The sole has been consummated of
Lookout mountain, celebrated as the
’ icene of the battle among the clouds. A
company has been organized to build a
broad guage milroadby July 1, and erect
. a large hotel on the historic spot.
1 The value of the cotton plant, great, as
it is acknowledged by all to be, seems to
have the possibility of being increased,
Iince it has lately been discovered that.
the bark ofrthe root contains what prom-
he: to be an avnilnblc coloring matter.
An authoritygivcs the consumption, of
corn as follows: "180,000,000 bushels
no usedrfor human food, 034,000,000 for
workin" .nnimals, “20,000,000 for seed,
100,000,000 for the production of spirits
Ind glucose, 05,000,000 for export, and
900,000,000 for the food of tarot-produc-
i log animals.” ' ,
The coyote is the enemy of the jack
rabbit, and used to keep his numbers
down. ,NBut some years ago a bounty was
put on\ the coyote in t‘alil‘ornin, and he
has since decreased and the jack rabbit
increased, until now the latter «Loos great
damage to vineyards and orchards. It
is, therefore, proposed to take the bounty
of! of the coyote and put it on the jack
rabbit.
. The development of the bituminous
“ coal lands in Virginia. during the last
four years has bccn‘so rapid as to excite
the wonder of coal producers throughout
the country. Up to the beginning of the
time mentioned, the coal production of
Virginia was comparatively inconsider-
nble, but in two years/rough estimates
flaw the production all the way from
three million to five million dollars.
An accident that was reported recently
from Junction City, in the vicinity of
Fort. Keogh, Montana, in which a
white woman shot :It a dog running along
thei-ivcr bank, just as an Indian lifted
hibhcad above the bank, and killed the In-

Viviscction is not on issue in this coun-
try as in England. Uur people take it
,for granted that scientific men would not
torture an animal unnecessarily and un-
justifiably. But in England there is n
toeicty composed of influential persons
Whose work is to prevent the torturing of .
animals by scientific. investigators. Lead-
ing journals are antagonizing the estab-
lishment of an addition to the College of
surgeons lest it. be uwd for experiments
in vivisection.
The head of one of the great New York

others had grown poorer to the extent of
20,000 or $15,000. Thirty nmémd

Now and then is publidn-d 0 story of a
mouse, a dog. a horse, or some other ani-
mal with “a rcnnii‘kablc car for music.“
The latest comes from Yrckn, Cal.’ A
young man riding a gentle, though
.pirited horse, becoming musically in-
clined, tied the reins around his wrist
ind began playing on a mouth organ. It
is not stated how well or how ill was the
playing, or what was the tune. Anyhow,
the horse had an ear for music. Ill: be-.
home excited, began to dance and to
“buck,“ threw the young-man to the
ground and dragged lIim'lo death. This
may or may not prove a sullicicnt warn-
ing to prevent. the reckless playing of
mouth organs in the. presence of horses.
" The new censuses of France and Ger-
many show a marked falling off in the‘
rate of increase. In the case of France
th rate of increase was low enough be
fore; now it threatens to stop altogether,
Ind in many departments there has been
I considerable decrease. The addition to
the population in five years has only been
213,853,» bringing the totul'up to 37,885,-

only 1 per cent. per annum. Germany it
not quite so bad, but. the rate of increase
between 1870 and. 1880 was abnormally
high. The population by the latest re-
turn: is «(0,844,920, as compared with
