AN ITALIANS THEORY.
Tho Effects of Electricity and OEono OF
Cows MIX.

The Effects Of Electricity and Ozone ON
Cows MIX.
1t Is we'll known that during thunder
storms milk tends to grow acid. An
Italian, Prof. g. Tolomei, has lately
tried to throw some light on the nature
OF this action. lie experimental with
electricity on fresh milk in three diff
ferent ways-first, by passing the dis
charge OF Holtz machine between two
balls OF platinum inserted nearly two
inches apart In a bottle containing milk;
second, by sending a battery current
between two strips OF platinum at
the bottom OF U tube holding
milk; and, third, by subjecting milk
to test tube to tho action OF
strong battery current through
silk-covcred copper wire wound spirally
round the tube. In each case the acidu-
lation was delayed, not hastened. Three
equal portions Of milk from the same
milking, thus treated, began to grow
acid on the seventh, the ninth, and the
sixth day respectively; while milk not
treated with electricity was manifestly
acid on the third day. The electrified
milk (unliko milk that has been heated
TO q high temperature, thon cooled),
coagulates naturally, or by action OF
rennet, just like ordinary milk. Hav-
ing thus seen that electricity could not
be the direct cause OF a:idiflcation OF
milk, the professor next tried the effect OF
ozone, and found 1t distinctly acidifying.
In one case the surfac ce OF a quantity OF
milk was brought close under the two
balls OF Holtz machine, and the milk
soon became acid in consequence, the
sooner II the discharge was silent mot
explosive). in which case more ozone
formed. In another case ozonized oxy-
gen was made to bubble up through a
quantity OF milk, which in few hours
was completely acid, and soon coagulat-
ed spontaneously. Prot. Tolomei is OF
opinion that oxygen probably also
promotes Tactic fermentation Ia point
which has been disputed). II milk
keeps longer in wide, shallow vessels,
that is probably due, he thinks, to the
cooling produced by evaporation, which
is favored by a wide, open surface. -

CHINESE EVOLUTION.

A Theory More Reasonable Than the Ideas
Advanced bv Some Dar rwininns.
The Chinese have as odd ideas about
the earth and the origin OF man as they
have about other things with which
they as well as ourselves, are better
acquainted. According to their way Of
reckoning, the rocks OF the earth are
the bones Of the Divine body. the soil
is the flesh, the metals the nerves and
the veins The tide, wind, rain, clouds,
as we'll as frost and snow, are caused by
the respirations, pulsations and exhala-
tions OF this seeming inanimate body.
Originally the mountains roso TO the
skies, and the seas covered the mount
aims to their tops At that time there
was no life in the divine body except
the divine life Then the waters sub
sided; small herbs grew, and, in the
lapse OF cycles, developed into shrubs
and trees.
As tho body Of man, unwashed for
years. breeds vcrmin, so the mountains,
unlavod by the seas, bred worms and
insects, greater creatures developing
out OF lesser. Beotles In the course OF
ages becamc turtles, earth sects became
birds. ergets becoming cranes, etc
Then wildcats became tigers, the man
tbs was by degrees tran formed into An
ape, and some OF the apes became hair
less A hairless ape accidentally made
a fire by striking a. crystal against a
flint With the fire thus obtained they
cooked food; eating cooked victuals
made them largo, strong AMI knowing.
With all its faults tho above is even
moro reasonable than many OF the ideas
advanced by tho Darwinian evolution.

WORKING FOR THE NICKEL.
The Joint Million-DoiIar Resolution he
fore the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Sept. a3.-[Special] -
In the Senate to-day the House joint
resolution appropriating one million
dollars for the purchase of nickel for
naval purposes was laid before the
Senate. Mr. Cameron offered an amend
ment providing that such nickel shall
be equitably distributed among contrac-
tors of nickel-steel armor plating
MIR. Hale said that there had never
been SO complete and demonstrating Il
test OF tho value of IN anna lgamation of
! nickel with steel for steel plates for
vessels and ordnance as the recent one
ut Annapolis. The result OF that cX-
pertinent was so remarkable that the
Secretary of tho Navy deemed it essen
tial that he should, while the oppor-
tunlty offered. secure control of nickel
enough To make an alloy for plates now
being formed. The committee on naval
affairs had had Il full hearing, at which
the results of the test were submitted:
and he had been unanimously author
lzcd to report the joint resolution. The
House of Representatives had passed it;
and 1t was very desirable that tho
Senate should pass ii to-day.
In the course of debate it was OK
planned that it was contemplated that
the Navy Department should own and
control the use of nickel purchased
under this joint resolutions; that the
matter had been amicably arranged
with the contractors for furnishing ar
NOR plate; that the principal source of
the supply of nickel is New Caledonia
and Canada: that the Canada mine is
owned by Il citizen of this country, and
that there were reasons which it was
not advisable to make public for acting
promptly.
MIR. German, while approving of the
oject of the proposed purchase, raised
an objection against bringing in the
proposition at this late hour of the scs-
sion, and he suggested n number of
troubles that may arise in the future
growing out of changes in the methods
OF constructing vessels which will re-
suit from carrying it into effect. Messrs.
iawley, Plumb and Gray also came into
discussion.
Finally Mr.. Hale consented to let tho
joint resolution go over till tomorrow,
saying that he would call it up i'm
mediately after the routine morning
business. Consideration of the calendar
was resumed. The House bill to author
izc the constructio of bridge across
the Altamaha river was passed; also the
House bill granting leaves of absence to
the clerks and employees in the frs /
and second class postoliiccs. Some
time was spent in discussing the land
court bill and the bill to amend i'm
migration laws, but neither was passed
After brief executive session the
Senate adjourned.

A SCANDAL OUT.
Two Well-Known RoanoIsers Mixed In an
IInbroglio.

Two Well-Known ROanokers Mixed In an
Inbroglio.
One mans indiscretion and another's
foolish tongue brought q serious scandal
in the mayors court yesterday afternoon.
Some two months ago Mr.. j. Is. O'Meara,
with his wife, boarded at the house of a
wcll-known lady. While there he claims
to have discovered a state Of things
which compelled him to leave the house.
According to Mr.. O'Meara, Mr.. Keely,
foreman of one of the divisions of, the
Machine Works, was implicated Mr..
O'Meara left the house, notifying the
lady why he left.
He presumably communicated the
reason to others, and it finally became Il
matter Of town talk. a mutual friend
of the two men made an effort to have
the report corrected, or the matter ar
ranged in some way, and they met on
the night OF September Is.
keely went prepared with loaded
revolver and lie hill'' drawn up. and
forced O'Aieara to sign it under protest.
OMeara was also armed, but did not
draw his weapon, as kcely had evidently
got the drop" on him.
OMeara thought that he had been
badly treated, and four days ago de-
nanded the return OF the paper. 1t was
returned yesterday, but when he learned
that photographs of the paper had been
made, the matter was put in the hands
OF his counsel. The papers and photo
graphs were then all given up by some
of the party, but O'Meara was mad and
Keely was arraigned before Mayor
Evans charged with an assault on
OMeara.
lie pleaded guilty, and did not deny
having forced O'Meara to sign the
papers. When asked if he would have
killed O'Meara had he refused to sign
the paper, he declined to answer. lie
was fined SO and required to give
peace bond of 1000, which was given.
