Timing the total eclipse of Jan. 28 a satellite of the moon was sought fof byrProfi Piokering, of Heavawl Umversity. None was seen, and the conclusion was reached that if one exists its diameter must bo lets than 2,000 metres. Onion juice is said to be a remarkably adhesive paste for attaching paper to zinc. The metal should be oleaned with a strong, hot solution of washing soda, and then rubbed dry. Cheap clock dials ore made by attaching paper to zinc by this means.

AGiiioULTuitE.-^-The Brit tn ii r.sitl at Hokadadi stu'tes that the iinos—who are a remarkable '.ibe of small, hairy people, originally living by hunting and fishing— havo been in great straits since the occupation of their fishing grbundi by the Japahe'SrI % ''1869. Since 1882 efforts have been made to i relieve their distress arid to teach them farming, and in 1886 about 803 acres were cultivated by thero. In their chief home in the island of Yesso, the Ainos are estimated to' number 14,000 individual!, with 3,000 hot'ses. They are supposed to" be gradually disappearing, A Ngw EtoiA.—The luxuriant vegetation of Krnkatoa wai totally destroyed by the eruption in 1883, not, a living germ being left. Three years later the island wai visited by Dr. It. Treub, who now reports having found six speeies pf micro- Eoopio algae, which coated the rock and seemed to have formed the soil (.„ which eleven species of ferns had taken root, A common, grass of Jave wai growing, arid there were quite a number of such species of flowering plants as first appear on toral islands. Seeds or fruit of several coral island trees were found on the shore. Kiakntoa ii ten miles from the iiland of Sibesie, containing the nearest terrestrial vegetation, twenty milr3 from Sumatra, and twenty-one from Java. Tub Stoiiv op the Rooks.—Geological history brings before us, says Archibald Ueikio, many facts well calculated' to impress our minus with the great antiquity of our planet, ami with tho marvellous chain of changes by which the present order of tilings has been brought about, Wo learn from it that mountains and valleys have not come suddenly into existence, such as we now see tlioni but have been formed gradual ly, by n long series of processes similar to those which are no,v doing the same work. We discovir tlmt every part of the lund under feet cm yield up its stoiy, if we only know how to question it. And, strangest of ull, wo Hnd that the races of plants and niiiiiials whioh now tenant land and sen are. not the tint or original races, but that thoy were preceded by others, these again by others still mora | remote, We see that there has been j upon tlie earth a history of living j things^ as woll as of dead matter, .

Lonvox, Sept. 29.-Sir Francis De- Winton, president of tho Emin Bey Relief Committee, tufa that further reports this week.from Khartoum havo convinced him that Captain Vanzele was .miitakeu in hii assertion that he was the white - puba '.but hail heen reported by pilgrims.' The pew's which reached the Emin Bay Relief Association, he asserts, has itrengtbeileil the opinion that the white pa.ha.is iiotie other thin Stanley. The Europeans on the Congo, who are the people best able to judge, alio still maintain that the white pasha is Stanley, In order to realize ,iu any degree the perilous nature of Stanley's position and the dangors against which Stanley and. Emin Bey have 'to contend, it is necessary to oHst a go'r iM glance over the recent history it Central Africa., Three great phenomena "Welly attract attention. There hav ;een an extensive Mahometan rsriva]) a totnp.iriiy relaxation of thcauthoiitatire attitude of European civilizati..-. ..nil a Stringe recrudetcenco of bar!" '■: l„rci. Th'p Mahometan niovemen: ■ has been long in progress. Nearly ten yours ago a religious revival waa propagated by a socioty which hud its- branches in every tr.'iu and every oasis from tho borders of Morocco to the valley of the Nile'. The beginning of the movement in Kordofan, whioh culminated in the rise of the Mahdi, was attributed to an impulse due to this general prudagandn. Tho conflict between this movement and the orderly forces of civilization which ended iu the establishment of the Mahdi at Khirtoum revealed in the natives of the Soudan an energy and ferocity whioh were absolutely new and about tbe same time the English government ceased to maintain its anti-slavery blockade of tho eatt coast. The whole interior of Africa from the Zambesi to Dongola from the Benin to Lake Nyasai it now in a itate of disturbance. The fearful nature of the ravages carried out by the representatives of this new plague, whether they are regarded aa Mahometan fanatics, or merely as slave raiders, ii illustrated from a variety of sources, but no aha) hii described the Mahometan movement better than Stanley himself,' who had a lively anticipation, moro than once expressed in the course of the year 1885, ol this fiery advance of the Mihometnns. It is in tins torrible wave of faniticism and brutality that Stanley is now submerged.. TO-DAY'S DESPATCHES.

We da set teiih to excite, any antagonism to Isdner'i Landing or any other el the ambitious ind deservedly pronerou farming eettlementi of the district, but merely to cell tt tention to the net that, in the or- dinary coune of things, the provin- cial agricultural exhibition next year ihould be held in thii city. We have noticed that on the alternate yean when the ihow takes place on Vancouver Iiland, Viotoria, aa a matter of ooune, ii where the exhibition is held—and not Oowichan, Sisnich, or tome other of the outlying lettlements. In the other prov- incei, and alio in the statei louth of the boundary line, it will be found that the provincial snd state fain »re invariably held in nme important central city or town, and net in tn outlying rural diitrict A re- Tentl of thii common and well-considered praotice, although, perhaps gratifying the .ambition of tome Srogrenire agricultural community, i obviously not in the interest of the exhibition itself, Common tense would dictate that an exposition luch as our annual provincial ihow— where not only agricultural products ire exhibited, but the manufactures tnd til the resources of the country tie illustrated—should be held at some centre of population, having direct and easy communication with til parts of the province and with the outside world—where, naturally, the largest tnd beat display would be made, tnd the greatest number of people would congregate to view the exhibit!. These two object! are n- tentiilly the immediate aim, tt tny rate, of any public exhibition. Wettminiter, of all places in the province, best combines tnd meets these ends. Grounds have been prepared, tnd buildings ereoted, too, ipecially tor exhibition purposes, and with the rapid advance being made by thii city in population and wealth, to lay nothing of the added railway tnd ferry ftcilitie. which it will posssss en another year elapiei, the annual provincial exhibition of 1889, to be held hen, ihould be, by t Urge majority, the meet luccessful and brilliant since the inception of the society. It is to be hoped thtt t •ineere tnd pttriotic deiin for the tsst interest! of the exhibition tnd of the province miy govern in the oouncili of the tiaooiitioq this year, tnd that t unanimous deoiiion may be retched to hold the next annual provincial exhibition in the belt place—when, in ftot, it naturally belong*. The great qltterni.1 tug-of-war, tor the edification of Uncle Sam tnd family, comes off on the 6th of November next, t little oyer a month hence, tnd ts the time dnwi near, it does not by any means become dearer who shall win in the Strug* gle. In fact, the reverie, nther, is the case. Both are recognited ■■ good men, either of whom would make t fairly good tnd satisfactory president, tnd perionilitiei, it il gratifying to note, an much mon conipicuoui by their abience than is common in American preaidential campaign!. The tariff question, without doubt, ii the main iuue. The fisheriei unpleasantness and the Anglo-phobia wntiment tn being used by both Dirties, to the credit of neither, to further their levenl ends. The Ohineie question—aa evidenced by the exolusion bill juit signed by the president, according to our despttohes to-day—is another shrine tt which itttesmanihip ii lacriUced to politic! for party ends, etch side hoping to gain tn advantage in the eyes of the electors. And last, but by no meant least—o fact which ought to make the ladies, everywhere, proud, aa instancing their growing importance and su- Jiretnaoy—Mn, Cleveland is a factor n the contest, perhaps the most for midtble opposed to Republican success. In illustration of thii fact, we etnnot do better than quote the following, from tho New York correspondence of in eutern Canadian Jo<"I"a: m ' Channoey Depew'i new firrfeut tpeech •s to Mn.

Mr.. tsimmti'i nn tut at dMlug with . v"^*^sI*jllsl u tvUft-Ml day That the fair young wife of the president will retain her place in the hearts of .11 u firmly ti cur ownroyil princess seems most probable. Although the i presidential chair. weald be oredlttbly filled ly either of the two upitant! to that high position, we believe that Hie inter. erti of the great republic tnd of thou countries having the most intimate commercial and friendly relation! with it will be beit subierv,d by there-election, for the next four yetn, of President Cleveland, more eipecially us then ii t itrong,. tnd not altogether groundless, suapicion, thtt, If Harriion wen returned, Blaine would be de facto preiident. Anyhow, we're voting for Cleveland, He's a good mm, and, u Ohtuncey Depew evidently thinks, Mrs. Cleveland is t "stunner." There is no doubt thtt tbe Hudson Bay nilwiy negotiations ore off for the present, and, although there is some difference of opinion on the question, it is generally conceded that the government have noted wisely in rejecting the proposals of Meun. Row and Onderdonk, whioh Were, substantially, to comtruct 60 additional milea of the road (40 miles wu built in the fall of 1886), in consideration of t guarantee by the Manitoba government of i^ per cent bonds to the extent of $1,000,- 000 for 25 yean, The deciiion of the government is simply that they will guarantee bonds to the extent of $2,600,000 for 25 years at 4 J per cent, to secure the completion of the road from Winnipeg to the Hudson's Bay, instead of $4,500,000 at the same rate and for the same time, as provided in the amended act of 1887. They also intimate very clearly that no guarantee will be made in lieu of any partial construction. As to the wisdom of this last determination there can be no two opinions; for, until completed to Hudson's Bay, the railway must be a dead weight on the province. The conclusion to guarantee bonds on only $2,500,000, instead of on 84,500,000, ns provi- ded in the act of 1887, is regarded by some as a repudiation by the government of its own promises, whioh amounts to breaking faith, it must be admitted that it is diliicult to overlook this phase of the question, although from the standpoint of economy, and the best interests of the province, a withdrawal of the larger guarantee may be, and we believe is, perfectly justifiable. Since the guarantee of $4,500,000 was made the circumstances and condition! calling it forth have undergone material modification. Then, the province wai groaning under the O. P. R. monoply, with a very remote prospect of relief, and the Manitoba™ looked not only to the construction of a road to Hudson's Bay, but also to a bnaking of that monopoly. Now, the monopoly blockade hu been raised by tbe entrance of the Northern Pacific Railway, for which the province has incurred an annul possible obligation of over $80,000. From thia new basis, then, of the requirements of the province, the government have thought proper to reduce their offer of guarantee to the extent of $2,000,000. Strictly ipeaking, thii may be regarded aa a repudiation or back-down, but there sn few who will not, under the oir- eumitinces, sympathise with the motives to the extent of palliating the action of the govern ment. Considered by itself, then can be no doubt of the importance of the project, or the ultimate certainty of its fulfilment; but for Manitoba, already sufficiently burdened, to undertake the entire reiponiibility of the construction of thii road—the Dominion authorities, too, having lately concluded to render the scheme no assistance—would bet very questionable policy, to say the least. A fair observer mutt give the Green wty government credit tor manifesting t uniformly honest regard for the best interests of the province, ind in this matter they have not acted inconiiitently with their record.

Commenting on this incident, the North China Herald says that the Emperor only reflected Chinese sentiment in attaching great importance ■ to the differ- once between the two, decapitation being regarded as a much more dishonorable death than strangulation. The Chinese feel tbe utmost repugnance to any mutilation of tho body, not on account of the pain or the fear of death, but because of the sentiment that it Is a man's duty to keep iu tact as far as ho can, the body which his parents havo bequeathed to him. It forms part of that system of filial piety which is the orthodox religion of China, and has had its share in producing the Chinese dislike of war and revolutions. Patiently aud Uncomplainingly ns most Chinese will go through a surgical operation, it is well known that they strongly object to amputation, nud it is often difficult to induce them to submit to it. They invariably nsk for tho severed limb, which they either keep in a box, to be buried with the original owner on bis: death, or they cat it. This latter method has the countenance of antiquity; what Is severed from the body by accident or necessity is returned to it. A work which has been called the Chinese prose' 'Iliad" records of a certain hero,' that when drawing out a stray.arrow which cute m1 his eye in battle, the eye came with the weapon; whereupon heswal- lowcd the former wltti great sang froid, observing that father'-' flesh and mother's blood should not he thrown away. Some commentators on the work say that us a temporary expedient this was quite allowable, and even commendable, but that the regular courso would be to wrap up the eye and keep it until death. Teeth nre treated in much tho same way. Miik teeth are regarded as a mere makeshift of nature; and therefore not possessed of the dignity of adult teeth. Tlio latter arc carefully kept when they canioout,or they rirogrbjtnd to powder .-tml .'.'..'riiUnvoil in \y»teri for they aro part oi'the parent's bequest, Another phase of this subject is the practi'ju, so f?c,que'ntiy commended by tho EmiR'ror.ofmi.hiiiL-lji-olhforasiek parent out of .flesh cut from the body of tho pluld. The ufiicicy of tho practice Is that it restores to the parent. a portion of1 his. own esseiice. Viceroys nro constantly begging for special rewards to be bestowed on children who havo mutilated themselves for this purpose. The mother of a late Governor'of Yum.au, who was then87 years old, was commended not long since in these terms: ' 'Sho obi aincd a reputation for the filial piety sbo displayed towards her Iiub- band'a parents, mutilating herself to mix her flesh with his medicine when her father-in-lavwasill." A few years ago the Viceroy of Szeehtien reported a cuso iu which a dutiful son, who waa too poor tn satisfy a sudden craving on the part of his sick mother for meat, cut n piece of flesh off his arm and mado soup for her. Ho felt, the report says.no pain from the mutilation, and tho wound healed nt once. THE AMERICAN WIFE. An English Mother's Wise Decision. Traveled English Dame (in London)- "My.dear, these reports'from the Young Ladles' College are very discouraging." Loyely Daughter—"I know they must be, mother. Tho dean said my schooling was money thrown away; ho added: that there was no learn in me, and that I never had an idea on any subject whatever." "I should judge io from then records; absolute failure everywhere. Ton did not succeed even in tho cooking department." "No, I spoiled everything I attempted and burnt my fingers and nearly set myself on fire. I'll never go near a kitchen so long as I live; I'll starve first," "You can't even sew; you can't mend your own stockings.'1 "I know it." ■ * ' "What is to become of your Are you good for anything at all?" "No, mother; nothing." "Well, I'll Just give up out* London house and we'll emigrate to the United States. You are not fit tor anything but to be an American wife."—OmohaWorld. 'Jf A WEDDING RINQ OF BAD OMEN. Tha Tragi.* Events That Yellowed Iti Use. A tragic story of a forgotten wedding ring Is told in the "Urea of the Llnd- ■eys," When he ihould htm been at ohurch, Colin Llndsey, the young Earl of Bal- carres, was quietly eating hie breakfast In nightgown and slippers. When reminded that Mauritia of Nassau was waiting for him at tho altar, he hurried to ohurch bnt forgot the ring. A friend present gave htm one which he, without looking at It. placed on the bride's finger. After the ceremony wis over the count- csa glanced at' her hand, and beheld a grinning death's head ou herring. She fainted away, and the omen made Midi nn impression on her that on her recovery she declared that she was destined to tile within a year, n presentiment that, prob- ably'brougut about its own fulfillment, for in a few mouths tho careless Coliu waa a widower.
