Beautiful Oklahoma.

Oklahoma has been placed under regular
form of government. and good land titles
are thereby assured. The Iowa reserva-
ton, joining it on the east. will shortly be
opened for settlement. This will bring
about an increased immigration. Guthrie

in the new Territory, are reached only via
Santa Fee Route. Norman, Edmond, Alfred

Preservation of Harness.

The best preventative of harness is
occasional washing with warm water and
saturation with some oily substance, by
which the leather is preserved from the
alternating damp and dryness and from
the destructive effects of the prevalent
impure air of the stables. The harness
should be taken apart and wiped with a
sponge moistened. with warm water and
CASTLE soap. While damp it is then
thoroughly dressed with a mixture of
two parts of tallow and one part of castor
oil, mixed when melted; to this is added
sufficient lamp-black to restore the color
to the leather. This is thoroughly rubbed
into the harness with bunch of oakum
or brush. The surplus is then removed
by means Of rubbing with cloth. FL
nally castor oil with small quantity of
carbolic acid, to give it perceptible
odor, is rubbed into the leather as long
as it will be absorbed. This preserves
the harness from rats and mice, which
are apt to gnaw it where it has been
moistened by the perspiration of the
horses. 1t is a wise thing to have a close
closet in some convenient place to hang
the harness in.-[New York Times.

Electricity in Insects.

NJ. Nicolas Wagner, by series of ex-
periments displayed before the Academy
of Sciences, about the year 1865, showed
that electricity produced variation in the
color of butterflies. His experiments
were performed on VdneSSd urticd. He
found that electric currents changed reds
into orange, and blacks into reds, and
with a constant battery, weak current
produced spots varying in shape with the
strength of the current. He further
demonstrated that the colors naturally
existing in the butterfy's wings were due
to currents in that organ, the most pow
erful of which passes from the attachment
of the wing outward along the middle
nervure to the outer edge. The follow
ing are the conclusions he arrived at: 1.
The existence of fixed electric currents
in the wings of insects. The possibility
by means of electric currents to provoke
change in the shade and disposition of
the coloring matter. And the possibility,
by means of these currents. to produce
kind of atrophy and to change the Shape
of the wings IScience Gossip.

Cast Iron Bricks.

What are termed hollow cast iron
bricks form the subject of a recent Ger
man patent described in the technical
journals, the article being the invention
of an Erfurt mechanic. As the name in
dicates, they are made of regular brick
form and size, the walls being 0.12
inches thick, but no mortar or other
binding material is intended to enter in
to their. use, the method of fastening
adopted being as follows: The upper
and lower sides of the bricks are pro-
vided with grooves and protecting ribs,
which fit into one another easily and per-
fectly, 50 as to make uniform and com
plete union or combination.
There are in addition two large circu-
lar openings in the upper side of each
brick, arranged to receive suitably
formed projections on the lower side of
the brick above, one of these projections
being also hooked shape, thus securing a
more secure hold; and in order that the
joints be made and remain air and water
tight, fluid is applied to the surface of
the bricks with brush. The non-con-
Quoting air spaces in the bricks, and the
ease with which they may be put to-
gether and taken apart without injunng
them, are cited as special advantages in
their favor as a substitute for ordinary
bricks and brick construction.-C Chicago

The Tomb of Eve.

At Jiddah, the seaport Of Mecca, there
is temple with palm growing out OF
the solid stone roof, which the Arabs
assert marks the last resting place of our
common mother. Ewes tomb, in an in
closure within the temple, surrounded by
high white walls, is the shrine of thou
sands of devoted Ishmaelites, who make
a pilgrimage to the spot once every seven
years. According to the Arabian le-
Rends, on the anniversary Of the death
of Abel, said to be June 3, the doors OF
the temple which forms a canopy over
this supposed tomb of the first woman
remain open all night, in spite of the
keepers efforts to close them, and ter
rible cries of anguish are said to issue
from them, as if the memory of the first
tragedy still haunted the remains which
are superstitiously believed to be depos-
tied there. The Arabian tradition has
it that Eve was over two hundred feet
tall. which comedies, somewhat remark
ably. with an account of the tenants OF
the Garden of Eden written by member
of the French Academy of Sciences, few
wears ago, who also estimated the first
pair 70 have been over two hundred feet

Using Cats as Clocks.

Every one knows that cats can see in
the dark, and the reason they can do so is
because of the peculiar construction of
their eyes. You may have noticed that
in moderate light the pupil or black
part of pussy's eye is small and of an oval
shape, while in full glare of light it be-
comes narrow. Now, in the dark it ex-
pands to circle and nearly fills the sur
face of the eyeball. This peculiarly Of
the cats eyes is turned to account in a
curious manner by the Chinese. The
Able Hue relates that when he was trav-
cling in China he asked his attendant
what time it was. The man went over
to a cat that was quietly basking in the
sun, and examining its eyes told the
Able that ii was about two hours after
noon, and on being questioned how he
knew that, he explained that the pupils
of cats eyes were largest in The morn
ing and that they gradually grew smaller
as the light increased, till they reached
their minimum at noon; that then they
began to widen again, till at night they
once more became large. The good
Able "; filed with admiration for the
ingenuity of people who could use cats
as clocks. But it must be admitted that
this way of telling the time of day is
rather a loose one and could only be
trusted in very clear and serene weather,
for temporary gloom or the darkness Of a
storm would sadly derange your four
footed clock and put it all wrong.

The Worlds Diamonds.

The worlds stock of diamonds has in
