Republic, where for one State loans are
difficult to obtain. The support of the
standing armies will be obviated and
money saved by economical administra.
ton of local governments All this will
tend to make Central America in time an
important government, and without
union none of the States, separately, can
hope for commercial success or internal
peace.
What effect the formation of the pres
ent union can or will have on the Mica
raguan canal has been made clear by
Minister Rodriguez. 1t is claimed that
it will in no wise effect the present atti-
tudc of Nicaragua toward the canal or
the cession granted to the American COM
pany. In receiving the minister some
few weeks ago Mr.. Cleveland took occa-
sion to remark that the existence OF the
Greater Republic would not be recognized
by the United States rs abrogating any
treaties, conventions or arrangements
with any of the republics, and while not
so stated, he strongly implied that this
country would not recognize the right
OF the Greater Republic TO infringe III
any way ON the canal cession. Minister
Rodriguez has emphasized the friendli-
ness of all three governments to the canal
project. All want it, but under terms
considered fair and equitable to Central
America

COCOONS THAT JUMP.

The curious movements of jumping
beans have lately attracted some atten-
ton, though to style the spasmodic
jerks Of the beans jumps is to court
disappointment. Some jumping CO.
coons, F." described by DR.. D. Sharp in
The Entomologist were, however, re-
Invariably good athletes, for they could
spring out of small vessel, such as a
tumbler, in which they were placed.
These cocoons were from South Africa,
but i'll spite of their exceptional gym
nastic efficiency DR.. Sharp hardened his
heart and sacrificed them upon the altar
of science, i'll the hope of discovering
something unusual that would explain
the powers of jumping.
The cocoons looked like piece of
oval pottery, about millimeters long,
and having n rough surface. In each of
tho two Investigated pupa was found
The two were similar in every respect,
and they no doubt belonged to the Larvae
that made the cocoons. .'Ths little
pupa, says DR.. Sharp, is shut up in
remarkably hard, thick cocoon, and it
has 10 get out. Nature has not provided
it with caustic potash for the purpose,
but has endowed it with mechanism
of complex perfection to accomplish this
little object On the front of tho head
it has Il sharp, chisel edge, and with
this it has to cut through the pottery,
contracting itself to the utmost i'll tho
posterior part of the cocoon and retain
ing itself i'll this position by the hooks
on the mobile part of the body. 1t is II
condition Of elastic tension in conse-
quence of the other side Of the body be-
ing so differently formed and immobile.
Therefore, releasing the hold of the
hooks, the pupa is discharged forward,
and the chisel piece strikes tho front
part of the cocoon. Repeating this an
enormous number Of times, Il circle may
he gradually inscribed on the inside of
the far end OF the COCOON, which gives
way when sufficiently weakened ana
the insect becomes free. In both the
specimens the inside of tho COCOON il
about half cut through. Eithor this is
done rs the result of prolonged series
of WriggleS or of shocks such as | have
described. Ii is by no means improbable
that the early part of the performance is
carving the groove by wriggling, the
latter part knocking it off by jumping
against it," The pppa is thus a most
interesting one to oiftomologists. The
order of insects TO which it belongs ap-
pears to be somewhat uncertain, but Dr.
Sharp thinks it will prove to be an
anomalous lepidopterous insect allied to
trichoptera, and possibly somewhere
near to adela.

CENTRAL AMERICAN UNION.

The organization of Honduras, Mica
ragua and Salvador into the Greater Re-
public OF Central America is a'step in the
right direction of union that promises
important results to the petty govern
ments between Mexico and South Amer

and Costa Rico will La added to the COM

The Importance OF the steps already
taken has been recognized in this coun-
try, and the bearing OF it on the peace
and progress Of Central America is of
the utmost CONSCIENCE. TO the United
States the compact means the extension
of trade relations, for it will be more
practicable to treat with one government
representing all the little states than
with each one, as has been the custom.
1t will mean that one minister will Ac..ac-

Where Divorces Are pln,eult.

The divorce laws of Iceland form a
guarantee for the best protection Of
women against the caprices of "change-
full man." says Ladies' Home Compan-
ion. If for any reason husband and wife
cannot live harmoniously together aud
decide to separate. they go before q
clergyman, who uses every power OF
logic and persuasion to induce them to
reconsider their determination. Failing
in this, they are granted letter of sep
aration, and each goes his or her own
way. If there is only Que child, this
goes to the mother; if more than one,
they are equally divided, unless one of
the parents is regarded as unfit to train
them, in which case they are oil given
to the other. After they have lived
apart for three years and are still in
clined to remain separated the injured
party may apply for divorce, and if
the application is based on Scriptural
grounds it will be granted. leaving each
free to marry again. The fact that there
is no 'social evil" on the island shows
the high moral status of the women.

MUD BATHS.
How tho NIushli.se Mixture Is Prepared
For the Patients.


"Tho hot springs Of Now Mexico"
says Il gentleman from Las Vegas, "aro
OH tho Santa Fe railroad, six miles from
Las Vegas, and they arc situated in
basin about 80 acres in extent, sur
rounded on all sides by hills rising to
height of from 800 to 400 feet, shielding
tho place from wind and sand storms.
Tho mud baths which are famous for
their curative effects arc only to be had
in two places i'll the world-hore and mt
Carlsbad, Germany-and it has boon
shown that the mud found at the hot
springs of New Mexico and which is
used in giving tho baths is of the same
chemical composition as that of Oarls-
bad. 1t is very interesting to note the
formation Of this mud or peat. 1t is
formed by the vegetation which has
been washed down from the hills prob
ably century ago, and which. settling
among the rocks, has become decomposed
and formed into a substance which Is
practically carbon impregnated with
salts, magnesia, soda, lithia and various
other ingredients.
"This peat is gathered from tho rocks,
dried and put through fine sieve in or
der to remove the silioates, and after
this treatment it is as soft as flour. 1t
is then taken to the mixing room, where
it is put in largo tubs and the water
from the hot springs mixed with it un-
til it is of about the consistency of mush.
The mud is now ready for use, and it is
taken into the bathing room, where the
patient is placed i'll Il tub and covered,
with tho exception of the head, and al
lowed to remain in the mud for from 10
to 80 minutes. The application Of the
mud has an effect similar to a mild
poultice and draws tho impurities from
the body through tho pores of the skin.
The patient is then removed from the
bath, placed upon slab and submitted
to vigorous rubbing, the chemical
composition of the mud being such that
it can be rubbed from tho body with a
dry towel, leaving tho flesh in a clean
condition. A great many people come
to this place to take the mud bath treat
menb and some marvellous cures are
effected. In one instance remember to
have seen man who was all drawn up
with rheumatism, and after two weeks
Of this treatment he had been relieved
The treatment is especially beneficial to
persons afflicted with neuralgia, rheu-
matism and skin diseases. "-Denver

Sooner or later Great Britain and the
Dutch Republic of South Africa will
come to blows, and what the final result
will be requires no prophet to foretell.
The Beers will no doubt fight bravely,
and the incorporation of their country as
a part of the British possessions of South
Africa will cost much in blood and treas
ure; but they are suffering from severe
case of national big head" and will not
rest satisfied until it has been materially
