Verdi" Mrs. O'Malley sang with her
usual grace, voice and perfection at
the close Of which she was presented
with beautiful bouquet OF roses and
SO loudly appiauded and encored that
she was compelled to respond to what
was an imperative call. The enter
Jainment closed with fine rendition
of the "Hallelujah Chorus, the entire
audience rising during its rehearsal
at the suggestion Of Mrs. MOOD, who
pronounced an elegant eulogy upon
the splendid work done by the several

sALTNEss OF DEAD SEA.

What makes the Dead sea salt Ii
. question that has been discussed
for centuries, and the most recent
explanation is that advanced by
William Ackroyd, who assigns as
the most important cause the at
lnospheric transportation of salt
from the Mediterranean sea. Pre-
pously it has been assumed that
the saltness of this historic body of
water was due to the soil and rocks,
which, it is now thought, would not
be able to furnish the amount re-
quired and that the Dead sea was
once part of the Red sea, which
had been cut off by the rising Of
Palestine and concentrated by evap-
Grafton, a hypothesis which is not
supported by facts. According to
Ackroyd's theory, the winds blowing
from the Mediterranean would bring
rain charged with salt. In proof
Of this it is stated that the proper
ton of chlorin to bromin is the
same in the Dead sea that it is
in the Mediterranean. - Harper's

A Most Remarkable Case.

A wonderful anasthesia under
terrible injuries has just occurred
In Paris. A young married woman,
Nine. Deplats, fell in her room in
Q fit of giddiness, upsetting a lamp,
from which her clothing caught fire.
The lady's husband found her un-
conscious and suffering from very
severe burns about the lower limbs.
At the sound of his voice she recov-
cred consciousness, but seemed to
suffer no pain and to be quite un-
aware of her condition. She merely
urged him to "see that the soup
does not boil over" At the hospital
abe displayed similar freedom from
discomfort, to the utter bewilder-
msnt of the doctors, considering
the extent of her injuries. Death
took place within few hours.
