indicate that the majority of them

TERRIBLE RESULT OF A FIRE.

QUEBEC, Feb IA sad story has just
reached here from the little village OF st.
Colbert, in the township of Fleuriault,
Rimouski county. according to the details
of which Farmer Bouchard, near that
place. has lost his three children, his wife
is so severely burned that her life is de-
SPARED OF, and he himself is so badly in
jured and frozen that he will probably be
a cripple all his life. On Monday night
last there was a wedding at the
house of Pierre Guilbauit, mile
from Bouchard's house and Bouchard,
his wife and eldest daughter, Julie at
tended the consequent festivities. 1t was
bitter cold night and showing heavily.
The three returned home at midnight.
Bouchar3's other two children, Victor,
aged Z, and Louise, aged 10, had gone to
bed early and let the fire go out. A new
one was built and after the party had be-
come warm they went to bed. Bouchard
and his wife occupied a room partltloned
off from the kitchen in which the fire was
burning. Julie slept in the upper story
with her brother and sister, which was
reached by ladder leading up from along.
side the fireplace.
Bouchard was awakened an hour after
going to bed by toe blazing bedclothes.
He sprang out of bed only to find himself
surrounded by fire. He and his wife at
tempted to reach the kitchen, but the en-
tire floor was ablaze, the room was full Of
smoke and egreSs in that direction was
impossible. Recourse was then had to the
small window which had been nailed up
from the outside for the winter. After
fully three minutes struggle Bouch-
ard managed TO force the sash,
and, getting out himself, helped
his wife out. She had wrapped blan-
ket round her, and it had taken fire, so

rushed to the front of the house to see
about the children. There was window
to the upper story, but no one was at it.
Bouchard seized short ladder, placed it
against the already blazing walls and
mounting to the window, jumped in, CROP
ing about for the children. He found
Louise lying close to the window, appar-
turned to the window, nearly sutf coated
himsalf and got out upon the ladder just
as it, too blazed up, catching fire from the
house.
The pain of the burns was so intense
that he got back into the sill with Louise
in his arms, thought second and then
threw her into the snow in front OF the
house. AS he did so the upper floor burst
into flames. He could see the insensible
forms of Julie and Victor stretched upon
the floor, the boards burning beneath
them. He could do nothing without rush
ing into the flames. and to do so was GER
tain death, and, as the flames were rapidly
eYeloping him, he jumped.
4 few minutes later a number of vii
layers, attracted by the flames, ran up,
but only in time to see the roof fall in. A
search discovered Mrs. Bonchard lying
where her husband had thrown her, her
lower limbs badly burned and frozen.
Louise was dead when found. Bouchard
himself broke leg and was almost as
badly burned and frozen as his wife. The
latter can hardly survive her injuries.
She is about to become mother The
villagers are caring for the couple and do
ing all that can be done to alleviate their
sufferings.

SCIENCE NOTES.

TIE northern limits of the culture Of the
silk-worm are being steadily extended. Ex-
periments made last summer at Astrakhan
showed that 1t could easily be carried on at
the mouth of the Volga. Notwithstanding
the age Of the mulberry trees which were
planted at Astrakhan thirty five years since,
the results Of the experiments proved salts
factory, and 10000 cccoons were received
this year.
AN English electrician has invented O
material which he calls alterion, for the
prevention Of corrosion in boilers. Tho in
terror is coated with this, and currents OF
electricity are passed through the boiler,
and from time to time reversed. The for
nation Of the scale is prevented by layer
Of hydrogen gas, which is deposited upon
the inner surface of tho boiler. The re-
pure water, thin layer of pure w1ter being
thus kept all around the boiler.
TIE experiments Of Standardization re-
Gently tried in Jacksonville have proved
that the steaning process is thoroughly
eflcacious in destroying microbes in gen
eral, and also the yellow fever microbes.
Active germs placed by DR.. Gibier IN gel

unmistakable life and activity. Microbes
subjected to the steaming process, though
for only ten minutes, and under very i'm
perfect conditions, were afterwards sub
jected to the same cultivation, but remained
entirely inert
SEVERAL cases Of electric prostratioD are
reported from Creusot, France. 1t affects
workers under electric light The light ex-
ceeds one hundred thousand candle power,
and it appears that it is this excess of light,
not the heat. which produces the nervous
symptoms. A very painful sensation in the
throat, face and temples Is first noticed,
then the skin becomes coppery-rcd, and
irritation Is felt about the eyes; much
lachrymation ensues, and these symptoms
then disappear. whilst tho skin peels OF in
FIVE days. The effects are comparable to
those produced by walking over fresh
snow in tho sunlight, and may be regarded
as a sort Of ssun-burning."
An Improvement has been introduced In
the manufacture OF bat.cry-iars from wood
pulp which considerably increases their
power Of resisting the battery solutions
while removing all danger from tho leakage
which has heretofore sometimes been the
result of imperfect treatment Those jars
are made Of ground wood in the same man
ner as the wellknown pals and similar
utensils, but after having been formed and
dried are treated by immersion in conpo-
sition which penetrates the pulp and rem
ders tho jar acid-proof. 1t has been found
difficult in the past TO insure in the case OF
every jar thorough penetration OF each
fiber by the protecting compound owing to
the considerable amount Of air which shc
fibers themselves and the spaces between
them contain. This difficulty has low been
happily surmounted by the ingenious dc
vice of treating the jars in vacuum, where
by the cir is removed, and then while the
jars are still submerged, admitting air On
top Of the fluid used for treating. The air
pressure thus forces the compound into
every portion Of the material forming the
jar, and renders certain the protection CT

barrels averaging 15,0S8 barrels daily.
against 79, 800 barrels the previous week
and 1890 barrels tor the CORE
spending time in 1853. The increase
was largely due to $500 barrel
mill being placed in the operative list with
steam power, while several other mills OF
the same class added to their product
some, the gain in the aggregate being
quite material. There were twelve mills
in operation today, and as they are enjoy
ing pretty fair water power, the weeks
output gives promise Of equalling that
of week ago. They were making at the
rate of 1900 barrels daily. but

siderable extent, and up to last evening
there had been pretty heavy sales. These
sales are estimated at 100000 to 154, 600

patents for the eastern trade. To meet the
higher cost of wheat, flour prices were adj
vanced 10c per barrel Monday night and 25c

tations millers claim that they are selling
-four at 2Oc under cost with wheat as at
present. Since the last advance the sales
have not been large, and, as wheat was
easier today, the demand may fall off,
though a firm wheat market would doubt
less cause considerable of a movement.
There was probably more orders booked
before the 16c rise than afterwards. One
firm reports sales of over 60, 900 barrels in
the past ten days. AS a result of
the improved demand, some parties
here are withdrawing -four they
have in store. The stock at Duluth
on Saturday was reported at $4,000
barrels, There is none at all at Washburn
or Gladstone. Millers are receiving more
cables of rather stronger tone, but the
foreign trade is very small. The direct ex-
ports last week were 1880 barrels against
$500 barrels the preceding week. Quota

To COUNTERPART RECIPROCITY.

OTTAWA, Feb. lit is learned on the
best of authority that the dominion gov
eminent has resolved upon a novel scheme
to counteract the effect of the growth of
the unrestricted reciprocity movement in
Canada. Sir John Macdonald, it is be-
lieYed, will seek 10 secure the adoption
of joint memorial from the senate
and commons TO her majesty TO send
a member of the royal family TO Canada
next summer. The visit ii is expected will
create such a wave of popular enthusiasm
as will put damper upon any scheme 10
bring about the absorption of the dominion
by the United States. The Duke of Edin-
burgh. son of her majesty, is suggested
as likely visitor, but alleged correspond
ence with the imperial authorities seems 10
show that the Prince OF Wales favors the
sending of HE eldest SON The present heir
apparent is said to have visited Canada
under similar circumstances in 1861 and
his triumphal tour of Canada is regarded
by the government as likely TO have been
no heartier than the proposed reception TO
the next royal visitor.
