An Uncomfortable Island.

The little island of Niceros in the
Greciah Archipelago, is suffering under
a constant supply" of boiling water.
Some months ago, says the Pail Mall
Gazette, the inhabitants were seriously
annoyed by series of earthquakes,
which did much damage, and culmi-
mated in the bursting open of the sum-
init of the highest peak IN the island,
and flood of steam and boiling water,
which at one time led to the appre-
hension that not only would the whole
island be destroyed, but every living
thing contained on it. The mountain,
however, suddenly ceased to boil over,
and it was hoped that for some years at
least there would be no recurrence of
this disagreeable phenomenon. These
hopes were unfortunately dissipated
the other day when the mountain re-
sumed its Objectionable practice, and
emitted such volumes of boiling water
that the position of the island has be-
come almost unbearable. To add to
their discomfort, the ground is CON
vulsed with earthquakes. and at the
date of the latest aelvices the people
had taken to the open fields, where
they were safer than in their lettering
houses. A scarcity of provisions is
added to their other troubles, and
without houses, without food, and with
the prospect of being either scalded or
starved to death, the condition of the
good people of Niceros is at the pres
ent time by no means enviable.

In the Zeitschrift fuer Biologie, DR.
Bunge publishes the results Of his in.
vestigations ms to the amount of salt
requisite for alimentation. He asks
whether animals can be content with
the amount of salt naturally occurring
in their food. or whether they mustnot
get more. II is matter of everyday
observation that herbivorous animals
have a strong liking for salt, while the
carnivora show great rcpugnance 10
sailed food. Still. If we analyze the
food-stufls of both groups, we find that
the food of the herbivora contains in
itself rs much chloride of sodium as
that Of the carniyora but IT further
contains a larger proportion of potash.
Hence Bunge concludes that the pot.
ash salts react ON the chloride of sodium
in the blood, yielding compounds which
are eliminated. In such case the or
genism lacks sodium. and the animal
must take in salt directly. This the
herbiyora do instinctiyely; and this
man too must do. especially when
luguminous vegetables (which contain
u great deal Of POTASH form a large
proportion of his food.

Who Wrote TO Alexis

When Alexis came 10 America, he
was almost overwhelmed with letters
from the fair sex, some of the demi-
monde, but hundreds of young women
moving in the highest circles. Curl
osity prompted him To send home in
charge Of an orderly, five large pack
ages of these Subsequently he learn
ed that the orderly had delivered only
three. Fearing the unworthy servant
meant to make improper use of the re-
naming letters, he caused the detec-
tives to trace him up. He was found
in Belgium, with the stolen letters al
most ready for publication in volume
of 100 pages. lie was arrested on ac-
count of not having procured the
necessary license, hurried across the
Prussian frontier delivered 10 the Rus
sian agents, and after conveyance to
ST. Petersburg. and speedy trial,
set out for life service in the quick
silver mines of Siberia. And SO the
gushing young ladies of America mar
rowly escaped the shame and disgrace
of seeing their letters published for
the amusement of the scandal mongers.

An Immense Casting.

The great crucible steel casting for
the Woolwich new Sl-ton gun was run
at the works of Messrs. Thomas Firth
Il Sons, Sheffield, England, recently.
In its production 1874 men were engaged,
who emptied OPS crucibles, each weigh
ing 20 pounds net, into the casting pit.
The weight of the casting in the rough
is therefore about % tons, its length in
the mould being 13 feet and diameter
II inches. When it has been allowed
to cool IN very gradual manner for
some time, it will be sheathed and ham,
mered by the ELTON Nasmyth hammers
of the firm, until it is of proper size
and suitable density. 1t is destined to
form the interior or tube for the great
piece of ordnance alluded to, and is the
largest steel casting yet turned out. 1t
will be turned, tempered, etc, at Wool
wich. Messrs. Firth's work possess
facilities and appliances for
this class of heavy work. The whole
of the tubes for large guns for the
British government are made by them,
as well ms the bulk of the barrels for
rifles and other steel articles. They
have erected two steam hammers of %
tons each, at cost of oven e33, 900, and
their lathes, boring apparatus, etc,
rank amonr the most powerful and
best finished of the whole world.
