MAGNETIC WATER.
Ercellent Authority for a Strange
Story from Indiana.

So absurd has the notion that water could have
magnetic properties seemed to competent judges
that stories Of it's discovery have been generally
discredted. NJ. O. Leighton. a photographer OF the
United States Geological Survey, has been inves-
tigating OF these marvellous tales, and ne
feels obliged to confirm them. The scene OF MS
inquiry was Indiana, and he declares that he has
found such water in three parts of the State. One
locality Cartersburg Springs. another is Lebanon
and a third is Fort Wayne At all Of these places
the fluid possesses for a short time after rising
from the earth, the power OF magnetizng steel
objects immersed therein.
From a contribution OF Mr.. Leighton to En-
cheering News it appears that the water contains
quantity of carbonic acid gas. and it retains the
property just mentioned until the gas escapes.
After that double change takes place, sediment
formed at the bottom of the receptacle which Is
probably ferrous carbonate.
