HEAT THAT IL HEAT.
A Visit to q Nstsd Man Who 10 at Work
on Curious Problems.

on CURIOUS froOiemss
New York Letter in Boston Journal.
called upon the venerable Ericsson
Yesterday, the builder of the Monitor,
to find out how the sun engine, upon
which he has been working for so many
years, was getting on. Ericsson still
lives in big oid-fashioned house at No.
36 Beach street. When not employed
in devising bis tremendous engines Of
marine warfare, of which the Destroyer
is the last work, he has been trying to
make a sun engine which would do prac-
tical work at cost which would make
il Of use in climates where the sun was
hot and coal scarce. His sun engine, as
completed last year and employed in
pumping water in the rear of his house,
he pronounces to be practical affair,
which will do valuable work in the trop-
les. His last three years havs been de-
voted to the more purely scientific prob
lem of determining the temperature at
the surface of the sun. Accord, to
tn ,usa nds of observations he has made
and the hundreds of calculations of ex-
treme nicely he estimates the heat of
the sun at 1.3O3,640 degrees Fahrenheit,
a temperature the mere mention of which
makes our complaints over to-day's 20
seem very unreasonable and even l,3OS.-
$40 degrees is not quite enough Tor the
Captain, who says that he has omitted
from his calculation several factors which
will make the sun out to be good deal
hotter than that.
Captain Ericsson is in his eighty-sec-
ond year, but no one watching him at
work or hearing him talk would take
hIm to be more than sixty, and we'll

medately following the shower some
men who were at work on the fog-horn

cause. The roof of the building and the
pier of the lighthouse had in an instant
been covered to the depth of an inch
with dry, chalk-like substance. The
surface of the lake, too, as far as they
could see, was covered with like sub
stance, which the waves lashed into
foam. The men at the lighthouse were
scared for a time, but as no harm came
they soon began tn look about fol an ex-

A Horse stung to Death by bees.

On Friday last William c. Simmons,
living six miles north of La Grange, lost
very valuable horse by being stung to
death by bees. A negro was plowing in
the lot where the hives are located, and
by his awkwsrdness he drove against
one of the hives, upsetting it and mad
dening the bees, which attacked the ne
gro, who ran and left the horse to take
his chances alone. The horse, being Sc
riously assailed, ran and upset three
more hives. Just as he did so the plow
caught on the root of a tree and there
held him until he was stung to death.
Mr.. Simmons IN his humane efforts to
save his horse came near losing bis own
life, he being badly stung all over, blind

The sweetwnter Property.

Eugene N. Robinson returns from New
York prepared with funds to do thorough
work on the Sweetwater Company's min
ing property near Hamilton. Before the
end Of 1884 Mr.. Robinson, who is sole
manager, will have lone a vast deal OF
work extracting ore from bodies now in
sight, and in prospecting for the bonanza
which everybody believes is to be found
somewhere in the company's ground.
The Wheeler Tunnel has already been
driven within the old Hidden Treasure
limits. The prospect certainly is om that
seems good to speculate IN But If n 10 bonan-
"a is found, Mr.. Robinson, at least will have
made a thorough search for it. and will
come pretty near to settling the question
whether or not the company has the big
thing" that he believes it has. That's the
way to mine. Show some blood in rum
maging about in the bowels of the earth,
where it is expected ore may be found, and
not up in the trees, and don't give every,
body the blues by grunting, as some Sui
p~erintendents do, who act as though the
property may ''peter out" IL they hit hard,
and that they may lose their 'jobs" in
consequence Of such ''petering."
