Explosion Of Water.

That water is far more powerful explo-
der than gunpowder, under certain meth.
DDS of operation, has been proved by Prof.
piazzi Smyth, judging from paper COM
municated by him to the Philosophical 80
ciety, Manchester England, a subject of in
vestigatien undertaken by him, It appears,
on comparing the far larger space occupied
BY exploded water in the shape of steam
than by exploded gunpowder in the shape
of its permanent gases. The difficulty,
however, according to Professor smyth, is
TO pet the water to explode, and not to pass
OIL merely into steam. In bis efforts to
accomplish this he at first melted large
adleful of lead, put upon the 1uid and al
most red-hot surface drop of water, and
lled various devices to bring it under the
influence of heat; but, even when forcibly
attempted to be pushed under the melted
lead, the water ran with vehemenee up the
substance of the wooden probe employed,
and refused to have anything to do with
the fluid lead, which consequently remained
andisturbed. But on his taking a smaller
iron ladle, putting drop Of water on the
bottom of 1t, and giving Herewith slight
ito the surface of the meiteb lead, in
SANITY the whole contents of the great ladle
were scattered violently, and only few
grains were recovered; showing quite suffi-
GENTLY the explosive capacity of water.

Another Pre-hist$ric skull.
GSilver S tate, Nevada,

silver state, Nevada,
An interesting discovery has been made
near Oreana, Nevada, by gentleman who
is visiting some friends here. While stroll
ing about in the foothills north OF the town
he found in small gully, where it had
been laid bare by the action of the water, a
petrifed human skull of very peculiar
shape, the interior of which was filled with
crystals of beautiful green color. The pc
cuar shape of this skull shows beyond a
doubt that it's owuer belonged to prehis-
toric age, or at least to race long extinct.
The space between the eyes is at least three
times as great as in the average human
head, and the extreme fatness of the upper
part (where the organs Of vensration are
supposed to exist) causes it to more closely
the Uranium of gigantic ape than that OF a
modern man. A part of the front part has
been broken out by contact with some hard
substance, but enough remains to stamp it
undeniably as human skull. It is now on
exhibition at the depot. The discoverer,
Mr.. Waite, seems to think of sending it to
the Smithsonian Institute, but will leave 1t
where it is for the present in order to give
everybody chance to inspect 1t.

Smelling Bees: About.

"Spelling bees" have been much more de-
yeloped in England than here. On a recent
occasion at Durham an Irishman questioned
the judgments rendered on the word CHI
bernian" A fight followed in which one
man had his skull fractured, and is now not
expected to live. They have ialso reached
the stage. Mr.. Toole, as Professor Mud.
de-" has organized one of these entertain
ments in the schoolroom of his wife's estab-
]lshment for young ladies. The humor sug-
gested by the theme is happily hit Of, and
after an absurd contest and a free fight
among the male competitors it is discovered
that one of the girls has eloped, after which
the professor bestows his daughters hand
on Young gentleman named Webster. Mr..
Toole, propoundtng fearful problems in or
biography, replying to puzzling inquiries
from private box, and singing and dancing
with spirit, affords an amount of fun which,
1t is said, never flags.

Sec0r RObesOn's Riches.

From the Baltimore sum-
1t is reported in Wall street that when
Secretary Robson went into Office, he bor-
fowed 81 900 to make presentable appear
aance, and that to-day he is worth not less
than 100000.
1t is the firm belief of those who know
what they are talking about, that millions
upon millions have been squaudered upon
llsaVorites of the Navy, Department ever siuce
the commencement of the war, and that the
sqaandering or plundering is still in pleas
ant operation.
Let me cite briefly one case A contractor
VINO has had hold Of the navy teat for years,
ana who, two years ago, lived In $1,000
residence, now lives in one that cost, with
surroundings, $25O,000 j..
The palace was built for himself by days
work, and was nearly three years in course
ol erection. The furniture in 1t came part
" from Paris, and cost $4,000.
The stable. built near the residence, is
valued at $4,000
- But this is not all. Said contractor in ad-
ultlon to the above, has become the owner,
since his connection with the Navy Depart
ment, of hundreds of acres Of land and val
uaole % buildings and stores, which he has
either erected or purchased. Indeed he is
ranked as the wealthiest man in the county
III which he resides, and that is not an
hours distance from the city. These are
.ae VI. facts, and they carry their own COM
