Origin of the Phosphate Beds.

Professor E. T. Cox, formerly State
Geologist of Indiana, regards the rock
phosphate of some of the immense phos-
phate beds of Florida, as of mineral
and not animal origin. He calls this
especial variety of phosphorite by the
name of Floridite. These remarkable
beds he has traced in places over an area
of about twenty miles in width. The
phosphate rests on rocks of Eocene age.
The underlying rock may be carbonate
of lime or sandstone, and contains from
one to three per cent. OF phosphoric acid.
Some of the beds of bone phosphate are
thirty seven feet deep; and the rock will
sometimes yield eighty per cent. of bone
phosphate. Floridite he regards as the
naturalization of an ancient guano. AS
the Peninsula of Florida was elevated
above the ocean, the land bordering the
sea on the west coast became the resting
place of innumerable aquatic birds and
other animals. Rains carried away the
soluble alkalies, leaving the less soluble
phosphate of lime. He says that on some
of the islands of the Pacific Coast ara
guano beds 200 feet thick--so that there
is no difficulty in the way of looking to
this as q source for the naturalization of
an ancient guano. York Indepead.

A Home. e.Made Dark Lantern.

Says correspondent: "Put some
heated olive oil into small bottle, drop
in piece of phosphorus, cork it up
securely and put it in safe place. Any
time the cork is removed for few Sec
onds and then replaced, a powerful light
will be given out by the bottle, which
will last several minutes and be again
renewed at any moment by pulling out
the cork. A more convenient device for
finding house or number in street
where there are no lights could scarcely
be devised, as it will give off its light on
the stormiest night, and if it gets out of
order can always be got into shape again
by aid of little warmth. The mixture
once prepared will last for some weeks
with but reasonable amount of care. !"

Protection From Rifle Bullets.

Commenting on the penetrative powers
If the small arms lately introduced into
The armies of all the great Powers,
Colonel Lonsdale Hale states that the
minimum thickness of ordinary soil af-
'ording protection is thirty inches, while
Jingle brick walls, after being struck
few times, no longer afford any cover.
The new German rifle ranges up to 1000
yards, and at 900 yards the bullet will
penetrate ten inches of fir or pine and
fourteen inches of sand. At 45O yards
the bullet can pierce three or four ranks,
and at 1900 yards man may no longer
consider himself safe, even if the bullet
has already penetrated two OF his COM
rades. With regard to ''smokeless
POWDER" the same authority observes
that, though the report of the rifles when
fired is heard, it is very difficult to see
whence the rifles are fired. Under GER
tain conditions no trace of smoke can be
distinguished. Minor acts of surprise,
he considers, will be more frequent in
the future, and will often partake of the
nature Of ambuscades. Very small bodies
of cavalry, intimately connected with
infantry, forming in action patrols of the
latter, will, therefore, be necessary, and
it will no longer be possible to discover
well posted batteries. On the whole,
Colonel Hale considers that only war
can absolutely decide what the effects of
the improvements in small-arms will be.
One thing, however is certain-that is,
that the difficulty of leading troops has
considerably increased. London News.

The City Din.

There is no doubt that the noise of the
city has been steadily increasing for many
years. 1t is perhaps inevitable, and yet
1t is plain enough that, if some restric-
tion is not put upon the unnecessary tur.
moil, there will be no such thing as resi-
dence here, except to those unable TO re-
tire into the suburbs. One easily be-
comes convinced of the insensible wear
and tear upon the nerves of all the racket
incident to the city by noting the irrita-
bility it occasions after the annual re-
turn from the country, when term of
rural quiet has taken us back to our nor
NAL sensibility. Oh, for the conveniences
of the city and the country's opror.

Acting Out q Dream.

A young lady of this place who is Treas

After this was accomplished she went
into her brothers room, took his loaoed
revolver and started for the yard. 1t is
not known just how long she was out OF
doors, but the next morning the revolver
was found in barrel at the rear of the

in the barrel it dawned upon the young
lady that perhaps some person had been

no legal right to do so; and further, that
it would be Objectionable, on account of
obstructing the light of the windows,
