Landon Wallace Bates. of this city, iL arranging to erect on Mount Lebanon. the highest point In the Berkshires, a remarkable monument which will serve to remind future sn- orations of the brilliant career of this young man and of the bravery with which he died. Typically American in origin and de- sign, as is befitting a memorial to one so truly American in ideals as was Lin- don Bates, Jr., this monument will rise more than 175 feet above the summit of the mountain, standing out in grandeur by day and beaming forth as a beacon by night to all within a radius of fifty miles. Quite the most strikifg feature of a memorial characterized by originality and at the same time by dignified sim- plicity in that the top of the shaft will be provided with electric searchlight re- flectors which will throw a great beam of light in a vertical direction and beam of equal power to the east and west. thereby forming a cruciform effect at night The location of the monument is such that this cross, shining In the dark- ness. will be seen in five States-New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut. Ver- mont and New Hampshire. Back to the Maya Period For a design which Mr. Bates thought would please his son-for this has been the main thing that has guided him in the consideration of every detail concern- ing the memorial-Mr. Bates went back 1.f*10 years into the history of the New World and has selected something which is believed by archaelogoists to have been created in the Maya period, the arliest period of known civilization in North America- The Maya period is pre- .Aztec and pre-Toltec and the people of this remote time are supposed to have reached the highest stage of their civil- zation in the state of Oaxaca, m south- ern Mexico. T'e monument itself wil he n str':e- ti's of marble or white granite, with the base righty-eight feet asuare. The shaft. to be mounted on two truncated pyramlds. will rise 112 feet shove the bare. The do ble pyramid will inclose a domed crypt about thirty feet in diameter and forty feet high. The dome will contain a gallery, which will over- look the sarcophagus. lighted from the top with a violet light. The shaft will he hollow, vith a stairway leading to the top, access to which is to he reached from the top of the second pyramid story. Spring to Give Power. T1.e ste of the memorial is on the s -nmit ridg' of the Berkshires. about 1. 'A feet east of the State line between New York and Massachusetts. An approach from the base of Mount Lebanon to its summit will be cut throu:gh a forest of virgin white birch, a..l it will he call-i Vista avenue. This na.nue will he ., feet long and sixty t wbie, at tl:e beginning of which there wall be a large fountain. The en- trance into Vista avenue from the State road will be semi-circular, containing a f. untain, on the east side of which will be the entrance to the clectric power sta- tion, and on the west sid'e the guardian's lodge, both in white marble or white granito in the same style as the base of the mont-nent. Th. water for the two fcuntains will be supplied by the spring wii h1 will furnish the power for the lights in the top of the monument. Amphitheater in Woods.

The monument wIll ho placed so that when the sun is behind It there will be a reflection of the me- morial in the fountain at the junction of the Stato road and Vista avenue. Ttoe plans for the monument provide for places on the corners of the trun- cated pyramidal bases and at the stair- cases for several groups of appropriate statuary. The top of the monument ulti- mately will be provided with a large memorial group. Inscriptions for the monument already have been selected. The north side will show a copy from a tablet in Berzelius lal:, New Haven, as follows: In Memory LINDON WALLACE BATES, Jr., 1902-S. Born July Seventeen, 1893. Lost on the Lusitanta May Seven, 1913. Ilis achievements in Science, Litera- ture. Philanthropy and Public Service were fitly crowned by his surrender to another of his opportunity for safety. "Greater love hath no man than this-That a man lay 'down his life for his friends." The south side of the monument will contain an inscription giving a short history of the sinking of the Lusitania and the circumstances surrounding the death of Lindon Bates, Jr. "Roxwell's Daily Prayer." The inscription on the north side will be called "Roxwell's Daily Prayer." Rozweli, It may be said, was the pseudo- nym by which Lindon Bates. jr., was known to his family and friends. The prayer Is: "May I faithfully guard the trust of my brother's soul Make me unselfish. charitable, righteous, and fit me for a work of highest service to mankind." The inscription on the west side will denote the mission on which Lindon Bates, Sr., was engaged at the time of his death. It will say simply: "COMMISSION FOR RELIEF IN BELGIUM." There is a significance attached to the erection of such a monument on this particular spot. Mount Iebanon has been part of the Bates estate for many years. Nearby there stood the Bates country home, in Columbia County, N. Y. It wan here that )nung Lindon spent much of his boyhood.

Be., Praelac Kohsieey, GMO Was gtea UntemUi; fei deer, Weafter BersadI For eighteen years as Chief of the United States Weather Bureau I sought. with all of the fanlitis of a great gov- ernment institution. to solve the iroblen of the law that I know must be back of the initiation of stnrms. I constructed the weather research ob- servatories at Mount Weather; flew kites carrying self-recordIng thermometers and barometers daily to ae1ituds of from two to over four miles; saild free bal- loons with instruments frequently to nineteen miles altitude and received the instruments back again under parachutes after the baloons had exploded; measured the height and velocity of clouds by means of theodlite observations; daily plotted observations collected from around the entire Northern Hemisphere so that I might locate all the storms ot land or ocean on any given date and trace the sequence of storms and cold waves from their beginning to their end- ing, and collated and discussed the avail- able data which might be expected to show the relation that subsists, if any. between solar activities or planstory po- sitions and the weather of the earth-but all without definite success until I be- came associated with W. F. Carothers, of Houston, Tex., who has undoubtedly dis- covered the central law of the weather. which makes it possible to make forecasts two and three weeks in advance with higher accuracy than can be made from an ordinary meteorological chart for two days in advance. Win Save Millions. When this new system Is adopted by the government or other institutions for the making of predictions there will re- sult a saving of hundreds of millions to the farmer and to the man who works out of doors. While the forecasts will not be perfect, they will have but a small percentage of error, and will enable one to know weeks in advance the general character of the weather, and to get de- tailed forecasts that will have a higher degree of accuracy than he has had here- tofore. By this system every one of the cyclones and anti--cyclones that consti- tute our weather may be traced back to certain activities of the sun that it is possible now definitely to measure. The splendid work of C. G. Abbot, of the Smithsonian Institution, has shown the variable character of the sun's heat and that certain spots radiate more than other parts of the surface of the sun. There are hot, luminous, metalic clouds surrouinding the sun, called the photo- sphere. Here and there the pent up heat -f the interior bursts through these clouds and creates a rift or opening which emits heat in excess of the hot odjacent photosphere. These rifts, by sending out shafts of extra heat disturb the otherwise orderly processes of the seasons and create tur- bulent gyrations in our atmosphere that we call storms and cold waves. Caroth- ers has discovered a most wonderful and ingenious way of locating these rifts through the action that they exercise on the morning rise of the barometer, which always is present in more of less degree between 4 and 10 a. m. each day at the equator and for some degrees north and south. He has also determined them by direct observations of the sun. Twenty-fve-day Rotation. Most investigators have been confused and lost in an interminable jungle by trying to correlate weather of the earth with a twenty-seven day rotation period which the photosphere seems to have and to trace the relation of spots, promi- nences, and faculae and variations In magnetic conditions to storms of the earth. Carothers found that the im, at least at the equator and beneath the photo- sphere, rotates In twenty-five days and not twenty-seven; that there are never less than five nor more than eight of the heat rifts previously referred to: that they may retain their position and existence for many months, or more than a year. at a time, with varying degrees -f intensity; and that each crosses our central meridian every twenty-five days. They may pass away and others form; hut, as previously stated, each one of our storms and cold waves can now he traced hack to one of these heat pulsa- tions of the sun, and it is found that their intensities are directly proportional to the strength of te solar rifts. Mr. Carothers has discovered the length of the Interval between the passage of a rift and the appearance of a cold wave in the western part of the United States. It is nearly three weeks in length. A working hypothesis that satisfies the requirements of science with regard tc these discoveries may be stated as fol- lows: That the passage of the earth through a shaft of extra heat expands the lower air at the equator much more than it does at high latitudes, causing the air in the tropics to bulge upward until huge masses, somewhat like avalanches of snow on a mountain side, break loose and slide down the incline towards the poles. BOY SCOUT NEWS. During the past week two large school troops have lbeen formed. Lao iirst to organize was the Jefferson school troop, at Sixth street and Virginia avenut southwest. A full troop already ha~s been enrolled and the boys of this troop had their first hike with Field Executive Patton recently. Last Thursday afternoon another troop of Boy Scouts was formed at the Wal- lace School, Seventh street and Pennsyl- vania avenue southeast Field Executive Taylor addressed the boys and four pa- trols were started. This troop had its first hike yesterday. Troop 17 met last Friday. Fourteen out of seventeen boys passed their school examinations and were advanced one grade. The scoutmaster held a meeting of the patrol leaders at bis home and instructed them in scoureraft. Five boys have passed theIr tenderfoot exami- nation, and we have had two applica- tions for membership in the troop. The secOnd class scouts are preparing to be examined at the next meeting. At the last meeting of Troop 24 two new members were voted In and accepted. Mr. Bender delivered an addreas. The troop has started a fund for camp expenses and at the beginning of the campirng seasoni this fund will be used to defray expenses. The troop has an excellent library. Mem- hers hope to be able to have electric lighi Installed In the clubhouse In the near future. The scouts are all workIng hard on some models for demonstrations te be given some time In ApriL Scout Pair- all has been appointed the courier for the Scout Bulletin. The membership campaign of roop B has begun in earneet and each scout i expected to bring in at least one new me- cruit for the next meeting. several ar- ticles in the by-laws and constitution @1 the troopers were alnenaad at the lasl mnes.

Theue masses crowd each other becanme of the converging of the meridians of longitude have their northward move- ment checked, and settle down to the earth in the form of cool or cold waves in the middle latitudes or near the Arctic circle. Fellow Weill Defined Retes. They move along certain fairly well defned routes in accordance with the general hemispherical circulation of the atmosphere, settling bver continents in winter and over oceans in summer, be- cause the plane on which they slide is steeper over land In winter and over oceans in summer. As they come down they rotate in an anti-cyclonic manner, cause ascending cyclonic storms to form on both their eastern and western sides, and thus indirectly produce rain and snow fall by the warm moist air that they force upward. They, themselves, are dry, because they have been chilled and had their moisture squeezed out by the cold of elevation before they started on their northward circuit from the equator. We know to the fraction of a day the time required for these air masses from the equator to complete their overhead journey and come to the earth on our western border. Having located a heat rift on the sun, or several of them, we may look with certainty for its return at the end of twenty-five days and for the cool weather conditions that in each case will follow In due time. With experience and im- proved methods of observations the fore- casts made by this system will certainly yield a far higher accuracy than any- previously known and for a much longer period, and must therefore result In great benefit to mankind and a wonderful con- servation of human energy. Much pre- liminary work had been done by myself and others, but Carothers, with his In- genuity, furnished the key to unlock the door. Are Many Charlatans. There have been so many charlatans making long-range weather forecasts, and persons making similar predictions whose work showed that they were igno- rant of the most elementary knowledge of science, that I have not given my indorsement to this project until I be- came convinced that it would stand the test of scientific inquiry. The meteorologists of the world are practically agreed that systems of long- range weather forecasting that depend upon planatary meteorology have no proper basis; neither have those-hat are predicated upon the phases, cycles, or movements of the moon; upon stellar in- fluences or star divinations; upon the actions of animals or plants; nor upon days, monhts, seasons, and years. The moon and perhaps the planets exert some influence upon atmospheric tides, but these effects are too slight to have any appreciable influence in storm formation. Now that we are for the first time able to refer our weather directly back to the sun and begin to trace some definite laws where for so long only chaos seemed to reign, It is reasonable to expect that with the continuation of the extremely valuable work of Abbot and the inter- pretations of Carothers and other meteor- ologists. we shall soon be able to fore- see the general character of the seasons a year in advance. In this connection I may c.,uote from my annual report of 1903, with some feelings of satisfaction, showing that I had anticipated the re- stilt now accomplished. It is as follows: Discovery Predicted. "The science of meteorology is not to he confined to the atmosphere of the earth, because the changes in the action of the atmosphere of the sun precede the variations of the earth's air, which finally culminate in a certain typo of season. Thus, wet and dry seasons, warm and cold summers and winters, and all the other climatic differences, first depend upon the persistence of certain high and low areas of pressure in one locality or another, and these may be due to the solar radiation, which itself changes with the output of energy from the interior of the sun. "Thus, meteorology is really a closely allied but difficult branch of solar physics, and it ought to be studied with the aid of a fully equipped observatory devoted especially to such research. The study of the records of all the various forms of solar activity indicate that the sun in fact is a great variable star, and that terrestrial weather may change in synchronism with it. "In short, the entire field of cosmical processes forms a complex problem which especially concerns the meteorologist, and by him should be studied out for the benefit of mankind, whose life and hap- piness depend so largely upon the weather. I am so far convinced of the importance of finding out the laws of this cosmical physics, by which alone the problem can be solved, that it has been thought proper to found a research ob- servatory at Mount Weather, Va., and equip it suitably for these investiga- tions." It is a significant commentary at this time to say that Mount Weather now is abandoned. ball have been purchased by the troop and Scout Nelms has perfected a new game, "floorball." Troop 2 has the honor to be the first troop to get out its own weekly troop bulletin. Last Friday evening the troop had a lecture from Field Executive Pat- ton and illustrated with his own lantern slides. A bicycle corps bas been formed among the scouts owning wheels. Three scout., have been appointed to rep- resent the troop at the meeting of the Piney Branch Citizens' Association to- morrow. They are Scouts Omohundro, Cartwright and Fellows. The next pa- trol leader's examinations will take place on Wednesday. A trdop court has been installed. Johnston and Stanton were present at the last meeting and gave the boys practical instruction in first aid. Troop 42 met last Tuesday evening at 36 D street southeast. Patrol Leader Warren Nicholson and his assistant, Ev- erett Hall, are the two leaders of the new patrol just formed. It will be known em the Blue Buffalo. So success- ful were the members of the troop with the Ritter plan that another order was placed by the members. Julius Lazerow was appointed assistant senior patrol leader. Last Friday afternoon the boys who intend to take the second class ex- amninations went over them with Mr. KidwelL. The troop now has thirty-two members. Mr. Patton lectured to Troop 46 re- cently. Troop 55 now has three patrols, namely, "Stag," "Black Beer," "Blue Buffalo." Bad weather has not interfered with the three regular Ikes. The patrol leaders are as follows: Stag patrol, Leighton Johnson; aseistant, Richard Greist; soo- ond patrol leader, edwin Hardy; aseist- three regular hikes. The patrol leaders Robert Pritchard. The troop recently was presnted with a large Ahmerlean leg W a._ emer W~ahML 3.'man . ANINUES Bolivian Or W:1 Be ImOtd by Re fining Company with Plant at Perth Amboy. N. J. "Commerce Reports' announce the es- tabliahment of an entirely new Industry In the United States. All arrangements have been completed for the Importation of Bolivian tin ore by the American Smelting and Reining Company, and a large plant has besen .rected at Perth Amboy, N. J., for smelting and refining the raw material, It will be the first attempt to establish the industry on a large scale in the United States, The first definite information that such an undertaking had been decided upon was contained in a letter to Secretary Redfield from William Loeb, Jr.. of the American Smelting , and Refining Com- pany. in which it was stated that a new plant had been practically completed at Perth Amboy for the smelting of tin ores and concentrates and the electrolytic refining of tin. Mr. Loeb stated that this country Imports about 45,000 tons or tin yearly. and of this about 90 per cent Is Straits tin, which is consumed largely in the production of tin plate. The Straits Settlements impose an ex- port duty on tin ores, thus compelling the reduction to metallic form in the country in which it is produced. The Bolivian tin, according to Mr. Loeb's letter, contains impurities which. with the established methods of smelt- ing, do not produce a tin suitable for tin plate, but the plant at Perth Amboy proposes not only to smelt the impure ores from Bolivia and other countries, but to refine the product by the electroly- tic process. A recent analysis of this electrolytic tin by experienced chemists showed it to run 99.98 per cent pure. while the base metal from which it was produced contained only 93 per cent. For the manufacture of tin plate this tin is pronounced as good as the best Straits tin. - "In addition to building the plant and purchasing the South American tin ores," writes Mr. Loeb, "we are financing the miners by making liberal advances Im- mediately on shipments from South America. We hope eventually to be able to extend our present plant and increase the business considerably. In the initial steps of our negotiations to secure these tin ores, we were greatly helped by the co-operation of the chief of your Bu- reau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, the Commercial Attache of the Depart- ment In South America, and by the State Department." FAMOUS WAR PAINTING ON EXHIBITION HERE "The Battle of Gettysburg," By James Walker Being Shown at Senate Office Building. James Walker's celebrated painting, "The Battle of Gettysburg," owned by James Drummond Ball, of Boston, has been put on exhibit in Room 132, at the Senate Office Building, where it is being inspected by members of Congress and the public. The Senate Cimmitee on the Library, of which Senator Luke Lea, of Tennessee, is chairman, arranged for the exhibit of the famous picture. There are fourteen other historical paintings by Artist Walker now hanging in the Capitol or the War Department. The public has been invited to view the painting now In the Senate Office Building. The picture, which portrays twenty- five square miles of the battlefield of Gettysburg and locates the position and movements of 175,000 men, showing 0 regiments and seventy-eight batteries of artillery, and containing more figures than any other painting in the world, is to be deposited, if purchased by Con- gress, in the Lincoln Memorial. now being built near the Potomac on the Speedway at a cost of $2,000,000. 'The Battle of Gettysburg" is con- sidered to be the grandest battle scene ever put on canvas, the work requiring eight years. It is historically and artis- tically correct, having been begun by Artist Walker within forty-eight hours after the battle, the scenes being de- signed and arranged by Col. Bachelder, the government historian of the battle. and the picture has been approved by more than 1,000 officers of the Federal and Confederate armies, who visited the battlefield with Mr. Walker. WELL-GROOMED WOMEN CANNOT BE "HOMELY" Complexion that Is "Put On" Makes Wearer Ridiculous, Says Writer in Farm and Home. While clothes are an important factor in one's appearance, it is not the only one to be considered. So many busy housekeepers neglect to pay sufficient at- tention to their own personal appear- ance. We are not all born beauties, neither are we born homely, unless the case be abnormal. A clean, healthy woman, who carries herself erect, and dresses herself properly, is never home- ly, while on the other hand a slovenly, sickly, cranky person is never pretty, says a writer in Farm and Home. How- ever our features may differ, if we are normal we all have hands, feet, hair, complexions and figures that need at- tention to keep them In good order and in good shape. The complexion Is generally a pretty good indication of the health of the in- dividual. A complexion that is "put on' deceives no one and makes the wearr only ridiculous. Some points to be tee- membered by the one who would pre- serve a good complexion are as follows: Keep the bowels regular by natural methods. Drink little tea or coffee, but plenty of milk. buttermilk or pure Water. Eat liberally of fruits and vegetables, but rather sparingly of meats and greasy foods. Exercise regularly in the open air, and sleep enough and in a well-venti- lated room. Wash your face carefully and thoroughly, morning and evening, using only pure soap, with warm water, followed by a rinsing with cold water. Frequent bathing is conducive to good health. It keeps the pores of the skin clear, so that they can perform their proper functions, clearing .the system of excretions which cannot be di.- charged In other ways. A brisk rub after the bath promotes circulation of the blood. Georgetown (lass Eleets. The poet graduate class of Georgetown University Law School has elected the following officers: Harry W.

Landon WallaceBates. of this city, iL arranging to erecton Mount Lebanon. the highest point Inthe Berkshires, a remarkable monumentwhich will serve to remind future sn-orations of the brilliant career of thisyoung man and of the bravery withwhich he died.Typically American in origin and de-

sign, as is befitting a memorial to one

so truly American in ideals as was Lin-don Bates, Jr., this monument will risemore than 175 feet above the summit ofthe mountain, standing out in grandeurby day and beaming forth as a beaconby night to all within a radius of fiftymiles.Quite the most strikifg feature of a

memorial characterized by originalityand at the same time by dignified sim-plicity in that the top of the shaft willbe provided with electric searchlight re-

flectors which will throw a great beamof light in a vertical direction and beamof equal power to the east and west.thereby forming a cruciform effect atnight The location of the monument issuch that this cross, shining In the dark-ness. will be seen in five States-NewYork, Massachusetts, Connecticut. Ver-mont and New Hampshire.

Back to the Maya Period

For a design which Mr. Bates thoughtwould please his son-for this has beenthe main thing that has guided him inthe consideration of every detail concern-ing the memorial-Mr. Bates went back1.f*10 years into the history of the NewWorld and has selected something whichis believed by archaelogoists to havebeen created in the Maya period, thearliest period of known civilization in

North America- The Maya period is pre-.Aztec and pre-Toltec and the people ofthis remote time are supposed to havereached the highest stage of their civil-zation in the state of Oaxaca, m south-ern Mexico.T'e monument itself wil he n str':e-

"Roxwell's Daily Prayer."The inscription on the north side will

be called "Roxwell's Daily Prayer."Rozweli, It may be said, was the pseudo-nym by which Lindon Bates. jr., wasknown to his family and friends. Theprayer Is:"May I faithfully guard the trust of

my brother's soul Make me unselfish.charitable, righteous, and fit me for awork of highest service to mankind."The inscription on the west side will

denote the mission on which LindonBates, Sr., was engaged at the time ofhis death. It will say simply:

"COMMISSION FOR RELIEFIN BELGIUM."

There is a significance attached to theerection of such a monument on thisparticular spot. Mount Iebanon hasbeen part of the Bates estate for manyyears. Nearby there stood the Batescountry home, in Columbia County, N.Y. It wan here that )nung Lindon spentmuch of his boyhood.

Lather M1one, D. Be., Praelac Kohsieey, GMOWas gtea UntemUi; fei deer, WeafterBersadIFor eighteen years as Chief of the

United States Weather Bureau I sought.with all of the fanlitis of a great gov-ernment institution. to solve the iroblenof the law that I know must be backof the initiation of stnrms.I constructed the weather research ob-

servatories at Mount Weather; flew kitescarrying self-recordIng thermometers andbarometers daily to ae1ituds of fromtwo to over four miles; saild free bal-loons with instruments frequently tonineteen miles altitude and received theinstruments back again under parachutesafter the baloons had exploded; measuredthe height and velocity of clouds bymeans of theodlite observations; dailyplotted observations collected fromaround the entire Northern Hemisphereso that I might locate all the storms otland or ocean on any given date andtrace the sequence of storms and coldwaves from their beginning to their end-ing, and collated and discussed the avail-able data which might be expected toshow the relation that subsists, if any.between solar activities or planstory po-sitions and the weather of the earth-butall without definite success until I be-came associated with W. F. Carothers, ofHouston, Tex., who has undoubtedly dis-covered the central law of the weather.which makes it possible to make forecaststwo and three weeks in advance withhigher accuracy than can be made froman ordinary meteorological chart for twodays in advance.

Win Save Millions.When this new system Is adopted by

the government or other institutions forthe making of predictions there will re-sult a saving of hundreds of millions tothe farmer and to the man who worksout of doors. While the forecasts willnot be perfect, they will have but a smallpercentage of error, and will enable oneto know weeks in advance the generalcharacter of the weather, and to get de-tailed forecasts that will have a higherdegree of accuracy than he has had here-tofore.By this system every one of the

cyclones and anti--cyclones that consti-tute our weather may be traced back tocertain activities of the sun that it ispossible now definitely to measure. Thesplendid work of C. G. Abbot, of theSmithsonian Institution, has shown thevariable character of the sun's heat andthat certain spots radiate more thanother parts of the surface of the sun.There are hot, luminous, metalic cloudssurrouinding the sun, called the photo-sphere. Here and there the pent up heat-f the interior bursts through theseclouds and creates a rift or openingwhich emits heat in excess of the hotodjacent photosphere.These rifts, by sending out shafts of

extra heat disturb the otherwise orderlyprocesses of the seasons and create tur-bulent gyrations in our atmosphere thatwe call storms and cold waves. Caroth-ers has discovered a most wonderful andingenious way of locating these riftsthrough the action that they exercise onthe morning rise of the barometer, whichalways is present in more of less degreebetween 4 and 10 a. m. each day at theequator and for some degrees north andsouth. He has also determined them bydirect observations of the sun.

Twenty-fve-day Rotation.Most investigators have been confused

and lost in an interminable jungle bytrying to correlate weather of the earthwith a twenty-seven day rotation periodwhich the photosphere seems to haveand to trace the relation of spots, promi-nences, and faculae and variations Inmagnetic conditions to storms of theearth.Carothers found that the im, at least

at the equator and beneath the photo-sphere, rotates In twenty-five days andnot twenty-seven; that there are neverless than five nor more than eight ofthe heat rifts previously referred to:that they may retain their position andexistence for many months, or more thana year. at a time, with varying degrees-f intensity; and that each crosses ourcentral meridian every twenty-five days.They may pass away and others form;

hut, as previously stated, each one ofour storms and cold waves can now hetraced hack to one of these heat pulsa-tions of the sun, and it is found that theirintensities are directly proportional tothe strength of te solar rifts. Mr.Carothers has discovered the length ofthe Interval between the passage of arift and the appearance of a cold wavein the western part of the United States.It is nearly three weeks in length.A working hypothesis that satisfies the

requirements of science with regard tcthese discoveries may be stated as fol-lows:That the passage of the earth through

a shaft of extra heat expands the lowerair at the equator much more than itdoes at high latitudes, causing the airin the tropics to bulge upward until hugemasses, somewhat like avalanches ofsnow on a mountain side, break loose andslide down the incline towards the poles.

BOY SCOUT NEWS.During the past week two large school

troops have lbeen formed. Lao iirst toorganize was the Jefferson school troop,at Sixth street and Virginia avenutsouthwest. A full troop already ha~s beenenrolled and the boys of this troop hadtheir first hike with Field ExecutivePatton recently.Last Thursday afternoon another troop

of Boy Scouts was formed at the Wal-lace School, Seventh street and Pennsyl-vania avenue southeast Field ExecutiveTaylor addressed the boys and four pa-trols were started. This troop had itsfirst hike yesterday.

Troop 17 met last Friday. Fourteen outof seventeen boys passed their schoolexaminations and were advanced onegrade. The scoutmaster held a meetingof the patrol leaders at bis home andinstructed them in scoureraft. Fiveboys have passed theIr tenderfoot exami-nation, and we have had two applica-tions for membership in the troop. ThesecOnd class scouts are preparing to beexamined at the next meeting.

At the last meeting of Troop 24 two newmembers were voted In and accepted. Mr.Bender delivered an addreas. The troophas started a fund for camp expenses andat the beginning of the campirng seasonithis fund will be used to defray expenses.The troop has an excellent library. Mem-hers hope to be able to have electric lighiInstalled In the clubhouse In the nearfuture. The scouts are all workIng hardon some models for demonstrations tebe given some time In ApriL Scout Pair-all has been appointed the courier for theScout Bulletin.

y to Storm Waves.Theue masses crowd each other becanmeof the converging of the meridians oflongitude have their northward move-ment checked, and settle down to theearth in the form of cool or cold wavesin the middle latitudes or near the Arcticcircle.

Fellow Weill Defined Retes.They move along certain fairly well

defned routes in accordance with thegeneral hemispherical circulation of theatmosphere, settling bver continents inwinter and over oceans in summer, be-cause the plane on which they slide issteeper over land In winter and overoceans in summer. As they come downthey rotate in an anti-cyclonic manner,cause ascending cyclonic storms to formon both their eastern and western sides,and thus indirectly produce rain andsnow fall by the warm moist air thatthey force upward.They, themselves, are dry, because

they have been chilled and had theirmoisture squeezed out by the cold ofelevation before they started on theirnorthward circuit from the equator.We know to the fraction of a day the

time required for these air masses fromthe equator to complete their overheadjourney and come to the earth on ourwestern border.Having located a heat rift on the sun,

or several of them, we may look withcertainty for its return at the end oftwenty-five days and for the cool weatherconditions that in each case will followIn due time. With experience and im-proved methods of observations the fore-casts made by this system will certainlyyield a far higher accuracy than any-previously known and for a much longerperiod, and must therefore result In greatbenefit to mankind and a wonderful con-servation of human energy. Much pre-liminary work had been done by myselfand others, but Carothers, with his In-genuity, furnished the key to unlock thedoor.

Are Many Charlatans.There have been so many charlatans

making long-range weather forecasts,and persons making similar predictionswhose work showed that they were igno-rant of the most elementary knowledgeof science, that I have not given myindorsement to this project until I be-came convinced that it would stand thetest of scientific inquiry.The meteorologists of the world are

practically agreed that systems of long-range weather forecasting that dependupon planatary meteorology have noproper basis; neither have those-hat arepredicated upon the phases, cycles, ormovements of the moon; upon stellar in-fluences or star divinations; upon theactions of animals or plants; nor upondays, monhts, seasons, and years. Themoon and perhaps the planets exert someinfluence upon atmospheric tides, butthese effects are too slight to have anyappreciable influence in storm formation.Now that we are for the first time able

to refer our weather directly back to thesun and begin to trace some definite lawswhere for so long only chaos seemed toreign, It is reasonable to expect thatwith the continuation of the extremelyvaluable work of Abbot and the inter-pretations of Carothers and other meteor-ologists. we shall soon be able to fore-see the general character of the seasonsa year in advance. In this connection Imay c.,uote from my annual report of1903, with some feelings of satisfaction,showing that I had anticipated the re-stilt now accomplished. It is as follows:

Discovery Predicted."The science of meteorology is not to

he confined to the atmosphere of theearth, because the changes in the actionof the atmosphere of the sun precedethe variations of the earth's air, whichfinally culminate in a certain typo ofseason. Thus, wet and dry seasons,warm and cold summers and winters, andall the other climatic differences, firstdepend upon the persistence of certainhigh and low areas of pressure in onelocality or another, and these may bedue to the solar radiation, which itselfchanges with the output of energy fromthe interior of the sun."Thus, meteorology is really a closely

allied but difficult branch of solarphysics, and it ought to be studied withthe aid of a fully equipped observatorydevoted especially to such research. Thestudy of the records of all the variousforms of solar activity indicate that thesun in fact is a great variable star, andthat terrestrial weather may change insynchronism with it."In short, the entire field of cosmical

processes forms a complex problem whichespecially concerns the meteorologist,and by him should be studied out for thebenefit of mankind, whose life and hap-piness depend so largely upon theweather. I am so far convinced of theimportance of finding out the laws of thiscosmical physics, by which alone theproblem can be solved, that it has beenthought proper to found a research ob-servatory at Mount Weather, Va., andequip it suitably for these investiga-tions."

It is a significant commentary at thistime to say that Mount Weather now isabandoned.

Troop 2 has the honor to be the firsttroop to get out its own weekly troopbulletin. Last Friday evening the troophad a lecture from Field Executive Pat-ton and illustrated with his ownlantern slides. A bicycle corps bas beenformed among the scouts owning wheels.Three scout., have been appointed to rep-resent the troop at the meeting of thePiney Branch Citizens' Association to-morrow. They are Scouts Omohundro,Cartwright and Fellows. The next pa-trol leader's examinations will takeplace on Wednesday. A trdop court hasbeen installed. Johnston and Stantonwere present at the last meeting andgave the boys practical instruction infirst aid.

Troop 42 met last Tuesday evening at36 D street southeast. Patrol LeaderWarren Nicholson and his assistant, Ev-erett Hall, are the two leaders of thenew patrol just formed. It will beknown em the Blue Buffalo. So success-ful were the members of the troop withthe Ritter plan that another order wasplaced by the members. Julius Lazerowwas appointed assistant senior patrolleader. Last Friday afternoon the boyswho intend to take the second class ex-amninations went over them with Mr.KidwelL. The troop now has thirty-twomembers.

Mr. Patton lectured to Troop 46 re-cently.Troop 55 now has three patrols, namely,

ANINUESBolivian Or W:1 Be ImOtd by Re

fining Company with Plant atPerth Amboy. N. J.

"Commerce Reports' announce the es-tabliahment of an entirely new IndustryIn the United States. All arrangementshave been completed for the Importationof Bolivian tin ore by the AmericanSmelting and Reining Company, and a

large plant has besen .rected at PerthAmboy, N. J., for smelting and refiningthe raw material, It will be the firstattempt to establish the industry on a

large scale in the United States,The first definite information that such

an undertaking had been decided uponwas contained in a letter to SecretaryRedfield from William Loeb, Jr.. of theAmerican Smelting , and Refining Com-pany. in which it was stated that a newplant had been practically completed atPerth Amboy for the smelting of tinores and concentrates and the electrolyticrefining of tin. Mr. Loeb stated thatthis country Imports about 45,000 tonsor tin yearly. and of this about 90 percent Is Straits tin, which is consumedlargely in the production of tin plate.The Straits Settlements impose an ex-port duty on tin ores, thus compellingthe reduction to metallic form in thecountry in which it is produced.The Bolivian tin, according to Mr.

Loeb's letter, contains impurities which.with the established methods of smelt-ing, do not produce a tin suitable for tinplate, but the plant at Perth Amboyproposes not only to smelt the impureores from Bolivia and other countries,but to refine the product by the electroly-tic process. A recent analysis of thiselectrolytic tin by experienced chemistsshowed it to run 99.98 per cent pure.while the base metal from which it wasproduced contained only 93 per cent. Forthe manufacture of tin plate this tin ispronounced as good as the best Straitstin.- "In addition to building the plant andpurchasing the South American tin ores,"writes Mr. Loeb, "we are financing theminers by making liberal advances Im-mediately on shipments from SouthAmerica. We hope eventually to be ableto extend our present plant and increasethe business considerably. In the initialsteps of our negotiations to secure thesetin ores, we were greatly helped by theco-operation of the chief of your Bu-reau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce,the Commercial Attache of the Depart-ment In South America, and by the StateDepartment."

FAMOUS WAR PAINTINGON EXHIBITION HERE

"The Battle of Gettysburg," owned byJames Drummond Ball, of Boston, hasbeen put on exhibit in Room 132, at theSenate Office Building, where it is beinginspected by members of Congress andthe public.The Senate Cimmitee on the Library,

of which Senator Luke Lea, of Tennessee,is chairman, arranged for the exhibit ofthe famous picture. There are fourteenother historical paintings by ArtistWalker now hanging in the Capitol orthe War Department. The public hasbeen invited to view the painting nowIn the Senate Office Building.The picture, which portrays twenty-

five square miles of the battlefield ofGettysburg and locates the position andmovements of 175,000 men, showing 0regiments and seventy-eight batteries ofartillery, and containing more figuresthan any other painting in the world, isto be deposited, if purchased by Con-gress, in the Lincoln Memorial. nowbeing built near the Potomac on theSpeedway at a cost of $2,000,000.'The Battle of Gettysburg" is con-

sidered to be the grandest battle sceneever put on canvas, the work requiringeight years. It is historically and artis-tically correct, having been begun byArtist Walker within forty-eight hoursafter the battle, the scenes being de-signed and arranged by Col. Bachelder,the government historian of the battle.and the picture has been approved bymore than 1,000 officers of the Federaland Confederate armies, who visited thebattlefield with Mr. Walker.

WELL-GROOMED WOMENCANNOT BE "HOMELY"

Complexion that Is "Put On" MakesWearer Ridiculous, Says Writer

in Farm and Home.While clothes are an important factor

in one's appearance, it is not the onlyone to be considered. So many busyhousekeepers neglect to pay sufficient at-tention to their own personal appear-ance. We are not all born beauties,neither are we born homely, unless thecase be abnormal. A clean, healthywoman, who carries herself erect, anddresses herself properly, is never home-ly, while on the other hand a slovenly,sickly, cranky person is never pretty,says a writer in Farm and Home. How-ever our features may differ, if we arenormal we all have hands, feet, hair,complexions and figures that need at-tention to keep them In good order andin good shape.The complexion Is generally a pretty

good indication of the health of the in-dividual. A complexion that is "put on'deceives no one and makes the wearronly ridiculous. Some points to be tee-membered by the one who would pre-serve a good complexion are as follows:Keep the bowels regular by naturalmethods. Drink little tea or coffee, butplenty of milk. buttermilk or pure Water.Eat liberally of fruits and vegetables,but rather sparingly of meats and greasyfoods. Exercise regularly in the openair, and sleep enough and in a well-venti-lated room. Wash your face carefullyand thoroughly, morning and evening,using only pure soap, with warm water,followed by a rinsing with cold water.Frequent bathing is conducive to good

health. It keeps the pores of the skinclear, so that they can perform theirproper functions, clearing .the systemof excretions which cannot be di.-charged In other ways. A brisk rubafter the bath promotes circulation ofthe blood.
