ore containing usually considerable
iron. This method was prarticed by
the Eskimos and by the AthapaSca
and Algonquin tribes ranging across
the continent from the Pacific coast
to Newfoundland and down the Allan

The most valued and most effectual
method of making fire known to the
Indians was that of the reciprocating
motion of wood on wood and ignitng

generated by friction. The simplest
method was TO Whjrl rapidly backward

CITES EARTH'S IA MOVEMENTS

The fact that our earth in its voyage
through space has no fewer than four
teen distinct movements has been
pointed out by the French astronomer
and scientist Camille Flammarion. ac-
cording to an article in the Paris
Temps. These are as follows;
Daily rotation, annual revolution,
ductuation or rocking due to the pre-
Cession of the equinoXes in a period of
2G, 765 years, monthly movement Of the
of the earth-moon couple; mutation
caused by the attraction of the moon
every eighteen and a half years; varia-
ton. coming once every century Of
the obliQuity of the ecliptic; variations
every century of the eccentricty of the
terrestrial orbit; displacement of the
line Of apses every g1000 years; dis
turbances caused by the constantly
changing attraction of the planets: dis
placement Of the center of gravity Of
the solar system around which the
earth travels annually, this center be
ing determined by the variable posi-
tons of the planets; perpetual varia-
ton Of ATTITUDES; daily tides Of the

A Scientific Prediction.

The story is often told of the great
naturalist, Cuvier, that, given a SIN
gle bone he could reconstruct the an
imal to which it belonged. That a
somewhat similar law of organization
runs through the various species that
form families in the animal kingdom
is indicated by a curious case Of scien-
tifc prediction, to which attention
was called at a recent meeting Of the
Biological society in this country.
Nuremberg while studying the min
ute animals called diatoms, found that
many species were distinguished by
the number of rays they possessed.
But in the series Of specimens that
he had he could find bone having re-
spectively q, %, 81, 81, 80, Al. ~, A,
45, 49, 4S and SO rays. Still he pre-
dicted that the missing species would
some day turn up. and he was right.
for ten of them were afterward dis
covered. although the remaining two
have not yet been found.

CAPTAIN sUBDUEs MUTlNEERs
Hooch-crazed Crew Of Steamer Chez
ter kiwanis Finds HE Fist
Worse Than Hurricane.

Latest reports from the mutiny on
the shipping board tramp steamer
Chester Kiwanis while she WAS an.
chored of Staten island early the other
morning, indicate that it was not for
assistance CAPT JOB Cunningham
called the harbor squad Of the police
department The captain and his chief
engineer, although they we're only two
against thirty-four drunken and
quarrelsome seamen, finished the Job
of quelling the mutiny In such work
manlike manner that they thought 1t
a shame there were no witnesses to
the results of their efficiency. the New
York World states.
The mixup started when some Of the
white sailors. having Struggled aboard
a quantity Of bootleg hooch, renewed
quarrel with the eight negro members
Of the crew, who appealed to the
captain for protection. There had
been friction all the way over from
Boulogne, from which port the Chester
Kiwanis cleared and Capt. Cunning
ham was pretty we'll fed up with argu-
ment.
Therefore he went to the fo'clsle,
where he found the crew had bar
-icaded itself In. With one blow or
his huge fist the captain shattered a
panel Of the door. driving his fore
arm clear through. At this point
sailor made a tactical error Of biting
the captains wrist. After that the
captain laid out every sailor within
reach. and he managed to reach about
all Of them. Chief Engineer Michael
son Joined the fray and although he
got couple Of black eyes, he gave
better than he received, and 1t was
not long before all was quiet along the
Staten island shore.
That was the time that the captain
and the chief decided 1t was too oao
no one could see their handiwork'
Therefore, when one Of the crew below
started to yell they summoned tne
police boat, explaining that they
feared second outbreak"

CARRIES STOOL TO WORSHIP

Summer resorters get accustomed TO

take the place Of gas ranges and they

On week-ends most Of the bungaloF

kitchen and porch serve as overflow
bedrooms. Few OF the churches In
the summer towns are able to seat all
the worshipers on Sunday. But that
doesn't hinder the attendance. AT a

PIG IRONS Base PRODUCTS
Metal Sold in Three Forms-Cast,
Wrought and Steei-One of Most
Valuable Minerals.

Iron is the most valuable metal in
the world to man, because it is of
more use in more ways
1t has been known to men from earn-
est times. Savages smelted it. II Is
generally found compounded with other
substances such as carbon. These
other substances have to be burned
out in order to have pure iron.
Iron Is sold in three forms-cast
iron, wrought iron, and steel. Cast
iron is brittle and hard like the lid
on the kitchen range. Wrought irnl.
can be hammered out flat or made into
wire or welded 1t is quite soft. Steel
Is also capable of being hammered
out flat and welded. Its peculiar prop
erty is that when tempered 1t be
comes very hard-so hard that sharp
edge can be put on it-so hard that il
will, when edged, cut wrought iron
Iron which has been melted and
poured into a molG in some form de
sired for use, such as part of stove,
is called cast iron. Iron which is cast
roughly from the smelted ore in order
to be used to make cast iron, wrought
iron or steel is called pig iron.
Pudding is the name of the process
by which pig iron is made into wrought
iron. 1t is done in furnace in which
the carbon is burned from the pig
iron
Pig iron contains the most carbon
then comes steel and then wrought
iron.
Steel can be made directly from pig
iron by what is known as the Bessemer
and open-hearth processes, Formerly
it was made from wrought iron.
