ICarth fissures were formed over an area larger than the United Kingdom, and solid streams of sand and water were forced to a height of three to five feet above ground from countless sand vents. Sakt, or rice wine, has been used In Japan more than 2.000 years. Dr. Loew of Munich says it Is prepared by first steaming iho rice and then im pregnating with a species of ferment, mixing with water and fermenting with the aid of yeast from rise straw.

Saki contains from 14 to 16 per cent of alcohol, or about five times as much as the German beer. The color of natural waters has been specially studied by Prof. H - Spring of the University of Dlege. In a re cent address to scientific men he showed experimentally that the ttue color of pure water Is blue, and that this Is characteristic of the water it self and is not due to the reflection from the surface, nor from suspended particles.

A material lately introduc'd by Van M'dekebekc for the phosphorescent screens used In 1 experiments with Roentgen rays is reported to have; proven mueh more sensitive than any substance hitherto tried. It ts uran ium ammonium fluoride, produced by dissolving 1 gramme of uranium ni trate In 4 grammes <)t boiling water, adding 1 1-2 grammes of amonlum fluoride, and boiling a few minutes. The solution should he rrce from pre cipitate. On cooling, octahedral crys tals are deposit; ,1 within an hour, and the solution los's Its pale yellow color, becoming perfectly colorless. The crys tals are repeatedly washed with cold venter, by which they are not affected, although soluble In hot water. The preparation Is dried, and for luminous screens Is mixed with collodion or gellatine. Tile quality of these screens depends upon the perfect development of the crystals. The Pole's Legacy. The question of whether the holy see may lawfully, become the recipi ent of legacies;,Vi Italy without pre viously obtaining, the authorization of the Italian government, has Just, writes our Kona- correspondent, been raised Wore 'the civil tribunal of Rome.

This transaction, w hleh cannot l said to reflect very favorably on th generosity • and equity of he tv ! father's legal advisers. enriiß*-*! th* disappointed heir to such a point that he refused to give up the money to Monaml, and raised the legal question In the civil tribunal as t<* whether the holy see had a tight to accept and to negotiate a legacy without the author ization of the government.

The holy sev. hy Its unbecoming at tempt to grasp more, and by Its ne glect of the heir's modest request, be sides rutting a peculiar figure, has now brought a hornet’s nest about It's head. hml the speculating merchant will have to wait some time before the 15,- 000 francs are returned to him from the coffers of the Vatican. A question of a similar nature will shortly be discussed before the su preme court of cassation of Rome, the plaintiffs being the lnteran chapter, who claim that, ns the lateran palace and adjoining edifices have been left to the holy see by the law of guaran tees after 1870, the chapter should be reintegrated In the possession of all its numerous lands, rents and privileges, afriountlng to some millions of lire, in the Roman province, and which were confiscated by the Italians.— London Chiiinicle.
