saokville street. Dublin.

Dublin is one of the finest cities in the British empire, and it's public buildings are second te none. Two very different men have united sn it's praise. GoIdwin Smith said that Phoenix park was the most beautiful of all the parks he had seen. and Grevfl1e, even more enthusiastic, wrote: '1 am greatly struck by the fneness of the town of Dublin and of its public buildings especially. Dublin is, for its size fDer city than Lon don, and I think they beat us hollow in their public buildings. We have no such square as Merrion square nor such street as SackviIle street" Sala in "Bells of Shandon'' vein re- viewed all the great streets he had promenaded from the Nevski prospect to Piccadilly.- Of them all he says by far the finest is Sackvf1le street, Dub lin, as it stretches from the river .Lidey to the rounds and it's gardens.

One of the most remarkable scientific instruments yet devised is that con structed by Professor R.. ". Wood to aid the work of astronomers This Is an astronomical mirror, the Eeflecting surface of which is revolving mercury elaborately protected against vibra- ttons, and it magnifies in proportion to the speed of it's revolutions. A metal dish containing mercury and turning on bearings carries on It's edge a series of magnets. Encircling, but not touch ing them, is an iron ring. By motor power this ring Is made to revolve upon bearings separate from those of the mercury container, but it's mag nets, attraeting those on the contain CTS edge, cause the latter also to re- volve. Centrifugal force compels the mercury to form concave surface. perfect so long as free from jars.

During a severe drought in a certain section of Australia the owner of c country station was sitting one even ing on the porch when he saw 6 kangaroo lingering about, alternating approaching and retiring from the house, as if half in doubt and fear what to do. At length she approached the water pails and, taking a young one from her pouch. held it to the water to drink. While her baby was satisfying it's thirst the mother was quivering all over with apprehension for she was but few feet from the porch where one of her foes was watching her. The baby, having 6rl- ished drinking. was replaced in the pouch, and the old kangaroo set of at a rapid pace.

The court says: '@That the remark was improper must be admitted; that it was probably intended to influence the jury, appellant is justified in charging, but we cannot bring ourselves to the conclusion that it could have had this effect upon the jury even without the counteracting influence of what was said by the court.

FOREST CYPRESS STUDIES.
By The Forest Service u. S. Depart,
ment Of Agriculture.

W. r. Nation, forest examiner,
has Just left Washington TO study
cypress in the South. Cypress grows
along the Atlantic Coast and Cult of
Mexico, from Maryland to Texas, and
in the Mississippi River valley it
extends as far north as Cairo, Ill, at
the Junction of the Mississippi and
Ohio rivers.
1t is distinctly tree of the swsmps,
anc more than 80 per cent. of it is
found at sn elevation of less than 100
feet above sea le eel. Extensive cy-
press forests occur in the delta of
the Mississippi, covering several
thousand square miles, and also in
some of the large swamps Of Georgia
and Florida. such as the 0kefenokee
and the great cypress swamps firing
ing the everglades.
In some places it occurs where
the soil is covered with water for
weeks or months at time, and in a
few places the base or trunk is sub
merged throughout the year. Usual
liz the lower part of the trunk is heav-
ily buttressed and numerous projec-
tions, or knees" are sent up from
the roots, probably as an aid in Sc
curing air Cypress wood has great
durability, which adapts il to many
purposes for which some other species
are unsuited.
Census statistics show that in 1911
over sSl, 900, 600 feet of il were used
for lumber, lath and shingles, and
that in point of annual consumption
it stands seventh among the various
sJftwoods, or coRiferous trees. 1t
is one of the few conifers which shed
their leaves each winter. 1t is used
for a great variety of purposes, such
as tanks, cisterns, columns, exterior
and interior finish. railroad ties, poles
and wharf piling. 1t is especially
valuable for greenhouse construction.
While cypre SIS wood has so many
good qualities, the tree itself pre-
sents many problems to the fore ster.
It's rate of growth, they say, is
extremely slow, so that the cost of
producing large-sized timber is great
as compared with that cf producing
wood from other more rapid growing
trees. Furthermore, it does not read
lily reproduce itself, and there is some
doubt as to whether mature stands
will replace themselves after being
cut.
1t is an open questi IN, according
to the authorities, whether it will
pay to maintain the species in locali-
ties where it now occurs. Much OF
the land upon which it grows is cap
able of high agricultural deve lopment
when drained Even where it might
be reproduced, it is net known how
this reproduction may be brought
about IL is with view to throwing
light on these important problems
that Mr. Mattoon is undo rtaking the
present study.
