ACID FOR MAKING SUGAR.
A Curious Process Which ptas Met with
; Some Success In lYance. -
A very novel method-of making sugar
has been patented "in France by M.
Pellegrini, says the American Archi
tect. Sugar is, chemically, a compound
of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen, in
such proportions that if carbonic acid,
water and certain kinds of illumin
ating gas could be persuaded to unite,
in the proper qnantities, the composi
tion of sugar would "be exactly imi
tated.' Hitherto no one has been able
to make sugar by mixing water with
two kinds of gas, but M. Pellegrini
claims to have succeeded. The ap
paratus he uses consists of a large block
of pumice stone, cleansed by soaking,
first in sulphuric acid and then in wa
ter, which is set in an iron box plated
with nickel inside. The length of the
box is three times that of the pumice
stone block, which is tightly fitted into
the middle, and pipes are arranged to
convey the ingredients to the empty
ends of the box, as required. Two of
them enter from the sides, and serve
to bring carbonic acid and hydro-carbon
gas, while another pipe from above
branches so as to reach both empty
portions of the box and conveys steam.
All the pipes are fitted with valve and
pressure gauges. t.'-
Another pipe, at the bottom of the
box, serves as an outlet. At first this
pipe is closed, as is also the steam pipe
from above, and carbonic acid is forced
into one end of the box, while ethylene
gas is forced into the other, under equal
pressure and in equal volumes. A few
minutes later the steam valve above
is opened and the steam forced in
under the same pressure. As the gases
unite the pressure falls, so that the
supply of each must be kept constant.
At the end of half an hour the supply
of gas is shut off, the outlet pipe is
opened and one of the chambers is
found to be filling with syrup, con
taining twenty-five per cent, of sugar.
The syrup is drawn off for refining,'
and as soon as the apparatus is cool it is
ready for a fresh charge. The ethylene
gas can be obtained by. roasting rosin
or 'grease, but M. Pellegrini's patent
covers other hydro-Carbons, such as
petroleum products. ' The explanation
is that the three gases are condensed
in the pores of the pumice stone and
there unite; but M. Maumene, who has
made some experiments, declares this
to be doubtful, and in Cosmos expresses
doubt as to the success of the process.
THE GREEN CORN DANCE.
How It Is Conducted Amonr the Potta
wa.tom.la Indians In Kansas.
The Pottawatomie Indians are at
present having their annual "green
corn dance" on their reservation, about
twenty miler north, of town. The
green corn dance is a ' celebration to
the Indian deity on the arrival of the
green corn, as the name suggests, says
the Topeka Journal. The dance lasts
day and night for sometimes as long as
eight days, though of late years the
limit has been shortened as civiliza
tion approached. It will : probably
soon die out altogether..
Of course the braves they alone do
the dancing do not dance all this time
without rest. The dance simply keeps
up that long, different braves dancing
while others rest. The exercises are
conducted in a ring not unlike the cir
cus ring. The participants are dressed
in all the grotesque costumes of the
race, with feathers, beads and furs.
The braves are seated around the edge
of the ring with faces to the center.
The music, which consists of several
Indians beating on one skin drum in
the middle of the ring, you could not
distinguish, but there must be some
tune about the noise, for the players
always strike together without a
break. The dance which consists -of
contortions of the body that only an
Indian is capable of and hideous imita
tions of theories of wild animals lasts
continuously for about half an hour,
and then the music stops, while one of
the braves in the ring makes a speech',
always in the Indian toiyrue.
The squaws' part of the programme
lies in taking- care of the babies and
cooking a green-colored liquid from
the corn, which is brought into the
ring in tin buckets steaming hot, and
from which the dancers take refresh
ment. '
HER OBNOXIOUS ATTIRE.
It Was Too Much for the Nerves of This
Poor Woman. " "
Bad nerves are frequently very
troublesome. ' Experience proves that
it is always advisable to nip their dem
onstrations in the bud before they get
too audacious and assume control of
the whole system.
' At a garden concert the other even
ing, says the New York World, a very
fine-looking, elderly woman in a high
ly desirable seat seemed to be laboring
under a mysterious malady. She
twisted about, she wriggled, she rubbed
her hands together excitedly, she
leaned back and shut her eyes as if in
desperation. What could be the mat
ter with her? She did not seem warm,
for she did not fan, and she looked too
well to be on the verge of a stroke of
any kind. Suddenly the mystery was
solved. Before her sat a lovely summer
girl clad in a charming fluffy gown of
silk . gauze. The perturbed old lady
leaned and touched her on the shoul
der. Then she said:.
"Young lady, your gown is beauti
ful, but it is made with the stripes run
ning bias on your back, and they drive
me nearly frantic. Would you mind
changing- seats with me, so I can't see
them? If you don't I shall certainly
have to go home."
And the charming girl changed seats
with her. '
Napoleon's Poison Bag:.
A curious detail of Napoleon Bona
parte's costume was the religious care
with which he kept hung around his
neck the little leather envelope, shaped
like a heart, which contained the poison
that was to liberate him in case of
irretrievable reverses of fortune. This
poison was prepared after a recipe that
Cabanis had given to Corvisart, and
after the year 1808 the emperor never
undertook a campaign without having
his little packet of poison. .
CURIOSITIES OF PLANT LIFE, t
Trees That Distill Water, Furnish Light,
- Change Color, and Catch Fish.
On the Canary Island grows a foun
tain tree, a tree most needed in some
parts of the island, says the San Jose
(Cal.) Mercury It is said that the
leaves constantly distill enough water
to furnish drink; to every living crea
ture in Hiero, nature having provided
this ' remedy for the drought of the
island. Every morning, near this jsart
of the island, a cloud or mist arises
from the sea, which the - winds force
against the steep cliff on which the
tree grows, and it is from the mist that
the tree distills the water.
China, too, claims her remarkable
tree. This is known as the tallow tree,
so called from the fact of its producing
a' substance like tallow, and which
serves the same purpose, is of the same
consistency, color and smell' On the
island of Lewchew grows a tree about
the size of a common ch.erry tree, which
possesses the peculiarity of changing
the color of its blossoms. At one time
the flower assumes the tint of the lily,
and again shortly takes the color of the
rose. In Thibet there is a curious tree
known as the tree of the thousand im
ages; its leaves are covered with well
defined characters of the Thibetan
alphabet. It is of great .age and the
only one of its kind known there.
The caobab tree is considered one of
the most wonderful of the vegetable
kingdom.- It appears that nothing can
kill this tree; hence it reaches an
astonishing age as well as enormous
size. The natives make a strong cord
from the fibers of the bark; hence the
trees are continually barked, but
without damage, as they soon put forth
a new bark. It seems impervious to
fire and even the ax is resisted, as it
continues to grow in length while it is
lying on the ground.
In Mexico there is a plant known by
the name of Palo de Leche. It be
longs to the family of euphorbia. The
Indians throw .the leaves into the water
and the fish become stupefied and rise
to the surface and are then caught by
the natives. In this case the effect of
the narcoctic soon passes off. The
milk of this plant thrown upon the fire
gives out fumes that produce nausea
and headache. The milk taken inter
nally is a deadly poison; it will pro
duce death or insanity according to the
size of the doze. There .is a popular
belief among the lower class in Mexico
that the insanity of the ex-Empress
Carlotta was caused by this poison.
' AN ARTIFICIAL NIAGARA.
England's Scheme to Utilize the Current
of the Irish Channel.
England does not propose to be be
hind the United States in the utiliza
tion of natural waWrpower for electric
lighting and machinery. Since- she
has no Niagara, she proposes, it is said,
to make one- The force to be borrowed
is that of old ocean itself, says an
article in the Boston Traveller.
The North sea flows through the
Irish channel -with a swift southward
current. At " the Mull of Cantire,
only "fifteen miles from Scotland, the
average depth of the strait is not more
than three hundred feet. A dam built
at jthis point would incidentally per
mit of rajlroad connection between the
sister islands. But the main purpose
of its construction would be to bank
up, the waters and create an artificial
difference of levels.
The sea north of such a wall would
at once rise higher than the Irish sea,
which would be turned into an inlet or
bay. By tapping the dam an almost in
exhaustible power could be drawn
upon, since the greater width of the
wall would more than make up for the
steeper descent of the narrow Niagara
river. Secondary advantages, such as
increased navigability of the now
stormy Irish sea and improvement in
the ports of eastern Iceland are claimed
for the plan.
Sensitive Aboat His Age.
When a distinguished man like M.
Grevy refuses to tell his age, surely or
dinary women may be excused for so
purely feminine weakness. By this sub
terfuge the president misled his country
men into believing him to be six years
younger than he was, "according to an
anecdote, as follows: "M. Grevy was al
ways very reluctant to tell his age and
openly admitted that reluctance. At a
dinner party given by one of his
friends in 1872, the future president of
the republic said, with a smile: 'Peo
ple may try as much as they like, they
will never know my real age.' And,
in fact, when M. Herold, who was some
time a minister of the third republic,
endeavored to obtain definite particu
lars of M. Grevy'sage for a new edition
of 'Vapereau,' M. Grevy persistently re
fused to supply them. 'The archives
of Mountsous-Vaudrey were burnt in
1813,' he said, 'and you must do the
best you can.. You'll . get no informa
tion from'me.' As a consequence, all
M. Grevy's biographers gave the year
1813 as that of his birth, while in real
ity he was born in 1807." . 1 .
The Discovery of Glass.
There . is little or nothing known
with certainty in regard to the inven
tion or discovery of glass. ' Some of the
oldest specimens are Egyptian, and the
age of certain glass vessels made by
that people, which are now kept in the
British museum, is believed to be at
least 4', 194 years, dating back to the
year 2300 B. C. Transparent glass was
first used about 750 B. C, the credit of
this latter discovery being given to the
Phoenicians. The old story of its acci
dental discovery is familiar: Merchants
who were resting their cooking pots on
blocks of suhcarbonate of soda found
glass produced by the union, under
heat, of the alkali and the sands of the
desert.
A Russian Charm.
The Russian method for young girls
to find out when they will be married is
for a party of them to assemble and
take off their rings and drop them into
a basket of corn, stirring the grfam
meantime till all the rings are hidden
and then a hen is brought in and in
vited to partake of the corn and the
owner of the first ring uncovered will
be the first to enter matrimony.
