work there was in its infancy. but under
his guidance success was rapidly attained
In 1850 DIT. Jessup and his family narrowly
escaped being massacred by the TURKS. On
many other occasions his life was endaE-
gered. The greatest monument 10 his work
in Syria is the Protestant College at Beirut

greater part of the necessary money. Dur

Action of Dynamite,

The most remarkable characteristic
about dynamite is its rapidity Of &C.
ton, and for that reason it cannot be
used in firearms, since 1t explodes so
quickly and in all directions at once
and would tear the barrel to pieces.
Shooting candle through board
without disturbing it in the least is
outdone by dynamite, which is so
quick in its action that tender green
leaf can be compressed into the hard
est steel before it has time to 6atten.
One Of the experiments of the United
States torpedo works was to place
some leaves between two heavy fiat
pieces of iron. set them on firm foun-
dalton and see what gun cotton would
do in forcing the iron pieces together.
The reaction was so great from just
being exploded in the open air that
one of the iron pieces was driven down
upon the other quick enough to catch
an exact and complete impression of
the leaves before they could escape.

Birds and Aeropianes,

A curious effect of aviation is re-
ported from the champagne producing
district of France 1t is disclosed by
a correspondent in Country Life trying
to explain the bad prospects of the
present shooting season. One reason
for the scarcity Of birds is alleged to
be the frequency with which at
Rheims and Mourmelon aeroplanes are
heard and seen in the air. The quail
and partridge appear to think that the
aeroplane is new kind of bird Of
prey and one of the most terrible, with
the result that they have become fugi-
tives from the district. This is per-
fectly credible: but. on the other hand.
it is only the novelty that terrifies the
wild creatures. One can imagine how
the English hares and rabbits scuttled
across the fields when they first heard
and saw steam engine. but today
they may be seen feeding in perfect
peace while the train passes close to
them. The motor, too. has ceased to
be terror to animals.
