CHINESE GODDESS IN BOSTON

A statue of the Chinese Goddess
of Mercy, believed to be the work OF
some sculptor of the Seventh CEN
fury, has been brought to Boston
from the Orient.
The statue, which stands slightly
more than six feet in height, is of
white marble, and represents the
goddess draped in robes, with a
closed basket on one arm and lotus
flower, symbolic Of forgetfulness, in
the other.
The statue was obtained at Pc
king, where all the statues and relics
recovered in the Chinese empire are
assembled by order of the govern
ment. P. G. Larkin, owner OF the
statue, came from Canada especially
to attend to the installation OF the
latest addition to his collection. He
already has a valuable selection of
Chinese tapestries, carved worries
and ancient cabinets, in addition to
scores of pieces of oriental sculpture.

HAS .DAvY' cRocKETT's APRON
Masonic Emblem Worn by Pioneer
Warrior In Possession Of Former
Kentucky Congressman.

Former Senator E. M. Taylor has
obtained the Masonic apron once
worn by David Crockett, pioneer In
dian fighter, congressman and hero
of the battle of the Alamo. 1t is
more than ninety years old, accord
ing to Fulton (Ky.) dispatch to
the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The apron is of white satin, with
emblems of the order in red, paint
ed. 1t was given to Crockett in
Washington when he represented the
Ninth Tennessee district in con-
gress. The name of the donor, Mrs.
G. A. Mesi, who made it, still is
legibie.
The historic satin was lost during
the Civil war.
When Crockett left Texas, where
he was active in revolutionary bat
ties before the Mexican war, he gave
the apron to William Bowers, then
sheriff of Weakly county, Tennessee,
who at his death left it to his son.
The latter presented it to Mr.. Tay-

SPAIn'S WAR ON MOSQUITOES
Authorities Quarantine MaIariaI HUI
man Beings Who Might "Infect"
the Insect Pests.

The government authorities who
are trying to free certain region in
Spain of malaria refuse to allow
sufferers from that disease to re-
main in the region over night lest
they infect the notwithstanding mos
quitoes, which feed only at night.
Few white people live in the dis
trict and most of the sufferers come
from considerable distances. Their
blood is examined and sufficient quiz
nine is given to them to last two
weeks. They are told to go home at
once and to report back at the end
of a fortnight for another supply.
The theory is that if mosquitoes
cannot find a malaria patient to bite
they cannot acquire malaria germs
and therefore cannot pass them on
to well persons. In other words, if
men do not infect mosquitoes, mos
quitoes will not infect men.
American minnows, Gambusia af-
fms, are being imported into Spain
and Italy to help in mosquito eradi-
cation.

SEEK REALLY SAFE METHODS
OFFICIALS of Department OF Aorlcultur.
Are Considering Best Protection
Against Lightning.

In order to put the mark of Of
ilclal and scientific sanction on
lightning protection methods, there
was recently appointed, through the
collaboration of the bureau of stand
ards, the weather bureau and the
American Institute of Electrical
Engineers, committee to prepare
code and to institute foolproof
methods and appliances for protec-
ton against lightning. There are
practical methods, practices and APP
planes for protecting buildings
against lightning, but, because of
unscrupulous agents who score or
more years ago succeeded in selling
equipment that did not protect, vir-
tually all methods and equipment
came into disrepute among farmers
and others.
Progress has already been made by
the committee in the solution of this
problem and many well-established
principles have been made known to
interested scientists and workers. 1t
is hoped that the work of this COM
mittee, declares bulletin emanat-
ing from the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, will result in
developing practical methods, prac-
tees and appliances and make farm
buildings and other structures safer.
