National Geographic Society.

One of the meetings of the technical
course of the National Geographic Society
will be held this evening, in the lee
ture hall of Cosmos Club, when DIR. c. Hart
Merriam and Mr.. F. Va Coville will read
papers upon Life of 1.-THE Desert" A few
lantern-slide views will be used to illus
trate the subject. The succeeding lecture
of the popular course will be held next
Friday evening at MetZerott Hall, when
Admiral r. w. Meade, u. S. N, will deliver
lis illustrated lecture, prepared especially
foc the society, upon 1.-THE Caribbean Sea
Tie Mediterranean of the Western World"
Admiral Meade's experience and tempera-
mtnt have both fitted him most admirably
for treating this subject in a way that will
make it intensely interesting, as there are
few, IL any, travellers who have visited as
many of the West Indian islands as he has
and under such favorable conditions, and
at the same time he is one of those officers
who take full advantage of their opportun-
tiles to study the countries that they visit.
He first crossed the iSthmus in 1S49, on his
way to California, from which state he
was appointed to the navy, the first naval
officer, and, indeed, perhaps the first fed
eral official of any kind, to be SO appointed.
Since that time he has cruised in West In
dian waters on board the old frigate Co.
lumbia, and the Saranac the Cyane, and
la ter commanded the Nandala for thirty
nre months there. Finally, Is well
known, he commanded the United States

The trustees of the United Society OF

Among the principal items OF business

the reports of the president, Rev. Francis h.
Clark, d. D., and General Secretary Jonn
Willis Baer. The president noted the found
ing of the society nearly fifteen years ago,
and remarked on its marvellous growth and
TIE expansion of the principles OF The So
ciety
The secretarys report reviewed the state
of the society ard the promising outlook Tor
the Junior societies. The report continues:
Threads have been made, too. it Is also
pleasing to report, in the United States
navy and army: the number of floating So
cieties is one hundred and sixty, including
the societies in the navy yard in Brooklyn,
n. Y, and the marine corps In Washington.
and there are societies in the army; all
these are doing good work, and are making
progress of a defrIte character. The boys
in blue need Christian Endeavor, and will
be better soldiers if enrolled under the ban
ner of the King of kings and Lord of lords.
Last spring, when the new societies i.ere
reporting at the rate of an average of one
hundred a week, it seemed as if the growth
would at some rear day be retarded, that
the progress that was being made could not
be kept up; but God continues to direct its
momentum, and the same average is being
made week after week. Last week 1873 So

NEW WOOD FOR PAVING.
An Australian Product Said to be Sue
cessfuIIy Used Abroad.

From the Chicago Herald
The Australian hardwoods, karri and lar
rah, are being talked of in Chicago for
paving streets. The material is now in
general use in Paris and London. A COM
pany has already been formed in New
York city, and paving with karri wood
blocks is now in progress in 2Oth street
there.
In introducing the new paving material
In America the claim is made for 1t that
1t is the only smooth pavement that is
durable, and that it is superior to asphalt
for streets where heavy traffic Is carried
on, owing to this quality of durability
The wood is very tough, of somewhat the
color of red cedar, and block of 1t has
almost the weight of a block of stone of
equal size.
The karri trees grow in Australia and
no place else in the world. TIE forests
are owned by the Karrl and Jarrah Timber
Company Of Western Australia and the
Iemperley Company are the sole agents
FOR the product. As a material for paw
ing tire wood was introduced in London
IN 1856 by the Improved Wood Paving
company. of which an American, Samuel
Norris of Rhode Island. was the founder

London, and the streets of the English
capital claim distinction as the finest in

THERE WAS NO SECOND VERSE.
Absorbed Mr.. Dash Didn't Know He
Was Hearing the Lords Prayer.

From the New York Herald.
The occasion was one of the semi-musical
Sunday evenings, which we all know we'll
Mrs. Dash had attended from genuine love
for the hostess, but young Mr.. Herbert Dash,
her son, was there only out of filal respect
and an ardent desire to please his mamma.
The host was musical devotee, but made
the unfortunate and familiar mistake of
overra ting his own voice and it's power to
please.
Young Mr.. Dash had done all that the
strictest adherent to good form could ask
He had listened and he had applauded until
finally finding himself tete-a- tete on the sofa
with charming Miss Blank. he yielded to
natural impulses and listened to the music
of her voice rather than to that which came
from the piano. In his own mind he had be-
come convinced that in truth virtue is its
own reward. His consciousness of a duty
well done had pervaded his very soul. Salts
faction beamed from his eyes Miss Blanks
power of repartee kept him constantly on
the alert. He dearly loved a conversation
alist who was witty ir an honest, whole
some way. In their secluded corner he felt
no remore at enjoying the good things the
gods had sent. The group about the niano
| were not disturbed, and the semi-confiden-
tial attitude, consequent upon the subdued
tones, lent an additional charm. All was
peaceful as a summers dream
Suddenly there was q lull. The voice al
the piano ceased. Those near by murmured
their applause. Mr. Dash looked up, paused
a moment in his chat, clapped in the sub
dued fashion appropriate to Sunday night
and exclaimed, Charming! Excellent! NV
dear sir, could you not give us the second
verse;"
Instead of the expected eager response and
the consequent renewal of the music under
cover of which the confidence might also
be renewed, silence fell upon the entire
group. Presently voice arose Herbert

CORRUPTION IS CHARGED.
Contract With San Diego AuthorItfe.
Said to BE by Bribery.

An important action has been begun in
| the United States court at San Diego, Cal,
| which involves a question Of millions of
| dollars worth of property, and, according
| to the complaint filed, lays bare a story of
corruption of municipal officials in that city.
The complainant is the Consolidated Wa
i ter Company, which controls the San Diego
Flume and the San Diego Water compa-
MES, now supplying that city with water.
The defendants E. S. Babcock, the
Southern California Mountain Water Com
pany, the city of San Diego, the common
council, Nat r. Titus, city auditor, and T.
]. IDowelI, city treasurer. The complaint
asks that San Diego be enjoined from con-
tracing with the Southern California
Mountain Water Company for a water sup
ply and distributing system to cost s1,575,-
600.
1t Is alleged that E. s. Babcock acting
for himself and the Mount Tecarte Land
and Water Company, which was succeeded
by the Southern California Mountain Wa
ter Company. entered into a contract
whereby he employed c. E. Mayne to influ-
ence the members of the common council
by bribery and other corrupt means to sup
port the Tecarte proposition to furnish San
Diego a water system for about S1,5oOGoo.
1t is alleged that Mayne, acting for Bah
cock and his company. arranged and agreed
with H. l.. Barrows, w. J. Davis Joseph S.
Bachman, Thomas H. DurkiE and w. H.
Kroahn, then members of the council, to
vote for the desired water plan.
Mayne was indicted by the grand jury
for attempting to bride Spears and Robin
son, but, 1t IS alleged, the Indictment was
| quashed through Babcock's influence.
! Following the recital of the corruption of
the council, an injunction against the con-
tract now favored by the council is asked
because t lie action of joint water commits
sion and of the common council in recon-
mending ard authorizing the making of a
contract with the Southern California
Mountain Water Company was procured
| by fraud corruption and bribery.
