Prof. Moseley, of the famous Chal-
l6nger expedition around the world, has
discovered eyes in the shells of Chiffon
idae, no less than II 900 being contain
ed in the shell of single animal. AS
the shell grows larger new eyes are
formed. No other mollusca have any
sense-organs in their shells, but the
chitonidae, in addition to eyes, have
elaborate organs of touch permeating
their shells.
In a recent lecture at the Lowell in
stitute, Boston, Prof. II. S. Ball, as
tronomer royal of Ireland, declared it
to be his belief that the masses of stone
and iron which fall to the earth as me-
teorites were originally thrown out by
| terrestrial volcanoes at q remote peri
cd in our planets geological history.
If so, the fragments must have been
projected beyond the influence of the
earth's attraction by explosions giving
them the tremendous initial velocity Of
six miles second.
Persons who are color-blind are US
ually either red-blind or green-blind,
and their infirmity is almost always
confined to one color. Cases of violet
blindness are rare, and no instance is
known of a person unable to distin-
guish between blue and yellow. 1t is
a remarkable fact that, while about one
man in twenty-five is more or less col
or-blind, the affection seldom occurs
among women, only one case having
been observed by DR.. B. Joy-Jeffries in
an examination of 400 ladies.

Madison lately had tremor which
was due not to u social or other earth
quake, not yeti a dynamite explosion.
n disturbance which shook the uni
"ersity buildings was caused by the
expansion and contraction of ice in
Lake Mendoza. Under the influence
ofintense cold the ice had expanded
until the shores could resist the pres
sure no longer, when the ice burst and
doubled up about four hundred feet
from the shore, and on Il line parallel
with it. The sudden release of the
shores from pressure caused the ire
NOR. This phenomenon of freezing
upon bodies of water having low
shores frequently results in the piling
up of huge rocks on the edge and the
overturning of trees. The shore line
of lakes frequently consists of gravel
| mounds forced up during successive
winters.-Milwauk Wisconsin.

that the Guernsey lily, that rare beauty,
which exaggerates the crocus and

a number of the bulbs on board, was
wrecked off the Channel Islands; the

A natural history book relates an an

thrown off the line and twelve persons
