1t is much weaker to-day than it was a
year ago, but it is. stronger now than 1t
will ever be again in the South. 1t is
following in the footsteps of "the Grange"
and "the Wheel" which, like the Alli-

seized upon them to obtain office rather
than to build up the real interest of the
farmer.-Augnst0 Chronicle.
1t is reported that syndicate of
Baltimore and Newark, n. j., capitalists
have bought up at forced sale the Dis,
NAL Swamp Canal for $4,000. This canal
connects the swamp with the Elizabeth

in North Carolina. 1t was projected by

owners propose to develop the timber
lands along the canal and improve the
waterway.
= The Falkland Islands produce no
trees, but they do produce wood in a
very remarkable shape. You will see,
scattered hereiand there, singular blocks
Of what looks like weatherbeaten, messy
gray stones of various sizes. But If you
attompt to roll over one of the rounded
powders you will find yourself unable to
accomplish it. In fact, the stone is tied
down to the ground-tied down by the
roots or in other words, it IS not stone,
but a block Of living wood.
Detective Bailey, of Chicago, went to
tho Palmer House to arrest man regis
tered there as D. G.. Moore, whom he had
reason to think was L. G. Dumas, wanted
in Boston for forgery. The young man
took his arrest very coolly, asserting that
his name was not Dumas but Moore, and
that he would show him papers to prove
it. The detective was obliging, and upon
reaching the room the young man showed
him papers lying in the bottom
of large sample trunk. Bailey stopped
over to pick them up when his prisoner
seized him by the heels, dumped him into
the trunk, slammed tho lid, locked the
door of the room and made bis escape.
1t was fifteen minutes before the detect
| i've was released, and he is now hunting
for his man with small chance Of finding
him.
= Ono of tho most astonishing ofall the
promises of electricity is now being dis
cussed by the scientific journals, says the
Boston Journal. tits that ofextractinggo gold
from the sea. II has long been known tc
scientists that every ton of sea water con.
tains half grain Of gold and grain and
q half of silver. But science has always
found it impossible to devise any practi'
cal method of gaining possession Of these
precious bits Of metal. But now comes
electricity with it's marvellous power O.
precipitation. 1t is proposed to stretch {
long series Of iron plates under the water
and by running electric currents through
these plates to precipitate the gold upor
them. 1t is estimated that at the rate O
half grain Of gold and grain and hal
of silver to each ton of sea water the en-
tire seas and oceans of the world contain
q, ,595, ,0OO 900, 900 tons of gold and "a, 1885,
coo, 900, 900 tons Of silver. Now if these
metals can be liberated by electricity and
prccipitated, what revolution it woulc
make in the worlds production. What
a revolution all this might make in the
worlds currency basis does not concern
science. Nevertheless, this new appli-
cation of electricity is decidedly interest
ing as showing how discoveries in sci
ence may operate ct any time to change
the whole face of things in social and
| economic affairs.
