Male and Female Oaks.

Mr.. Knight, the eminent English bot
an;st, has made some curious and inter-
esting Investigations on the production
of flowers of different sex in the various
species Of the oak tree. He shows that
as rule that species of tree bears the
male and female flowers on separate in
dividuals, but that these different :ndi-
viduals may be made to produce flowers
Of either sex at will. In forcing the fe-
male oak to produce male flowers, and
vice versa, Mr.. knight employed light
and hest, regulating the supply Of both
to suit himself and according to the end
in view. This remarkable series Of ex-
periments proved that, II the heat was
excessive as compared with the light,
male flowers only appeared. On tie
other hand, if the light was excessive
aud the temperature comparatively
low, nothing but female flowers were
produced. In other species Of trees
which bear the male and female flowers
on seperate individuals the experiments
Of the botanist were not 20 conclusive
- IN tie case Of the oaks. However. It
u believed that these Investigations will
finally led to the conclusion that in
the unajority Of trees and plaAt1 the
onltivaAor will be able to ppoduce sexes

NEW YoRK's FOOD SUPPLY.
Enough Always ON Hand to Withstand
FOuf-M0nth's Siege.

GOuH-mO0Cn'O SIEGE
II the city of New York and thu.
nighborhood district were to be besicge.:
or in some other way entirely cut o1r
from the outside world, and Therefore
deprived of the food supplies which il
normal times come IN daily in large
quantities, how long would it be befor,.
the pinch of hunger would be felt:
That il a very hard question to answer,
for the reason that there are such in
equalities of purchasing capacity in
New York society that some go hungry
in times Of greatest prosperity for lack
Of means, while the great majority ea,
more than is good for them. Undoubt-
edly the pumber Of those who alway.s
go hungry would be increased after two
Or three days OF siege. and then day
by day this number would Increase un-
til the public authorities would frcl
compelled to take possession of the food
supplies and distribute them among
the people. With the exception Of milk
and some other things the supply Of
meat, poultry, hardy vegetables and
fruits would last for two months at the
present rate Of consumption. II all the
supplies were taken charge Of at the
beginning Of : iiege and this could
easily be. done food within New
York could be made to last for four
months at least, The sieee Of Paris

he will hear It only family, and in ore
ear, because one Of the tunnels being
turned away from the sound the tube
opposite does not operate. He then
turns the indicator in the direction
from which the sound appears to come,
and when the funnel is pointed directly
at the sound it passes through the fun
mel and out of the other, putting both
tubes in operation. and the operator
hears the sound distinctly, and in beth
ears at once. He then glances at the IN
dicator, and the point on the teil-tale
at which it rests gives the exact bear
irsg of the sound.
In the case of the Gate City, the box
was placed on the foremast, and the
operating station was on the forecastle
deck. There was 30 much noise there,
caused by the hands moving about ana
the breaking of the seas against the
stem Of the vessel, that the sounds came
in a confused way, and although bear
ings could be better taken than by the
ear alone, it is thought that the opera
ton of the instrument can be much i'm
proved. On the next trip it will be
placed on the jigger mast, and the OPP
Grating station will be in the women's
steerage, where it will be quieter. The
arrangement is in use on the OLD
Dominion steamers, and one or two
other lines, and has been found to
work finely. Whistling buoys and light
whistles can be much better located.
and can also be heard to a much great
er distance than with the ear alone

A curions scare ran through the

which it took the officials some time to
understand. The story was that Queen
Victoria wanted five children's heads
from each village. The Bengal coolies
went frantic, asking for axes and
knives to defend their families; fac
tories were fortified, watch being kept
all night, and ID soIAe villages all the
Inhabitants hid themselves The
heads, they believed, were wanted to

Formation Of the Acorn.

The male flowers of the oak are gath
cred in distant clusters round a long,
swaying stalk; they approach much
r,earer to the conventional idea of
flower individually. Instead of being
mere aggregation of anthers or pollen
cells &C simple scales, those of the oak
are possessed of distinct starlike, hairy
calyces, each marked off into six or
seven lobes, and containing ten slender
stamens, with two-celled anthers. Then
the female flowers, which are usually
two or three, near each other, but
not connected, consist each of an ovary.
with three short-eurved styles, and in
vested by calyx that adheres closely
to it and becomes the husk and shell of
the acorn The whole, except the
styles, is held in a cup formed Of many
small overlapping scales, which after
ward lose their individuality and shrink
into mere roughness on the outside of
the cup that holds the acorn. For only
one of the six ovules contained in the
ovary develops into an acorn (seed or
corn Of the &C, or oak. k.)-Science.

HE WAS MISTAKEN.

The Little Mans Name Was Not Rambs.
Nor Did He Hall from sandusky.
All the passengers in the car noticed
that the big man on the left of the rear
door was looking fixedly at the small
man opposite, and by and by the small
man himself noticed the same thing.
After an embarrassing interval of three
minutes he observed:
well, what is it?"
Excuse me, sir, /" replied the big man;
"but your face seems familiar"
"Yes."
Though I can't place it."
.No?"
''1s your name Rambo?'
'No, sir"
II thought it was. Didn't you used
to live in Sanlusky, O.T'
mo, sir; never was in Sandusky in
my life."
'.Wasn't there in 1890. eh?"
mo, sir"
That's queer. Just the minute I got
sight of you was sure you was Rambo,
of Sandrsky. II you are"
''But I'm not!" interrupted the small
man. II never heard OF Rambo and was
never in Sanlusky."
'sWen, that settles it, / suppose" said
the big man, az he looked out of the
window and back again; "but it you
hadn't said so should have continued
to 5hink you were the man."
"Ard what of it?" retorted the small
man, flushing up over it.
"Oh, nothing much. He eloped with
ms wife from Sandusky in 1890, and I
heard they were living in Detroit. If
YOU were Rambo I was going to ask
how"
"If you'll get of the car I'll lick you
and Rambo and Bambo and Hoodoo
and all the rest of the gang put to-
yether!" shouted the small man, as he
got up and went out.
''No-oh, mol" replied the big man.
s'No, there il no call to fight. If you
are not Rambo, beg your pardon.
Your face had familiar look, and ! just
thought I'd,ask it,"
Dut the small man hoped of the car
and went his way, and the big man
heaved q sigh and looked around and
said:

AN EMBARRASSING MISTAKE.

AN -" "0<AuUbN0otN0 "t0 %NGs.
The Young lGaa Thought She was q
BeggaF.
He was very busy, no doubt, ponder
ing some deep subject. He strobe along
with his hat we'll over his brow and his
eyes fixed upon the ground. He had
been accosted several times in the block
by beggars and had his train of thought
interrupted by stopping to fling them
a coin.
He was vaguely aware that a figure
had stopped in front of him and he said,
rather testify:
II haven't any change"
The gasp of breath which caused him
to look up produced an exclamation
from his lordship. Standing before him
was a fairer4 vision than is usually be-
held in Wall street. She was q very
charming young woman, wearing the
very choicest of grass cloth gowns,
under which cleaned a dark-rose silk.
She held her pretty parasol well away
from her face as she looked haughtily
at him, and her cheeks grew crimson
under her veil, until they rivaled the
American Beauty rose she wore at her
belt.
He tried to apologize, but before he
could summon the proper words she
turned to a man near, who looked as if
he would be willing to spend his life in
her service, and asked him the way to
her lawyers Office. She evidently was
IN a part of New York new to her, and
there was not messenger boy or po-
liceman in sight.
With glance of triumph at the first
,ne he gave her the necessary directions.
prolonging them as much as he dared
that he might look intc the beautiful
eyes upturned to his own.
He raised his hat when she said, with
a bewitcning smile: "Thank you so
much," and disappeared in the crowd.
"Better look before you speak, old
fellow" he said to the other one.
They were both en- ronte to the law
yers' club for luncheon, and though it
cost him a couple of bottles Of wine to
keep the story quiet, it got out some
how, and one only has to say, in high,
mock feminine voice: "Kind sir, can
: you tell me the way" to tease that ris-
ing young lawyer. who has mentally
vowed to sean very carefully every one
who approaches him in futuresbefo
he takes it for granted il is q beggar.-

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

-Unmanufactured wool was last
year sent abroad to the amount OF A..
279, ,1O9 pounds, valued at $4S4, ,463.
Dried apples were in demand last
year in Europe, 7,065,9 pounds Of the
American product going there, for
which $461, ,214 was returned to this
country.
Maine may have to provide: this
years crop of "sardines," as the French
sardine box solderers have gone on
strike just as the fishing season opened.
They object to the employment of wom-
en- and of labor-saving machinery.
Plans are well under way for the

Of New York state, for which the people
voted at the last election by a majority

work will be done in the next two or
three years.
1t is said that DIR. Max Wolf, of
Heidelberg, who has discovered num-
ber of asteroids, has never directly seen

on which the planets appear as short
lines, owing to their motion, while stars
are shown as points.
"A serious source of loss of the pre-
cious metals is in the attrition of coins.
II is estimated that gold coin of the
value of ten dollars will lose from one
to three grains of its weight in five
years, and that silver dollar will lose
ten per cent. of it's weight in the same
time. This loss, of course, is irretriev-
able.
Many insects can fly faster than
birds. The common house fly can or
dinarily fly 25 feet second. But when
it is alarmed it has been found that it
can increase it's rate of speed to over
16O feet per second. If it could con-
tinue such rapid flight for a mile in n
straight line it would cover that dis
tance in exactly 80 seconds.

by the discovery of the fouratomic
character of carbon established the
basis for the modern theory of chem

ing this discovery and Kekule's later
PAPER on the theory of benzole are the
most important speculative works in
chemistry of this generation.
