Some time ago we illustrated in de-
tail the experiments which are being
carried out in the Roman Campagna,
Italy, for the reduction Of the mos
quito plague. 1t has been established
beyond doubt that these insects are
the cause of the dissemination of ma
larial microbes, and further light has
been thrown upon the subject by Maj.
Ronald Ross, R. A. NJ. c., who re-

the origin and spread of malarial fever.
At Freetown the investigators en-
ployed workmen to destroy mosquito
larvae and within thirty-four days
they had cleared more than 1000
houses, with the result that the num-
Der of mosquitoes has been largely
reduced, and it was hoped that there
would be a corresponding abatement
In cases of malaria. This week we
illustrate and experiment which has
been made at Staten Island by DR.. AL
yah Doty. health officer of the port of
New York. His method was to de-
stroy the mosquitoes with petroleum,
and he attacked Muller's pond, which
has for years been a breeding place,
to the discomfort of the inhabitants
of Concord, where malaria has been
prevalent. Doctor Doty proposed to
distribute oil over the water, and for
that purpose he contrived a wooden
float eight feet long and four feet
broad. Within this. in a n some
what resembling a harp, were placed
pipes perforated with small holes six
apart. A hose. connected with
a tank filled with crude petroleum. and
a pump were then attached to the
pipes, and petroleum vas driven
down through the water with consid-

Eight Immense Are to
BE Used as Column. In the Cathedral
of st. John the Divine Being Erected
In New York.


Eight of the largest blocks of stone
ever quarried in this country are lying
at the works of the Bodwell Granite
company at Ninal, Maine, awaiting the
completion OF a great lathe which is to
turn n polish them. They are to
be used as columns for The Cathedral
of st. John the Divine. New York city.
The weight of the stones in the
rough is from 100 to 100 tons each.
They are from ffty-seven to sixty feet
in length and about seven feet in di-
ameter. When ready for shipment each
stone will be a round column six feet
in diameter and fifty-six feet in length
and will weigh more than sixty tons.
The contract price for the eight stones
Is 100000, something more than $685..
600 for each column.
AS there was no lathe in existence
large enough to turn the columns,
John Pierce. the contractor, is having
one built at a cost of about $50, 900.
The shafts of granite are so long that
they will not hold their own weight

viate this difficulty a central support
will be put in the lathe, which will
turn with the shaft, and after the
stone is made into a cylinder the ma
chinery will be moved ahead to take
off the uncut section.
In 1856. when the columns in front
of the treasury building at Washing
ton were cut on Dix island. Maine,
stone workers said they were the lin
it of size in granite work. From hat
date until the early sos the treasury
columns. which were twenty-seven feet
in length. were the greatest feat of
the stonecutters. Then the monument
to Cen. Wool, which is erected ar West
Point, was cut at Vinal Haven. and
held the record until the architect of
the Cathedral of St. John the Divine
came forward with a plan for eight
columns, each of which was to be fifty
six feet long.

MINES OF WAX.

In several parts Of the world a resi-
nous substance called ozocerite. and
bearing considerable resemblance to
beeswax, is found, usually in onnec-
ton with rock salt and coal. There
are deposits In Austria, Russia, Rou-
mania, Egypt. Algeria. Canada and
Mexico. but. says our consul at Trieste,
Mr.. Hossfeld, ozocerite has. so far, not
been discovered in sufficient quantities
to pay for mining anywhere except in
the district of Boryslav. in Austrian
Galicia, and on an island on the west
coast Of the Caspian Sea. In mining
this mineral wax, shafts are sunk un-

IS THERE A PLANET BEYOND NEP-
UNI?

This question vas revived before the
Royal Society of Edinburgh lately by
Prof. George Forbes. who called atten-
tion to the fact that there are seven
comets whose aphelion points, accord
Ing to their calculated orbits, CORE
spona with the position OF a planet re-
v~olvins around the sun at a distance
100 times greater than that of the
earth, and having a period of about
LOCO years. He suggested that the dis
turhing attraction of this supposed
planet had altered the elements of the
orbit of the great comet seen in 1864
and 1856 so hat it did not come back
when expected in 1S4S. This comet, he
thought, might be identified with the
third comet of 1874 or the second
comet Of 1913, its return having been
fastened by the perturbation of the
planet.

many interesting facts about these

that not only the direction of the wind.
but its relative velocity at different
elevations from the ground, affected
the direction of the sound-waves. In
some cases, contrary winds refracted
the sound over the heads of observers
