The Kola Nut.

The kola nut, largely used in tropical
Africa to make an invigorating bever-
age, was subjected some months ago to
careful analysis, and is found to be
richer in caffeine than the best coffee,
while containing also the same active
principle as cacao. Negroes are said
not to touch coffee when they can OBJ
tain this nut. 1t is said by a DR.. Dan
iell to be growing into an important ar
ticle of commerce in the Soudan, and,it
is thought, will soon find its way into
European countries. Samples have
been sent to London medical men for
experiment and to planters for agricul-
tural purposes. 1t is believed to aid
digestion and to render people capable
of wlthstanding the depression conse-
quent upon prolonged labor. Others
claim for it the power to relieve mental
depression and to not only subdue the
craving for alcohol but prevent its in
toHicating effects.

The Moon.

Professor Proctor reasons that the
moon has grown old six times as fast as
the earth, comparison of the masses
and radiating surfaces of the two bodies
making it evident that the earth's inter-
nal heat was originally sufficient to last
six times as long as the moons supply.
On the very moderate assumption, there
fore, that only twelve millions of years
have passed since the earth and the
moon were at the same stage of plane
tary life, this astronomer shows us that
sixty millions of years must elapse be-
fore the earth will have reached the
stage through which the moon is now
passing.

On Thursday. last, saws the Collar VI
defie. terrible catastrophe occurred on
the G. 4 r. railypad, about one half
mile above Teats place, ON the South
Palouss. A blast was being pat in on
the rock ws-k st that point, and after
"sprlnginan the hole with two giant
povder cartridges one keg OF black
powder was pGt in and vas being
tanped down by nan by the name
OF James Csnnel. IL seeuss that the
bl sst Was put in too soon after the hole
had been Sprung which was vet verv
bot. and after one key of powder had
been poured into the orifice, and while
Mr.. ConneIl wss in the act of tannpinc
the charge. II exploded, blowing Con
neii over sixty yards say into the mid
dis OF the river aud killing him instant
ly. The body sank into the stream al
most as soDn as it toushed the surface.
and the stream. WAS dragged for over
two hours before the body was found.
After finding the msngled remains of
Mr.. Conneil it was discovered that one
leg had been blown of entirely, with
the exception of small piece of skin
by which Is hung-bones, muscles and
flesh being crushed and iacerated in a
fearful manner. The .tampiag iron had
been blown completely through the
other leg, and one arm Was crushed and
broken. This would. of itself, have
caused almost instant death, without
taking into consideration the fact of
his having fallen into about seven feet
OF water in this mangied ana helpless
condition. Peter Lundy, who was su-
perlntending the rock work, Was stand
ing on the bank of the cat IT the time
of the explosion, and received injuries
of serious IL not fatal character. He
will probably lose the sight of both
eyes, and Vas burned and bruised Sc
versiy about the legs and back. At the
time OF the explosion he had about
eighty dollars IN a pocket of his vest
The vest Was blown completely of of
him, and ths money WAS found on the
rocks at considerable distance from
the scene of the disaster, all tied up in
handkerchief, just as he had left it in
his vest pocket. His face presents
horrible spectacle, being mangled and
swollen out of all proportion, aud his
eyes are completely closed. Pieces of
rock were extracted from the inside of
his mouth and throat. which, we are in
formed, we're blown through the flesh.
DIR. Boswell, who is attending the pa
tient, expresses the opinion that he will
save his life. although he will probably
lose bis sight. John Mcmahon and
Jesse McDonough, who were assisting
in the work of preparing the blast, we're
severely injured, bnt will be able to
walk around in few days. Another
workman, whose name we did not learn,
and who was holding the keg Of pow
der, was blown about twenty feet into
the air, and, after turning two or, three
somersaults, alighted on his feet all safe
and sound, without n scratch.

Political parties in England will be called
on during the present session of Parliament
to battle over questions of reform as presented
by two bills, by one of which is contemplated
an extension of suffrage to the agricultural
classes, by the other cleansing ofthe Augean
stables of ''the city," that mighty corporation
of London which has by eight centuries of
wealth and almost unlimited power accumu-
lated abuses, greed and waste which the King
dom now finds itself unable to bear. If the
Irish question be obhuded it is to be abruptly
dismissed and if Irish members attempt to be-
come obstructive they are to be dealt with
under the new cloture rules.

THE tax imposed in Texas for school pur-
poses has never been sufficient to meet the
demands for education, and districts should be
allowed, by two-thirds vote, to tax them
selves to greater extent. Such is the prac-
tice which obtains in other States where the
educational advantages are far superior to
those of Texas. Indiana levies school tax
of SI,4e5, 200, and the local taxes amount to
$S273,oo Massachusetts, raises by general
tax $4,000, by local taxation So, goo, ooo
New York by general taxation S2,236,-
600, by local $1,000, 900; Michigan
by general S5I4,ooo, by local SI,I77,ooo;
Ohio by general SI,5SI,ooo, by local
$4,000; Connecticut by general $297 900,
by local Sligo, 900, and Illinois by general
taxation ST. 200, 900 and by local So, $40, 600.
Iowa does not as State furnish a cent for
educational purposes, but its district taxes
amounted to S4o4o,ooo. Texas imposes a
general tax which yields $I,II7,ooo, but
within its borders not penny is collected by
district taxation. The difference between the
results arrived at is apparent to every thinking
man and no doubt exists of the course which
Texas should pursue.

MoST persons are aware that teas are
usually imported to this country in what are
termed "caddies or Chests" which are
lined with heavy lead packing. The process
may be good one, but it is expensive, and
opinions are divided as to the injurious influ-
ence of the lead-packing upon tine tea. An
innovation has recently been introduced by a
San Francisco firm which has been very sue
cessful and is likely to create a revolution in
the tea trade. 1t consists of packing the teas
in original tin packages containing from one
to six pounds. This does not add to but
rather lessons the expense of shipment and
gives small consumers the advantage of re-
ceiving the tea as imported without being
handled or "doctored " by intermediate re.
tailers. The tin for the packages is shipped
from this country to Japan as ballast. 1t en-
ters the ports duty free and is there made b,
special machinery into useful, convenient anC
ornamental packages without the aid of lead
Tea is packed in them, and it is shipped anc
sold to consumers in the same state as i'm
norted. The obtaining of cheaper, bette
and purer tea is the result of the new system

Old Ned's son returned from college.
The old man looked forward to the
event, and had arranged dinner, to
which he invited large number Of ac-
quaintances. The young man was
modest, and, to the great humiliation
of his father, made no attempt to dis
play his learning. The old man waited
several days, and, when at last he saw
no evidences of his sons education, he
approached him and said:

Judge, you are very smart man. I
would like to ask you a question, re-
M 'r;ied Gilhooly to Judge Blackstone,
one OF the most eminent lawyers Of
Austin.
What is it?" questioned the Judge.
Two twin sisters living in the same
house have babies of the same age, that
look precisely alike, and are dressed
alike. These two children got mixed
up, and the question is, how will the
mothers go at it to find out which child
belongs to them?"
of the children were as much alike
as you say, perhaps they were not mixed
up at ALL"
"But they changed"
care you sure OF it?"
"Certainly."
"Then change them back, and each
mother will have her own. Give me
something harder, ,"-I'erns SJti11Js.
