Scientific Miscellany.

Adaptation IS an evolution theory |
which has received strong confirma- |
ton. One of its principles is that |
organs or functions of living creatures |
gradually disappear if unused.< A ia
miliar illustration is furnished by the |
blind fish of caves, whose eyes through |
long disuse have been reduced to Il ru-
dimentaro and sightless state. 1t APP
pears, however, that the evolution
view does not always hold good. if it
be true, as lately stated, that in some
European instances mice have been
raised in absolute darkness for many
generations without appearing to have
lost in the slightest degree the sensi-
tiveness of the eye to light.
A substitute for cod-liver oil which
has met with considerable favor is ex-
tracted from the dugOng, an herbivor-
Gus cetacean inhabiting the warm seas
near Australia and the Eastern Arch
ipelago. The dugong oil is free from
the unpleasant OdOr and taste so OBJ
icctionable in cOb-liver oil, and is less
liable to change in keeping.
A volcanic eruption from the Kara
below mountain in the Caucasus is re-
ported. This mountain has not before
shown volcanic phenomena during
historic times.
A curious observation concerning
some of the Australian acacias (Acdcia
dealbat0) acclimatized in India is re-
corded by DR.. Branpis, director of the
India Forest Department. These trees
were probably introduced OH the Me
girls several years before 1915. They
were known to flower in 1915 in OctO-
hpr fhn month IF fhair A St,,o1 io,,
Towering time; but in 1850 they flow
cred in September; in 1870, in August;
in 1870, in July; and in 1889 they be-
gan to flower in June-the spring
month in India, corresponding to Oc-
tOber in Australia. 1t is remarkable
that it should have taken the trees
nearly forty years after removal to re-
gain their habit of Towering in spring.
1t has been found that sunlight has
a considerable action upon glass. Col
yellow, and light yellow, green and
low shades Of those cOlOrs, while cOf-
fee colored glass has been known to
materially change to rose and amber
in a short space of five years. 1t is
suggested that the rich tints so much
admired in the stained windows of old
cathedrals may be due to the action of
the sunlight during many years in
toning down the originally quite bright
or harsh cOlors.

The matter of pensions is receiving
solid slice of Congressional attention
this winter, and as it is of Importance
to the soldiers OF the late war, their
widows and orphans throughout the
county, we give it full space.
The reply of w. w. Dudley, Com
missioner of Pensions, to Senator
Platt's resolution Of inquiry was laid
before the Senate yesterday. The
questions asked are answered in their
order substantially as follows:
The number OF pensioners on the
roll December 1, 1882, is estimated at
291, 657, with an annual value of $780,
O13,OOO.
There are now los pensioners on
the roll who lost one hand 1854 who
lost one foot; these now get $500 per
month; also 1922 who lost one leg and
1866 who lost one hand and ono foot;
these now get 24.OO per month. The
bill provides that all of these shall re-
ceive $4,000 per month.
Gen. Grant has written, urging the
increase for MANNED soldiers. He
says: II concur in recommending the
passage of the bill. No pension can
compensate the men who have lost
one or more limbs, and should have
been glad to see that class of pensions
well provided for, instead of the indis-
criminate pensions, many OF whom
are physically as good as they would
have been if the war had never been
fought

One day in the years agone, a

commonly known as Uncle Ike. The
old man was soon found in grocery,
and after the usual how -do-do " the
stranger SAID:

You dew" was the reply.
"Well, my name IS Thornburn, Of

"Wall, I dew make a trade now
and then What ye got"
'I've got horse l brought along
on purpose to trade with you. Let

Eyes; expect | be.
"Then of course shall expec. you
to be honest with me. I've been
looking at your oId nag over there by
the post. How old is hep"
"That ere hoss," slowly replied
Uncle Ike, as he puckered his lips
and squinted hi; lett eye" let's see!
Wall, now, quite forgil whether he's
nine or ten years old, but we'll say
ten"
"Uncle Ike, isn't that horse all OF
twenty years old +? Come, now, as &

"Look a-here, mister" said the
