Poetry, cherry blossoms sod ehrysanthemutns are at a sad discount in conflict with the natural advantages and organized resources of the western world. That so much has been done is marvelous; that mach more will be done is a natural expectancy; but the load is enor- mous and the shoulders few. For, after all, the Japan of today is the emotion of a few minds who, act- ing together, as did the great fathers of the American republic, have pro- duced a reversal of habits in indus- try and government so radical as to ezeite the utmost amazement and a doubt whether this wisdom can en- dure and perpetuate itself On such lines. ACTION OF LIME. 'The chemical action of limo in soils is very striking. It deem - awe the dormant mineral plant food, and thus renders available for the plant phoephorie acid and pot- ash e .which otherwise would remain Inert in the soil' .It acts on the ivegeteble organic matter in the soil and converts part of it into nitro- gen componnds available for the plant. It is very effective in sweet- eniag sour lands, and thus hinders more disease env* in such soil; it eipeeially improves, the quality of herbage.

At a recent meeting of the Acade- mie des Sciences de Paris, a report was presented on some experiments made at Conearneau laboratory with reference to the methods that should be used to prevent aocidentt calmed by contaminated oysters. Tile author has been able to convince himself that it is possible to render shellfish barmiest, even after they have been reared in the most unsani- tary of surroundings, by placing them for a fortnight in filtered wa- ter before selling then to the public. Ile states, moreover, that this form of \quarantine\ in pure, water has no evil effects on the quality of the oysters, If all this be so, there is surely no necessity to run the risk of typhoid fever from oysters polluted by sewage. Possibly some will re- member the contamination caused in Dublin several years ago hy an epi- demic of a fatal type of typhoid fever traced finally to the oysters fattened upon the pollutions from the drains. Even today there are many who justly dread the oyster taken front the beat known beds in Aritish waters.—Montreal Herald. A startling ineiden te related of 311th ,Ilussar regiment, who, Was iding with the troops in the neighborhood of the garrison of Merseburg, when sud- denly his horse, a high -met t led charger, took fright and bolted. His efforts to restrain the animal were fruitless. Giving the horse the rein, the Officer waited for a chance to spring from the saddle. To his dis- may, the animal suddenly swerved towards A Piece of level ground, which ended in a cliff overhanging the.abore. In a few moments both horse and rider would be over the edge. But a bright flesh was seen for a Moment, sad the sabre of the offleer fell with deadly effect upon the head of his steed. Just in time the- officer leaped from the :middle and escinfed. • • an officer in the ' C9unty Clerk Dralle Commenced Job Will now Examine all the Scales Throughout the County 1;11 (Special to theGrapbic.)

GUARDING OLD MANUSCRIPTS Government Finds an Additional Safat guard for Itrliare Documents In g Japan's* Bilk. In the preservation of its rare manuscripts and, hooka the govern- ment hita .found, an additional safe- guard in Japanese silk. Its use has removed a fear *that long existed in . the minds of li- . .tarian,s4pt th4joihe . tP,an_u; their original elements. Fortunate - 31 0 4 ~ 1 \ , ab4 ,- 4eturit-to ths ly, hOwever, the employment of a i. way'to be made silk9of extreme thinness and trans- parency has settled the question of the life of these manuscripts for the next two or three hundred years at least. By that time, perhaps, some other method may be discovered. This silk is thinner than the thin- nest tissue paper, the threads being finer than spider webs. It iA pasted over the manuscript so firmly that it wards off all dust and air, and yet is so transparent that it does not inter- fere any - more with the appearance of the manuscript than would an ordinary pane of glass. It strength- ens the manuscript so that the dan- ger of handling is reduced to a minimum. For some time past the library of congress has had in hand the CY:- 6111141MM anti protection of all of its old manuscripts, employing for the purpose the silk mentioned. Un- less one be an expert in old manu- scripts, he is unable to recognize the fact that the silk has been used.— Harper's Magazine.

(8Pe A attempt at jail breaking was frus ated Monday night by some of th more conservative prisoners con 1 in the county jail, and Fisco still has a full roll PREVALENCE OF SCANDIUM, Sir W. Crookes states that scan- diurn has been found to the extent of more than one per vent. in the mineral wilkite from Finland, and in smn11 amounts for many other minerals. By a systematic series of fractionations it is possible to sep- arate scandium front most aasoeiated elements; ytterbium is OW IIJOSt dif- fictilt to separate because its nitrate is decomposed almost as readily as scandium nitrate. In view of the atomic weight relationships and of the •frequency with which these ele- ments 2ceur together in nature it is suggeaad that yttrium and scandium are degradation .products of ytter- bium. Scandiarn caw be separated trete yttrium and ytterbium by pre- cipitation AA , e tan i t ro beta a te.- Scientific American. ••• Subscribe for the Graphic. • The GRAM is an advertiser.

An ingenious'idan which has been suggested for measuring the altituda of an aeroplane, and which, while it requires the services of an inde- pendent operator, demands no other apparatus than an accurate amp watch, is the acoustic method. Writing of it in eassier's Magazine, Henry Harrison Suplee says: \Any sharp sound, such as a quiek whistle, or report which may be d:fferentia- fed from the noise of the machine it- self, will be returned to the ear of the operator in the form of an echo from the surface of the earth. If, therefore, the time elapsing between the sound and the echo be noted, the corresponding distance may ix, esti- mated from the known velocity of sound. Taking the velocity of sound at 1,100 feet a secOnd, or a little more than 100 feet for a tenth of a second, and, remembering that it is the double distance, going and re m turning, which is thus computed, the error of observation would be be- tween 80 and 60 feet for one -tenth of a second.\ MORE OF A SINECURE. easy job will suit tne, sena- tor.\ \How about winding the clocks every week?\ ;.\I might make that do.
