Tho Year TTKhont ft Summer. The rear 1816 was known thoughoul tho United States and Europe as the coldest ever experienced by any person then living. Very few persons now living can recollect it. June was the coldest ever known in this latitude; frost and ice were common. Almost every preen thing was killed, fruit nearly all destroyed. Snow fell to the depth ol ten inches in Vermont, seven in Maine, , three in the interior of New York, and also in Massachusetts. There were a few warm davs. All classes looked for them in that memorabls cold Rummer sixty eight years ao. It was called a dry season. Rut little rain fell. The wind ; blew steadily from the north cold and i fierce. Mothers knit extra socks and mit tens for their children in the spring, and woodpiles that usually disappeared during the warm spell in front of the houses were speedily built up again. Planting and shivering were done together, and the farmers who worked out their taxes on the country roads wore overcoats and mittens. In a town in Vermont a flock of sheep belonging to a farmer had been sent, as usual, to their pasture. On June 17 a heavy snow fell; the cold was intense, and the owner started away at noon to look for his sheep. "Ikttet start the neighbors soon, wife." he said in jest before leaving; "being in the middle of June I may get lost in the snow." Night came, the storm increased, and he did not return. The next morn ing the family sent out for help and started in search. One after another of the neighbors turned out to look for the missing man. The snow had covered up all tracks, and not until the end of the third day did they find him on the side of a hill, with both feet frozen, un able to move. A farmer who had & large field of corn in Tewksbury built fires around it to ward off the frost; many an evening he and his men took turns watching it. He was rewarded with the only crop of corn in the neighborhood. Considerable damage was done in New Orleans in cousequence of the rapid rise of the Mississippi river; the suburbs were covered with water and the roads were passable only in boats. Fears that the sun was cooling off abounded, and throughout New England all picnics were strictly prohibited. July was accompanied with frost and ice. On the 5th ice was formed of the thickness of -window glass throughout New England, New York, and some parts of Pennsylvania. Indian corn was nearly ail destroyed; some favorably situated fields escaped. This was true of some of the hill farms of Massachu setts. August was more cheerless, if possible, than the summer months which preceeded it. Ice was formed half an inch in thickness. Indian corn was so frozen that the greaterpart was cut down and dried for fodder. Almost e very green thing was destroyed in this coun try and in Europe. On the aoth snow fell at Burnet, forty miles from London. Papers received from England stated "that it would be remembered by the present generation that the year 1816 was a year in which there was no sum mer." Very little corn ripened in New England and the Middle States; farmers supplied themselves from corn produced in 1815 for seed in the spring of 1817. It sold at from $4 to f 5 per bushel. September furnished about two weeks of the mildest weather of the senson. Soon after the middle, it became cold and frosty; ice formed a quarter cf an inch in thickness. October produced more than its share of cold weather; frost and ice were common. The sum mer and autumn of 1810, cold, rainy, nnd ungeuial throughout Europe, were peculiarly so in France. Constant rains fell during the months of July, August, and September. But for an abundant potato crop, famine, with all its horrors, would have been her lot. The minister of the interior established granaries throughout, the kingdom, where corn was sold to the destitute at a reduced price. Prices rose, however, to more than double, and hundreds perished of actual want. November was cold and blustering; snow fell so as to muke good sleighing. December was mild and com fortable. Boston I'ranscript. me cost ot sickness. From an article in ''National Health and Work," by Mr. James Paget, printed in the Popular Science Monthly, we make this extract: I think, then, that we can not escape from tho reasons to believe that we lose in England and Wales, every year, in consequence of sickness, 20,000,000 weeks' work; or, say,asmuch work as 20,000,000 healthy people would do in a week. The number is not easily grasped by the mind. It' is equal to about one-for tieth part of the work done in each year by the whole population between fifteen and .sixty-five years old. Or.try to think of it in money. Bather more than half of it is lost by those whom the registrar general names the domestic, the agricul tural and the industrial classes. These are more than 7,500.000 in number, and tney lose about 11,000,000 Weeks; saV. for easy reckoning, at 1 a week; and here is a loss of 11,000, 000 sterling from what should be the annual wealth of the country. For the other classes, who are estimated as losing the other 9.000,000 weeks' work, it would be hard and unfair to make a guess in any known coin; for these include our great merchants, our judges and lawyers and medical men, our statesmeu and chief legislators; they include our poets and writers of all kinds", musicians, painters aud philosophers: and our prinres, who certainly do more for the wealth and welfare of the coun try than can be told in money.

BOW OUIrOliril BAHKERS WIS! DUPED IT ROOUES. A Vllnrr Scheme Which I"ntin fled TOnnr Mlllionnlre The i'lrsi Correct Storjr Now Told. A letter from San Francisco to tho New York Star tells this strange story: While in the reading-room of the Hum House this afternoon I met a friend who for a few years prior to the great crash of 1873 whs one of the boldest operators on the Slope. Halston's failure, however, drew him down, and since that time he has dropped out of the mad whirl of Cal ifornia speculation. He now owns a few vineyards down near San Diego, and is living quietly and contentedly. During our three hours' conversation my friend accidentally referred to the great dia mond hoax of thirteen years ago which duped a number of prominent California operators. Aware that the inside history of the swindle had never been mado pub lic, I cleverly got him started, and he divulged the following story: In 1871 two rough-looking prospectors walked iuto the Bank of California anrt asked for Mr. Halston, the cashier and leading spirit of the bank. They had two little buckskin bags, which they said con tained something, and they did not know exactly what it was. One of the bags they said they believed had diamonds in the" rough, but the other they said they did not "know what kind of a stone it was; they mout be garnets." Kalston laughed at the idea of " diamonds," but he asked to see them. There was about half a pint of black, dirty-looking crys tals, ranging in size from a pea to a hazel-nut. The other bag had dark, blood-red stones that were promptly pro nounced Arizona "garnets" by the great banker, and cat aside as worthless. He told the prospectors to leave the bag with the black crystals, and he would have them examined by experts. He did so. Professor Le Conte, the geologist of tho University of California, pronounced them diamonds. So did Professor Janin, the best mining expert in San Francisco. Shreve and other leading jewelers all agreed they were diamonds. Shreve had one partially cut, and it revealed a beau tiful white" stone. The question then arose, "Where did they como from?" Ralston was greatly excited. He called in Sharon, and even took D. O. Mills into his confidence. Tho two prospectors gave their names as William Arnold and Isaac W. Slack, and said they had been prospecting in Arizona and Utah and Wyoming, and they had found the stones in one of the regions named, but refused to say just where. They said, however, that there were "bushels" of the same kind left. The diamond fever grew, and finally Balston, Sharon, Nicholas Luning, a great San Francisco capitalist; William M. Lent, S. L. M. Barlow, of New York ; George I). Roberts, the present Postal telegraph man ; Michael Reese, the great Jewish millionaire, and several others formed a syndicate and agreed to take the "diamond fields" at 11,000,000, pro vided the representations of Arnold and Slack were verified by experts. Mean time the other little bag of specimens was submitted to tests and found to contain genuine rubies. Some were sent to New York to be cut, and were found to be genuine stones. These were said to come from the same "fields." When they had the bargain drawn up in black and white and ",000 paid as earnest money. Arnold and Slack revealed secretly to Kalston the location of the find and offered to pilot three of the bank's own experts to the ground. One morning in April, 1872, four disguised figures crept down in the dawn to the Oakland Ferry. They were Arnold, George D. Roberts, Henry Janin and George Hearst. Janin was the most ac complished geologist and mining en gineer in the city, and Roberts and Hearst were, and are yet, the best practical miners in California. The party took the cars and Arnold piloted them to Green river, Wyoming Territory. There they left the train, got muies and an ambulance and struck for the Green river mountains, forty-five miles south of the railroad. They were on the ground a week. The "diamond field" did not seem to be more than fifty acres in ex tent, and was at the base of a low range of barren red sandstone hills. They found diamonds in the greatest quantities scattered about in the low beds of dry gravel. They dug down and found them in groups of six and eight. They were all greatly excited except Arnold. When at the end of a week they prepared to leave they had more than a quart of dia monds and rubies of all sizes. Well, when they got back to San Francisco the town was atlame. A company was at once organized with $0,000,000 capi tal. The $1,000,000 to pay Arnold and Hack was advanced by Ralston, and in part made good by the syndicate. Rob erts, Luning, Lent, Ralston and Sharon each put in $100,000, and Barlow made up a pool in New York to take up $250, 0U0 more. Then the miblic bean to ckmnr fnr thd Ktnrlr hut. in frnfirlenr ( were the promoters of the scheme that I thev had a new Golconda that they locked the stock un in the bank of Cali- fornia and refused to let a Bhare go out. Arnold and slack took their money and left the coast. Arnold got $140,000 in cash. He went to Eliabethtown, Ky.. bought a magnificent farm and settled down. Slack went to Europe and was i uever heard ol again. ! Clarence King, the United States geolo- I gist, had made a survey ol that region, ' and remembered the exact spot in which I the diamonds were said to be found. He j knew it was not a diamond country. He suspected a fraud. Anyhow his reputation as a geological surveyor was at stake, and he went to examine it quietly by himself. 1 A week's close study revealed the whole , truth, and in an elaborate report he ; showed how the ground had been i salted, and even the mechanical appli ances used, Jle lound a lew oi the ilia ! monds, and unheasitatingly declared ! them of the same character as the stones I from South Africa. An investigation followed, and in a few montJis the whole j truth came out. Harpc " hadputup , the job, and had sup, nold and i Slack with the mouey to carry it out. ; The latter bought iu London $40,000 worth of rough diamonds and $10,000 1 worth of common rubies. They picked . them up at odd times and in odd lots, . and Arnold smuggled them into the ' country v way of Quebec. Slack, who had been in South Africa- selected the field and Clarence King said the im mediate region was well selected, too ? and together they planted them, poking them down one by one with alim steel rods. They also scattered some into a gravel bank" with a shot-gun, and it was this last method that King detocted by the powder stains. Tho company burst up at once, and Ralston and the rest set about recovering a portion of the money. Lent ad Rob erts hunted up Arnold in Kentucky, and it was said by some ho gave up a portion of the money, but others affirm that he never did. Several suits were begun, and not long after Arnold was murdered in a local quarrel. It wm a clean steal of about $1,000,000. How the Bedou.ns Conqnrr Thirst. In an article on "Tho Rescue of Chi nese Gordon," in the Century, General R. E. Colston, lato of the Egyptian Gen eral Staff, savs: "In the 'Waterless Land,' water is a paramount question. If it bo Bsked how a largo body of Bedouins like tho ten thousand who nearly destroyed the British squares at Tamai manage to subsist, tha reason is plain. In the first place, they do not need the enormous trains required for a European army. They are the most ab stemious of men. Each man carries a skin of water and a small bag of grain, procured by the purchase or barter from caravans. Their camels and goats move with them, supplying them with milk nnd meat, and subsisting upon the scanty herbage and the foliage ef the thorny mimosa, growing in secluded wadies. These people could live upon tho increase of their flocks alone, which they ex change readily for other commodities; but being the exclusive carriers and guides for all the travel and commerce that cross their deserts, they realize yearly large amounts of money. As to water, they know every nook and hol low in the mountains, away from the trails, where a few bar rels of water collect in some shaded ravine, and they can scatter every man for himself, to fill their water-skins. On my first expedition, near the close of the three years' drought, I reached some wells on which I was depending, and found them entirely dry. It was sejreral days to the next wells. But my Bedouin guides knew some natural reservoirs in the hills about six miles off. So they took the water camels at night-fall, and came back beforo daylight with the water-skins filled. An invading army would find it hard to obtain guides, and even if they did, they must keep to gether, and could not leave the line of march to look for water. Beside, the Bedouins, accustomed from infancy to regard water as most precious and rare, use it with wonderful economy. Neither men nor animals drink more than once in forty-eight hours. As to washing, they never indulge in such wasteful nonsense When Bedouins came to my camp, water was always offered them. Their answer would frequently be: 'No, thanks; I drank yesterday.' They know too well the importance of keeping up the habit of abstemiousness, rso wonder tney can subsist where invaders would quickly perish." Tar. Professor Peckham, in an interestiag article on tar, has this to say in regard to its manufacture : It was known to the ancient Greeks, and Dr. Clarke, who de scribes the method of manufacturing it in the forests of Bothnia, says there is not the smallest differences between the pro cesses then practised and those of ancient Greece. Along the whole coast of. the Gulf of Bothnia tho inhabitants are very generally engaged in this occupation. Thev make use of the roots of fir trees, with logs and billets of the same, which they arrange iu a conical stack, fitted to a cavity in the ground, generally in the side of a bank. In the bottom ol tui9 cavity is placed a cast-iron pan, from which a spout leads out through the bank. The heap is covered over with turf and is then fired, as in making charcoal. Tar collects in the latter part of the process of charring, and runs off through the spout into barrels. In Sweden, where tho business is also important, some peculiar methods are adopted to increase the yield of tar. Trees of no value for the saw-mill are partiully peeled of their bark a fathom or two up from the ground, not enough to kill them, but only to eneck tne growth. After five or six years, wnen cut down, the wood is found to be much richer in resinous matter, which pro duces tar. Along the coast of the South ern States, especially of North Carolina, Virginia and Georgia, the business is car ried on upon a large scale in connection with the manufacture of turpentine, rosin and pitch. Old trees which have cea-ed to produce turpentine, and dead wood which is rich in resinous matter, are selected for the coal-pits. The process there does not differ materially from that already described. Chicago InUr Ocean. Why I Whv is it that s tall man always has a week display of bef.rd? hy, on the other hand, does a little, short man inevitably carry a fierce mous tache that overshadows the entire coun tenance?

The compensation of the postmasters in the United States amounts to over tll.OftO.OOO per year. An Antique 16nn Still Unchanged. Why, I saw houses in Nuremburg that are not a day more than a hundred and fifty years old I I was shocked by the sight of a dozen, at least, plate glass windows. There is gas in Nuremburg. They have street cars there. Some of the city wall has been torn down to let in more of the nineteenth century. But hardly a sight or sound within the circuit of Rothenburg breaks in upon your miditrval dream. The narrow, dingy streets are lighted so far a lighted at all by lanterns. These aro hung on wires stretched across tho street, and are drawn in by pulleys at one side to bo re plenished. Street-rail or gas-lamn there are none. The town is hugged com pletely around with turreted gates. And the towers, as they throw their arms ten derly about their charge, look back to bid defiance to all modern institutions. At some points, the very water in the moat still sleeps in venerable stagnation. As your omnibus rattles under three or four successive arches into tho silent streets, tho lingering echoes of our new era dio away behind, and you drop four or five centuries from human history. You wander through the littlo city (of not more than 0,500 inhabitants') wherever your feet incline, and pass hundreds of houses, any ono ol which, like a certain old domicile in New London, Ct., or ono in Medford, Mass., would be tho chief "lion" of an American town. Most of them were standing before the Pilgrim fathers left Holland many of them before America was discovered. With their steep, tow ering, red-tiled roofs, their sculptured gateways and corner turrets for defense, and gloomy court-yards, they look down in lordly compassion on your freshness and your upstart nation beyond the sea. Hour after nour I roam the streets, look ing in vain for a modern house. Every street is paved throughout, with not a sidewalk to be seen. The primitive sim plicity and naturalness, too, of the Roth- enbergers, are charming. About every man you meet recognizes you as a strang er, and feeling that the town owes you a courtesy, touches his hat with a cordial smile. Not a bad example for some of us Americans. It must be granted that the odor of antiquity in some of tho by streets is slightly too strong for the most romantic. But one can pardon that and even overlook the torture chamber, undei the Rathhaus (of which the present gen eration is innocent) in consideration o. all the wierd fascination of the quaint old town. Prof. C. B. Wilcor. A Rustic Rejoinder. "How in the world can you content yourself to live in this dead-and-alive place !" asked the city visitor of he. country cousin.

Its top was torn away bv a storm; but six feet up the trunk two more trees have taken root and grown up as high as the old tree is. Half way up the trunk of the original tree a peach tree stands out. It is said that an electric hand lamp has been invented, the illuminating prin ciple of which is generated by some sim ple chemicals that are redicuously cheap and easily manipulated. A little sliding drawer at the bottom of the lamp holds the electric spark in the solution, while, by simple touching a button, a magnificent light is developed or ex tinguished, as the case may be. This lamp does not specially differ in appear ance from the ordinary kerosene affair, and can be used in the same way, but with a complete absence of trouble, odor or danger.
