A Boston benevolent society has
undertaken the work of assisting in
the deportation of consumptives un-
able to pay all of their own expenses,
to more favorable climates. The
harsh climate of Massachusetts, is
peculiarly trying to the throat and
lungs, and the death rate from the
disease is far in excess Of that from
any other cause. The Boston ply
siciaus have been paying especial
attention to it of late, and the theory
that consumption is contagious is
generally accepted. By removing
consumptives, therefore, to a milder
and dryer climate not only will the
life of the patient be prolonged, but
source of deadly peril removed
from the family of the sufferer.

The African Steamship Company's
steamer Winnebah, which has just
arrived from West Africa at Liver
pool, has he'd a most unusual ex-
perience when steaming between the
latitude of Cape Verde and st. Louis
Senegal, says the Westminster Ga
zette. For sixty miles the vessel
steamed through locusts, which were
so thickly packed together on the
top of the water that they complete
ly covered the the surface, for miles
around; indeed, they appeared to
be lying on the. sea as tar as the eye
could reach. The lo:usts had no
doubt been blown from the Morocco
coast into the sea. They resemble
gigantic grasshoppers, and one
which was secured was FIVE inches
in length. Of course, all OF the To-
Gusts had been drowned.

Away down in tie dark depths of
the ocean there are living lanterns
that are borne about to light up the
darkness, says the New York Press.
A queer fish, called the "midship>
rnite," carries the brightest and most
striking of all these sea torches.
Along its back, under it and at the
base of its fins there are small disks
that glow with a phQsphorescent
light, like rows of shining buttons
on the young middy's uniform. In
this way it gets its name "midship-
mite" by which young sailors in the
navy are often called. These disks
are exactly like small bull's-eye Ian
terms, with regular lenses and re-
Electors. The lenses gather the rays
and the refectors throw them cut
again. There is a layer of phosphor-
escent cells between the two, and
the entire effect is as perfect as if
made by some skillful oDtician.
The fish is so constructed that
when it is frightened by some de-
vouring sea monster it can close it's
lenses and hide itself in the dark
ness. 1t can turn its lantern on
and off at will, and then it is always
''6lled" and ready when wanted.
another marine animal has "a lumi-
nous bulb that hangs from the chin,
and thus throws the light before it,
to warn it of the approach of enc
mics. Still another upholds a big
light from the extremity of the DOR
sal fin. Others again have constant
supplies of a luminous oil that runs
down their sides from the fms, max
ing a bright and constant light all
around.

suggest by the great number of
