Only via the Western and Atlantic
railroad can you go to Elizabeth, “the
marble city of Georgia.” where there
is the most wonderful marble cutting
machinery in the world. Tourists
will miss it if they do not stop at Ma
rietta and go up to Elizabeth, only
two miles distant, immediately at the
foot of the famous Kennesaw Moun
tain.

Scientific.
The British experiments to test ths
relative merits of oil, gas and electricity
for lighthouse illumination have re«
suited in demonstrating the superiority
of electricity over all other lights, even,
as has been generally doubted, in densa
fogs.
Herr Fletmann, of Iserlohn, has
shown that pure nickel and its alloys
with copper, cobalt and iron can have
other metals added without losing the
property of being welded, and, there
fore, can still be used for making plate.
The metals which can be added, in this
way are zinc, tin, lead, cadmium, iron
and manganese up to as much as ten
per cent.
A plan for rendering paper as tough
as wood or leather has been recently in
troduced on the Continent; it consists
in mixing chloride of zinc with the pulp
in the course of manufacture. It has
been found that the greater the degree
of concentration of the zinc solution,
the greater will be the toughness of the
paper. It can be used for making
boxes and for roofing.
Prof. Helden recommends superphos
phate gypsum as a new material for
absorbing ammonia in stables. It is a
residue from the manufacture of phos
phoric acid, and contains four to five
per cent, soluble and one to two per
cent, insoluble phosphoric acid. It re
tains ammonia much better than kyan
ite, a double sulphate of potassium and
magnesium, which is sometimes em
ployed for the same purposes in stables.
It is sometimes said that the tern?
horse power is incorrect, because it does
not express the actual power of an aver
age, or even an exceptional horse.
This really makes no difference. The
animal should be entirely eliminated
from the mind, and the term taken at
its exact meaning, viz., the raising of
83,000 pounds one foot high in one min
ute of time. A horse would fall far
short of doing this for ten hours a day;
a steam engine will do it for twenty
four hours.
Th® assertion that all bituminous
coals contain iron pyrites, says Dr. W.
H. Wahl, secretary of the Franklin In
stitute, is correct, but it has been amply
demonstrated that some of the most
pronounced self-inflaming coals are
those which contain so little sulphur
that its presence could be safely ignored
even in a chemical analysis, and further,
that while the presence of pyrites may
and doubtless dees contribute to the
tendency of bituminous coals to spon
taneous ignition, those varieties which
contain the largest percentage of this
impurity are not those which are most
liable to spontaneous ignition, and that
this phenomenon is due principally, if
not exclusively, to the oxidation of the
organic substance of the coal.
The Franklin Institute recently made
a competitive test of dyamo-electric ma
chines, but the contest finally narrowed
down to one between the Fdison and
the Weston machines, in which the
latter showed a small percentage of
superiority. These two machines are
the ones principally in use in this
country, and except under the test of
five hours of heavy loads did not vary
much. Under the long test, however,
the Edison machine did not so nearly
meet requirements as did its competitor.
Several experts already declare that the
tests are not infallible, and this is prob
ably true, but to the Franklin Institute
is due much credit for an impartial test
which has proven both machines capable
of anything required of them in ordin
ary electric lighting.
Dr. Lanedell, the English missionary,
in a single year distributed no less than
56,000 Bibles among the exiles in
Siberia.
A trade in gophers is springing np in
New York. They aft bought by the
Chinese, who consider them a great
delicacy. -
People blew their noses au naturd in
England until the time of Edward IV.».
when pocket handkerchiefs were in
vented.
It is said that birthmarks may be re- .
moved by the use of a sunglass. Tt
must be employed judiciously, so SS
not to blister the skin.
The Caucasian petroleum, which ex
cels all others in illuminating power, is
said to be greatly inferior as a lubricant
to the American oils.
A Denver newspaper describes the
finding in Middle Park, at the depth
of 30 feet, the agatized timbers of a ship
of unknown length, “evidently moved
by sails.”
Mate, a Paraguayan tea, is a very
popular drink in South America, whish t
has never been introduced into the
United States. .It is said to be very
stimulating.
Some Japanese military officers have
invented hemp boats, each of which is
capable of carrying eight men, and can
be folded up for transportation so as to
occupy very little space.
The ground under clumps of china
berry trees in the vicinity of Tampa,
Florida, is covered with intoxicated
birds almost every day, they having
become tipsy through eating too many
berries.
It is estimated that the United States
produces enough lumber each year to
load 1,438,581 railroad cars, each train
averaging 7,000 feet. This would make
a train 8,500 miles long, or about one
third around the globe.
There appears to be an agreement
among medical writers that water is
fattening or at least favors a fullness
and roundness of the body. It should
be drunk at its natural temperature and
in considerable quantity.
A Brazilian physician, Dr. Ramos,
states that refrigeration of the lobe of
the ear will stop hiccough, whatever its
cause may be. Very slight refrigera,-
tion, he asserts, will answer, the ap
plication of cold water or even saliva
being sufficient.
Mustard plants used to be the terror
and disgust of the California wheat
grower. Now they are a source of
profit. By an ingenious mechanical
harvesting both crops are gathered,
separate, and the mustard is worth
more than the wheat on the same land.
Prince Bismavck wears constantly the
insignia of the Papal Order of Christ,
of which, like the Emperor Napoleon,
he is an honorary member. The origi
nal jewel is very costly, worth, it is
said, $50.000. But it is stated that the
one the Prince wears in public is pinch
beck.
It is suggested that th® Patagonians’
may have lost as much as two inches'
in stature since the adoption of constant
horseback riding, a little over two
centuries ago. They were formerly re
puted giants, and their bodies are still
huge, while their lege are dispropor
tionately short Ad slender.
Nature offers very little encourage
ment in California. A wide river in
Colusa County was recently bridged by
a one-hundred - and-seventy - five-thou-
Band-dollar span, which was no sooner
completed than the stream split in the
centre, and new flows at either end of
the structure, whieh extends over an
island in the middle es the water.
