Formerly tlie stones were found quite near the surface, but those places "have long- since been exhausted, al though tlie liurmese still continue to turn over the old heaps in the firm con viction that precious stones grow. Now the stones are found at a depth of from Jo to 2i feet, in a reddish, gravelly layer of varying- thickness up to IS inches. Q'he pit sunk is usually some five fet in diameter and either square or cir cular. Soil is raised in bamlxw bask ets, attached to the end of a nstie electrician v. ould suggest that 1 naked arcs and incandescent filaments were objects to be frazed at without 1 limit. Put naked are lights are not usually placed so as to come within the ! line of sight, and when they do acci j dentally, whatever may result, the in j jury to the eye is quite perceptible. The j filament of a plow lamp, on the othe!- hand, is most likely to meet the eye, but jti fronted bulb is an extremely simple ; and common way of irettine over that I difficulty. Tlie whole trouble can be I easily remedied by the use of properly frosted nr colored iriass "lobes.

There grows upon the sands of the Atlantic coast, nt least as far north as the Virginia line, a little cactus with a pretty yellow ilowcr. It nourishes in the dry'est sen sons and where nought but bare sand is visible for many square yards. The secret of its sturdy growth'ainid hard conditions is found, perhaps, in t:.:e character of its roots. They arc long- and tough, like twine cords, and. radiating in several direc tions, they convey to the plant what ever moisture tlie ground contains for yards around. Oddly enough, too. this cactus, when torn up by the roots and conveyed north. seems to live on indefi nitely' under entirely new conditions, its roots cut short, planted in clay soil, and abundantly watered. llrltnlir-. 15ot!iHlavlo.

For 20 j earsor more the dee pes t s po t i n the ocean has lwen supposed to le to the northeast of Japan, says the New York Journal. There the bottom lies -,(J.i5 fathoms down, or more than five miles beneath the surface of the waves. In the lutest hydrographer's report of admiralty surveys, made toy the Hritish g-overnment, this ocean 'ecord, which i:if stood so long, is beaten, for there is official information of a deeper sounding- than has hitherto been made: The deepest spot in the ocean, so far as known at present, bus been found to lx in the neighborhood of the Friendly and .Kerniadee islands, in the Southern Pa cific. Here the maximum depth is i.tSu fnthom-. or close upon six miles. The observation, made by the officers on board the Hritish ship Penguin, is nil the more bears out the result of pn; searches, showing curiously enough as it does that the deojxjst parts of the .sea are not far from land. Deep-sea sounding has corne of late years an exact science in itself. One cu rious feature of it, and one which is lit tle known, is tha the 'leads" used have to bo constructed witli especial strength in order to withstand tlie enormous lircssure of the mass of water which lx-nrs down upon them when they lie upon the bottom. So great is this pres mire that tlie Hounding apparatus in ordinary use would be crushed. THEY NEVER HEARD OF HIM. Two Chicago Minim"- Men V.'ho Wondered Who (ieorRu It. Davis I.
