A consumptive sanitarium near Berlin is to bo a largo cylindrical buildirg in which patients will be exposed to the alleged therapeutic influence of exhalations* from cows. A Uerlin musician, Dr. Eiseu- nrnnn, has applied electro-magnets to the piano so us to sustain, increase and diminish sound. The timbre of the tone may bo changed also, as from a violoncello to a piccolo. It has been noticed that a jot of compressed gus inflicts upon lhe body nn injury of tho same nature as a burn. Dr. B. W. Richardson has accordingly suggested the use of compressed gus—carbonic acid as most convenient—as a cautery, with advantages in removing warts, etc. ,A system of building houses entirely of sheet iron lias been communicated to the Society of Architecture in Paris. The wulls, partitions, roofs imd wainscoting are composed of double metallic sheets, separated by an air mattress, which surrounded by different nonconductors of heat. Economic Progress in Electiuo- ity,—The progress made in the use of electricity during a period of only five years is strikingly showed by Mr. A. K. Foote, of Cincinnati, in these figures. Dynamos, increased efficiency, 25 per cent j decreased cost, 40 per cent. Incandescent lamps, increased efficiency, 100 pur cent; increased life; 100 por cent; decreased cost, 75 per cent. Wire, decreased cost, 20 per cent. Lino construction, decreased cost, 20 per cent. A RiJMAniaitLE ExinniTioN,— Among the interesting scientific exhibits at a recent conversazione of tiio London Koyal Society were the following : 1, The "electro gniphoscopc," nn adjunct of the magic lantern, consisting of a white lath rotated like a windmill by an electric motor, a picturo thrown on the lath being visible in its entirety, on tho principle of retention of vision, and seeming to stand out in mid-air, 2. Tho magnetization of iron by a ray of light. 3. A shallow vessel of water, with projecting pieces of zinc to represent Europe and America, on which a dozen or mote pipes blow air-jets representing all the trade and other regular winds, the arrangement giving motions in water imitating the Gulf Stream und other actual oceanic currents. 4. A Gramme ring made to rotate under the influence of the magnetism of the earth. 5. Experiments showing that in perfectly dry oxygen such substances us charcoal, sulphur and even phosphorus muy be heated to high temperatures without burning. 6. Also, somo useful applications of fibres of quartz, specimens of the rediscovered Egyptian blue, and a great photograpic map of the solar spectrum. Gold Made mom Silver.---Three nllotropic forms of silver—broadly distinguished from normul silver by color, properties and chemical reactions—have been obtained by Mr. II. Carey Lea, of Philadelphia. Tho first ia soluble, deep red in solution, lilac, bluo or green while moist, und brilliant bluish green metallic when dry. The second is insoluble, dark rocldish brown whilo moist, und whon dry somewhat resembles the first. Tho third is insoluble, dark bronze while wet, and whon dry exactly resembles gold in burnished lumps. Minute specks of this form have been occasionally noticed in silver solutions, and this has probably often led to the supposition that silver might be transmuted into gold. It may be formed ih many ways, but by only one process—in whieh silver tartrate is reduced by ferrous tartrate—lias Mr, Lea succeeded in making tho gold-silver at all permanent, specimens thus secured being unchanged after thirty months. Each of the threo forms gives lustrous metallic films when spread out in pusty condition, is easily crushed to n lino powder, and is restored to normal silver by acids. A paste of gold- silver on glass makes a beautiful gold-colored mirror. The Scavengers of Nature.— "Under tho microscope," says Mr. Henry J. Slack, P.R.M.S., "it is seen thut as animal and vegetable matter rots away, swarms of ferments come into existence. For example, in n drop of water, tho flesh of a dead water-flea was noticed in commotion while tho writer was engaged on this paper. Thousands .of U-shaped vibrions wore living upon it; all wero in brisk motion, straightening and bending their bodies with whip-like flioks. They were a company of scavengers, Bweetening the water by a chemical process necessary for thoir nutrition. Our rivers and ponds would become factories of deadly poisons, and nil the earth's soil would be contaminated, if inexpressible myriads of minute plants and animals did nob attack (lead organic matter, and cause itselements to enter into new and useful combination'*. If wo find thousands of such little ferments at work upon a fragment of matter no bigger than a full stop of this print, what must be the numbers in operation when tons upon tons arc dealt with in the contents of our sewers, in tho manures we put on our fields, and iu the vast multitudes of human and other bodies that perish on land or in sea."

For a time the work progressed very satisf-ictorily, but a heavy ruin storm camo up, however, and compelled all the workmen to seek shelter. The flames in the wreckage are burninc furiously this morning, having gained such headwuy that the heavy rain hud but little effect in extinguishing them. Contractor McKniglit says if hu can keep the tires burning nt their present voluino during to-day and to-night, tho big raft will bo entirely out of the way by tomorrow. Dynamiting was kept up through tho niL-Iit and this tnornnig. Some of tho explosions were so heavy the people in their houses on Prospect hill left them, fearing they would fall. , THE CRONIN MURDER.

DABY MURDER. San Fhancisco, Juno 14.—Tho body of a dead baby, about t wo months' old, waa found late this afternoon under a roso bush iu the garden in front of the unoccupied houie at 2008 Lemon worth stroet. Tho indicaliotiB aro thnt tho baby was murdered. There aro several outs and bruises about tho head and faco, and blood ia coagulated all around tho mouth and noso. The clothing was neat and wai all blood stained. The ghastly disco** ery was made by somo school children playing in the garden. They at once notified their parents and the news was sont by thom to the morgue. Coroner Taylor snid thnt while the indications were that the child hnd died from violence, he would not express au unqunlifiod opinion until he made an autopsy. Tho cuts and bruises about the head would seem to substantiate tho theory of murder. It is supposed thnt the body was thrown into tho Harden Bomotime last night, as no one wus noticed around to-dny. Thero wero a number of children pluying on tlm sidewalk in front of the house all day, and they would hnve seen anyone entering the garden. An autopsy will be made on the body, and if it is found thnt the babe was murdered, no effort will be spared to bring about tho arrest of the guilty parties. a sro deal.

I sent luBt night three companies ol tho third infantry from Fort Snelling to re'- press tho trouble. Captain Stouch reports this morning from Mora that the report there is thnt one man waB shot, but the circum- tnticos are not known. Tho original report was probably nn exaggeration of the actual facts, and the condition will bo ascertained by Capt. Stouch. (S-gned) Ru»or, Brigadier general commanding." the new port. Los Anoeles, June 14.—J, B. Alexander, the representative of the Spreok- Ies Bros. Commercial Co., nt San Dief*o, said in an interview to-dny that the first steamer of the Peninsular & Oriental Co., from Yokohama, was billed to arrive nt San Diego on tho loth of July. The citizona of San Diego were to be niforined by cable- gram when tho steamer would leave Chine, but ns yet nn information to that effect hns boen received. There is no sure thing nbout the enterprise being carried out. Thore is nothing Vet to lead one to invest money in San Diego on tho strength that the steamers will land Oriental freight at that place. Tho voyage is much shorter and the idi a ia a good one, but there are many thinga that prevent the es* tablibhmentr--jf e::eh large, enterprises, even after all the preparations for carrying out the project are made. Bnring Bros -fcCu., of London, aro largely interested iu the Peninsulartt Oriental and havo a large block of stuck in the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Co. They are working hard to carry out the scheme of receiving China freight nt San Diego for this Bonson.

As a formal treaty, pertaining to international queaiiotis, it will have to hu submitted to the senate, but a simple u-*reumt-nt the state department hns power tu make public its provisions at its discretion. THREATEN TO STRIKE. Chicago, June 16.—The Union Pacific engineers are threatening to strike as a rusult of tho quarrel with Major Baldwin. THE WALKEM HIGGINS CASE. Ottawa, June 14.—In the supreme court to-day the case of Higgins versus Walkem came up fur judgment. It was decided that if Walkem agrees within two months to take $500 damages, reduced to that amount, then both nppenls will bo dismissed with costs. If ho refuses, then tho appeal from lho judgmont allowed with costs, aud a new ttiul will bo directed and nn appeal from the rule refusing nun-suit dismissed with coats. Chief Justice Ritchie did not ngrec with thn other judges that the opinion of tho plaintiff was only necessary to the neceptuueo of the 3500, but held that the defendant should hnvo boen consulted ns well. Tho damages, ho thought unnecessarily severe. The supremo court should not arbitrarily assess damages. Justice Taschnreau, in referring to the case, spoke strongly ngniust the nrticlo. He snid the libel was false, grossly malicious and wholly unjustifiable. Tho writor knew it was false, yet up to the present day ho never possessed manhood enough to tender an apology.

This morning the works of the Canada Powder Co., Brockville, blew up with terrific force. Fortunately the men had not gone to wurk, and, consequently no lives were lost. A horse and aeveral sheep were blown to atoms and Bcveral piste glass windows in town were smashed. Four men appeared at Milford station last night with the apparent intention of tnking the Canadian Pacific express for Halifax. Tho police suddenly appeared and ordered the Strang- ors to throw up thoir hands. They refused and the police were ordered to tire upon them Thoy did eo and the firo was returned with revolvers.

Wo may expect now to see preparations mado for active prosecution of the street improvements outlined in the by-law to which tlie ratepayers gave their hearty assent the other day. The suggestion lias been made that, as water mains and service pipes would have to bo laid in all the streets to be improved or opened, it would be a good schemo to make such arrangements as that the mains, ie- should be laid simultaneously with the street work, and thus save a second broaking up of the street surface. Whether it will prove practicable or convenient to carry out, wo shall not presume to say. We would, however, commend the suggestion to tho consideration of the city authorities, who should inquire into the economy of tho scheme and, if practicable, adopt it, In referring in the first instance to our correspondent "Taurus'" suggestion re earth closets, wo said, among other things: "As a temporary expedient, until our water and sewerage works aro completed, it would be' well, we believo, to carry out, to a certain extent, our correspondent's suggestion," Now that the water works question has been most satisfactorily settled, it is in order to consider, by itself, the propriety of adopting somo comparatively cheap, easily worked, temporary method of disposing, or rendering innocuous, of a portion at least of the city's sewage. Earth closets, we believe, if universally adopted, and placed under the control of the city authorities, would meet these requirements, and as it is likely to be two years at the earliest before shall have a completed system of sewerage for the eity, it will be well for the council to consider the advisability of providing for the sanitary welfare of the city in the interim. In so far, therefore, as our correspondent's suggestions referred to a system of earth closets by itself, without any respect to the water supply, we endorse tbem, to the extent of recommending tlie civic authorities to take steps, if possible, towards adopting a cheap, easily administered system of earth closets, for the time being. A number of citizens have already adopted the system, at their own costs, and it is for the council to consider if they should not provide reasonable facilities so that every one might, without serious cost, be enabled to adopt earth closets, and then take steps to close all cesspools and prohibit their use in the future. As it must be about a year boforo the water works can be completed, and probably two years before wo can look for sewerage proper, the necessity of adopting some temporary system to protect tho public health will be generally conceded. The city council, with its well known and commendable industry and zeal for the advancement of the public business, held a special meeting last night, and got through with considerable necessary work, a report of which will bo found in another column. It will bo seen that the first step hus been taken to com- . roence operations on the water works by Alderman Ourtis' notice of tbe introduction of a bylaw for the election of water commissioners. Alderman Cunningham's notice, thut at tho next meeting ho would ask for $200 towards the co3t of a B. 0. exhibit ut the Toronto exhibition, to tako place this fall, we believe, should receive tho favorable consideration of the council. Last year, as everyone known, Westminster made a disgraceful showing at this exhibition, ai.d it will ptiy to take a greater interest in the niatter this year and send a good exhibit, and also see that wo get credit for it. With respect to Aldorman Scoullar's motion, seconded by Alderman, Jaques, in thu matter of an additional teacher for tho high school in this city, wo would earnestly second the recommendation of the resolution. Tho school board, at their annuul meeting on Monday last, on motion of Bev. Mr. Jamieson, strongly urged the government to grant an assistant teacher for the high school, and tho counoil are doing the correct thing in supporting the demand. It is nol necessary to recount hero the good nnd sufficient reasons which are given for this eminently reasonable request, both by the school board and the city council. The necessity for an assistant school teaoher for tho high school here has existed for some time, and has beon pointed out before by tho school board and also by this journal. In tho interests of the school, we trust that the government may now see their way clear to comply with the request that has been made and grant the additional teacher required. The recent death of Laura Bridg- mun, observes an exchange, calls to mind a still moro remarkable, though less noted, case of the malevolence of fortune. Nineteen years ago there died in England a man whose parents had given him for a Christian name tho letter S, snd whose misfortunes wore so unparalleled that a short biography of hiin entitled "The Life of S," attracted wide attention in Great Britian and on this side of the Atlantic, S, who was the child of vory poor parents, was born deaf and dumb. Being poor, no effort was made to discover if his deafness was curable, and he grew up without any instruction adapted to his misfortune. S is described as having a vigorous body, a large and noble head and handsome features full of intelligence and force; and so great was his mental quickness and manual dexterity that, while still a lad, ho made a good living for himself and his widowed mother by making wicker baskets, which brought high prices owing to their artistic and original design and perfect workmanship. One day, when grown to manhood, while ho was engaged in his favorite amusement of watching the machinery in somo mills, lie leaned too far to examine a belt and his arms were caught and amputated by a circular saw. After tins misfortune the character of S seemed to undergo I a change. He had always been ' cheerful and affectionate, as well as industrious; but now thnt he was reduced to idleness and dependence upon inadequate charity, ho became as morose as he was miserable. One day as ho wandered forth in his usual gloomy mood, he undertook to cross a railroad track as the engino was approaching. Unluckily, his foot caught on the rail and he fell, and, having no arms to lift himself quickly, tho train passed over his legs, which were so horribly crushed that it became necessary to amputate them. While lying at the hospital to endure this operation a fever produced inflammation of tho eyes which destroyed his sight, and the medicines salivated him so that his teeth fell out. S wns now reduced to a helpless trunk, without arms or legs, without sight, hearing, speech, or tho means of mastication. His countenance meanwhile seemed to show not merely physical suffering bnt furious passions; it was apparently distorted with rage as well us anguish, In this condition bo attracted general attention in tho neighborhood, and efforts were mado to communicate with him through tho sense of touch. When his countenance was calm and gentle his skin was smoothed with velvety materials, but when ho fell into one of his rages ho was lightly pricked or pinched, At last the tido of his misfortunes began to turn, The inflammation of his eyes subsided and he recovered his sight, charity supplied him with artificial teeth, and one day he astonished his nurses by breaking out into a furious oath. His illness had, in somo way, so operated upon his ears that he had acquired hearing and his first words were the oaths he heard from the suffering wretches in his ward, Moro than all this, even romance was not denied to him. Among his numerous visitors was a young lady, tho daughter of tho rector of the parish. She read to him, instructed him, brought him pictures to amuse him. In the latter lie showed an eager interest, and, having seen her draw, begged for a pencil that he might imitate her. From that time, with a crayon in his mouth, he made his living by drawing portraits so life-like as to indicate, under the circumstances artistic genius of perhaps the highest order, And the rector's daughter, pitying and admiring him unto love, offered, as his wife, to be to him a life-long nurse. But S, though she was to him as dew unto the desert, magnanimously refused the sacrifice, and died of apoplexy at the ago. of 40, honored by all who knew him. From such a life as that described above, those who imagine themselves hopelessly handicapped by ordinary disadvantages havo something to learn.

Wo hnvo worked up the natural history between hero and tho const pretty well, having collected over 1,000 specimens of plants besides 300 skins of birds nnd othor mammals." The great scientist will remain yot for somo limn in Kamloops, and all tho summer in this province. llie Scott Co-id. The Scott road improvements hnvo been coin mon cod- under tho super* vision of Councillor Armstiong, It np* pears I hat no corduroying is to bo dune, which, if correct, will bo a grout and serious mistake, aa there are places whero corduroy ta absolutely necessary. It is to bo hoped the work on this road will bo thoroughly done, as tho money will bo almost entirely wasted unless the improvements are of a substantial nature. Glittering nnld, Capt. Rogers, oftho sir. Dunsmuir, states that on his last trip from Nnnaimo he brought over four pounds of rock quartz to Vancouver, for assay by Dr. W. Bi'cdomeyer. The specimens, which was sent by Robert Evans, of Nanaimo, and came from tbe "Nut Cracker" mine, Texada island, assayed tho large amount of §3,195.00 of gold per ton. Samples of tlio rock are described na very heavy and literally covered with streaks of gold. The Vory Intent. A hum phafcu o|' the Behring sea quuaiioii has been intruduced by Captain Solomon Jacobs, tbo hardy mariner who reported thut hu suffered from the Canadian fishery regulations u couple of years ago. Tbu captain is now soul fishing on tbo Pacilic,,and naturally desires the freedom of Behring Sea in winch to prosecute his culling. HoullcgcBthnttheroare30,000.000 souls in tho Nortii Pacific, each eating ton pounds of fish daily; or, for the ontiro seal population, 100,500,* 000,000 pounds per annum. In tho interests of the fish the seals should bu slaughtered. So the captain argues Behring Sea ought to bo thrown open to nil. It is to bo feared, however, that Solomon's wisdom will operate favorably In tho mare clavsum theory rather tlian otherwise, for if tho seals wero not to consume nil these fish, the oceun would soon becomo su thickly populated that navigation would bo impeded.—-Mail, Unit-' (lie Wm-lrt. Dr. 0. E. C. Brown showed us a cherry brunch to-duy, 17 inches in length, on which were over 250 cherries. Tho cherries are of tho Governor Gibson variety and much larger in siae than the English Oxllearta, The branch looked more like a. massive cluster of grapes than anything ehe, so thickly was the fruit attached In it. The cluster wns photographed by Mr. S. J. Thompson. Tlio world cannot beat this yield, forthe simple reason that tho branch was so thickly covered that there was no room left for moro fruit. Miecltll t'rl/iN, Mr. JI. Steves, of Lulu Island, has donated four valuable special prizes to bu added to the provincial exhibition catulogue. Following nre the conditions and tho prizes: For the four best colts tiivd by "Suffolk Prince," 1485, vol. 2, S. S.

The base ball match yesterday on the cricket grounds, botween tho Vancouver and Westminster junior nines, attracted all the youth, if not the beauty, of the city. The gamo resulted in a walk ovor for the Westminster youths, who defeated thoir Vancouver friends by 27 to 17, nnd that with a couplo of their bost players absent. Tho Westminster hoys outfield- ed, outbaitcd and outran their opponents, and generally covered themselves with dust nnd glory, Mr, Sam Woods noted tbo thankless office of umpire to tbe satisfaction of bntli teams.

Tlio catch uf spring salmon up tn tbo time of Ibe sleauier'B departure frum Skeena wua light, and iu consequence tbe canneries wero not very busy. A survey party, which haa been operating arouud Fort Rupert, camo down. Everything was quiet nnd orderly at tho various ports, nnd no news of n startling nature is reported. A passenger by tho steamer Sardonyx from Nans river states that D. F. Fee is engaged with a number of workmen in tho construction of n large cannery nnd wharves at Nana harbor. The completion of tho work will occupy nbout three months time. At A. J. McLellan's cannery 250 cases of spring salmon havo been packed. The ruu of spring salmon i3 light. On tho Naas river tho sockoyo run commenced laat Saturday. The canneries aro prepared for a largo run during the summer months.—If .mes. Moved by Aid, Scoullar, seconded by Aid. Jaques, thut this council is of the opinion that tho number of pupils in attendance at tho high school, and tho numbor uf subjcctB required to be taught, ure such that it is impossible for one timelier to do justice to the school. And inasmuch as the government requires this city to contribute one third of the coat of the maintenance of tho schools at present, whioh contribution is supposed to be equivalent to the coat of the high school, this council ia of the opinion that the government ought to provido for n second teacher for tho high school, who will entor on his duties aftor the sum mer vacation. Aid. Cunningham gave notice that at tlio next meeting he would ask for §200 towards the coat of a B. O, exhibit at ttie Toronto exhibition. Aid. Curtis gavo notice that he would introduce a by-law for tho eleotion of water commissioners. The council then adjourned. PERSONAL. Flue Assii'S. Wo learn from Dr, W, Bredemeyer that four pounds of rock sent by Robt. Evans of Nnnaimo, us coming from the "Nut Cracker" mine, Texada "Island, assay no less than 83,195.50 in gold per ton. A World reporter waa shown several samples of this rock, which ho found to bo very heavy and literally covered with streaks of gold. Another lot of samples from Siwash Creek, Yule, assays §30 in gold per ton. The samples forwarded uro good sized, weighing several pounds, so that the assay formed gives an excellent idea of tlio richness uf the vein. The samples contain, ut the camo lime, considerable platinum. Samples uf about twenty pounds weight sent from Scotch Creek, near KumU-ops, assay from $lii to S157 in gold per ton. So it Eeums thnt all the gold strikes mado of late hold out wondei fully and the general average of the richness uf Iho discoveries ia certainly kept up. Beautifully clear mica samples from Hope havo also been forwarded to Dr. Bredemeyer, The peculiarity of thia lodgo is that thn mica runs togother in the samo vein with white quartz, which contains §7-50 in gold per ton. Thoae assays wero all made within four hours after tho samples were received in tho doctor's office:—World. 3. Theo. Davie, of Victoria, is at the Colonial. >V, D.

Ruth cainpa in this district are very lively. A considerable number of mining men from the American Bide are investing in tbo mines. A syndicate from Spokano Falls paid 835,000 cash last week for Nulls' gold vein on Eagle Creek, and will erect a ton-stamp mill upon it aB soon ns possible. Stanley has tho machinery for hia doublo Huntington mill upon the Gulden King ground, and expects during the present month to bo crushing ore. A new striko of rich carbonates has been discovered near the No. 1 mine, whicli bids fair to exceed tbat mino now in value. It 13 reported that Jim Ward* nor, tho former owner of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan, in tho Coour d'Alene district, lias mado n high offer for it. The No. 1 mine shipped 400 sncltB of ore to tho Helena Smelting Works last week. Davenport has about 1,000 sacks ou tho Little Donald dump ready for shipment, The Hall Bros, aro said to have sixty Ions of very high grade silver und copper oro rendy to sack'.* Within a month probably 100 tons a weok will bu ficnt out frotn tbo two camps. About all the supplies for tho Lake are brought from Spokano Fulls, na packers nsk four conts a pound for packing thirty miles over Sprout's trail. Tlio towns of Nelson and Ainswurlb will be built quito rapidly asHouii us Buchanan's mill can furnish lumber.
