STATUE PUZZLES WISE MEN
English Scientists Unable to Place
Stone Figure Which Graces Hall
OF Westminster.

The lions of Westminster are legion,
some in the flesh and others in stone
or marble; recently there has been
an addition to the menagerie, around
which there is an agreeable halo of
mystery,
In a gloomy niche half way down
Westminster hall there is dinly to be
deserted gray stone statue of a king
which has just been taken out of the
Architectural museum and perched
aloft. There is a heavy crown on his
head over long flowing hair. the beard
is rippled. and majestic. In his left
hand he holds the orb, but the scepter
hand is gone. The old king broods
over the hall of kings.
The experts are puzzled over his
history. He stood in Westminster
hall for many centuries side by side
with other stone kings and all were
tidied away by the government In
1856. Recently it occurred to Lord
Beauchamp to try the effect OF bring
ing them back. Several of the beauti-
tul Gothic windows are blind, forming
inches suitable for statues, and all
the old forgotten kings may take their
places in them.
This first one is beautiful person
age. No one knows what king he is
or whether it is merely an ideal figure
of majesty, but it is certain that he
is the work of some fine fourteenth
century craftsman.
The battered king is the grandest
statue in the hall Below him lie in
ghostly row the kings done with the
petty realism of the modern age; Inn
mediately under his blind ma1esty's
gaze is the broad face, cynically fur
rowed of the merry monarch. The un-
known king towers over these people
like a visitant from ampler times

why rhunder sours MIX.

1t is universally known that milk
turns sour after thunder storm. This
has been attributed to the large quan-
tity OF ozone which is liberated by the
electricity In the air. The experiments
of Professor Trillat in Paris do not
confirm that theory. He has estab'
lished that atmospheric depressions
cause putrefying gases-normal qui-
escent--to rise to the surface of Ger.
tain substances, and in support of his
theory points out that odors of all
sorts are more permeating after
storms. These atmospheric depres
sions accelerate the decomposition OF
gases and tend to hberate them
Hence Tactic ferment is produced
Professor Trillat has made many ex
periments with diverse substances un
der varying pressures and has OBJ
served that when the barometer IL
lowest during storms. etc., the de-
composition of gases is most rapid
