REPORT SHOWS CITY WATER SAN
TTARY BUT NOT SAFE

In a report of the analysis of the To-
cal water supply, sent to the city clerk
here, the assistant engineer of the state
board of health states that the sanitary
aspect of the supply is unsatisfactory
for the reason that contamination may
reach the water supply through several
cross -connections. One of these cross
connections is located in the plant and
another is at the Hennepin paper mill.
Removal of the transformations be-
tween the municipal system and any
private supply system is recommended;
also the installation of filtration plant
and the establishing of a laboratory
here under control of the city for the
examination Of the water at frequent
intervals.
archaeological examination Of sam
Piles taken at various places in the city
show the water to be Of good sanitary
quality, as evidenced by the low bac'
THEOLOGICAL count. the report states. It
goes on to say, however, that the alb
sence of indications of contamination
in the water does not mean that the
supply is safe as the field survey shows
avenues through which contamination
can enter at any time.

Earth 10 Slowing Down.

Happily for our convenience, the
process is extremely slow, but all the
same the fact is that the days are
getting longer. .--..
This does not refer to hours OF
daylight increasing with the advancing
year, but to days as timed by the
revolution Of the earth on its axis.
The earth's power Of rotation, says
a writer In the Popular Science
Monthly, is growing weaker and as q
result its revolution on it's axis is
slowing up. Which means, Of course,
that the day. is frightening.
An epoch must eventually arrive
when the day will be equal in length
to the year; that is, to the time it
takes for US to revolve about the sun.
Then the earth will always turn the
same face toward the solar luminary,
Just as the moon now always turns the
same face toward us, and one.half of
our planet will have sunshine all the
year, while the other half is In total
and permanent darkness.
That is, If the sun still Is shining.
It may become q dim and chilly orb
before then.

Plant lmpales Insects.

There is in Cuba a curious grass,
eenchrus echinatus, which bristles
With tiny sharp-pointed spikelets upon
which multitudes of insects are i'm
paled by night as well as by day.
The wings of the victims are pierced
and entangled by the barbed spines,
so that the most of them are unable
to get away, and thus perish miser-
ably.
Even a large, luminous swapping
beetle, which is so strong and active
that it can with difficulty be held in
the hands, falls victim to these
vegetable bay0nets. It has been OBJ
served, however, that two species Of
insects. a large bug, oebalus, and an
earwig, readily free themselves from
the spines. Minute insects are not
caught. The grass does not appear to
derive any nourishment from its prey.
It is found elsewhere in the West
Indies and in southern Florida.

Hebrides Not All Gloom.

Occasionally there is a sun in the
Hebrides, writes traveller. Then the
highlander sees beauty. The wild
coast grass a brown-green, it's sea-
birds a snowy white. and the ocean
with it's innumerable waves sparkling
blue. And on summer nights, when
the fishermen go forth. the ph0sphores-
cent glow offers q splendid sight. "A
stream of fire ran off each side from
the bows" says MacCulloch, "and the
ripple Of the wake was spangled with
the glowworms Of the deep. Every
oar dropped diamonds, every fishing
line was line of light, the iron cable
went down in torrent of flame, and
the plunge Of the anchor resemhled
an explosion Of lightning"
