SCIENTIFIC.

Petroleum IN Phdrmdcy.-By an ingen-
ious process, NJ. Mason, French
chemist, has succeeded in removing
the disagreeable odor of petroleum,
thus rendering it valuable as a substi-
tute for alcohol in pharmacy. Into a
vessel containing 225 pounds of petrol
cum are separately introduced, by the
means of a long funnel, two ounces each
Of sulphuric and nitric acid, and IL
pound of stronger alcohol are carefully
poured upon the surface of the petrole-
um. The alcohol gradually sinks to the
bottom, and when coming into contact
with the acids, heat is developed and
some effervescence takes place, but not
in proportion TO the quantity of the
liquids. Ethereal products OF a very
agreeable odor are formed, and the sub
stances thus treated acquire an analo-
gous odor, at the same time becoming
yellowish in color. The operation lasts
about an hour, after which the liquids
are thoroughly agitated for some min
minutes with water, and, after resting
for eight or ten hours, the purified pc
trOieum is drawn of. The lower STRAIT
um, which is a mixture of the acids,
water and alcohol, may be used in de-
Odorizing the heavy oils of petroleum
by agitating them well for twenty min
utes, and, after twelve hours washing
the oil with milk of lime. to remove the
acids. Petroleum thus purified may be
used in pharmacy for many purposes.
All the tinctures for external use may
be prepared with it, like the tincture OF
arnIca, alkanet and camphor, and may
also be used for dissolving ether and
chloroform, like alcohol; and, combin-
ed with fats OF glycerine, it promises TO
be of great utility in the treatment of
skin diseases, etc.

A Prairie Chase.

Away went the buffalo, and away
went the men, as hard as they could
dash; now the hunters gained upon
him, and pressed him hard; again the
enormous creature had the advantage.
plunging with all his might, his terrif-
ic horns often plowing up the earth as
he spurned it under him. Sometimes
he would double, and rush so near the
horses, as almost to gore them with his
horns, and in an instant would be of in
tangent, and throw his pursuers from
the track. At length the poor animal
came to bay, and made some unequivo-
cal demonstrations of combat; raising
and tossing his head furiously, and
tearing up the ground with his feet.
At this moment shot was fired. The
victim trembled like an aspen leaf, and
fell to his knees, but recovering him
sci in an instant, started again as fast
as before. Again the determined hun
ters dashed after him, but the poor bull
was nearly exhausted-he proceeded
but short distance, and stopped again.
The hunters approached, rode slowly
by him, and shot two balls through his
body with the utmost GOODNESS and pre-,
cision. During the race-the whole of
which occurred in full view of the par
ty-the men seemed wild with the ex-
element it occasiOned; ald when the
animal fell, a shout rent l. e air which
started the antelopes by dozens from
the bluffs, and sent the wolves howl
ing fr ON their lairs.

He ApolOgised.

Not long ago, an old gentlemen ac-
companied by his two daughters, ar
rived in Joplin from Arkansas with a
load of dried peaches and sweet pota-
toes. He drove up TO certain grocery
store on Main Street, and asked the pro-
prietor what he was giving for the pro-
duce above mentioned. The grocer
told him, but the old man didn't think
it enough and insisted that the grocer
should take his load and pay him more
than the price that had been mentioned.
Quite an argument ensued, but the mer-
chant failed to satisfy the Arkansan
that he had offered all that the articles
were worth. After becoming con-
vinced that there was no likelyhood of
striking a trade, and seeing that the
old man seemed to think he had G
weeks talking engagement, the man Of
groceries turned around rather uncere-
moniously and left Arkansas talking to
space. The young ladies were rare
specimens of the Rackensack female,
with wonderfully developed biceps,
and when they saw that the old man
had been snubbed, their anger knew
no bounds. They got right down out
of that wagon, walked right into that
store, took that merchant by each ear,
walked him round that room two or
three times, jammeG him up in the cor
ner against coal oil tank and sticking
their faces SO close to his that he
get breath, informed him that

How AN Election Was Held.

Some years ago, Russ was Repub-
lican in a Democratic county. What
his politics are now, we don't know and
don't care, and we think he don't know
or care either. We only know he is a
manly, big hearted, genial gentleman.
and that's all we care about these times.
But TO the story. Russ was a Repub-
lican candidate in Democratic county,
and, as matter of course, wanted all
the votes he could get. Then as now
he was passIonately fond of cunning
and always owned fine gun and dogs.
In his county was an old German we
will call Jake. He also was a hunter
and a power among ''the boys" He
kept little codntry doggery and his
''influence" was worth about thirty
votes. In due time Russ met Jake and
a talk about hunting, guns and dogs
rather warmed the Dutchman towards
Russ although Jake was a Democrat.
After while Russ saw one of Jake's
lank pot beliied pointers and commenced
to give away taffy.
"Jake," said Russ, "that's a mighty
fine dog. Where did you get him?"
Jake replied to the effect that he
raised that kind of dogs.
"well, III tell you," said Russ, 81
am very fond OF hunting and if l am
elected Sheriff this fall shall indulge
myself In shooting to my hearts con-
tent. If | am not elected will not be
able to shoot much. will give you fif-
ty dollars for that dog, Jake, il l want
him after election. Here is five dol
lar note TO bind the bargain" Jake
tickled to death at the fine sale of his
doc, which was worth about fifty cents,
ook the bill, and as consequence his
end of the county gave Russ hand
some majority and he was elected, bare
ly pulling through. Time passed and
Russ was duly installed in the office Of
Sheriff of Ripley county. Soon Jake
put in au appearance, dragging the un-
willing cur at his heels.
"Mister Russ" said Jake, "you vos
now elected Sheriff Won dis county und
here is dose dog. Gif me my vorty-
five dollars"
"Jake," said Russ, 81 find that my
time will not allow me to hunt as much
as l thought it would, you may keep
the dog and the five dollars too."
"Jake studied long time, then took
a long breath and said:
"Mister Russ, / pellet you buy me
and not my dog! Amt i'd?

Wolves in Roumania-

with the great steppes of Russia on one
side of them and the Businesses of the

Guilty in accepting the tales, both of
robbers and wolves, which were cur
rent at Roman and Jassy One of the
latter had the advantage of dramatic
completeness. 4 Jassy farmer last
winter was driving in the direction of
Roman when his sledge was attacked
by wolves. Being armed, he shot one
of the brutes, and the others forthwith
disappeared. Some sudden impulse led
him 10 propose to his servant that they
should secure the carcase of the dead
wolf, and accordingly, having left his
sledge, he began to drag the dead body
toward it. Unhappily, the horses
scented the vermin, and wild with ter
ror, bolted at full speed back to Jassy,
leaving the farmer alone with his prize.
He had not been left many seconds be-
fore the pack returned and tore him TO
pieces. I've got his boots" said my

a Rei0 and simple method of testing
grease and oil for acids is recommended
by DR.. Weiderhold, to those who use
either grease or oil as lubricatO-s for
machinery. Either cuprous oxide or
coppersmith' scale is put into a small
testometre, which is filled with the oil
to be examined. If the latter contains
no fatty or resinous acids, there is no
change in its color, but if there is any,
the oil is cOlored, becoming light green
in its lower portion within very short
time, If the amount is small-the inten-
sity of the color varying with the
amount of the acid. Oil containing re-
sinous acids is turned blue. These re-
actions appear within ten or twenty
minutes, at an ordinary temperature,
but are accelerated by the application
of heat. This method is said To possess
the advantage of being very readily and
easily employed.

Professor Lockyer is of the opinion
that human life on the planet Mars
might be very much like human life on
the earth-the light cannot be SO bright
but the organs of sight may be so much
more susceptible as TO make the vision
quite as good; the heat is probably less,
as the polar SHOWS certainly extend
farther, but by no means less in proper
ton to the lessened power of the solar
rays. He agrees with ethers, that sew
eral very remarkable seas-are now de-
Unable in the southern hemisphere, in
which, as is the case also with the earth,
water seems to be much more widely
spread than in the northern hemi-
sphere. There is, for example, south
ern sea, exceedingly like the Baltic in
shape; and there is another and still
more remarkable sea, now defined by
observations of many astrOnOmers-one
near the equator, long struggling arm
twisting almost Into the shape of an )
laid ON its back from east to west, which
is at least thousand miles in length
and hundred in breadth.

Aboupthe wall of the open attic,
waiting its division into rooms, hung
half dozen bird cages, holding cardin-
al and mocking birds. The sun stream
in from the windows, and some geran-
iums and heliotropes grew luxurantly.
Jerry opened one of the cages, and a
slender, delicate mocking-bird darted
out, and flew for moment to the end of

A Buffalo Fight.

The Cape buffalo is found all over
Central Africa, and is a formidable
animal when wounded, as quite regard
less of the cloud of smoke which follows
the shot aimed al it, it charges right
through it, and so does frequent injury
to the experienced hunter. Its general
color is blue-black, but In some cases it
has reddish tinge. The Hon. w. III.
Drummond gives the following account
of fight between two bulls, of which
he was an eyewitness. After having
had his attention attracted by loud,
clattering noise, he remarks that con
looking through the edge of the thicket
which had concealed them | saw two
buffalo bulls, stsnding facing each 9TH
er with lowered heads, and as sat
down to watch, they rushed together
with all their force, producing the loud
crash L had before heard. Once the
horns were interlocked they kept them
so, their straining quaters telling that
each was doing his best to force the
other backward. Several long white
marks on their necks showed where
they had received scratches, and blood
dripping over the withers. of the one
next me proved that he had received a
more serious wound. 1t was a mag
nificent sight to see the enormous ami
mals, every muscle at its fullest tension
striving for the mastery. Soon one, a
very large and old bull, began to yield
little, going backward step by step;
but at last, as if determined to conquer
or die, it dropped on its knees. The
other disengaging his horns for second
SO as to give an impetus, again rushed
at him, but whether purposely or not
1 could not tell, it did not strike him
on the forehead, but on the neck, un-
der the hump, and could see that with
a twist of his horns ne inflicted a sew
ere wound. However, instead of fol-
lowing up his seeming advantage he at
once recoiled, and stood half facing his
antagonist, who, getting on his legs
again. remained in the same position for
several minutes. and then with a low
grunt of rage rushed at him. This time
he was not met, and his broad forehead
struck full on his rivals shoulder, al
most knocking him over. The old bull
then went few yards off and stood
the other for fully quarter

BEDDING of cabbages Tor winter use
or marketing is done before the groun1
freezes. Choose a dry day when the
leaves are not frozen, set the cabbage
in the furrow of small plow close to-
gether in well-drained spot, bank up
the earth around the bed TO keep out
surface water, and cover with leaves or
eel grass to keep out the frost, but be
careful not to put on so much litter as to
spoil the cabbage in mild wealth. Cab
bagcs thus covered will keep well till
spring. A few cabbage for family use
may be kept In cool cellar, but they
will keep longer and better in bed out
side. The small ones are well worth
saving for the hens; they enjoy green
food in winter quite as well as their
owners.
