One peculiar, but important, result of
the great storm of red dust that swept
from Africa over Europe, nearly
year ago, is mentioned in the scientific
papers of Europe. 1t seems that the
dust colored the glaciers of the Alps,
and thus produced a red stratum in the
great ice streams, which will make 1t
recognizable for years. This will be
of vast service to the scientists in
their study of movements of the gla-
ciers, for the dust-colored layer can be
traced and followed more accurately
than would be possible without the aid
of so distinct marking.

A French explorer, M. Meissen. has
discovered in Siam a new species Of
ants. They are gray in color, but the
most interesting thing about them is.
the manner in which they move from
place to place. They go in body, as
other ants do, but seem to have a
commanding officer. who directs their
movements ION horseback so to
speak. The explorer noticed, here and
there in the column, an ant much larg-
er than the others. whose movements
were also swifter, and on its back was
one OF the ordinary size. which seemed
to be il command OF the detachment.
This ant would ride to the head Of the
column on it's horse" and then back
to the rear, precisely as if it were or
dering the line of march.

The Ids best timekeeper is said
to bel. lectric clock in the basement
Of the berlin observatory, which was
installed by Professor Forester in 1865.
1t is enclosed in an air-tight glass
cylinder, and has frequently run fo,
periods of two or three months with
an average daily deviation of only IS
1000 of a second. Yet astronomers are
not satisfied even with this, and efforts
are continually made to secure ideal
conditions for clock by keeping it
not only in an air-tight case, but in an
underground vault where neither
changes of temperature nor of baro-
metric pressure shall ever affect it.

and they might have declined to do SO. No provision Is made for such contin- gency and its occurrence would have eff fectuaIiy prevented the act from ever going into effect. But the Legislature not onH committed the question as to whether this act should ever go into op- eration to five named private persons. but 1t went further. that these same per- sons, they having concluded to put the act into operation, could suspend it at any time and could also repeal 1t in sub stance and effect whenever they chose so to do by permanently disseminating the dispensaries; and that upon such re- peal other important laws should revive and become operative in Florence and throughout Lauderdale County"
 Upon these considerations the dispen- sary act is declared to be unconstitu' tional and the decision of the lower court is reversed and rendered.

THAT MERGER RUMOR
PROMPT DENIAL BY MR. EGAN

It is Insisted, However, in Spite of Denials That Report Win Not Prove Entirely

 railroad men that something VIII De done along the line rumored. Says The Atlanta Constitution:
 "As might have been expected the pub

 If it is true that the Southern IS con templatng such consolidation or us properties in the near future every or dclaI on all the roads would deny 1t viz orousiy until it had been decided to give out the information.
 Among railroad men there is almost A universal belief that some change Tn the status of the Southern properties m the State will be made In the near fu- ture. Some think that 1t will only be the absorption of the Atlantic. Valdosta and Western by the Georgia Southern and Florida. Others believe that the Cen tral of Georgia will absorb both the Georgia Southern and Florida and the Atlantic, VaIdosta and Western, or that the Central will be dismembered and d. vided between the Southern and the Georgia Southern and Florida. as out lined in The Constitution yesterday morn- ing.
 Every one acquainted with the situa- tion firmly believes that there is some thing doing in the future of these prop critics and from this time on they will be watched with interest.
