A Gold Mining Story.

At Ballarat, Australia, ruined gold
miner once committed suicide in
dramatic manner. During the time
of the gold rush a certain deserted
claim was for years held sacred, and
the tools left strewn about the wind
lass were left to rust away untouched.
A party of varsity men, old school
fellows, and of gentle birth, had sunk
their shaft there and worked without
success until all their money was
spent.
One evening, one of them, at work
at the bottom of the shaft, shouted:
"Haul up, boys, the time has come at
lastw They hauled up, and when it
came to the top they found their com
rade's lifeless body hanging from the
chain. He had detached the bucket,
tied a moose about his neck, fastened
the moose to the chain, and was hanged
by his dearest friends.
The party had been much liked and
respected by the other miners, who
would readily have subscribed 1000
ounces of gold dust to give them a
fresh start, but ere the dawn of the
next day the whole party had disap-
peared, leaving their claim in the same
state as it lay at the time of tlio
tragedy.-Weekly Telegraph

DR.. David Starr Jordan, chief Of
the American Commission to investi-
gate the seal fisheries of Bering Sea,
las just returned from those waters,
and his report confirms the predic.
lions that were made a year ago with
reference to the effects of pelagic fish
ing upon the seal herds. The animals
on the breeding grounds, he says,
have decreased fifteen per cent. in
number, and those in the hunting
grounds have decreased thirty-three
per cent. in the last twelve months, all
because of the destructive methods
employed by lawless fishermen. The
decrease, he argues, will be still
greater during The present year, and
even if pelagic fishing were totally
suppressed this season, he believes
that the shrinkage in numbers would
continue until 1900 because of the de-
structive work which has already been
done among the infant seals. These
statements fully confirm the report
made last year by the American Com.
mission, and they emphasize the con.
tention, so strenuously urged by this
Government that unless more effective
measures for protecting the seals are
speedily provided the herds ar,
doomed to total extinction.

SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL.

Plants grow more between A and 6
o. m. than at any other time Of day.
Professor T.. G. Pickering, Of the
Harvard Observatory, announces the
discovery of 142 new double stars in
the Southern skies.
The speculative astronomers are now
arguing that the moon is in the shape
Of plumb bob, and that the large end
is always towards the earth.
The teeth of insectivora are sharp
and pointed and so disposed that they
keep each other sharp by wearing
against each other instead of coming in
direct contact.
Evidence of the complexity of cathode
rays is found by M. H. Deslandres in
the fact that when a ray is turned
aside by a neighboring body it is di-
vided into several unequally deviated
rays.
Anthropologists have ascertained
that the Andaman islanders, the small
est race of people in the world, aver
age less than four feet in height, while
a few of them weigh more than seven
ty-six pounds.
The fruit-eating bats do not live on
insects, nor attack animals and suck
blood, as do the vampires. The YAM
pire is a small bat, with exceedingly
sharp front teeth, making a slit in the
sleeper's leg and sucking the blood.
They are seldom dangerous to human
beings, but are to cattle.
When you pinch your finger you
think you feel pain the very same in
slant, but really the hurt and the pain
are not quite simultaneous, although
they seem to be so. If a person had an
arm long enough to reach the sun, it
would be 132 years before he would
feel the pain of the burn.
The depth to which the suns rays
penetrate water has been recently de-
termined by the aid of photography
1t has been found that at a depth of
533 feet the darkness was, to all intents
and purposes, the same as that on
clear but moonless night Sensitive
plates exposed at this depth for a con-
siderable length of time give no evil
dence Of light action.
1t has been known for some time
that red hot iron is pervious to carbon
dioxide. NJ. Grehant has found by
experiment that the carbon dioxide
does not only freely pass through the
iron, but is decomposed, carbon mon
oxide being set free. This may ac-
count for some of the accidents which
the monoxide has caused. Rooms must
not be heated by red hot iron stove.

Emperor Williams ELUSIVE speeches
in Russia contained one passage which
has set everybody wondering what he
could have meant, states the New York
Post. He spoke Of some mysterious
"disturber of the general peace,
against whom or which William was
determined to take a firm stand. He
was not afraid of it, The malign in
fuence, or Nation, or whatever it was,
had no chance of succeeding against
his resolute purpose to keep the peace,
even if he had to kill 100, 900 men to
do it. But which is the wicked, war
like country which the good and peace
loving William, armed to the teeth, had
thus to rebuke? Is it England? Is
it France? Some able journalists
champion one view, some another.

In speaking of the unimportant place
which women have occupied in the
world Of affairs in years past and gone,
a well-informed and observant woman
was recently heard to remark that the
advancement of women in lines of
business and practical affairs can be
traced by noting the evolution in
pockets. Time was, and is not wholly
past, either, when it was not deemed
proper for q woman to have any sort
of receptacle about her gown in which
to carry the various traps which mark
an independent career. As ciyiliza-
ton advanced women gradually in
sisted on at least one pocket, even if
it was hidden and wellnigh inaccessi-
BILE. An ordinary mans suit has ff-
teen pockets, Of all sizes and in every
conceivable place, and is it any won
der that. with the wide latitude al
lowed III that particular direction, men
have taken similar freedom in other
lines and refuse to be bound by con-
ventionalities?
