smart man tried to fool Harvard pro- lessor by sending him from Mexico two curi- ous specimens of ancient native copper work, one being in the form of grotesque idol and the other bearing some resemblance to a fantastically decorated vase. Upon minute examination he detected an ingenious swim dle.- He found single black, wiry hair from an Indians head projecting from the part most thoroughly carbonized and deeply imbedded in it, and as no hair could have grown in a solid mass of crude copper, a chemical examination was made. This re- vealed the fact that a compound of resin and some other substances formed both the car- bonized matter and the whole inside of the articles.

The English chemists now say that they have discovered in huorine universal sol
 vent. It combines with all the metals. In
 uniting with sodium, potassium, calcium,
 magnesium and aluminium, the metals be-
 come heated even to redness by the fervor of its embrace. Iroa filings, slightly warned,
 burst into brilliant scintillations when ex. posed to it; manganese the same. Even the noble metals, which even at a melting heat proudly resist the Vaccinations of oxygen, suscumb te this chemical siren at moderate temperatures.

much narrower than the others. There
are two of them, and they are separated
by folding doors. The front room will
be fitted up as parlOr, in which lead

the general use of the members of the

on the opposite side of the hall will be

sharp and effective canvass work. At

perience goes, is unique in railroad
history. | refer to the trouble arising
from Quicksands. From Western
Kansas to the mountains Quicksands
are to be found in nearly every stream.
no matter how small, and to success
fully bridge them required an eXpendi-
ture out OF all proportion to the size of
the stream to be crossed. We tried pile
driving, but the longest piles disap-
peared without touching the bottom.
Then filling with earth and stone
was attempted, and met with
equally poor success, as the quick
sand was apparently capable of
swallowing the entire Rocky
Mountains. The only means of cross
ing was found to be to build short truss
bridges across them. This was very eX-
pensive, but was the only thing to be
done. AS an instance of this practically
bottomless nature of the quicksands, [
may cite the case of an engine that ran
off the track at River Bend, aboutninety
miles from Denver, on the Kansas Pa
cific. The engine, a large freight,
fell into quicksand. and in
twenty minutes had entirely dlsap-
peared. Within two days the company
sent out a gang of men and wrecking
train to raise the engine. To their sur
prise they could not find trace of it.
Careful search was made, magnetized
rods were sunk to the depth of sixty
five feet, but no engine could be found.
1t had sunk beyond human ken, and
from that day to this has never been
discovered. Cattle and horses are
frequently lost, the only animal
that is safe being mule-the only ami
NAL that never gets caught. No greater
instance of the intelligence of this
much-maligned quadruped can be cited
than the skill and care with which it
avoids an unsound bottom. As its hoofs
are much smaller and narrower than
those of a horse it would mire down in
places where a horse could safely
pass. Recognizing this fact, whenever
a mule feels the ground giving away I'M
der his feet it draws back instantly and
cannot be induced to advance step, al

The Pope On Human Liberty.

New York News.
A new encyclical letter from the
pope is to be published shortly. 1t is
entitled ''De Libertate Humana,' and
it is continuation of the explanation
of social and religious doctrines con-
tanned in former one. His holiness de-
velops the theory of human liberty, aft
er establishing being and life. by a Sc
ries of profound metaphysical consider
ations. He explains how the human
race must educate itself and rule its lib
erty so as to reach the double aim of spir-
itual and natural bliss. The pope touches
upon liberal questions so far as they
concern individuals, the family and the
state. He condemns liberty of opinion,
liberty of speech, of the press and of re-
ligion, when they are placed in opposi-
ton to natural and divine rights. He
states that Catholics must and should
take share in political struggles, and
he gives certain rules for different
countries. The letter is destined to
make profound and well-advised SEN
sation, inasmuch as it aims to explain
and clear up all misunderstanding and
ambiguity.
