SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL.


Rome, Italy, Is to be illuminated by
electricity generated twenty miles away
by cascade at Tiber.
Professor Simmands OF Hamburg has
shown by experiments that flies can in
feet eatables, and especially sauces, with
cholera germs.
A man at Riverside, Fla, recently
succeeded in extracting from eighteen
pounds of orange peel oil in proportion
of fifty pounds to one ton of peel.
Considered us a luminary, the sun has
an intrinsic lustre between three and four
times greater than that of the electric
light, when the latter is at its brightest.
Musical and dramatic entertainments
are given each week at the Blooming
dale Insane Asylum, New York City,
and the physicians consider them very
beneficial to the patients.
Several French railway lines are going
to light their carriages with the electric
light, ''as it has been found perfectly
practical to make and store electricity by
means Of mechanical attachment to the
engine"
The order has been given that all the
portraits taken in British prisons, as
records of crimes aud criminals, shall for
the future be printed only on platinum
paper, the object being to secure their
permanency.
A method of signalling from balloons
has been devised by al Englishman,
which consists in connecting a number
of electric lamps in a balloon to the
earth by means of special form Of fiexi-
BILE cable. Current can then be supplied
the lamps from the ground through the
cable aud they can be lighted or ex-
tinguished by switch located on the
ground. The advantage of this system
over the older forms of war signalling
balloons is that a small and readily por-
table balloon can be used, as it carries
no car and all It is called upon to raise
is simply the weight OF the lamps and
the attached cable.
White bread and fine -four are named
by Sir James Crichton Browne as one of
the causes of the increase of dental carries.
Failing to eat as large proportions Of
bran as our ancestors did, we are de-
prived to large degree of the fuorine
which they contain. The enamel of the
teeth has more fluorine, in the form Of
fuoride of calcium, than any other part
OF the body. Fluorinc might, indeed,
be regarded as the characteristic chem
ical constituent of this structure, the
hardest of all animal tissue; hence sup
ply of huorine, while the development of
the teeth is proceeding, is essential to
the proper formation of the enamel, and
any deficiency in this respect must result
in thin and inferior enamel.

Wonders of the Desert.

An interesting discovery comes TO Slu
Diego, CAL, by the way Of the mining
town of Julian, up in the mountains. A
correspondent of its paper, the Weekly
Sentinel, tells of journey over the
Colorado desert. He had camped mil
way between the Seventeen Palm
Springs, which Is about twenty miles
out, aud the Fish Springs, some 2JO
feet below the sea level. From there ne
could trace for miles on the mountain
side the line of a former sea, the portion
that was below the water being of dull
gray.
From Fish Springs he travelled three
miles TO the base of a mountain, ald
found that instead of corrodIng lime,
the almost perpendicular rock was of
solid coral formation, 200 feet high, fol-
lowing ragged lines, filling crevices aui
lining cave with a spectacle of mag
nifcence. The cave, fifty feet high by
twenty-six feet wide, of cor al lining, is
hardly touched by time. In little bay
between two jagged points Of the rocks,
the beach outlines are still distinct
above the coral formation. Little coves
are cut in the rocks as evide noes of shel.
ter for Indians, while from them run in-
distinct trails upward.--San Francisco
Chronicle.

Making Diamonds.

The microscopic diamonds recently
made by NJ. Henri Moissau are not the
first real diamonds made by the chemist.
Some years ago, Mr.. Hannay, of Glas-
gov, succeeded in making few small
gems, and another Glasgow chemist not
long ago announced in an American
scientific journal that he was making ex-
lperlments in this direction, aud had OBJ
tanned promising results. Moissan, how
ever, was the first to form a gem by
means of the high temperature of the
electric furnace, though the idea of doing
so is not exactly novel. Moissan obtains
a temperature of from 5000 to 1000 de-
grees Ceutigrade is his electric cruc-
ible, and fuses iron or silver, which alb
serbs the carbon of sugar. When the
fused metal cools, part of the carbon
separates from it again in the form of
crystals, black or whitehall is to say,
black diamond, or caFbonado, and ordi-
nary clear diamond. The capitalization
seems to be facilitated by pressure, which
is produced by the expansion of the sugar
carbon as it cools. The diamond crys-
tails were exceedingly minute, and quite
unfit for jewelry. Moreover, the process
is very Observation-Disclosures Times.

A Queer Quaker Traveller.

A curious looking, white haired old
man, arrayed in a peculiar garb, with
black choker and broad brimmed hat, is
at the Occidental Hotel. The old gen.
tlemsn is Isaac Sharp of Warwickshire,
England, a Quaker and religious en-
thusiast. He is now eighty-four years
old and for fifty years he has been travel
ing in various parts of the world, and
this in the interest Of the Quakers.
He has just now returned from 1900
miles up the great Yang g-tse-kiang River
in the interior of China. Hitherto he
has been in Iceland, Greenland, Labra-
dor, Norway, and in various other places
in Europe, Asia and Africa. In the
Dark Continent he visited the Congo
Free State, the Orange Free State, Basu-
toland and Madagascar.
az spent year and half in Africa"
said he, ia year of which was in NADIA
gascar; two years in Australia and New
Zealand, and the remainder of six and a
quarter years In Canada, the United
States and Mexico. That was the extent
of my last trip before this. This time
have been out long time also, my great
object being to visit the interior of China
and do what could there.
"It's only a very little that could do,
there are SO many millions of people
there, but l have tried at least, and that
is something. The people are very poor
up the Yany-tse kiang River. That
stream, which is much larger than the
Mississippi, is a mile and half wide
1000 miles up. 1t is rough from there
on, and 1 think in the additional 500
miles saw the wrecks of 500 Chinese
junks.
"The Quakers have one mission in
China, one in Japan, four in India, one
in Syria and one in Madagascar. There
may be Is, 200 Quakers now in Great
Britain and Ireland, which is somewhere
about one-fourth of what there are in the
United States aud Canada Elsewhere
we have few members who are doing
all they can for Christianity.
az have been travelling and trying to
find out what was the best thing to do
and how to do it. 1 have seen many
curious things in my long years of travel,
but the thlng which has impressed me-
more than anything else is this: That
the hearts of the people are everywhere
the same. l go now to the east, to the
strongholds of the Quakers in Pennsyl-
vania, where will talk to the people of
what have seen and confer with them
as to the best means of reaching the peo-

The Legislature of Illinois considered
bill whose object is to prevent people
from losing their lives by the gun which
he did not know was loaded. The bill
makes it unlawful aud punishable by a
heavy fine for any person over the age of
ten years, s'with or without malice, pur-
posely to aim any frearm, loaded or emp
ty, at or towards any person or persons. :"
1t is a good law, comments the New Or
leans Picayune, and if all the States in
the country should pass similar one it
might save a good many lives, for scarce
day passes but some fool with a gun
that ne did not know was loaded blows
off somebody's head. Such people are
seldom punished, ignorance aud lack of
intention being accepted as sufficient
excuse for their most criminal careless

Social Life In Persia.

Social life in Persia has its unique
features and odd phrases to one accus-
toned only to the life as Europeans and
Americans. Excepting in the family
circle and the places of worship the pres
ence of woman is unknown as a feature
of the association. The men live a sort
of club life. They ride, walk, gossip
and gamble by themselves alone. The
men often spend days away from home
in feasting and sport. In like manner
the women have the company Of women
only. But while the ladies are fond OF
dress and free with their money when
they have any, they are not troubled
much with the changes of the fashions.
These are the same during centuries.
Custom prescribes for the ladies a Co.'S
tune to be worn in the street and mosque
and church; it consists of overalls
and large wrap or mantle called a
chadm; both are of dark blue cotton
fabric. One object of the costume is to
obliterate all distinctions between the
rich and poor in apparel. In this all
women look alike excepting only the
different appearance in stature. As a
result no man can know his wife or sister
on the street or in public place. Since
the chadm covers the head it does away
with the hat or bonnet. Inexorablo Gus
tom requires this covering, aud no m.
tive woman would venture to appear in
public withoutit. The gentlemen, ho v
ever, crafty their own personal taste in
dress to the extent of their means Oi do
ing so.-New York Advertiser.

A Bedspread for the Worlds Fair.

The famous cotton spinners of Man
chester, England, Messrs. Barlow &
Jones, have prepared beautiful exhibit
OF towels, spreads and other products of
the loom for showing at Chicago. In
cluded is a spread, or quilt as it is called
over there, which is the Columbian eel
ebration quilt. In the centre are the
stripes aud the thirteen stars, represent
ing the several States of America, inter-
mixed with palm leaves. In the border
are the eagle, the arms of Isabella and
Ferdinand, aud in one corner those Of
the State of Illinois, the cotton plant
figuring conspicuously in the design,
which is of fawn tint on white.
The "Windsor Castle" and the "Em-
pire" quilts also figure in the exhibition.

SONG OF FAREWELL

Ye happy birds, oh, whittier fyingf
So swift ye wing away
scarce can mark your trailing pinions.
Does there warmer day
Await ON other shores,
To your glad summons quick replying2
oh, linger yet awbilel Ye carry
The summer on your wing;
Too long will winter seem without you,
Too tardy coming, spring.
But melody Of song
In warmer climos delights to tarry.
Alas we may not more entreat you,
When bluer skies await;
When other birds will carol welcomes,
And tales OF Joy relate.
We can but pray, sweet friends
That no harsh storms will ever meet you
And so-away l--far out of seeing
Into the heaven high;
Leaving no mark save that of music
On earth and sea and sky;
No sweeter song than made
BY your light pinions southwark fleeing.
