The BoRERs OF THE SEA. Many
stories are current as to how inventors
have borrowed or stolen their ideas from
Nature, and there has been much in
genious discussion as to whether hints
thus appropriated are properly patent
able. Boring is an example of natural
processes that have been thus used by
art, and it is remarkable that the lowest
creatures are the most skillful mechan-
les in this particular. An eminent liv-
ing inventor, who has made fortune
out of patent augur, hit upon the
method followed by the most successful
insects which bore into hard wood.
And so we are assured that the cele-
brated engineer, Brunei, in construct
ing the Thames Tunnel, but initiated
the shell-lined burrow of the Teredo
naralis, or ship worm. This mollusk
in shape resembles a worm, and sur
rounds itself with she'll open at both
ends. From the mouth it can protrude
its short foot, and the other extremity
of its body; the "tail p" is bifurcated,
one prong being the inspirator, and the
other the expirator tube of the siphon
which constitutes the animals nutritive
apparatrs.-Popular Science Monthly.

it being bit of experience, gathered
from the Paris Exposition, that the
lighting from above exclusively is I'M
satisfactory. The general hues used in
the decoration-which is of the Floren-
tine Renaissance style are blue and
gold, which, relieved by dark red pillars,
have a very brilliant effect. Since No

sufficiently advanced for visitors to be

quired has already Melted considera-

Oriental city.
There is one respect in which the
Vienna Exposition will far surpass in
interest any other that has ever been
held-that is, the varieties of races and
costumes which will be witnessed at it.
A visit to that city even in ordinary
times is equal to year of chronological
study. Of the two great navigable
water paths between Europe and the
East-the Adriatic, with Trieste at its
head, and the Danube, with Vienna for
its portal-this is the one along which
the historic development of commerce
and civilization has taken place. The
Turkish Jews, who, driven out of Spain,
had to find among the followers of Mo-
manned the protection which the fol-
lowers of Christ denied them, became
the chief agents of the great current Of
trade between Asia and Europe. They
still use Spanish as their regular Ian
guage, while they wear at least the
men do-the Oriental costumes, which
makes their entrance into Turkey more
easy. At the same time there is blend
ed with this costume most oddly certain
antique Syrian vestments. (Among
those banished from Spain was patri-
arch who then took the name of Disra-
eli, the founder of the family which has
became historical in England.) The
streets of Vienna are agreeably varied
with Armenians and Russians (reaily
Hungarians), all of whom are engaged
in plying between Vienna and the East,
but are usually habited in the styles
which are most adapted to the Asiatic
cities, where dress is of more impor-
lance to free and easy intercourse.
Nevertheless, as those who have visited
Asia Minor, or even Little Russia alone,
we'll know, these international costumes
have some features of compromise, and
it will be at the great Exposition that
the real masquerade of all the costumes
of the East will perpetually move along
the streets of Vienna.-Harper's Mag.

men with ability to comprehend, and means to con-

NxwsoUncE OF FUEL suppLr.-The

NKwSoURcE OF FUEL SUPPLr.-The
great drawback to cheap manufacturing
in San Francisco has, heretofore, been
the great cost for fuel. This obstacle,
there is good reason for believing, will
soon be at least measurably removed, a
very valuable deposit of coal having late
" been discovered in the hills back of
Oakland, and not more than thirteen
miles distant from this city. Upon the
fact being announced, it became, as the
Eyening Bulletin remarked at the time,
the interest of somebody to start the re-
port that the quality of coal was poor.
and that the discovery would probably
not amount to much. But it turns out
that the coal is of very good quality,
better indeed, than any before found in
that county, and that there is an album
dance of it. The engineer of the pro-
jected narrow-gauge road from Oakland
to these coal fields says that were he
guaranteed liberal interest in the mines
intersected he would build the road
without dollar of cost to Alameda or
Contra Costa counties. These discov-
cries insure the construction of the road
by somebody. The cheapening of coal
to the extent of dollar ton is mat
ter of great importance to this city.
Anthracite coal in round lots has been
sold in Pennsylvania at tide water as low
as 81 so to IS ton. But our poorest
kind for steam purposes is rarely sold
bere below IS; and two tons of the lat
ter are only equal to one of the former.
The pinch is here: coal, as compared
with Eastern prices and qualities, is
nearly 100 per cent. dearer in San Fran
cisco than in Philadelphia and New
York. With dear coal and dear water,
is it any wonder that manufacturing in
terests struggle along here from year to
year, Every discovery and every
movement tending to make the cost Of
these prime necessities cheaper, is Of
the greatest consequence to this city
The Oakland Transcript declares that
the coal discovered in the foot has
the appearance of English camel coal
and is superior to any found on the coast
Abating this extravagant estimate some
what, it is still true that there are ex-
tensive veins of coal much nearer tc
Oakland and San Francisco than most
have supposed. With down grade
from the foothills to Oakland, and a
short tow across the Bay, coal may very
soon be laid down 81 ton cheaper in
this city than ever before. So many
important coal discoveries are being
made, from Arizona to Alaska, that we
have good reasons for believing that
within few years coal will be as cheap
in San Francisco as in any city in the
Union.
Now, will somebody discover and in
troduce cheap waters This being done,
there will be new era of manufactur-
ing in San Francisco.-The West.

STRANGE LOVE STORY


The Duluth (Minn.) Herald, of the 28th
ultimo, gives a romantic account of the
fading In the pine forests on CloSnet
river, two weeks ago, of a young man,
formerly clerk In a Broadway jewelry
store. 1t appears that a party of ex-
plorers, while at supper, heard a melodi.
Gus voice, singing "No one to love, none
to caress."
For few moments they were at loss TO
discover from whence the melody came,
but on peering through a thicket, which
lay to the moth of them, they discovered
young man apparently about five and
twenty years old, approaching. The tall,
slender, and rather good-looking fellow
wore a Mackinae coat, fur cap, and Ger
man socks and moccasins. On coming
up to them he passed the compliments of
the evening, and was about to pass when
the explorer asked him If he wouldn't
stop and take cup of coffee. At FIRST he
declined the eivility, but the request being
urged he finally consented to accept.
This singular reciuse, on being pressed
for reason for his strange mode of life,
stated
belong to New York city, and my
parents now reside on Third avenue.
About two years ago | made the aequaint-
ance Of Miss Henderson, an actress, who
plays under an assumed name. She was
about as sweet girl, so far as looks went,
as ever the sun shone upon. II Is need
less to tell you that, after a years court
ship, she consented to be my wife. All
the preparations for our marriage were
made, but just one week prior TO the day
on which we were to be united a lady
! friend Informed my mother that l was
about to be most terribly disappointed.
Being asked in what way, this lady handed
a note from Miss Henderson to my mother,
In which she (Niss Henderson, admitted
| falling from virtue some three years be-
fore, and begging my mother to disclose
1t TO me through my father. The letter
further stated that she, my bttrothed,
could never again see me. This dreadful
news, of course, came to my ears In a very
short time after 1t had been impaired to
my mother, ] knew not what to do, and
finally wandered out here In the hope that
l might In solitude forget my heart-sick
troubles. But / have not. l have lived
IN this region for nearly four months
almost wholly sustaining myself-by my
gun and hshlng rod.
The men went on to say that his ten
was about three miles from the spot wherl
be was being regaled that he did not
know how long he should remain bu
that, after having his hopes blasted, HI
intended to live away from the snares OF
both man and womankind. As far al
could be cleaned from some desultory re-
marks nude by him before leaving thi
exploring camp, which he did just at twi
light, this disappointed lover had been {
clerk In some jewelry establishment OF
Broadway, New York,
