Navy Also Reported

WASHINGTON, Oct. lS.-OficiaI
diplomatic dispatches received here to-
day reyOrt mutinies in the Austrian
navy and clashes between Austrian
sailors and crews of the German SUBJ
marine fleet based at Pola, in which
officers on both sides have been killed
and which resulted in a decision to-
change the base of the German fiotilla
Despite the attempts of the Austrian
admiralty to suppress the news, it
reached here today. coming by way of
Berne. The Austrian crews are said to
have revolted under i'll treatment of of
ficers and bad food, while the clash
with the German submarine crews was
caused by the overbearing conduct of the
latter.
The dispatches say the tension be-
tween the Austrian and German crews
became so alarming that extraordinary
measures were taken to prevent a recur-
renee of the fighting between them,
which included the decision to move the
German submarine flotilla from the
Austrian base at Pola to another point
further south on the Adriatic. The fight
ing between the two sets of crews is
described as having been sanguina-y.
This news of mutiny in the Austrian,

naval officers that it probably was due

of comrades who go out never to be-
heard of again was expected to under

Clashes between German and Austrian

as of much significance, particularly

WAY TO USE TWO THREADS
Frequently Will Greatly Improve APP.
pearance of Embroidery, but II
Must Be Carefully Handled.

1t is frequently the case that two
threads of embroidery cotton can be
used in the needle with better results
than a single thread. An embroiderer
must understand, however, when it is
expedient to substitute the two for
one. Very often by resorting to the
double thread an embroiderer can give
her work richness which would be
lacking otherwise.
The texture Of the fabric and the
delicacy of the design will determine
whether the double or single thread
should be used. For instance, double
thread can be appropriately used when
the figure TO be embroidered is large
or the material heavy. Shading-in
should be done with a single thread.
When a delicate flower is TO be en-
broidered a single thread should be
used.
Should occasion demand a double
thread, do not double a single strand
in the needle, as the twist will run in
opposite directions and cause the silk
to be roughened. The correct way is
to pull two strands out of the skeins
| together. The needle should then be
threaded with the two.

SOULS ENTRANCE INTO BODY
Matter Over Which TheoIogians Have
Differed Since the First Time a
Theory Was Advanced.

DR.. Austin O'Malley of New York
has just revived the ancient discus
sion concerning the moment the hui
man soul enters the body In an ar
ticle in America he contrasts the two
opposite theories: ID That of Aris-
totle, that the soul is infused about
the fortieth day, TO which St Thomas
AqlinaS, st. AnSelm, ST. AlphOnSus
Liguori and most Of the medieval NOR
alistS and theolOgianS adhered. (2)
That the entrance of the soul is stimuli
taneOus with the fusion of the single
nuclei in the two parental germ cells,
10 which most modern embryologistS,
physicians and moralists give their
adhesion.
Cardinal MERCER and some other
great theOlogians cling TO the Aristotle
liam theory today, basing their belief
on the idea that not until the body
takes actual human form is the
breath of life" breathed into it and it
becomes "a living SOUL"
But Doctor O'Malley and the embry-
Ologists hold that the earliest embryo
rs a human being, therefore a body
with human soul.

SCIENCE AND WAR A UNIT
Members Of French Military Expedition
in Balkans Are Devoting Much
Time to Both.

The French military expedition in
the Balkans, following the example Of
the armies Of Napoleon and Marshal
MaisOn in carefully preserving and
classifying all objects of archaeological
interest discovered by the troops, has
gathered data that ii is thought will
throw much light on the primitive his
tory of Macedonia.
Objects unearthed in trench digging
at the front in Macedonia and in the
construction of field works in the in
trenched camp are assembled at Sa-
loniki all duly labeled, with full de-
tails of their discovery.
Organized research is being done so
far as circumstances permit. Three
flying columns have been sent to cover
particularly interesting regions to
make sOundings with view to the
preparation of archaeological charts or
maps.
These columns have already collect
ed information of inestimable value,
with specimens of poetry, fragments of
ceramics, with data as TO the depth at
which they were discovered.

Racial Differences.

A new idea is that races of men may
be differentiated chemically, just as
they are separated by easily seen ply
steal or anatomical pecularitieS of
makeup, hair, skin, etc. In the blood
of Germans a count of 100000 white
cOrpuScleS per cubic millimeter has
been made, while similar count in the
blood of French has shown an average
of 100000; and it is believed that
other racial differences quite as notable
will be revealed when wide compara-
tive study shall have been made. The
study as suggested would include the
density Of organs, viscosity of the
blood, and the general chemical rela-
tons of the various parts of the body.
1t is pointed out that the results might
clear up the mystery of the immunity
OF certain races TO certain diseases, ex-
plain the cat-and-dOg antipathies of
same races, and show us why certain
instincts and appetites are so persist
ent in various people. Doctor Barillon
foreseeS that the chemical test of races
would even greatly aid in shaping inn
migration and marriage laws.

War on Mosquitoes.

The New Jersey Mosquito Extermin-

lature Of that state TO appropriate $780,

fare on mosquitoes. This sum will be
supplementary to funds provided by
counties, cities and towns in the state
for the same purpose. Part of the
work consists in drainage of extensive
salt marshes, filling in lowlands, study
ing the habits of the insects. oiling
pools, etc. 1t is expected that in the
course Of the campaign more than 200.-
600 acres of now useless land where
the insects propagate will be redeemed
and made agriculturally available.
