The Harvest Moon.

The September moon Is full on Monday
next, the 9th, snd passes into last quarter
phase on the 18th. The Harvest Moon,
which lie the full moon occurring nearest
the Autumnal Equinox, will be the moon
which fulls on the 9TH. The interval
between the rising Of the moon on sue
cessive days is shorter In the case Of the
Harvest Moon than In that Of the full
moon in any other period of the year.
The name Harvest Moon was given II
because 1t was the popular superstition
that its rising near the same time for
several successive evenings was special
interposition of Providence to afford
light to farmers in the gathering Of their
crops.

Naming of Washington Territory

A correspondent from Olympia to
the st. Louis Globe Democrat tells
how Washington was named in the
following:
There is an interesting bit of his
tory about the manner in which the
territory came by its name. Wash
ington was not the choice of the
early settlers of the north country.
The pioneers held u convention
at Monticello, on the Cowlitz river,
in 1852, They wanted to sever re-
lations with Oregon ard become
II separate territory. They adopted
memorial to congress. In that
document they set forth their popu-
lation, resources and area, and
asked to be recognized as II territory
with the name of Columbia. The
congressional committee, to which
the memorial went, reported favor
ably bill and retained the name of
Columbia. But when the bill was
put upon its passage, Il Kentucky
member, Richard IL. Stanton, arose
and moved To substitute Washing
ton for Columbia. He argued that
Columbus had been honorod by hav-
ing the District of Columbia named
after him, but no state or territory
had been given the name of the
father of his country. Mr.. Stanton's
amendment went through and by
this change, in February, 1853,
Washington Territory got the name
which those desirous of having
some other, were not strong en- ough
to change.

Frances Sinking Fund.

The Engineering and Mining
Journal describes II long series of OBJ
servations that has been carried out
all over France since the year 1884
for the purpose Of detecting any
variations of the level of the land.
These observations show that de-
preston from south to north is in
progress. While on the coast of the
Gulf of Lyons no alteration of the
level has been noted on the line be-
tween Marseilles and Lille, "a stretch
of $40 kilometers, the ground is
sinking toward the north at the
various rate of three ccntlmeters
yearly. Should this rate of depres-
sion continue, northwestern France
would in the course of II few CEN
turies encounter calamity similar
to that which, at the end of the
thirteenth century, befell the Meth
erlands.

A Valuable Timepiece.

Chief of Police Packard, of Hart
ford, Conn, carries n watch that il
indeed II novelty, as well as n valu
able timepiece. Without opening
the watch the time of day or night
to the minute can be ascertained.
BY pushing down spring on the
outer edge Of the case, the hour is
given by the striking of miniature
gong, as are also the quarter hours
and minutes. If, in the night, the
owner wishes to know the time, it
is learned in very few seconds,
and is found out in this way: If it is
six minutes to 3 o'clock, one of three
little gongs will strike two; two
gongs then strike alternately three
strokes, each giving the three quar-
ter hours, and another gong strikes
nine-two hours, three quarters and
nine minutes, making the exact
time six minutes to 3. The chief
said that eleven years ago the watch
would cost 81, 200, but at the present
time the watches are sold for S450.-

Boy and Eagle Have a Fight.

Charles Bartlett, young lad, had
II desperate encounter with a bald
eagle while hunting in the Sylvan
Lakes woods, near here. He saw
the bird soaring above the tree tops
and shot at it.
He only succeeded IN slightly
wonnding it, and as soon as it drop
ped to the ground it arose and went
boldly toward the boy and began an
attack upon him. The bird fought
viciously with talons and beak, fly
ing at him and endeavoring to
gouge out his eyes. In the struggle,
that lasted several minutes, Bartlett
could with difficulty free his cloth
ing from the long, sharp talons of
the bird. Finally he released him
self, and ran sufficiently far away
to shoot another charge ut it. This
time he killed the aerial monster,

SAWDUST,

There is evidently great need for
q new invention for the cheap and
easy utilization of sawdust, aud if
inventive people would study the
subject doubtless something prac-
tical might be realized. In Canada
the depositing of sawdust in the
rivers is forbidden by law. Re-
Gently there was conviction and
fining prominent mill owner, at
Peterboro, for depositing sawdust
and mill refuse in the Otonabee
river, IN coptravention to the regu-
lations of the department. Mr..
Irvine, the defendent i'm the case,
was fined $50 and costs, or twenty
days imprisonment. In rendering
judgment, the magistrate said that
the evidence showed that large
quantities Of sawdust escaped from
the defendants mill into the Oton-
abee liver, which river contained
valuable fish and was navigable for
steamers. 1t was well known, he
said, that the mill refuse from the
Peterboro mills for the past forty
years had been freely emp:ied into
the river, and that for twenty miles
below the tanks Of the river were
lined with accumulations of saw
