    Notes: [Auszug] THE old yarn about the tainting of wine in bottle by the common Indian shrew (Crocidura coerulea)) seems to die hard, since “W. T. B.” has had to correct it again in your issue of this week. The account of a crucial and deliberate experiment may be another nail in its coffin. I kept wine ...

    Notes: [Auszug] WHEN the Prince of Wales reviewed great squadrons at the Jubilee review, only one gentleman from Wimbledon, and myself, recorded hearing the salutes near London. I think it worth while, therefore, to note that what seemed to be the thumping sound of heavy guns was to be heard here to-day, from ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN answer to your note upon the distances at which Saturday's salute was heard (NATURE, July 1, p. 204), I have to say that I heard what I suppose was the salute here in Chelsea. I took it at first for distant thunder, and went to look at the sky and barometers. The newspaper reports ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IF mechanical screws “bear” upon natural spirals, as of the Gasteropoda (NATURE, May 27, p. 79), it may be worth while to observe that sinistral forms survive in art, as in nature. The silversmiths of Western India still commonly use a. sinistral screw of very primitive form, a pin with a ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IT may interest your correspondent, Dr. Otis T. Mason, to know that the curved “drawing-knife” described by him has representatives in Western (British) India. The Kolis (fishing races) of the Bombay coast wore lately, and some still wear, knives made by local blacksmiths, of which the blade, 2 ...

    Notes: [Auszug] I HAVE had occasion to live for many months of several years close to a well that was sometimes affected by the tide like that at Newton Nottage (NATURE, May 12, p. 45). This was at Alibag, a few miles south of Bombay. The bed-rock is a sheet of basalt of rather uneven surface, sloping ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN your issue of May 13 (p. 46), a writer mentions some Australasian boomerangs as thrown not to return (if I have rightly understood him). I had not heard of these before, but in British India at least one race, the Kolis of Northern Gujarat, have the like. These are invariably of “fish” ...

    Notes: [Auszug] BESIDES the passage in Aelian about the Scolopendra cetus, quoted in your paper of September 9 by Mr. Minakata, there are epigrams of Theodoridas of Syracuse, and Antipater of Sidon (third and second centuries B.C.), referring to something of the sort. Aristotle's marine Scolopendra—a small ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THERE is a slip of the pen, or of memory, in the description of the shrine of Boro Budur, in Java, as “rock-hewn,” in your issue of yesterday (p. 228). The shrine is indeed a natural hill, but cased in cut masonry, which bears all the sculptures. I happen to possess the great Dutch work on it, ...
