An Kugllnh alienist, Mr. Styles, hns been nt nomo pains to Invcntlgnto this subject, with wholly discouraging re sults. Tho story of his discoveries may best bo expressed In figures.

St. Louis Star. l.lclitnlnir Nricr Striken (lio Hen. Professor John Trowbrldgo of Har vard has lately mado a series of exper iments with electric spnrks six feet In length which, ho thinks, show that lightning never strikes tho surfneo of tho ocean. Ills experiments were un dertaken with a view to volatilising water for tho purposo of obtaining a strong spectrum of water vapor. Itut ho found that his sparks, of high elec tromotive forco and as far ns possible resembling lightning, ulwn;ji refused to strike tho surfneo of water and pnsscd Instead to tho edges of tho ves sel containing It. Ho also found It ex trcmoly dlillcult to pass powerful spnrks from ono stream of water to another. An Interesting conclusion which ho draws Is (hat "It does not seem probablo that lightning dis charges paRs through regions lu tho nlr of henvy rainfall." NOTIOH VOll PUBLICATION.

This puzzlo has been partially cleared up by tho explora tions of tho Russian Captain Koslofl during 1000 nnd 1001. lio found that tho thrco rivers flow on the surface of tho great plateau, 1 2,000 feet above sea level, mid nru separated from 0110 an other by parallel ranges of mountains rising about 3,000 feet nbovo tho pla teau and running In n northwest and southeast direction.
