The American irlhH.ct saws: Some
time ago a dispute Arosa between the
German government AMI esrJa.u manu-
facturers on the river Aach, which IN
solved lie determining uf tEa source OF
the river, which has It's immediate sour~-
in = spring, one Il tue hr-gs. IN Eu-
rope. rs It discharges 1850 gallons a
second The bed OF the Danube Is cal
careuus, sni It's inclination as the same
as that OF tAe ground from the Danube
tN tkl source OF the Aach, which Is NJ a
level eight hundred feet below. For q
number Of years il had been noticed that
az a certain place the Danube lost por-
ton OF its waters through holes and
crevices in its bed; this loss was SO great
that IN times Of drought II caused great
Inconvenience to manufacturers on the
Danube, who attempted 20 prevent il
by filling up these holes. This caused
a great outcry from the manufacturers
on the Aach, who maintained that the
Aach was fed by the Danube. and that
filling up the holes was an interference
with their Just and natural privileges.
Hence Investigations an experiments.
First, twenty tons OF salt were put into
a hole in the bed Of the Danube. and
the water at the source OF the Aach was
analyzed for several days, and did give
evidence OF containing salt. To obtain
more C, rtain proof, adv antage was taken
nf the wonderful coloring power OF
fuorescine. W ich is the first of q series
OF superb coloring substances, which
vary as there is introduced into It's com
position bromine, iodine, or chlorine
It's power may be judged from the fact
that one part of fuorescine TO twenty
million parts of wafer can be detected
In this experiment fifteen gallons Of n
solution OF fuorescine were thrown into
the Danube at the suspected point, on
October 9, at five o'clock. On October
u, sixty hours after the solution had
been thrown into the Danube, the
watchers at the source of the Aach
noticed the first discoloration of the
water; this discoloration increas ii until
The evening, and il did not wholly dis
appear for more than TWEEN. .y-fOur hours.
Ii is SAID that wneu the disColoratiOn
WAS most markell, the water gushing
from the spring presented a truly mag
nsficent Appearance, varying IN color
from the most intense green through
light green To a brilliant yellow. This
test established the fact that the mill
owners on the Aach were in the right.

A Bridegroom Among Sharpers.

A young German from Cincinnati,
freshly married and exceedingly happy,
set out with his pretty bride for honey
moon in Rochester, N. Y. A few hours
before the train reached Cleveland,
Ohio, a well-dressed man asked him if
he would not take cigar and play few
hands of euchre in the smoking car.
The bridegroom assented, promising to
return to his little dear very soon. Al
ter few hands, IN which he invariably
held good cards, one OF the travellers
suggested that they should put np a
penny or two to make the game lively.
Wonderful luck the bridegroom haG at
the outset, and then it turned, and he
began to lose-frst, $3.50 in mis- wallet,
next his watch and chain, and finally
his wife's watch. His partner asked
him to call at hotel in Cleveland, and
inquire for Joseph Geise,heimer, and
the players separated as The cars trund-
led into the depot. The bridegroom
called repeatedly at the hotel during the
evening and asked for Geisenheirner,
the aforesaid, but could not fiud the
gentleman. The bridal pair were penni-
less before the honeymoon was day
old, but luckily they had bought tick
cts to Rochester, and could go on TO
their journeys end and borrow money
of their relatives. -

Cn.fnI.ine for Yourself.

A vouno man stood listlcssly watching
some anglers on \ bridge He was poor
and detected. At last approaching q
basketfilled with wholesome -lOOling fish,
he sighed:
"If now / had these / would be happy.
I could sell them for good price, and
buy me food and lodgings"
81 will give you iustas many, and just
as good fish" said the owner, who bad
CHANGED to overhear his words, Z" if you
will do me trihing favor"
"And what is that 2" asked the other.
"Ouly TO tend this line till come
back, / wish to go on a short errand.
The proposal was gladly accepted. The
old man was gone so long that the young
man began to be impatient. Meanwhile
the hungry fish snapped greedily at the
baited hook, and the young man lost MI
his depression in pulling them in; and
when the owner of the line returned, he
had caught large number. Counting
out from them as many as were in the
the basket, and presenting them to The
Young man, the old fisherman said:
81 fulfill my promise from the fish you
have caught, to teach you whenever you
see others earning what you need, to
waist no time in frritless wishing, but
cast a line for yourself.
