Readers ot "The Thousand and One

Wak-Wak," and the marvelous adven
tures of Hassan of Balsbra and the
princess with the dress of feathers.
Dr. Alfred Russell Wallace suggests
that the islands were real, and that
they can be identified with the Aru Isl
ands, the home of the great bird of
paradise. The name "Wak-Wak," he
thinks, may be an imitation of the call
of the birds, and the story of Hassan's
visit to the islands of Wak-Wak may
be based on the actual adventures of
some traveler who discovered the
haunts of the birds ot paradise.

MEASURING THE EARTH.
Recent Appliances Used ia the Science
' Geodesy.'
The science of geodesy is making
rapid strides along the line of accur
acy and there is not much left to be
perfected in the way of method, says
the Philadelphia Record. The all-Important
problem of modern as well as
ancient geodesy, of course, is the
measurement of the dimensions of the
earth, which enters into all practical
work of surveying, navigation and ter
restrial physics. The International
Geodetic Association several years ago
undertook the problem, the different
nations having agreed to contribute
their share toward an accurate deter
mination. As has already been record
ed, the determination was undertaken
In Ecuador, in 1901, and extended
from the Colombian to the Peruvian
frontier, and every possible refinement
to attain the maximum degree of ac
curacy was adopted. The greatest dif
ficulty Is to secure an accurate base
line, which is complicated by so ap
parently trivial a thing as the expan
sion of the measbrlng medium. The
latest refinement In the bar method is
that originated by the United States
coast and geodetic survey, using a sin
gle bar Immersed in melting ice, the
containing trough being carried on a
suitable car upon a temporary track.
Later still, M. Gulllaume discovered
an alloy of 64 per cent steel and 36
per cent nickel possessed an exceed
ingly low coefficient of expansion and
consequently offers the best medium
for accurate base-line measurements.
This alloy is known as "invar" and is
usually employed in the form of a wire
supported by tripods and stretched by
a definite weight A very valuable
piece of work on' the island of Spits
bergen was completed with the use of
this alloyed wire.
Even the infinitesimal variation in
the force of gravity at different por
tions of the earth is not too insignifi
cant to be regarded and must be de
termined and a correction applied.
This delicate determination is made by
observing the pressure of the atmos
phere by the determination of the boll
lng point of water and comparing the
same with the barometric reading, the
difference, if any, being considered
due to a variation In the action of the
force of gravity upon the mercury.
ALL ABOUT THE BIBLE.
Washington Library Well Stocked with
Lore of the Book.
It may be an interesting fact to
some people that the Bible is one of
the reference books in the Washington
Public Library, that four shelves are
filled with an excellent assortment of
biblical literature, and that every Sat
urday one or more ministers of the
gospel seek this place of books to look
up references for the sermons' with
which they Instruct the public from
their pulpits on Sunday morning.
Information concerning the Bible is
about as limited as can be. Probably
very few persons, if told that the 11
brary contains the "three versions of
the Bible" would be able to say what
these three versions are. In point of
fact they are the Douay, the King
James aud the American version.
Ever since the events that . made
biblical history occurred have accounts
of these same been wlrtton. And as
civilisation spread and gave rise to
new people speaking new tongues,
these earlier accounts were translated
into dtfferent tongues to meet human
needs. j
In the first place, there Is in the li
brary a book which contains all the
English .translations from the original
Greek test The book Is called the
English Hexapla. The Greek text oc
cupies the upper part of the pae and
the six translations are aide by side
in columns underneath. .These trans
lations are the Wlcllf, published in
13S; the Tyndall. lu 1534; the Craw-
mer, 1539: the Geneva, 1557; the
Rheems,-l&S2, and the authorized ver
sion, 1611.
What la called the Douay version Is
made up of the New Testameut, pub
lished In Rhelms in 1582, and ot the
Old Testament of the Douay version.
published In 009 A. D.. This is the
Bible ot the Catholics. It was publish
ed with the approbation of Cardinal
Gibbons by the great Catholic publish
ers, the John Murphy Company, New
York. The title page bears the inscrip
tion: "Printers to the holy see,"
When the early translations of the
Bible were being made, history was
unfolding Itself at a rapid rate tn the
British empire. Much of the work was
done by Protestants, who were driven
into exile for their religious beliefs.
Tbe Geneva translation was the out
come of such an exile.
After Henry VIII.'s stand against
the Pope, the cause of Catholicism
as the established religion was a lost
one, but it was not until later, during
the reign of King James, that the au
thorised version of 101 1 was translat
ed for use in the Church of England.
The American version Is the King
James version revised, annotated and
brought up to date. "
, Other books of reference here are
the Cyclopedias of Biblical Literature,
the Jewish Cyclopedia, commentaries
of various sorts and concordances. A
Catholic dictionary contains a descrip
tion of the doctrines and rites of thts
church, and was published in England.

TOBACCO IN GERMANY.
Over 7.OO0 Factories Which Employ
- About 200,000 Workmen.
The use of machinery of German,
French and American designs is com
mon in the better factories for all pro
cesses of tobacco and cigar manufac
ture where machinery has been found
practicable. Inquiries- made would in
dicate a desire on the part of the cigar
and tobacco manufacturer to avail
himself of labor-saving devices as far
as possible. Ten trade journals de
voted to tobacco are published In Ger
many and are extensively used for ad
vertising machinery and other appll
ances used by the trade.
Tbe feeling of hostility and alarm
aroused by the Introduction of Ameri
can and British capital, especially in
cigarette manufacture. In Germany
has not wholly subsided. The multi
tude f small manufacturers in conn-'
try villages and elsewhere over ",
000 factories and 200,000 workers, of
whom 160,000 are on cigars, is referred
to by the press as the surest defense
against any general consolidation of
the tobacco business of the empire.
This feature of Genman manufactur
ing is one sure to attract the notice of
an American resident and undoubted
ly is to be -taken into account in any
survey of manufacturing in the em
pire. - '
Portions of Baden and that part of
Bavaria known as the Rhine Pfalz
form one of the largest and by far the
most Important tobacco region of the
empire. Baden Itself leads all the
German States In acreage planted in
tobacco and in tbe importance of Its
cigar manufacture. Recently publish
ed statistics for the department of fac
tory inspection for Baden show that
the number of cigar factories in Ba
den was 729, giving employment to
33,720 workmen, or more than in any
other branch ot manufacturing in tbe
grand duchy. New York Tribune.
