An interesting discovery comes to San
Diego, CAL. by the way OF the minins
town of Julian, up in the mountains. \
correspondent OF its paper, the Weekly
Sentinel, tells of journey over ths
Colorado desert. He had camped mid.
way between the Seventeen Palm
Springs, which Is about twenty miles
out, aud the Fish Springs, some 25j
feet below the sea level. From there hs
could trace for miles on the mounttin
side the line OF former sea. the portion
that was below the water being OF dull
gray.
From Fish Springs he travelled three
miles to the base OF mountain, aud
'ound that instead Of corroding line.

solid coral formation, 200 feet high, fol-
lowing ragged lines, tiIling crevices ani
lining cave with u spectacle OF mag

twenty-six ieet wide, OF cor al lining. is
hardly touched by time. In a little bay
between two jagged points OF the rocks,

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 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 tho ladies 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
result no man can know his wife or sister
on the street or in n public place. Since
the chadm covers the head it does away
with the hat or bonnet. Inexorablc Gus
tom requires this covering, and no ma
tive woman would venture to appear in
public without it. The gentlemen, how.
ever, crafty their own personal taste in
dress to the extent OF their means Of do.
ing so.-New York Advertiser.

Making Diamonds.

The microscopic diamonds recently
made by NJ. Henri Moissan 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-
periments 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
temperature of from 5000 to 1000 de-
grees Centigrade 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 white-that Is to say,
black diamond, or carbonado, aud 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. Tho diamond crys-
tails were exceedingly minute, and quite
unfit for jewelry. Moreover, the process
is very expensive. Manchester Times.

The Legislature of Illinois considered
a 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 and punishable by a
heavy fine for any person over the age of
ten years, s'with or without malice, pur-
posely to aim any firearm, loaded or emp
ty, at or towards any person or persons"
1t is good law, comments the New Or

the country should pass similar one it
might save good many lives, for scarce
a day passes but some fool with gun

A SONG OF FAREWELL

Ye happy birds, oh, whittier fiyingf
So swift ye wing away
scarce can mark your trailing pinions.
Does there a warmer day
Await on other shores,
To your glad summons quick replyings
Oh, linger yet awbilei Ye carry
The summer on your wing:
Too long will winter seem without you,
Too tardy coming, spring.
But melody of song
In warmer climes delights to tarry.
Alasl 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 i--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.

A Queer Quaker Traveller.

A curious looking, white haired old
man, arrayed in peculiar garb, with q
black choker and broad brimmed hat, Is
at the Occidental Hotel. The old gen.
tleman is Isaac Sharp of Warwickshire,
England, 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-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.
81 spent year and a half in Africa"
said he, ga 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 l
have been out a long time also, my great
object being to visit the interior of China
and do what could tiere.
SITS only very little that could do,
there are so many millions of people
there, but 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 mile and half wide
1000 miles up. 1t is rough from there
on, and I think in the additional 500
miles I 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 and 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. have seen many
curious things in my long years of travel,
but the thIng which has impressed me
more than anything else is this: That
the hearts of the people are everywhere
the same. go now to the east, to the
strongh bids of the Quakers in Pennsyl-
vauia, where will talk to the people of
what have seen and confer with them
as to the best means of reaching the peo-
Pile in China and elsewhere in the
Orient. San Francisco Examiner.

and the physicians consider them very
beneficial to the patients.
Several French railway lines are going
to light their carriages with the electric

practical to make and store electricity by
means Of mechanical attachment to the

The order has been given that all the

A method of signalling from balloons
has been devised by an Englishman,
oh IN 1har
of electric lamps in balloon to the
earth by means of a special form of lexi-
BILE cable. Current can then be supplied
the lamps from the ground through the
cable and 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 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

Failing to eat as large proportions OF
bran as our ancestors did, we are de-
prived to large degree of the huorine
which they contain. The enamel of the
teeth has more fuorine, in the form of
duoride of calcium, than any other part
OF the body. Fluorine might, indeed,
be regarded as the characteristic chem
ical constituent of this structure, the
hardest of all animal tissue; hence sup
ply of fuorine, 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 aud inferior enamel.

The New Pension Commissioner.

The president has appointed William
Lochren, Of Minnesota, to be commits
sioner Of pensions. The following sketch
Of the new sppointee's public career is
going the rounds Of the press:
"Judge Lochren's reputation as jur-
ist is of the first order, and his military
record is particularly brilliant. He is 81
years Of age and was born in Vermont,
where he was educated in the public
schools and admitted to the bar. He
went to Minnesota in 1857 and practiced
his profession, but when the war broke
out he was one of the first men in the
state to abandon his civil pursuits and
enlist in the First Minnesota regiment.
His service during the war was severe,
eliminating at Gettysburg, where his
regiment made the famous charge that
checked Pickett's onslaught. OF the 300
men who made that charge only forty
came out whole and young Lochren, who
started on the rush as first lieutenant
of Company E, came of in command Of
the regiment, every officer above bis
grade having been killed or wounded.
"When the war was over Judge Loch-
rem returned to Minnesota and resumed
the practice Of law. He was very popular

South Carolina Liquor Law.

In the following dispatch from Charles
ton, the main effort seems to be to ridi-
Guile the new liquor law Of that state,
just as is done ia every other case where
an effort is being made to improve old
methods. South Carolina may have set
an example from which other states
could learn something to their advsn-
tage.
There will be no liquor or beer sold
in South Carolina except by the state
after July l. Four OF the most eminent
legal firms in the state yesterday decided
the matter.
"Soon after the passing Of the law at
the last session Of the legislature the
liquor dealers Of the state formed an
association and employed counsel to
test it's constitutionslitY. The counsel
fled their opinion, which was submitted
to the executive committee Of the liquor
dealers, that 'hFy prepare to meet tue
law as valid and constitutional on and
after July l. The news was great sur
prise, and it's effects in business point
OF view will be serious, as it will retire a
large number Of persons from business.
"In the meantime the governor Of the
state is travelling in the west and north
making arrangements to start the state
bar room July l. Under the new law
the state will sell all the liquor and beer
sold in South Carolina. Governor Till
man expects to buy the liquors either in
Chicago, st. Louis or New York. The
act sppropristes only $4,000 with which
to start business, but the governor thinks
the state can easily get all the credit it
wants."
