SCIENCE AM) ART NOTES.
The Agricultural College of Japan
hai been in existence three years, and a
targe number of students have been edu
cated in it. The government recog
nizes its usefulness and aids in various
ways.
Ah evidence of the enlightened con
dition of the .fapane-oas c jjnpared with
their neighbors in Chins, it is interest'
ing to learn that the duplex eystem of
telegraphy with the Morse inHtciuneßl
has hern in successful working for Borne
months past on one of the long&t of Ute
government lines, that between Yoko
hama, Kobe and Nagjuaki. i
In the Vatican library at Hume there
is a book of accounts which records the
fact that between 1586 and 1689
Sixtus V eximnded 5/339 scudi (about
883 500) to have a portion of the baths
of Diocletian destroyed to their founda
tions, and that in less than three years
2.560,000 cubic feet of masonry were
broken in pieces.
The French Chamber., at the instiga
gation of M. de Freytinet, have voted a
sum of 600,000 francs for the sending
of exploring missions into the remoter
parts of Algiers and Senegal. Their
immediate object is to trace the lines
of future railways, but the indirect in
fluence on the extehsldn of our geo
graphical knowledge is most important.
Mr. C. A. Ahiibuhnei*. is theau'hority
for the statement, that since the dis
covery of petroleum by Col. Drake, in
1859, Pennsvlvania had produced up to
the end of 1879, not less than 133,262,-
039 barrels of crude oil, valued nt 8340,-
709.672. His theory of the origin of the
oil is that the oil sauds are the mere
reservoirs which contain the product of
the decomposition of vegetable and
animal life of the l)pyo fan epoch.
Dynamite has lately been put to a
new use. it is said that in the Bernese
Oberland this winter the ground is so
hard that before a grave can bo dug
great fires have to be made in the
Church-yards to h.osen tbe eoil, but in
some instances the heat, couldnpt pene
trate sufficiently far, and the grave-dig
gers had to complete ih< ir work with the
aid'of dynamite.
Tm: interesting fact may b, noted
that the Cortes has recently demon
strated the existence <d glycogen in in
fusoria, having treated them with
iodised serum, inesubstarce with which
Mr. Ranvier' proved glycogen to exist
in lympsthic cells. This verifies still
further the application of the general
law formulated by Claude Rernard, that
wherever we find nutrition [i.e. life] we
find glycogenesis.
M. Peruche has invented a new
electric candle, which consists of three
carbons, two being cylindrical, 4 mm.
in diameter, and applied to each other.
The third square 5 mm. thick, placed in
the angle formed by the others. The
holders a e capable of oscillation, the
iquare carbon being held hy a spring in
contact with the olliers, while no circuit
passes, but when the curient begins
takes its separate position.
The immense coal fields of the
Chinese Empire are being slowly devel
oped, die superstitious of thia strange
people being overcome. In a district
near Tchang, on the Upper Yang-tsc-
Kiang, a coal-field extending over
seventy-five square miles has been
tapped. At Wo-tse kow ten beds of
coal have been discovered; one of them,
lying only 100 Rot below the surface, is
being worked, and at least, 1,200,000
tons of anthracite have been exposed.
The “damposcope” is the name given
by its inventor to and instrument de
signed to detect the presence of fire
damp in mines. The principle emb idled
in it is that, when a tuning fork is
sounded and brought near a tube of a
certain length full of *ir, the tube will
resound to the note produced by the
fork. Hy this machine the tire damp in
a mine can be ertiioated to the amount
of 0.5 per cent. It has already been
adopted in some of the minesol Lanark
shire, Scotland.
An ancient mound resembling the
Aztec mounds of tire Mississippi Val
iev, has been discovered in Japan. A
scientific examination of the remains
that have been dug up from it furuishca
reason for believing that cannibalism
was practiced by the Japanese in pre
historic times. The human lames that
were found bones of beasts
gave evidence that the flesh upon them
nad been cooked, and the marks still
left upon the joints are such as could
have been made only by hitman teeth.
A keen competition piomises to take
place between the competitms in India
for the prize of 50.QU0 rupees for the
best invention, amflo,ooo for the second
best, of a machine to work and prepare
the Rhea filler, which is worth 8200 to
8250 per ton in England. The judges
will be called upon to describe the pro
ce-s and determine if the conditions.of
the Government notification have been
complied with, while the quality of the
fiber produced will be left to experts at
home.
A PAi'EKon longevity, by Dr. Richard
son. of England, reminds us of a report
made by Dr. G. Heard, of New York, in
1874. He then stated that his researches
led him to conclude: 1. That brain
working classes—clergymen, lawyers,
physicians, merchants, scientists and
men of letters—live very much longer
than the muscle-working classes. 2.
Those who follow occupations that call
for both brain and muscle are onger
lived than those who live by occupations
that are purely manual. 3. ThsJ the
greatest and hardest brain-workers of
history have lived longer, on an average,
than brain-workers of ordinary ability.
4. That clergymen! are lonirer lived than
other brain-workers. 5. That longevity
increases very greatly with the advance
of civilization, and that this increase is
too marked to be explained merely by
improved sanitary knowledge.
Oleomargarine has only one advan
tage that we ever heard of. If you
don’t wish to use it as butter—and the
chances are pretty heavy that you don’t
—you have only to run a wick throu.-h
it and u-e it for candles. It is also use
ful for chalking the bridge of the nose, \
in case of local colds.
The rise in the price of paper has its I
good features, too. Peruvian money
will be worth something if the rise con
tiuuea.
The Whangdoodle of Texas.
f«nn Antcmfo HerMd.’
From Wilson County he came; his
name is L. A. Edmondion. Edmond
«>n stands in his socks over six feet tall.
He is bearded “like a yard,” and was
drefeed in leather pants. When he en
tered a saloon on the Military Plaza his
boots sounded on the floor like the
thumping iof a pair of pile-drivers.
Whenheaho ok his leonine head his long
hair twhrte<| about like black-snakes.
“ Give me ftome beer,” he icared. “ I
am dry! - Give mea three-gallon bucket
full to the brim, and no foam! lam
dry! I was weaned on herring brine,
and don’t eat nothing now but mush
made of gunpowder and fiah sail 1”
The bar-keeper filled a quart glass—
the deepest vessel in the house—and this
was repeated fourtimjs. Each glass the
thirsty man emptied at a gulp; at the
fourth he said, “Wait a minnit.” Just
then a small man entered and Edmund
son, taking the sm’dl man up as if he
was a baby, said, “Give hit beer; bit’s
dry.”
The little man was supplied, restored
to his feet, and shrank away from ibe
giant, glancing back from fl corner, like
a mouse looking at a Newfoundland
dog.
Once more the wild man opened his
mouth, and it presented the appearance
of a cave opening, overgrown with
siimac In autumn.
“ I am the man that ketched a wild
mustang by the tail and hilt him till his
chine came out all the way to his ears;
1 can lick a double-deck hog-car full of
panthers, with nothing but a corn-e/itter
to fight with, and I can dance a jig on
the point of a copper lightning-rod. I
ain’t liable to cold, but when 1 sneeze,
the reporters telegraphs a fresh earth
quake in Cuby; when I give a whoop,
the dishes rattle on the Russian King’s
table till old Gotchearmolikichikoph
swears that a keg of Nihilist gunpowder
has just popped in the cellar, and the
Empress has to hunt her new teeth from
her coffee-cup. Give me some beer.”
This time he struck the counter with
his fist and jarred the anchor bolt of
the whisky bell-punch loose, causing
the machine to xuubackward like Heze
kiah’s sun-dial, and the record of 400,-
000 drinks disappeared from the dials—
an instantaneous loss of 88,000 to the
State of Texas.
What to J>o in Case of Fire.
Tne loose garments worn by women
and children expose them to especial
danger from fire. If the fire starts from
the bottom of the drees, the natural up
ward tendency of the flame soon enve
lopes the whole person, unless by self
control aud presence of mind the neces
sary care be taken by the sufferer, or
some one near, without a moment’s
hesitation. To obey the first impulse
aud open the doors and rush out is sure
dustruotiou. The only safety is to fall
down instantly on the floor, and roll
over on to the fire, snatching a woollen
shawl or rug, if near, to wrap round the
body. One is comparatively safe by
rolling over and over, for the flames will
not rise to the face, and the lungs and
breathing will be less likely to be injured.
Those who may be in the room, or may
come in, have their work plainly before
them. Keep doors and windows closed ;
snatch the first woollen thing to be
found—a table cover—without thinking
of the work of’art on it. Pull it off!
Who cares where the bri a brar rolls to?
It is a human life in danger. Or snatch
a woollen shawl from a chair, a curtain
or a rug; anything-that one human
form is valueablo. Wrap the sufferer
instantly into something that is woollen
—the coat from your back, if nothing
else offers—and thus closely wrapped
roll her on the floor in the folds.
Scores of lives have been saved in this
why, lost for want of such immediate
action. In case the house is on fire
there shoulifhe one “ captain,” if possi
ble. who can lead the less self-possessed
out of the burning building. Everv
•lour, window, or apertuie through
which air can find entrance should be
closely shut except during egress. There
are always eight or ten inches of pure
air close to the floor, and if one cannot
walk erect through the smoke, he should,
as s >on as enveloped in some woollen
article, drop on the floor on the hands
and knees aud crawl out. A silk handker
chief, or piece of flannel or woollen
Stocking, wet and put over the face, will
enable one to breathe in dense smoke.
To-Morrow.
“I will plow my field to-morrow,”
said Jeannot; “I must not lose any
time, as the season is advancing; ami if
I neglect to cultivate my field I shall
have no wheat, and as a consequence no
bread.”
To-morrow arrived. Jeannot was up
by daylight, and was about g--ing out to
get his plbw, when one of nis friends
came to invite him to a family festival.
Jeannot hesitated at first; but on re
flecting a little he said, “A day sooner
or later makes no differ?nee for my busi
ness, while a dav of pleasure once lost
is always lost.” He went to the festival
of his friend.
The itext day he was obliged to rest
himself, because he had eaten a little too
much, and drank a little too much, and
had a headache. “To-morrow 1 will
make up for this,” said he to himself.
To-morrow came: it rained. Jeannot,
to his great grief, was unable to get out
all day.
The" following day it was fine, and
Jeannot felt himself full of courage;
but unfortunately his horse was sick in
his turn. Jeannot cursed the poor
beast.
The following day was a holiday,
and he could not, of course, work. A
new week had commenced, and in a new
week a great deal of work may he done.
He began by going to a fair in the
neighborhood; he had never failed to
attend it; it was the finest fair held
within ten miles. He went afterward
to a christening of a child of one of his
nearest relations; aud afteward to a
burial; in short, he had so many things
to occupy him that when he began to
plow his field, the season of sowing was
past; thus he had nothing to reap.
When you have anything to do, do it
a'once; for. if you are-'master of the
present, you are more so of the future,
and he who always puts off his business
till to-morrow, runs a great risk of never
being able to finish anything.
A street in Paris is to be renamed in
honor of George Sand.
A Strange Story of the Great Plague
of Memphis.
[lndianapolis jgeutiuel.l
A strange story came to the ears of a
Sentinel reporter yesterday, which had
been related toagroupof men at one of
our hotels. The gentleman who gave
the narrative was immediately hunted
up and asked to repeat it. On account
of the fact that it might possibly injure
his business, and that he might be em
barrassed by strangers calling on him
who would read the incident, we omit
hi# name as well as the place where he
is now stopping. He said that in 1877,
when the first yellow fever appeared in
Memphis, he was there on business. He
had been there for several weeks, and
then first experienced a drowsy sensa
tion. This was followed in a week or
ten days by the fever in all its fury,
which rendered him unconscious.
lie lay for sometime in this condition,
his life being in a precarious state.
After a time he seemed to be overcome
by the disease, and gradually grew
weaker, until at last all pulsation had
stopped and the breathing was no longer
apparent. At that time it was the cus
tom to hurry the corpse to the grave
yard without anv ceremony. He was
placed in a rude box and hurried away
to the cemetery, followed by a single
friend. Ou the way to the grave, how
ever, this friend felt a conviction that he
was not dead and ordered the little
procession to stop. The box was taken
back to the place of starting, ur.d his
body again placed on a cot. After a
few hours of patient watching, a slight
movement of the face and upper por
tions of the body was observe*!.
An examination was made of the
pulse, which was found to be faintly
beating, while respiration was apparent.
In a few hours more the gentleman was
aroused, and in less than thirty-six
hours ho was sitting up. Ife recovered
rapidly and in the course of a few dftys
was able to get up and move around.
Meanwhile the associated press dis
patches had contained an account of his
death from the fever, and his family in
New York City, end one son, workingon
the Bee Line Road, had mourned for
him as gone from the face of the earth.
After his recovery he went to Texas,
and from there he crossed over into New
Mexico. He was gone on this trip
about two mouths, during which time
he wrote to his relatives, announcing
his restoration to health. He soon
afterward came North, and eventually
landed in this city, where he met his
son, who was as as much rejoiced at the
meeting as if his father had been raised
from the dead. It was learned that his
letters had been miscarried, and he
wrote at once to New York, again an
nouncing his recovery. The gentleman
who told this strange story is a man of
fiowerful frame. His weight used to
>e 215 pounds, but it will now exceed
197, which leaves him yet a very hearty
robust man. He is about fifty years of
age, and is very in elligent. He said be
was satisfied that numbers of persons
were not dead who wfra buried in the
yellow fever districts of thebuuth, but
had continued until interment in a
comatose state Aud the moral of this
may be: Be sure you are right, then eo
ahead, especially in the matter of
human burials.
A Story of Horace Greeley.
[CIiMN. T. Curryden iu New York Tribune. |
I hap; ened to witness one interview
which was sufficiently amusing. A
widow, or at leant a woman in black,
wanted to go somewhere, or set up a
school, or start a mission in some far
away region of Africa, or do something
for sewing girls—nevermind what! Mr.
G reeley, who was up to his eyes in work,
repeatedly told her to go away, and kept
on writing. Hut going away was the
last thing the petticoated philanthro
pist proposed to do. She kept on talk
ing, and Mr Greeley kept on writing as
well as he could; until at last in she|r
desperation, ho rushed to the speaking
tube which lead to the counting-room,
and bawled querulously through it,
“S , for God’s sake, send me up five
dollars!” The money came up; and
having thrust it into her hand, and reso
lutely discouraged the long speech of
thanks which she instantly began to
make, Mr. Greeley half bowed aud half
put her out of the little room and went
back to his work with a complacent
smile illuminating his excellent face.
He had purchased his time, and he had
paid a pretty good price for it.
Pink and white cameos, set in square
gold mounting, are used for ornaments
for bonnets aud are quite pretty enough
to do duty as brooches.

i Something Young Doctors Should Know.
(New Tnrtt’irrraM.l
An exchange which devotes special
attention to sanitary affairs suggests
that the several hundred young phy- j
sicians juslgraduated should supplement '
their studies by a course in hygiene.
The advice is eminently good, but many
a naan will open his eyes in astonish
ment when he realizes that physicians
need any such counsel, it seems as
strange as to advise business men to
studv arithmetic or preachers to peruse
the Bible. The plain truth is, however,
that while the medical schools teach
young men how to alleviate pain and
heal the sick, the greater art of prevent
i ing disease is in its infancy. How many
i physicians are com;ctent to discover
whether the atmosphere of a residence
I is pure or poisonous by reason of imper
fect drainage? How many can detect .
impurities in drinking water —one of
the most prolific causes of death in
country homes? Have deathdealing hot
air furnaces been banished from any
considerable number, of homes by
medical advice? Have many families
been instructed by their respective
I physicians upon the necessity and
methods of home ventilation r Is the
family food supply and the manner of
preparing it a frequent subject of pro- ■
fessional advice? All thise are matters ■
| of ths gravest imp >rtance as affecting |
human life, yet nine families in ten are |
I continually violating sautiary rul s re j
I narding one or the other without a word ;
■of remonstrance from their medical
advisers, and there is goed ground for
belief that physicians’ own families suf- j
fer as much as any others from neglect
of these and kiudied higienic require
j inents. Until the days ot this ignorance
I are gone medical attentions will not
i rse above the level of mere pottering,
fx't the new generation of physicians
; regard these things if they wculd secure
and retain a pood class of patients. To
attend a family of children through
dl|>htheri», without losing sny, isquite a
success, but, a greater one would be to
di-e >ver and aboli-h the cause when the
malady first’ manifests itself, and the
same is true of the many other diseases
i that are due to local conditions.
