FREEZING URGED
PROLONC LIFE
French Biologist Claims He
Can Make Humans Beat
Methuselah.

PARIS, March 2s.-Packing one
self in ice may soon become the
favorite indoor sport. That is, II
experiments undertaken by Castor
Dauville. French biologist. succeed.
He claims that by a freezing proc
ess. somewhat similar to that used
in conserving certain fish, the span
OF human life can be indefinitely
extended.
NJ Dauville points out that the
late Prof. jacques Loeb demon
strated in America that he could
prolong the life Of sea urchins 1000
times. He says that by renewing
the vital substance on which human
life depends and then subjecting the
living body to his special freezing
process II may be possible to eclipse
Mr.. Methuselah's longevity record
of $50 years.
The beauty OF his process lies In
the fact that. while you grow older
in years, chemical treatment pre-
vents your tissues from degenerat-
ing.
DR.. Voronon's monkey glands.
Steinbach's theory. and old Ponce
de Icons famous unfound formula
for the elixir of youth all will be
side-tracked by his process. N.

matter of the Irishman the Ameri-
can Is not to be deceived. 1t is not
merely true to say that he knows
better. 1t is equally true to say
that he knows worse. He knows
vices and evils in the Irishman that
are entirely hidden in the hazy Wis
ion of the Englishman. He knows
that our unreal ISLANDERS are incon-
sistent even with the real sins. To
us ireland is shadowy isle of
sunset like Atlantis, about which
we make up legends. To him 1t Is
a ward of parish in the heart of
lis huge cities, like Whitechapel,
about which even we cannot make
legends, but only lies. And, as
have said, there are some lies we
do not tell. even about Whitechapel.
Nation Of Power.
The first thing for any honest
Englishman to send across the sea
is this: That the English have not
the shadow Of a notion of what they
are up against in America. They
have never even heard of the bat
teries of almost brutal energy, of
which I had thus touched live wire
even before ! landed. People talk
about the hypocrisy OF England in
dealing with a small nationality.
What strikes me is the stupidity Of
England in supposing that she Is
dealing with a small nationality,
when she Is really dealing with a
very large nationality. She is deal
ing with a nationality that often
threatens to dominate all the other
nationaiities of the United States.
The Irish are not decaying; they
are not impractical: they are scarce
ly even scattered; they are not even
poor. They are the most powerful
and practical world-combination
with whom we can decide to be
friends or foes; and that is why I
thought first of that still and solid
brown house in Buckinghamshire
standing back in the shadow of the
trees.

Mars Too Afectiondte
To Be Wmlike, Is Claim

It's all wrong to assign only
war-like attributes TO Mars, say
British astronomers. in a cable
dispatch from London. That planet
IL far too affectionAte for little
Phobos. the three-mile in diameter
Martian moon.
They calculate msthematically
that Phobos cannot continue 10 re-
sist the tremendous tidal strain
which Mars is eNerting upon il.
Some savants predict that II will
fall TO p!s~~s and the fragments
either plunge down upon the sur
face OF Mars from their 5000 mile
height. or continue TO revolve
around the planet in separate
orbits.

Helas Drudge, II Charge.
After praising the qualifications
OF Gen. Wood in a statement Issued
yesterday the Philippine mission
says:
In the case of Mr.. Forbes. the
situation assumes an aspect total
ly different. He knows that his ad-
ministration in the Philippines, al
though lsuded by American resi-
dents there. has not received the
plaudits that Mr.. Harrison's admin
istration received from the 1o.5oo.-
600 Filipinos. II is also a matter
OF common knowledge that he felt
sighted when he was made to re-
sign as governor on the advent OF
the Wilson regime. He had II in
for all the persons responsible for
his exit. one of whom Is a prom
inent Filipino leader. There is rea-
son to believe that unto this day
he harbors grudge.
Forbes of Taft school.
Besides. being a member of the
Taft school whose undertaking gra-
tuitous hypothesis has always been
that the Filipinos are not At for in
dependence Mr. Forbes has re-
peatedly gone on record against
Philippine independence: at least.
he Is for II at time so remote
that ii makes his position one in no
degree removed from perpetual re-
tention.
There is this other thing to be
considered: Mr.. Taft wants Mr..
Forbes to be governor general
again for at least a year. and Mr..
Forbes may be interested in the
