BAKU'S FOUNTAINS.
The Persian Rival of 'ennsylvania's 'etro
leun Fieldr;-Twelve Thousand Square
3Miles of Oil Region.
New York Star.]
The great t')wn of Baku has now a
coast line of about six miles, sweepiig
around a well protected harbor crowded
-- ith ship~pig-ships of all tonnatge, all
fitted with taiiks to Store the oil that
pours from a hundred fountains. Froum
S tilme inonemiiorial this spot has been
deemed saered by the (:hei'res of Persia,
vwho recognize in the flame of the lative
naphtha a sacred fire syIIbol. Ilere for
at least 2,INNi years the sacred earth fed
flane has burned unceasingly, and the
temple of Surukhani has been a centre
of reverent pilgrimage. This native
naphtha flows from the soil in so pure a
form as to burn without rectification,
and is, indeed, so inflanumable that the
naptha gas occasionally ignites spoil
taneously and plays in pale flamics
above fissures in the roek. On stormy
nights these flames have been seen to
blaze up with an awful spirit light,
which, to the eves of the Ghebres,
invested the spot with special sanctity
-a sanctity intensified by the fact that
here, according to Arabian chroniclers,
a great volcanic mountain was in full
action till 800 years ago. Since then
the thiermal forces have expended their
energies on spouting oil and therewit h
saturating the desert phin of the As
pheros peninsula; and truly a more
repulsive site for a great city could not
well be found.
It is a dain about fifteen miles in
l and projecting thirty miles into
the Caspian from the point where the
Caucasus terminates on its shores. The
whole surface of the ground is black
with waste petroleum, which in cold
weather hardens to the consistency of
asphalt, whereas beneath the blazing
midsuniner sun the foot sinks in to
the dlepth of two or three inches. Every
breath of wind rises blinding cloudsof
black, bituminous dust, formed by the
coarse black naphtha with which the
streets are yeriodically "watered," true
water being too precious to be thus
wasted. This dust, combined with the
densesmoke poured from the chimneys
of somewhere about 3u0 refining facto
ries, does nothing to improve the at
mosphere. And here, day and night,
the oil fountains pour forth their hid
cols black streams. They yield an
average of from 25 to :y> per cent. of
pur. oil, and from 20 to 30 per cent. of
rfuse, wvhiA- um.akes excellent fuel for
the gtreat ileets of oil steamers and loco
moiZtivest. Thie supply miay well be
deemed inexhaustible, inasmuch as
12,000O square miles in this region are
founzd to be oleiferous. and of this vast
surface only six imiles htave as yet been
developed. The oil bearing stratum
extends beneath the -Caspian, where it
e rops up) in Tehelikan, a true isle of oil.
Here the oil literally streams into the
sa from hills an(ldelffs, which may be
said to be formed of ozokerite-in other
wiords, of crudle paraffine. On the east
ern shore of the Caspian it reappears at
v arious p)oints, as, for instance, at the
Neft or Naphtha hill, where the de
posits are officially valued at ?:35,000,
000.
THE FIRE GIANT'S sP'OrT.
Nowv, the fire giant who tends the
great laboratory beneath the Caspian
seemis to emulate the example of his
brethren in New Zealand and Tonga.
Hitherto he has been satisfied with
such sport as turning on such an oil
stream as that which gushed forth three
years ago from one of the Baku springs,
spouting with such force as to break to
pieces a three inch cast iron pipe wvhich
had beeni fastened over the wvell in order
to divert the flow to a different direc
tion. A neighboring oil spring, on!
being tapped, threw up a column of
petroleum to twice the height of the
Great Geyser in Iceland, forming a
.huge black fountain 200X feet in height
a fountain, howvever, attributed sole ly
to the removal of the pressure on the
confined gas, as there is no precep)tibkc
heat in these geysers. It was visible for
many miles around, andl on the first
day it potired forth about 50,000) bar
rels, and, with gradually diminishing
volume, continued to play for five
months, when it finally subsided, leav
ing its unfortunate owners, an Amieri
can company, well nigh ruined, by the
claims brought against it by neighbors
whose lands were destroyed by- the oil
flood.
On the night of the 15th of January
the inhabitants of B3aku were awakened
by a violent shock, which causedI all the
windows to rattle, and suddenly the
darkness of the nig~ht was illumninatedl
byan intense light, as though the city
wvere arlame. It proved. however, to) be
the reflection on the heavens of a great
tire at a distance: hut no one dreamit
that its locality lav~ within the earth.
Nor was this realized till the following
night, when the same awful glare
became visible: andI shortly beforet ido
night a terrilde explosion was he'artl,
followved by a vast column of flame,.
apparently 350 feect in heighut, whuich
shot up from the summit of Lok Batan.

was a calml nigh t, wit h scarcely a b,reamth
of wind, so the flaumes continued to
ascend qjuite vertically. carryling large
masses of dark miatter, which fell back
into the crater. C'onsiderable heat was
felt at the distance of fully a mile, and
the wvhole country was lighted by a
glare brighter thant thiat of the sun at
nioonay. Ti s lasted for about thirty
hours, but not continuously, t he columnii
occasjinally subsiding. The volumei of

IT HUNG MAJOR ANDRE
A :emarkable Story of a anous Piece of
Rope.
[New York Tclegrain.]
Coiled up inI the winidow of a Broad
way cigar stor ", aniolg a lot of bad
cigars and chewing tobacco, lies a
curiosity that has 1played a promi1nent
part in Amneric:n li-t(lry. It is a bit
of rope ai lut three feet long, with
iiotlin1g attractive about it, and yet
hmtln(reds Ihjave :askcdl its history. A
reporter, who (iidl the sane yesterday,
received this interesting aniswVer:
"Well, sir, t ha:t piece of hemp yu sce
in iy window is all that is left of the
rope that hung Major Andre, the spy.
h11e (:' :mai Piece, some six or right
feet long, I ' ;ieve, has been cut up
into little pieces ald gi ven away as
m1emilentoes, and tle piece there is all
that is left. It cale" int' m11y possesion
solmlewhat curiously. Several years ago
I kept a little eigar shop in Albany,
and one of the two mn1 working for
ie was a green hand(1 frmn u) the State
so:11ewhlere, who hal ainled in Albany
without a cent. le used to board at
my house, and one night he left, leaving
a board bill of $lO or $12 behind him
unpaid.
"Ie also left a small trunk and a let
ter, in which he asked me to keep the
trunk for him until he could redeem it
by paving his board. I kept the tr.nk
for nearly six year, and then, not
hearing from the lnan, I opened it.
Among other things I found this rope,
which the young man's grandfather
had taken from Andre's neck the day
he was hanged, and kept it as a me
m:lento of those stirring times. There
was also a little book with the rope-a
sart of ledger, in which the grandfather
an I his son had kept a record of those
to whom the pieces of rope had been
given, and whither they had gone.
"Three of the pieces had been sent to
England, one to Australia, another to
an English officer in Constantinople
and the rest were distributed among
different persons in the Utfited States.
"Some time I am going to try and
collect then again and then present
the entire rope to some historical mu
seull. It will be a curiosity anyway,
if not a valuable relic. As it is, few
know the strange rope's history. I
think I shall have a little sign painted
to put in the window with the rope so
that all who see it may know what
they are looking at."

The duties, of those who serve on
coroners' juries do not ordinarily sug
gest anything very funny, and yet
some laughable results conie from
their work, particularly if they
do not exactly uderstanid what is
exp)ected of them. An amusing story
is told of a verdict brotught in a Western
jury impanelled to inqtuire into the
cause of the decathi of a man supposed
to have committed suicide. Tfhe ver
diet wvas brief and to the point, the
foreman saying siily:
"We, the jury; find tihe dlecased
guilty as charged."
Another jury examined a great many
witnesses in the case of a man run over
by a railroad engine. The verdict was:
"We find himt to have come to his
death by being' euit ini two by a railroad
engine, whereby lhe ehoked to death."
A coroner's jury in thle b ackwoods of
MIissoturi heard all thle evidence in the
caseofa man killed by a runawvay team,1
and brotight in tile following v'erdict:
"ThIe jtury finds the deadl deceased to
have comie to his (deathi at the haniids of
a runiaway team, tihe horses thereof be
ing blameless, thybig frightened by
a dog."
It is told of an old G ermnan that lie
sat stolidly and' stupidly oni a coroner's
jury and listened to all the evidence,
after which he walkedl over toward the
corp:se with sonie degree of cturiosity.
Liftingr the cloth lie started back, turn
ed to the otheri ju rymemn in amiazenmnt
and affright, and cried otut:
"3Iine Gott, shentlemieni, dot man ish
dead."
A jtury in a 311issouiri rural commniity
delibeattd three htouris over the corpse
of ai woniani bturned by the explosion (of
a kerosene lamip. The following verdict
was then anniouniiced in writing:
"Resolved, That thle disze'a'ied was
burnt to dethi. T1hie joory."
A mani, supposed to be at trampl, was
found dead. ill the woods (out West. A
jtry inquired into the eatuse of his
death, anad rep)orted as follows:
"'The jtiry does not fliil that the

Seeing With a Rabbit's Eye.
B.u:rIMonE, June 1S.-The operation
of transplanting a clear piece of a rab
bit's cornea into the blind eye of a
patient, perforied ten days ago at the
Presbyterian Eye and Ear Charity
Hospital, has proved a success. At the
end of a week the bandages were re
nioved and the eye exposed to the light.
The place of the rabbit's cornea was
completely united to the hunlan eye
and had grown to the edge of the hole
niade in the bliini eye opposite the
pupil. The clear graft has become
cloudy inl the process of uniting to the
human eye. Already, however, it has
comienc"ed to clear up, and the man is
beginning to see. This he has not done
for inree years, when the eyes were
destroyed by lime. The operation of I
transplanting in the left eye was so
satisfactory that two days since Dr.
Chisolni made a similar operation on
the right eye.

The Reason Why
Ayer's Pills are so popnlar is, that
while always reliable as a cathartic
medicine, they never leave any ill
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from calo
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore, whether the patient
be old or young, they may be confi
dently administered.
In tile Southlern and Western States,
where derangements of the liver are so
general, Ayer's Pills have proved an in
estimable blessing. D. W. Baine, New
Berne, N. C., writes :
" I suffered a long time with stomach
and liver troubles. I tried various reml
edies, but received no benefit until I
commenced taking Ayer's Pills. These
pills benefited me at once. I took thlem
regularly for a few months, and my
health was completely restored."
Throughout New England, next to
lung diseases, Stomach and rowel
Cornplaints are the most prevalent.
Dys peps ia
and Constipation are almost universal.
Mr. Gallachier, a practical chemist, of
Itoxbury, Mass., who was long troubled
with Dyspepsia, writes:
' A friend induced me to try Ayer's
Pills, and, after taking one box without
much benefit, I was disposed to quit
them; but lhe urged perseverance, and,
before I had finished the second box, I
began to experience relief. I continued
taking them, at intervals, until I had
used eleven boxes. Suffice it to say.
that I am now a well man. and grateful
to your chemistry, which outstrips
mine."
The head and stomach are always in
sympathy ; hence the cause of most of
those dlist,ressing headachles, to which
so many, especially women, are subject.
Mrs. Harriet A. Marble, of Poughkeep
sie, N. Y., writes thlat for years she was
a martyr to headache, and never found
anything to give her more than tem
porary relief, until she began takirg
Ayer's Pills, since which she has been
in the enjoyment of perfect health.

Ire not selfish. But we want
ill the
Printing
that we are prepared to do.
It is not too much to say that
our work is equal to the best.
We can L,rint anything and
bind to some extent. That's
honest. We make a specialty
of everything needed in a town
like ours. We haven't said
a word about the
Steam Power
which we put in last spring.
It is a small beginning, and
should not be despised. The
first steam printing ever done
in Newberrv was in our estab
lishment, and it's still going
on. You know that steam
power is much more satisftc
tory then hand power in any
enterprise where power is to
be used. Our power is pro.
duced by a novel piece of
mechanism in the shape of an
engine no bigger than a stove!
Come in and see it in opera
.ion. We take delight in
seeing t ou about as well as
sking you to
and anything else you need
that we have not mentioned.
We guarantee satisfaction in
every particular. We put
Stationery in Pads
at a small trifle extra over the
ordinary loose sheets with or
without blotters. The pads
we use are excelled by none,
being very neat with inter
changeable blotters.

Prices

argument for your patronage
