The chain gang is gradually becoming
more popular. None but the most aban-
doned and incorrigible white and black
men are placed on the gang to work on
the streets. The establishment of city

Some friend to that portion of human.
ity suffering from prickly heat insists
that warm water freely used dissolves the
salts under the skin, and cures the

effect. The theory may be true, and the

person insists that it is merely washing
the body and keeping it clean, we are
willing to admit that it is open to that
captious objection. itlf i

A story is going the rounds among the
dog fanciers of the city that Hod Morses
dog, Pinch" Scotch terrier, walked
into the room where Morse lay dead,
howled several times, got up on a chair
near his masters face (which chair was
placed in position by dog fanciers), laid
his face on that of Morse's, and endeav-
ored to awaken the dead. What q pic

near the dead by way of experimenting

which made this and several other scenes
resemble a melodrama.

its practical application was made by Al.

Every one knows what glycerine is-a
clear, syrupy liquid, sweet to the taste
and somewhat greasy to the touch. Its
scope of employment ranges from the
surgeons dispensary to the lady's boudoir.
Chemists term it a triatomic alcohol, and II
may be derived from fat of tallow by the
action of lime and sulphulic acid. Its
properties are many and various, but as
they have no bearing upon the present sub
ject, we shall abstain from noticing them.
ia quantity of nitric acid be added to
twice its weight of sulphuric acid, gly-
eerine be poured into this, and carefully
stirred-the whole being surrounded By
a freezing mixture-we obtain that wonder.
fol substance known as nitro, glycerine,
which has more than ten times the explo.
sive force of gunpowder. 1t forms ON the
surface as an oily liquid of o pale yellow
color, is perfectly inodorous, and has a sweet
aromatic taste. 1t is poisonous, whether
taken internally or absorbed through the
skin, and small doses of it produce dis
treSsing headaches.
1t does not explode when brought in
contact with fire, and remains unchang.
ed even when raised to the temperature of
boiling water; but at about 40 degrees
Fahrenheit it becomes converted into an
icy mass, which merely requires friction
