Wlll Be Held Its April Many Cities Have
Indorsed the Scheme Members of Coe
greea Are la Favor of the Idea The
Plan Proposed Washington the Place.
An interesting meeting was held re
cently in Washington of the committee
appointed lately to co-operate with iim-
ilar committees in other cities in fur
therance of the plan for a permanent
treaty of arbitration between Great Brit
ain and the United States.
Tins plan, inaugurated by members
of the New York chamber of commerce,
bas met with much favor. Committees
have been organized in Chicago and
New York, and it is proposed to take
like action in Boston and Philadelphia
and elsewhere as soon as possible.
Eventually it is hoped the system of ar
bitration proposed may be extended to
all the civilized nations, as well as
Great Britain.
There Was an interesting general dis
cussion of the mode of procedure and the
scope of the plan of arbitration, in
which men of the wide experience in
diplomatic affairs of Mr. J. W. Foster
and Mr. John A. Kassou were able to
make many valuable suggestions.
It is proposed to have a conference in
Washington in April, at which delegates
bom each of the states and territories,
independent of party or creed, will be
present. Dr. Chamberlin of New York
bas been in consultation with members
of congress, with a view of ascertaining
the most available men for delegates in
each section. He spoke of having re
ceived very hearty encouragement from
members of congress whom he had met.
The arrangements will be in charge of
executive committees of five from each
local committee, and at the conference
the whole course of action will be set
tled upon.
The meeting was most satisfactory in
showing that the co-operative movement
for general arbitration will receive a
very hearty and influential backing in
the city of Washington.
In the course of the meeting Dr.
Chamberlin gave an intelligent expos!
tion of the plan and progress of the
movement. He said in this connection
The spontaneous, independent move
ments in Chicago, Philadelphia, Balti
more, New York and other places in
the interests of a permanent provision
for some wise methods of arbitration
between the United States and Great
Britain have now become one euthusi
astio movement in favor of a national
conference. The purpose of the confer
ence is both patriotic and philanthropic.
It is clearly understood that there are
questions, such as those of national sot
ereiautv and the integrity ol the na
tional domain, which no state will con
sent to arbitrate, but for the great class
of disagreements which are debatable,
and which the nsual methods of diplo
macy fail to adjust, there well may be
a resort to an arbitrating tribunal in
stead of the waste and bitterness of war.
It would appear, moreover, that
noble step in the advance of civilization
would be taken, should there be be
tween the two great nations which are
akin in language, jurisprudence, legal
methods and essential love of right a
treaty of arbitration, designating the
class of issues to be referred and deter
mining certain methods of procedure in
constituting and convening the tnbu
nal, as well as certain essentia rules gov
erning the presentation of evidence.
There would thus be a presumption
and practical facility favorable to arbi
tration such as do not now exist and
have not heretofore existed. The whole
effect would certainly be on the side of
peace with honor and justice with good
will.
It is not too much to say that such
treaty or convention between this coun
try and Great Britain would tend to
ward the adoption of international ar
bitration throughout the civilized world

stature to bury a very heavy cotliu with
ease. It is meant to do away with the
grewsotne association of scenes of
burial as far as possible.
The apparatus consists of a wooden
frame about six Inches square, which
fits exactly on the head of the grave.
Inside this framework is an ingenious
piece of mechanism with an arm mi
nient of cogs and pulleys which are
worked by hydraulic power. The uin-
chlue is operated by means of a liy
driullc cylinder, filled with chemically
pure glycerine, a non-freezing com
pound, and requires no refilling for a
number of years. All the active parts
are within the frame, and are made
either of steel or of bronze. This iu
sures lightness and durability.
At a burial the framework is placed
by the edge of the grave. The casket
la placed In the waterproof hempen
straps, which run transversely across
the framework. These straps will near
a weight of 2,000 pounds, so that no
accident from breakage can possibly
occur. At a given signal the operator
places his foot on a treadle, as shown in
the Illustration, and the coffin is low
ered Into the grave, without jar or
stoppage.
The speed can be regulated at will,
and while its descent can be made in
twenty-five seconds, it may be regu
lated so as to take a minute or more.
When the coffin has settled at the bot
tom, a pull at the cords attached to the
trap hooks releases them, and the
straps are worked back on their rollers
by means of a lever. During all this
time the frame remains closed. No
machinery is seen in operation. The
frame Is removed after the grave hits
been closed.

The latest "cure" suggested for the
relief of headache is a liair cut. A cer
tain physician in Louden has met with
great success lately in his treatment of
persistent cases of "nervous" headaches,
and he has finally disclosed the secret.
In each case, be says, after the patient
bad laid bare a long tale of woe of
sleepless nights and miserable days he
prescribed, briefly, a simple hair cut. It
is not necessary that the hair should be
oropped off short, after the fashion of
convicts.
The curative property of the treatment
is based on the fact that the tube which
is contained in each single hair is sever
ed in the process, and the brain
"bleeds," as the barbers say, thereby
opening a safety valve for the congested
cranium. A commentator in tne ijonaou
society press, in . referring to this cure,
says:

Contracts were drawn up at Chicago
recently by means of which it is prom
ised that packers and shippers of perish

Dr. A. T. Perkins, now a resident ol
Chicago, has patented a process of keep

sterilized air. His patents extend to the
antipedes. The contract was between
him and J. M. Smart of Melbourne,
manager of the Australian Meat Trans
portation corporation, limited, for the
nse of the process in the seven colonies
of Australia.
A corporation is also about to be
formed, with headquarters in Chicago,
to control the process over the railroad

Perhaps the result of the Venezuela
bouudary commission's work will be
the solving of one of the most remark
able geological enigmas iu the world
and the exploration of what is regarded
as a nuiaue natural wonderland. This
remarkable region is a number of ele
Vrtted and isolated areas of laud, situ
ated ou what the British call British
Guiana's southwestern boundary, which
is in the disputed territory. It is on the
British side of the Schomburgk line,
A British Guiana newspaper describes
this region, as far as it is known, and
expresses the hope that the final settle
ment of the boundary controversy will
leave it well within British bounds.
Should there be another result, bow-
ever, the newspaper says, tne region
should be made an international park,
something on the plan of the Yellow
stone park reservation.
The region is called by the Indians
"Roraima," but the several isolated
areas are known by distinctive names.
Each consists uf what might be called
an isolated mountain, but is really a
tablelund, comprising an area of 100 or
more square miles, elevated several
thousand feet above the surrounding
country. The rocky sides of the moun
tains are as perpendicular as the Hud
son river Palisades and entirely bare of
vegetation and have defied all attempts
to scale them. The level summits are
coveted with trees and other vegetation,
and down the rocky sides fall a large
number of cascades of considerable size,
indicating the certain existence of riv
ers and streams on the mysterious sum
mits, and probably of lakes that feed
the rivers. The summits have been ob
served with telescopes, and are known
to be as full of plaut life as the tropic
al plains below, but beyond this nothing
is known.
Because so little is known of the con
dition of these tablelands occasion is
given for all manner of speculation as
to what exists there. That the vegeta
tion is quite different from that ou the
plains below the telescope shows, and
that it should be so is quite natural, as
the tablelauds are 2,000 or more feet
higher than the plains. While the cli
mate of the plains is tropical, that of
the tablelands must be temperate, not
ouly because of their elevation, but also
because of the free play the winds bave
about them.
Of the geology of the region this ex
planation is given : This part of South
America rose slowly from the sea,
throngb successive and remote ages. The
Roraima mountaius were formed pre
cisely as was the rest of the laud, and
are not the result of volcanic action.
Hence they must have been above the
ocean long before the surrounding
plains appeared. They stood 2,000 feet
above the sea level when the neighbor
ing mountain tups were but islands in
the ocean. In the course of a period,
difficult to appreciate, the adjacent val
leys and plaius appeared above the wa
ter and became covered with vegetation
and animal life. But the isolated pla
teaus of Roraima had a tremendous start
of the plains below. Here comes the al
leged ground for the speculation that
perhaps ou these mysterious summits
there exist flora and fauna unlike any
found elsewhere, forms of life that long
since disappeared from other parts of
the world, but remained the same on
these summits because unaffeoted by the
influences of communication with the
outer world. All sorts of wild guesses
have been hazarded regarding the exist'
ence of strange reptiles ilud animals
among the streams and forests of Ro
raima.
The cascades falling from the sum
mits are amoug the highest in the
world. One is 2,000 feet high, and is
broad enotuth to be visible 80 miles
away. It falls sheer, without a break.
The mountains from which these cas
cades fall form the dividing watersheds
of the Amazon, the Orinoco and the
Essequibo, the three great rivers of
South America, and the waters of the
cascades flow some to one and some to
another of these rivers. It is argued
that to supply these waterfalls there
must be a considerable body of water
on the mountain plateaus, and it is nat
ural to conclude that where there are
large bodies of water there are fish and
reptiles. The resulting conclusion that,
because these fish and reptiles must
have been isolated on the mountain
tops for ages they are likely to be dif
ferent from any known speoies, is re
garded as quite natural. The mountain
plateaus form practically little countries
by themselves like islands, but more
isolated because the ocean of air that
surrounds them does not afford the fa
cilities for communication with other
islands that the waters of the ocean do.
One of these plateaus, known as Ku
kenham, which is better situated for ob
servation than any of the others, is esti
mated to bave an area of 200 square
miles or more. The smallest, which
bears the name oommon to the group,
Roraima, is estimated to contain 80 to
140 square miles.
The story of this mysterious region is
not new, at least in British Guiana. It
is many years since any scientific men
were in the region, but chance travelers
and gold prospectors happen there at
odd times, and when they return to
Demerara they add their little store of
information and mystification to the
rest. Schomburgk pointed out the great
importance of the region to Great Brit
ain, as it is the dividing watershed, but
the writer in the British Guiana news
paper does not say whether the explor
ing botanist bad much to say about the
wonders and mysteries of the Roraima
region. New York Sun.

A curious phenomenon occurred at
Hartford the other night, resulting from
a high wind and a slight fall of moist
mow on an icy surface. The wind
oanght the snow and rolled it up iuto
thousands of snowballs. Hundreds of
balls were whirled up and sent rolling
along, gathering snow a each turn and
each leaving its marked trail behind.
The wide slope of land surrounding
Trinity college was one field of rolling
snowballs. Dr. Samuel Hart thus de
scribes the phenomenon :
"The rotary wind flaw catches the
enow and rolls it up like a muff in cy
lindrical form. Most that I saw were
about eight inches wide and eight inches
In diameter, hollowed at the two ends.
Tbey are iu effect isosceles triangles of
snow rolled up on the vertex. "
The same phenomenon occurred about
13 years ago. Some of the wind made
snowballs were as large as half barrels.

with men, cattle and horses. It is this :

Chicago was visited by a most singu
lar meteorological phenomenon a few
nights since. Block snow, yellow snow
and brown snow fell in blinding clouds
over the entire city, and reports from
suburban towns brought the news that
the varicolored storm was not an eiclu
sive Chicago production.
The chief of the weather bureau at
Washington says:
"The black snow that bos lately fallen
in Chicago and the northwest is similar
to the great fall of Juunary, 189S, the
uature of which was tburougbly invest!
gated by the weather bureuu at that
time. Notwithstanding the theoretical
suggestion that the black deposit ou lust
January might have come from beyond
the earth and might be uieteono or go-
luetic, or might even be the volcanic
dust from Alaska or Japan, careful in
vestigation showed that it was due to
none of these causes.
"On the contrary, niioroscopio exami
nation proved that the black depuuit
contained ubout 4 per cent uf the most
delicate organio structures (such aa dia
toms and spores) and about 00 per oent
of the finest possible inoraguio matter,
such as makes up the ordinary fine silt
and clay soils. All this fine material is
easily caught up by the dry winds when
ever they exceed 20 miles per hour and
is carried to great distances before it
settles ou the grouud. It is easily
brought dowu iu large quantities by
snow or ruin, but is ouly perceived by
the ordinary observer whore there is a
clean surface of snow for it to fall upon.
Large portions of country from Nebraska
southward to the gulf are covered by
this flue soil, whose depth sometimes is
100 feet. A gule of wind has been
known to carry away six iuohes of the
surface soil from a freshly cultivated
field and spread it over the laud 100
miles away. The blackness is due to the
fineness of the silt and not to any mag
netio iron." New York Sun.
Dark snow fell in many localities in
Indiana recently. It varied in color from
brown to jet black.
A remarkable atmospberio phenome
non occurred early the other morning
over the ocean near Cape May. The
frosty air there was filled for some 20
feet deep with ice crystals, the frozen
evaporation of the warmer water of the
tea. All the fleecy, flaky characteristics
of drifting snow were present. On this
bank Ihe shipping of the offing seemed
to. glide in and out of the bay like fig
ures ou a mimio stage.
,The sun had ascended some SO degrees
above the horizon before the novel sight
disappeared by the melting of this at
tenuuted snow bank. Seamen note such
occurrences in the gulf stream, where
the warm water of the ocean is evapo
rated and frozen near its surface on
frosty mornings when the air is still.
Philadelphia Ledger.
A remarkable phenomenon was wit
nessed at Chicago the other night for
which the United States signal sorvice
can offer no solution or reason. It was
a dust storm which prevailed until far
in the night in the midst of a snow
storm. Everything touched was be
smeared with a dark brown substance,
which was clearly dirt of some sort, but
just what no one was able to say.
This dust storm began about 20 min
utes to 7 o'clock and was at first rather
violent, the wind being strong, but after
an hour or so subsided somewhat. Re
ports from southern Wincousin, eastern
Iowa and western Indiana show that the
storm also prevailed thero.
In some of the places where the storm
prevailed the browu dust oovered the
enow to the depth of an eighth of an
inch. New York Herald.
The last few days, whenever snow bas
fallen in Salt Lake City, a white sedi
ment has been left wherever the snow
touched. There has been much specula.
tion as to the actual cause ; the looal
scientists have been and are now divided
upon that point. There are those who
insist that the sediment was taken np
from the bosom of Great Salt Lake.
There are others who believe the deposit
is sulphate of soda, which is thrown up
on the shores of Great Salt Lake during
the winter by the action of the cold
weather on the briny waters. Be that as
as it may, the bouses facing north, the
street car windows and every piece of
glass exposed has become incrustud. Pe
destrians who happened to be out in the
storm did not notice anything out of the
way until their clothing dried, when it
was discerned that the apparel was lib'
erally sprinkled with what appeared to
be salt. The deposit is of a saline nature,
That was discovered by the application
of the tongue.
It is a phenomenon that frequently oo
curs in Salt Lake City, and especially
during the winter season, but a good
deal of work was necessary to remove
the stains left on the windows. There
has not been a snowstorm within the
last ten days when the deposit of the
sediment has not occurred. The savants

"W.W WATSON, 225 Dearborn si"
Busy men and women are apt to
think there is always time to get well
the fact that only one person in a hun
dred dies of old age shows how reck
lessly men and women postpone at-
teuding to their health and allow it to
go to pieces while tbey devote them
selves heart and soul to affairs that are
rifling in comparison. Wives aud
mothers have no greater duty than to
see that those dear to them do not b
oome so absorbed in tbe work of provid
ing (or the household as to lose their
health and shorten their days.
No more thougl-tfut step could be
taken during the spiing days that are
qow here thxn to urge such tired and
often irritable home providers to take
Paine's oelerv compound. Thoie are
thousands of homes where over win k has

long time convlnued that sound nutri
tion was the keystone of firm health,
and that where there were aignt of
poorly nourished nerve tltsuos, and of
thin, pale colored blood, some mesus
must be devised to supply these defloi
enoies briskly and rapidly. Professor
Phelps prepared Paine's oelery com
pound on this basis. It has proved an
Iuvigorator. strengthener and a great
spring purifier, suoh at the world has
never enjoyed before our day.

Ornaments In India.
In India, for the mass of the people,
the purchase of ornaments is almost the
one form of indulgence to which a lnuu
who has made a little money treats him
self. Ordinarily the man who has saved
a few rupees does not change the nature
of his food or the style of his clothing,
nor does he invest in articles of furni
ture. What he does if he is of a cautious
and saving nature is to put his rupees
in a hiding place, but if lie is inclined
for show he indulges his fancy by put
ting gold or silver ornaments ou the per
son i of his wife and children.
These ornaments are the very last
things to be parted with on a reverse of
fortune, and eveu in the lowest social
depths they are not put on the market
nntil the last piece of coined money hus
vanished and no household utensils of
brass or copper are left with which to
obtain a coin.
