New Unknown Mineral.

A new mineral of the New South
Wales coal fields, mentioned by cor
respondent OF tiIe |S}refnic ca, TTaJe
Journal under the names of fibrofer-
rite and mullide, has been both arous-
ing great expectations and by spon-
taneOus combustion causing much
trouble in the mines. Great quaint
ties are said to exist, estimates of its
value differing widely. Chemical in
vestigation seems TO suggest that 1t
may yield a valuable supply of dyes
and other products now imported, and
one mine manager considers it even
more valuable than coal.

Deserved Its Name.

The "Fish Train" which runs daily
from New South Wales to the Blue
mountains. Australia, is a passenger
express and never carried any fish
freight. This name was given the
express because at one time the en-

man Herring and the conductor Null
lett, three well-known fish.
