To Harness the Ocean.

It has been matter Of observation
these many years that the ocean could
do any amount Of work if only a hari
ness could be devised that it would
work in. The tides rise and fall, but
it is only in rare cases that tide water
turns wheel. The waves are. never
at rest, and motion is force, but the
motion OF the waves is rarely put to
harder work than blowing horn or
ringing q bell or buoy. At this
time, when the state Of business tayors
all sorts OF new industrial ventures, u
is interesting to notice the appearance
of two schemes for making the OCEAN
furnish power for use ashore. Onels
an invention patented on January 81.
which aspires to turn the tides to ac1
count as power for driving water
wheels, running electric motors, and

ratus, and the general idea is to ELL.
the floating reservoirs from the pond
at low tide, and get power as long as
the tide continues to ebb from the
waters thus stored. The other scheme
for the utilization of waye-motion proji
vides for o collection of buoys
anchored off shore, which are to com,
press air which is to be stored in g
reservoir and used to run engines:
Some large buoys are making now fof
use in testing this plan, and it is am
nounced that the device is to have an
elaborate trial next summer on the
south shore of Long Island. Both OF
these schemes are said to have enough
capital behind them to make thor;

CHARACTER OF THE TAGALES: =
Not Incapable Of Adopting Our M oderu
Civilization.

A writer in the Neuesten Mach riche'
ten, Munich, describes the Taga
the dominant rece in the PhilippiI
in the main as follows:
They are not incapable Of adortil
civilization in the modern sense,
they are very mixed race. The ad!
mixture Of Chinese bloc d has produced
very good results. The number Of
nestizos whose father was white is
also very large, and it is these descend,
ants Of the Spaniards who fight the
battle Of freedom. Nor are the ,ragales
themselves without civilization. They
have shown much natural strength,
have advanced from their original
home in central Luzon to every part.
OF tho Philippines and assimilated
many Malay tribes. Two enemies
they have, which are more dangerous
than either the Spaniard or the Amerl-.
cans. They are indolent and their
morals are lax. The Spaniards have
done much to civilize them, but to
this day many return to the life OF a
hunter after some years. residence in
towns and villages. They were.I
nevertheless, in pretty advanced
state Of civilization when the. Span
iards came. This is easy to see-in the
Igorrotos, kindred race, which rei
mains heather to this day. The
Igorrotos live in fine villages OF welf<
built houses, and their agricultural
system is really worthy of admiration
The Tagales themselves are ardent
Catholics, but they retain many
heather customs. Their hignesS a:s!ss'
is to get a son into the church, but
they do not observe celibacy very
strictly. Many Of the mestizos,
Chinese as we'll as white, are wealthy
men, and as these lead in the move;
ment for independence, it will be diff:
fcult to conquer the islands. :

To such an extent has the utilization
Of by-products been carried in the
stockyaras Of Chicago that now the
only waste in a steer is The gastric
juice, and what was formerly ihe waste
IS now worth more than tie meat.
The horns go into knife handles or
backs for combs. The white hoots axe

the black hoofs become handles for

dozen other things, the soEc internal
parts being resolved into !ellics and

From the bones are produced piano

ton whalebone are made from the
sinews. The clarified blood is taken
by the sugar retiners, while the rest OF

The iltestines serve as castings for
sausage, and the bladders as cases ioc

part OF the animal, but when steamed,
dried and washed it becomes curled
hair that sells readily. As a result OF
this care and economy, the financial
returns from steer, rs estimated by
one ii the business, are: From the
meats and compounds Of meat, $40;
from The hide, hair. horns and hooss,

bones, &I3; from all othes waste, S15,
or SO received from the by-products.
Bnt not alone in the stockyards are
by-prolucts carefully hnsbanded.
Many large industrial Corporations
employ chemists to search for by
products with view to increased pro-
fits and reduced waste. The produc-
ton OF alcohol from waste n.olasses
is well known, aud the recent ,onver-
sion Of rig-iron Stag into cement las
been noted. TO these may BE- added
tiling made from crushed tree bark,
acids from plum and peach pits, jellies
and an inferior kind of champagne
from apple cores, prussiate Of po:a b
from castaway shoes, carbonic acid gas
generated in the processes Of beer
making, and window weights from the
iron recovered from tin cans.
More notable, perhaps, are some
products from corn. Indian maize
contains kernel in which there is
yellow germ. Under chemical treat
ment this germ yields an oil which,
when refined, is competitor with
cotton seed oil in the substitution for
olive oil, and which may be vulcanized
and made to do duty as rubber. What
are called rubber boots and shoes are
being made from this imitation rubber
at cost far below that Of the genuine

A Remarkable Murder in Eneland.

Biddenden, a quiet country village
in Kent, was recently. the scene OF q
remarkable murder. The rector's
daughter, middle-aged spinster, had
quarrelled with several parishioners
and wrote to six of them to meet her
at church on certain Sunday, as she
wished to make up. It happened to
rain, so that cnly one of the persons

woman invited him into the Testry and
asked the curate to be a witness to the
reconciliation. She then drew.a re-
volver aud shot the teacher dead. She
had several spare cartridges on her
person, so that it is inferred that she
had intended to shoot all the persons
to whom she had written. She was
perfectly calm after her act and has.
kept silent about it.-NeV York s11i

EGGS FOR THE WHITE HOUSE.
Virginia Hens That Have Monopoly IL
Supplying Them.

Virginia Hens That Have Monopoly IN
Supplying Them.
For eight years Mr.. Hanson Borden,
a Virginia farmer, has supplied the
White House at Washington with
eggs, beginning when General Harri-
son was chief magistrate. Mr.. Bor-
dents eggs go exclusively to the presi-
den's table. He is depended upon to
meet all demands from the White
House.
Mr.. Borden usually ships two crates
a week, each crate containing thirty
dozen eggs. Eight crates sis the
largest number he ever shipped in one
week. Each egg is personally in
s2ectcd by him before; being placed in
the White House crate, aud only the
largest and choicest are selected.
Every one receives vinegar bath aud
tag bearing the shippers name. The
eggs are kept fresh until shipment by
being put in room OF low tempera-
turc.
Ar. Borden's farm is situated five
miles northwest of Woodstock. A
long row of concrete one story houses,
close by little stream that has it's
source near the mountain few miles
away, attract ones attention. These
are the henhouses-a dozen of them
each with room ten by sixteen feet.
Accommodations for one hundred
chickens are provided in each room.
The ceilings are high for henhouses,
and there is an inviting air of cleanli-
ness about them. Each house has
separate yard, though Mr.. Borden
gives the chickens the run of his farm.
He feeds them three times daily, fresh
meat and pulverized bone forming an
important part of their menu.
''How did I come to go into the
chicken business, you ask sad Mr.
Borden. 'It was about thirteen years
ago, when wheat began to receds from
the dollar mark. I determined to make
my wheat yield a dollar a bushel, and
I chose the hen to help me. She has
done her part nobly, and my books
will show that I get more than a dol
lar for my wheat year il and year out.
"When began the egg business, l
determined to place my eggs on the
presidents board. It took me five
years to dc if. Though presidents
change. | hold my contract, and I
think that is an evidence that I give
satisfaction.
''The number OF hens 1 keep ranges
from eight to twelve hundred, and !
add three hundred pullets annually. I
find the various strains of leghorns,
with spriakling of red-tops,' the
best layers I give little attention to
fancy varieties, the old reliable valley
chickens serving my purpose BETTER
than I anticipated when I went into
the business.

A Poison Bottle Wanted.

The Chemist and Dru.9sist,.we learo,
has a; actually offered a ciS ea:pi:iza
sfor a good tell-taie roison9bott!e, and
has received many valuable sugges-
tions in reply. One of them is thas
the neck should be at right angles to
the body OF the bottle, instead ofin a
line with it. This idea also reaches
us from another quarter Another, OF
a more fanciful kind, is that the user
81 uld be warned off by a death )
head and cross-bones Of the poison
label. But the main thing is the ap-
peal to other senses than that Of sight.
The bottle must be able to signal
''poison' in the darkness. One in
genious person, as we shovel the
other day, proposed TO appeal to the
sense OF hearing by means Of a sort
of musical cork. The senses of taste
and smell, Of course, are out Of the
question. The sense of touch remains,
and this or nothing can be our safe
guard. This sense may be simulated
By differences of form in the bottle or
by differences of texture. One COM
petitor for the prize suggests strips Of
sandpaper pasted on the sides. But
while he is about it, why not have the
roughness in the texture Of the bottle
itself, and combine the two safeguards
in triangular bottle with ''toothed'
edges? If anything further is wanted,
put the neck at right angles, as afore'
said. Any person who persisted in
the abuse Of the bottle in spite OF
these precautions ought to be brought
under the habitual inebriates act. -
