OLD CATHEDRAL CRUMBLING.
French Governments Neglect In Re-
pairing Church of st. Denis
Causing Alarm.

CONSERVATION has been caused at
Paris by the st. Denis cathedral's in
terror crumbling. One of the bottom
nave windows had to be filed. The
bricks of the north. tower are ex-
tremely full of cracks.
The statue of St. Denis on the ga
BILE of the nave was decapitated by
a Prussian bullet in 1870, and is grad
ually going to dust, while the font
Of woodwork is decaying for want Of
a coat of paint.
The edifice is one of the most often
visited by foreigners, but is allowed
to go to ruins for lack of a small
outlay by the government.

Microbe. in Old Wine cork,.

NJ. Pottiez, the distinguished bac-
teriologist, has just found that the
cid dictum that wine destroys mi
crobes is false. AS matter of fact,
IL eaases-them-to increase he eofks

croscopic. spiders, species of tyro-
