HYpRoPHoB1A IN FRUIT.
Poisonous Peaches IN Iadia-A Wonderful G
eHrreDce 0f Lucgllon-.

Poisonous Peaches IN Ipdia-A Wonderful De-
eUrrence at LUek1'oo.
Two native gardeners and a little boy
having been suddenly seized with alarm
ing spasms, accompanied By foaming at
tho mouth, after eating a quantity Of
peaches, the Englishman to whom the
peach orchard belonged forthwith pro-
ceeded to analyze the fruit. To his
horror, the Juice was found to contain q
considerable proportion of poisonous
virus, discovery which naturally led to
a close examination of the tree from
which the fruit was gathered. After in
specting the leaves, the branches, even
the bark, with no scientific results, one
OF the examining party suggested that
the roots should be uncovered. This
being done, the origin of the poison at
once came to light. Being anxious to
enrich the soil of the orchard, the gar
deners had buried dead dogs under
many of the trees, including the one On
which the deadly peaches had grown.
Under its roots lay the carcass of a de-
funct pariah, proved by appearances to
have died of hydrophobia. After this
discovery there could be no doubt about
the source from which the fruit derived
its poisonous qualities. The virus of
hy2rophObia had first impregnated the
soil, next the sap of the tree, and sub
sequently transmitted itself to the fruit.
Yet the poison appears to have lost some
of its power in transit, since it is related
that the three patieuts "were success
fully treated and all recovered. -

Ice Rivers.

The varying condition of vast bodies
of ice in the upper valleys of the Alps,
and other high mountains and highlands
of polar regions, has of late been of
much interest 10 students of natural
history, as tending to develop a general
law. 1t has been fully ascertained that
these great bodies of ice move slowly
but regularly, even on an inappreciable
grade, and thus continue to move at the
rate of about eight inches per day.
The flow of water is said to depend on
gravity, the particles benz free to move
independent of cohesion. But ice be-
ing very firm solid, it is troubling
scientists to know what other force be
sides gravity makes the ics rivers or
glaciers move toward the ocean. There
is no doubt that many such rivers now
exist in the frigid zones. The numer-
GUS icsburGs, annually drifting south
ward, being due to, and formed mostly
from them, as they continually plunge
into the sea and float Off in detach-
ments.
The moving force of ics rivers is pro-
digious, oltontimes sweeping whole
forests, villages and other things before

They even clip Off vast portions of
