The Home of Princess Louise in Bermuda

The Home Of Princess Louise in Bermuda,
In the second story are six large
sleeping-roOms and handsome bou-
doir fitted up expressly for the use OF
the Princess. The furnishing of each
of the sleeping-rooms is different. In
one of the furniture is all of brass,
in another all of iron, in others Of wal
nut or mahogany The apartment in
tended for the royal visitor is newly fur
nished with articles brought from Lon
don. The bedstead is of iron and ma
hogany, and canopy of fine lace hangs
over it By the side of the bed is a cab,
met, over which is spread a silk and
velvet cover. On this cover are en-
br0idered several insignia belonging to
the royal family. In the center is a
large crown, and beneath the crown,
Louise's initial letter. 1t is almost sac
religious, no doubt, to call such great
parsonage Louise; but that, | under
stand, is her name. In talking with
one of the natives yesterday accident
ally spoke of her as Her Nibs,' and
the Mortified expression on the natives
cOuntenance told me thatsomething was
wrong. Then l learned that the lady s
proper title is ''Her Royal Highness. " |
am glad to know about this, for since
have examined her Bermuda quarters
feel on quite intimate terms with the
royal family. The bOudOir is little
gem of q room with several of the most
comfortable chairs and small book
case containing handsome edition OF
Shakespeare. In the park surrounding
the house may be found almost every
tree and plant botanist could name.

Mining with Lime,

The new method of mining coal by
breaking down with compressed lime,
which was first spoken of last Summer,
has now passed beyond the. experiment
tai stage, and its utility 'has been demon
strated beyond question. The opera
ton consists in drilling shot-holes in the
roof of the coal, into which cartridges
of specially prepared limestone are intro,
dueed. By forcing water on the lime
stone, steam is generated, and this, with
the expansive force of the lime, COM
pletes the work of disintegration. The
advantages of this method of coal min
ing are that the risk and dangers which
inevitably accompany the use of gun
powder or dynamite are abolished and
that the coal is obtained in large masses,
thus saving the waste incurred by blast
ing with explosives. As is well known,
coal, when broken small, is deteriorated
in usefulness and price by upward of 4C
per cent; but much of this waste is
saved under this new system, as much
greater proportion of the product is
large" coal. Where the miners are
paid according to the large coal they
mine the new invention will increase
their income without altering the rate
of wages. 1t is thus an invention that
is likely to produce good results, me.

The Origin of Races.

The negroes have q set of myths,
some of which, in crude way, rival,
and not IL little resemble, those of antiq-
uity. One of them, which is told in
many parts of the. South as well as here,
is implicitly believed by some of the
more creduIous blacks. Here it is as it
comes from the lips of one of them:
Years and years ago dere wasn't but
two nashuns on de earth, and both OF
dem was black. One nashun de Lord
loved eber so much. Dis nashun he
took to de banks Of de blessed ribber
and say, Jump in. But dey didn't
like de water, SO dey jump and goes obeI
de ribber on de front OBJ dere hans and
de sole of de foot. Dat nashun is now
de black one. But the other nashun,
dey Jump in all ober, and become all
white. Den de Lord show both nashuns
two chests, one big chest and one little
teller. And he says, Choose ye.' Den
de black race choose de big chest and
open it, and inside was q hoe and an AK
and spade. But the white race choose
de little chest, and open it, and inside
was nothin' but a pen and some pa

Adding to Arabic Soil,

Tie welcome news has been publish
ed that an artesian well, not far from
Denver. has succeeded in reaching wa
Ter. Should this news be true, it is of
immense moment to the people of the
United States. For it renders it pos
sible to make arabic land of millions
and millions of acres Of soil which is
now waterlGss, or which has but small
downfall of rain in short period Of the
year. 1t is the peculiarly of our west
ern deserts that very little water
makes them amazingly fruitful. 1t
now seems as if the time is coming when
all the deserts of the earth will be rem
Tered useful to man. The French En-
gineers have for years past been steadi-
ly at work reclaifling the Desert of
Sahara by means of artesian wells A
great number Of these have been sunk
along the western border, $50 of which
are in the province of Constantine, and
they are progressing steadily towards
the interior of the desert. M. jus, who
has for twenty years superintendent
these magnificent works, has recently
reported on this interesting topic, and
among the curious phenomena he no.
tees, is the finding OF fishes and crabs
in these waters AT very great depths.
He says the crabs. when cooked, have
delicious favor. 1t s.,'lear the world
will not have to pay heed to the dread
ful forebodings of Nautilus for maay
years to come, for the retaining of
deserts by artesian wells would furnish
soil to supply food for hundreds of mill
ions Of people. Some day no doubt
human ingenuity and industry will find
some means of utilizing rocky soils.
Perhaps stones and boulders NAV be
crushed. and proper chemicals added to
make new soil in stony places And so
in Time it may come toPass that a mold
n'ay cover the granite hills of New Eng
land which will be as fertile as the rich
river bottoms of the West. The earth
IS capable OF supporting twenty times
the number Of IFS present inhabitants
II is said if Ireland were as popnlous
relatively It's the Island OF Guernsey, it
would contain 100000 of people.
That it is not equally fruitful and pros
ptlous is because OF perver5e human in
situations in the way of wicked land

There is constant effort on the part of
that grim monster Disease" to become
master of mortal man. Only careful
observance of natural laws can render his
efforts unavailing. Yet too often injudi
cieus excuses, sudden changes. too great
exposure, improper food or other abuses
of nature open the gateway and disease
gains the victory. Sometimes its mastery
is so complete that Nature of herself can
never effect a dislodgcment. Ia such in

use of Browns Iron Bilters and we guar

Wilkins was Fighting.

Muscle don't make anybody belliger-
ent. On the contrary, it is law of
nature that the most muscular men are
the kindest in disposition. They hardly
ever get mad. I've seen these puny fell
lows who could hardly knock fly of
a wall, get furiously mad and buckle
up to man twice his size. One OF
them sort got mad with Judge Ham,
mond while he was making a speech
against him in a justice court, and
danced up and down behind him and
struck him in the back as hard as he
could drive. The judges back was two
feet and a half wide, and he simply
looked around with smile of surprise
and said:
What you doing Wilkins, what are
you about?n
I'm afightin','' said wilkins with a
hyena scream, and the judge just went
on with his speech.-BiA Arp.
