Pitcher Jack Quinn of the Boston

After % years of pitching, a great
er part of it in the major leagues,
Quinn is apparently as good as he
ever was. His work has featured
the sensational showing of the Bos-

Quinn is spitball pitcher. 1t is
his ace IN the hole. He has good
speed and sharp curve, but the
old splitter is still his one best bet
The spitball is generally regarded
as the hardest of all deliveries or
a pitchers arm. The career of most

Prometheus

The word Prometheus, the name of
character in Grecian mythology,
means forethought, and forethought is
the father of invention. According to
the Grecian tradition, Prometheus
taught man the use of fire, and in
structed him in architecture, astron-
omy, mathematics, writing, rearing cat
tie, navigation, medicine, the art of
prophecy, working metal. and indeed,
every art known to man. The tale Is
that he made man Of clay, and, in or
der to endow his clay with life, stole
fire from heaven and brought it to
earth in a hollow tube. Zeus, who
in Grecian mythology corresponds to
Jupiter in the Roman mythology, in
Furnishing Prometheus, chained him to
a rock, and sent an eagle to consume
his liver daily. During the night it
grew again, and thus the torment Of
Prometheus was ceaseless, until Her
cules shot the eagle, and unclaimed
the captive.

Old Weather ".Sar0s"
Based on Good Sense

Admiral Fitzroy, who invented the
barometer and commanded the brig
Beagle on its expedition to the Amer
lean coast In 1881, declares that most
of the old saws" regarding weather
are reliable and based on common
sense investigation. AS weather ex-
pert he commended an old saying to
the effect that the glow of dawn high
in the sky denotes wind, and low
dawn fair weather. He babe us believe
that soft-looking, delicate clouds mean
wind-fair weather, and hard, ragged
ones wind. Mist on q hilltop means
rain and wind if 1t stays long or comes
down-fine weather If it rises and dis
perses. Rain Is due when distant OBJ
jects look near as on what Is called a
good hearing day. And rain is fore
told by pigs carrying straws to stiles.
The pig as a prophet appears In an
old riddle: Question: Why Is a
storme to followe presently when
company of hogges runne crying
home? Answer: hog is most dull
and of melancholy nature; and so by
reason doth foretel the raine that
cometh. In time of raine. most cattell
doe pricke up their ears; as for ex-
ample an asse will, when he perceiveth
q storme lof raine or hail doth follow.

Pearls Gathered in
Many Parts of World

Inc pearl is globular concretion
round In the shells of certain biyalve
molluscs, highly valued for orna-
mental purposes, and classed among
gems. The principal sources of pearls
are the pearl oyster. found through
out the Pacific ocean; the pearl mus
sci; and the freshwater mussel. The
chief pearl fisheries are those of Cey-
Ion, carried on principally in the Gulf
OF Manaar Those of the Persian gulf
were known to the ancients. Pearls
are also obtained rom the Sulu archi-
peiago, northeastern Borneo; New
Guinea. Gulf of Mexico. and Australia.
Native divers descend 60 or 10 feet,
weighted by stone and lowered from
boat by rope. They carry a net
and gather the pearl oysters in it.
They remain below for 80 or 40 Sec
onds at time and are hoisted to the
surface after signaling with a rope.
The oysters are allowed to rot on the
beach in the suns rays. Then In seven
or ten days the decayed oysters are
searched for pearls.
Artificial pearls are largely made in
France. Germany, and Italy, by blow

Story of EIgin

We might use the glamorous words
of childhoods fairy tales, Long ago
and far away" to tell the tale of Elgin
cathedral whose seven hundredth
birthday was celebrated last August o
and 6. So long ago as the twilight
time of the early Middle ages, so Tar
away as Rome, must we go for the be-
ginnings of the story Of this hoary old
pile. whose influence has been casting
its spell upon the lives of the jewellers
in the old province of Moray from that
far-off time to the present. There is
an old tradition that the Cuidees
founded the church to begin with, just
as they did that of BRINE. In any
case. the site was already hallowed by
many sacred associations, when
Bishop Andrew Moray, scion Of the
powerful house of De Moravia. moved
tbe Cathedral of Spynie to the Church
of Holy Trinity in Elgin.

Shakespeare or Bacon?

A heated discussion arose in the
Nineteenth century from an attempt,
on the part of Miss Della Bacon, TO
prove that Lord Francis Bacon was
the author of the plays commonly at
tributed to Shakespeare. William FL.
Smith, an English scholar; Nathaniel
Holmes, in his Authorship of Shake
speare," and Mrs. Henry Holmes have
also labored in the same direction. In
1888 Ignatius Donnelly produced his
work entitled "The Great Cryptogram,"
wherein he endeavored to show "that
Bacon's authorship is avowed under
cypher in the text Of the plays In the
folio of 1928" Shakespearean schol-
airs do not accept the Baconian theory
of authorship.

Admit Possibility of
Metal Transnuf0tion

Nothing better could illustrate the
new conceptions of matter now exist
ing in scientific circles than the tone
In which the orthodox physicists com
ment on the report from Germany of
the turning of mercury into gold. A
few years ago no real scientist would
have had the patience to dignity such
claims even to the extent of denying
them, says the New York Times.
The difference between the elements
then was held to be essential and I'M
changeable. At present there Is more
than doubt If any essential difference
separates any so-called element from
any Of the others, and to claims OF
transmutation the answer Is "Not Inn
possible -
The old assumptions as to the indie
structibility of matter and the con-
servation of energy-they, too, have
fallen upon evil days, and the respect
that used to be theirs has waned to
next to nothing. Yet science need not
confess fallibility, slice it never as
serted infallibility. The old hypothe-
ses fitted all of the known facts OF
their day and they met the pragmatic
test-they worked.
1t was said of Herbert Spencer that
his idea of a tragedy was the over
throwing of a. beautiful hypothesis by
an ugly fact. In these days no horror
at all and not even disquietude is
caused by such happenings.
