COLUMBUS REMAINS
FOR PANAMA EXPO
Charge d'Affaires of DominI-
can Legation Here Is in Fa-
vor of the Suggestion.

Deep interest in the suggestion that
the supposed remains of Christopher
Columbus, now in the Cathedral of SantO
Domingo, Dominican Republic, be taken
through the Panama canal and placed
In the Dominican building at the San
Francisco expedition, was expressed
yesterday by Senior l. "A Cernuda,
charge d'affaires of the Dominican
legation here.
Senior Cernuda, who declared that
there is no doubt but that the remains
at Santo Domingo are those of the dis
Coverer OF America, declared that he
was in favor of the suggestion that
they be taken to the San Francisco ex-
position. He said he did not know what
attitude his government and people
would take but thought they would
be favorable.
This suggestion, which was first
made by Mr.. Osborne, assistant secre-
tary of state, 10 the Dominican min
lister to the United States at Santo
domingo recently. has served to arouse
renewed interest in the claim of the
Dominicans that they have the remains
Of Columbus, and that the remains
taken to Seville. Spain. in 1898, were
really those of Diego, the son of Column
bus
In this connection it is of interest
that the late Thomas G.. Dawson,
formerly United States minister sue
cessiveiy to the Dominican Republic,
Chile, Colombia and Brazil wrote an
article some time ago in which he said
the remains at Santo Domingo were real
" those of Columbus He made this as
sertion after thoroughly examining all

Pan-American Union, in which he re-
viewed all the authorities on the ques-

the remains We're found, and came to the
conclusion that there can be no real

Professor I.augier. a French scieD.
fist. has discovered that the size of the
brain In animals is in exact proper
ton to the size Of the eyes. The big
ger the eyes the bigger the brains.
OF course this only applies to each
class of animal. tiger may have
bigger eyes than man for instance
but 1t doesn't follow that 1t has big
ger brain. But the tiger with big
eyes Is more cunning and brainy than
tiger with small eyes. Professor
Lauger made this remarkable discov-
cry when studying the habits Of the
fish known ms the dorado or gilthead
There are two kinds of dorado. one
pink and the other gray. The gray
fish has much smaller eye than the
pink one. The scientist cut open a
large number Of these fish in his ex-
periments and was struck by the fact
that the large eyed fish always had
the largest brain. He promptly fol-
lowed mp this discovery by testing
other animals He found. ;'r example.
that the little tree frog had much
larger eye than the larger marsh frog
and had also a larger brain He as
serts that the same rule applies among
higher animals.

The Value of Accuracy.

We strive so much to know every
thing that we lose sight of the fact
that accuracy is more important than
knowledge since knowledge that is
misty and fragile Is poor guide. But
1t is not only that what we know
should be true as that the fact that
accuracy is one of the most important
elements Of character Vague ideas
tend to make weak character since
character is only another name for
truth. SO that in the education OF
every man and child accuracy should
be made vital part. One of the tests
for entrance to the Naval academy is,
or was. an addition of column of fig
ures to ascertain the quantity of care
lessness. If any. the applicant has in
his character 1t should be made an
important item in our education to re.
quire accuracy.-Oh State Journal

JOAQUIN Miller In London.

Joaquin Miller is especially felicitous
In his description Of mountains and

though sometimes strained. vivid and
true:
Afar the bright Sierras lie

A fringe of heaven hung In sight
Against the blue base Of the sky.
And this is aptly descriptive of the
ocean foaming on the shore:
The oceans thin and hoary hair
Is trailed along the silvered sands.

Worlds People to Square Mile.
According to the censuses and es-
Inmates made in 1910 the globe con-
tains nearly 2,000,000,000 inhabi-
tants, an average of forty to the
square mile. Leaving out of ac-
count the mountains, the desert and
the ice covered land about the poles,
there must be at least 30,000,0OO
square miles capable of supporting
a dense population, especially with
the aid of modern scientific meth
DDS and modern machinery for the
cultivation of the soil. If the whole
3O,00O,000 square miles could be
made to sustain population as
dense as that of Belgium the earth
would have about 10000 100000
inhabitants. There cannot be the
slightest doubt that the population
of the United States could be in
creased to an average of 200 to the
square mile, making population
for the United States of more than
700, 100000. 1t is probable that
Africa could maintain more than
/ 900, 100000 of people, if it were

is rich enough to have at least 5O0,-
