CMcngo Tribune.
Just about the time when the Galap
agos Islands were discovered by the
Spanish, not quite 400 years ago, a
tortoise was born there. The same tor
toise died a week or two ago in the
London zoological gardens.
If odors were solid particles, they
would tend to form nuclei of cloudy
condensation in supersaturated air. Dr.
John Altken has tested musk and twenty-three
other odorous substances with
out finding such nuclei, and he con
cludes that odors are gaseous and that
smell has gas as Its fundamental ban's.
The highest k.Ue ascent was lately
made at Llndenberg, Prussia, 21,100
feet being reached, with six attached
kites and sixteen thousand yards of
wire. The temperature fell from 41
degrees at the Burface to 13 degrees
below zero; the wind eighteen miles
at surface was fifty-six miles an hour
at highest point , '
One's hair, .If never cut, would fur
nish a record of his health during life.
This Is the Interesting discovery of
Matsura, a Japanese physiologist, who
shows that the hair like the finger
nails grows smaller In disease, and
that the duration of the malady may be
estimated from the length of the thin
ner section of the hairs. The variations
are most striking In the coarse-haired
races of people.
Dr. Lindsay Johnson, the celebrated
opthalmoldglst, says that the dog hns
two ancestors, one round-eyed, the oth
er oval-eyed. The first Is the hyena,
the second the bear, through the rac
coon. All dogs descend from these ani
mals. The "corpus nlger," or black
body of pigment In the eye of the
horse, which has puzzled veterinarians,
naturalists and zoologists so much,
provides, through the opthnlmoscope,
a new means of tracing tho ancestry
and relationship of the horse. It Is
the same eye curtain that Is found In
tropical animals the onager, the camel
and the antelope for protection from
sunlight
A recent British scientific expedition
discovered that In the Indian Ocean
floating life Is exceedingly abundant
at all depths down to about 7,200 feet
In seas 15,000 feet deep. By floating
life Is meant animals which form the
food of whales and deep ocean fish,
and which, up to the present, have been
believed to live on or very close to the
surface. A variety of enormous squids
were fished out, as well as Jel
lyfish, and prawns fully six Inches
long. Some' of these latter were
blind, while others bad huge eyes, but
nearly all of them had phosphorescent
organs, which would naturally be due
to the fact that they live at a depth
where almost total darkness prevails.
The blind varieties had enormous feel
ers of antennae, some of them extend
ing to twice the length of their bodies.
I'rof. Dewar has found that the
power of charcoal to absorb gases Is
vastly Increased at very low tempera
tures, so that .It can be employed for
exhausting Incandescent lamp bulbs
and Crookes tubes, and also for separ
ating mixed gases. Experiment has
1 shown that the freezing-point of water
and at normal atmospheric pressure 1
gram of charcoal absorbs 4 cubic centi
meters of hydrogen, and 18 cubic centi
meters of oxygen, but that at -182
degrees O., the temperature of boiling
air, 1 fram of charcoal absorbs 13.1
cubic centimeters of hydrogen and 200
cubic ceotlmrt-rs of oxygen. When
several gases are mixed, the charcoal
absorbs some of thein much more free
ly than others, so that by multiplying
the operation gases can be separated
from mixtures In sufficient quantity
for Industrial uses. "
AN ANCIENT MYSTERY.
Scholar Still Trying to Locate the
Garden of Eden.
The location of the earthly paradise
or garden of Eden Is still a matter of
dispute among Orientalists and scrip
tural scholars of highest reputation,
says the Brooklyn Citizen. Some have
endeavored to locate It by the fruits
and mineral productions named In the
biblical descriptions as they appear
In the secoud chapter of Genesis; oth
ers by the rivers mentioned In verses
11 to 14 of the above mentioned chap
ter. The weight of Investigation and
tradition Inclines to an agreement
that the Tigris and the Euphrates of
modern geography are the third and
fourth rivers mentioned In the bibli
cal description of the garden. Those
who agree so far differ widely as to
what rivers should now be regarded
as the ancient Pison and Glhon. The
Buddhistic scholars, although they re
ject our Bible In the greater part, In
cline to the opinion that the Pison Is
the sacred Ganges, and that the Gl
hon Is none other than the Nile. As
to the last, It Is altogether probable
that they are correct 'on that point,
because the biblical account plainly
says that Glhon "compasseth the
wuoie land or Ethiopia."
Some Investigations confirm that
Eden was a spot of comparatively
small area located on the tablelands of
what Is now Armenia, from which
rise the Tigris and the Euphrates. A
few scholars of distinction argue that
the Adamlc paradise was located In
Africa In the vicinity of the Mountains
of the Moon. Still another school of
Orientalists locate the celebrated gar
den In the vicinity of tbe ancient city
of Babylon.
You will notice, however, that none
of those theorists has been able to get
the four rivers mentioned in the bibli
cal account properly located. Neither
have they found a place where one
great river "separates Into four
heads." This being the case, it Is
hardly necessary to add that the ex
act location of Eden is a mystery that
will probably never be solved.

Henry Vignaud, secretary of the
American Embassy at Paris, enjoys
telling of an American who was being
shown the tomb of Napoleon. As the
loquacious guide referred to the va
rious points of Interest In connection
with the tomb, the American evinced
the greatest interest in uli thul way
said.
"This Immense sarcophagus," de
claimed the guide, "weighs forty tons.
Inside of that, sir, Is a steel, receptacle
weighing twelve tons, and Inside . of
that Is a leaden casket hermetically
sealed, weighing over two tons. Inside
of that rests a mahogany coffin con
taining the remains of the great man."
For a moment the American was
silent, as If in deep meditation. Then
he said :
"It seems to me that you've got hlra
all right If he ever gets out, cable
me at my expense." Success Magazine.
Lincoln' First Election.
Lincoln's election to the leglslaturi
of Illinois In August, 1834, marks the
end of the pioneer period of his life.
He was done now with the wild care
lessness of the woods, with the rough
Jollity of Clary's Grove, with odd Jobba
for his dally bread with all the de
tails of frontier poverty. He contin
ued for years to be a very poor man,
harassed by debts be was constantly
laboring to pay, and sometimes abso
lutely without money; but from this
time on he met and worked with men
of wider knowledge and better trained
minds than those he bad known In
Gentryvllle and New Salem; while,
the simple social life of Vandalla,
where he went to attend the session)
of the legislature, was more elegant
than anything he had yet seen. St
Nicholas.
A Brisk Trade In Sermon.
The wife of a Philadelphia I clergy
man recently sold a box of waste pa
per to a ragman, says Success Maga
zine. In the box were a lot of manu
script sermons of her husband's. A
month or so thereafter, the ragman
again came around, and asked If the
lady had any more sermons to sell. '
"I have some waste paper," said she,
"but why should you particularly want
sermons?"
"Well, mum, you see I did so well
with them that I got here a month ago.
I got sick up in Altoona, and a preach
er there boarded me and my horse for
a couple of weeks for that box of ser
mons, because I hadn't any money.
Since then he's got a great reputation
In those parts as a preacher. I'll give
ten cents a pound for all you have."
