Z Some interesting facts concerning the
comparative number Of particles OF
dust and bacteria in the air were COM
municated to the Royal Institution re-
Gently by DR.. Allan Macfadyen. Using
Aitken's dustcounter, he found in an
open suburb of London 10000 dust
particles in every cubic centimeter OF
air, while in the heart Of the great
town the number of particles, in the
same volume OF air, was 100000. In
the open air Of London there was, on
the average, only one micro-organism
to every 3S,300,000 particles of dust,
and in the air Of a room amongst 1S4,-
OOO.O00 dust particles only one organ
ism could be detected. These facts,
Doctor Macfadyen said, illustrate the
poverty of the air in heterogeneous
even when it is very dusty. Their
continued existence is rendered diff
cult through the influence Of desicca-
ZION and sunlight. Drying up is one
of natures favorire methods Of getting
rid Of bacteria.

A note by II. Henri Coupin in the
Academic des Sciences deals with the
sepSibiliry Of the higher plants to very
small quantities of toxic substances in
81 state of extreme dilution. and the re-
maraable character Of the work lies
in the almost infnitesimal quantity of
such substances needed to cause ser::.
Gus disturbances in the health of the
plant organism. The most deadly sub
stance discovered by NJ. Coupin was
sulphate Of copper, Of which only
one sevcn-hundredth-m Of its
weight in water was sufficient to react
upon plants disastrouSly. The fore
going amounts, poisonous as they are
to plants, are altogether too small 10

The research raises the important cues

ter of the vegetation Of 4 country is

ties o. such substances contained in

The sea has flowers rs the land has,

ers bloom rot upon plants but upon

cal seas present 4 display Of floral
beauty which in richness and vivid
ness of color and variety and grace
of form rivals the splendOr Of gar

yegetal blossoms is so complete that
some persons find it difficult to believe
that the brilliant display contains no

the sea animals which bloom as If

corals. the sea anemone and the sea

the Importance Of keeping the ground
on hillsides covered with grass or
with trees A slanting cultivated field
washes away rapidly. and thus rich
soil that is the very life of agriculture
is carried to the rivers, and thence
to the ocean, where it is not needed. A
muddy river means, therefore. real
loss to the people, a loss that might
be avoided. There is no doubt that
many rivers that are now muddy were
clear before civilization carried tillage
to the regions through which they run.

Admiral Dewey Will Not Sign q
Report of Ccnsure.
Philadelphia, Nov. 26-Admiral Dew
ey has taken the position firmly that
nc will not sign any verdict that in any
way censures Admiral Schley accord
Ing to a Washir gton dispatch to the
Ledger. The other members of the
court. Admirals Benh i'm and Ram
sey. have not taken this decided po-
sition, but SO far as they have ex-
pressed their conclusions it is under
stood they will no doubt join in the
ultimate vindication Of Schley. Ad-
miral Dewey, it is said, takes into con-
sideration the uncertainties and per-
plexities that beset Schley at Cienfue-
COS and Santiago, and compares them
with his own feelings when he sailed
into Manila bay. The court is rapidly
approa ching the completion of it's judg-
ment. Unless a mistake has been
made as to the presentations of the
court the decision will go beyond the
expectation when the record was
closed, and Admiral Schley will receive
ar unequivocal and unalterable quit
lance OF all the varied charges made
against him and be given full honor
for what he accomplished as the COM
mander-in chief in the battle of Santi-
ago.

GOPHERS BEAT PURPLE.
Poor Generalship Is Costly to North
western.


Chicago, Nov. 26.-Minnesota defeat
ed Northwestern 16 to at Marshall
Field Saturday afternoon in a long
drawn-out, tedious game, which began
late and was not completed until long
after it was too dark to distinguish
either plays or players. Northwest
ern's poor genera,ship was responsible
for the size of the score, as two of the
Gopher's touchdowns were almost en-
tirely due to the puppies failure to
punt the ball out of danger when it's
goal was threatened. In this way a
magnificent defense was nullified to a
considerable extent, for the team from
Evanston put up sturdy fight
throughout the game and held the
Gopher gians' mass plays well. But in
two instances, after a plucky fight had
gained them the ball almost at their
last line, poor neadwork sent the tan
dem crashing into the Gophers for
short gains. Once a penalty gave the
Minnesotans the ball within easy dis
lance, and the purple defense, already
worn down, was unequal to the task Of
again stopping the heavy plays.
