PennsyIvania's Wheat Yield.

Pennsylvania does not raise more
wheat than her people consume.
She has population of about 5,0O0,-
900, which on an average require FIVE
bushels of wheat for each person, one
year, multiply the 8 million people
by five bushels required to bread
each one and we have q required
wheat yield of 25 million bushels.
The state Board of Agriculture puts
the wheat acreage this year at 1,30o,-
600, which will require an average
of over 19 bushel. an acre to produce
enough bread for the people of Penn
svlvania.

Adulterated Coffee.

Coffee drinkers will be interested
in the results of the government in
vestigation into the adultsration of
that household article. Thirty sam
pies of 'pure coffee" were bought
from as many different stores. Only
three were unadulterated, but all
were sold at irst-class prices as the
genuine article, The adultsration
consists principally of An artificial
coffee bean, nodded by machinery SO
carefully that it is almost impossible
to detect the fraud by the eye This
artificial product has little or no
taste or odor and simply makes bulk
and weight. One sample of "Rio,' -
bought at % cents pound contained
no coffee at all. These Investigations
show that nine-tenths Of the coffee
sold by grocers is adulterated.

The DsyiI's Mountain.

High up in tho Rogue River valley almost directly north from Montreal Is situated that singular pile of earth and stone locally known as Devils mountain"
 The Indians of that region call il Mountain Devil" or Trembling Devil" The geologists and geog raphers know it only as Trembling mountain. Years ago the late Sir William E. Logan and company camped Tear the base of this singu. lar peak, and on referring to 1t in his report Sir William mentioned sever al remarkable Indian legends which the Indians have connected 1t with. One of them was that the thunder god" used to sit upon the "Trem- bling Devil for three days in the spring, seven in summer, five in au- tumn and two in winter; that duf- ing the time of his presence great chasms would open in the sides of the mountain, from which frighful noises proceeded, occasionally tongues of dame were emitted, especially dur ing the midsummer sitting of the thunder god"
 Geologists account for the origin of these myths on a scientific basis and explain them by telling us that Trembling mountain is slowly sink ing into the earth's crust, the ''trem- bling, "quaking. ''groans" and noises" reported being the result of this phenomenon.-St. Louis Repub- lin

 Daniel Smith. ex-treasurer and ex-superyisor of this county, op. poses any material increase in the assessment of the railroad or otbe, property of Mohave county. He has made a careful study of county and territorial finances, and thinks that we are paying fully our share of territorial expenses. and more in proportion than some of the conn ties of the territory. He thinks that Maricopa county, for instance in which,most of the territorial funds are expended, pays taxes on less than one-third of the market valua of the property of the county n- Mohave Miner.

kingman people burned the presi
 dent in etfigy a short time since
 because of his opposition to silver
 There are those in this commu- nity who assert, and no doubt be- lieve, that the low price of silver IS benefit to this section of Arizona. The reason given is that it will tend to cause a greater activity in the development of gold properties. This argument is not without force. but not to the extent of being a blessing. There are lots of good gold properties in YaYapai county. but there arc many of them which contain a good percentage of silver aiso,-s percentage large enough. with silver at a fair price, to go a long way towards paying expenses of working the property. All such properties are very seriously affect ed by the low price of silver. With silver at Sl per ounce. this section would realize a veritable boom in mining. There are very large number of exclusively gold prop critics which are not affected by the low price of silver, and to the in- vestor in mines these properties offer excellent advantages at pres eut.

"Coin" is the name of new pub
 lication in Chicago, devoted exelu
 sively to the interests of silver coin, age. It is doing valiant service for the cause, and shows the fallaey of the argument of the gold bug advo- cates. It presents some very inter esting statistics on its title page, in the shape of three representations of thermometers indicating the price of wheat and cotton as com pared with the price of silver since 1872. At that time silver was worth Sl.32 per ounce, and wheat was worth Sl.4l per bushel, and cotton l9.3 cents per pound. Silver dropped by regular descending scale dur ing the next twenty one years until in 1893 it is quoted at .s2. Wheat and cotton followed down the scale also until in 1898 the former had dropped 70 75 cents and the latter to 7.S cents. If this sliding scale does not represent a strong argu- ment in favor of silver, and a refu- tation of the gold bug arguments, it represents one of the most re- markable coincidents ever wit messed.

The earliest notice of artifical eyes am acquainted with occurs in q very rare work by the French sur, geon Ambrose Pare, entitled La Methode Curative des Playes ct Frac. lures de Ia Teste Humaine," Paris. 1561. Pare gives a description and figures of artificial eyes to be worn in cases where the eyeball has given way and all the humors have escaped. They are to be segments of a hollow sphere, made of gold, coated with enamel painted in natural colors. With the exception of the gold, they are exactly like the eyes in use at the present time, which are made wholly of glass.-Notes and Queries.
