DR.. Schomburgh, of the ADELAIDE Boz
tanio Gardens, has reported facts which
lead 10 the belief that the production of
sumac viii become a leading industry of
South Australia ut an early day. The eli
mate OF that part of Australia seems to
agree with both the "Rhus c0rnaria' and
the "lhu sootinus," of Mediterranean
coast origin, the powdered leaves and
tWlgs of which constitute sumac.

Civil Engineers, London, Capt. MOBILES
said; 'Fwenty-hve years ago our most
powerful piece OF artillery was S.
FOUNDER, throwing a projectile with a
velocity OF $50 feet n second. Now the
weight Of our guns is increased from D
tons to 100, the velocities from 1000 to
1000 feet, and the energies from 100 foot
tons to over 5000 foot-tOns.'

trielle this simple method for testing the
quality Of the leather used for betting: A
small piece Is cut out of the belt and
placed in vinegar. If the leather has been

struck on charcoal, which stopped the loss

DID HE TAKEA SCALP?
The Charge Against Capt. Howard Re
peeted with Fuller Particulars.

FROM the Aeeo York Sun.
MONTREAL, Jan. 6,--All the French
Canadian papers have furious editorial
articles against Capt. Howard, who has
been charged with scalping the dead at
Batoche. The Captains partial denial has
only increased their bitterness against
him. Towards friends here did not al
brst believe the charge, but now public
opinion appears TO have come TO the con
clusiOu that he has convicted himself.
The Post of Monday evening not only re-
peated the charge, but II gave additional
particulars. 1t saws that when Howard
was in the act Of ecalpIag the dead man
he found that his own knise was not
sharp enough, and borrowed The knife

made therefore, to discover tsantdote.
Asindicated in a carefully written arti-
le on the subject, published in these sol
umns three weeks ago, the disease has

experiments tried to check ito rayages,

WHITE HOUSE WEDDINGS.

The White House has been the scene of several
weddings, each and all of more or less display.
Probably the wedding of Nellie Grant and Alger-
non Sartoris, on May 81, 1874, was the most
brilliant of the half-dozen taking place there.
The East Room was the scene, and the pair stood
under an immense floral bell, with background
of flowers filling the big east window. There
we're six bridesmaids and distinguished company.
1t was a morning wedding and General Grant
gave his daughter away, with fearful eyes an d
ill.concealed emotion. Later on in President
Hayes's term, his niece Miss Emily Platt, and
General Russell Hastings were married. The
wedding was in the Blue Parlor, decorated with
flowers, and here also the bride stood under bell
of flowers. To go back to the beginning of the
White House weddings, the first one was in Pres
ident Madison's time, when Miss Todd, relative
of Mrs. Madison, was the bride, and John g.
Jackson, of Virginia, who was then member OF
Congress, was the groom. The first East Room
wedding was that of Elizabeth Tyler, whose father
was then President, and William Waller, of Will
liamsburg, Va. Miss Tyler was just nineteen, as
was also Nellie Grant, when married. President
Adams's son, John Quincy, Jr., married his cous-
in, Miss johnson, in 1926. The wedding took
place in the White House in President Adams's
administration. When General jackson was
President there were two weddings in the White
House. Miss Easten his niece, and Mr.. Polk, of
Tennessee, and relative Of Jackson, we're mar
ried. The other was that of Miss Lewis, of Nash
vil!e and Mr.. Paqueol, who was afterward French
Minister to this country. Martha Monroe mar
ried Samuel Gouveneur, who was for while
President Monroe's private secretary. This we'd
ding took place in the East Room, and the bride
was just turned seventeen.
The wedding of Mr.. Cleveland was the ninth
taking place in the White House, but it was the
first wedding there of a President. President
Tylers second wife was the first and, so far, only
mistress of the mansion going there as bride.
Mr.. Tyler and Miss Gardner was married in New
York, but came on to Washington and held their
wedding reception in the White House. Her
portrait, painted soon after, now hangs in the
Green Room.
