The canyons were tie paradise Of liz
ards, and as We walked along they were
dragged from their seclusion beneath
stones, moss and bark, and in short
time the tin can was provided with an
abundant supply. Some were green,
long and snake-like, with forked tongue
and wicked eyes, others were black,
with white stripes, while others again
were resplendent with various metallic
hues. Piles of stone, that the sun had
not reached, often concealed = number
that were stiff and detormant and re-
fused to move until the sun had warm
ed them into lite. Though snow rare
ly falls in these mountain recesses ma
ny animals hibernate, especially rattle
snakes and many large lizards, all re-
treating to holes and not appearing un-
til the intense heat warns them into
life again.
"Here 10 another case Of protection, I"
said the naturalist, pointing TO large
leaf that came huttering down from II
high tree. Ii had the peculiar waver-
ing flight that falling leaves have aud
passed some ten feet or so above our
heads, where it lodged in q bush.
"You thought it was leaf" he contin-
ued, "but, you see, il is an insect" and
he securej the sunDosed leaf and held
up curious katydid for inspection.
The insect was almost exact In its
mlmicry, the wings being rich green
and having veins that resembled those
OF leaf even to the midrib; In fact, IL
was question whether its flight or It's
appearance was the most remarkable.
At any event, the object-protection-
was secured, as upon bush or twig II
became part of it, Cor. Philadelphia

An electric hand lamp is the latest.
The New York Fire Department think
of using it. Tt is at present employed
extensively in Paris. It's great advan-
tage is that dense smoke will not ex-
tinguish it. The lamp in shape resem-
bles a dinner-pail A convex protub-
erance of heavy glass on one side pro
tects the incandescent light within,
which is shed in front of the bearer as
in bull 's-eye lantern. The light is
seven-candle power and will burn for
two hours. The lamp gives light only
when it is held in the hand. This fea-
ture is considered drawback, as it is
frequently necessary for g. fireman to
put his light down whilehe is exploring
premises. The object of the inventor
was economic, that the materials oil
the blttery might not waste when the
light was not in actual use.

MECHANECAL ITEMS.

The largest locomotive in the world
is said to be the Decapo, built last
year by the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, in Philadelphia. 1t weighs
LA, 900 pounds.
|. PAPER roofs for buildings are now
made, which are said to be superior TO
anything heretofore used. They are
made fre-proof, and it is believed
they will last almost indefinitely.
RUBBER rollers may be turned by an
emery Wheel A circular saw will also
give good results, and printing press
ink rollers may be nicely trued up
with a fne-toothed, well-breasted cir
cular saw.
EXPERIMENTS have for some years
been carried out in italy to find some
thing that would resist forged steel
proiectiles discharged from a hundred
ton gun. At a late trial q chilled cast
iron plate four feet thick successfully
accomplished the purpose.
A DEVICE has been invented by which
electricity is made to record the
weights indicated upon scales or steel
yards, the application being especially
designed for the weighing of freight cars
while in motion. 1t is said that with
this device properly applied to the
scales an accurate account can be kept
of the weight of every car passing over
them, even at full speed.
The new plan of importing WOODEN
yarns and unfinished goods, to be
manufactured and finished here, has
already thrown / 900 Olneyville, E. L.,

not done The labor Of England and
Germany and the present tariff rates
permit undyed and unsecured goods to
be brought to the mill doors from Eu-
rope cheaper than they can be made
here.
A LONDON boiler maker has q new
patent boiler which is specially de-
signed to utilize hydrocarbons with or
without the combustion of coal. The
boiler is vertical and cylindrical, and
consists vertically of two parts, the
lower containing the fre-box. fre-door
and uptake, and the upper part or
combustion chamber containing g.
curved tube near the center, with side
spaces to allow aman to pass down to
CI0au OF repair when necessary. Lie
fre-box is constructed in the ordinary
way, only much shorter, and is suit
able for either coal, coke, wood or oil
as fuel.
THE subjoined figures, which are the

soup has been boiled it should be
strained; this may be repeated, then

like to have it, mix one egg and it's
broken shell with teacupful of cold
water, then to this add about a tea
cupful of hot soup, then stir it all into
the boiling soup; let it boil up well,
then set the kettle upon the back part
