SHE GOES TO STUDY edible
FLORA OF THE south SEAS

However, our trip, which will in
clude Sydney and points in New Zea
land and Tahiti, will not be confined
to the study of seaweeds. The island
ers have the crude beginnings of many
to study these.
For example, the we'll known kappa
or tapa cloth is colored with some of
the most beautiful dyes known in the
world Pinks and browns and other
colors may be found in delicate
shades. These dyes are purely Vege-
table, and thus have many advantages
ever the universal aniline dyes, and,
| believe, with scientific manufacture,
could be produced more cheaply than
the aniline colors.
THE islands make a crude sort of
PAPER; in fact, the kappa cloth is only
kind Of paper, from plants on the
islands. Many of these could be trans
planted to this country, and would fur
niSh an alternative source of paper
pulp which might save the forests OF
the north. Perhaps, and all scientific
investigation starts with perhaps,
the kappa cloth could be strengthened
sufficiently for making it sewable, and
the possibilities of this soft and fairly
strong vegetable cloth, which is so
cheap, furnish good food for the
imagination"
Miss Tilden objects to the pompous
titles usually affixed to university per
sOnages as inappropriate to women.
Please don't say much about my
scientific studies," pleaded Miss Til
den. Il only happened to take up al
gology because | have been deeply in,
terested by the ocean since childhood.
l don't consider purely scientific
studies as the best aim for girls, and
strive to make my Investigations valu-
able from the economic standpoint"

MAN CHAINED 20 YEAR.
Extraordinary Treatment o
Son by PennSylvanianS

=
PITTSBURG, Pa, July 16.-A prfg-
oner in chains for twenty years, with
| MS parents his jailers, Is said to be
the strange experience OF an insane
man who was received as patient at
the Dixmont asylum here Monday
night from Indiana, Pa While the
authorities OF the asylum win not d.
vulge the mans name, they admit
!, that he was shipped to them IN
rough pine box from hfs home In y
diana county. The patient was g
companied by q county ofIicer nd
physician. When removed from the
box, ii Is said, the man, who was
bound with ropes, was almost ex-
hausted.
Unable to Tell His Age.
DE-. H. A. Hutchinson, superintend-
ent OF the asylum, says that the
man made IL almost impossible to tell
his age. His hair and beard we're
more than foot long; he wore no
clothing, and resembled wild ami
NAL more than a human being.
According to the story related to
DIR. Hutchinson by the county Official
and physician accompanying the pa.
tient, the unknown man has been in
sane twenty years. His condition was
kept q secret by his parents. who
feared IL It became known their son
might be taken aWay from them. The
father, clinging to the hope that his
son might regain his mental balance,
but compelled to protect his family
Iit is alleged, Shackled his son With
chains and fastened him securely to
the wall Of room in an obscure pof-
ton of the house In that room, IL
is attested, the youth grew TO man
hood.
Secret Out When Father Dies.
The secret was carefully guarded
by every member of the family and
Gid not leak out until day or two
ago, when the father died. AS socl
as the county authorities learned tho
state OF affairs they took charge OF
the demented man. The emergency
of caring for a demehted person has
rarely arisen in Indiana county and
the commissioners, it is alleged, were
in quandary as to how they would
take their charge to the asylum. The
only method known to them, It Is as
serted, was the method in vogue fifty
years ago-shipment in q pine box
This Is the explanation given, it Is
said, for the queer manner IN which
the demented man was brought TO
the asylum.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 24-The
toboggan could be placed under the
high cost of living by taking advan-
tage of the unlimited quantity, of ed
ible seaweed washed up on the Cali
fornia coast, according to Miss Jo-
sephine E. Tilden, professor of bot
any and algology at the University of
Minnesota, now in San Francisco.
Miss Tilden, who although next to
the head of her department in the
university, scorns the title of pro-
fessOr and declines to receive even
the degree of doctor of philosophy.
will sail today on the steamer Manuka
for Sydney, Aus, and other points in
the South Seas, including New Zealand
and Tahiti.
The party includes besides Miss
Tilden and her mother, Mrs. Henry
E. Tilden, two junior students of the
University of Minnesota, Stafford King
and Frederick Tryon, who are special
i7ing in botany and algology. The
party will study the botanical and
manufacturing possibilities of the
South Sea Islands.
"Algae glace," KEEP SOUP" or any
other euphonious designations for
dishes derived from the humble sea
weed, might serve to pOpularize this
source of food supply, Miss Tilden
believes. She points out that the ben
ef1ts received would be twofold, wild,
ening the variety of foods and intro
ducing food source which could not
be cornered and which would furnish
wholesome and inexpensive edibles.
The occidental nations are behind
in this regard" explained Miss Tilden
last night Japan for example, has
reared a sturdy fighting nation which
shows exceptional capabilities for sci
entific advancement, on a diet con-
sisting largely of seaweeds Japanese
Chinese and many other nations have
made dainty and healthful dishes from
the plants of the sea.
The properties which make beef or
ell classes Of vegetables valuable are
found also in seaWeeds. Yet with all
our study of the high cost of living.
this vital, potential food supply has
been totally ignored.

George Freeth, Former Homo
IuIan, Is Busy with
Redondo NymphS

/ REDONDO BEACH, July 13.-The
! exciting Hawaiian sport, surf-board
riding, so easy for the native Hawai-
! ian, and so difficult for the American,
| has been taken up by some of the sum-
me7 girls here, and judging by their
perseverance they mean to master
| the feat or Gle il TIE attempt. These
girls are probably the only women in
| the country who ride the surf board,
| and but few men have learned the art
of handling the board.
Miss Dolly Mings, Miss Birdene
jackson and Mrs. Hattie Whitney are
the young women, and may be seen
almost any morning learning the
tricks of the sport under the instruc-
ton of George Freeth, the Hawaiian
swimming instructor.
Miss Packson, a pretty blonde, who
came here recently from San Fran
cisco, describes the surf-board riding
as the best sport" she knows Of. She
says you feel just as though you
were riding through the air in az air
craft when you ride in on the break
ers."
Miss Packson has been swimming
but three months, but in that time
has learned to do no end of things
In the swimming line. She swims
we'll, does high and fancy diving and
has become adept at swinging through
the air on the rings in the plunge, a
feat of which she is most proud, as
she is the only girl among the swim
mers who does this.
Miss Mings, who holds the Pacific
Coast and Southern California wom-
ar's championship for fifty yards, is
the best and strongest swimmer here
and her fancy diving is equailed ty
none of the other swimmers. Surf
board riding.is the latest accomplish
ment acquired by this attractive lit
tie swimmer who keeps up her swim
ming winter and summer. "
Mrs. Whitney has so far proven the
most expert with the surf board, as
she has given the most time'to it. All
CT the girls agree that the sport is
difficult to learn, but very delightful.
Requires Nerve.
George Freeth, the instructor, says:
"Surf-board riding, requires unlimited
nerve, and is much like mastering
bucking broncho. You never know just
what will happen. But the only really
difficult or dangerous thing about it is
when you attempt to ride the board
standing, after the manner of the Ha-
waiians." :<
When you hear Freeth describe
how to ride a surf board you feel as
tEorgh you could do it, whether you
are swimmer Of not, but the girls
who have tried it say it is quite diff
ferent when lying on the board. which,
appears to be determined to- throw
one.3 <..
At any rate, here are Freeth's meth
DDS as rescrfbed by him: First, when
leaving the beach you carry the board
until beyond you depth, but hold the
board off to one side, headed into the
breakers, otherwise the breaker may
catch the board and send you sprawl
ing: Second, lie fiat on the board with
the feet just hooking over the end
and paddle with the arms as if they
were oars. At the ame time balance
the board by pressing down with the
chest on whichever side the board
should be directed. Third, start to
paddle about twenty feet from the
breaker, and keep padding until you
