Any one who rqay wish to hire an extra large fat czar who is soon to be out of a job will please apply to Tommie Fused. Four riding masters who went on a strike in New York prjve to be titled foreigners. Yet this is the most striking thing they have done. Frank Lawler, who was wofully defeated for sherifl of Chicago, now clamors for a job at doorkeeper of the House, but it isn’t at all likely that he will get the contract. Rome veracious chronicler tells us that crows live to the age of 1100 years. Hardly. That doesn’t seem probable. Ho must l>o talking about spring chickens—or ballet girls. Chicago is quivering with first-class aston ishment over the intimation from young Mrs. Snell that her brother-in-law Stone had something to do with the murder of old Millionaire SuelL Startling revelations a"e exoected. European correspondents say that, not withstanding official assurances to tbo con trary, the young Kiug of Spain is weak and not likely to live long. Iloval biood does not appear to give the baby king tbe royal flush of health. Despite the order issued by the govern ment prohibiting tbe immigration of peas ants and P< ii.h Jews to Brazil, 300,000 have left Russia for that country during the past three months. At that rate the czar's do minions would soon be depopulated. Now* we hear that Mr. Bert Shurt has just shot Miss Snyder, in Indiana, because she refused to marry him. No one can blame Mis Snyder for not wishing to exchange her name and love and beauty for one coarse Shurt that wason a tear. It isn’t reasonable. \t last accounts the democratic majority in Texas was 150,000, and still rising. Now Candidate Flannagan will wonder more than ever what he was there for. Voters didn’t seem to know that he was running. Else he must have run over the state line and got into Mexico. Veteran Vnux cf Philadelphia, threat ens to contest the election of the dem ocratic machine candidate, McAleer, who got in by but a small majority of doubtful legality. Many think the old gentleman was fairly eleoted aud ought to have tho seat He would make a creditable representative. At the present writing it does not seem at *ll likely that tho average eastern paper will ever be able to draw the line between a duel and an ordinary street fight in which weapons are used. Auv sort of single combat is a duel to them, even though it tie a drunken brawl or an extempore conflict with stale bologna sausages. Finally tho army beard, which is con sidering available sites for gun factories, seems to be getting down to tbe right place by the system of exclusion. Having visited Indianapolis, Hock Island and the Pacific const, the board will go to New Orleans this week and afterward visit Roanoke, Birmingham, and possibly come to Savan nah. , Another Republican Bcheme. The Philadelphia Press, the levling re j publican organ of Pennsylvania, having recovered to •cm'? extent from the effects i of tbe defeat which its party sustained at the recent election*, com -s to the front in a double leaded article in behalf of another scheme for keeping its party in power. The scheme is that congress shall fix tbe limits of the congressional districts. It seems to think that the present congress has enough smart men iq its ranks to so grryw) niander the states that the Republican party, even with the odis against it, will be able to elact not only a majority of the congress men in 181)2, but also a majority of tne presidential electors. It insitsrs, with ail its vigor, that con gress, as soon as it reassembles, shall pass an apportionment bill, and, as if suggest*, redistrict the states. It says that the new census shows that the northern states gaited a much greater percentage in popula tion than the southern ones in the last decade, and that, therefore, the gain in congressmen and electors will be almost wholly in the north. It does not hint, of course, that there is a suspicion in the public nued that tbe cen sus returns were so manipulated by Mr. Porter, the census superintendent, as to make it appear that the gain in population was far greater in the northe: n than in the southern state*, with the view of benefit ing tie Republican party. It is propabie tbit democrats in congress wiii have a great deal to say about Mr. Pcrter’s census before an apportionment bill is passed. His refusal to order a recount in New Y’ork city, although it has beea quite satisfactorily shown that there are about 290,000 more people in that city than were returned by the federa census enumerators, has raised the question whether his census is at all re liable. The /Yes..' anxiety that an apportionment bill shall Le at the earliest possible moment, and it* suggestion that the present congress shall designate the limit of the congressional districts, thus depriviug the states of a right they have al ways exercised, are sufficient to justify the suspicion that the census is a partisan one, and was purposely made to show results advantageous to the Republican party. Tne suggestion that congress shall do the districting will not meet with very general favor from the people. The encroachments of the national govern ment upon the rights of the states have left to the states out little of the power they ones enjoyed, and they will not willingly relinquish their right to define the congres sional district lines within their respective limit?. And it is far from certain that congress has the constitutional rignt to determine these lines, notwithstanding the assertion of the Press that it has. The Re publican party, however, never did have any respect for the constitution, and unless tbe democratic minority in congress can prevent it, thie congress, in all probability, will adopt the Press' suggestion. A Strange Want of Appreciation. There are some pieople in Charleston who do not appreciate the efforts of Savannah to give a portion of the people ot South Carolina much needed railroad facilities. The building of the South Bound, tho line of which runs pretty nearly thr >ugh tbe center of that state from the Savannah river to the North Carolina line, has awak ened Charleston from her slumber. Some of the Charlestonians are disposed to be a little cross at having tho quiet of their city disturbed by the building of the South Bound, and have said some unkind things about that road and its construction com pany. One of tbe things they have said is that it is a speculative scheme, and another is that it is doubtful if it will lie built. Of course they are oxcusuble to a certain extent for being vexed, hecause the South Bound will not only help Savannah won derfully, but will have rather a damaging effect upon South Carolina system of rail road*. They are mistaken, however, in encouraging the idea that the road will not be built. The fact is, tlie road is being con structed with all possible speed. Tho con tractors are pushing it forward as fast as they can, and the only thing that is com plained of is that they don’t push it along faster. The roa drawbridge, which is to span the Savannah river, is being built, and although work upon it has teen delayed a little, it will be completed in good time. It can bo stated pretty positively that the South Bound will be completed before the end of next year, and when it is completed it will be about the best railroad in the Eouth, and its equipment will be unsur passed by that of any other southern rail road. There is plenty of business for the several sea port3 on the South Atlantic coast, tho greatest of which is Savannah, and the next, of course, is our sister city of Charles ton. An exhibition run of the •‘carette,’’ a di minutive street car without a track, which bar been in use in Chicago for several weeks, was given in Philadelphia the other after noon. This httle “carette” is light and easy in motion, and no jolting or discomfort was felt in riding in it along the part cobble stone paving of the street. It cannot run on tho ordinary street car track, the dis tance between the wheels being greater than the oar track width. It avoids delays and blockades, aad stops at the curb to re ceive or discharge passengers. It seats twenty persohs, is drawn by two horses and has a conductor and a driver. Tt is said to be very popular in Chicago among the ladies and children, and would probably prove rather convenient for the streets of Savannah. Late advices from London state that Mr. Stanley will legally prosecute Capt. AV niter and others who have brought charges against him in connection with the controversy egarding the rear guard of the Emin relief expedition. Mr. Stanley has retained Mr. George Lewis and Sir Charles Russell to conduct his case. If this threatened action ever gets into court it will probably bring out the truth of the whole story. But threat! of prosecution have so often been used to allay public sus picion that this cannot be serious y regard ed until some definite action shall be taken. And Mr. Stanley owes it to hnnseif to be gin and push the prosecution without further delay. Germany i3 about to reduce her import duties ou grain, but in a way that will hurt j rather than benefit the United States, which country, with Russia, is to lie shut out from the benefits of the reduction. This proposed discriminating tariff is intended to promote trade with Austro-Hungary. Still Germany doesn’t seem to be a country that could well afford to shut herself out from general commercial intercourse with the world, as this discrimination is likely to do a. for her. THE MORNING NEWS : THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 13. 1890. A Word of Warning. In his letter, expressing regret that be could not be pres at at the c lebra’iou in , Savannah of the democratic victory. Hoa. Toimai F. Biyardra.d; “Let u* hope the democratic majority of the next House of Representatives will cot for git the condi tions upon which popular conddence can be 1 retained, nor underrate tneir great re | sporisibilities.” There is a warning in toe above which Lthe democrat c maj rity in the next con gress should heel. If the Democratic party uses its power with the so.e oojeit of bet \ terinj the condition of the people and pro m ting the prosperity of the country it will, in Dr.ri, in all probability, be intrusted with the administration of the government. Its coarse ia the Fifty-second congress will be closely watched ar.d al! it* mistakes noted. Parties are but the agents ot tne people, and when they neglect the people's interests, or ignore them, the people withdraw their confidence from them and put them in the minority to be disc:plined. The Republican party began to think it was the master of the people. It burdened them with enormous tares and the taxes went into the pockets of the few who fur nished the party with its corruption fund. It attempted to enact partisan legislation in order to intrench itseli in power by tbe help of the ignorant millions of blacks whom it proposed to drive to tbe polls to voto the republican ticket, and this sort of legis lation public sentiment would not sustain because it was unjast, and because it would have injired the business interests of the country. It wasted hundreds of millions of dollars of the people's money in pensions not so much bocauso it wanted to do justice to the veterans of the civil war as to hold the soldiers' vote. Tne people virtually said that the public treasury should not be raided for party purposes. The Democratic party is the party of the people. It ought to know what the people need. It does know, and if it uses its vic tory in a wise and conservative way in meeting the people's needs it will be given not only tbe control of the government, but also a long lease of power. Mr. Samuel Plimsoll, an English member of parliament who ha3 done much for poor Jack the sailor, is attempting now by legis lative enactment to bring about the prohi bition of the importation into the United Kingdom of live cattle from any port or place west of tbe twelftth parallel of west longitude from Greenwich, if intended to be sold for food. The recent loss of the cattle ship Erin, with all on board, has attracted attention to the overcrowding of such ves sel-; and to the terriblo suffering* of the ani mals, as well as to the dangers to human life; and the crusade in which Mr. Plimsoll is engaged seems to be eminently humane. It is claimed that meat—not frozen, but re frigerated—will not suff-r in quality by a transatlantic voyage, and if this be so tbe movement in question should be encour agod. It would be a measure of economy in freight charges, beside giving work to a gre it many people on this side. Citizens of Richmond have inaugurated a movement for the purpose of erecting in Virginia a suitable monument to Com mander Matthew F. Maury, of the United States navy, who has bean called “The Pathflnder of the Sea.” Not ohly the nau tical, but also the commercial world owe a debt of gratitude to Maury for his contri butions to maritime science. He was the first to mark out specific routes to be fol lowed in crossing the Atlantic. He also in stituted the system of deep sea-sounding, and was the first to suggest, the establish ment of telegraphic communication be tween the continents by ocean cable. For eign governments and institutions of learn ing. vied with each other in doing honor to this great thinker and discoverer; and it would be a worthy tribute to his memory to perpetuate it in brouze or marble. And it is a tribute in which the whole country should tat,e part. For his work has bene fited alike the whole world. Great Britain’s b>ardof trade has issued stringent regulations to secure the safety of the public from the dangers attending the use of electric currents of high tension. In general consumers are to have a low pres sure supply only, but it is stated that “ou joint application of the consumer and the underteker the board of trade may permit of a high pressure supply for special pur poses.” In England the word undertaker does not have the special meaning to which it is restricted in this country. This seems to be only a proper regard for public safety which might well be emulated iu this country. Judge Lumpkin, elected associate justice of the supreme court the other day to suc ceed Justice Blanford, is, only 42 years of age. Ha is a graduate of the state univer sity, being a member of the class of 1868. He was solicitor general for five years and senator for one term. He was judge of the Northern circuit, with two years to serve, when chosen associate justice. That he is an exceptionally able man is admitted bv all who have had an opportunity to of his ability. Recently M. Dymasinski, a novelist, was engaged by the Warsaw Courier to accom pany, in disguise, a party of Polish immi grants to Brazil and write up their experi ences in a series of novels. This sounds like American newspaper enterprise, with the difference that an American newspaper would be more apt to instruct its corres pondent to stick to the facts and let the fic ion go. That is the chief difference be tween European and American ne .vspaper methods. Lord Hartiugton seems to have practi cally adopted the principle of home rule. He has no objection to it for Scotland, be lieving that Su itchmen would use it wisely and well. But he distrusts the advisability of granting it to Ireland for fear that the power would bo abused. Yet he has reached a point where argument may win him over to the Irish as well as the Scotch cause, fi’hat the Irish should do now is to demon strate their capacity to wisely govern them selves. Trusts and combination! will have to be ca eful. At the suit of the people the Chi c go gas tru t, a mammoth corporation, was fin id $lO and costs the other day. But that small fine carried with it sweeping order forever disbarring the trust from holding stock, even a minority, of any other gas company or electric light com pany. Yet it is by no means clear that the court had ary such legal authority under the national constitution. Monday last the Lord Mayor of London was duly installed, with the customary pomp and ceremony, and at night he entertained the ministry with the usual gorgeous ban quet at Guild ball,at which the populace heartily devoured tb Savory spread.

Mrs. Blaine lacks the personal magnetism which her husband has in such a striking de gree, and does not know how to make her call ers always at home.

M **l have observed. r continued Mr. Blaine, "that on *reat occasions it is almost always women who have driven us the strongest proofs of virtue and devocion. The reason for this is that, with men. either go and or bad qualities are the result of calculation, while in woman they are the result of impulses, and impulses usually spring from the best that is iu us. 1 ' A Soldier’s Idea of Fun. have heard different versions of what constitute 1 fun, but we hear! anew one the other day from an old soldier, says the West Chester *Pa ) R>co and. At Gettysburg, about the time of Pickett's charge, tn- relator was stationed down toward the e.lije of the wheat field and ne was s-nt out in charge of a squad to reliive the picket in a copse of woods. Meeting tae sergeant he was to relieve he as iced him what hs orders were. He was informed, end among other things the pickets wero not to fire. “Why," said the relieving sergeant, "they are firing right now. Why don't yon stop them*'* 1 "Oh. well, they are just having a little fun in there. The confederates have got possession of a stretch of stone wall and our boys swear they are going to take It away from them.” Our informant wont in and coon he and his men were as deep in the "fun” as their prede cessors, notwithstanding their orders not to fire. They kept it up, dodging behind trees and working around the woods until they got a re. ran in on the stooe wall and captured it. They had their fun and accomplished tneir object. He Nearly Missed It. hen a young newspaper man was married a short time ago, says the Sew York Tribune , his arrangements at theofflee were such that it was impossible for him .lust then to go away on the usual bridal tour, "Nerer mind, dear,” said he to his wife, "we will have our tour later, and it won't be so bad after all, for we will have all the more money then to enjoy it with." The young bride was somewhat disappointed, natur fdly. but was happy enough when she had set tied down to home life with her husband in cosy apartments up town. At last the youug man got a vacation and made arrangements for the tour without having taken which no bride ever oould be supremely nappy. The trunks were bemg naked when the husband handed the wallet to his wife, say ing. “You had better take care of that, dear All our money is in it and it will Be safer with you than with me,” Thu wife was wonderfully pleased at the great financial trust reposed in her, and she determined that no robber should pick her pocket of the treasure. Her husband had gone out to arrange for a carriage, acd th bride, hoping to do something t.oat would be regarded especially prudent, placed the wallet in the bottom of the trunk containing a lot of dresses and other things. Tnis happened to be a trunk that was to go as excess baggage, and was calledf jr in advance of the re- 1 of the lug gage. The trunk was sunt nwav. aud later the regular baggage wagon came around for the rest of the luggage. The young couple drove to the station where the young man said: "Let me have the wallet ana I’ll go buy the tickets.” T e bride turned pale, turned red. and at last began to cry. “I put it in the extra trunk,” she sobbed, "to no one could steal it from me.” "Thedeuce!" exclalmei her husband, who was in a serious dilemma. He soothed his bride however, saying It would come out all right. Hurrying to the baggage room be found that the trunk had gone ny express an hour hefnr checked through to Niagara Falls, as had been arranged for. The intention had been to save expense by sand ing the extra baggage through to Niagara Falls, as it was not needed at once, the couple desir ing to siiend a day or two at other points not so far away. The young man had only some small change left Leaving his wife at the station he rnshed down town to the office and explained affairs to the cashier, wno gav e him the money needed to carry out his plaiiß. The tour began with a later train, and the wallet was recovered al! right. The cashier thought the story too good to keep, and when the young man caine back it was always his turn "to treat” for a week Met a “Bunco Steerer.” A well-known artist tells a story of “fere warned, forearmed.” AVhen he was a student in Boston, says the New York Tribune, he and several others boarded with a woman whose husband was a detective. The detective told them from time to time stories about interest ing experiences which be had had and explained the methods of carrying on “bunco games.” There are few nnv “bunco dodges.” Nearlv all of them are variations of one or two stock schemes. “Among other things which the detectives told us.” said Mr. L in giving the story to his friends one evening, “is an epigram in which Robert G. Ingersoll aiso believes. It is that the man who begins a statement with a yawn is a liar. I tell you this now, although tne yawn comes in later. I had often heard mv friend, the detective, tell of the ‘diamond game.’ “I was reading in a car once on my way from Boston to New York long after I had lost sight of the detective when someone behind me c apped me vigorously on the bacx, saying: ‘Hello, Charley, old man.’ “ ‘Mv name isn't Charley.' I said sweetly. “ ‘Oh, I beg your pardon,' said the man who had slapped me so generously. 'I thought you were a friend whom I often meet on the road, lama commercial traveler- drummer*, we cali ourselves.’ Then he went on to another seat Presently he came back “ ‘ls this seat engaged?' he asked. “ ‘Oh, no,’ I answered pleasantly. “ T hope you will excuse me for my rude ness,’ he said. T felt very much like a fool when 1 saw what I had done.' “He chatted entertainingly for a while, and seemed a very decent fellow. Taen he yawned and I looked at him. “ -My uncle died the other day.’ said he ’“Did he?’ “ ‘He didn't treat his nephew very gener ously.’ “ 'H-m-m.’ “ He was pretty well off, was my uncle, and he left none of his money to me.’ “He yawned. •Nothing except a ring. I don't care for rings myself, but he always wore the dia mond —prized it highly. It is said to be worth $290 or S3O . I never wore a ring in my life.’ “ ‘Have you got the ring with you?’ I asked “ ‘Oh, yes, I have it in ray pocket.’ “ ‘How much is it worth?' “ ‘lt isn’t worth much to me, because I have no use for it.’ “ ‘Wha - w ould you take for it?” “‘Oh. anything—s3o, say.’ “‘1 couldn’t afford to give that much for a ring.’ “‘Well, say $25.' “ 'That's a little more than I could afford.’ "The drummer turned the stone in his hand and looked at it. In the seat behind us was a man wuo, i knew, was watching us and listen ing. He had leaned forward until his head was over the back of our seat. He was so near that I could feel his breath. 1 understood that he was waiting to s e if I should allow myself to be'buncoed.' I threw my head back against the cushion and tilted my bat over my eyes The drummer was still meditating over the ring “‘See here. Jimmy.' I said, "I got six months for the same game, see?’ "The man behind me burst into a roar of laughter. Jove' said he, ‘I thought you were booked The 'drummer' was scurrying down the aisle, making for another car. Go to the Producer If you desire to get a pure article of food.

Anew device, which will be of interest to dealers of hosiery in the United States, has been recently patented in several Europsac countries and an application for a patent 1* on file in the American patent office. Said device consists of a c >mbination stocking and carter made by ruDDin? a rubber elastic band through a welt at of the HtockiD*. Th* ends of the elastic appear outside of tne welt, and may be arranged to fasten with a button or a fancy clasp similar to those used on kid gloves.

In Manitoba and the western part of British .America, where I spent some time this summers I came in contact with a very peculiar race of Indians, They belong to no particular tribe, and, in fact, to no particular race, having In dian, Scotch anti French blood in their veins, ihcy are the descendants of tbe old Scotch agents of the Hudson Bay Company and their Indian wives, with a dash of French blood from the Canadian woodsmen. Their hair is fre quently of a li .ht brown, and wavy. They speak bad French, and all have the broad Scotcn b*ii*r. Trier hold themselves aloof from the full-blooded Indians and the French half-bloods. They are the best carriers to be found, tor no other Indians can compare with them as run ners. Sixty miles a daj* is no uncommon jour ney for them. By constant inter marriage they have preserved and Btr*ea&thened their pecu liar i ties, and consider themselves a separate tribe. They number about 5,090. There are a vast number of fine dresses from all parts of the world in the national museum, and the most extraordinary article of this kind is the S 1.000,000 feather cape. This comes from the Sandwich Islands, and is made up of red and yellow feathers so fastened together that they overlap each other and form a smooth surface T.iese feathers shine like the finest of floss si.k, and the red feathers are far prettier thna the yellow ones. It is the yellow feathers howeveMhat are expensive. They are about an inch long, and are worth in the country m. w h‘ they are found 50 cents apiece. They were in times past taken for raxes bv me Hawaiian kings Tkey are taken from a little bird known as the Uno, which are very diffi cult to capture. Each bird lias two of these yellow feathers under his wing, and the birds are caught ia traps and the feathers are pulled out and they are then fre and There is a in the museum from the Prince of the Sand wich Islands, who states that it took mo e than 100 years to make this cape, and the au thorities of the museum say that it is worth more than the finest diamond in the English regalia. In plastic art we find that the debt it owes to woman is less for work than inspiration; from ts beginning her influence has been the mainspring of iis development. The story is very beautiful: in the middle of the seventh century before Christ a pot ter lived in Lyconia and there fol lowed his art. He had a beautiful daughter n med Kora. Although were obliged to go veiled in the market place her crace and bearing won the ardent admiration of a strange youth. He sought to be employed by the pott-r as an assist ant and succeeded, still further gaining his wish by securing a place in the j’ounir girl'* heart. The life of the father, daughter and lover was an ideal of Grecian simplicity and beauty. AVhen the time came for the lovers’ temporary separation they were sad. The last evening, as they sat together. Kora noticed the shadow of her friend’s profile on the wall, and taking a piece of charcoal traced the noble out line. The next day her father, seeing the sketch and recognizing the likeness, filled it in with clay, so modeling it as to represent the young man's features. Thus we have made the first portrait medallion. Qi een Victoria's dairy is of stone, erected, as the inscription on the frieze tells us. in the twenty-first year of Victoria's reign. It is at tached to the dwelling house of the dairy woman, or rather the dwelling house is at tached to it. The day was oppressively warm, and the transition from the outer air into its cool, dimprec.ncts was most grateful The room is S7 feet long by 23 wide. It is lined throughout -floor, wall*, and high roof -with tiles iu cool tones; bass reliefs on some'of these tiles represent the seasons aud kindred subjects Medalion busts of the royal family are inserted in the walls. The dairy was built before tho marriage of the Prince of Wales, and of those who have married Into the royal family the only medalion is that of the late Emperor Frederick On small brackets at one eud stand marb.e busts of Victoria and Albert. By way of added decoration, bits of precious old cjina are ranged on snelves in sba low r-cesses. Under the tables the floor is suuk a few inches, and this cavity is filled with water, while a pretty fountain in the center of the room is constantly playing. The rec-pta c.es for milk are of white china rimmed with gilt, and tne cr-am. to the eye. was delectable, the blitter, of w hicb numerous pats lay upon tbe cool marble, was truly golden, though not more so than I have seen in New Engla and Kitch ens. The dairy woman, who was Scotch said it was the buttercups which the cows ate that gave to it its golden hue, “Do you think so*’’ I said. “Certainly," was the reply. “Butter is always yellow after buttercups come. And’’— triumphantly—'that’s why they are called buttercups, hecause they make the butter yel low!” J To the traveler and tourist no spot in East ern United States is of more interest than Sul livan county. New York, whose confines contain more picturesque beauty than any area of like dimensions east of the Rocity mountains Its shaded vale, and abrupt, wooded hills loftv ridges of the latter often taking on all the characteristics of true mountain, are the origi nals of many of the fine paintings that gra-e the spacious parlors of the New York, Philadel phia and Boston K millionaires. Picturesque scenery is. however, not the only claim Sullivan county has on the attention of people who reg ularly make sight-seeing trips. Within its limits nature has left evidence of some of her most astonishing freaks Joseph McLaury owns a farm in Sullivan county, the title to which also gives him possession of the famous New York "rocking stone," the greatest curiosity in New England. At first sight it probably would not attract more than passin g notice, but it is when a second and closer observation is made that the wonderful and delicate hand of nature is seen both in its composition and the remarkable po sition which it occupies. The total weight of the immense boulder has been variously esti mated at from forty to sixty tons, and its bulk at from 500 to TOO cubic feet. It is almost per fectly round, much resembling a huge orange and so nicely balanced on a table of stone as to be easily set in motion by a single man provid ing the operator exerts his strength on the north or south sides. On either of the other sides the combined strength of forty elephants would not be sufficient to cause t e least oscil lation. Although it can be rocked Pack and forth with perfect eaee, all tin men that could £et around It would not be equal to the task of it from the pivot upon which it has rested since the days of the stone age man, the cave bear and the glacial epoch. The Me- Laury farm, upon whiou it is situated, is iu au elevated vadey some 1,500 feet abov * the sea level. The body of the o6Jiliatinsr mass is composed of a species of soft sandstone, which has become loose and badly decomposed by ex posure, ali except the portions underneath, which are still intact an I solid.
