The Bowdoin college expedition has
discovered the wonderful falls on the
Grand river in Labrador of which such
extraordinary tales have been told, but
the exact location Of which has been
a mystery. The height of the falls
proves to have been greatly exaggera-

PARADISE FOR DARKlES.
Where Fruit Grows Out of the Rocks
 and Frost Is Unknown.


 One can easily imagine that in q coun- try like this, where fruit and vines grow out of rocks, where frost is uu- known and one may go barefootcd or bathe in the ocean the year round, the cOlored man finds himself in an earthly heaven, writes a Nassau correspondent of the Chicago Herald. An average negro family in Nassau pays dollar q month rent for one-room house, but what does that matter, since they live pretty much outdoors from New Years to New Years? A few pennies will buy enough corn hominy for meal, and sapedillGs, mangoeS, cocOanuts and pine apples grow in the yard without any cultivation.
 As rule the negro family does not know at supper where it's breakfast is coming from, but they do not worry over little thing like that. If nothing else turns up they can go down to the Earbor and catch few fish or send one of the small boys down to the bot tom of the water for conk. The chil- dren don't need shoes and clothing, CX- ccptiug only Sunday outfits is very snall matter for either adults or chil- dren.
 Sunday is the great day. No matter how poor the family, or how few the days work had during the week at fifty cents the day, Sabbath morning every colored nan, woman and child conc out with a spicli and span gown and the adults torture their big, swollen feet, with spreading toes and long, tlaring heels, by cncasing them in cow hide shoes. The average cOl0rcd per son is proud, even if poor. Those who live in the suburbs and have to come some distance to church walk the two or. three or four miles to the outskirts, oi the town carrying their shoes in their hands, and when they reach tine city they sit down and put on their shoes and stockings, hire a carriage at twelve and half cents per passenger and ride into town in good style. as happy as mortals are permitted to be in this vale of corns and corruption.
 Another thing which contributes to the happiness of the colorcd population on Sunday is the fact that some years ago they made a stand for their rirhts. and had the doors of all the churches thrown open to them. There is met a church in the Bahama islands wth,ut l share of colorcd communicates. Even at the very high and aristocratjy cathedral of the Church of Enrland, about Onc-third of the congregation is col0rcd, and three or four larl-a black

from two Greek ones-pareia, cheek or cheek piece of helmet; and sauros, lizard. The skeleton forming the sub icct of our illustration, was found by Prof. Seeley on the 18th of August. 1889, at Bad, near Tamboer, in the Pareia- saurus beds of the Karoo, Cape Colony, and he proceeded to have it carefully quarried out and shipped to England. The fossil was chiseled from the matrix by Ricard Hall, in the workshops of the geological department of the Brit ish museum (natural history, and it is due to the skillful way in which this very difficult work has been done that the nation is now in possession of so perfect a fossil of this huge reptile which belonged to an order that flour ished and died in the triassic period of the worlds formation, and whose size in life must have been upwards of ten feet in length.

The mPig of the Rnshes.

In Ireland the lizard is called "aire Iuichair," which, literally translated, means "the pig of the rushes." It is held in great esteem for it's curative powers. When caught the person who Is anxious to receive the curative power takes the aire luichair in his hand and hcIiS the creature all overhead, feet, belly, legs, sides and tail; and the tongue of the person who thus liclis the alre luichair is said to ever afterwards possess the power of taking the pain and sting out of a burn. The aire imchair crawling across the throat of one suffering with quinsy or the hands or person who has licked or even re- gently handled one of the little crea- lures is thought to be a sovereign rem cay for that disease. There is also a prevailing idea that the aire luichair is a'Ways on the watch to crawl down the throat of any person who happens to tau asleep opt of doors. ,---- --.-----.

A SCIENTIFIC TREASURE.
Fossil Skeleton of the Anomodont Reptile
 Pareiasaurus Bainii.

Among the recent illustrations in Black and White is one which is the re- production of a photograph of the fos- silizcd skeleton of the Pareiasaurus Bainii, which Prof. Sceley, r. R. S, late ly exhibited at conversations of the Royal Society. Prof. Seeley in 1889 un- der took on behalf of the society an in- investigation of the Permian, or Trias Reptilia in European Russia and the Cape Colony. As one of the results of his labors the Natural History museum will now have its valuable collection enriched by the addition of nearly perfect skeleton of the gigantic lizard which was first brought to the notice of the world by Mir. A. G. Bain in 1858. In that year Mir. Bain, who was con structing the Queens road at the Cape, stated in letter which he wrote at the time, that while encamped on the Blanliwater river in the work of carry ing on the road through the forest of the Winterberg, he discovered during some blasting operations which were necessary, the skull of a huge animal with tifty-siX fluted. or scrrated teeth. This skull was found in the Beaufort beds of the Karoo series, which, it is said, are equivalent in time to the "Trias," or "Lower Lias" of Europe. An extremely interesting description which illustrates the wonders to bt dis covered in and around this part of the world, is also given by Mir. Bain, who states that in the same formation which inclGded remains of Pareiasaurus whole forests of calcified trees of large size are found in the neighborhood of Sunday and Bushman's rivers in a most perfect state of preservation imbcddcd horizontally in the rock. Ferno zamias and fragments of wood in a ngnitic state occur mixed up with fragments of gypsum and reptilian bones, together
 with marine eXuvi@, Trigonia, Ammo mites, and various other molluscs." Prof. Owen, on examination of the skull, gave it the distinguishing name of Par eiasaurus, which is word derived

 When the car is closed the seats are reversed, the solid backs being out ward and leaving a space in the center as wide as the ordinary street car. A window is pulled down from the top, making it a perfectly closed vehicle.

When Do Frnlts Grow?

A German man of science Or. Krauss of Halle) has been making some studies among fruit trees. He says that they sleep during the day and do their grow ing by night. The fruit of the cherry, for an example, increased nine times as fast in size during the night as .n the day. Apples, however, are not quite so lazy during the day, for their rate of growth was found to be so per cent. during the night and 2Oper cent. by day; that is to say, they grow four times as much by night as by day.

The sargossa ses.

The Sargossa sea is region in the At
lantic, about midway between southern
Europe and America, extending from 81
to % degs. north latitude and between
90 and 45 degs. west longitude. It de-
rived its name from Portuguese word
signifying grape, and was so called be-
cause the seaweeds characteristic of the
region bear on their branches small air
cells. which in shape are not unlike the
grape clusters. The weeds themselves
are among the most peculiar of vegetable
productions, since they have no roots,
nor any signs of fructifcation, and are
propagated by division. They float in
the water, sometimes in dense masses ex-
tending for miles.
This portion of the Atlantic is great
eddy, little affected by the currents
which surround it on every side, and the
stiffness of the water, it is supposed, has
contributed to the development of the
weeds in the vast quantities in which
they are found. The floating masses
were noticed by Columbus and his men,
to whom they were a source of uneasi-
ness, as the sailors supposed they indi-
Gated shallow water. Detached masses
of the weed are often seen in the Gulf
stream, and the long, yellow lines of
floating weed are sure indication of its
close proximity. Louis Globe-Demo-
