A geological exploration of the Holy
Land has just been completed by an En-
glish party under Prof. Hull. The ancient
margins Of the Cuffs of Suez and Akaba
were traced to height of 200 feet above
their present level, showing that much of
the country was once submerged and has
been gradually rising. This rise of land
must have caused the separation of the
Red Sea from the Mediterranean, and
Prof Hull believes that those two bodies
of water were connected at the time Of the
Exodus. He thinks he has also discovered
that the Dead Sea, whose remarkable de-
preston gives especial interest to the geolo-
gy of Palestine, formerly stood at an ele-
vation of 400 feet above its present level,
or at $50 feet above the level of the Medi-
terranean. The survey is said to have fur
nished materials for the construction of a
much more satisfactory geological map of
the Holy Land than has hitherto been pos
sible.

Baron Noraenskiold convinced hims

Baron Nordenskjold convinced himself
last summer that he was wrong i'll suppos-
ing that the interior of Greenland was low
land free from snow and ice during part
of the year. The view that the country is
one of glaciers is confirmed by Mr.. Edward
Whymper, who has just given some particu-
lars of his own observations. He found the
height of the interior in the latitude of
Umenak (about 10 degrees 80 longitude
North), to considerably exceed 10000 feet.
From various mountains on the eastern
side of Davis Straits he has had views of the
whole of Greenland's interior between
about 50 degrees 30 minutes longitude and
II degrees 15 minutes longitude, and has
seen no break or depression within those
limits of latitude, while the country is
everywhere SO deep in snow and ice that
no rock or cragvisible.

The st. Patrick Parade-A Display that
Cost 300, O,OO0-A Chance for Reform
The Suicidal Afania-Political Potpourri.
| New YORK, March 20, 1884.
| EDITOR CHIEF:
| If any man had doubts on his mind of
| the correctness of Alderman O'Reilly' s
| boast that New York was the first Irish
city in the world in point of population he
would have had that doubt dispelled could
he have stood in Union Square on Monday
| as the st. Patrick procession passed-com
| panies, regiments, battaEons, brigades and
| divisions. 1t was great day for Ireland.
| No American saint, not even Yankee Doodle,
Brother Jauathan, nor Hail Columby, ever
received such triumph: some country cor
respondents might have called it an ovation,
but an ovation is only Il small affair; this
was triumph, and big one. AS we used
to say twenty years ago, the woods were full
of 'em; and what between the army on the
mareh and the thousands of admirers that
thronged the sidewalks, it looked as though
there might have been enough in the streets
of New York alone to drive the hated Sax
on into the sea, and free the land from the
Sassanach from the Hill of Howth to Din
gle Bay. The day was fine, and the music
was fine, and the flags and the clothes were
fine; and they had fine time generally.
AS stood looking at the procession of
thousands of laboring men, appearing gen.
orally we'll fed and clad i'll the finest of
broadcIoth, with cooked hats and costly
ostrich feathers, with magnificent silk
scarfs all spangled and hung with rich gold
bullion, I could not help asking myself
if it was worth our while to keep a lot of
miserable wretches suffering and starving
in Ireland. Why not import them here!
We can take care of them. There are only
about 100000 all told, and there are only
two and half millions that are opposed
to the British Government. Send a mill
ion of them to Texas, and make Col. Tom
Ochiltree Grand Head Centre, send 5o0,0 900
to Dakota, and scatter the other 100000
among the States and Territories, and in
five years from this they can be Aldermen
and Governors and Congressman, wear
cooked hats and green feathers if they
want to, and have two st. Patrick's days
every year with none to molest them nor
make them afraid. The parade cost many
thousands of dollars-not less, probably,
than 100000, if we consider the loss of
days work for many thousands of men.
Then there were the music, banners,
suppers, dinners, wine and whiskey, and if
it cost New York city 100000 what must
it cost for all the cities in the State, and
in the United States, and in the world?
Whether the money could not have been
better expended to tighten the sufferings
and wants of the millions at home than in
senseless parade abroad, is matter that
patriots must settle among themselves,
but it looks very much that way to an out
slider.

The Anglers association of Eastern
Pennsylvania met at their rooms on Arch
street, Philadelphia, the other evening,
After the consideration of routine mat.
ters was concluded the Rev. DIR. Wayland
Hoyt suggested that the executive com.
mittee prepare list of subjects, both Of
practical and scientific import, with re-
gard to the fnny tribe. Among the
titles of subjects suggested were: "The
Breathing of the Fish, and "What lie
Dies of When Taken from the Water. "
Upon the latter topic Mr.. Cardoza re.
marked:
al believe fish dies of intoxication
when taken out of the water not
alcoholism, but oxygenism, sort of fervid
exhileration, so to speak" Other subjects
named were, GLOW Fishes Feel Pain, ~
and "Upon What Food Fishes Live
al don't wish to complain said a
genial angler wearing gold-rimmed spec
tacles, approaching the reporter as he
spoke; "but we would like you to men
tion the scientific and other subjects we
now have under consideration. You
know" confidently, 1--WE don't want the
public to get the idea that we assembled
here merely to tell"
''It's story L can vouch for" ex-
claimed the well-known voice of Doctor
Hoyt, near the speakers chair; "knew
the man; saw the fish, positively true. ~
''All right; let's here it if it is true, -
chorused several voices.
"Well," said the reverend doctor, set
was a couple of summers ago. l was in
California. In San Francisco, near the
water works, was a large tank, and in
that tank was 4 fine, large California
trout 1t was very tame and the clerks
used to catch flies and hold them over
the water, and the trout would come up
to the surface and take the fly from their
fingers. Well, one day an idle. clerk,
tired of the usual thing, placed a nice,
fat fly the hook of a bent pin. His
troutship came up as usual and was
caught. The clerk released him and en-
joyed the joke. But would you believe
it, after that day twenty hotel clerks
could stand around that tank and that
fish would take flies from every one of
them except the man who played the
loaded fly on him. ."-PhiladelphiG Times.

How Cakes are Frosted.

In the window of a delicatessenn
store on Third avenue, there appeared the
head of large porker ornamented with
flowers and vines in an extraordinary
manner. A wreath of red and white
roses rested between his ears. There
was lilies and pinks in his jaws until his
teeth were buried out of sight, and a
miniature sunhower. covered his snout.
The proprietor of the store smiled when
asked about it and picked it out of the
window without saying a word The
questioner then saw that the head was
simply cake ornamented with various
kinds of frosting. "TheIe is art in
frosting cake as well as in painting" " said
Mr.. Schifferdecker, confectioner. 1T
takes an artist to initiate nature so close
ly as to deceive the eye The process of
ornamenting cake is very simple Sugars
of various colors are mixed with the
whites of eggs to thick paste. The
mixtures are put in cone-shaped bags six
inches deep. In the apex of each bag is
placed tin cone-shaped spout the small
end of which is round or serrated or fiat
according to the purpose for which we
use it. Holding the bag in one hand
and steadying it with the other we
squeeze the mixtures through the tubes
The shape of the tube helps us in form
ing the design. Thus fiat tubes serrated
on one side are used for leaves. Little
round mouthed tubes serve to make vines
and tendrils. To build rose we use a
thicker moisture, and form the rose from
it exactly as a sculptor would model one
in clay. sometimes make a rose with
nothing but little bit of wood not
much larger than a toothpick. In fact,
the tools used on elaborate pieces of con-
fectionery are nothing more than what 1
have told you, but we have to serve long
as apprentices before we can do the
work. ."-Neoo York Hotel Mail.
