Ville In OM London (By Canadian Press) London, July 13.--A story, strongly reminiscent 'of Miss Havisham, of Satis House, in Dickens' "Great Ex- pectations" is connected with a small villa at Bush Hill Park on the north side of London. Fo rtwo years the house has been left to decay; the furniture is rotting and the once charming garden is over-grows. Exactly twe years ago, Miss Mc- Cloy, the last occupant was found dead in the house: she had died some weeks before her body was discov- ered, but there were no signs of foul lay. . P No relatives could be traced. The keys are held by the coroner's pf- ficer, and Miss McCloy's jewels and investment: i over $5000-- are held by the' Treasury. : It is said that Miss McCloydike Miss Havisham--received on - the {morning of her wedding day a letter from her lover saying that he had his mind, and was going abroad. She was broken-hearted, but could mot, apparently, stifie her love. Roses, the favorite flower of her faithless lover, were the only blooms | she would grow in her garden: his photograph Was ever on her wall, and it is believed that she left him all her property.

The "Battle oi Chilhowee Moun- tain," where an average of 20 thun- der storms a month occuf, the engin- cers say, will reveal characteristics of lightning which scientists have sought for centuries. The camp will be lo- cated at Chota, Tennessee, West- inghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company engineers will make up the army, Norinder oscillographs, osisios, klydonogigphs and cameras will pro- vide the heavy artillery, The appar- atus, using the power lines of the Aluminum Company of America, will cover a five mile wilderness, The interest of scientists is centred on the oscillograph, brought to this country by Dr. Harold Norinder after eight years work in Sweden as engineer and head of the research hureau of the Royal Board of Water- falls in Stockholm. He is now a Westinghouse consulting engineer, The oscillograph operates much like the hidden automatic cameras by which wild animals are made to snap their own pictures. Installed on the power line, it keeps watch without attention. Any sort of lights ning, from the smallest spark to a 100: million flash a half mile long, leaves an exact record of its perform- ance. The device measures the rate of rise of the voltage surge, the maxi- mum voltage attained, the duration of the change and the rate of decrease. It is so sensitive that it records surges which have an ephemeral life of only a ten millionth of a second --the time taken for an ordinary rifle bullet to travel the thickness of two hairs, engineers say. _The moving parts consist of a beam of cathode rays which are bent here and there by electrical attraction to leave their mark on a drum of photos graphic film spinning at 100 revolu- tions per second. The entire appar- alus operates in a vacuum. The klydonographs will record the maximum shock received by. the transmission line and thus supple- ment the oscillograph records. Osisos will function as part of distance find- ers to tell the operators how far dis- tant from the power line the light- ning flashed. The cameras will re- cord any lightning within their range. All devices are automatic. Oncom- ing thunderstorms will give warning by ringing a bell calling the engineers into action. KIPLING KNOWS OF HABITS OF MAMMALS (By Canadian Pres) a Washington, D.C., July N=Kipling apparently knows more mails than - most ~poets. Accurate references in his verse to 70 species are cited in a communi- cation to the American Society cf Mammalogists by Dr. Marcus Ward Lyon, zoologist, bacteriologist and pathelogist of South Bend, Ind, former assistant curator of the di- vision of mammals of the U. 5. Na- tional museum. "Some of them are just mentioned by mame," he says, "but even at that the verses in which they occur woald lack a great deal in vividness 'with- out them. Every one is appropriately placed. Many of them are species that the brdinary poet makes little use of, 4 "The mammals seem to have been selected geographically from all con- tinents and his zoo-geography is al- ways accurate." it mam- A physician states that the state spe: twice as much on wild life as upon child life.

The expedition is being undertaken at -the instance of Rear Admiral Frederick C. Billard, commandant of | the ;Coast Guard: in. the interest of the. scientific work of the. Interna- tional Ice Patrol, in which a dozen maritime nations are associated. He has ordered that the best of the sefyice's new 125-foot steel . patrol boats be selected for the 4,000-mile voyage and, recognizing the perils likely to be encountered in the praci- cally unknown sea, has directed that the safety of the rew shall be the f | primary consideration of the officers, Lieutenant Commander Edward H, Smith, one of the most noted ocean ographers in the government service, who has been with the ice patrol for ten years, will be in command, Lieutenant N. G. Rickotts, scientific observer of the International Ice "Patrol, will be second in command, and the crew of '18 is being assem- bled from volunteers and of the Coast Guard selected for good seamanship and scientific inclinations From. Boston the expedition will proceed to Sydney, Nova Scotia, and then strike out on a voyage which is expected to keep them out of sight of land for the greater part of six weeks or two months.

A 'special fathometer will be 'in- stalled on the hull of the vessel to ascertain the contours of the sea bottom by measuring the time it takes a sound wave to travel down and back through the water. Such soundings will be made about every 25 miles and will give the first com- prehensive idea ever obtained of the ocean bed in this region. Not only is a complete occano- graphic chart to be sought, but ac- curate knowledge of the plant and animal life in the sea, the currents which govern the movement of ices bergs southward into the shipping lanes and the prevailing wind and weather conditions. This information is expected to be of great value to the hydrographic office of the navy, the Bureau of Fisheries and the Weather Bureau. w These government agencies have been invited to make suggestions to the expedition officers, who will co.
