Lecturing in Boston on the sun,
Professor Samuel p. Langley said that
If column of ice having diameter
at its base of forty-five miles, and eX-
tending to the moon, were erected on
one of our Western prairies, and all
the heat of the sun were concentrated
suddenly upon it, it would melt and
become paper in a single second.
Recent vestigations throw some
light on the relations between the
presence of starch and sugar in plants.
1t is found that sugar occurs in the
leaves and &C umulates in the stem
until the moment of the formati on of
starch in the seeds. 1t then passes
first into the inflorescence to support
it, and subsequently into the seeds
themselves, where it is replaced by
starch. The function of the sugar
would appear, therefore, to be that of
furnishing the seeds with the elements
of starch.
Lecturing recently upon the geologi.
cal history of Palestine, Professor E.
Hull, F. r. s., mentioned that the
physical phenomenon which renders
the Holy Land unique among all
countries is the remarkable depression
of the Dead sea, the surface of which
is not less than thirteen hundred feet
below the level of the Mediterranean.
AS the sea can have no outlet saline
matters gather in great quantity, and
24.57 pounds of salts are found to
exist in each hundred pounds of sur
face water, while the Atlantic contains
but six pounds in each hundred.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

In SOLID GOLD WATCH, aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, large proportion of metal il
needed only to stiffen and hold the engrav-
ed portions in place, and supply strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless. In
james Boss Patent Gold Watch Cases this
WASTE is saved, and soLID1TY and
STRENGTH increased by simple process,
at one-half the cost. A plate of SOLID
GOLD is soldered on each side of a plate
of hard nickel composition metal, and tho
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this the cases, backs,
centers, bezels, etc., are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. The gold is thick
enough to admit of all kinds of chasing
engraving and engine turning. These
cases have been worn perfectly smooth by
use without removing the gold. This Is
the only case made under this process. Each
case is accompanied Nth a raid guarantees
signed by the manufacturers warranting it to
rear 20 years. 10000 of these Gases
now carried in the United States and
Canada. Largest and Oldest Factory.

Going to Law for Two Gents.

1t is not often that parties go to law
for two cents, but the decision recently
announced by the Supreme Court of the
United States confirmatory of what are
known as the "Granger laws" was OBJ
tanned from a suit started by dispute
of that kind. A man wished to travel six
miles on the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy Railroad. and offered the con.
duetor the legal fare of eighteen cents
Tor three cents a mile), which was re.
fused. and the price fixed by the road,
which wasstwenty cents, was demanded
This was refused by the passen.
ger, and the man was put off the
train. He brought action for damages.
and the difference Of two cents finally
raised the question OF the constitutional
ity Of the laws passed by the Illinois
Legislature to regulate Che fares on the
railroads. The question that has thus
been decided on difference of only two
cents between conductor and way
passenger became one Of vast impor-
lance, not only to the travelling public,
but to the owners of 5000, 0O0, 900
worth of railroad property in the United
States. 1t was made a test case. and
was argued first in the Supreme Court
of Illinois and finally in the Supreme
Court of the United States, resulting, as
the public is aware in final decision
adverse to the railroads.

Excellent Displays by Druggists from
Several Different Cities.
Among the displays of drugs, chemicals,
perfumes, and soaps exhibited at the national
museum, in connection with tho pharmaceuti-
cal convention, are the following which have
not been previously mentioned:
The oriental like exhibit of Theodore Rick
seeker, of New York, in charge of Mr.. Fred
b. Watson, which includes pyramids of fra
grant toilet soap in many designs and flavors,
perfumery Of unrivaied fragrance, in beauti-

TIMBER LAND FRAUDS.
What Commissioner Mcfarland Has to
Say Upon the Subject.


The commissioner of the general land Office
said yesterday, in reply to inquiries with re-
gard to the timber land frauds discovered in
California: 81 have had knowledge of these
operations for some time, and have had
agents out there making investigations. In
consequence of reports receivedi from them
have suspended action upon alRtimber land
cases in California, Oregon, andSWashington
territory. The persons interested are not
getting any patents, and they will not get
any until / am satisfied as to the honesty of
their entries"
In explanation of the nature Of the illegal
operations, Commissioner Mcfarland said
that congress by special act provided for the
sale to individuals of separate tracts of timber
land in California Oregon, and Washington
territory, at $3.50 per acre. The fraud in
these cases consisted in the procurement by
one person of large number of such tracts.
through the cooperation of others, who pur-
chased them only to transfer them to him, in
clear violation of the spirit of the law. s--c7s-
:. =. Commissioner Mcfarland also said that
fraud of similar character had been dis
covered in connection with entries of coal
lands in Colorado that he now had force
'of special agents at work in that state, and
that he intended to examine carefully every
entry of such land.
The land offices in Colorado have been di-
rected to suspend action on coal land entries
until the results of these examinations are
known.
