UndeRwrsasA waters.

Professor Dunbree shows, IN IN inter
esting paper on the above subject in the
Popular Science Monthly, that under
ground waters are potent agents In the
formatioa OF minerals. Tho following
extract viii be found instructive:
The mode Of formation, or, as Button
said, the genesis Of minerals, il one OF
the interesting questions Of their history.
But the problem could not be approached
until geologists had furnished precise
data on the conditions Of their bearing.
satisfactory solutions have recently been
obtained in the case Of certain number
Of mineral species. Synthetic expert
ment, placing itself in the circumstances
that seem TO have presided At their for
nation, has succeeded in reproducing
them, with their crystalline forms and
al. their essential characteristics, and has
thus completed the demonstration
Of their origin. By means Of this meth
cd Of demonstration We have been able
to ascertain that many minerals are due
TO the action Of subterrsnean waters.
From the most ancient epochs these va
ters have circulated through the crust Of
the earth, where these have LETT, 40 null
tiuds OF points, signs relieving the part
they have played, and the course they
have taken even more clearly than con-
temporary phenomena have done.
The ssdimentary beds, formed like the
deposits which the sea spreads every
day in the bottem Of it's basin, are often
distinguishable from one another, even
at first sight, by certain exterior charact-
ers. The differnces are for the most
part produced by the action Of the sub
terranean waters, o. is demonstrated by
the animal vegetable fossils, which were
for a long time designated as pesrifacation,
or, rather, by thechsmical changes which
these fossilized bodies have evidently un-
dergone.
d. Here shells and corals, showing forms
perfectly preserved down their slightest
details, are no longer composed OF
.corbonate Of lime, as they certainly were
during the life Of the animal TO which they
belonged, but are essentially different sub
stances, quartz having entirely taken
the place Of the calcium carbonate.
There are also other minerals, such as
pyrites and sulphate of baryta, which
have penetrated and crystallizsd within
the cavities which the bodies Of these in
vertebrstes occupied.

Not Killed by Nsvsies.

ALBUQUERQUE IN. NJ November "a
Old man Patterson, the leader Of the
party which has been prospecting on the
Navajo reservation in search Of the lost
Adams mine, and two remaining members
of his party, Baker and Christiano, have,
after q mysterious absence, come to
light. Patterson arrived here to-day
from Winslow, A. t., where he left his
companions, except Smith, who was
murdered by the Navajo Niche. The
party had many narrow escapes, but
made a thorough exploration Of those
portions of the reservation where white
men seldom enter and return alive. Pat
terson says that no precious metals exist
on the reservation, but that coal abounds
everywhere, and that coal oil drips from
the rocks in many places. The Indians
watch prospectors constantly and kill
them at every opportunity. +.

A WARNING.

The modes of deaths approach are
various, and statistics show conclusively
that more persons die from diseases of
the Throat and Lungs than any other
1t is probable that everyone, without ex-
ception, receives vast numbers of Tuber-
Gle Germs into the system and where
these germs fall upon suitable soil they
start into life and develop, at first slowly
as Is shown by slight tickling sensa
ton in the throat and if allowed to con-
,inue their ravages they extend to the
ungs producing Consumption and to the
Aead, causing Catarrh. Now all this is
dangerous and il allowed TO proceed will
in time cause death. At the onset you
must act with promptness; allowing cold
to go without attention is dangerous and
may lose you your life. AS soon as you
feel that something is wrong with your
Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, obtain a bot
tie of Boschee's German Syrup. 1t will
