Carpathia had 675 survivors on
board. 1t is very difficult to learn
II the Virginian and Partisan have
any survivors on board,
I'VE have asked Capt Haddock
and our agent at Halifax to ascer-
tain If there were any passengers
aboard the two steamships. We very
much fear, however, that there has
been a great loss OF life, but it is
impossible for us to give further
particulars until we have heard
from the Partisan and Virginian.
We have no information that there
are any passengers aboard this ship"
Franklin said there were suffl-
eient light boats to takefall passen-

legend Of the Death Of Zenith.

The death Of Zenith. the half myth
ical king of Scotland, was one Of the
most remarkable in all history-that
Is, II it can consistently be called a
historical fact. According to the story.
ZENITH had killed a son and brother
of the warlike Eennella. She for re-
venge caused Wiltus. the most In
genious. artist of the time, to fashion
an automatic death dealing machine,
wonderful statue filed with hidden
springs. levers, etc. When finished
and set up this ''brazen image" was
an admirable work Of art. In its right
hand it held basin and in the left an
apple OF pure gold. both set with dia-
monds and other precious stones. TO
touch this apple was to dare death. 1t
being so arranged that one guilty OF
such vandalism would be Immediately
riddled by poisoned arrows shot from
loopholes In the body of the statue.
ZENITH was invited to come and in
spect the wonder. and. kinglike and
just as FennelTa had hoped. he tried to
pluck the precious imita ton fruit The
moment his hand touched the in
crusted jewel he was filed with poi
soned arrows, dying where he fell.

Insomnia and Tobacco.

The dominant characteristic of to-
;bacco Is the fact that it heightens blood
pressure. The irritant action by which
It does this sometimes leads to still
more harmful results. It's second ac-
ton is narcotic. 1t lessons the connec-
ton between nerve centers and the out
side world. These two actions account
for all the good and all the bad effects
of tobacco. AS narcotic it Temporal
rily abolishes anxiety and discomfort
by making the smoker care less about
what Is happening to him. But it is a
well known law Of medicine that all
the drugs which in the beginning less
en- nerve action increase 1t in the end
Thus smoking finally causes apprehen-
sion, hyperexcitability and muscular
unrest Here this inevitable law seems
to give contradictory results. Every
physician knows that an enormous
amount of insomnia is relieved by
smoking, evensif it is at the expense OF
laziness the next day. At the same
time every physician knows that most
excessive smokers are troubled with

HOLES IN MACARONI.
Device by Which the Hollow Strips Of
Dough Are Produced.

Haven't you often asked. How do
they get the holes in macaroni?" Yes.
you undoubtedly have. and unless you
have visited a macaroni factory you
are probably still in doubt. interest
ing methods are employed in bringing
this food into the form in which it is
placed before the public.
After the dough has been well mixed
and kneaded in powerful machine it
is ready to form into macaroni. which
is of tube shape about one-fourth
inch in diameter. or spaghetti. which
is solid stick shape of about one
eighth inch in diameter. This is done
by forcing the dough under hydraulic
pressure through cylinder with fat
circular bronze die or mold at the bot
tom. The macaroni die is full Of holes
about one-fourth inch in diameter. and
each hole has a small pin in the center
Of it, which is attached to one side of
the hole. This pin forms the hole in
the macaroni and divides the dough
On one side as it starts through the
hole. but before the dough reaches the
end of the hole the divided side comes
together and remains so, making per
feet tube. The spaghetti die contains
only plain holes about one eighth inch
in diameter arranged in groups. When
macaroni and spaghetti come from the
presses or cylinders they are cut into
certain lengths. the length depending
upon whether the curing or drying is
to be done ON trays or by hanging over
rods.
In curing or drying macaroni the
length of time varies according to the
process employed and to atmospheric
conditions outside the factory and the
standard of quality maintained. Some
makers require only three days. while
others take as many as six days.

When Folks Feared Gas.

In the early days of the last century.
when Illuminating gas was first used
in London. timorous people talked of
the dangers of suffocation and Of ex-
plosions to which the gas. which was
still imperfectly purified. exposed the
citizens. Scientists confirmed these
assertions. and the first gasometers
erected in London by Samuel Clegg so
terrified the people that no workman
would venture to light the gas jets
which had been placed on Westmin-
ster bridge. But Clegg soon overcame
this difficulty by lighting torch and
applying 1t to the burners with his
own hands. On another occasion be-
fore a committee of the Royal society
of London he bored hole in the gas
holder and put a lighted candle to it,.
to the great alarm of the spectators.
but without causing the slightest acct
dent. Gradually the eyes even Of the
most prejudiced were opened to the
truth.
