PATENTS! MINUET. NOTICE TO INVENTORS. Tbere was never a time In the history of our coantry when the demand for inventions Bnd improvements in the arts and sciences generally was so great as now. The conveniences of mpjkitid in the faotory and workshop, the household and oo the farm, fli wli as in official life, require oontinnai Hccf-ss'ons to the appnrtenauce and impliraents of each in order to save labor, timeaod expense. The political chance in the administra tion of government does not affeot the progress of the American inventor, who being on the alert, and ready to per ceive the existing deficiencies, does not permit the iiffnirs of government to de ter bim from Quickly oouoeiving the remedy to overoome existing discrepan cies. Too great cire cannot be exer 0!sed in oLoosing a competent and skill ful attorney to prepare and prosecute an application for patent. Valuable in terests have been lout and destroyed in innumerable instances bv the employ ment of incompetent counsel, and es pecially is this advioe Applicable to those who adopt the "No patent, no pay" system. Inventors who entrust their business to this class of attorneys do so at imminent risk, as the breadth and strenifth of the patent is never con sidered in view of a quick endeavor to get an allowance and obtain the fee. THE FItEHS CLAIMS COMPANY, John Wedderburn, General Manager 618 U' street, N. W.,Washington, D. 0., representing a large number of impor tant daily and weekly papers, and gen eral periodicals of the eoiintry, was in stituted to oroteot its natrons from the unsafe methods heretofore employed in this line of business. The said Oon pany is prepared to take charge of all patent business entrusted to it for rea sonable fees, and prepare and nroseonte applications generally, including me. cbaninal inventions, design patents, trade-marks, labels, eopvriilits. interfer ences, infringements, validly rennrtn, and gives especial at'enion to rejected cases. It is also prepared to ent.ir into competition with any firm iu securing foreign patents. Write for inatriietiona and advice. Philip VV. Avihrtt. 1118 V Htreer, P. 0. Dox 885.

Heing a trustworthy little fellow some surprise was felt when he did not re turn after a reasonable absence. After waiting several hours with no sijrn of the messenger, a Hearehinpr party, of which I was a member, was made up to try to discover his whereabouts. After BCDurinp; the country for some time we came to the river bank and a short dis tance away saw a dead alligator lying on the shore with its grvat jaws ex tended to their utmost. On examining it to discover the cause of so strange an apHaranco we found to our horror that it had devoured the missing boy, and had attempted to swallow his head whole. This, however, it wns unable to do, and hud In-cn suffocated in the attempt. The lioy'a head was still cov ered by his turban, which, when re moved, disclosed the answer to his mis tress' letter, which he was faithfully bringing back. It was supposed that while attempting to swim the river he had Wen seized by the alligator, as these huge reptiles are very clever in concealing themselves till their victim Is well within reach, and then pounc ing on their prey."

The mining of coal is attended with many dangers, but none more to be dreaded than the dust explosions that are liable to occur at any instant and against which, in many instances, not even the most ordinory precautions ore taken. The air becomes thick with dust, which by some means comes in contact with flame, and the fire, spread ing with inconceivable rapidity, causes the most terrific explosions. It is claimed that all danger in this direc tion may be removed by a carefully arranged system of spraying water through all the passageways. The wet particles at once fall to the ground and may Isa washed away by fulling water or trodden down by the feet of the miners, lteoent investiga tion seems to prove that gas alone pro duces comparatively few of the more dreadful accidents, but that gas and coal dust mingled make an explosive compound that is greatly to be dreaded. i On Hoard of a Donkpf.
