Remarkable Discovery Of Coal.

Some wonderful coal discoveries have
just been made in Ell Dorado Canon, IL
few miles southeast of Dayton. A short
time since there occurred flood in the
canon which swept away the toll-road
leading up along its channel, and tore
things to pieces generally. The road be-
ing washed away, it appears that no one
tried to travel through the ravine. A
day or two since, however, the Virginia
City Coal Company whose mine is well
up toward the head of the canon, sent
some of the employees out to examine
the road i'll order to see if it were posi-
bic to repair it. In travelling down the
canon these men came to place where
the water had torn up and swept out the
whole bed of the stream, exposing an
immense bed of coal. The coal had been
torn up and washed down the stream,
and there remains regular pavement of
it across the canon for considerable dis.
lance along its course. As yet they
have not dug through the bed to ascer-
{ i'll its thickness Virginia (NcU.)

A Chance for the Scientists.

The terrible calamities which have
overtaken number of towns IN the Mis-
sissippi valley are due to destructive
storm agency, which, in its cause ana
origin, is a mystery. Previous to hfteen
wears ago violent storms were common
in that region of country, but 1t has only
been within that period that there have
been such tremendous commissions OF
the elements as have almost Obliterated
some of the Western towns. Houstonla,
in Missouri, was smitten In this way re-
Gently, and hardly one stone left standing
upon another. This visitation was, III It's
main features, similar to those which
leveled buildings at Alton, East 81. LOUIS
and number of rural neighborhoods III
Missouri and Illinois. A small cloud,
"no bigger than mans hand, rises
above the rim of the horizon, rapidly
grows in size, and sending out long arms
of dense vapor, which touch the surface
of the earth, moves straight on It's line
of march with inconceivable swiftness
and strength. The width of the track is
not usually more than $50 to 800 yards.
Outside of these limits not the least III
jury is done, but inside of them the de-
struction is complete. The force is so
irresistible that the hugest forest trees
are overthrown as if they were saplings,
and on one occasion locomotive was
overturned. The power is equal to that
of the most intense tropical hurricane,
but thermometrical conditions seem to
have nothing to do with these North
American tornadoes, as they appear in
differently i'll summer or winter. 1t is
suggested III the West that science should
examine into the strange demonstrations
of mysterious power. Coming almost
with the speed of light, doing its work
in few minutes, and departing as quick
ly as it came, there is necessarily but a
small chance for the observation OF the
phenomena, but the meteorological
scientists would probably be able to
make valuable discoveries even in the
face of such obstacles.

Receipts.
Shipments.


The grain markets have been quite active
during the past week-that is for the leading
cereals-spring wheat and corn At times con-
siderable excitement prevailed and II liberal
speculative business was transacted The
bull" interest seemed to have the
control of the trade, and, as might
be expected. they used their best
efforts to force higher range of prices, to the
serious discontinue of the " shorts, some of
whom were compelled to ''lay down under the
force of circumstances, procedure which
naturally ended in increasing the excitement.
The continued unfavorable condition of the
weather and the favorable tone of the advices
received from Liverpool and New York gave en-
couragement to holders, making them tirmer in
their views and less anxious to realize The
same influences created some alarm on the part
of "shorts" and made them anxious to pro-
vide for their outstanding contracts. Spring
wheat advanced about sc per bu. The
prospects of increased and frequent fluctuations
in values stimulated an increased desire on
the part of outside parties to speculate, and
numerous buying and selling orders were re-
Gel Sed from the interior. Corn sympathiZed with
the fluctuations in wheat, closing very firm at
outside quotations, although wheat closed
easier. Oats. rye and barley ruled compare
lively quiet, the excitement in the leading
grains detractng from the interest. Prices
however, were firm and invariably higher, trad
ing generally in options.
The following table shows the current quota

Precautions Against Fire.

If Kerosene just purchased can be
made to burn in saucer by igniting
with a match, throw it away. Put wire
work over gaslights in show windows
sprinkle sand instead of sawdust on
floors of oil stores keep shavings and
kindling wood away from steam boilers
and greasy rags from lofts, cupboards,
boxes, etc. see that all stovepipes enter
well in the chimney, and that all lights
and fires are out before retiring or leav-
ing places of business keep matches in
metal or earthen vessels, and out of the
reach of children ; and provide piece of
stout rope, long enough to reach the
ground, i'll every chamber. Neither
admit any one if the house be on fire,
except police, firemen, or known neigh
bors ; nor swing lighted gas brackets
against the wall nor leave small chill
dren in n room where there are matches
or an open fire nor deposit ashes in n
wooden box or on the floor nor use
light in examining the gas meter. Never
leave clothes near the fireplace to dry
nor smoke or read in bed by candle or
nor put kindling wood to dry
on top of the stove nor take light
into a closet nor keep burning or
other infiammable fluids in rooms where
there is fire nor pour out liquor near
an open light nor allow smoking about
barns or MISUNDERSTANDING Ameri-
can.

Facts About Flour.

That excellent practical paper, the
Boston Journal Of Chemistry, in a we'll
considered article on the effects of fine
-four, says:
''At the present time it is the practice
to a large extent among millers to grind
the finest, soundest wheat into fine
flour, and the poorest into what is called
Graham flour. This term Graham
flour ought no longer to be used. 1t
is kind of general name given to mkt
res of bran and spoiled flour, to a
large extent unfit for human food. What
we need is good, sweet, wheat flour.
finely ground, and securely put up for
family use.
"This article we do not find in the
market, and the Western miller who will
give his earnest attention to furnishing
such flour will realize fortune speedily.
The brown loaf made from whole wheat
is to our eye as handsome as the white.
1t can be made with all the excellencies
of the white, 30 far as hghtness is con-
cerned, and it is sweeter and more pal
atable. With this loaf we secure all the
nutritive principles which the
Creator. for wise reasons, has stored in
wheat.
