Claim Of French Army Officer.
Paris Says "Tut"

Parts.-COmmandant Darget of the
French army is trying by a further Sc
ries of experiments to convince the
Academy of Medicine of the truth of
his theory that the human body sends
out certain kind of X rays by means
of which ideas in the mind can be pho
tographed.
His idea is that these mental images
can be visualized and then transferred
to a sensitized Photographic plate by
merely pressing the plate against the
body. For his purpose he covers the
sensitized plate with printed matter
puts the plate in an Opaque envelope
and then presses it against the body
In this way he is able, he asserts, to
develop in few minutes a negative
or positive Photographic impression
according as the person is electrically
negative or positive.
The sum total of Darget's theory is
that the human body contains lighl
rays. To this proposition the Acad
emy says Tut, tutH' or words to thai

Washington.-The concentration in

berlands of the United States has ere
ated a problem so grave, in the judg
ment Of Luther COnant, Jr., commits
siOner of corporations, that he recon-
mended to President Taft that the ex-

This note of warning was sounded
by the commissioner in forwarding to
the president the full text of part l

cation of the lumber industry made
by direction of congress. A summary
of this report, showing the extent Of
concentrated control of timberlands,

In the summary previously publish

that the Southern Pacific company is

TO HATCH MEN LIKE CHICKS.
Scientist Says Baby Factories Will

axe the Place OF Parents.
BOston.-That it is possible to create
human life by chemical means and that
a baby factory is not out of the ques-
tiOn for the distant future is asserted
by DR.. Martin Kellog SchermerhOrn of
the department of philosophy in Har-
ward. While speaking before the Meta
physical club he said:
Life is not confined to the animal
and plant world The whole universe
Is alive, and all that lives is conscious.
Animals are conscious and gifted
with the power of thought and imagi-
nation.
plants are conscious, and Ruskin
and Goethe agree they are capable of
exercising strategy and fOrethOught
Even Darwin said plants were sensi-
tive, and hence he must have believed
they were conscious.
1T is obvious that the evolution from
so called matter to human life is pos
sible. The chemist of the future will
labor so that men shall be made in
baby factories as chickens are hatched
in incubators."

Roman Excavator Discovers Reservoir
Under Palace Where Fish Were Bred.
Rome.-PrOfessor Boni, who is super
vising the excavations on the Palatine
hill, has made an important archaeo-
logical discovery. Beneath the basili-
ca of the Flavian palace he found two
narrow stairways. leading to a "pis-
cina," a water reservoir consisting of
five large compartments. 1t is still in,
tact covered and well preserved by
watertight cement
The reservoir dates from the time of
Nero, when it was used as a pond for
sea fish, with the object of breeding
exotic fish for the emperor's table.
That the artificial rearing and hatch
ing of fish were practiced in ancient
Rome is attested by Pliny, who refers
to fish called scarns, found between
Rhodes and Crete, but bred artificially

Pauline has not been in the best OF

Taft believes that if she is taken back
to Wisconsin and put on Senator
Stephenson's farm again her youthful
vigor will revive. The senator was
glad to recover Pauline, as she had
supplied milk to the family of the presi-
dent for two years, and he thought she
would add dignity to his herd.
