“Oh. well," he said, and, walking
slowly away from the chair, Reginald
took his ha; from the table again. He
stood for some time staring Into Its

coming to a standstill.

‘‘Oh, very well,” he said, turning
away.
"Perhaps you had better, she ex
claimed, coming toward him. "And.
Reggie?"
• Yes," he said, meeting her half way.
“If you care for the primroses—"
"I do,” he returned.
"Shall I—"
She drew quite close and, standing
on tipped toes (she was a small per
son), deftly placed the bunch In the
buttonhole of Reginald's frock coat.
Suddenly Joan sprang away and the
door opened.
Roper entered with the air or a
successful wooer, l ut, seeing Reginald
he- appeared ludicrously astonished. He
stroked his dyed moustache with on
hand, while lt« held his hat In the oth
er. Joan's face grew red as a peony
and Reginald looked down at the bunch
of primroses in his buttonhole. His at
titude seemed to arrest Lord Roper s
attention; he then darted a sharp
glance aboilt the room.
Those are the first primroses X have
seen this year," he said..
"Harbingers of spring,” remarked
Joan, with a smile.
"You attach a great significance to
them. then. Miss continued Ro
per, coolly.

A scientific account of the great In- 1
dlan earthquake of June 12. W)tj which'
was the Urgent and posslldy the most j
violent on record, was given at the
British association meeting by Mr. It |
n. Oldham. The shock was felt over I
an area of not less than 1,750,000 miles j
long and 50 v ide. I.andHltps on an |
unprecedented scale were produced In j
the Oaro and Khasla hills and In
Himalaya north of Rower Assam. A
number of lakes have formed In the
depressions caused, mountain ts-sks,
were moved both vertically and hor
izontally. and atone monuments and j
forest trees were broken across by the
violence of the shaking. C’ommunra
tlons of all klrifla were Interrupted.
Bridges were overthrown and In some
cases thrust upward 20 feet, while gulls
on the railways were twisted and bent.
ICarth fissures were formed over an
area larger than the United Kingdom,
and solid streams of sand and water
were forced to a height of three to five
feet above ground from countless sand
vents.
Sakt, or rice wine, has been used In
Japan more than 2.000 years. Dr.
Loew of Munich says it Is prepared by
first steaming iho rice and then im
pregnating with a species of ferment,
mixing with water and fermenting
with the aid of yeast from rise
straw. A remarkable fact is that
"pasteurizing” or heating to a certain
ticed for ages to give this wine a keep
ing quality. Saki contains from 14 to
16 per cent of alcohol, or about five
times as much as the German beer.
The color of natural waters has been
specially studied by Prof. H - Spring
of the University of Dlege. In a re
cent address to scientific men he
showed experimentally that the ttue
color of pure water Is blue, and that
this Is characteristic of the water it
self and is not due to the reflection
from the surface, nor from suspended
particles. I*kc Geneva is «n example
of the blue of pure water. When pure

this. In size, the species vary front

A material lately introduc'd by Van
M'dekebekc for the phosphorescent
screens used In 1 experiments with
Roentgen rays is reported to have;
proven mueh more sensitive than any
substance hitherto tried. It ts uran
ium ammonium fluoride, produced by
dissolving 1 gramme of uranium ni
trate In 4 grammes <)t boiling water,
adding 1 1-2 grammes of amonlum
fluoride, and boiling a few minutes.
The solution should he rrce from pre
cipitate. On cooling, octahedral crys
tals are deposit; ,1 within an hour, and
the solution los's Its pale yellow color,
becoming perfectly colorless. The crys
tals are repeatedly washed with cold
venter, by which they are not affected,
although soluble In hot water. The
preparation Is dried, and for luminous
screens Is mixed with collodion or
gellatine. Tile quality of these screens
depends upon the perfect development
of the crystals.
The Pole's Legacy.
The question of whether the holy
see may lawfully, become the recipi
ent of legacies;,Vi Italy without pre
viously obtaining, the authorization of
the Italian government, has Just,
writes our Kona- correspondent, been
raised Wore 'the civil tribunal of
Rome.
For Ih* vallcan the cause was of
exceptional importance, as It eslaldlah
rd a precedent, which dlsatwmlnled
heirs, cul off with a shilling hy llg
oted parents or relatives, will not fa! 1
I to Invoke In order to regain pogaessloi
!of I heir |.nii inn no s engulfed tn th*

The fads whl< h gate rise to this In
tervstlng lawsuit are the following: A
pious widow, named lioasl. left th*
bulk of her Itltle fortune, amounting (<
W.uon ft sms. to (he holy see, glean
lo the desfMilr of her helr-appar* i t
Giuseppe Mlnelll, who, trusting In tie
generosity of the pope, sent In a pell
lion exposing the lamentable state e
his flimm-e* and Imploring to lie ul
lowed lo retain one-half of the legacj
Hut the holy father, Instead of a*
ceding to the very reasonable reques
diverted one of his legal advisers. Ad
vocate Patrlsr* a, to negotiate th* - sal
of the legacy, which the latter d d
giving up all rights accruing to tl
holy sec hy virtue of the widow's wl
to a merchant named Monaml. wh<
by paying down a sum of 15,000 fran* i
became possessed of a right to th
whole legacy, amounting to double th;
sum.
This transaction, w hleh cannot l
said to reflect very favorably on th
generosity • and equity of he tv !
father's legal advisers. enriiß*-*! th*
disappointed heir to such a point that
he refused to give up the money to
Monaml, and raised the legal question
In the civil tribunal as t<* whether the
holy see had a tight to accept and to
negotiate a legacy without the author
ization of the government. The point
was eventually decided tn his favor
and against the holy Bee und Monaml.
The holy sev. hy Its unbecoming at
tempt to grasp more, and by Its ne
glect of the heir's modest request, be
sides rutting a peculiar figure, has now
brought a hornet’s nest about It's head.
hml the speculating merchant will
have to wait some time before the 15,-
000 francs are returned to him from
the coffers of the Vatican.
A question of a similar nature will
shortly be discussed before the su
preme court of cassation of Rome, the
plaintiffs being the lnteran chapter,
who claim that, ns the lateran palace
and adjoining edifices have been left
to the holy see by the law of guaran
tees after 1870, the chapter should be
reintegrated In the possession of all its
numerous lands, rents and privileges,
afriountlng to some millions of lire,
in the Roman province, and which
were confiscated by the Italians.—
