We have heard some complaint of
grasshoppers Matching out in this To-
cality this spring and the following
may be of interest to those who feared
them. DIR. Groesbeck of Watertown,
s. d., said to the Public Opinion:
speaking of grasshoppers Matching
out this spring, I am reminded of our
experience at Marshall, Mimi, many
years ago. Our crops had been de-
stroyed by the hoppers for three years
in succession and there vas prospect
that we would loose them the fourth
year. The hoppers deposited their
eggs and the farmers felt blue. We
had a good deal such a winter as we
have been having during this winter.
1t was warm during February and the
early part of March; so much SO that
the hoppers hatched out by the mil
lion. The farmers thought it would be
useless to SOW their grain in the spring
and everybody was feeling like the last
rose of summer after it has gone; but
after the young hoppers got to hop
ping around there came along a cold
snap and every hopper turned up his
toes and never revived again."

The silk Cotton Tree.

The most remarkable tree on the island
of New Providence is without {. Iestion
a specimen of the silk cotton (Bombax
ceiba) situated near the postofiice and
prison. Growing from it's trunk are
half dozen buttresslike extensions, as
if to make firm footing for its great
spread of branches of 116 feet. \ little
boy to whom 1 showed a photograph
of it expressed its appearance very we'll
when he said the spaces between the
buttresses would make fine horse stalls.
The pods which grow on the tree con-
tain soft, silky material which the
natives sometimes use for stuffing pill
lows. There are more of these trees, but
none so large or old as this one, and we
heard no estimate of its age. 1t is a
near relative of the monkey tamarind.
Between this bombax and the library
is an avenue of Spanish laurel, a men,
Der of the fig fsmily-untidy and inele-
giant trees. with a growth of roots hang
ing from their branches which never
reach the ground. All these trees bear
fruit, but the figs are small and unfit
for eating. e. G. Cummings in Popu-
lar Science Monthly.

ORIGIN OF The BICYCLE.
II May Be Traced as Far Back the
Seventeenth Century.

Seventeenth Century
In st. Nicholas Frank II. Vlzetelly
has told 1.-THE Story of the Wheel, I"
tracing the evolution of the bicycle.
Mr.. Vizetelly says:
1t has been often said that "to trScs
the origin of the bicycle we must go
back TO the beginning of the century"
and as this las not been denied it is
probably true ] shall try to show that
the bicycle grew from experiments in
the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries,
and that the celerifere, first invented in
1880, was the earliest form of the
safety" of today. The first attempts
20 ride wheels date back as far as the
fifteenth century. True, the machines
then made were crude, clumsy and i'm
perfect, yet they deserve mention, for
they were distinct step in the history
of the wheel. The first of these was
heavy carriage driven by means of ropes
attached to and wound round its axle
tree. To the other end of the ropes q
pole was tied, and this pole was used
as lever in front of the vehicle, and
by this means it was slowly drawn for
ward.
Little was done in the century fol-
lowing, yet in the Memoirs of Henry
Fetherstone" it is told that a Jesuit
missionary named Ricius, who was
travelling down the Ganges. having
missed boat that piled at regular in
tervals between points he was TO visit
in his journey, made up for lost time
by building small carriage propelled
by levers. Because so few details are
told, the truth of the authors account
has been doubted or discredited by
many.
In one CT England's older churches
st. Giles at Stoke Pogis-is a window
Of stained glass on which may be seen
a cherub astride of hobby horse, or
wooden wheel" AT the sides, in sep
arate panels, as if to fix the date of the
design, stand two young men attired in
Puritan dress. ono playing the violin,
the other, with hands in his pockets,
smoking pipe. Is it from this design
that the first thought of the hobby
horse of other days was taken?
Before the Royal Academy of Sciences,
in 1893, Ozanam read a paper describ-
ing vehicle driven by the pedaling of
a footman, who stood III a box behind
and rested his hands on bar level with
his chin attached to the back of an
awning above the rider in the convey
ance This may prove that Fether-
stones account was not untrue. OZa-
nam S vehicle was followed by another,
built OH a somewhat similar plan, by
an Englishman named Ovenden about
1861, for a description of the machine
then appeared in The Universal Maya
zine. The vehicle was said to be "the
best that has hitherto been invented.
The distance covered with ease" by
this rude vehicle is stated to have been
six miles an hour; with peculiar
ezertion,' nine or ten miles. The steer
ing was done with pair of reins.

Is This the Reason Our Actors Like the
Center of the Stage?
Perhaps the fondness of certain actors
TO-DAY for the center of the stage is a
survival from the time when no other
position was adequately lighted. In the
early days of this century, before the
introduction of gas, the footlights con-
sisted of half a dozen or more oil lamps,
and the point where their rays converg-
ed was very properly known as the $50
Gus. " Here all important passages Of
the piece had to be delivered, since else
where the accompanying play of feature
was not assuredly visible. 1t is told
thas when one of kean's admirers COM
plimented him at supper after per-
formance of "Othello,' saying that in
the great scene with Iago he almost
thought the tragedian would strangle
the villain, Kean answered: "Confound
the fellow. He was trying to get me
out of tho focus" Under the electric
light the face of the actor can now be
seen clearly in the most remote corner
of the stage.-"The Conventions of the

Coal formation.

1t will be remarked that the deposits
of anthracite are found in very noun
famous regions. The difference between
this hard and what are called the soft
Goals was explained TO me by tho late
Professor William i. Rogers. When
the contraction of the earth's surface
took place by which the mountain re-
gi0ns of Pennsylvania and few other
parts Of the carboniferous series We're
formed, these mountains Were thrown
up, turned over and twisted in such q
manner as to cause the materials of
vegetable origin of which coal Is formed
TO become cooked, or partly cooked, under
extreme pressure. 1t Is due to that pres
sure and accompanying heat that the
anthracite Goals are hard and virtually
free from bitumen; while, under other
conditions, the bituminous or semibitu-
nlinous Goals are soft and more friable,
containing more bituminous element.
In some other parts of the earth's sur
face where coal is found the so called
brown Goals and lignites have not been
subjected to the measure Of heat under
pressure sufficient TO convert them into
true coal. Edward Atkinson in Cen
