The principal pavements made in Pal
estine are IN Jerusalem, and it is only
within recent years they have been con-
structed in accordance with anything
like modern requirements. The superior
and massive Roman pavements. over
2.000 years old and still in fair preserva-
ton, are here not taken into considera-
ton. The material for streets is stone,
cut about the size and shape of ordinary
bricks or little larger. This is laid in
sand. the long and narrow side up The
stone used is the well known Jerusalem
marble. The cost varies from one to
two dollars per square yard The foun-
dation is almost invariably the rubbish

HOW the Drumfish Dcums

At meeting of the Berlin Physiolog-
ical society Professor Moebius described
most peculiar specimen of the fnny
tribe-Baliste aculeatus-the drumfsh.
They are found only in the waters of the
harbor of Mauritics, and when caught
and held in the hand they emit most
stirling" noise-a sound resembling
that produced by tapping the head Of a
tenor drum. A careful examination Of
this strange creature fails to reveal any
movement Of the mouth, the only mo-
ton observable being just behind the
gill slit, where continuous vibration of
the skin may be seen. The portion Of
the skin Which yibrates stretches from
the clavicle to the bronchial arch. This
is provided with four large bony plates
and lies just over the air or ''swim blad-
der"
Behind the clavicle is a curiousS
shaped long bone, which is attached by
the middle TO the clavic muscle in such
a manner as to form lever with two
arms. The long arm of this horny lever
is imbedded in the ventral trunk mus
Giles and is capable of easy movement to
and fro. The short arm slides during
this movement over the rough inner
side Of the clavicle, which gives rise to
a cracking noise which can be plainly
heard at distance Of twenty feet.-St.
Louis Republic.

THE TRANSPORT OF AMMONIA.

1t Is Often Carried on the Upper Decks
of Steamships to Keep It Cool.
Ammonia has been carried in con-
siderable quantities on the upper decks
Of steamships, but in many vessels the
bottles, carboys, or tins are slowed in the
between decks. In fact, they are some
times slowed in vacant cabins of cargo
vessels. The explosion of one Of these
receptacles awakened attention to the
placing of such substances dangerously
near heat. The master of the vessel on
whose ship the explosion happened I'M
screwed the tops of all those unchanged,
and thus allowed the gas to blow off.
Restrictions on carriage of dangerous
goods were imposed under the merchant
shipping act, 1878, section % Of which
provides that if any person sends or at
tempts to send by, or, not being the mas
ter or owner of the vessel, carries or at
tempts to carry in any vessel, British
or foreign, any dangerous goods, such as
aquafortls, vitriol, naphtha, gunpowder,
luclfer matches, nitroglycerin, petro-
leuIn, or any other goods of a dangerous
nature, without distinctly marking their
nature on the outside of the packages
containing the same, and also giving
written notice Of the nature Of such
goods and the name and address Of the
sender, he shall be liable to penalty
not exceeding e100; but if the person
sending the goods on board is merely an
agent and ignorant of its contents, the
penalty is not to exceed ten pounds.
False description makes the sender
liable to penalty of $500. The master
or owner of ship may refuse to take on
board vessel any suspicious package,
and may require it to be opened to ascer-
tain its contents. Clause 26 in the act
has always been looked upon as mis-
take in legislation. The master of q
ship is empowered TO throw overheard
goods Of dangerous nature which have
been sent without being marked or mott
fed Of their true character, and neither
the master nor the owner of the vessel
shall be subject to any liability for such
casting into the sea, civil or criminal, in
any court.
There is no reason for denouncing the
carriage of ammonia by sea, but it is of
the greatest Importance that each special
compound should be accurately defined,
and that it ought not to be exposed to
heat. If everything that expanded on
submission to heat We're interdicted, the
shipping trade would be sadly ham,
pered. For example-yeast is shipped
FOR conveyance, and is usually carried
on deck. In hot weather the casks have
been broken and hoops burst from ex-
posure to the sun, although no material
damage is done. We could name other
breakages, but enough has been urged
20 bring home the necessity for under
standing what to carry and where to
stow it.-Chemical Trade Journal.

Preaching Over Old Sermons.

The scandal arising from bought SER
mons, which unfortunately are often
sold in duplicate and even triplicate,
has caused at least one bishop hence
forth to forbid their use in his diocese.
He has no objection to his clergy preach
ing the sermons of other divines if the
authorship is acknowledged, and even
considers that an original discourse once
a week is as much as can be reasonably
expected from the average curate; but
there must be no duplicity in the mat
ter. There has always been a danger in
the purchased sermon.

An Officer in the Militia.

did it ever occur to you, said a West
Point graduate and national guards
man the other day, what it means TO be
popular officer in the national guard:
Something quite different, assure you,
from being popular officer in the regu-
lar army. Why? For this reason: In
the army, if an officer takes care of his
men, sees that they get their clothing
and pay promptly, looks ont for their in
terests in case they are so unfortunate
as TO be locked up IN the guardhouse,
no matter how strict disciplinarian he
may be, or how he may make the men
stand around, he will be popular with
them. But here in the guard the rela-
tionship between officer and men is en-
tirely changed. The rank and file, who
are men that need no supervision of their
personal affairs, expect their officers to
be good fellows socially.
AN officer need not be strict disci-
plinarian to be very popular, but 1t !.
only fair to say that the majority OF Ne
tional guard officers, especially IN some
Of our crack commands, have just as
thorough an understanding of military
requirements as regular army officers.
Everything else being equal, therefore,
the popularity Of the men may be com
pared as that of man among employees
or among his club equals. | mention
these facts 70 show how easily regular
army officer could fail TO succeed in the
guard, and, vice versa, how impossible it
would be for guard officer, whose easy
going society ways are an essential part
Of his success in his rank, 20 make a
name for himself In the army. Brook
