What Machinery Is Doing.

One of the astonishing facts in the field of industry is the marvellous power of machinery operated by hand. In the cotton trade, in 1850, the average product of every employe was some thing less than $7O0, while thirty years later he was able to produce value of S1 200, notwithstanding the reduced price of cotton. In the woolen factory the change was much the same, the hand of each worker being able as long ago as 1850 to make over $1 200 of prod uct, and in 1880 about $1,SO0, the pro- portion of material consumed by i'm proved machinery being about the same. How much the world is in- debted to invention cannot be stated in tangible form, says the Journal of Finance, but with the strength of man remaining the same and the skill of the present artisan, though showing some advances, still not distancing that of the ancient Egyptian, the vast increase of human resources is due mainly to the influence of invention in discovering ways in which machines can do the work of men. The compe tition is no longer competition o1 skill of labor, but that of invention and in America we are far in advance of any other nation in this respect. A man who fifty years ago could turn out value equal to scant wage, now, al fairly good wages, is able to bring into being four or five or six times the value.

 JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 5.-Another gang of men were today put to work on the arena, and from this it is inferred that the club is very confident of the fight occurring in this city. Tho off, cials say they will on Monday issue a statement disclosing thelr plans. Bow den recently wired Gov. Mitchell re- garding his position in the matter of the contest and yesterday received an answer, but Bowden denies that it has any reference to the fight. But it was of sufficient importance to call special meeting of the club, and it is evident the news Bowden communicated to the club officials was not very untavorable.
 The club people are now more posi- tive than ever the fight will take place. Even money is now offered that Mitch ell will not respond in the twenty first round. Some of this has been taken, as the general opinion is the Englishman will make longer fight.

 SAN DIEGO, Cal, Jan. 5.-The terms of concession received by President Carlson, of the San Diego & Phoenix railroad. from the Mexican government have been made public. Contrary to the general understanding no cash sub- sidy is given by Mexico for the con- struction of the road, but the provisions of the contract are otherwise very liber- al. The time of the concession is ninety-nine years, and one contract covers both the line from Tia Juona to to Yuma and the branch from Tia Juana to Ensenada.
 Tho right of way is given for the en. tire length of each line 70 meters width through the public lands with permis- sion to use all materials on the ground to build or repair the road. All de- posits of coal found on the line are to become the property of the company The right to construct telegraph line is granted. Eight years are allowed for the completion of the work and six months for the beginning of the prelim- mary survey. Express exemption for fifteen years from all classes ol import duties is given for the import. ation of material supplies, etc., for the road anc the road is declared free from all taxation of whatever charac ter excepting stamp tax for thirty years. With the concession is . con tract whereby land for colonization purposes is granted. This comprises [ strip twenty miles in width along the railroad right of way for its entire length. There must be 8 thousand families settled upon this land within eight years. As the country traver.ed is rich in resources no difficulty is ap. prehended in securing colonists when the railroad is constructed. The loan is already arranged for through the Metropolitan Trust Co.,, of New York, who will provide ample means for build ing the road.

TAKE A BEECH TREE.
It Is Considered the Safest for Shelter in
 a Thunder Storm.

It Is Considered the Safest for Shelter in
 a Thunder Storm.
 The danger of taking refuge under tree when caught in thunderstorm is one of which we are constantly re- minded; but, when we have to choose between getting wet through with it's attendant discomfort and the (appar- ently) small chance of being struck by lightning while under the shelter of the tree, it is only natural that we should decide in favor of the latter, says the Paris Figaro.
 Under such circumstances it is of ad- vantage to know which is the best tree to choose for shelter. A certain Herr Wockert tells us that we should select a beech tree, and gives us the follow ing reason:
 Itis always advisable to select those trees whose leaves are hairy or ciliated in preference to trees with smooth leaves. The danger of being struck by lightning depends not only upon the height of the tree, but also upon its power of conductibility, determined by the amount of sap and it's electric tension,
 Most of us know the tendency o1 points to attract electricity, the most notable example of the application ot this principle being the lightning con ductor. The hair, or cilia, of leaves act the part of natural lightning con ductors, and thus prevent the forma tion of very strong electro-motive force; therefore it stands to reason tha there is less danger in sheltering under beech tree than under an oak or tree of similar kind.

A CLEVER SCHEME.
A Large Number of Inventors Are .f.a S Easily Duped.

KEoKUK, Ia., Jan. 5.-J. H. Wills and ". A. Bell are held under $5,000 bonds to appear before the federal grand jury on charge of using the mails for fraudulent purposes. Wills father was captain of g merchant ship between San Francisco and China. His son was educated in Japan. The father spent at least $50, 900 on him. The son es- tablished the first Chinese newspaper in America published in San Francisco. The scheme worked by Wills and Bell was to enter into correspondence with owners of patents. pretending they had an offer of farm to exchange for the patent. A fee of $25 was required for examination of title, etc. When the money had been sent the owner of the patent was notified that the farm property was poor and this closed the correspondence. A large number of letters of this sort were secured by government officers to be used as evi- dence.

THE MIDsHIPMITE." "

by which young sailors in the navy are often called.
 These disks are exactly like small bull's-eye lanterns with regular lenses and refectors.
 The lenses, says the Boston Herald, gather the rays and the refectors throw them out again. There is a lay CT of phosphorescent cells between the two, and the entire effect is as perfect as if made by some skillful optician. Many other fish have "refectors, " many have "lenses," but the ''mid- shipmite" is the only kind that has such splendid specimens of both.
 The fish is so constructed that when it is frightened by some devouring sea monster it can close it's lenses and hide itself in the darkness. It can turn it's lantern off and on at will, and then it is always filled" and ready when wanted.
 Another marine animal has lumin- ous bulb that hangs from its chin, and thus throws the light before it to warn it of the approach of enemies. Still another upholds a big light from the extremity of the dorsal fin. Others again have constant supplies of lumin- ous oil that runs down their sides from the fins, making bright and constant light all around it.
 Most of the jelly fish are phosphores- cent. These live far down, on the very floor of the ocean, where it is always dark and gloomy. The dwellers in these watery depths are provided with lights of their own shining bodies and fins, which illumine their home with a strange, though no doubt cheerful, glare.
