as the Germans still call it, and finally
to jet. But it was known in this coun-
| try before ever the Romans landed in
Kent; jet beads, rings, buttons and 9TH
err personal ornaments have been found
in barrows of the bronze age, as may be
seen in Yorkshire museum. In these
instances the material probably was OBJ
tanned from the coast near Whitby, this
and the adjacent district being still the
principal source for Jet in Britain. IL
is occasionally washed up on the sea-
shore like amber on the Cromer coast,
but is only got in any quantity by min
ing. Some Of the best, as Drayton
wrote long ago, has been found on the
Mulgrave estate. 1t occurs at two horl-
IONS, one in the Estuarine beds OF the
Lower Oolite, which, however, is gene
rally too soft to be of any commercial
value, and the other in the las, rather
above the middle division. Here the
best or hard jet"' is obtained, but the
softer kind is also associated with it.
The excavations are opened sometimes
in the cliffs. sometimes inland; and the
material-which commonly occurs in
bands of a more or less lenticular form
into shape, and polished on list-covered
wheels. What may be the origin of jet
is not so certain; probably 1t has more
than bne but If SO, all varieties are
likely to have much in common. 1t is
bituminous substance, for 1t burns with
a dense, strong smoke; while
an inf1ammable gas and small drops of
liquid bitumen occasionally show them
selves in the mines Thus 1t may some
times be closely related to such sub
stances as amber or Kauri gum; indeed,
it sometimes passes by the name Of blac
amber. The shale itself, when highly
bituminous, may furnish some varieties
of jet, because it Is occasionally found
to contain scales Of fish and other fos
sils. That would, no doubt, be the case
with many of the inferior varieties, and
then it would have some relationship to
camel coal, which Is the most inflam-
mable of fuels, getting it's name camel
or candle coal, from its easy ignition
and bright flame.
This may be described as petrified
vegetable pulp, and very likely some Jet
has had rather similar origin. But a
good deal, at any rate, of what has been
examined under the microscope shows
distinct traces of structure charac-
teristic Of wood. Jet would, therefore,
take its place among the lignites or
Drown Goals which represent an in
termediate stage in the conversion of
vegetable matter into coal, retaining
much more of the original oxygen
than the latter. Ignite is common in
more than one geological deposit, and
often, in those later than the las, in
Germany and other countries, is worked
for fuel, as, for example, at Bovey Ira
cey in Devonshire. But the Yorkshire
owners If jet comes" into fashion, will
hardly be able to make a corner" in it,
for very good quality can be got in
Spain from the province of the Asturias
and from France in the department Of
the Aude, not ia. mention other places |
Ebonito has sometimes served as a sub
stitute for jet Art having stepped in
once more to supply the deficiencies of

killed fourteen natives and wounded
twenty
Our next battle was at San Jose, but
1T lasted only about ten minutes. When
about four miles further on the first
we knew the natives poured a volley
into us, wounding three of our men,
one of whom was the doctor. That
made our men hot and we fell into
line and made it hot for them. Seven
fell at the first volley. The captain
gave orders to stop firing, but we kept
it up and rushed them for about half
mile When we returned we found
tWenty-seven killed and L don't know
how many wounded. We resumed the
march and about II o'clock the scouts
ran into camp of natives The
scouts shouted for Company e, and we
started for the front at doublS quick.
we chased them for mile across a
rice field and found about 1,500 in camp
near creek. We killed forty-three,
and many surrendered. We captured
large number of rifles and much am
munttion.''

school consider that Superintendent
kendalrs statements last Friday about
supervision in that school are just as
full of error as was his statement about
the supervisor of penmanship, which
I forced him to retract last week.
Reform in the supervisor system,
which l am trying to bring about, can
be briefly stated in this way In these
respects / wish to have the other
schools of the city placed on the same
basis as the Dwight school. For that
reason I hope that the supervisorships
of primary grades of drawing, of PEN
manship, and of kindergartens will be
abolished by the Board of Education.
That will make a saving in salary ex
penses of $500 without considering
the saving in the cost of material used.
