was, where did he get his liquor? No one
would for moment suppose that he could
get anything to drink in St. Paul on Sunday,
for it is pleasing tradition that saloons are
closed on that day. The fact that he had a

There are between 25, 600 and 80, ,00o
Chinese in San Francisco, the exact
number being probably nearer the
former than the latter number. They
occupy the centre of the town, and though
some few are scattered about in all direc-
tions, ten blocks is the maximum they
hold. From the exterior there is little
to distinguish their houses from those OF
white men, save that their stores have
white signs with red hieroglyphics
hung out. and on the walls Of the alley
ways are their red placards with black
letters. The theatres and the restaur-
ants are the only places which from
their exterior attract attention. They
are often plentifully decorated with bril-
liant coloring, gliding and bright-hued
lanterns. Once year the houses,
stores, temples and theatres of China
town are thrown open to the public, and
the celebration of the Chinese New Year
is the only occasion on which an insight
into their mode of living among them
selves can be obtained. Just prior to
this festival all Chinatownis subjected
to scrubbing, cleaning and painting, SO
that the whole is on view when it is
at its best.

Two months later Peter Featherstone's
irons were taken of, and one night at
10 o'clock he was transferred 10 the ship
Saranac. She was to sail on the following
morning for the Gulf Stream, where Com
modore Wilson was to join the flagship
of the squadron.
II will take Featherstone with me, !"
he is said to have remarked to Lieuten-
ant Enshaw, ''and I will break him or
kill him.
THAT night, aboard the saranac, a
sentry saw shadow pass him and heard
q splash in the water.
Half an hour later half dead sailor,
with his bundle Of clothes tied around
hisneck with handkerchief, drew him
self out of the water. He looked across
the water where lay the black outlines
of ship, and the last man fogged in
the American navy hurled out a curse
and turned his face toward the great

Selection BY the sp,-

An observant rambler along the shores
will, here and there, note places where
the sea has deposited things more or les
similar, and separatedsthem from dissin
liar things-wilI see shihgle parted from
sand; larger stones sorted from smaller
stones; and viii occasionally discover
deposits of shells more or less worn by
being rolled about Sometimes the peb-
bles or boulders composing the single
at one end of bay, he will find much
larger than those at the other, interme-
diate sizes, having small average differ
ences, occupying the space between the
extremes An example occurs, If I re-
member rightly, some mile or two to the
west Of Tenby; but the most remarkable
and well-known example is that afforded
by the Chesil bank Here, along a shore
.ae--AA eiv4anr sr1iIaa 1nDc,. 4L--- z--a
ual increase in the sizes Of the stones;
which, being at one end but mere peb-
bles. are at the other end great boulders.
In this case, then, the breakers and the
undertow have affected selection-have
at each place left behind those stones
which were too large to be readily
moved, while taking away others small
enough to be moved easily. But now, if
we contemplate exclusively this selective
action of the sea, we overlook certain i'm
portant effects which the sea simultane-
ously works. While the stones have been
differently acted upon in so far that some
have been left here and some carried
there, they have been similarly acted
upon in two allied, but distinguishable,
ways. BY perpetually rolling them about
and knocking them one against another,
the waves have so broken off their most
prominent parts as to produce in all Of
them more or less rounded forms; and
then, further, the mutual friction Of the
stones simultaneously caused, has
smoothed their surfaces. That is to say
in general terms, the actions Of en-
vironing agencies, SO far as they have
operated unfortunately, have produced
in the stones certain unity Of character
at the same time that they have, by thei; /;
differential effects, separated them, the
larger ones having withstood certain vio-
lieut. actions which the smaller ones could
net Withstand. Popular Science Monthly.

How Alcoholic Liquors are Made.

Whatever may be our individual views
or prejudices in relation to the use and
abuse Of alcoholic liquors, the process of
their manufacture is very interesting
chemical operation. Proof-spirit is de-
fined by the United States internal reve-
nue. laws to be that Of alcohol and water
which contains one-half of its volume of
absolute alcohol and So. II parts Of water.
When the alcohol and water are mixed
together-while combining-contraction
in volume takes place to the extent Of
S.71 parts, resulting in 100 parts Of
proof-spirit. The law declares that the
duties on all spirits shall be levied ac-
cording to their equivalent in proof
spirits. The hydrometers adopted by
the Government for the purpose Of test
ing the degree of strength are graded
an marked % degrees) for water, 600
degrees) for proof-spirit, and (2OO de-
grees) for absolute alcohol, at standard
temperature of sixty degrees Fair.
Alcoholic liquors can be made from
any substance that contains saceharine
matter already formed by nature, or
from any substance that contains the
constituent elements that can be con-
verted by some artificial process into the
saccharine principle. In the United
States they are generally produced from
corn, rye, wheat, barley, rice, molasses,
apples, grapes and peaches; sometimes
from potatoes and beets. Vinous fer
mentation converts sugar, glucose, or
saccharine matter into alcohol and car.
bonic-acid gas the latter passing of
into the atmosphere.
In order to bring about vinous or alco-
ho'ic fermentation FIVE agents are indis-
rensable, viz, saccharine matter, water,
heat, ferment and atmospheric air.
Sugar Or saccharine matter In its various
forms is the only element from
which alcohol can be produced; the 9TH
ers are mere auxiIiaries to the decom-
position. Popular Science Monthly

a, Ocean Oil Well.

Captain Eden Of the British schooner
Storm King, bound from Utilla to New
Orleans, reports passing over submarine
mineral oil spring, bubbling and ripping
all around the vessel, and extending out
over $50 to 200 yards. This was about
$50 miles southeast Of the Passes. At
II a. NJ they were over the spring prop
er, and at 1880 A. N. outside the cir
cumference Of the oil circle. It is sup
posed that this spring is the oil cargo Of

Everything Is Lovely, and the Gocss
Hanas Hllh. =

This expression is a corruption Of an
old-fashioned saying that originated in
the early days Of this country.
AS most Of you know, wild geese, when
they migrate in autumn, form themselves
into lines shaped like the letter v, the
leader flying at the point, the two lines
following; and as they sail away, fal
above the trees, and beyond all danger
from guns-on those cold mornings when
the air is clear, and the sky beautifully
Iue-they seem full Of glee, and join in
a chorus: ''Honk, honk, honklp
Any one who has heard those curiously
sounding notes, never could mistake
them. And the folks on the earth be-
low who heard the birds wild call, in
old times, realized the happiness of the
winged creatures in being SO high and
safe. And so it became quite natural,
when two persons met each other under
peculiarly favorable circumstances for
this Or thst enterprise, for them to say \:
Everything is lovely, and the goose
honks high l''-6s. Nicholas.

It seems quite certain, says the Boston
Clltirator, that one of the three bills
which have been introduced in Congress
this session, aiming to control the manu-
facture and sale of fraudulent butter,
will pass. No measure has so large a
backing of the people. These bills are
popular everywhere except among a
few firms that are making immense for
tunes in the manufacture Of bogus butter
compounds, to the injury and destruc-
ton of the interests of 1000, 900 farm
ers. With tax of ten cents per pound,
imitation butter will then cost about the

A substitute for GunpOwdsr.

A substitute for gunpowder is de-
scribed in Science as having coma into
recent use in the American coal mines.
Caustic lime is ground fine and CONSOLE
dated by pressure Of forty tons in car
tridges. After the holes are drilled ip
the face Of the coal, an iron tube hall
an inch in diameter, with small groove
externally on the upper side, and several
perforations, is inserted the whole length
of the hole. The cartridges, which have
a groove to fit the tube, are then inserted
and tightly rammed, and the hole
tamped. A small force pump injects
through the tube quantity Of water
equal il bulk to the lime. The water
escapes through the perforations and
along the groove, saturating the whole,
and driving out the air. The tube is
then closed by tap to prevent the es-
cape Of the steam. which, BY its force,
cracks the coal away from the roof,
and then follows the expansion Of the
lime.

IN THE SOUTH.


There Is d Princess in the South
About whose beauty rumors hum
AS honey bees about the mouth
OF roses dewdrops falter from;
And o her hair is like the fine
Clear amber Of jostled wine
In tropic revels; and here
Are blue as riffs OF Paradise.
Such beauty as may none before
Kneel daringly, to kiss the tips
OF fingers such as knights of yore
Had died to lift against their lips:
Such eyes as might the eyes Of gold
Of all the stars Of night behold
With glittering envy, and 50 glare
In dazzling splendor of despair.
So, were ! but minstrel, deft
At weaving, with the trembling strings
Of my glad harp, the warp and weft
Ofrondels such as rapture sings
Fd loop my Tyre across my breast,
Nor stay me till my knee found rest
In midnight banks Of bud and flower
Beneath my lady's lattice bower.
And there, drenched with the teary dews,
I'd WOO her with such wondrous art
As well might stanch the songs that ooze
Out of the mockbird's breaking heart;
So slight, so tender, and so sweet
Should be the words would repeat,
Her easement, on my gradual sight,
Would blossom as lily might.
