Els Words Verified.

About 26'years ago certain southern
man brought suit against tho South
Carolina railroad for damages to his
property. He lost the case in the supe-
rlor court, but insisted upon carrying
it to the supreme court, where he repre-
scented his own cause. He began his ar
gument by saying whimiscally:
May it please the court, there is an
old French adage which says, "A man
who is his own lawyer hath a fool for a
client -
The next week the supreme court
pronounced its decision, which was adj
verse to the southerner. He was in Au-
eusta at the time, but received the an
nouncement Of his second and final dis
appointment by means Of telegram
sent him by prominent judge, who
was an intimate friend of his.
The telegram read as follows: "Judg-
ment for defendant in error. French

THE DESTRUCTIVE TEREpo.
Piling OF wherves and Railroad Trestlc.
Ruined by 1t.

Tho teredo is the most destructiye
marine Animal we have. Il enters tho
submerged part Of the piling of wharyes
or railroad trcstles and bores into tho
interior. When it penetrates the surface
OF the wood it is about the siZo OF hin,
but increases i'll size, always lengthcn-
ing, but never leaving any part of the
hole 1t bcles until its full mission is
accomplished. In this way it stretches
from the original pin hole entrance far
into the interior of the wood and sweIls
III size to the diameter of large lead
pencil AT the big end are the cutters,
two clam shells that rotate from side to
side and cut smooth, round hole. The
worm sometimes attains the length of
ten inches.
Hundreds of such worms attack the
exposed wood ut the same time. and in
a short time honeycomb it. However
numerous they are, they never interfere
with one another, and no instance is
found where one borer has cut into or
crossed the boring of his neighbor,
though tho partitions left between the
borlngs are sometimes no thicker than
a sheet of paper. Another popularity is
that as the places Of entrance are no
larger than pin heads and tho worms re-
main and do their growing inside, the
wood may be almost entirely consumed
inside, yet the surface appears sound
and unaffected. Suddenly, without tho
slightest warning, the wooden pile gives
way and its fellows follow in short or
der, and the wharf which appeared sub
stantial is wholly ruined.
To combat the teredo many expedients
have been resorted to. One is to sheathe
the piling i'll copper. Another is TO cover
the surface of the wood with broad
headed tacks-tho rust from which
spreads so as to discourage the teredo's
operations. Still another method is to
boil the wood i'll creosote under heavy
steam pressure, so that tho creosote Sal
urates the flbers of the wood.
All these methods are efficacious. and
the creosote process is used with perfect
success in wharf and trcstle building
all along the gulf coust Its cost is the
chief drawback, n single stick of cree
sote timber costing sometimes as much
as 500. Mobile Register
