Over an Alpine
Preciplce for Eight Hours Until
Rescuers Arrive.

Grenoble-In the Haute-Garonne,
not far from Toulouse, terrible ex-
perience has just befallen a brother
and sister, named vanGoethen, as the
result Of which the woman lies In the
hospital dying, with fractured skull,
while her brother is in the same place
desperately overcome by shock and
exposure. The story OF their adj
venture adds another to the long list
Of Alpine tragedies.
l. M. Van Goethen, who Is an en-
gineer in a paper mill, and his sister,
accompanied by friend, M. Sombar-
der, son of the director of the mill,
set out to climb Mt Saurousse. They
made the ascent, but in returning they
took the pathway leading to the GA
bier Domenon.

1T appears to be the decree Of fash
aon that a considerable amount Of false
hair shall be worn by women during
the coming season, and it is perhaps
well that there should be clear I'M
derstanding of where the hair comes
from. 1t appears to be admitted that
almost any American woman combs
out enough hair from her own head to
meet all requirements, but she will not
take the trouble to save the comb
dngs, says the Manchester Union. An
expert in the hair business stated In
Chicago recently that Americans live
too fast to save their combings."
Probably he was correct, but it is al
so probable that the average American
woman gives no thought as to where
her supplementary supply Of hair
comes from. 1t appears that America
amports its false hair from Europe and
Asia. The European hair is rated as
first class, although there may be
some misgivings as to its source In
some cases, but 20 per cent. of it
comes from China, from the heads Of
saving Chinese women, who are eager
60 swap their tresses for copper coins.
nc is worth while to save hair from
eombings In China, which the average
American woman totally ignores until
che pays a good price In the market.

This unique demand comes from G.

out a sign advertising, the fact that
bedbugs are worth just nickel a

ises to buy all that are offered up to

thinner AS been unable heretofore to

Skagway. Alaska-To have travelled
into the northern regions above the
fifty-eighth parallel sometime during
ones career is the initial requirement
for membership in the Arctic Brother
hood. unique among fraternal organ
izations f
The Arctic Brotherhood was formed
shortly after the gold rush to the
klondike in 1898, and now includes in
the northern regions several hundred
active members. The first requirement
since its organization has been an ex-
tended residence above the fifty-eighth
parallel, with the exception of few
distinguished citizens from the United
States and other countries who upon
their arrival In Alaska have been made
honorary members.
Among its members above the fifty
eighth parallel" the Arctic Brother
hood takes precedent over every civil
court. II matter of dispute of any
nature arises between Arctic brothers,
the question Is carried before the
membership of the local lodge at one
of its weekly meetings.
All parties to the dispute present
their arguments and then all the
brothers not involved In the question

Element of the issue.
Various plans are conceived and ex-
ecuted by the brotherhood from time
to time for the furtherance of the in
terests of the northwest. Strangers
to the country are entertained at the
lodges Of the organization, and If they
are prospectors they are supplied with
the most reliable information at hand.
The main body of the organization
is located at Skagway, Alaska. There
are others at Dawson, Nome, Fair
banks, Cordoba and Seward. The
lodgehouse at Skagway is declared to
be one of the most distinctive build
ings of its kind in the world. The in

Disease Germs Lurking in Most
Swimming Tanks.
>
Tests Made by Scientists Show That
Abundance of Microbes Even In
Natatoriums of Wealthy Clubs
Make Them Cesspoo!s.

New York.-The average man who
stands at the edge of swimming pool
ready to take the plunge which for
him means refreshment and delightful
relief does not realize that he is about
to expose himself to the attack of mil
lions upon millions of disease germs
lurking in the tempting water before
him. 1t matters little where this swim
ming pool happens to be, whether in
a fashionable clubhouse or in the base
ment of an East Side tenement house;
almost everywhere, owing to inefi-
cient supervision and ignorance of the
dangers involved, these pools are de-
clared by certain investigators to be
a menace to health.
So grave, in fact, do these investi-
gators consider the danger of disease
from this source that 1t has been
thought necessary to call an interna-
tional conference of bath officials to
convene at The Hague this summer,
and In New York City meeting Of
public bath officials was held recently
and the American Association for Pro-
noting Hygiene and Public Baths was
formed. The forming of this associa-

ton is preliminary step to the inter.
national conference.
Swimming pools" says H. F. J. Por-
ter, discussing the matter in recent
issue of the Survey, ARE little more
than cesspools." The public generally
regards them as refreshing, invigorat-
ing and beneficial, and few have eveS
dreamed that they may be breeders OF
disease. There are hundreds of such
pools all over the city. Recently in
the interest of the department Of bac-
teriology of the University of Chicago,
X. N. Atkins made careful study OF
five pools whose water supply was
supposed to be clean. Investigation
proved that they caused ailments OF
eye, ear and throat and intestinal dis
ease.
Investigations in Hamburg and in
Purdue, Brown, Chicago and Yale uni
versities showed that the impurities
are bacterial and chemical foreign
matter, and all detected the presence
of dangerous disease microbes. This
condition existed in places where the
details of hygiene and sanitation are
otherwise scrupulously looked after.
Examination of the Hamburg pools
showed that water fresh from the tap
contained 81 microbes a cubic cent?.
meter After "a persons had bathed in
the water there were 1900 microbes
In the same quantity of water. When
494 persons had entered the pool the
number had increased to 64,40O, and
after 500 bathers had been in contact
with the water there were $4,000 mil
crooes present to the cubic cent?
meter.
The last figures are interesting in
that they show no proportionate in
crease in the number of microbes, and
in that way illustrate the septic tank
theory; that is, after certain point
of development the septic condition of
water either kills the microbes or
they devour each other when they
have become too numerous, thus main
tanning a maximum of impurity.

SON OF KING IS BOY SCOUT
Prince Knud Of Denmark Also Pre-
pares Dinner for His
Royal Parents.

Copenhagen. Denmark. = Prince
Knud, the second son of King Chris
tan X, has obtained the permission
of his parents to join the boy scouts.
The young prince, who is very bright,
has earned the cost of his uniform
by saving up his pocket money just
as the other boy scouts are required
to do. In drill the prince has taken
a leading place and, like all of the
Danish boy scouts, he has learned to
cook while on the march.
The lesson in the culinary art was
so we'll learned by the prince that
he invited his mother and father to
a little dinner which he had prepared
with his own hands. He served his
august parents with soup. an excel
lent course of meat, vegetables and
some nice dessert. and at the conclu-
sion of the meal their matesties
agreed that they had enjoyed an ex-
cellent dinner and they promised the
prince they would soon again become
his guests.

Champion BUG Catcher

Washington in cold storage, the stom'

These stomachs, according to the re-
port, were about five per cent. stom
ach and 94.99 per cent. obnoxious IN

thing represents the portion of obnox
ious insects on their daily bill OF fare
Whether they take them a la carte
or table d'hote was not dwelt upon
in the report.
There are seventeen species OF these
birds. The aggregate benfits OF theii
depopulation of the insect kingdom
are enormous. Under these conditions
farmers will hardly begrudge them

fitch from the cherry and grain crops

fight and too slow to dodge, can only

try. In this way fy-catchers are Q
great benefit to the poultry raisers.
This great crested fly-catcher, by
the way, is a bird of marked individ-
uality. Like other bold creatures, he
is something of CRATER, and ire
quently drives bluebirds and wood
peckers from their nests that he may
use them himself. One of his pecul'
iarities is to always place a shed
snakeskin in his nest. This trait
has greatly puzzled naturalists, for
nothing in nature is without reason
Miss Nellie Blanchan, woman ornl'
biologist, suggests that the fearful
sight of a snakeskin, greeting the
newly Matched fly-catcher, may be
what causes the feathers on its little
head to stand erect.

Myiarchus Crinitus Is

u1ASHINGTON.-The department of
w agriculture, in a long biolog-
ical treatise, whatever that Is, claims
credit for discovering the one omniv-
orous fly swatter of the country. Of
course the department doesn't call 1t
that. 1t is known by long scientific
nomenclature, printed in italic. Trans
lated, this devolves itself into "fiy
catcher" or words to that effect.

partment's experts, Is widely different
from the generally accepted "swat-
ter" 1t is long, thin-shanked bird
about the size of robin, and wears
a tuft of black feathers in the gen.
eral vicinity of its wishbone.
The best thing this bird, the "great
crested fly catcher" they call it, does,
Is sit on fence rail and survey the
landscape. This it does dolefully and
without enthusiasm. By and by a
fly or some other insect comes flying
