1t is reported from Denver that a nat
ural bridge formed by Il tree of agatized
wood, spanning a canyon 45 feet wide,
has been found in Chalcedony park in
Arizona. 1t is supposed that the tree
had at some remote time fallen, when it
became inbedded in the silt of some
great inland sea or mighty water over
flow. The silt became in time sand
stone, and the wood gradually passed
through the stages of naturalization.
until now it is a wonderful tree of solid
agate. Again, in after years, water has
washed and eaten away the sandstone
until a canyon As feet in width has been
formed, the flintlike substances of the
agatized wood having resisted the erosion
of the waterhow.-Yankee Blade.

1t is evidently Il veteran sailor who
makes the suggestion that, us a vessel
always goes asher - ieeward. and the
life line shot from shore must there
fore be fired againa. the wind. and with
all the difficulties which this implies.
every vessel should carry IA supply of
rockets, which. attached to deep sea log
line and signal halliards. would connect
them much more speedily with the
shore.-Boston Transcript.

Silent Machinery.

The Safety Valve calls attention to the
fact that the problem Of silent machinery
has been solved by a firm in Vienna.
This firm is manufacturing cogwheels of
pressed rawhide. The new wheels have,
it is claimed, great strength, and they do
not require lu%bricating. On the other
hand, they are very expensive, and are
consequently unlikely to come into gen.
eral use.

There were seats enough for all except
n young man, whose party Of two
pairs sat down zeal the door. 1t was
the high spirits of this group doubtless
that prompted the suggestion by one of
them that the standing young maj
should sit in the lap Of his young woman
for greater comfort. This he promptly
did, and n o being repulsed sat there
with great content to himself.
At Reade street a young Irish girl
boarded the Car. It was evident to ev-
cry N that she was recently landed.
well intentioned and little informed.
She stood at the door a minute and
looked bewildered upand down the filled
seats. Then her eye fell upon a young
man sitting at ease in Il Young woman's
lap. She darted forward, and before any
one had the slightest idea Of her inten-
ton she seated herself respectfully but
firmly on the lap OF the other young man.
1t was hard TO tell which was the fun
niest, the agitation Of the Young man, the
calm of the young oman or the hyster-
ical laughter of the colored girl in the
corner. who explained 70 the passengers
between her neai>:
She thinks aeu as comes fust sits on
de seats. an dem as comes next sits on de

Which wis evidently Just what she
did think until the cuI.ddrinr came to
the rescue.-E.w fork i~,,coricr.

degrees by means of wood fire, sup
plemented by the use of pound and a
half of sulphur to every box of hops.
The sulphur gives the hops a light
color desirable for the London market,
and also gives heat. For these seven
teen kilns twelve tons of sulphur will
be used this year. When dry the
hops are pressed and baled by horse
power, bales averaging $50 pounds
each. 1t requires seven men to fill
the press and sew the bales up at the
ends. This force puts out bale every
seven minutes.
Is there money in hops? Mr.. Meek
er and his sons will have about 225
tons for export from their own yards
this year. At the prevailing price, II
cents, they are worth $340 per ton, or
$4,000 for their crop. Superinten-
dent Meyers says hops can be raised
in the valley for 9 cents a pound
which would leave 8 cents per pound
profit. The two Kent yards, old and
new, will average about 1000 pounds
to the acre. Some of the old hops
will Weld $500 per acre.

School Abuses.

The incidental expenses OF our pub
lie schools are needlessly heavy; in
fact intolerable. States must be had
OF certain sizes, and they must be
framed in a particular way; the PEN
ellis must be of peculiar color, and
bookcovers must bear a specific shade
or hue. The blank paper must be of
a particular make and ruled in widths
and with colors to suit fastidious and
aesthetic taste formed upon Chautau-
quan culture, or other methods of
pedagogic dilettanti, devised during
summer vacations.
On Monday last a child went to one
of our school houses with a slate 6x1O.
Work was sent to her parents on a
blank prepared for the purpose, at
public expense, that she must have a
slate XII. No attention was paid to
it by the parents, who were of opinion
that slate 6x10 would do we'll enough.
On Wednesday the child returned
with a peremptory demand for slate
Sxl2. Thereupon the mother thought
it time to start for the schoolhouse.
To the teacher in charge she said
My child has slate that is perfect
and large enough. Yet l have re-
ceived this week an order for two
other states OF different sizes. Iwould
like to know what is the ultimate
proposition in regard to states, for it
does not suit me to buy all the sizes
in Portland" Satisfaction was not
obtained, for the teacher was only a
part or instrument of a machine
But has Superintendent Pratt any
thing to do with these mattersi
HIVE the directors of the public
schools? Some of US yet remember a
time when the size of the slate, or the
color or exact length of the pencil,
or the water lines or scent upon the
paper, was not q matter OF vital i'm.
portance.
Our whole public school system
needs an overhauling, and must have
it. The school martinez system has
been carried too far; it has grown tc
excess; it has become oppressively
expensive; its methods are uniruitful
finical and absurd. The bankruptcy
that overtakes every other folly will
overtake this also. The people can
not, will not, tolerate its cost and its
fruitless results. The whole system
must be reformed and carried back tc
simple methods OF practical economy
usefulness and common sense.

Among the leading authorities on
the conditions of finance is the
American Agriculturist, the last issue
Of which is before us. In an article
upon the future outlook for crops and
prices, il says:
Present indications point to crop
OF l,750,O00,O00 bushels of corn,
contrasted with l,630,OO0,OOG last
year and over 2,0O0OOOOOO bushels
in the immense yield OF two seasons
previous.
The wheat crop is good and the
years average of oats has never been
exceeded. There is the usual quantity
of rye, and the supply of hay is over
So, 100000 tons.
Uncle Sam is surely not on the way
to the poorhouse when the hay crop is
believed to represent a value to the
farmers of $1.OOO,OOO,OOO. Corn, at
40 cents per bushel, comes next with a
total of $725,OO0,OOO, followed by
wheat, valued at $500, 600, if worth
90 cents a bushel, and by oats worth
$lS5, 100000, if valued at 80 cents a
bushel on the farm. Potatoes promise
to net an average of 70 or Is cents
per bushel, or a total OF $l25, 5,0O0,O 900,
while the prospective cotton crop, at
$35 a bale, will be worth not less
than $25O,OOO,OOO.
Boom business and stop boarding
money.
