very descriptive and appropriate mean
ing Of "the science of force or change"
A work published by DR.. Frederick
Bateman in opposition to the doctrines
of Darwin was recently brought to the
attention of the French Academy Of
Sciences by M. Larray, who asserted that
DIR. Bateman had transferred the subject
of evolution to the domain of psychol-
ogy. The substance of M. Larray's re-
marks is thus reported in the journal Of
Science: "While admitting that man, in
his purely physical nature is closely al
lied to certain animals, Dr. Bateman re-
pudiates entirely the conclusion drawn
from that anology by Mr. Darwin; for,
supposing the resemblance of man to an
imal, bone for bone, nerve for
nerve, muscle for muscle, to be
proved, what are we to con-
clude from it if it is also demonstrated
that man possesses distinctive attri-
butte, the least trace of which is not
found in q brute, an attribute which es-
tablishes gulf between the twof The
author affirms that such distinctive at
tribute exists in articulate speech. He
examines first the doctrine of Darwinism,
beginning with an exposition of the prin-
ciples Of evolution as laid down by
Haeckel. He then asserts that no proof
exists of the transmutation Of species
within historic times, and cites the cases
of bodies embalmed for three thousand
years, and of the birds and animals
carved on the ancient monuments of
Egypt. He thus confirms what Flourens
had already said, namely: The species
do not alter or pass from one to the 9TH
er; the species are fixed.'"
The great artesian well at Buda-P Pesth,
begun in the year 1868, is now finished.
During the progress Of the work many
interesting facts relating to geology and
underground temperature were collected.
Some of these are given in the Enquirer.
The total depth is 5000 feet, and the tenn
perature Of the water is 1867 Fahrenheit.
The temperature of the mud brought up
by the borer was taken every day, and
was found to increase rapidly, in spite of
the loss of heat during the ascent, down
to a depth of 2,700 feet. Beyond this
point the increase was not so marked. At
depth Of 5000 feet the temperature was
1770, giving an increase Of 10 for every
% feet bored. Water first began
to well up at q depth of 800
feet, its temperature then being 1100.
From this point onward the quantity
and temperature Of the water rapidly in
creased. Thus at {, 9,092 feet it's tempera-
ture had risen to 1902, and the yield, in
"a hours, from $500 to 44,500 gallons.
Finally, when the boring had reached
5000 feet, at which point it was stopped,
the temperature of the water as it burst
from the orifce of the tube was 1852,
and the quantity $4,000 gallons in the
"a hours. The yield was afterwards re.
duced to 167, 200 gallons, in consequence
of the bore being lined with wooden
tubes, which reduced its diameter. The
water disengages carbonic acid in abun
dance, and it also contains nitrogen and
a little sulphuretted hydrogen, besides
some fixed matter, chiefly sulphates and
carbonates Of potash, soda, lime and
magnesia.

ton showing snake after having been
more than half-swallowed by larger

in the latter. The editors say that the
snakes we're found as represented in a
hay field near Collinsby, Canada, by Mr..
John Filmer. "It is Mr.. Filmer's opin-
ion," they continue, "that while thrust

struck the body Of the larger snake,
making the opening through which the
smaller one was partly liberated. Both
snakes were alive. The larger one is
familiarly known as the garter snake,
the smaller one "a the common brown

vile Co,trinr-JOM1,dl,i is an overhanging rock
Of immense size, iutting out about one hum
dred feet over the seetbing whirlpool, and
about the same height above. This was once
the scene of a remarkable adventure. The
Indians were in hot pursuit of Van Bibber,
settler and man of distinction in those early
times. He was hard pressed, and all access
to the river below and above being cut off,
he was driven to this jutting rock, which
proved to be the jumping off place for him.
He stood on the rock, in full view of the
enemy above and below. who yelled like de
mons at the certainty of his speedy capture.
lie stood up boldly, and with his rifle kept
them at bay. As he stood there, he looked
across the river--saw his frends-his wife
with her babe in her arms, all helpless to
render assistance. They stood as if petritied
with terror and amazement. She cried at
the top of her voice: g Leap into the river
and meet me-" Laying her babe on the
grass, she seized the oars and sprang into the
skill alone. As she neared the middle of the
river, her husband saw the Indians coming
in full force and yelling like demons
"Wite, wife"' lie screamed, "Fm coming !;
drop down a little lower" With this he
sprang from his crae and descended like an
arrow into the water, feet foremost. The
| wife rested on her oars moment TO see him
rise to the surface, the little canoe floating
like a cork, bobbing about on the boiling
flood. 1t was an awful moment; it seemed
an age to her; would he ever rise? Her
earnest gaze seemed to penetrate the depths
of the water, and she darted her boat further
down the stream. He rose near her; in a
| moment the canoe was alongside of him, and
she helped him to scramble into it amid a
shower of arrows and shot that the bahled
Indians poured into them. The daring wife
did not speak word; her husband was more
dead than alive, and all depended on hel
strength being maintained till they could
reach she bank. This they did Just where
she had started, right where the babe was
still lying, growing and laughing. The men
pulled the skitf high up Oh the sand, and the
wife slowly arose and helped to lift Var
Bibber to his feet. He could not walk, but
she laid him down by his babe, and then
seating herself, she wepl wildly, just as any
other woman would have done under the
circumstances. That babe is now grand
father, and that rock is called Van Bibber:

YOSO No Go.

Fred Schmilsle returned yesterday from
his trip o the Iogo mines in the Judith
Basin and states that they are no good, bed
rock being from twenty to thirty feet deep,
and the gulch over sixty miles long. The
colors are very small, the largest not being
the size of a pin head. One claim is down
TO bedrock, but no pay has been found, and
the OwIr"S are now cross-cutting from rim
lock to lim-rOck across the gUlch Shouli
no pay be found it is thought all of the
miners in the entire such will leave for
better diggings. Some good quartz, however,
has been found and many of the proSpcctors
are working on that while awaiting the result
of the lest i'll the gulch digginss. A small
town has been laid out, but little building is
going on, as the feeling of uncertainty is
strong and men do not care TO invest their
money and erect buildings to put their goods
into until the richess Of the mines is an as
suIed fact. Provisions are sold at fair prices
considering the isolation Of the mines, bacon
being worth 30 cents per bound; flour, 10
cents sugar, 80 cents, ana other things in
proportion. There is little gambling going
on As the miners have not the dust to do it
with. On the whole we would not be sur
