A STREAM BENEATH LOSS ISLAND, UN
CKASINO IN ITS FLOW.
Forest and Sream for this week edi
torially says:
It has long been a mooted question
as to what becomes of the surplus
water of Lonkonkoma, in Suffolk
county. Long Island, and the
stream which flows past and trough
the property of the South Side Club
is supposdd to connect by a Subter
ranean passage with the lake, and to
form its outlet.
The recent discoveries in Garden
City would indicate a remarkable con
dition of the sub-strate of the
island, and if the report is
correct the presence of so
many springs culminating in
trout stream can be accounted for.
Mr. Hinsdale, who Is In charge of
Mr. Stewart’s improvements at Gar
den City, has written a letter to Pro
fessor J. D. Dana,of Massachusetts
describing the results which have
followed ttie excavation of the
gravel in the vicininity. At a
point within three-quarters of a mile
of Hempstead, lie says they are sim
ply removing gravet from a river,
which he describes as a sheet of wa
ter flowing southerly in a continuous
stream, with a descent of eight feet a
mite. Its motion, of course, is retar
ded by the gravel, but as unceasing
in its flow as the Hudson or Missis
siopi.
In boring for atesian wells it is not
uncommon for the worker to come
upon sueh subterranean streams, and
when found between two strata* of
clay or rook, the water, finding no
other outlet, is forced through the
pipe and forms a flowing well. But
when the stream is found flowing
through gravel the loose soil permits
the water to percolate through it
without ‘ heading,” and hence it can
not be forced to the surface by means
of its own pressure. The peculiarity
of the Long Island stream appears to
be fn its proximity to the surface, al
though we have in mind a whole dis
trict of country where artesian wells
are found at a depth of one hundred
fact.
A Shining Object. - The signal re
cently erected on the summit of
Mount Shasta. California, by the
Coast Survey, is a hollow cylinder of
galvanized iron, twelve feet high and
two and a half in diameter, surround
ed by a coneof nickle-nlated copper.
The reflection from this cone is so
strong that it is beleived the signal
can be used for observation at a dis
tance of one hundred miles.
Men Who are Always Going To.—
Many men live a life of postpone
ment. They are about to attain suc
cess next year or month. Notwith
standing this, they grow old and die,
for time does not wait for dreams,
but demands action.—Exchange.
Fatality.— Samuel Dennis and two
friends went to shoot ducks in a
pond near Waymart, Wayne county,
Pennsylvania, recently. Dennis
dropied his ramrod from the boat
into the pond. In making a sudden
movement to recover it the boat cap
sized and he was drowned. The oth
er men clung to the boat and were
rescued. Just one year ago, to the
very day and hour, John Dennis, a
brother of Samuel, was drowned in
precisely the same manner.
A Prcssian Landlord.— The pro
prietor of the Grand Hotel de Rome,
Berlin, one of the largest and linest
in Germany, was formerly a servant
in the establishment. While he was
alter k fitter, or head waiter, one of the
guests, a rich widow, fell in love with
him, and of course they were mar
ried. He bought out his master
forthwith, went to fight the French,
was brave, decorated by the Emi>eror
and came with the other Johnnies
marching home covered with medals
and importance. Now he is a very
heavy Prussian swell.
New York will hang two murderers
on the 10th of December. These are
two who were accidently convicted,
and the murderers who escaped ar
rest feel very sad for them.
The Davenport brothers have re
tired from the business of being ex
posed.

last Monday, stating the position of
this Government towards Spain on
the subject of Cuba, us expressed in
former instructions to Minister Cush

made in official and other quarters

this there was no foundation, us the
matter is merely one of diplomacy.

murder of P. R. Baldwin, by poison
ing, the defendant was found guilty
of murder in the tlrst degree, Sat
urday night lust, about 12 o’clock. It
sterns that she confessed the crime
while in prison in Montgomery last
winter, which was proven by parties
who were in jail with her, to whom
she confessed it. There were able
arguments on both sides of the case,
but the evidence for the State was so
strong that thojury were ns a whole
almost convinced that she was guilty
in the early part of tho trial.
The Judge passed the sentence on
her immediately after the jury re
turned tho verdict, which was im
prisonment in the penitentiary for
life.
It has been quite cold, and turn

ARRESTS AND PROSECUTIONS.
St. Louis, Nov. 8. —Col. E. R. Chap
man, head of the Stamp Bureau at
Washington, who, with Gen. Luoien
Hawiev, made the investigation
which resulted in tho seizure of the
distilleries and rectifying establish
ment houses here during the past
summer, has arrived in this city to
assist in preparing the whiskey ca
ses whicharcto come up during the
next term of the United States Court.
It is thought that many of the ac
cused have put in a idea of guilty,
but it is still necessary to put in a
certain amount of evidence that the
judge can intelligently sentence the
delinquents.
Col. Chapman states that any
amount of testimony is in the hands
of the Government, more than it will
bo necessary to produce, especially
in tho cases in which the accused
pleaded guilty. It is also stated that
overtures have been made in Wash
ington in being a surrender of all
they possess on condition that the
Government will not press the crimi
nal part of the proceedings. These
overtures, it is asserted, have been
received with no diposition to con
sider them.

discovered this morning by a lady

A PPLEOTNS’
American Cyclopedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by tho ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from new type, and illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings
aud Maps,
The work originally published under the title
of The New American Cyclopjcdia was com
pleted in 1803, since which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained in all parts of the
United States, aud the signal developments which
have taken place iu every branch of science, lit
erature and art, have induced the editors and
publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough
revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The
American CYOLOtjcdia.
Within the last ten years the progress of dis
covery in every department of knowledge has
made a now work of reference an imperative
want.
The movement of political affairs has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their lruitlu
application to the industrial and usefiil arts and
the convenience aud refinement of social life.
Great wafs aud consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country,
which was at its height when the last volume ol
the old work appeared, has happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial and industrial
activity has been commenced.
Largo accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last do
cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whoso names are iu every one’s mouth, aud
of whose lives every one is curious to kuow the
particulars. Great battles have been fought aud
important sieges maintained, of which the de
tails are as yet preserved only In the newspapers
or iu the transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been tho aim of the editors to
bring dowu the information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of
the most reemit discoveries in science, of every
fresh production in literature, and of the newest
inventions iu the practical arts, as well as to give
a succinct and original record of the progress of
political aud historical events.
The work has been begun alter long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of the original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page has been priuted on
new type, forming iu fact anew Cyclopwdia, with
the same plan and compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements in its composition
as have been suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in the present editiou Lave been added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanations In
the text. They embrace all branches of science
aud of natural history, and depict the most
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture ami art, as well as the various pro
cesses of mechanics and manufactures.
Although intended for Instruction rather than
embelishment, no pains have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
' execution is enormous, aud it is believed they
! will find a welcome reception as an admirable
; feature of the Cyclopaedia, aud worthy of its
! high character.
j This work is sold to Subscribers ouly, payable
jon delivery of each volume. It will be completed
i in sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, aud with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

ted iu the heart of the City of New Y’ork, and es

mium ranging from S6O to SIOO,OOO.
