The Cuban insurrectionists are de-
termined that the planter shall not
grind his sugar cane while the war
is on, and if he attempts to do 1t his
plantation is to be burned to the
ground. The idea is to paralyze
trade, show the power they WELD,
and perhaps secure the intervention
of a strong power. Under any cir
cumstances it means ruin to most OF
the planters, whose crops are now
ripe for cutting and very combusti-
BILE.
But the interesting part is the me-
thod the Cubans are said to have
adopted which is distinctly novel. A
small piece of phosphorus coated
with wax is fastened to a snakes tail,
and the creature left loose to make
it's way among the cane, The sun
melts the wax and ignites the phos-
phorus, and the business is done.
Military protection or other efforts
are claimed to be unavailing in the
faceof such a formidable foe.-Popu.

About Soap That Floats.

Soap which T" floats y is being con-
stantly paraded for its excellence,
but if grocer attempted to sell su-
gar on the ground of its having the
same property he would soon lose
his customers. You can try this and
see how you like it. Take some
Jumps of sugar, and dip them for a
moment into a weak collodion solu-
ton, such as photographers use.
Then expose them to the air for a
few days, so that all the ether in the
mixture will evaporate, and leave
only the thin envelope of collodion
behind. You can now serve them
to your friends for their iced tea, and
they will vainly try to keep the
Jumps under by pushing them down
with spoon, but they will bob uI
serenely after every tap.
The real sugar is melted, and only
the envelope of collOdion remains,
which filed the interstices of the
Jumps. Hence this ghost being much
lighter than the sugar floats. II
you take it up in your fingers and
give it a gentle squeeze it collapses
and leaves only a sticky mass.
To be perfectly proportional it is
claimed that man should weigh
twenty-eight pounds to every foot
of his height.
The sun, if hollow, would hold
300, 900 earth globes,and an eye cap
able of hourly viewing 10, 900 square
miles would require $4,000 years tc
see all its surface.
