A relation between tho character of
dream and tho Intensity of sleep has
been shown by the experiments of N
Vaschlde. In profound sleep the
dreams refer to latent recollections of
lonpiwist events and matters seeming
ly having no connection with the pre"
ent; but the dreams of light slumber
are Inspired by recent occurrences nud
excitements, and are sometimes con
nected with what Is transpiring
around tho sleeper.
Coal workings around Cheadle. In
North Staffordshire, England, have
been traced Kick as far as the reign
of Richard III. Tho early mining Is
explained by local geological condi
tions, a the coal-seams Instead of
being hidden under drift as lu other
parts of England were brought to no
tice through dark streaks turned up
by the plow. A lato discovery Is nn
old level that must liavo been driven
at least three hundred years ago for
draining a coal tract.
After a series of experiments with
carrier-pigeons for conveying Intelli
gence, the German naval authorities
have decided to erect permanent pig
eon stations on the coasts of the North
and the ltaltlc seas. Every warship,
except torpedo-boats, leaving Kiel or
Wllbelmshavcn will hereafter carry a
consignment of pigeons, to be released
at varying distances from the land sta
tions. It Is estimated that the birds
have sufficient endurance to fly homo
over a dlstanco of about ISC miles
from land.
After so much has been said of the
excellence of applied science In Ger
many, It Is gratifying to learn from
Lieutenant Garden, who has returned
from an Inspection of the Iron, steel
and machinery establishments of Eb
rope. conducted In the Interests of the
St. Louis Exposition, that even In
German shops the high-grade work Is
done with American tools. For gen
eral work, he says, German tools have
taken the place of English tool,
which, ten years ago, were employed
In every shop of Importance; but for
work requiring greo't precision and
excellence, there Is to be found. In
nearly all the leading shops, a group
of American tools.
In tho new Are-alarm system of
Emtio Guarint of Brussels, automatic
signals are sent to the engine house
by wireless telegraphy. The rlso of
the mercury In a thermometer acts
upon a relay, and sets In motion a
wheel which makes and breaks tho
electric circuit by a series of contacts.
A series of impulses Is thus sent
through an Induction coll and the us
Hal transmitting apparatus. Tho re
ceiver at the central station or engine
house Includes air and earth conduc
tors, coherer, battery and Morse in
strument The same receiver can servo
a number of transmitters In different
places, and as the contacts on the
wheel can bo varied, the exact location
of tho fire can be Indicated.
NICKNAMES
Otren Often for Abenrd Ileaiom, and
Oeiiernllr They Stick,
"Wonderful how nicknames stick to
a person," said tho observant man.
There were two nice little women In
our village who came to call on us
one evening, and we offered them pop
corn which the children had Just
brought In front the kitchen. They re
fused, but not so emphatically as to
keep us from giving them two heap
lug plates of the com. We kept re
Silling the platoH nud they kept crunch
ing all the evening. There was some
thing so funny about It that I called
them 'tho popcorn ladle,' and tho
name baa stuck to them so that tho
whole village knows them by It.
"I once knew a man who talked
Incessantly In a hlgh-pltched voice and
ti bright girl dubbed him 'the chlrpej.'
The name was quickly passed around
among the young people, and now the
greater part of his friends know him
by that name, A very dignified young
woman of my acquaintance goes by
the name of 'WJionf to this day be
cause when sbo wan a very little girl
she used to call herself 'Mrs. Whont
when sbo played grown-up ladles, and
the family picked It up. Sho simply
can't shake the absurd name.
"Moro than ono red-haired raant la
known by the name of 'pink,' and phil
osophically accepts tbo title. I have
an acquaintance who holds a respon
sible position who is known by the
name of 'Dotty.' It seems that ono
y ft mischievous girl discovered that
ho had three vevy prominent dimple.
She promptly dubbed him 'Dotty
Dimple,' and now ho Is known to all
his associates as 'Dotty.' Another man
of my acquaintance Is always called
'Uluebenrd' because he has such n very
white and thin skin that f he does
not shavo dally his beard shows blue
through It. That name, too, came
through a woman's quick ivtt.
"An old lady friend of mine Is still
called 'Peachy' because when sho was
n young girl she had a complexion
like peaches atd cream. Her brother
promptly dubbed her 'peachy,' nud
'Peachy' she will remain to the end
of her days. In a certain household
a very femlnlno little woman It' still
called 'The Hoy,' because whin she
was a young girl sho went through a
very serious Illness which made It nee
osaary to cut her hair short. Her
younger sister said she was 'The Hoy
of the family, and the dainty lady Is
still called by that absurd name.
"An effeminate man wna once called
'Viola' by one of tho boys In the olllce,
and now we know him by nothing else.
Another one of the boys In the otllce
Is always called '01ety,' and although
he got angry nt Urst he has cheerfully
accepted the name now.
"Our tmokkccprr Is always putting
In his oar when It Is not at all neces
sary, and I think now he will bo
known until the end of time ns 'Gen
eral Ilutts.' A friend of mine who Is
always called 'Cheerful' doesn't know
whether ho Is called that because his
friends believe he has a sunny dis
position or because they consider him
n cheerful Idiot. Hut, at any rate, he
can't shako the name." Philadelphia

FIRST PLANTING OF SPONQEa

Not content with utilizing all tho
avalktblo resources In the United
States for tho purposo of supplying tho
needs of tho peoplo of this country,
Uncle Sant has Invaded the sea, says
tho Philadelphia Ledger. Tho gov
ernment has gone In for sponge
culture. The supply of sponges luw
never equaled the demand, and
wo have been Importing most of
thoso required for the domestic
trade. According to the enthusl
tic trade. According to tho enthusi
asts of tbo United States Fish Com
mission, tho American invasion of Eu
rope soon will odd sponges to lu list
of commodities.
Successful experiments havo been
conducted, and the actual work of
planting sponges off tho coast of Flori
da la being done under the supervision
of Captain James A. Smith, of the
Flshhawk. The sponge used In tho
propagation aro of tho shocpshcad va
riety, the most valuablo In tho world,
and which All every commercial re
quirement. Dr. II. F. Moore, assistant
Commissioner of Fish and Fisheries,
devised the mothod of planting.
Tho sponges are cut Into small
pieces from ono to two Inches In dl
nmcter. These small fragments of the
living sponge, which are dark In color,
the poros tilled with fishy matter, are
firmly fastened to pieces of coral, rock
or terra cotta brick and dropped oven
board. Thin aluminum wire Is used
for fastening them to tho objects. Tbo
use of the aluminum wire Is tbo solu
tion of the difficulty which confronted
tho experimenters. The pieces of
sponge have ono outer skin Intact, with
the outer edges raw. Tho latter, how
ever, quickly, heal. Tito aluminum
wire will, of course, plerco tho sponge
and form a small bore, or hole, through
them. Tho wire corrodes; but this Is
an advantage, for It gradually wears
away, leaving tho sponge free of any
foreign substance.
Most of the difficulties attending tho
culture have been met In attempting
to find something to bind the sponges
to the rocks which would last long
enough for the growth to attach Itself
naturally to tho new bed. Tho alumi
num wire does this. Wood, string, cop
per and Iron wire and various other1
substances wero attacked by tbo salt
