There is now resting in the safe de-
post vault of the Second National
bank of frankfort. suburb of Phila-
delphia, metal vessel which the own
ers assert is the Holy Grail, or the cup
actually used by Christ at the Last
Supper. The cup is composed of gold.
silver, brass and iron. The surface Is
coated with palladium, and the ma
terial Is as hard as steel. Four enam-
eled bands or rings encircle the cup
and the outside surface is filled with
symbolic figures.
The relic is In the care OF the execu-
tors of the estate of the late Edward
Biddle Latch. of the United States
navy. Mr.. Latch believed that the
Holy Grail was a cup within cup,
and was of the opinion that the hid
den surface of the inner cup of the
vessel now In frankfort is covered
with symbols of rare historic value.
Speaking on this phase of the subject,
he said that the separation of the cups
would be a matter of much difficulty
and that it was also inexpedient. Mr..
Latch obtained the cup for an insig-
nificant sum through beggar or tramp
who said he had picked it up by the
roadside.

Goes Under Water Amid Sharks
to Fix Propeller.
Boards Up a Hole Made in Boat by
Storm In the Gulf of Mexico and
Enables British Vessel to
Reach Its Port.

San Francisco-Oneo of the most re-
markable feats ever performed by a
diver is related by the offices and
crew Of the British sloop of war
Shearwater, which is undergoing re-
pairs at the Union Iron works. J. P.
Lingane. a young Irish shipwright,
boarded up the propeller well while
the vessel was rolling in heavy seas
and so enabled her to make the voy-
age to this port.
The Shearwater was cruising off the
coast of Mexico when in storm she
lost her propeller. Resort was imme-
diately had to her sails, but 1t was
found that steering was almost i'm
possible, because the big arch or well
under the stern in which the propeller
had revolved made the rudder's work
Intellectual The officers decided that
If they were to bring the ship to port
this well must be boarded up.
Lingane was sent down to do the
work Though hampered by his heavy
diving suit and by the weight of wa
ter, he was able to adjust himself to
the bad rolling of the ship and to
handle the heavy timbers that were
passed to him. He fastened the boards
so securely that they had only shifted

CUPS WORTH A FORTUNE

Romantic as are the associations of
historic plate with the life of the past,
there Is scarcely less romance asso-
ciated with the battles fought over
old cups and spoons and salts when
they make their appearance in the
salesroom. Perhaps there is no more
amazing example than the pair OF
ton of Boston. England. in the year
1882. The silversmith who wrought
them, cunning man of his hands, got
no more than 500 for the work. Two
hundred and fifty-fiye years later the
corporation, doubtless in fit of pri-
vate madness, sold them for the paltry
sum of 10 guineas. Five years ago they
fetched $4,000 (about S14,500).
commentary sufficiently incisive on
the prophetic insight of Boston's city
fathers. One is permitted to guess
what would be the state of mind OF
the silversmith If he could know that
his standing cups had been sold for
a. sum representing 140 times the
amount he was paid for them
The story of the famous piece
known as the Blacksmith's cup is
hardly less astonishing. What 1t cost
originally cannot be told. but In 1862
1t fetched 1856, a decade later it had
sprung to $1.75O, in 1890 it was sold
for $2,675 and last year reached the
enormous figure of $4,000.
Not long AGO silver fukSfaud Of
the year 1880 was sold for $500 an
ounce, while Mr.. Holms. a Glasgow
man with singularly choice collec-
ton. has given $1,000 an ounce for
font-shaped cup of the sixteenth CEN
fury. In 1903 set of thirteen Apostle
spoons brought $24,500, while another
set Of eleven only was recently bought
for more than 80 times the amount 1t
had fetched in 1856.

FRAUD POSED AS A SAINT

A man named Bursy and venerated
In upper 6ilesia as a prophet and saint
has been arrested on a charge of a
long succession of frauds. He is a
person of humble origin, with a disin-
clination to work. who managed to
persuade the country people that he
was endowed with supernatural pow
ers and could foretell the future.
From all parts of Silesia pilgrims
came for his aid and advice. and he
received them in room adorned with
religious pictures and fragrant with
incense burning in dimly lit lamps
Sometimes hundred persons visited
him in a single day.
His fees and gratuities brought him
an annual income of $500. and he
might still have been in the receipt of
this competency had 1t not been for
the outcry made by poor widow.
from whom he tried to extort $50, for
which he guaranteed to rescue her
late husband from the sufferings he
was supposed to be enduring in the
other world.
The woman made great effort to
raise the money, and the story came
to the police, who promptly arrested
the swindler.

New York Woman Chooses Odd
Profession.
Receives Calls and Makes Visits Like
Any Physician, With All Book
Lovers as ClienteIe-At-
tends Great Libraries.

New York.-Miss Janet C. Lewis
has taken up work which, in all
probability, is the most novel profes-
sion In the country. She is a book
doctor. That is literal, for she re-
ceives her calls and attends her pa
tents in much the same fashion as
any other doctor. The diseases to
which she ministers are various, and
only too well known to librarians who
have to deal with old and valuable
books The chief OF these is dry rot
or disintegration. due to various
causes.
The use Of sulphuric acid in tan
ming, may be an excellent preventive
for worms, but. on the other hand
leather so treated soon loses its natur-
al OIL
The present conditions in nearly all
libraries do not tend to preserve old
and valuable bindings. Direct sun
shine is one of the most potent factors
in disintegration, as are also gas and,
to a lesser degree, electricity. The
best way to secure good, fresh ven
tflation and proper supply of light,
while barring the sunlight, Is to have
the windows and globes of the lights
tinted red, green or yellow. Green
gives the best results.
Glass fronts, Miss Lewis says, are
not advisable, since they prevent the
free circulation of air, which is es-
sential for proper ventilation. Elk
cessive dampness is as much to be
Stunned by the librarian as excess of
stacking room.
Miss Lewis uses in her work an old
preparation which Is based on secret
formula willed to her by an old Ger
man librarian, a great friend of hers.

WRESTLING WITH A SNAKE

A thrilling experience was that OF
e. w. Copley, In Dallas. Tx. recently,
when he came to grips with sixteen
feet long boa constructor. Copley had
the snake on exhibition in a museum
and took him over to Oak Cliff suburb
to give him an airing, and to feed him.
He tossed five little chickens to the
snake. which swallowed them whole,
killing them In his gullet by compress
ing his muscles. Then Copley gave
him FIVE eggs. He swallowed them
too. After feeding Copley thought the
snake was quiet and drowsy. so he
and an assistant started to carry him
away on blanket. The assistant
stumbled and dropped his end OF the
blanket. Then the snake woke up,
wrapped himself around Copley's legs
and was preparing to throw its coils
around his body, when Copley seized
the snakes head above the Jaws,
snapped 1t suddenly backward and
broke the neck

USE ENGINE IN THIEF CHASE
Railway Policeman Orders Engineer
70 Pursue Thief and Makes a
Capture After Fight.

Oakland, Cal.-Pressing into serv-
Ice a switch engine, J. J. eO'Connor,
state railway policeman, pursued
burglar along the rails on the Oakland
mole, caught up with the man after
a four blocks chase, engaged him in
a hand to hand encounter and finally
subdued and arrested him. The prfs-
oner is Ed Rensen, and he is in jail
charged with petty larceny.
The capture was made late last
night. O'Connor noticed Rensen and
another man removing about one hum
dred feet OF lead pipe from a freight
car at the Oakland mole. He ordered
the men to halt, but they took to their
heels and ran down the footpath along
the rails. O'Connor followed. but the
mga were too fleet for him.
Seeing that he had no chance OF
capturing them on foot, he ran over
to a train which was being switched
about and ordered the engine driver
to assist him. The train started after
the burglars with O'Connor in the en-
CINE cab. When the engine was
abreast of the fugitives O'Connor
Jumped off. He sought to arrest Rem
sen. but the latter fought. O'Connor
was the stronger in the scuffle and
downed and handcuffed his man. In
the meantime the other man disap-
peared in the darkness.

Brave Diver Saves the Ship

reached this port, even though she had
been battered by heavy seas on the
way. Naval men have given high
praise to the young man for what he
did and special report on it has been
sent to the British admiralty.
A trial to the nerves of the young
diver while he was at work was the
presence of several sharks, which at
times swan close to him. Armed men
on the warship, however, kept them
from attacking him.
