Accidental invAntiahs.

The Hhcients believed that there was
b certain kind of mineral substance In
existence by means Of which all the
common metals could be turned into
gold. This supposed substance was
called the philosophers stone, and the
alchemists of classic times and during
the middle ages spent much time and
labor in search of this wonderful sub
stance.
OF course. since nothing Of the kind
ever existed, it was never found. but 1t
is worth remembering that some Of the
most notable inventions were discover
ed in this wide search. 1t was In look
ing for the philosophers stone that the
German chemist, Botticher. stumbled
upon the secret Of making the beauti-
full Dresden porcelain. Roger Bacon,

Voices of Animals.

There Is a chapter In the natural his
tory Of animals that has hardly been
touched upon as yet and that will be
especially interesting with reference to
families. The voices of animals have
a family character not to be mis-
taken. All the canidae bark and howl

same kind of utterances, though on a
somewhat different pitch. All the
bears growl, from the white bear to
the small black bear Of the Andes
All the cats meow, from our quiet fire.

and panthers Of the forest and Jungle.
This last may seem a strange asser-
ton, but to any one who has listened
critically to their sounds and analysed
their voices the roar of the lion is but
gigantic meow, bearing about the
same proportion to that of cat as its
stately and majestic form does to the
smaller, softer. more peaceful aspect
of the cat-Agassiz.

''THE FAILURE" RING
JOHN EMERSON AT THE RE
GENT TODAY ONLY

THE Failure" a glowing drema of
newspaper and theatrical life, featur-
ing John Emerson at the Regent to-
day only.
A clever newspaper reporter learns
that a certain powerful theatrical
manager is moral leper and respon-
sible for the ruin of a young girls
dramatic career. He makes an in
vestigation, writes the story and takes
it to the city editor of his newspaper
who happens to be a friend of the
theatrical man and who promptly sup
presses it, The reporter then goes to
the owner of the paper and-for the
protection of stage-struck girls-in-
duces him to publish the story. The
result of the expose is to drive the
theatrical magnate out of the country
in disgrace. After a long absence he
returns and when the opportunity
comes, he has the reporter arrested
on a "frame-up" charge and the lat
ter is convicted and sent to the peni-
tentiary. One day, after an impris-
onment of several years, he escapes,
and finding the body of a suicide,
dresses it in his convict uniform and
sends it floating down the river. The

Longacre Theater in New York, will
be seen for a return engagement at
the Orpheum next Wednesday matinee

which is unfolded partly in song and
partly in rollicking comedy and the
attractive settings in which the scenes
are laid, set this gem of the theater
apart from the average run of musi-
