Thus effectually proves their assertions to be false
BY another dodge however, they seek to give
their statement 3 semblance of truth, by laying
great stre IS upon the fact that Hardy and bis part

thereby 10 hoodwink the trade and the public into
the belief that they really have some knowledge OF

TERRIBLE REACTION ON BURGLAR.
A burglar broke into palatial resi-
dence, chloroformed the inmates, got
possession Of an United States bond
looking box, fAtened with brass pad
lock. and carried three miles into the
country before he ventured to open it,
and then when he found in it only a cut
paper pattern for lady's night dress, he
threw his dark lantern into the creek,
and, swallowing his skeleton keys, died

The SALT IN OoEAN.-Superf1cial OBJ
servers formerly assumed that the salt
ness Of the ocean was due to the beds
of rock-salt washed by its waters; but
q little examination will prove that this
is putting the effect for the cause, since
the beds of salt themselves, wherever
found, give sufficient evidence that they
are but the deposits of ancient oceans
or isolated bodies of sea water that have
dried up. The modern scientific theory
refers the salt in the ocean to the chem
ical changes which have taken place be-
tween the elements that constitute the
earth's crust in former geological per-
iods. The sea water also contains gold
and silver. Gold exists in nearly one
grain to ton of water, and is held in
solution bY iodide Of calcium. Silver
will deposit itself on the coppering of
ships until it is actually found profita-
BILE to melt up the copper from old ships
and extract the more valuable metal. It
is estimated that the entire body Of sea
water holds more than 1900, 900 tons of
pure silver.-Nslo York Journal Of Com.

perfected, though on that point we have no
doubts. As to the other. there areso ma

We believe the delegates from Drsnge

characterized them in the pas. and We know
It will govern them IN the future for there
is that sound seuse amoog our people that

A COOPERATIVE EXPERIMENT.

In Scribner for May, Charles Barnard
has a paper on "Some Experiments in
Cooperation" in which he speaks as fol-
lows of the Springfield (Vt.) Industrial
Works, successful cooperative enter
prise:
At the benches are yeung men and
women in about equal numbers, distrib-
uted according to the demands of the
work or their own ability. Precisely as
in every manufactory there is regular
system Of work and perfect subdivision
Of labor. BY the peculiar method Of Sc
lection, each one has the work that the
majority think he or she is best suited to
perform consistent with the best interests
Of the establishment. Ga going through
the various departments, one cannot fail
to notice The quiet and order that pre-
vail. There is rigid adherence TO bust
ness that is positively refreshing. Per-
sons familiar with working people in
mills and shops can readily recall that
callnness of manner, and ingenuity 10
doing nothing with apparent energy
that characterizes them. Not trace Of
this can be seen in the Industrial Works.
The sun goes down, the lamps are
lighted, and the work goes on without a
pause il is hammer, hammer, hammer,
with all the regularity and twice the en-
ergy OF clock. The whirling shafts
spin steadily, the shavings fly from the
revolving planers, the paint brushes slip
along nimbly in the hands Of girls. II 10
work, work, work, with a jolly persist
eucc. The six O'Clock bell rings aud no
one seems to discover il until the relucl-
ant engineer turns off the water, aud the
clatleHug machinery runs slowly and Il.
naiy stops, as If ii also held shares 10
the company.
We may join them at their liberal table !;
forty or more young men and women, in
good health and the best OF spirits. They
are-well-dressed, intelligent, with man
ners respectful aud courteous. After sup.
per some amuse themselves with books,
music aud games, and some return 10 the
saop for extra work. All are apparently
cYutented and happy, and all without ex-
ception are making money at rate sel-
dom equslled by people In their condi-
tiOu.
