1t is known that the use of glass
of a green tint has for half a century
been characteristic popularity OF
the plant houses at Kew gardens. In
1889 the experiment was made OF
substituting white glass for green
in the east wing of the tropical fern
house. This was tho result of tho
observation of the successful cult
walton by Sir Trevor Lawrence of
ferns with full exposure to the light
at Burford, near Dorking. The i'm
provement in the growth of the
was remarkable. In 1892 a
portion of the west wing was also
reglazed in the same manner, and
the new temperate Penthouse was
wholly glazed with white glass Tho
result with the glcichcnias and other
half tardy ferns was everything that
bc desired. As tho result il
mas now been determined to abandon
The future use Of green glass alto.

Lord Bere.rord,. "snan.n

The fraudulent Lord Beresford,"
who is in the Georgia penitentiary,
seems to have rather good time Of
1t. He has been made "trusty" and
appointed an inspector, with an allow
ance Of $18 per month. It is amusing
to see him lord it over Harry Hill, who
Is still Gin the ranks" as it were. The
two men are at outs and will have moth
ing to do with each other. Hill is al
ways complaining, and every day he
has a new kick coming. While Hill has
to bunk and eat with common conVicts,
Lord Beresford has apartments at a
boarding house and rarely comes to the
camps. He has almost unlimited liber-
ties. In addition to his $18 per month
allowance, my lord" realizes a neat
sum from a night school which he Is
allowed to teach. The school Is quite
a large one, and Beresford conducts it
in his convict garb. He is also allowed
some privileges in regard to his dress.
Instead Of the full regulation striped
suit, he wears only the trousers, with
neat citizens coat and vest. This Ia
his schoolroom attire.

An Odd Pavement,

3. Turke, the head chemist of sugar
refinery at Chino, Cal, has recently
been making some experiments which
have resulted in the completion of the
oldest pavement ever laid. It is made
mostly Of molasses, the kind used hay
ing been a refuse product hitherto be-
lleved to be utterly worthless. 1t is
simply mixed with a certain kind Of
sand to about the consistency of as
phalt, and laid like asphalt pavement.
The composition dries quickly, and be-
comes permanently hard. The heat Of
the sun, instead Of softening 1t, makes
he pavement harder and drier. A
lIock Of the composition successfully
withstood repeated blows Of a machine
hammer and showed no signs Of
cracking or bending. Should the pave
ment prove to be all that is claimed the
sugar planters of the south may find
a profitable market for the millions Of
gallons Of useless molasses which they
are said to have on hand.

Niagara by Electric Light.

The Michigan Central Railway has
placed an order with the General Elec-
trio Company of Schenectady, N. Y, for
two powerful seach lights with which
to illuminate Niagara Falls. The order
calls for two 4S-inch lamps Of 100000
candle power each. These will be oper-
ated from the Falls View Station ter
race, and with different colored lenses,
or slides, a brilliant effect will be pro-
duced upon the raging waters Of the
rapids and the falls. The power to gen.
crate the current will be taken from the
river itself. The only similar attempt
Of Illuminating waterfalls is that Of the
famous Rhine at Schloss Lanfen, Ger

into insignifcance beside illuminated

That retrlbution for INSCRIPTIONS
dealings Is sometimes visited upon the
wrongdoer speedily and from an un-
expected quarter is illustrated in an In
cident given in the Missionary Re-
view," and taken from a native paper.
"A milkman at a fair made so rupees
by selling milk which was largely wa
ter. Grateful for his prosperity, he
made an offering to the shrine and set
about washing away his sins by bath
ing in the river, though 1t does not ap-
pear that he reckoned the adulteration
Of milk among them. He laid aside his
garments, In which were the so rupees,
and proceeded to his bath, when a mon
key seized the garment and climbed to
the topmost branch Of tree oVerhang-
ing the water. To the horror Of the
bather he saw the beast take out the
silver pieces and drop them, one by
one, into the swift-howing stream.
There was nothing to be done but to
bear his loss; but mindful Of how the
money was obtained the man plously
exclaimed to the river, Mother Gunga

NEVER WEARS HArO.
Citlpn of Bradford, Pa, BsllsTsS in
Natures Covering.


Clinton Miller, Of Bradford, Pa, a
florist gardener and quite an intelil-
gent man, says the Buffalo Express, has
strange hobby. He does not and will
not wear a hat. Not since a boy has
Miller worn any head-covering other
than a short, thick growth Of natural
hair. In the summer, with the hot sun
pouring down upon his uncovered head,
Miller may be seen walking around the
town or at his work, with the utmost
serenity Of manner, as IL he never
minded 1t little bit. In the winter Il
is the same. The mercury may descend
clear to the bulb in the thermometer,
the winds may blow and the snow may
ny, but Miller never minds 1t and stalks
about bare-headed and without an
oVercoat. The rain doesn't feaze him,
either. Nothing bothers this man With
the hobby, as far as the elements are
concerned. Miller attended the New
York State Fair last year, and was an
object of great interest. It was very
hot during the days on which the fair
was held, and the sweltering crowds
tried to keep cool with broad-brimmed
hats, parasols, umbrellas, ETC., and Mil
Ter, with his bare head, seemed to be
the only person on the grounds who did
not suffer from the heat. He gives as
his reason for not wearing hat that
nature provided us with head-cover-
ing, and he says that 1t is foolish for
a person to wear hat or any other
artificial head-covering. "You say you
don't see how can stand it? Look at
the North American Indian. How does
he stand it, or how did he stand 1t be-
fore the entrance Of civilization, which
resulted in some of them adopting hats?
See the natives Of far-off Africa and
other far-off countries, who do not wear
hats. Why, you can even see the fool
ishness of wearing big, heavy, cum
bersome hat by looking at women on
the streets with bonnets as big as a
silver half-dime. They don't need any
hat. Another reason that do not wear
hat is that 1t produces badness. II
the people Of the civilized world wore
hats there would never be such thing
as a bald head, unless brought on by
disease. 1 wouldn't wear a hat, and
should be glad to see every other man
abandon its use 1t might be hard at
first, but they would get used to 1t soon,
and would be pleased with the result"

The United States navy has too many
officers and too few enlisted men. Near
ly every class Of cadets that is gradual
ed from the naval academy at Annapo-
lis provides a supply Of young officers
In excess Of the available vacancies,
and in spite of the most skillful maneu-
Vering some Of the cadets In each class
fail to secure commissions and are dis

A Michigan dispatch says: "a new
species Of grip has appeared in Shia-
wassee county, locally known as
"Trilby." It's symptoms and varied ac-
compartments are severe pain in one or
both sides, sore throat, headache, high
temperature, and difficulty in breathing.
It is no respecter Of persons, but seizes
old and young, prostrating them usually
within a few moments from the first in
dications Of illness. There are 500 cases
Of "Trilby" in owosso, and similar re-
podts come from Bancroft, Morris,
Perry, and other parts Of the country.
AS yet, however, no deaths have been
reported" This all comes from Du
Maurier's hypnotized maiden having
posed in her bare feet and left of her
stockings in some of the recent Trilby
dances.

At one time the Duke Of Wellington's
extreme popularity was rather embar-
RAISING. For instance, on leaving home
each day he was always intercepted by
an affectlonate mob, who insisted on
hosting him on their shoulders and
asking where they should carry him.
1t was not always convenient for him
to say where he was going, so he used
to say: Garry ME home, carry me
home" and so he used to be brought
home half a dozen times a day a few
minutes after lsaying his own door,

BIBLES.

At last our navy has made a cap
ture. The Eleu went out yesterday
and captured a schooner. And it
wasn't loaded to the gunwales with
opium-or even filibusters. Per-
haps in that case the tug would
have been the captured, and not the
capturer. However, as it happened,
the tug caught the schooner which
was loaded down with bibles. And
the crew didn't fight or show any
symptoms of trying to capture any
thing but the, souls of those on
board the tugboat. Instead of f'-
ing cartridge at long range the
crew Of our naval exponent found
that they we're expected to attend a
Salvation Army meeting and in
quire, "What shall we do to be
saved?" instead of .inquiring from
the schooner and it's crew, what
will you do to be savedT from us.
Such as it is, the situation has caused
more humorous remarks in Homo
lulu than any situation since Janu-
ary IL, 1898. Here has our noble
navy, accompanied by portion of
our army, gone out to search for
arms and opium, and brought back
bibles. Sure such ridiculous end
to the wild goose chases we have
seen was never equalled or excelled
in any part of the world. If they
had brought back rum or playing
cards, everyone would have said
like to like. But now we see our
army and navy coming back with
the spoils of war in the shape Of
bibles. Let US hope it will do them
some good.
