Al to Stalactites.

In calcareous soil the carbonic acid
carried down by rain water acts upon
some of the lime, which then finds its
way as bicarbonate of lime solution
into cavities, where the added car
bonic acid and the water evaporate
The carbonate of lime, in its original
insoluble form. is thus deposited in
crystalline rings that gradually en-
large into stalactites and stalagmites.
M. Stanislaus Meunier gives an ac-
count of remarkable formation of
stalactites in thirty-six years, in a dis
used cellar that in 1863 was walled up
after being partly filled, and was
opened in 1899. More than 500 perfect
stalactites, with many fragments, were
found. The cellar had received the
drainage of courtyard, and the pres
ence of much animal matter had has
tened the growth of the deposit.

wagon-Loading Attachment.

In eXcavating dirt in large quantities
1t is common practice to use teams and
scrapers to draw the dirt to a dump,
or else to employ a large number of
men to shovel the dirt into carts to
be drawn away. The former method
is slow work, in view of the small
loads which can be taken, while the
latter is expensive because of the cost
of labor and the necessity of keeping
the teams idle while the loading is
going on.
Adam Gehringer of Philadelphia, Pa,
has just patentes. an apparatus which
should overcome these objections, a
picture of which is shown herewith
1t consists of two traction wheels, sup
porting a steel frame, on which are
mounted three buckets on an endless
chain. The lower part of the frame is
scoop-shaped to take up the dirt, and
the buckets revolve through the back
portion of the scoop to receive the
load which is to be elevated to the
wagon.
All that is necessary is to attach the
loader to the cart by short chain
and start the horse. the man at the

batteries Under Water.

A remarkable instance of a battery
of accumulators working under water
was recently given in Munich. The
station is situated on an island in the
Isar and during the flood the water
covered the batteries. According to
the Scientific American, one OF the
batteries which ran the car lines was
completely cut out. and 1t was thought
that the other, which furnished light.
would have to be treated in the same
way. The f1y-wheels of the engines
were half in the water. Nevertheless,
as 1t was almost indispensable to light
at least the principal streets OF the
city, 1t was decided to try to operate
the submerged battery. The attempt
was successful, and the battery, which
had been constructed to give 5000 am
pere-hours with 60O-ampere dis
charge, was able to furnish 1000 am
pere-hours during the night. The re-
mainder was lost in discharges in the
water.

George p. Herndon of Washington.

attains the same results, but seemingly
in a better way. 1t consists OF flat
piece of paper Of the relative size and

pocket is opened and the stamp ap-
piled. In view of the recent instal1a-

Electrilcatiou of Glass.

The electrification of glass on rub
bing is known to vary with the differ
ent specimens of fur or flannel used.
An experimenter has lately noticed
that smooth rod of soda glass is al
ways positively electrified by gentle
rubbing with certain piece of fur.
while vigorous rubbing gives a mega
tive charge, and the two kinds of cleo
trification may be produced in differ
ent parts of the same rod and varied

The Burial of "BiIly" Rice.

The remains of Billy" Rice, the
minstrel, have been buried at Hot
Springs, Ark. by the Actors Fund.
Mrs. Rice, who is at present a mem Der
of the Du Barry company, desired to
have the body brought to New York
for interment, but the Fund cannot,
according to its regulations, undertake
the removal of bodies from one city
to another. Mrs Rice endeavored to
secure aid in her project from friends
and societies to which her husband
had belonged, but without success.
The Fund, therefore, provided a suit

To determine whether there exists
a relation between the climate and the

Use of Ozone In water.
Some interesting details have lately
been published concerning the use OF
ozone in purifying water. Ozone is
oxygen in highly active condition
and 1t occurs in small quantities in
the air of the sea and of the noun
tains. Near Berlin an establishment
has been erected for the purpose of ex-
perimenting on the effects of ozone In

into a tower which is filled with f1nts
and in its passage meets the water
coming down and thus acts upon it. 1t
has been shown that, as regards water
from the Spree, the number OF mf-
crobes was decreased from 100000 per
cubic centimeter (O61 cubic inch) to
10, which is practically nil. The total
cost is set down at 35 cents per 1000
cubic feet. Ozone has long been
known as natures disinfectant. and
its application to the publication OF
water becomes, therefore, matter of
great interest If the cost can be re-
duced this mode of publication may
have chance of widespread adoption.

A Curious Rainfall.

Curious Rainfall.
On Jan. of this year rain fell at
Periers in France for several hours.
The rainwater collected looked like lye,
or like water containing clay. 1t was
odorless, of earthly taste and slightly
saline. After twenty-four hours it
precipitated an abundant deposit that
was almost entirely silicious. Linen
clothes and the leaves of plants were
covered with a considerable silicious
matter AS previous rains had thor
oughly wetted the ground this phe-
nomenon is not to be explained by
supposing that large amount of ST.
licious dust had been carried into the
air by winds and subsequently prec1p1-
tated by rain. The most probable ex-
planation is that the water of the pre-
vious rains lay in very shallow pools
on the surface of silicious ground and
that by high winds (Which were OBJ
served) the water was raised into the
air and subsequently descended as
rain.
