Professor is just rising into prominence
as an instructor OF tsachers and will sool
take rank Among the best in the state.
The discussions on school management
were led by The Superintendent. Things
good, and things bad, seen in making off,
eial visits supplied the topics Tor discus
sion, which were entered into by the
whole class with considerable . enthusiasm.
An interesting feature Of this part OF the
work was he professional question box.
through which any teacher could get An
opportunity TO either propound or discuss
professional questions and none others.

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1891-03-05

Il sandy waste, was formed like other
tropical regions. Whether this were true
or not, it is not impossible that the d2s-
ert again may blossom like the rose,
for the French, who have an interest in
the country, and are credited with a
desire to own it all, have a project for
making an inland sea in the western
part of the desert. 1t appears from sur
veys made that about 10000 square
miles, not far from the coast, are below
the level of the shore, and a canal cut
through the coast hill would flood this
portion of the desert and might produce
a change in its climate. This, however,
is of piece with the scheme for a trans
Saharan railroad from Fc2zan and the
GASES to TimbuctOo and Bornco. This is
a day of great projects, and whether
such giant undertakings will ever be
realized is impossible to predict; but
even should the canal be dug and that
portion of the Sahara flooded with water,
there is no reason to suppose I'll at any
very material change in the climate will
result, save in the immediate vicinity.
Far more reliance can be placed in the
artesian wells, for wherever these have
been sunk excellent water is found at a
dcpth of 200 to 400 feet, and with good
water an inland sea is by no means u
necessity.

NEW DYNAMITE GUN.
Lieutenant Graydon's Invention - Most
Powerful Instrument of destruction.

Lieutenant Graydon's Invention Most
Powerful Instrument of destruction.
The Graydon dynamite gun is q.
wonderful engine of warfare The gun
will project 800 pounds of dynamite
three miles in thirty seconds. The ex-
plosive contents are made up for
greater safety in tiny waxen pellets
and lodged in shell, the true fight
of which is secured by tapering tele-
scopic tail, and the gun is to be dis
charged by the expansion of condensed
air at a pressure of 5000 pounds per
square inch, the impulse of which is a
safer propelling energy than the igni-
ton of powder, because it does not
operate SO suddenly as to cause a
danger of the premature explo ,ion of
the missile. 1.-THE use Of such terri
bic weapon as a heavy dynamit sehell
has been the subject of much fearsome
speculation, says Mr.. Graydon,
States navy. "The noise of the dis
charge being small the projectile might
be dropped into fort or on to ship
without giving the basieyed any init
nation of the quarter from which the
attack came. The conclusion when
the dynamite exploded would in all
probability DO violent enough to put a
large garrison hors de combat, even if
they were not wounded by debris; and,
truly aimed, a single shell would de-
stroy an ironclad. The barrel, or pneu-
matte tube, of the gun is of Whitworth
forged steel, and weighs about eleven
tons. 1t is supported at the breech
end on fixed trunnions fifteen inches in
diameter, which arc followed for the
passage of compressed air. Toward
the muzzle it is carried on movable
trunnions engaged with two forged
steel arms or levers. These levers
have sliding fulcrums and are actuated
by hydraulic plunger, for the pur-
pose of elevnting or depressing the
gun. The breech is closed by means

out these patient beasts it is impossible
to traverse some parts of the Sahara at
all, the wells occasionally being as much
as ten days apart. An idea of the I'M
pleasantneSs of the journey may be
formed flom the fact that it takes a
caravan forty days from Cairo to Fezzan,
and nearly thirty more to the fertile re-
gions south of the desert.
The productions Of the Sahara are
limited Camels and domestic animals
are reared by the MOors and Arabs but
aside from these there are only three
articles Of export-salt, gum-arabic and
ostrich feathers. Salt is found III many
places. and is generally taken by the
caravans going south, for the Soudan
FRO iuccs no salt, and enormous profits
arc made by its purchase in the GASES OF
the Sahara AMI sale along the Niger.
The principal articles conveye south by
the caravans arc European cotton goods,
guns, ammunition and liquors Much
of the gum arabic used in Europe and
America is produced in the Sa lara, for
in the southwestern district are dense
groves OF acacias, and the product OF
their branches is gathered by the Moors
and sold to the French in st. Louis on
the Senegal Ostriches abound in most
parts of the d 'sert though what they
live on is problem, They are hunted
both for their feathers and flesh, though
only half-starved Moor could tolerate
the tough, fbrous meat of this able
bodied bird Besides oStrichcs, however,
there are very few animals in the desert
most of the wells and springs beng
monopolized by h man beings.
1t is n remarka lie fact, however,
that there are indications OF a FORMER
abundant population in the sahara ana

OstricheS In America.

There are certain old traditions about
the ostrich which, l have been told by
the owner Of O Cal fornia ranch, are
fallaciOus. He says the ostrich does
not bury his head in the sand and i'm
agine he is unob served by his enemies.
On the contrary, he is Il very pugna
cious bird and always ready for fight.
Nor does the female ostrich lay her
eggs in the sand for the sun to hatch
them. To do them justice, they are
quite domestic, and deserve o better
reputation Nor is the ostrich ever
used for riding, as he has an excep-
tionally weak back; any person might
break it with blow from OH ordinary
cane.
His strength lies in his great breast
and his feet. He has one great claw
and a very small one, aud with terri
bic precision he can bring down the
large claw with cruel 10 ce that will
tear open anything not made of sheet
iron. Savage birds at best. they are
dangerously so during br' edirg time.
The twenty bi ds brought to our
California ranch trusted to their in
sti CT, and laid their eggs during the
California winter, W hich correspondent
to thei summer south of the equator.
It being the raj ~ season, their nests
were TILED with water and the eggs
wee chilled; so the first season of
their America so;ourn was failure.
1ha ostrich makes it's nest by rolling
in the sand and scooping out hole
some six feet in diameter, and, except
ing an Incubator house, the California
ranch requi es no building for the use
of the Iii d !, though he land is di ided
off into pens fenced in each about al
acre in extent, for the use of the b eed
ing birds. every pair occupying one
such inclosure.

over the ranch: il e. embles our clover
