An Oregon Breathing Well.

The well is one and a quarter miles
east of Stanwood, on the high land, near
ly $50 feet above sea level. Its owner,
o. W. Coltom, began digging it last June,
but abandoned it various times because
Of gas or fredamp. He succeeded in
reaching an abundance of good water at
depth of ninety feet from the surface
last October, having passed through sue
cessive layers Of clay, sand and some
kind of stratified rock. About eighty
feet below the surface he found sprink-
ling of anthracite coal, and still farther
down large quantities of loose speci-
mems of volcanic stones of several kinds,
many of which have the appearance Of
having been melted and run together.
About the close of October Mr.. Coltom
noticed that the well was blowing out a
kind of gas with considerable force, and
at irregular periods of time, varying
from five days to sixteen hours duration.
It would reverse the operations and be-
gin to draw in the air with equal force,
the inhalations lasting about as long q
time as the exhalations. Shortly after
the gas disappeared, but the respiration
of air continued with increasing force,
until at the present time it has sufficient
force to drive large windmill. Not
long since Mr.. Coltom went down into
the we'll and discovered that the air was
being drawn in and blown out at point
fifteen feet from the bottom of the well.
1t is supposed that there must be large
cavern at distance from the well, and
the air comes through a small passage
leading from the cavern to the well. No
cavern or passage has yet been found,
as the well is walled up, and the air
comes through the rocks in the well.-

A lady who resides in the west end re-
, lates today the strange confession of a
millman. For some time past she had sus-
pected that the cream left at her house
was diluted. Although it had plenty of
foam on top it did not seem to be equal
in quality to good milk. She determined
to interrogate the milkman, and so she
watched for him. When he came she
informed him of her suspicion. At first
hefinsisted that the cream was as good as
any sold, but when she persisted in her
statement that she had drank country
milk that was far better he weakened
and said:
"Can you keep secret, mum? Well,
10 tell you the truth, mum, the cream
you got is not cream at all. The foam
that is on top is made from the white of
eggs, and is put there to make you be-
lieve you are getting the genuine article.
But you are right in suspecting that you
amt, mum. It's nothing but delusion
and maybe you might say shame
too. But l don't know. Most people
never find out the difference, and as
long as they don't know as how they are
being fooled, why, what's the oddsg"-

biblical DIseovsr:s. Of Great Tnss-sn.

@-AI-A-~s 0ta~S - - 1%N@~ AnANNNa1
A lecture Of the greatest interest, not
Bnly to orientahsts, but likewise to all
interested in Biblical research, has Just
been delivered at the Yerein Niederwald
Of Vienna by that most distinguished
orientialist and linguistic scholar, the
Rev. William Hechler. captain to the
British embassy.
Ever since his student days he has been
seeking for the key to harmonic the
dates Of the kings Of Judah and Israel
given in the Bible, and the dates of the
kings Of Babylon, Assyria, Egypt and
Persia. As he observed in the course Of
his lecture: whoever has carefully
studied the histories of the ancient EN-
pires must be struck with the wonder
fully truthlike appearance Of the chron-
illogical and syncronistic data. No his
torian has ever ventured to give such a
large number of dates as the Bible,
which are made to synchronize with the
dates of kings of other nations, thereby
enabling accurate control. Thus the
kings of Judah are made to synchronize
with the kings of Israel, and many of
Babylon, Assyria, Egypt and Persia"
At the last orientalists congress in
Vienna the learned gentleman presented
the first part of his researches, extending
over twenty years. No doubt his charts,
when published, will startle many pro-
fessor of theology all over the world
at least such as have taught their pupils
that it was impossible to put in order
and harmonize these confused dates.
Mr.. Hechler proves that they do har-
monize, and that in most wonderful
manner, but the key had to be sought
and found. He does not profess to have
united the Gordian knot and to have
disposed of every difficulty, but the re-
mafkably clear and ingenious way in
which he puts an end to Biblical dis
crepancies is convincing and conclusive.
The charts are so simple and comprehen-
sible that child may read them.-Vi-

Ehe Idea of Welding Wheels to the Track.

The Idea of Welding Wheels to the Track.
An invention is now undergoing inves-
tigation which promises the improve
ment of railway traffic. The invention
consists of small dynamo and an auxil-
iary engine placed upon the locomotive
in such a way as to be easily operated,
furnishing current of small force but
large quantity, which is made to pass
from one pole of the dynamo to one pair
of driving wheels, thence along the rail
to the other pair of driving wheels, thence
to the other pole Of the dynamo, thus
forming a travelling circuit, moving at
all times with the locomotive.
BY means of this current an incipient
weld is caused between the wheels and
rails at the point of contact, preventing
the slipping of the wheels. The work
ing model of the device shows an in
crease of 400 per cent. in the hauling
power of the locomotive. The model
without the application of the current
would not mount grade of Is per cent,
but when the current was applied it
mounted grade of 80 per cent. A loco
motive is now being equipped with the
invention to test it on the Baltimore and
| Ohio railway.-Exchange

An Important Decision.

The supreme court of Rhode Island
has just set aside will probated fifty
years ago. The late Joseph Greene, a
stanch Quaker, was greatly disturbed
during his latter years by members of his
family marrying without the pale of the
society, and attempted by his will to be-
stow his estate for the benefit of those
present whom he considered orthodox
Friends, or Wilberites, as distinguished
from other branches of the society. The
will was uncontested until abont two
years ago.
The property involved comprises about
1870 acres IN the center of jamestown, on
the island of Conanicut. The petitioner
contended that the application of the es-
tate rested upon the trustees determining
the true and actual religious belief of the
benefciaries While it is possible to
ascertain ones religious professions, the
petitioners claimed that it is not within
human power to ascertain belief. The
court declared the bequest void.-Ex.

The bible S. Our sohooln.

Men ask, Shall we teach the Bible in
weekday school? Why not lay the stress
on teaching religion, with or without the
Bible? Religion will still be in its eter-
nal youth when the Bible has fulfilled
its mighty Office and passed away from
that heaven where there is no temple.
Religion is not knowledge of certain
things; it is state of the heart in which
all knowledge should be received and
used. How can any good teacher help
but teach religion? tits coextensvie with
the universe. 1t is not mere ecclesias-
tical or academical tenets; it is not any
part OF life; it is only the whole science
and art of life animated and inspired by
universally pervasive and perfect phi
losophy, the very alphabet of all correct
teaching-an alphabet whose Alpha and
Omega are unselfshness.
But unselfshness is not self annihila-
ton, nor any effort after it. 1t is but
the subordination of self to its place in
the universal harmony. Its result is
what its motives must never be or the
result fails-an immeasurably greater
and better aggrandizement of self than
any self seeking can possibly attain.
True teaching, then, whether in the
Bible or not, can be only that sort which
moves the student to ask of every offered
acquisition, not How can this serve self?
but What self equipment will this add
for that blessed service of the universal
harmony, which by its nature tends to
make the whole universe myself, and
saves me from the folly and ruin of try
ing to make self my universe?-George
w. Cable in Ladies' Home journal.

A Strange Vault.

A strange discovery was made at San
Francisco the other day by the workmen
engaged in tearing down the old land
mark at the northwest corner of Mont
gomery and Commercial streets. While
removing the marble slabs which COW
cred the floor, a stairway was discovered
which led down to vault under the
building, the existence of which was un-
known. The vault extends the entire
length and breadth Of the superstruct-
ure. 1t is built of bricks placed length
ways, which were separated by pieces Of
slate, the whole being firmly cemented
into solid mass. The roof was arched
and constructed in the same manner
At one end of the vault was an apart
ment, built in an unusually solid man
ner, to which an entrance was effected
by door of iron quarter of an inch
thick and riveted with bolts.
A pioneer furnished the information
that the building, or at least the first
story, was erected in 1851, for the occu-
patton of August Belmont & Co.'S bank
ing house. The confagration of 1949
had swept every structure in the vicinity
out of existence, and when the building
was erected it was determined to make
| it fireproof. The basement was where
gold bullion and coin were stored, and it
was built to resist burglars and defy
fire. Even among the then residents of
the city the existence of the vault was
not generally known, and the method of
reaching it was secret confined only to
the banks employees and to the workmen
who constructed it.-San Francisco Let
