Scylla Is a rocky CAPE on the west coast Of
south Italy, jutting out boldly into the sea 80
as To form a small peninsula just at the north
ern entrance to the Straits of Messina. The
rock Is about 300 feet high, and much hol-
lowed out below by the action Of the waves.
Navigation at this place was looked upon by
the ancients as attended with immense danger
This rock, according to Homeric legend, was
the abode OF a hideous monster. encompassed
with dogs and wolves. Charybdis n a cele-
brated whirlpool i'm the Straits Of Messina
Homer places IL Immediately opposite To
Scyila- II il was so, il has changed its situa-
ton since his days. The myth connected
with it is, that under a large fy tree, which
grew out OF the rock opposite ScyIla, dwelt
the monster charybdis, who thrice every day
sucked down the water Of the SEA AMI thrice
threw It up again Ships which tried in
navigating To avoid Scylla were often
wrecked ON Charybdis

1t has become sort of epidemic
among the Jacksonville papers to bloom
forth in alternate bursts of glory in spe-
cial editions upon the slightest provoca-
ton. The latest instance of this silly
craze is the ''Sub-Tropical edition. both
the morning journals of that city issuing
ftwelve-page editions, partially, and
with the exception of the Ponce de Leon
cuts) very crudely illustrated with
rough wood cuts, home made. The
Nsscs- Herald, i'm addition, has a very
reasonable looking map of Jackson
vile and some awful caricatures of dis
tinguished citizens of Jacksonville and
st. Augustine. An amateurish and very
florid attempt at description of the
Ponce de Leon also adorns @ each paper.
We admire enterprise, but it must be OF
the right quality and having the ring OF
the true metal-otherwse we ''can'i
abide it

Distance at which. the sound of Cannon
MAY lie Heard.

Tho conditions under which the sound Of a
cannon, even the sound ~ n human voice
can be hoard, are various. Atmospheric cur
rents unquestionably have something b. do
with IL, but there are local circumstances
which favor or disfavor the hearing of sounds
at great distances. However, tbe distance nc
which the car can distinguish sound del,eDds
both ON the intensity 81 the sound, tho
medium through which II IL transmitted and
other causes. Ia the Polar regions sir John
Franklin said The oonyeIsad with ease AT
distance of more than "A mile" Sound has
greater force la water GcIladon, by expert
nanis made in the Lake Geneva, estimated
that bell submerged la the SEA might be
heard at "a distance of more than sixty miles.
Franklin also says that he heard the striking
together of two stones ina the water half -
mile away. The report Of cannon travels
very fsr, because il communicates vibra-
ton to the soil. The cannonndo ~ Florence
miles on, and that of Genoa 100 miles OH. Ia
i l5G2 the cannon Of Mhyenoe was heard at
Timbeck, "a village ~ miles on. When tho
English landed ia Egypt tho firing WINS dis
tinctly heard 80 miles Off. La 1909 tho
booming Of the cannon Ia Iieligoland reached
Hanover, distance 81 l57 miles. The great
est distance nt which aTtihcially produced
sounds are known % have boen heard was ON
Dec. 4, lSl2, when the cannon Of Antwerp
were heard la the Erzegcbirge mountains,
$40 miles distant. Thes,oisea produced by an
intense eruption Of Mount cotopaxi, ia South
America, la 1874, were heard at a distance ~
600 miles.

by a number Of cattle raisers that such
feed is the cause Of disease among

good for fattening stock for the beef

edge that few acres OF salt grass in :
closed in an alfalfa pasture, is Of great
value to the stock, no matter for what
purpose they are raised. Many far
