Arsenic is a very brittle metal, steel gray in color, and of no great importance in the arts. Metallic arsenic is found native in veins in mctamorphic rocks in Saxony, Bohemia, and abundantly at Chanarcillo in Chili. Arsenic is widely disseminated, as fewsulphur ores are free from traces of it. The white arsenic of commerce is crsenious acid. A striking proof of the lasting qualities of cedar wood nas been discovered in the state ot Washington. Near Acme is a forest of hemlocks, which has grown up over a buried forest of ce urs. It has been iound that the trunks of ceuar are well preserved. j although they have been lying In da nip I soil for at. least 150 years. The ring.* I of growth on the hemlock show that they have been growing over the cedars for that length of time. Mr. Birkeland has continued his calculations to determine whether the periodic changes in the area of the J spotted regions of the sun's surface ! are in any degree due to gravitational ! disturbances produced by either oi the I planets Mercury, Venus or Jupiter. i..s latest calculations cover the period 1S92-90. and his conclusion Is that we I must seek for other causes than planetary influence to explain ?..ie sun spot period and that in future it is idle to look for the cause of this period outside of the solar sphere itself. Professor Georgeson, who is in charge of the agricultural experiment stations in Alaska, sends encouraging reports of the conditions there. He made a trip into the interior and down tiie Yukon early in August and found new potatoes, cabbages, cauliflowers and other vegetables ready for I the table, and gardens blooming with a variety of annual flowers. On the lower Yukon he found extensive trace? i f land covered with luxuriant grasses, fix feet in height in places, ajid apparently well suited to agricultural purposes. The following it? m relating to the Manila observatory is taken from Prof. P.arwnrd's account of his trip to Sumatra: The observatory is equippi d I Inr \\f\i 1? netiiAo/?t?n.ol - * 1 * .. .,ww. uo.iuiiuiiik ai uiiu humcoroiogltal purposes, it has a fine refracting telescope of It) indies aperture, the rbject glass being by Stelnheil and the mounting by Saeginullcr.

Father Algue, the director of the establishment, stated that they had a large percentage of clear nights . i.uring the year, and that the atmos! plicro was steady much of the time. This observatory is doing very valuable meteorological work.

To most minds scientific instruments are so fearfully and wonderfully constructed that no attempt is ever made to pry into the manner of their performing their functions, the results obtained being accepted as n matter of course. Vet many such instruments I while apparently complicated, are j really based on very simple principles. I Of these the thermometer and the j barometer are, of course, now general' ly understood, although this was not always true. Another meteorological instrument, however, which is much used, otic . which is more or less mysterious iO the public, is that by which the amount , of moisture in the air is determined. While delicately constructed nmi t?-.i_ I anced by means of fine springs, the I chief reliance Is placed on a few horse hairs, which are ox< eedingly responsive to the influence of dampness. When the air becomes moist they relax, and a pivoted bar, one end { v.bieh forms an indicator, is drawn ulong a scale, which snows just to what extent tlic air is saturated with \vat< r. When the nir is dry the horse hair becomes tense anil the indicator is returned to its appropriate place on the seal p. It Is in this way that traek is kept of General Humidity, whose damp forecs so effectually conspire to keep humanity in misery during' warm weather. IntolllRmcn nml the Siiffinjp.

The life in the cattle country is familiar to Mr. Wlster, and in this book he has united several chapters that have appeared formerly as separate stories, but that were originally written with the intention of including them in this book. Announcement is made at Columbus. Ga., that the Columbus Manufacturing Co. will at once install the necessary machinery to bring its completomont up to the maximum of 25.000 spindles and 800 looms, as originally planned. This step iB taken now because of an enforced idleness of several months that is caused by the damage recently sustained at the dam of the Columbus Power Co. While the dam is being repaired the mill's additional machinery will bo put in position. The company has awarded contract for the 7500 spindles and 225 looms needed to make the number. in a recent case the Supreme Court of Georgia decided that "dry" counties cannot shut out liquor "in the original package." Whereupon the teetotalers of Cartersville?where Sam Jones lives?got together In mass meeting and served public notice that they'll "make an original package" of any man attempting to bring liquor there. Madison Spinning Co. of Hunt.sville. Ala., is rapidly preparing its new plant for operations, to have 6000 spindles and manufacture thread. A 1500horse-powor engine has just been instrllcd. and the textile machinery will bo n position soon. About 100 operatives will be employed. Company is capitalized lit $100,000. Rushton Cotton Mills. Griflln, Ga.. has completed the Installation of 600 spindles and 12-S looms to doublo its I equipment, and is about to commence production from the now machinery. Probably $100,000 has been expended for the Improvements. John 1). Uockfcller will give $10,000 to Hiram House, a settlement institution at Cleveland. O., providod the management raises $l.r>,000.
