HOW IT FEELS TO DIE.

No Terror for Mankind at the Last.

The Bishop of London who has just. recovered from the effects of an operation, has been telling a congregation at St. Pancras Church how it feels to die."

Referring to the Bishop of London's statement, a' Lòndon surgeon says :-

The sensations of patients under the influence of anaestholics differ very widely. Some when in the somi-unconscious state that the Bishop has experienced keep up s flow of talk about quite indifferent subject" while being operated upon. But many undoubtedly have very similar experiencer, and it is no uncommon thing for them to feel as though they had been a

been carried out

of the body, or as if their souls were 'swept swiftly ander the stars.'

But I think it is very doubtful whether these sensations resemble those of dying." In many cases, of course, such as those in which a man is killed by a sudden blow or a rifle bullet, there is no time for thought or feeling at all,

In the majority of deaths from disease the patient gradually lapses into un- consciousness and dies, so far as one can tell, without any consciousness of pain, or even the anxiety about his sins that the Binnen suggests may trouble him.

"There are cizes were a patient makes a desperate fight for life to the end, but these- are very rare. Deathbed horrors exist far more often in the novelist's imagination than in real life.

And this idea is sppported by the deaths of many famous meu: David Hume, the historian, dying without any consolatione roligion afforda, said “there is no joy in lifelike dying."" "Goothe, Germany's great poot, died quiotly asking for "more light." Lord Chesterfield, polite to the last, asked that a gentleman should be given a chair, 1376 King Charles II. apologised for boing "such an unconscionable long time a-dying."

.

Dr Livingstone when in the jaws of a lion, and apparently withlo a few minutes of death, felt no fear-only curiosity to know what the beast would do next; but he attributed this to the strange effect being in the power of such an animal has upon the human race, nota

A man who was blown several yards by a powder explosion, and only recovered consciousness after several hours, said he hand no recollection of being burt or hear.

SHIPBUILDING ACTIVITY.

South America Re-Arming:

In addition to the impetus which the British steel trade expects owing to the re- building of San Francisco, comes the gratifying news that South America is largely increasing her naval armaments, and that a great proportion of the orders thereby created will come to England,

The Argentine Legation in London has sent out specifications for two battleships. and three cruisers, and tenders for the con `struction of these vessels were due on May 10. All the firms with bases in Sheffield are offering for the work. The battleships are to be of about 14,000 tons displacement und the cruisers of about 5000 tons.

As practically all the bigger South American Republics are now in the market for warships, it is clear that the agreement which existed to restrict nuval armaments is not to be renewed. Peru has already two war vessels in course of construction by Moara. Vickers, Sons, and Maxim, at Barrow, Brazil contemplates the building of three battleships, ono of which is almost certain to be built at Barrow, one at Elswick, and one in a Glyde yard. Chili, too, which, of course, cannot afford to be inactive in the face of this activity, is understood to be contemplating a consider she expenditure on new construction.

SEARCHING A CASTLE.

Remarkable Discoveries.

BERLIN, May

The polics authorities of Güstrow, in the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-

strange are investigating a Schwerin. discovery made at Basedow Castle, near Malchin, the residence of Prince Adolf of Vrede, who, at 57 years of age, after divorcing his first wife, a Hungarian lady. married Mine, de Benitez, the widow of an During the last Argentine millionaire.

few years he has lived at Basedow, wher ho maintained a household of thirty vants, under the supervision of a keeper named Fräulein Woidig.

)

A few days ago a young footinan, who had been dismissed from the Prines's service, informed the police that large quantities of stolon goods were hidden in the castle. His statement was at first. received with septicism, it being thought that it was a malicious attempt at revenge for his dismissal. The footman, however, gave minute details, and made' affidavit of The truth of the allegations.

+

The police thereupon searched the castle In the absence of the Prince and Princess, who are travelling in Spain. and found silver plate and linen hearing the names of nine different hotels The quantity of silver found in the castle was so great that it required several large cases For its couvey- ance to the police station of Güstrow, The -ilver includes vegetable dishes, soup ladles, salt-cellars, teaspoons, teapots, milk. jugs, forks, and spoons; and the other stolen articles serviettes and tablecloths. These articles bore the names of several well-known German hotels and five other in different Europunn leading hotels capitals. The police also discovered the decessary impleinents for melting down

-ilver.

The aflair is absolutely inexplicable. The Prince himself is a wealthy man, with extensive estates, and his wife brought him an immense fortune, and still draws n

large income from a commercial enterprise in the Argentine belonging to her late husband.

The annual match between the Ladies Recreation Club and the Hongkong Cricket Club took place of Saturday after- noon at the Cricket Ground, in the presence of a fair number of spectators, many of thom being ladies. Two soresne had been erected to shield specatstore from the sun and they were greatly appreciated, for the afternoon's sun was'extremely hot. During the afternoon the band of the 119th Infantry played several selections.

'L

The Hongkong Club pairs were. B follows: the Brothers Hancock, Pearce and Beattie, and MacPherson and Car peater; while the Ladies Recreation Club played the following gentlemen Norris and Pinckney, Woodward and Whyte, and. Master and Zehrmann. ̧

Some of the matches were exceedingly interesting, especially that between the brothers Hancock and Norrie and Pinckney. At the end of the first six games Norrio and Pinckney lead by 4 to 2, but in the second set the Hongkong Club's represent atives equalled and the two sets finished six games all. Some excellent play was shown in this ntah, close at the net being the special feature and in this Norrie stood out well, though R. Hancock was also excellent.

The dofoat by Pearce and Beattie of Master and Zehrmann came rather as a surprise, and was due in largo measure to want of combination between the latter. Thoy seemed to be in each other way more | often than not.

The match between MacPherson and Carpenter and Master and. Zehrmann was responsible for a considerable amount of laughter, owing to the tricky play of Cap tain Carpenter. For the first half doren games MacPherson and Carpenter seemed to win us they liked, but after changing over to the other side of the net Master. and Zehrmann played botter and steadily wiped off the other's lead, the two neta finishing up six games all. There were some rattling volleys and wet play shown

in these sets.

.

Woodward and Whyte put up a good go against the two Hancocks, being and Pinckney against Pearce and Beattie beaten by even games to five, but Norrie more than equalised and brought the total score to 36 games all.

The Lao Tax Controversy.

The following, from the L, & O. Express, will interest those of our readers who have followed Professor Parker's arguments regard to the genuineness of Lao Tsz: No. 9of Adversaria Sinica (Shanghai: Kolly and Walsh) suggests to us whether the story of Moses was not known in China, Prof. Giles gives us thires extracts from Chinese writers, which suggest that it was not entirely strange to them." It has been said that the Jews carried the Pentateuch to China shortly after the Babylonish cap. tivity. The chief portion of this number deals with Lao. Teu and the Tao Te Ching. For twenty years now Prof. Gllas has maintained that the latter is a forgery.

He brings forward a mass of evidence, and concludes that the "internal evidence of the Tao Te Ching' against ita own genulueness is simply overwhelming." Incidentally he gives some hard nuts to be cracked by Prof. Parker.

Blue Roses at Last.

Blue roses will probably be worn in London during the coming season.

After long and costly experiments, the tower has at last been produced in America, and, although the secret of ob taining the color has not been divulged, everyone will know how to grow blue roses within a few months,

A leading horticulturist told a Lonłoji pressman that the desired tint is given to the blooms by the sole aid of chemistry. The many experiments made have all been costly, and he added that, unless some- thing much cheaper has been used by the American experts, the blue rose will only be obtainable by wealthy people.

With the use of various acids almost any flower could be changed in color, although the best results would be obtained from white flowers, Having no color, they would more readily adopt any tint.

From the experiments already made, it has been found that muriatic acid turned roses red, potash changed them to green, while alum imparted a lilac color.

The American style is said to be the use of an inexpensive powder, which is sprink- led round the soil of the plot after being dissolved in water

The following exciting de'nils of « lion hunt are given in

British East Africa

We had a very fine lion hunt the other day," says the writer; in fnut, it would be impossible to sue wild lions under more favourable ciroumstances.

A party of three (including a lady) were taking a camping, tour, and had shot a lion.

The next day we wont out to the soane of the encounter, but found some hig animal had dragged away the remains of the dead forest king.

"We followed the trail, which ledin to a thick bush. To this we set fire, and out bounded two magnificent male lions, both with long tawny, black manos. We could not, however, get a fair shot at them, and they made off across the veldt like two

Senormous bullocks.

"Our Somali pony men galloped after them and headed them into a bit of very thick bush. We set fire to this, and then the enraged lions cams right at us.

"The lady of the party showed great nervo, and tired at the larger of the lions, her bullet, as we afterwards found, taking. effect in the region of the heart. As this animal made a dying effort to reach us we put a 450 bullet into him, and the huge lion

Follod over and died. His companion got away, and we saw him no more.

"It was a thrilling experience, in which fow women would have shone to such advantage as our plucky companion on this

occasion.'
