SUBSTITUTE FOR LUNIBER.-We are
in receipt, from Mr.. ). W. Hamilton, of
Lawrence Kansas, of a sample Of lum-
Der made from straw. manufactured
after a process patented by himself. the
particulars of which he did not explain.
He informs us. however, that he can
manufacture lumber like the sample
sent, Of any desired length. from u feet
upwards, and - inches in width, at a
cost competing with the better or finish
ed grades of pine. although he does not
inform US whether this competition will
apply equally to sections where lumber
is comparatively cheap, as at Chicago.
and at Western grain producing points.
as in Kansas. We imagine. however.
that the expense viii vary but little at
any point where straw is ObtainabIe in
large quantities. The manufacture is.
Of course, confined to a grade which will
compete with the better class of lumber.
as there would be no object i'll filling the
new product with knots, and shakes
would be scarcely obtainable even if de-
sired, while sap and decayed wood must
be impossibilities. The sample sent to
us Will hold a nail as well as wood. is
equally susceptible to a high painting
finish, and can be polished to as high a
degree as is desirable. Being made
waterproof, we can discover no possible
reason why it should not be as durable.
or even more so, than pine or even oak,
while its adaptability is evidently as
great for roofing purposes as for the fine
work of a dwelling ". Lumber

HAIL.-FrOm long study of phenOm-
ena of thunder-stOrmS in the GirOude
(France) NJ. LespiauIt comes to the con-
clusion that. ceterjS pdribltS, valleys are
more struck by hal. than hills or table
land. 1t seems that a certain depth be-
low the clouds is necessary for the form
alton or The fall of hail 20 occur with
out obstacle. Further, the directions
OF the valleys traversed have a marked
influence on the direction of the clouds.
though they only cause a mOmentarv de-
Election. and the clouds, after following
them a certain time, are carried on in
the general direction of the vertical
movement. For example, if a valley be
in the axis of the zone Of hail. or a little
inclined to that axis, the hail clouds
seem TO be carried along that valley as
dead leaves are carried along by the
wind IN trench. If the valley be sub
divided by mountain spur into two
others the hail cloud also divides and
the two secondary valleys are ravaged
In their turn, at least to the extent in
which they are within the zone hail.
Valleys lying across this zone have also
an influence, though less marked.
When the clouds come to pass over them
they show tendency to descend andto
spread out on the two sides of the zone.
so that the zone is broader over valleys
than over plateaus, and the ravapes are
often greater Times.

THE CARE OF THE HAIR.

Some forty years ago there was intro
duced a preparation called balm Of
Columbia. ?; which, when used according
to the directions, produced remarkable
results in preventing the hair from fall
ing off, and even causing new crop to
grow. Certificates might have been OBJ
tanned from several excellent and emf
nent persons who, within the writer's
knowledge. used this Balm with good
results, had not the maker lived in Eng
land. The directions were essentially
these. Before going to bed, rub the
scalp with 4 stiff brush for 1--WE think il

whole efficacy of the Balm was'due 10
the ten minutes scrubbing of the scalp
before it was applied. If the stuff had
been water, though it was some sooth-

rubbing, have done some good. It viii

BLOOD POISONING. Christ
mas time gentleman in thiscity receiy-
ed pair of green wooden wristlets as a
present. They covered his arms well
and he thought them quite an accept
able gift. About a week after wearing
them he noticed that a peculiar rash had
broken out on both arms. This tr0ub-
led him greatly when near the fire or in
a warm room. He tried sleeping in a
cold part of the house, but this afford
ed little relief. The eruption became
very itchy an1 troublesome in a few
days, so he consulted a doctor, who pro-
nounced it a case of rash and gave him
a remedy. This was applied. but it did
no good. In scratching the rash. the
skin came of ana left a pink mark
The Inflammation soon spread all over
the upper part of the body. Other ply
sicians were consulted who prescribed
medicines and ointment. but they gave
no beneficial result. Finally the trouble
grew so serious as to prevent him from
sleeping. The rash finally broke out in
his eyes, and his Forehead was complete
lv covered with scales. Friends and ac-
quaintanceS offered all sorts os theories
as 10 the nature of the disease aue rem
edies by the score. but none helped him
at all on trial. Finally becoming scared
the gentleman went to a celebrated doc
tor IN New \ OTk who did not afford
him any relief. Another doctor i'm
Brooklyn pronounced IT blood poisoning
through the cuffs. These had been
worn all the while without the owner
even having a suspicion that they were
the cause of all his troubles. The doc
tor told him that had he worn them an
other week death would have probably
resulted. The dye stuff in the wristlets
was annalyZed and found to contain
pTussic and bichrOmate acids, with 9th
ers equally dangerous. The chemist
said there was enough IN the wristlets.

was tried before Lord Coleridge in the Court of Common Pleas, that judge held that the amount received from the United States gov. ernment was of the nature of salvage. He also maintained that the policy of insurance was, as between the two parties, conclusive as to the value of the cargo The under writers appealed, and Lord Coleridge's judg. ment has been reversed, by two judges against one.. Lord Justice Bramwen held that the money paid to the owners was mere ly compensation for under-insurance. In this view Lord Justice Brett concurred, say ing that the sum paid to the owners was a free gift from the United States, and could not have been recovered by them in any court. Moreover, he expressed the opinion that the United States government was under no treaty obligation to pay the Alabama award to particular persons or classes of per sons. Lord Justice Baggallay took the op- posite view, and concurred with Lord Cole ridge. He thought that as the underwriters had paid as for total loss, they were enti- tied to recover. He was in minority, and judgment was reversed.

A grand church can be built up town, and other use be made of the money which will justify concession to the march Of progress. The only monument in the entire precinct that has any special claim IS that Of Hamilton, and whose memory can be equally honored by a statue. These ar guments are increasing in their importance wltn the advance in real estate, and hence must eventually become conclusive Trinity at present has many visitors and when the season opens the grounds are very attractive. The sombre tone of the old burial ground is relieved by an abundance of flowers, and a number of gardeners are in service. Trinity burial ground covers almost an entire square, and the present church is the third built on the same plot The first was burned during the Revolutionary war the second was de- mohshed, being unsafe as well as inconven- lent, and the present magnificent structure was built nearly forty years ago. Churches rarely burn in this city, though this often oc- CUTS in other places, and old Trinity was only swept away by vast confagration The building had stood nearly century, but no correct picture exists A fine painting, how ever, of the second Trinity may be seen at the church offices; and I recognize it as one of the prominent features in the Broadway of my boyhood
