She was unable at first to prevail

take up the search again. Within

Work Of the Scientists.

Referring 10 glass MIR. kellaway
said:
"The problem facing the government
is, first, TO discover the formula of
glasses, and having discovered it, to
establish the industry. It is fortunate
that in this crisis we have available
few scientific men who have been
working FOR years almost without rec
OgnitiOn, and we have also institutes
snCh as the imperial college at South
kensington and the National Physical
laboratory at Teddington. The gov
eminent went to these men and asked
them to discover the formula used by
the Germans in their production Of
optical aud chemical glass.
"ThcSe British scientists, after few
weeks experiments. discovered many
of the formulate, and it then became
possible to begin manufacture on
commercial scale. The result was that
within Il year after the outbreak of
war the output Of optical glass IN this
country was multiplied four and a half
times. 1t has now increased 10 four
teen times the output previous to the
war. and there is good ground for say
ing that by the end of the year it will
have multiplied twcntyfOld.

The building will be hurried to coz

65-P0UND TURTLE
BROUGHT TO CAPE

Giant sheIlhack Ftom
Current River.

Arthur Steck brought a 65-pound
turtle to the Cape yesterday morning,
on his arrival from the southern part
of hte State. Mr.. Steck, who is a
brakeman on the Frisco Railroad.
bought the turtle from a fisherman
who caught it in the current river.
The tortoise, which was very much
alive, was brought to the Cape in a
boxcar, its legs being chained to the
wall. 1t was hauled to the saloon
of John Herbst at Good Hope and
Frederick streets, where it will be re-
duced to soup tomorrow.
The big shellback, who had lost its
pleasant disposition by the boxcar ride
to the Cape, was hankering for battle
when it was urloaded at Good Hspe
and Frederick. When the time came
for the execution, volunteers were ask
ed for. After some persuasion, Boas
Frissell agreed to assist John Herbst
in preparing the turtle for soup.
As soon as tortoise saw
AS soon as the tortoise saw Herbst,
it opened its mouth and attempted to
clip off one Of the ssloonman's lever
extremities. but he got away. While
the turtle Was chasing "Hoppy," Boas
Frissell seized an ak and struck 1t just
back Of the head, which stunned the
monster and before It could regain its
equilibrium, its head was chopped off.
The amphibian vas shorn Of its
shell, claws and hide, and when the
butchering had been concluded and all
but good wholesome meat had been re-
moved. it weighed more than so
pounds. The turtle will be cooked To-
night and soup will be served at the
HerbSt bar all day tomorrow. 1t Is
said that the turtle will produce more
than 30 gallons Of soup.

to obtain a pair Of swans. Mr.. Loef-
fel has been writing 20 several deal
ers in the East trying to locate suit
able pair of swans, but has been un-
able to obtain the birds yet.
"I'll get them, though" he said, "if

Londou.-The enormous stride made
by Great Britain toward solving the
problem of munitions was made CIeal
in the course of a speech recently de-
livered by f. Kellaway, parliamentary
secretary TO Doctor Addison (parlia-
mentary secretary to the ministry OF
munitions). Mr.. Kellaway said the
most prominent fact of the war was
that the price of victory was unlimited
munitions.
1.-THE British army in early days,
he said, was so out-munitiOned that
the British soldier ought 10 have been
beaten before the fighting began. But
he proved that he was better fighting
man than the German. What he lacked
in munitions he made up in devil, ID
initiative, and in endurance.
81 do not think anything that Ger.
many has ever done equals the work
this country has accomplished in the
way of industrial organization during
the last twelve months. Great Britain.
which has throughout been the treas
ury of the allies, has now become their
armory. There are now scattered up
and down the country some 1000 con
troIled firms producing munitions of
war.
The vast majority of these previous
10 the war never produced a gun,
shell or cartridge: yet in ten months
the ministry Of munitions has obtained
from these firms a number of shells
greater than the total production of all
the government arsenals and great
armament shops in existence at the
commencement of the war.
Increase OF ArsenaIs.
Speaking in the house of commons
last year Mr.. Lloyd-George startled the
country by saying that eleven new ar
senals had been provided. Today, not
eleven but ninety arsenalS have been
built or adapted. Our weekly output
OF 1903 cartridge Is greater by millions
than our annual output before the war.
There is a certain machine gun being
produced by the hundred every week
In n factory ordered. planned anu puE
during the past twelve mouths. The
output of guns and hOwitzers has t.
creased by several hundred per cent.
I'VE are not yet at the full flood OF
our output of guns and shell. If the
Germans cannot be driven home other
wise, our army will have such supply
of guns that the Iimbers will touch
each other in continuous line from
the SOmme TO the sea. France, Rus
STA and Italy have been supplied by
or through Great Britain with many
of the most important munitions of
war. Many thousands of tons of steel
have been and are being sent to
France.
Our contribution toward the equip
ment of the Belgian army has been
continuous, and the Serbian army has
been re-equipped and restored to
magnificent fighting force very largely
by the workshops and workers of the
United Kingdom.
The labor situation has been to
considerable extent saved INV "',- -..,n'-

THE CRUEL. GERMANS

Capt. Robert L. Gray, r.,
American Consul at Hanover
tells of the treatment of prison.
ers in Germany. He says: THE
food ISSUED to the prisoners is
about The same as that obtained
by the soldiers in the field, but
not the same quantity. For
breakfast they receive coffee and
the black German bread, which
for a time was made out Of a
mixture of potato and rye flour.
The English. French and Bel
:ian prisoners find it rather hard
to negotiate this bread, but the
Russians have no word of COM
plant to make, and appear to be
contented with life as 1t comes.
For dinner they have soup,
flesh and potatoes and sometimes
fruit compete in the after.
noon tea or coffee is served,
while for supper they have bread,
cold meats. wursts Of some kind,
with coffee, tea or cocoa.
A Confederate officer who
spent many months on Johnson s
Island. which was prison in
tended for officers alone and
which was claimed to be the best
Federal prison, gives the follow
ing as their menu
In the morning they received
a small piece of beef or smaller
piece of bacon, some times a
slice of cod fish in lieu of meat,
and about IA ounces of bread S
a days rations. The meat was
boiled at noon and the meal con-
sisted of the water in which the
meat was boiled and very thin
slice of bread, usually about on =
eighth of an inch, in thickness ;
for supper water alone for
breakfast a hash made of the
bread and meat.
Many of the prisoners supple
mented these rations with rats
that they were able to kill. 1t
was said that some of the pris-
oners ate candles, but this they
kept secret for fear that they
would not be permitted to buy
them. as the sutler was not per-
mitted to sell food of any kind.
No coffee or tea was given them.
To receive a box from a friend
the prisoner was examined by a
federal surgeon, if found to be in
good health, in the opinion of
the surgeon, he was refused and
if the box had arrived it was
conflscated.
One prisoner with whom lie
was intimate and who is now
prominent citizen of Baltimore,
would eat his ratious, as soon as
lie could prepare them at one
meal, and OH Saturdays would
eat his two days rations at once,
and would have nothing to eat
until Monday at noon.
Flour sold outside of the pris-
on at $1,000 per barrel. Occa-
sionally prisoner by some
means, obtained some -four, aud
he would sell 20 his special
friends small quantity at Sl.25
per pound. Federal currency. He
says that he ate some for which
that price was paid.
