Glass Refuse Makes Good Bricks.

An important discovery is said to have
been made by DR. Ormandy of ST. Hell

ducing bricks of Il commercially valuable
character from the waste heaps at glass
making establishments. This refuse, Of
which millions OF tons have accumulated,
consists mainly Of spent sand, minute
Particles of glass and about 3 per cent
Of iron from the various processes; and
it has hitherto been considered that the

material in the manufacture of bricks.

TO EVEN THE SEXES.
New Solution of the Problem of Get
ting Girls to the Colonies.

Many are the movements for establish
ing closer relations between Great Brit
ain and her colonies that have been
started in London Snce the outhurst Of
the imperial spirit caused by the war in
South Africa. but about the most inter-
esting of them all. says the San Fran
cisco Call, is one for promoting an emf

try 10 Canada, Australia and South At
RIGA.
Throughout the colonies there is no
ia BILE majority of men over women
while in Great Britain and especially in
London there are far more women than
men. Reformers who have plenty of
time to take thought about the welfare
Of the world regard the existing condi
tiOn of things i'll that respect rs prejudi-
cial to the cid country and to the colo
MES, to men and to women. They have
therefore started a movement to bring
about what they call sex equilibrium, y
and are urging it forward with a good
deal Of enthusiasm and faith.
The British government has tried in
various ways to induce an emigration of
women to the colonies, but has failed

1t is said there are upwards of 100000

pire the defect of having too many men
at the eXtremitics and too many women
at the capital.
After profoundly considering the prob
lem the reformers have come to the con-
clusion that the reason the girls are not
willing to accept governmental assistance
and 20 to the colonies is because they
have not been properly introduced to the
young men who live out there. The Brit
iSh maiden has respect for the conven-
tionalities of society, and will not go TO-
600 miles To marry ii man TO whom she
has not been introduced. Acting upon
that belief the ref0rmers propose Il new
plan for governmental action. Instead
of Offering inducements for the girls to
emigrate. they propose that the govern

A MONSTER IN TURTLE FORM.

Mammoth Leather Back Caught in a

\ monster leather back turtle. one Of
the largest ever shipped TO New York,
was received recently by II. f.
Stillman. Of No. 4 Fulton Market from
PaWtuXet. K. |. 1t was viewed 10y large
crowds during the morning. and finally
purchased by John Lawson for exhibition
purposes The big turtle was captured
by the crew of the fishing schooner Lottie
:. r Morton, off the Long Island shore,
not far from WesthamptOn. 1t was
taken only after four hours Of hard work,
and after being landed on the schooner's
deck it succeeded in severely iniuring
several of the crew. The sixteen men of
the Srhooncrs crew had all they could
do to get the monster ashore. 1t died on
1 lc trip to New York, probably from a
spear wound in the head.
When weighed ut the Fulton Market
yesterday morning the scales showed
nearly one thousand pounds. Its entire
length was six feet and greatest height
four feet. The skin was black and
.Shonp like new rubhc". An impression

there appeared TO be hard shell under

Leather back turtles, as the variety is
commonly known among fishermen. are
frequently seen off the Rhode Island
coast. but are seldom caught. One was
sent to this city about eighteen years
ago which weighed nearly sixteen hun
dred pounds. 1t was secured by Eugene
Blackford, fish commissioner at that time
and forwarded to the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition at Washington. This sort Of
turtle is valuable only as curiosity, for
the flesh cannot be used.--New York
