He Is Not Vet Crowned.

The news that something in the na-
ture of a tentative offer TO the throne
of Albania has been made to Jerome
Napoleon Bonaparte is reminder that
the Bonapartes have long had close
connection with America. This con-
nection began with the Bonaparte who
was made king of Wcstphalia by the
first Napoleon, of whom he was the
Youngest brother. This Jerome Bona
parte settled in the United States after
being exiled from France by his broth
er, and remained until his appoint
ment as king. in 1907. The present
bearer of the name. who has come into
prominence, is q great-grandson Of the
king. and a nephew of Charles ]. Bona
parte, who was attorney general in the
cabinet of President Roosevelt. 1t
would be odd indeed if a plain citi-
zen of democratic America should now
become a European king.

SAVED HER PENCIL SUPPLY
Extremely Masculine Office Force
SHED Off Busy Stenoerapher's
Shade Of Delicate Lavender.

Part Of every morning IN the Busy
Stenographer's life went toward col
lecting her precious pencils from
everybody else's desk. OF course she
never could prove these really were
her OWL. The big fact was that at
the end of the day her supply was
always nil.
Feminine wit met the problem. Of
course the men in her office classed
themselves as very masculine; went
in for striped necktiss and checked
suits. scorned tea rooms for lunch. but
knew every chop house within a
score of blocks-real men stuff, you
know
One morning the Busy Stenographer
came in with 4 new package of pen
els. She sharpened them carefully
and laid them in readiness on her desk.
The day sped by. Her pencils were
borrowed-but returned. From the
far end of the office the Office boy
came during the afternoon. Hey, Miss
Blank, isn't this one CT your pencils?
l thought you might be lookin' fer it,
At the close of the day the supply
was still intact. The color of the
wood was delicately lavender.--Pitts-
burgh Dispatch.

To Take Census of Bees.

A census of the bees in hive has
been made possible by clever de-
vice invented by an employee of the
bureau of entomology.
The invention consists Of gate to
be placed er the entrance to bee
hive with series of telephone mes
sage registers attached in such way
that every time q bee goes through
the gate its passage is recorded. The
device is operated electrically by al
ternating current.
AS about 100000 bees go out during
the day, on honey-gathering expedi-
tions, considerable electrical energy
Is needed to operate the recording
gate, though the amount Of energy ex-
pended by the device each time a bee
passes is infnitesinal.

A phenomenon, as startling and
OF the Society Of Independent Artists
as were the recent ghostly manifesta-
tionS in AntigoniSh 10 the MacDOnaids
and DR.. Walter Franklin Prince, was
revealed at the artists exhibition on
the top floor of the Waldorf.

hammered four tackS in q card which
told that the picture was the work
of Mrs. Emma Mabel Field of tnlcago,
and was called ''ImpreSSi0nistlc Per

"Spooks or no Sp0oks." said A. 5.
Baylinson director and secretary
of the society, that picture has got
to come down. No one gave Mrs. Field
permission TO have it exhibited. and
our walls aren't open for spirits. A
special delivery letter from the artist
10 Mr.. Baylinson, arrived few days
later.
Il am starting FOR home now," her
letter says, land will be under way
before this letter is mailed. And beg
to inform you that have left the mat
ter entirely in the hands of my guide,
who has assured me that my poor
little picture will be exhibited there

Very Painful Dentistry.

Dwight Crittenden claims the dis
tinction of being the first white man
to have a tooth drawn by one of the
colored doctors of the African Trans
vaal. The father of this well-known
actor was mining engineer in Kim
berley. While boy in South Africa
shooting pains indicated that molar
must be extracted, and as Dwight Crit
tenden's fathers mines were situated
far from medical aid, one Of the med
icine men was summoned, and after
performing a fantastic war dance to
the tom-tom, this gentleman extracted
the offending molar with the aid of a
pair of engineers pincers. An anes-
thetic was administered in the form Of
native incense, but Dwight contends
that it only served to intensity the
agony.

Museum of Natural Sciences in New

years ago and abandoned for lack
Of funds, is about to be started in
earnest, the money having been Sc
cured for the work. At that time the
foundations were laid, but when the
expenditure for this had been con-
sumed the work was stopped. The
new wing will be used mainly for the
housing of the marine exhibit Of the
institution, which is very extensive,
but which has heretofore been boxed

DANGER IN BORING FOR OIL
Fluid Frequently Comes With Force
and Suddsnness That Workers
Find Hard to Control.

Fuel oil, as q means Of propulsion,
has been gradually coming into favor
for number Of years The war In
creased lis use in many ways. and the
coal strike gave tilllp that may only
be overcome when the comparative
cost between coal and fuel oil gives
the former the advantage. Boring for
oil Is often accomplished with danger
TO the men from the pent-up force
which Is released. The first indication
that oil has been reached Is rush OF
gas and then comes oil. sometimes
with such terrific force that it has
been known TO carry tools, gear and
loose stones and earth to great
height. Large quantities Of oil are
often lost before a valve can be placed
over the hole and q check put upon
the gusher. SO great is the pressure
it varies from 200 pounds to 1000
pounds-that oil may spout hundreds
Of feet into the air. In Mexico, few
years ago, column OF oil reached
600 measured feet. 1t IS unsuitable
for use when first got out Of the
ground, owing to the mud it contains,
but when this has settled to the bot
tom of the settling tank it is refined.
First petrol and benZine are extracted
by dlstillation before 1t Is sent to the
storage tanks to be used as crude oil.
So far the method which finds most
favor for burning OIL in furnaces is
known as the low pressure furnace,
and is forced through pipes to the
burner under the boiler in the form
Of fine spray.

RAP AT MODERN PREACHERS

Too Well Hidden.

Bishop Collins Denny said IN an
address in Richmond:
II heard a story the other day that
hits a good many preachers. 1t seems
that the janitor Of fashionable
church was showing his wife through
the edifice. At the end Of the inspec-
tion he said to her:
"'Iyould you like to hear me
preachY
"'Go on! You can't preachp she
objected. i
and he went up into the pulpit and
ranted and roared and ragged a good
20 minutes or more about the vile sins
committed daily by the heather in
equatorial Africa,
"Then when ne finished, he said, as
he came down, wiping his hot face:
There; how was that for q ser
mon? a.
1T was mighty fine,' said his wife.
But you told all about the sins Of the
natives away off in Africa and never
a word about the sins of the folks
right here at home
The janitor ~chuckled.
"'Ha! Ha" he said. I know the
tricks of preachin' too well for that !"

Shippina Cases for Rubber.

Der has been introduced into Singa-
pore shipping circles by an American
firm. These reach local exporters in
the form of sheets made of 100 per
cent fiber, the riveting, packing and
wiring being done by the shippers. The
thinness OF the sheets enables the
cases built from them to hold from

ber than the old wooden boxes, and
the sew construction is practically un-
breakable, very cleanly and water.

Pope's White Mule.

The coronation Of Plus NJ, which
took place in Rome, was the last
solemnity completing the election of
@ new pope Prior to the loss Of
temporal power, in 1870, however, the
papal coronation was always preceded
by the cavalcata, or procession IN
state, with which the new pope rode
forth to take formal possession Of the
famous Lateran church. On this oc-
casion only the holy father would be
seen riding a white mule. Plus VIII
first dropped the custom in 1929, by

A decidedly novel use Of a steam
hammer is to make it pull out Of the
ground steel sheet piling that it had
previously driven into it. This was
done recently with some pilin9 that
had become so tightly frozen III that
it could not be pulled cut by the der
rick alone. The steam hammer was
hung upside down from the derrick,
and around the hammer four strands
of three quarter inch cable were siung
so that they carried below the ham

RARE GEMS LOST TO SIGHT
Russian CroMn Jewels Supposed TO
Have Beer Disposed ef in Small!
.Assort.lents.

The great collection of Russian
crown jewels seems likely 20 share
the mysterious fate of the peacock
throne in Delhi. writes Frederic J.
aaskin in the Chicago Daily News.
The peacock throne, which cost the
Shah Jehan S300O0,o00, was a Won
derful canoried chair of pure gold in
erusted With rubies, sapphireS and feS-
toonS Of pearls, and ornamented with
two great jeweied peacockS and lite
sized parrot cut from single emer-
sld. 1t was a fabulous work OF art.
and when it slipped OFT Of sight after
the death of the shah there was much
speculation. Presumably strand OF
pearls was Topped OF here, ruby
pried off there, and the emerald par
rot cut into number Of less distinc>
tive jewels. Today mere throne
framework in Teher;,n is pointed out
uncertainty as the peacock throne.
The crown jewels Of Russia are sup
posed to be slipping away in similar
fashion. There was DO word OF any
loorirg when the kremiin in Moscow,
where the glittering jewels Of royalty
reposed, fell into the hands Of the rev.
olutionists. The Kremlin has been
guarded by the soviet government.
The condition of the treasury galleries
is veiled in mystery.
