Lamartine's barber, a certain M.
Isopy, is (says a Paris correspondent)
till alive, lie is just ninety-two, and
his greatest delight is to talk of liis
hero. He treasurers up a faded daguerreotype
of the sentimental politician,
who. having been the dominant figure
In France, died in obscurity. M. Ispoy's
show was the favorite gathering place
of the celebrities of 'IS. It is probable
that M. de Iaimartine, who used
to summon his hairdresser to Macon,
mployed him as an emissary In those
turbulent days. It was pleasing to
know from such an authority that j
I.amartine was the inventor of "genuine
bear's grease from Russia," and
that this unguent was the cause of the
poet's sllkj iiicks.

An accomplishment that receives too
little attention among trained nurses
Is the art of reading aloud. Only
those who have had to lie on a sick
bed through long weeks and months
can appreciate the comfort of being enabled
to listen to Intelligent reading.
A gentle, pleasantly Inflected voice, a
clear and distinct articulation, and an
Intelligent comprehension of the matter
read have a soothing effect upon
the mo3t irritable nerves, and for that
reason should be considered desirable
qualifications in a sick nurse. There
are many people who cannot afford the
expense of having both a companion
and a nurse, but a nurse who can be a
companion as well must be considered
an acquisition indeed.

A naturalist who lias given many
years of study to some of lhe smaller
forms of insect life has discovered thai
certain sorts of spiders are possessed
of organs for which thero seems to
be no use save to create sound. They
are mostly used when the little creatures
are alarmed, although the opinion
is held by some tbnt this is theii
means of calling to their mates. The
alarm idea, however, has some support
In the ease of the rattlesnake, which
is provided with the means of making
its presence known whenever an enemy
approaches. Whether the possession o!
organs for creating sound is designed
merely as a protection or warning is
a point to which naturalists are giving
careful and enthusiastic attentiion.

STATE PRISON BUILDING.
Attorney General Renders an Opir.lon
Concerning; it.
it is now absolutely safe to say *hat
in a very short time the work of remodeling
the main building at the penitentiary
and fitting it with heating
and ventilating apparatus, will be un
der way.
The condition of this building has
been such as 'o rause mueh comment.
The board of directors last winter
.ailed the intention of the legislature
to .he condition of things, asserting
that it was iucli as to menace the
lives of the unfortunate charges of the
State who have to inhabit it. 'I'll?
hoard at its meeting this week, determined
to use the profits of the institution
for the absolutely improvements
if such could be legally done, ami the
at torney general was asked for his
opinion. I ins opinion was rendered
and it permits the use of the funds,
which means that the board will proceed.
Hero is the opinion:
Hon. \V. T. O'Dell, Chairman Board of
Directors South Carolina Penitentiary.
Columbia, S. C.
Dear Sir: In your favor of the 7th
in%t.. you desire to know whether you
"are allowed to use the earnings of the
institution for the purpose of improving
tin- main building of the penitentiary
so as to better promote the
health and comfort of the inmates."
Among the duties prescribed for the
superintendent of the penitentiary (see
Section 551, sub. div. 4. Volume II, Revised
Statutes), we find that he is "to
make all necessary repairs of the |
prison and superintend the construction
of the work." I find no other
statute relating to the repair or improvements
upon the building of the
institution. The appropriation act for
the prrfent year see page 490. provides.

board of directors of the South Caro- j

together with all other amounts received
or to he received from the hire
of convicts or from any other source
during the current fiscal year be. and
hhe same are hereby appropriated for
the purposes required by law, which
are not herein indicated. By Section
547 of the Revised Statutes a general
supervision of the penitentiary, its inmates.
property, etc.. is made a part of
the duties of the board of directors. I
am of the opinion that if the work contemplated
is. in your opinion necessary,
then you are allowed by law to
use the earnings of the institution for
said work, and that it is the duty of
the penitentiary authorities to promote
the health and comfort of the inmates
of the institution so far as the
same does not interfere with the just
and humane punishment contemplated
by law. Respectfully.

Heating <?i>?t>lllt ten of Wood.
From time immemorial soft wood
has been regarded as comparatively
valueless for heating purposes. Hard
wood has brought high prices and has
been in much greater demand than
soft, on account of this generally prevailing
notion. Experiments with
woods of various sorts have demonstrated
that the linden, which is one of
the softest of woods, gives the greatest
amount of heat. The value of other
woods in their order, as ascertained, is
as follows: Fir with 0.99 heating
power; next follow the elm and pine
with 0.98; willow, chestnut and larch
with 0.97; maple, spruce and fir with
0.9fi; black poplar with 0.95; alder and
wuiic uiiuii wua u.a* oniy; men comou
th?? hart! oak with 0.92; the locust and
the white beech with 0.91, and the red
beech with 0.90. Hence hard wood
heats the least." It is one of tho remarkable
facts of the day that so many
'.heorles that have been held for many
years are fast giving way beforo tho
trltieal analysis of science.

Mr. Charles Davison finds that when
Kurtz's alkali works at St. Helens,
Eng.. were blown up by the explosion
of eighty tons of chlorate of potash,
the. noise was heard at Marple. twentyeight
miles away. The doors, windows
and chimneys of workmen's cottages
within a few hundred yards of
the works were dismantled, and within
the radius of a mile hardly a window
escaped. At the battle of Corunna
1,500 barrels of gunpowder blew tip,
causing the ground to rock for miles.
The blast at Hell Gate, New York
(130 tons of dynamite), was perceived
183 miles away by the vibrations of
mercury. The shock of tlue dynamite
explosion (fifty tons) at Johannesburg
was felt at Pretoria, thirty-three miles
distant. The naval magazine of Lagouban
(Toulon), which blew up 50.000
kilograms of black powder on March 5
last, was heard at Nice, eighty-four
miles distant, and even at Ventiinigliu,
In Italy, 100 miles distant. The country
for a radius cf two miles was
blown bare, houses knocked to pieces
and trees uprootod or bent into fan
