CECROPIA "SHOT"; RINGS OWN ALARM CHICAGO, June 7. (Spl.)—When Samia Cecropia decided to break out of jail last Saturday morning, he unwittingly closed a circuit connected to an electric bell. On the instant some one "shot" him, and as powerful lights had previously been set to illuminate the vicinity, not a detail of the spectacular escape was lost. The moving picture record of the event is complete. This unique jail delivery was staged at the North Evanston studio of the Society for Visual Education. The huge, brilliant-winged moth called Samia Cecropia, or Giant American Silkworm, registered as a star. The prison from which he made his escape was his own warm cocoon. The photographer who recorded the happenings on film was Barnett Harris, who with Lucille V. Berg, the naturalist, is producing a series of natural history films which the Society for Visual Education will circulate among grade and high schools as auxiliaries to text book and laboratory study. Entering the big, airy studio, the reporter heard first the sharp ring of a bell, then the sound of hurrying feet and the steady grind of a moving picture camera. By the time he had crossed the room to the Cecropias corner, a hairy henna-tinted insect had already finished his famous emerging act, had climbed a wiltow twig, and was busily exercising and pumping by way of drying and smoothing out his curled up wings. Nine or 10 other cocoons whose occupants had not yet celebrated their coming-out parties were found fastened with thumb-tacks to an upright board from which stretched a series of wires. Above each cocoon two fine copper wires, connected in circuit with a dry cell and an electric bell, were so arranged that the slightest pressure from below as the moth pushed his way out of the cocoon would close the circuit and set the alarm bell to ringing. In front of the board, lamps adjusted and cameras carefully focused beforehand stood ready for instant use. "As movie actors, Cecropias are among the most temperamental stars in the business," said Mr. Harris, focusing the camera upon the next specimen suspected of designs on freedom, "They take order from only one director—Mother Nature; 'their 'big entrance' is over in just a few lively seconds, and they are constitutionally opposed to encocers. As a result, the camera man who aims to expose their life secrets has need not only of a generous stock but also of a fairly in order that sense of the objection reduced to a mere item, which warrants on inside them to bend back the lights and get it before the mother.

That is why I have devised this simple alarm system, which warns me of what is going on inside the cocoon just in time to bend back the wires, turn on the lights and get the camera into action before the moth emerges. Before the reporter left, two other Cecropias obligingly signified their desires to be "shot." In both cases Miss Berg had spotted the victim a full minute before and was ready to turn the crank. Asked how she was able to "guess" so unerringly, she said: "There is really no guess-work about it. When Mother Nature tells Samia Cecropia that the leaves are out and its time for him to be about his business, he secretes in his mouth a certain juice. This he ejects against the tip of his cocoon. It dissolves the gummy substance on the silken fibers, making it easy for him to move the threads aside and poke his big head through the opening. If you are watching very closely, as I have been doing, that damp spot constitutes your signal. The moth emerges almost immediately."

Touching the body of a male moth with a pencil, she caused him to demonstrate his unique protective weapon—the emission of a liquid which has an odor obnoxious to birds. From a reserve supply of cocoons kept outdoors in a screened enclosure, she replaced the three which had just released their Cecropia tenants. In the warmer atmosphere of the studio the moth emerges earlier than in his normal environment—a fact with a very definite value to those who are build-a film of this character, since any points not perfectly brought out in the first specimens photographed can be worked for again and again, if necessary, by means of the later arrivals. In one part of the studio a camera flanked by powerful lamps was focused upon a very tiny specimen—the nymph or larva of the damselfly, a species of dragon-fly, which climbed up a slender reed in readiness to mount. Here the use of the electric signal, Mr. Harris declared, was out of the question. Because of the extreme smallness of the specimen the wires would need such delicate adjustment that a train passing half a mile away would set them to vibrating. In this case, therefore, the only course open was careful watching guided by the intimate knowledge of the insect's habits that a trained naturalist acquires. A school film picturing the complete life-history of the mosquito, from egg to insect is practically ready for release, and among others in production ar creels on toads, wasps, and such members of pond communities as cadis files, dragon-files, crawfish, turtles, "water-boatmen" or "back-swimmers," and various aquatic bugs. Pac. Coast Center of Astronomical Study California and the Pacific Coast are becoming the center of astronomical research of the world, at least if the matter of observatory equipment, according to Robert Grant Altken, astonomer of Lick Observatory. "The three largest reflecting telescopes of the world and one of the two largest refracting telescopes with other powerful instruments, some of them unique in design, are located on the Pacific Slope," says Mr. Altken. "This is not an accident, but the logical result of the fact that the atmospheric conditions to be found at such stations as Mount Hamilton and Mount Wilson, Calif., Flagstaff, Ariz., and Victoria, B. C., are exceptionally favorable to astronomic observation. The Lick, Lowell, Next in 1800 borax was discovered in the mountain country of the Italian volcanoes whose steam was caught and condensed and borax recovered from it. Bales and kegs of the precious crystals were carried on the heads and basks of the peasants down to the ships which transported it not only to the goldsmiths of the world, but to the physicians, for now it had been learned that borax and the boracic acid which is in it were valuable in medicine. Next California comes into the story, and borax crusts gathered up on the deserts were refined. In Death Valley, where the thermometer was sometimes 140 degrees in shade, men toled to gather and purify the borax and mule teams hauled it 120 miles to the railway at Mo have, a hundred and twenty miles so arid and dangerous that back of every wagon train rumbled the water cart, on which teamand drivers must depend for their lives. The old borax road is still marked by the bones of men less careful who died of thirst. Not many years ago the last of the mule teams made its final trip. Thru the enterprise of "Borax" Smith a railroad in to the deposits of borax ore and steam replaced the mules. Now again there is to be a change. "Borax" Smith was deposed from his control of borax in 1914, but he did not "stay dead." Early this year he acquired the newsly discovered borax vein in Clark County, Nevada, the largest known vein in the world, and within a few weeks Smiths fleet of auto trucks will be hauling borax out from this deposit over a highway now under construction. First by caravans of camels, then on the backs of men, next by mule teams toiling over waterless wastes, by railroad and now by modern auto trucks, borax comes from its remote hiding places to be passed across drug store counters-by clerks who seldom realize what a romantic thing they sell.
