A WOOD THAT ouTLAsTs IRON
British Guiana Grernheart Used In
Panama Canal Work

From the Boston Transcript.
A wood which, according to the De
partment Of agriculture, outlasts iron
and steel when placed in water is
British Guiana greenheart. 1t is used
in ship and dock building, trestles,
bridges, shipping platforms, flooring
and for all purposes involving great
wear and tear.
When the greenheart dock gates In
the Mersey harbor at Liverpool Were
removed in order that the channel
same wood as again employed in
building the enlarged gates, and wood
placed in the gates of the Canada
dock in 1856 was used again in its
reconstruction in 1894.
The use of greenheart has been spe.
Gifted for sills and tenders in the lock
gates of the Panama Canal. Nansen's
ship, the Fran. and the Antartic ship
Discovery were built Of greenheart. In
addition to its use as timber. great
quantities of the wood are made into
charcoal.
Though II grows in parts of British
French and Dutch Guiana, Venezuela,
Brazil, Columbia. Peru, Trinidad
Jamaica and Santo Domingo, II Is be-
ing cut only in British Guiana, whero
it is found along the sea coast and
water courses. Greenheart used to
bring 81 cubic foot at the point Of
shipment but the present price Il.
considerably less.

GOV. SLATON AND HIS FRIENDS
OPPOSE CHANGE OF BOOKS.
State Commissioner Britain Sides
With Him, But Majority of the
Members Override Them.

ATLANTA-A sharp split arose
in the state school board when it met
here today, as a book commission, to
consider the adoption of new book
contracts for another period of five
years. Governor Slaton, ex-officio
president of the board, introduced a
set of resolutions looking to the re-
newal of the present contracts pend
ing the action of the legislature next
summer.
While the contracts are made for
a period of five years they may be
abrogated by the state on years
notice under the act passed last sum-
mer creating a legislative commits
sion to inquire into the prices of
school books and the feasibility of
the states publishing it's own books.
The governor urged that the en-
tering upon new contracts now, be-
fore the legislative committee had
done its work and action been taken
by the general assembly thereon,
might entail three complete changes
of books used in the common schools
within the next five years and would
be a needless burden to the parents
who would have to buy the books.
He was supported in this view by
State School Superintendent NJ. L.
Britain.
The majority took the view, how
ever, that an immediate change was
needed, as MANY of the books now in
use were inferior, and they fixed up
on Oct. 25 as the date when bids
shall be opeend. Only one agent for
each publishing house will be heard
from and hearings must be complet-
ed before Oct. Is.
The matter of the adoption of uni
form text books for high schools was
again referred to the attorney gen.
eral for his opinion.

DISCOVERS FISH THAT WALK.
Take Nigh Cuts on Dry Land in
Search of Water.

According to naturalists there eX-
list fish which walk on dry land and
others which traverse in like manner
the floor of the ocean.
For instance, DR.. Francis Day OF
India discovered several cases of the
migration of land by fishes from one
piece of water to another. while Lay
ard once encountered some piscine
specimens evidently belonging to the
perch family traversing a hot, sandy
road at noon on sultry day. Hum
boldt was once astOunded to behold
a species of dorus progressing over
the dry ground by a succession of
leaps, supported by its pectoral fins,
and he also heard of another that
climbed a hillOck 20 feet high.
In a certain part of India a party
of English officers were encamped
when a rustling sound in the grass
and leaves attracted their attention
They found on investigation that the
noise was caused by countless num-
bers of little fish that were moving
slowly over the ground and making
steadily in one direction. Their
method of locomotion consisted in
using their sides and small fins as
feet, and their progress was anything
but smooth. Constantly they were
falling from their upright positions,
.squirming on their sides, rolling over
and finally struggling onto their feet
again and resuming their march.
The fish these officers saw are well
known as the climbing perch, which
have long taken prominent rank
among the curiosities o. nature, and
they were being compelled by drouth
to traverse a tract of dry land in or
der to regain their native element.
