The age Of Rocks.

At the first meeting session or the
Liverpool Geological Society, the re-
firing president delivered the annual
address. The subject was an interest
ing one. being calculation of the
amount OF solid matter removed an
nually from the surface of England and
Wales In solution in rain or river
water. The result of the calculations,
which were of an elaborate nature,
showed that it would take thirteen
thousand years to move in this man
ner one foot in depths of solid matter
over the entire surface of England and
Wales. This calculation was compar-
ed with others. AS throwing light
upon the age of sedimentary deposits,
calculations taken, together with the
amount of matter annually brought
down in river water in the form of
mud, are extremely interesting, and
the president deduced from that the
minimum amount of time which
must have elapsed since the sedimen-
tary rocks we know of were laid down
is, in round numbers. five hundred
million years, thus supporting the
views of Lyell, Hutton and other geo.
Iopisits as to the immense age Of the
world.

A Practical Witness in Court.

Iu Cox's court there was charge OF
assault against that old offender and
police favorite, "JOhn Doe" and Mr..
Dickson, the attorney, was examin-
ing a witness:
Dickson-How hard did he shake
the man when he grabbed him?
Wltness-I don't know. Pretty
hard.
Diekson-what do you call pretty
hard?'
Witness-Well, it was pretty hard; ;
that's all / can say.
Dickson-Come, now, you surely
have sense enough TO let the court
know what you call pretty hard
Witness-I guess l can show the
court. It was like this:
Here the witness rose from his seat,
and springing upon the as'onished at
torney, grabbed him by the collar,
and with a strong, impulsive jerk
landed him on the floor. Then he
gathered him up ard Topped him
across a chair then he began to bang
him over the floor. jam him mp against
the wall, and batter him around over
| the benches.
Hold on-I understand shouted
the lawyer.
This is how he fetched him. re-
torted the witness, giving him anoth'
er lift.
Won't the court rule out this ans
wer? I object said Mr.. Dickson
catching bis breath.
If you withdraw the question, al
right said the Judge; and springins
down from his seat, be collared the
witness and took him off. When ht
again mounted the bench, he remark
ed: THE witness appears to have IN
troduced his testimony, but 1 can rule
that the Jury ignore his answer
By this time the spectators were IL
a convulsion of laughter, and the at
torney retired to brush his clothes

Writing In the Dark.

The noctograph Is simple inven-
tion by means of which anyone may
write In the dark with ease, and Is
consequently blessing to those whose
eyes are overworked. 1t may be made
by a child. A board of smooth black
walnut, eleven inchesi In length by ten
inches in width, has upon 1t walnut
frame like o slate frame, somewhat
smaller than the board. Board and
frame are fastened together by small
hinges. From side to side of the
frame are stretched sixteen small brass
wires, and one can write between
them, the wires serving not to guide
the hand exactly. but to prevent the
running together of the lines. 1t Is
best to use ordinary soft paper and a
lead pencil. The paper is held In place
by the frame, which shuts down upon
the board as one side of double slate
shuts upon the other. True one may
acquire the habit of writing in the
dark without any such aid. but this
photograph sinplifies matters. There
are many who, from various causes,
find it impossible TO write by bright
light, and to them we recommend the
use of the noctograph.

How to Clean a Rusty PlOW.

Take e quart of water and pour
slowly into 1t half pint of sulphuric
acid. The mixture will become quite
warm from chemical action. and this
Is the reason why the acid should be
poured slowly into the water rather
than the water into the acid. Wash
tbe mold board Tor any other iron
mat is rusty) with this weak acid.
and let &c remain on the iron until IL
evanorates. Then wash 1t again. The
object is to give the acid time 70 as
solye the rust. Then WASH with wa
ter. and you will see where the Wors.
spots are. Apply some more % aClo
and rub those spots with a brick. Inc
acid and the securing viii remove
most of the rust. Then wash tue
mold.board thoroughly with water 10

It is true that the court below

plaintiff had no lien on the land. But
the Supreme Court did not affirm the

tax lien could not be foreclosed before
the time of redemption expires. The
purchaser, they say, must take MS
deed and rely thereupon; and alter
wards. if by reason of Irregularities In
the sale. he loses his title, he may
foreclose a lien which the statute
creates in such cases In favor of the
purchaser, except in certain cases
whether the court might order the
land owner to pay the purchaser hl'
money and interest, as condition o
recovering possession of his land. or IL
an action affecting the validity OF th'
tax deed, under another section of th'
statute. The court decided nothing
on the question of interest, and the!
dismissed the action without prejudic
because prematurely commenced. A
to the defendant, Upton, the courtre
marked that he, as a mortgage. coul'
have no standing in court. That II
all cases a mortgage must -protec
himself by dIscharging the lien OF di
tdges legally assessed on land mortg
aged to him. We suggest that tn
Nebraska City NeaOS would do well t
publish this correction of its mistake
With sincere regard.
