Sand Mowers.

The singular phenomena Of sand show
ers occur every year in China. During
the showers there is neither cloud nor fog
in the sky, but the sun is scarcely visible,
looking very much as when seen through
smoked glass. The air Is filed with a
fine dust, entering eyes, nostrils and
mouth, and often causing serious diseases
of the eye. This dust, or sand, AZ the
people call it, penetrates houses, reaching
apartments which seem securely closed.
II is supposed TO come from the great
desert Of Cobb, as the sand Of SAhaia is
taken up by whirlwinds and carried hun
dre1s of miles away.
The Chinese, while sensitive 10 the
personal discomfort arising from these
showers, are resigned TO them from a
conviction that they are great help to
agriculture. They say that q year OF
numerous sand showers is always year
of large fertility. The sand probably
imparis some enriching elements to the
soil, aud II also tends to loosen the com.
pact aluvial matter of the Chinese val.
leys. II is impossible that these showers
may be composed oil microscopic insects,
like similar th,wers which have been
noticed in the Atlantic ocean.

WAR NOT ~.

1t is calculated that within five or ak
weeks the Russians in Asia received about
10000 fresh troops. The Turkish troops
opposing them estimated at 10000 men is
probably correct.
The Hungarian government has or.
dered the stoppage of the money relief
heretofore granted TO able bodied Bosnian
fugitives. The greatest distress and NOR.
tality prevails among them.
The car addressing the general staff
Wednesday, declared that all the members
Of the imperial family would remain with the
army to share in the labor and fortunes of the
war and witness the deeds OF the soldiers.
He concluded: II myself will care for the
army. and. il necessary, all Russia will, as
once before, take up arms"

The Colorado Cardiff Giant.

A telegram from Denver, Col, con-
tains the following "Mr. Conant's dis
covery of the petrifed missing link or
statue of an ancient man was yesterday
exhibited for several hours. Crowds
poured in and gazed with varied emo
tions upon the giant as he lay on the
back on boards, encircled by a sound,
temporary fence, to keep hands from in
juring him. Prof. Semper, of Wurtem-
burg, Germany, says he does not believe
the figure to be Of archaeological origin,
nor petrifaction, and says it is easy in
fossiliferous remains generally 10 trace
the outline between the bone and flesh,
the substance connecting the joints being
different from the substance on the body,
and there is more difference between the
substance on the body and limbs and
that connecting the joints than is found
in the substance connecting the legs for
instance. The remains should be more
shrunkeD, and, If petrifaction, should
have hair. DIR. Dennison says one arm
from the elbow to the wrist is lower by
an inch than the other. The arm is ont
of proportion to the legs; also the mech,
hips, and head are not proportioner.
The abdomen, high in dead persons, falls
to level with the hips. The substance
is said to dissolve in nitric acid. TIE
majority think it is piece Of statury or
clay image of very ancient origin.
Semper says the head is similar to the
heads of the ancient Aztecs. 1t is GER
tainly a great curiosity, and, if not a
fraud, a most wonderful, awe inspiring
figure. II itisa petrifed human body,
the four inches OF tail will go far to sus-
tain Darwin's theory, and supply the
missing link"
