Rent fo- MAIZE LAM.

The st. Louis courts have recently
decided a case OF no like interest TO
the dvellers On the banks OF rivers
where new lani is likely to be male.
Mrs. Anna Il. Allen owns 145 acres OF
lgn1 at the point where the river Des
Peres enters the Mississippi, AMI she
leased it to the St. Louis, Iroa Noun
tain and Southern. Later sevealv-Eve
acres was aided to this tract by &C
cretions from the Mississippi. Tho
company has n transfer IT this point
and WAS com pellei t. cross the new
land IN transferring cars. It, how
ever, refused ID pay rem Tor tue land
embraced III the new formation, on
the ground that it was not embraced
In the lease. Judge Dillon held that
the accretions had become q part oil
the original tract, and, inasmuch as
the company had used the land. it was
liable for rent. The land was valued
by experts at $50 pr acre, ana iudg-
ment was given against the. railroad
upon the basis OF SIX per cent. on this
valuation. New Orleans Picayune.

The Height OF Mountains.

There are three ways OF measuring
| the height of mountains. namely, by
the barometer, by observations OF the
| atmospheric pressure, by observation
| OF the boiling point of water and by
calculation from data supplied by ac-
CITRATE Surveying instruments. the
necessary formula being supplied by
.rigonometrv. This last plan, known
as triengulation, is by far the most
accurate method. The first method is
based on tho fact tea: the atmosphere
IS denscs at the surface OF the earth,
having there - support the weight OF
the whole column of air above it, AMI
the decrease in pressure being known
by the barometer enables the observer,
after dge- allowances, according TO
Temperature, to work ont the height
Of the mountain. The second method
81 observing the boiling point OF water
by the thermometer is basel on the
~weil-knowa TACT that water boils Mt 212
degrees Fs h%rcnheit, at the level of the
sea, or at a pressure OF thirty inches
Of mezcury aud as the relatien be-
tween the pressure anu the poiilno
ONT is accurately known, the height
can be measured IN this way more or
less accurately. Triangulation is the
name applied to the process Of calcu-
lation by measuring tho angles Of tri-
angles. The angles having been
measured by the theodolite, and
knowing them AMI one side, trigono-
retry enab!esthe surveyor to calculate
the other two. Measuring by this
method is done with wonderful cor
rectness. Two instances of this ac-
c'lracy arc given in Thornton's
"Phyaio2raphy," Il Of a plain, and
the other Of a mountain. The length
OF Salisbury Plain was ascertained
With n result that was less than five
inches from the measured value. The
height of Ecn-AIac lhul was calculated
to be 1896 feet, and this height,
when checked, proved to be within
one an onc-half inches. New YORK
