SOUTHERN GLEANiNGS.
A Florida Gcyser.

Passengers on the east-bound train of the Florida Central x Peninsular railroad witnessed phenomenal spec tacle as the train approached the sinks" about 2 miles from Ellaville, Fla.
 The sinks" says a dispatch describing the event, are not unknown in different parts of Florida, being hollow places In the earth of various sizes, somewhat resembling the dry bed Of lake, but deeper, and often showing caves in their sides and subterranean passages running from their bottom. They generally have water In them only during the rainy sea- son, from July to November.
 As the train approached one Of these sinks about daybreak the engineer noticed water flowing from 1t, and stopped the locomotive He was none too quick, for minute or two later an immense volume of water rose to a distance of 10 or 70 feet. roaring and seething like geyser This lasted for fully five min- utes and the train hands and passengers looked on with awe and terror. Then the col umn substded, but the overflow had become raging torrent and washed away 30 feet of the railroad embankment, leaving the tracks or feet under water. The passen- gers had to be transferred to the other side on temporary bridge, and were delayed eight hours in reaching Jacksonville. Tho only ex- planation of tho phenomenon Is that this sink is connected by subterranean passages with branch Of the Suwanee river, which was at the time above it's natural banks, owing to heavy rains, and that by some peculiar pressure the water was forced up through the sink into a high column.

Relic of the ConfederacY.

Hon. Andrew J. Cobb, of Atlanta, Ga., has one of the most interesting relics of the confederacy. His father, Gen. Howell Cobb, was president of the provisional congress that met in Mont gomery, Ala, to frame the constitution of the confederacy, and when all the business had been finished it became his duty to sign the constitution as president of the assembly. This he did with an elegant gold pen, which was used only for that purpose, and then laid back in its case. Prof. Cobb has that pen now. It has never been dis turbed since the hand of Gen Cobb laid it in its case, and the ink used can be seen where it has dried upon the pen.

 CONCERNING WOMEN.
HOW BAD HABITS ARE FORMED.

The Ne1o Yo,t Tribune says: "The habit of taking headache powders is increasing to an alarming extent among a great number of wo- men throughout the country. These powders as their name indicates. are claimed by the manu- facturers to be positive and speedy cure for any form of headache. In many cases their chief ingredient is morphine, opium, cocaine or some other equally injurious drug having tendency to deaden pain. The habit of taking them is easily formed, but almost impossible to shake off Women usually begin taking them to re- leve raging headache and soon resort to the powder to alleviate any little pain or ache they may be subjected to- and finally like the nor phine or opium fend, get into the habit of taking them regularly, imagining that they are i'll pain if they happen to miss their regular dose"
 In nine cases out of ten the trouble is in the stomach and liver. Take simple laxative and liver tonic and remove the offending matter which deranges the stomach and causes the headache.
