Half a Mile Underground.

The Hasard colliery in France was
opened in 1912 by NJ. d'Audrimont. The
area of its concession is 4, ITO acres. The
colliery employs 96l workmen under
ground and 273 at the surface. Its out
put in 1886 was 232, 742 tons. The seams
worked vary from two feet to four feet
one inch in thickness, and the coal is of
semi bituminous character. A notable
feature in the working of the mine is
the use OF the Plom and the d'Andri-
mont excavator, an ingenious contriv-
ance for increasing the useful effect of
blasting. The shot hole is drilled in
the ordinary manner and the excayator
is introduced, which hollows out space
at the back of the hole much greater
than the diameter of the hole. This en-.
lnrged powder chamber is found to
greatly increase the useful effect OF
blast and also the proportion of round
coal. 1t is used in six seams in the coll
Lens, France. The Goals nre not
brought TO the surface of the shafts. but
only to level of 400 feet. whence an
endless chain road, two miles long, ex-
tends to Bay Bonnet.
The st Andre du Poirier mine claims
to be the deepest coal mine in the world.
1t has n royalty of SG4 acres and year
ly production of 200, 900 to $50, 900 tons.
There are two coal-drawing shafts. the
one 1852 feet deep, the other 3,0S3 feet
deep. The first shafts being deepened
to 3, l49 feet. Each of the pits is ven
tilated by Guibal fan working in
second shaft A remarkable feature in
the working at these mines is the COM
paratively low temperature experienced.
The maximum temperature is 70 de-
grecs Fahrenheit, and it is very often
considerably lower. The mir passing
along the "face" is not warm. This tends
to show that elevation OF temperature is
by no means the greatest obstacle in
working very deep es.-Ige IF Steel. /

Salvation Army Devotecs in India.

Canon Taylor's description of the way
in which the Salvation Army does its
work III India is full OF suggestions.
They enlist for life," he says, "giye
up everything they have, and receive
no payment, but are content with bare
subsistence. They abstain from the
flesh of animals, the slaughter of which
is an abomination TO the Hindu they
touch no alcohol; their food is hand
full of rice aud curry, which they beg
from day to day from those TO whom
they minister. Like the natives they
oil their bodies with cola oil, they go
barefoot, with turbans to protect them
from the sun, and their dress is q few
yards of calico, costing about five shil-
lings. The whole maintenance Of each
does not exceed two shillings n week, or
five pounds year. Like the successful
Moravian missionaries in South Africa
or the West Indies, their object is to be-
come natives, TO live among the natives
exactly as the natives live, simply ex-
hibiting a nobler life and higher aims.
They never argue or discuss doctrines,
or go into the evidences of Christian
ity. They exhibit the ascetic life which
appeals so strongly to the Hindu. They
say, See what our religion does for us.
how happy it makes us, and how it
enables ne to despise poverty and con-
quer the troubles of the world, how it
makes us contented and cheerful aud
free from sim The natives like the
drum and the tomtom, the lively sing
ing, and the bright banners and the
professions, and follow them in crowds,
while they find Church Missionary
Society services on the Islington model
dull and slow. 1t may not be high
ideal of religion, but it appeals to
Indians just as it appeals to the least
educated classes at home"

Japanese Babies.

The Yum Yum of Japan thus leads a
much less eventful life than the Young
girl OF America, says Frank G.. Carpen-
ter. She thinks she has fun. because
she knows no better, and her chief
employment, If she be one of the
poorer classes, is the toting of Ter baby
brother and sister upon her back. Ii Is
thus that her mother took care of her.
and the cradle for all the little Japanese
babies is the human back. Almost as
soon as the baby is born it is tied to the
back of the children next in age. and
the moment the mother begins 10 ex-
pect the advent of a second baby she
trains her little daughter in preparation
for 1t. AT first light doll is placed on
the baby's back, then heavier one is
substituted, and thus the weight is in
creased until it approaches that of n
baby. saw last week three year-old
child carrying dog strapped to its back
in this way, and as the baby staggered
along with it it met child of the same
age who had a baby tied on its back. and
the two sat down on their little heels
and played together in the mud. The
babies did not seem to mind it in the
least, and the infant Yum Yums here
cry less than do our little American
babies.

The Telephone Two Hundred Years Ago.

How rare it is to discover anything
that is entirely new is freshly exemph-
fed to us in what Robert Hooke wrotC
about what has become the telephone,
rs far back as 1864, or 224 years ago.
He said: "And as glasses have highly
promoted our'seeing, so it is not improb-
able but that there may be found
many mechanical inventions to improve
our other senses, of hearing, smelling,
tasting, touching, Ills not impossible
to hear n whisper furlong's distance,
it having been already done and per-
haps the nature of the thing would not
make it more impossible, though that
furlong should be ten times multiplied
And though some famous authors have
affirmed it impossible to hear through
the thinnest plate of Muscovy glass, yet

to hear one speak through wall q

ined how far octocoustics may be impro-
we'd, nor what other way there may be
of quickening our hearing, or conveying

ear; for that is not the only medium. /
can assure the reader that have, by the
distended wire, propagated the sound to
a very considerable distance in an in

and benefit the world in general, comes
to us from Europe. 1t is asserted that
a German scientist has discovered pro-
cess by which aluminium can be made ut
about the cost of first-class steel. Alum
mum is pure white metal, one-third
the weight of steel, absolutely incorros-
i've, and of such tenacity that it would
almost entirely supplant not only the
heavier metals used in building, but
could also be utilized for countless do
nestle purposes. Vehicles, engines, ar
tillery, ships, from keel to topmast, al
most anything in fact, could be most adj
vantageously constructed of it. In fact,
if the dreams of its inventor become re-
allied, the iron age, like the bronze and
stone which have preceded it, must now
give place to something infinitely more

THE disastrous floods of the past two
years in Georgia are attributed to the
wholesale destruction of forests at the
headvaters of the rivers affected. I'M
mense tracts of timber lands in the
mountains of East Tennessee have been
bought by English companies, which
are sweeping away the lumber at an
alarming rate. The pine belt of South
ern Georgia is being cleared off at the
rate of 200 square miles year, and the
net result of the slaughter is increasing
damage by floods and prolonged
droughts.

FASHION FANCIEs.

After all, the handsomest, most ele
CANT and becoming gown for woman
not fat, short and clumsy is OF black
velvet.
This is an ostrich feather season.
Fans, boas, band trimmings for hats and
dresses, and tips and plumes for bon
nets and hats, all of ostrich feathers. are
in high favor.
Smock frocks are all the go and ore
'sEnglish, you know" They are simply
skirt tucked above a deep hem and
gathered full about the neck and again
at the belt into wide band. Some OF
them have herring bone embroidery.
The fur of the bear, which two seasons
ago we walked upon, has now gone up
in price and estimation, and in the form
OF an enormous long boa is hugging all
the pretty girls about their necks, or in
the huge muff shape is holding their
hands without squeezing them. If his
popularity continues, there will I'M
doubleday be corner in bears.
The newest and handsomest made-up
wraps for little girls and girls generally
under sixteen are made with "angel !"
sleeves, long and flowing. Some wraps
have detachable capes. New wraps are
seen in terra Gotta, with gilt braid and
with braiding in gold and black French
effects. The newmarket has been kept
from going out of style by these varia-
tons and embellishments.
In spite of all the assertions of fashion
reporters that long cloaks alone will be
worn by fashionable women, there are
unnumbered and innumerable short
wraps in velvet, bengaline, cloth broche
and plush seen along the fashionable
thoroughfares, and these are all in new
shapes, new colors, and made as dressy
MS possible with embroideries and passe-
menteries of jet, silk cord, metal, lace,
ribbon, fringes and 'motifs" or agraffes,
glittering with lain fringes.
Fine Atwood serges are much used.
They are durable and handsomely col
ored, and when trimmed with any of
the popular braids or simply tucked and
finished with deep hem make useful and
chic little gowns. Two good things about
white serge are that dampness does not
affect it and it can be laundried
Scotch tweeds are also in demand for
little peoples winter suits, and are
warm and stylish-looking, and require
but little trimming. As rule, the
palmer they are the better they look.
A stylish winter gown for young
lady is made of golden brown camel's
hair, with stripes in cashmere patterns,
in which scarlet, green, bronze and gold
are richly blended. The skirt is plain,
with most OF the fullness mnssed at the
back. The jacket corsagc has Charles

Morphine and Its Victims.

In the case OF the latest victim of the
opium habit whose martial inconsistent
cies have reached the courts, the key to
the unhappy situation is found in the
statement made by friends of the de-
fendant HShe was a great sufferer
from neuralgia, and was dosed with NOR
phine to relieve her Of the excrucinting
pain" Who dosed herr Nine persons
out of ten will answer I" Doctors. Z"
While it would be scarcely just to lay
the blame for the downfall of a beauti-
ful woman at the doors of the medical
profession, it cannot be denied that the
majority of women truce their first in
fatuation for the insidious drug to the
prescription which dear Doctor So-and-
so gave them to alleviate pain. Doctors
90 not err in prescribinga valuable rem
edy when it is necessary to do so; but
they err previously when they do not
solemnly warn weak or self-indulgent
women against the dangers which sur
round its constant use. Druggists in
form us that the extent to which NOR
phine is used by women in the well. to-
do ranks of life is perfectly appalling.
Such being the case, and the evil hav-
ing been primarily brought home to the
medical profession, it is clearly the duty
of that profession to do its utmost. by
means of lectures, publications, and
private counsel, to point out the destruc-
ton of soul and bodywhi must newt
ably follow constant indulgence in the
opium habit. --Drake's Magazine.

THE Wheeling Intclligencer. respect
fully suggests that the name of West
Virginia be changed to Kanawha. Every
State, it says, should have distinct
name of its own, so far removed from the
name of any other State that no confu-
sion OF names can arise. 1t should have
well-sounding name. 1t should, if
possible, take its name from some dis
tinctive feature of its own. In the no.
mencinture of American States and cities
and villages it is desirable to preserve
the rich. native IndiGn names. For this
State Kanawha answers every one OF
these requirements.

ton concerning thecomparatiVely rec1n'
prevalence of evening funerals; III Is Dc
coming a custom. Several causes COM
bine to encourage it. First, 1t is less
expensive, the interment takes place
quietly the next day, and the iuheraI
cortege may be, perhaps only the hearse
and one carriage containing clergy man
and some representative member OF tne
family. Frequently, too, a tunerai ID

town for interment and an early START
must be made the following morning,

about gaslight and funeral trappings;;
Death is natural; its accessories should
be as little artificial as possible. just
as the light from chandelier increases
the ghastliness of the corpse beneath,
