The Australian Water Boring Com dany have just completed No. ? bore at Dunlop Station, Riverina District, at depth of 9I0 feet, the supply be- ing 100000 gallons daily. The water IS as pure and soft as rain water, be- ing suitable for domestic purposes. The strata passed through was first IS feet of sand and clay, next 50 feet of red sandstone rock, then T45ieet blue cretaceouS rock. from and below which supply of lS,000 gallons per day was obtained in porous white sandstone rock which was 50 feet thick, After this tue cretaceous rock was again struck and continued down 10 $40 feet, where the white porous sand stone was again struck. and was never lost till the full depth was obtained i; the water increased at every foot until the oyerseer, becoming alarmed at the extraordinary supply, stopped the sinking. This solves the question Of irrigation in the West of New South Wales.

Denver News.l

The Pikes peak cogwhcel railroad will be completed and ready for opera iion by May l, 1890 Tms news will be hailed with Joy by the thousands ot tourists, many of whom are denied even the privilege of paying S5 for a seat Tn wagon to reach the summit ot this great mountain, For some time the different trunk lines in the state have been figuring on taking hold of the subject, and now the mat ter is finally settled, and as soon as President Cable, of the Rock Island, has attached his signature to the ne cessary papers work upon the con. structiou oi the line will at once be commenced and completed as soon as possible.
 The road is 10 be built by a joint company, all the trunk lines in the state taking shares. The Denver d Rio Grande will superintend the con. struction, however, and Chief Engi' neer Briggs will leave for the peak in few days to look over and formally accept the survey, and the hne will bS built as originally projected.
 This will be one of the greates' tourist drawing cards in the state when completed, and It is expected that at least POO passengers per day will be hauled up and down the noun tain during the season,

compressed a.r as Motive rows. la France

The use of compressed ar as mo- tive power for tramways in Trance is extending. The system adopted is that invented by M Mekarski, direc- tor of the Nantes ,rsmways, winch have been open since 1879. Twoyea ago the system was successfully ap- piled on tbe iramways at Nogent, in the neigbborhood of Paris, and more recently on those of Befne and Limog- es. Tbis year it will be substituted for horse power on the tramways Of Lyons. The inventor asserts that hls system Is far more economical than borse traction the cost of coal per day of q machine equal 10 8 or 10 horse power being only 4s.--much cheaper ihan electricity or steam pow CT, and that the machinery is simple and does not require skilled mechan- ] ic 10 control it. The British consul at ] Nantes, in recent report, states that inc tramways Of tl!at town, which are worked hy the system of N. Mekarski, alluded 10 above, continue to give sat isfaciion. Tue cars are comfortable and run smoothly with little noise They do not interfere with he gener- al traffic m the streets, and their iui- manity from accidents IS remarkable The average speed is about eight miles per hour; but il can easily be increased or moderated, and Tn ease of need an almost instantaneous stoppage eff

rrs:ish ccn,poznd Locomotives

Experience with the English loco motive which the Pennsylvania road brought over, and which has been un- dergoing tests for several months, according to Pittsburg paper, will probably result in something valuable, though it is not probable that the English machine will ever be adopted as a whole. Of late it has been run ming from Long Branch to New York, and IS becoming better liked every day for its improving performances. The final test will soon be made. If these experiments prove, what is gen. erally believed by engineers now, that tho compound type will produce con- siderably more power at less cost than the styles of engines at present Tn use, then the compound system will be adopted at once by the Pennsylvania Company and applied to all its loco motives as rapidly as possible. It is likely to lc year, however, before such step is fully determined upon. One thing that has been discovered in the use of ihe "Pennsylvania" m reg ular service is that an English loco motive won't stand inc wear and tear of American tracks. The engine is too rigid and provided with too short springs to make an easy runner oyer our roads. The racking i,s gets on rough bits of track makes necessary frequent trips to the shops for trifing rapa,rs.

Dr, Brown-Sequard, who is 12 years old. says that his strength has greatly diminished during the past l2 years, and until using his elixir he was un- eqlal to any continuous physical CT mental effort After three hypodcr- mic injections of tie elixlr radical change took place in him and he found he had regained all tbe strength pos sessed many years ago. He was able to work in his laboratory for several hours al a stretch, standing all the time, without experiencing fatigue. In order 10 ascertain how long the good effects of the elixir would last, he stopped using the injections. For four weeks there was no appreclabie loss ot strength, but within five weeks after stopplng tue injections there was complete return to the state of weak. iiess previously existing. In order, therefore, to derive lasting benefit from the treatment the injections must be continued at least one or more times every month.

The Agricultural Department Tur3ci Into
 a Mairlnonsni Eurears
tFrom the Philadelr hia Record.


 Secretary of Agriculture Jerry Rusk is in hot water. He begins to wish that he had not been born. He de- sires it distinctly understood that the Bureau of Agriculture is for the dls- semination of seed, and tha: it is not matrimonial bureau. While he is willing to spend as much lime as pos siblc to have all the birds in the coun. try that come under his jurisdiction properly mated, he shrlnks at the idea of finding mates for all the farmers in the country, Recently the story was sent out that letter had been re- celved by Secretary Rusk from an az riculturist ont m Wyoming saying that. while Wyoming farmers appre- ciatea the valuable seed sent out by the Department of Agriculture, the real need oi Wyoming was for women, and he hoped the Secretary of Agri- culture would cevise some plan for sending young women out to Wyo- ming to become the wives of the thrift ty Western farmers.
 The item was copied in the newspa- pers, especially as letters had been received by the Mayors of some of tine cities in the East inviting them 10 go into the matrimonial busl- ness and help out their brethren in the far West. Last week Secretary Rusk received the following letter:
 "PHTLADELPHIA, July P, l6e9.-Tbe Hen. Secretary Rusk; While visiting m this city notice in one of our daily papers, the Record, ran thus: That farmer m Wyoming had wrlt- ten to you asking you 10 devise some means whereby young women might be stimulated to go West io become wlves of thrifty farmers. This Is the substance of the notice. As 1t has iieen one of niy most ardent desires 10 go out West, feeling that there was | vast work to be done there, and har- ing no relatives in that section, should be pleased if the gentleman in ques- ton should care to correspond with me so as 10 fx on settlement that may rroye agreeable and profitable. You can give the gentleman my name,
 -. Park avenue, Brooklyn, \. |.
 "Trusiing that I have not taken too much of your valuable time, l remain, etc, l "P. S..-Pleasc forward this letter as It is to the gentleman, and obige.
 The above is but sample of hun dreds of letters received by inc ania. bic Secretary They come hy mai and messenger. and most of them are marked "ln haste" He declares that if the thing keeps up he will be com pelled 10 bne an army of clerks or else go cut of business. The rush iOI men IS greater than ihe demand iol seeds. and the matter will be brougEl up at the next Cabinet meeting to sec Ii something can not be done toward getting husbands for the anxiou; women.

A body, thought to be that of Capt.
Schoonmaker, was found up the coast some
miles distant from the immediate scene of
the disaster. The bodies OF some of the lost
officers had not been recoerved at last ac-
counts, or if they came ashore they were so
mutilated or decomposed that they were not
positively identified. The admiral wants
to send the Nipsic home for repairs if she can
stand the trip
Nothing COT Id exceed the solicitude shown
by Mataafa for the comfort and safety Of
the shipwreck I'd American sailors. His men
worked like heroes rescuing the living dur
ing the storm, and since then have been per-
sistent in their offers of help and shelter.
The complete story of the wreck fully
disposes of reflections cast upon the Amer
lean officers III relation to the disaster by
their own countrymen. 1t is considered
plain here thai everything that good seaman
ship could do vas done, both in preparation
for the storm and in handling the vessels
after they were in its grasp. The British
steamer Calliope was saved by the power Of
her engines.

WE learn from the Pittsburgh CONNER
cial Gazette that the iron and steel indus
tries of Pennsylvania are on the down
grade. and reductions in wages are not q
matter Of choice, but of necessity. Fur
naces are going out of blast everywhere,
and, instead of there being talk of stsrt-
ing up again, the idea is to move capital,
labor and plants south. The Commercial
Gazette is one of the organs that told the
people in the last campaign that Oleve-
land e reelection and reduction OF the
tariff would ruin their prosperity, while
Harrison's election and continuance Of
the AZ per cent tariff meant plenty Of
work, high wages and good times for
everybody. Harrison has now been pres
ident only six weeks, yet there is depres~
sion in all our great manufacturing IN
dustries. There is no prospect-no pos.
sibility, indeed-of tariff reform for at
least five years to come, and yet the story
of strikes, lock-outs, reduced wages, half
time, etc., come from every quarter. An
explanation OF these phenomena from Mr..
Blaine or Mr. Harrison would be nightly
priced by The great army of wsge-earn-
ers, to whom these gentlemen made such
sweet talks last summer about the beau.
ties of protection.
