the first notice was printed of the

auctions of stock each day at noon,

COMES OF ANCIENT FAMILY
Danish Minister to Iceland Traces
origin to First White Man Born
In America.

Information has been received from
Copenhagen that the Danish consul
general in London. ]. Il. Boeggild, has
been appointed Danish minister to Ice
land. Mr.. Boeggild is widely known
In America, having been Danish con-
sui In San Francisco and Chicago,
consul l-general In New York and com
mercial adviser to the Danish legation
10 Washington.
Mr. Boeggid seems especially fitted
for this post, as be has Icelandic blood
in his veins. On the maternal side he
is descended from the Tullnlus family
of Iceland, which traces its origin back
TO Thorfinn Karlsefnl one Of the ia.
nous Norsemen who discovered Amer
lea nearly one thousand years ago.
KarlsefnI. Of whom a statue was re-
Gently erected In Philadelphia, was the
first white man to settle in America,
spending two years in "Wlneland,"
where his wife. Gutrld. gave birth TO a
boy, who was called Snorri. From
Snorri descended numerous and dis
tinguished lineage among whom Is
numbered the TulInius family. and the
new minister to Iceland can thus lay
claim of being descended from the
first white man born In America.-De-

years past the use Of oil fuel has been
common In the British navy for pro-
pulsion purposes, but its employment
for cooking Is quite an innovation.
The galley referred TO is capable Of
cooking for 1,200 men. The heat is
obtained by means of special burners.

compressed air being used to atomize
the fuel. The result is white flame

vantage in cooking by means of oil
and there is no chance Of the food

The most important scientific In

country has probably been the at
tempt to measure the earth's crust.
We know very little about the shell
on which we live. Scientists have
been studying the problem In Hawaii,
Tuscany and Salvador, where the op-
portunitles for investigation are espe-
cially favorable. Many data new to
science have been collected concern
ing the shell It's composition and prob
able age. Srill other tests have been
made In New South Wales, where n
great reservoir concentrates an i'm
mense weight of water on a limited
area, and Instruments have been de-
vised TO measure the movement OF the
earth's crust under this weight. New
light has tllus been thrown ON the ac-
tion of volcanoes.

MAKE SKlLLFUL AUTO DRIVERS
African Natives Conduct Vehicles
Along Jungle Tracks After Short
Term OF Apprenticeship.

II is natural that since automobiles
have found their way into every part
Of the world, the drivers would vary
In appearance and In attire or lack OF
attire, according to the customs Of the
countries In which the motor car Is
called to do service. II you were to
walk along the road leading from the
west coast of equatorial Africa several
hundred miles into the interior, for
Instance, you might see motor truck,
plowing through the jungle, and In
the chauffeur's seat driving with Pc
cullar and cheerful abandon, would be
a west African native. And from the
appearance of his drivers uniform, II
would be evident that the high cost
OF clothing would bother him not one
whit. These natives become full
fledged chauffeurs within three or four
weeks from the time they see their
first motor vehicle. The trucks, Of
which there are about 200, maintain
regular schedules as feeders to large
steamship line plying between west
African ports and Europe and Amer
lea. They are loaded with men and
supplies on the inland trips, and with
cocoa products. palm oil, hides, and
rubber bound for the coast.

Parasite Spreads Disease.

A peculiar disease that Is still con-
fined chiefly to certain river valleys Of
Japan, but suggests possibilities Of
breaking loose as a widespread cpl
demic. has been subject of recent In
vestigatlon. 1t Is known as "tsut-
sugamushi," and is transmitted by the
"akamushi," an insect parasite Of GER
tain field mice. 1t is fever striking
ly similar to typhus and Rocky mount
ain spotted fevers. The Investigators
have learned that Its chief occurrence
is in the months of June to October.
which Is the time of development of
the insect carriers, and the season
when the peasant victims Of the dis
ease are brought into contact with
the mice. The mortality, though very
variable. sometimes exceeds 80 per
cent Under existing conditions, bites
by the insects cannot be wholly
avoided, and cutting out the bitten
part does not prevent the spread Of
the virus, while such remedies as
iodine. mercury, arsenic, quinine and
dyes have proven ineffective. The
only hope of stamping out the disease
seems TO rest in the determination Of
the field mice.

historic background against which the
modern Islands can display their prod

Magellan was not seeking new lands
for Spain. He set out to find a pas

that Balboa had seen some years
earlier on the other side of the con-
tinent, and having passed through the
straits of Magellan, he believed that
he was steering for the Moluccas, or
Spice Islands. And so, incidentally,
he found the Philippines.
