Dr. Schulz, who has just returned to London from Africa, snvs that "the publio impression that the continent of Africa is no longer the unexplored area of the old map is a mistake. What has been done is to stake out territories along definito routes, but within the90 lines the country is gen erally as unknown as in the time of Mungo Park. Dr. Schulz has traversed and surveyed a vast tract of country wnicn no white traveler has ever seen before. This new territory lies be tween tuo Krmsu dominions in the west and northwest, and the Congo and German territories in the south west and west. Through these un known lands flows a large river called by the natives Chobe, which empties itself into the Zambeze. Insomnia.

IVpnlor Scienco News. ThA lllr.vrle Tlirratpneil. This country has witnessed so many revolutions in methods of locomotion that he is a bold man who ventures to declare what mny not happen in mat ters of that sort. The steam locomo tive is much younger than many men now living, nnd there are ninny who predict that it will be a back number before many more years have passed. The predictions of the general substi tution of electricity for steam as a motive poweayire becoming more frequent and ihore confident. This generation will probably see their ful fillment in a large measure. And now comes from no less noted a seer than Thomas A. Edison that the bicycle iB in danger of losing something of its wonderful and rapidly acquired popu larity. Mr. Edison believes that there will Boon be on the market a light and noiseless motor-bicyclo which will re tail at 8100 or less, and says that when Uie new machine appears it will make the bicyclo take second place as rapidly as the bicycle has displaced the horse. There are now many makes of horse less carriages, and they are being im proved constantly. They are still so expensive, however, that their use is very limited, and they are seldom seen outside of the great cities. Such a motor-vehicle as Mr. Edison expeots wonld certainly cut deep into the bicycle business, but at present the bicycle moves ahead conquering and to conquer. And no matter what may come the bicycle will remain with ns for the convenience, comfort and joy of mankind, even though some new-fangled thing shonld capture a part of its present onstitnency. At lanta Journal. Rnpbl Motion AftYrH Children. Dr. John Madison Tnylor, in an article on "Children of Feeble Resist ance; Their Cnre and Management," published in the Medical Times and Hospital Gazette, December 19. 1890, says thnt it is very unwise to snbmit babies to rapid journeys and the look ing out of windows at swifly passing objects while flying along. He says that he has seen migraine develop ap parently through the custom of giving small children exercise in a carriage with a pair of fast horses every day. Certain instances of profound distur bance have been caused by this means, and it is reasonable to infer that a continuance of such measures may produce lasting damage upon so deli cate an organ as the eye, aud the whole sensitive organism is thus im periled. It is also unwise to encour age a child to sleep while being driven about. The motion is both regular and subject to sudden irregularities. The persistence of one Kind of mo tion up aud down is bad, not only pro ducing unsound sleep, but keeping np a molecnlar agitation which has little to recommend it. If the infant be suf ficiently old to sit up or bo held up by the nurse, a strain is put upon the spinal column. Thus continuous mild concussions are administered to the brain and spinal cord; tho eye is put upon a strain, thus acting directly upon the brain; an element of excite ment is introduced, and physiological irritability is the probable result. Medical Record. BallroatU Conquer China. The Chinese government is slowly but surely pushing forward the rnil road from Tientsin to Pekiu, and it is expected that soon the traveler will be able to go by rail from the seashore to the gates of the mysterious capital. This will add about ninety miles to the 121 of the road from Tientsin to the Kaipiug coal mines, which now con stitute the railway system of China. The spell of prejudice has been broken and several other mil way enterprises are now on foot. The chief of these, a great trunk line from Pekin south westerly to Hankow on the coast, a distance of some 1100 miles, has al ready been started, with a small gov ernment subsidy, but its rapid con struction is not to be expected. A short road from Shanghai to Woosuug is also in progress. Jelly From Coal. In Perthshire lately, workmen en gaged in cutting some deep draiuage trenches dug into a bed of old peat some feet below the surface. At the bottom of this was a layer nix inches thick of a kind of tough, black jelly. Some of it was thrown out, and soon dried in the sun, when it wus found to have hardened into a brittle substance nut uulike anthracite coal. It burned with a clear, bright flame, aud left an ash quite like ordinary coul. All coul has been peat at one time or another, aud here it is supposed we have caught it in the actual process of transformation. wmm 'i. r - J 1' 1 m 1 HEMS OF APVEXTCUE. i HRILLING INCIDENTS AND DARINC DEEDS ON LAND AND SEA.

"Whon you get away from the towns and more thickly settled parts of Cen tral America into the forest clearings yon will find thnt tho native houses are lnilt upon posts well above the ground. This is in part to protect the dwellers from dampness in the rainy season and to keep out repti'es, but the principal reason for putting the houses upon posts is for the safety of the residents against tigers, the nntne by which jnguars are generally called in Central nml South America.. .Tamos Slmrpley, now was tuo speaker, and t.:...jTHIiiij some of his experiences in Central America, where ho had traveled as agent of a rubber-buying firm. "Those who think lightly of the courage of tlio people in these southern regions might reconsider their opinion if they had seen tho performance of a boy who acted bs attendant, guide, nnd porter for mo during a three weeks' trip among the rubber gatherers of Costa Hien. lie was of mixed Indian aud negro blood, an active, intelligent, good-tempered young fellow, without a trace of Bchool education, but perfectly at home and master of the situation in the tropical forest. One night we were stopping at a little settlement called Las Contreras. I was a guest at the house of the head man, who had as signed me his best chamber. My boy Joso Jose Maximo was his full name had swung his hamm,ock from two posts of the veranda directly in front of my door, which opened upon the veranda. I was sitting with my host outside the doer at nbotit 8 o'clock in the evening. It was a clear starlit night, with a full moon lighting up the clear ing and the dozen little houses about the great one where I was, and show ing tho blackness of the den Be forest that hemmed us in on every side. In his hammock Jose lay smoking cig arettes, his machete hanging froui a peg in the post behind him. "Jose had a dog that accompanied us in onr travels, a big native brute that he set a great deal by. Like Central American dogs in general it never barked, but would growl or yell or whine on occasion; and had a vnlue to us as a watch dog. This dog, seeking, perhaps, the companionship of its kind, had wandered from the house. My host was in the act of tell ing me that, while there undeniably were tigers in the forest, they never ventured near Las Contreras, when Jose, missing his dog, called it. From the shadow of a hut near tho edge of the forest the dog came trotting to ward its master. There was a clear space about sixty yards in width for it to cross, and I was lazily watching the dog's moving, tawny form, of a tint not easy to distinguish, even in the bright moonlight, against the yel lowish green of the low tropical plants. It had got half way across the opening when from the deep forest shadow came bounding toward it, precisely as a rubber ball bounds along on the ground, a creature vastly larger, that we did not see until it was almost upon the dog. " 'Tigrel Tigrel' shouted my host, jumping to his feet. Like a flash Jose came out of, his hammock upon his feet and seized his machete from the peg. He hod. wrapped his grass woven blanket round his arm and leaped to the ground when the jaguar Bpraug upon the dog, which had started to run, but was overtaken in a jifly. The weight ofthe jaguar crushed the dog to the clh-th; there was one yell, shut off half way as the jaguar's teeth "found its throat; there was a brief struggle, then the jaguar seized the dog midway of its back, lifting it as lightly as a cat would lift a rat, and turned back toward the forest just as Jose oame up. He was not in time to strike the iaeruar a blow. but he threw his machete at it, wound! ing tue beast in his hindqunjrters. In stantly the jaguar turned, dropped the dog aud leaped upon Jose, who was rushing forward to get hold of his weapon, which had fallen to the ground. The shock nearly threw him down, but he kept his feet, and, pro tecting his face and throat with the blanket wrapped around his left arm, he staggered toward the plaoe where the machete was lying, the jaguar clinging to him with its claws as he went. "As soon as I fuirly realized what was taking pluce it took some valu able seconds to do this, the whole thing caioe so suddenly I doged into my room wnere my nne stood In a corner. As I came out on the veranda. rifle in hand, Jose, stooping to seize nls machete, was forced to the ground, where he lay ou his back with the jaguar above him still tearing savagely at the blanket, and trying to get to his throat. Jose had got hold of his machete and was using it with his right hand; but he could only thrust upward at the jaguar, having no chance to give the sweeping blows which is what the machete is made for. I came within ten paces of them, but the juguar paid no attention to me. 'Lie quiet, Jose, I'm going to Bhoot,' I culled to tho boy in Spanish, and tired at the jaguar's shoulder. The oreature whirled half round as if it would spring at me, then sank side wise to the ground, pitching forward upon its right shoulder, which mv bullet had broken. Jose sprang to his feet. I did not dare fire again, as he was in my direct line of aim, but he was equal now to dealing with the beast uloue. With a blow of his machete he severed its spiue, and second stroke cut its head half off, end ing the tight. "The juguar measured eight feet two inches in length, and was a heavy, powerful, vicious looking beast. Jose was badly clawed in the legs by the lugnar s bind paws, out lie did not re gurd his wounds as serious enough to prevent our continuing our journey next day; the principal importance he attached to the tight seemed to be the loss of his dog." A Mall Carrier's Terrible JUde. Some years ago Fort Benton had a daily moil from Heleuu. The stuge cooch brought it three duys of the week, and ou the alternating duys the mail-sack was brought ou horseback or in a light wagon. The wagon was driven bv a youni bov. Bob Ct bv nanio, This Iniy knew the road per fectly, and was warmly dressed, and perhaps his people were not old enough to the country to know that he could be in danger from blizzards. One Friday morning, an honr after Hob had left Sun Kiver Landing for Kenton, a blizzard of the wildest de scription set in. In a few moments the road was obliterated and rendered ex actly like all tho rest of the boundless plain. Dob had no idea which way ho was going, nnd decided that his only chance was to give the horse his head and let him go where he would. The mail was smnll nnd the wagon light- and so was Bob and he had no doubt the nnimnl would pull through some where. But before long the horse was ns hopelessly lost ns the boy. Ho wandered and wandered, and found no way out of the desert. The blizzard increased in intensity, aud ns Bob was well wrapped on his seat, he could do no better than continue to sit there and keep the horse going. This he did throughout the wholo of a dreadfulajlny, thnt soemed to Bob, and doubtless to the horse, too, longer than an ordinary week. At last night came on ; nnd just at this timo Bob and his horse struck a considerable patch of tall grass, the tops of which came np through the snow. Hero Bob decided to camp for the night. He could at least feed the horse with the grass, though there was no food for him. Though "the Btorm still raged with unabating fury, Bob succeeded in making a fire by pulling and matting the tall grass, and. got through the night alive. In the morning the sun shone brightly, though tho fine, powdery snow still filled the air. Bob could not make out where he was; nothing was plain to him except that he was far from the road to Benton, aud that not a single familiar object met his gaze; but he still trusted to the horse to find the way. Mounting his Beat, cold and very hungry, he gave the rains to the horse and bnde him "go on." On he did go, but not in the right di rection. The endless march of the day before was repeated. The weather was frightfully cold. Here and there, where a bunch of tell grass came through the snow, the horse stopped to browse.nnd Bob let him do so as often as he wished. Another night came, and another day, and days and nights after these, and still Bob and the horse and wagon wondered, getting farther and farther away from civilizntion all the time; the horse supporting life by browsing the grass, but Bob slowly growing weaker nnd freezing.for the weather continued intensely cold. . Meantime tho people of Benton had started out to search for the missing boy. The whole region between Sun River and Benton was thoroughly Bearcued, but no trace found of either horse or boy. A week after the disap pearance the search was abandoned. The people had no doubt that boy and horse had perished iu the storm, and been covered up by the drifting snow. lut valuable letters were in the mad- bag, aud ten days after Bob had disap peared some of the parties interested in these letters employed Bill Bowe to go out in search of tho bag not of Bob. Billy went on horseback, and rode for and wide. Passing over some rising ground, he thought he perceived a moving object in a distant coulee, and went toward it. As he approached he saw that it was a horse, slowly draw ing a light wagou and that in the wagon was seated a small human fig ure. At length Billy saw that it was Bob Cosey and the mail-wagon. Bob seemed to have settled down to sleep; but now and then he would straighten np, grab the reins, and at tempt to gnido the horse, only to drop back iuto his seat a moment later ap parently unconscious. Uowo overhauled them and shook the boy. He could get no answer, but at any rate the boy was alive. Itowe wrapped biin up anew, nnd started for Twenty-eight Miles Springs,, the nearest place. Here he gave the boy stimulants, and then when on to Ben ton. At the hotel the speeohless and almost lifeless boy was placed in a sit ting posture, with his feet in a tub of cold water. Uo could eat nothing, but light stimulants were forced down his throat, and in that position he slept for thirty-six hours, being occasionally aroused for tho stimulants. He recovered, but it was found necessary to amputate both bis feet. A big purse was made up for him, and he was sent East to school. Seven Wolves HngKed by ft Youngster. A son of James Virter had a remark able experience the other day with a large she wolf. The boy lives in On tario Township, Illinois, and is but fourteen years old. He left home on horseback, taking and axe and a dog, thinking that he might find a squirrel or two in the timber. After he had gone some distance, the dog charged toward a hollow log and begau barking furiously, but did not dare enter. The boy, getting olwLis horse, kneeled and peered iuto the cavity, aud saw glar ing out upon him the fierce eyes of a largo wolf, arouud which were six pup pies. She snapped her teeth vicious ly. The boy, with rare oourage for one of his age, hastily sharpened some stakes with his axe aud drove them over the entrance to the log, the dog mean while keeping the wolf inside. After having imprisoned the animal the boy mounted his horse, rode quickly home and returned with a small revolver. He then, lying prone on the ground, be gan firing into the log, and did not cease until he had killed the wolf, which hud mude desparate efforts to get out. The lad killed the pups with his uxe aud loaded his victims upon the horse. He was paid a bounty iu Gules burg on all seven wolves. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. A Hoy's Ideal lMnner.

It Is almost a pity to Rive away theso trade secrets, but they are public, now In sworn testimony. After reading this the bibber will no longer smack his lips, look wise and give expres sion to a deep, satisfied "A-u-h-h" after a glass of bis favorite tipple. W. A. Taylor, wine merchant and e.xKrt, to-duy swore that certain foreign firms on labels of some wines have no existence In fact. Fine cog nac, ho said, could bo mado from roasted almond shells and essential oils. This drink, lie said, would fool tho average drinker. In bottling wlno for retnllers or private stock, tho sellers put the names of the buyers and other marks on ths "Imported" oasks or bottles. In. clarets, for Instnnco, some cf the bottles mny be labeled "Sledoo" and some "St. Julian." In illustrating be said: "A party of gentlemen mny go Into a c afo, and one man says, 'I guess I'll take a 8t. Julian,' and another savs. 'I don't cnre for that; I'll tnko Medoe.' "Well, In most cases these gentlemen aro fooled, and both wines generally come from the same cask." Con tinuing, Mr. Tnylor cited a case In point, where an Italian denier had sold a ease of Italian vermouth for $2.60. He said the duty on this was 1.C0, and the freight 14 cents, so the dealer sold the "Imported stuff" for Just Mi ceuts for a dozen bottles, "bordeaux" t lie same dealer sold for 11.(15 for a ease of twelve bottles, where the duty ond freight alone would have cost Jl.flJ. Now, ouo would linnplne that all this stud sold under bogus labels and fraudu lent all tho way through goesimplv to the lower class of liowery saloons and Tender loin cafes. That Is whero the mistake Is made, as the next qucxtion brought out. The witness In his testimony admitted that tho largest hotels here, of the "highest olas bought wines and cordials from him lu Jk. Ho bottled and labeled tho bottles "St. Julian" nnd "Medoo" aud "Margau," It all, he said, enma from the same cask aud fooled even the dolicatu palates of the hotel habitues. That tho smaller dealers a,ro not alone la this Imposition on the stomaahs of this country was shown from tho Vice-President of tho Wlno and Spirit Traders' Soeioty that lie himself had hot tied a hogshead of St. Julian for bottles vui-iously labeled "Modoc," "St. Julian" and "Pontot Canet." Evidences of Improvement. In Archbishop Ireland's work, just pub llshod, he has an Interesting chapter on "Intemperance ind Law," In which ho es timates that throughout the United States 8.000,000 persons frequent burrooms and tn dulgo Immoderately lu aloohollo drink, writes Ilobert I. l'orler. It Is estimated that tho annual drink bill of the country talis but little, If at all, under tho enor mous sum of 0110 billion dollar. Theso es timates were based undoubtedly on the tlg nres of ten yenrs ago. Tho Archbishop, If he has not consulted the more recent llg nres, will bo glad to learu that there are evidences of improvement In this respect, and that more recent statistics cut the to tul dowu to H62.O!)O,O00, which, when we consider tho lucreaso of population, Is a good showing. Iu comparison with tho Dnitod Kingdom, tho United States has every roaxou to feol grutilled, as tho per capita expended for alcoholic, drink Is (17.15 In the one case, against $10.20 lu the other. Part of this diifcrenco may bo due to the fact that alcoholic beverages aro un doubtedly cheaper here than ou the other siilo, but a considerable part of the do croaso may bo directly traced to the excol lont temperance work done. Picayune. Virtues of Water. Dr, Qoorge Henry Fox, professor of dis eases of the skin In the New York College of Physicians, snys: "It Is quite certuia that few people drink too much water and I feel mire that many unpleasant feelings and symptoms of actual disease would quickly disappear if the sufferers ap preciated the value of this best and cheap est of all remedies (pure water)?' l)r. Charles L. Dana, professor of nervous dis eases iu tho New York Post Graduate Medical School, in an article on diet In nervous diseases, says; "Water should bo drunk between meals or before meals, and a moderate amount at meals. At least three pints, or about six tumblorfuls, should he tuken daily. American neurotics do not drink water enough. They have halt dessicutod nerves and dessleation in creases nervous irritability." Those who believe that they must have aleouolia stimulants to keep them in good bodily condition should lay tho above wise words to heart. A Word of Alarm. The Central Woman's Christian Tetnner- auce Union, of Chicago, has Issued a word of alarm aud warning to youug girls con cerning the drinks obtainable at tho soda fountains of that city. They are culled by different names sherry tilp, claret eanga reo, creme do meuthe, calisuya, etc. aud are ordered by youug girls for a oold, or to take the place of a iuueheon, or for a chance to sit down and rest after a busy, tiresome day ut shopping. Those drluks all contain lurge quantities of alcohol, and, while the girls would indignantly spurn a glass of whisky, and hold up their hunds in horror at the thought oTTtiui or brandy, yet in their sodu-fouutain beverage they get all the effects of the liquor uud the growing appetite for it thrown in.

Conway, living on F.rie street, Dorchester, Mass., who had been, according to her own testimony, suf fering for a long time with physical nnd Dervous weakness, nccompntiled' by palpi tntion of tho heart ami Irregularity of func tions. "It Is true," she snld, "thnt t hnve met with A remnrknblo restoration through the use of .')r. Williams' Pink Pills. For some time I was completely run down, and the cnre of a fnmlly wns a great strnin upon me. My Hps were white and my heart pal pltnted so severely that I could not go np and down stnlrs without great distress. My oigestion, too, was weak, ami 1 can truly say that I was sulTering from n general lack of vitality. "I took Pink rills with misgivings, but after taking only a smnll quantity I was agreeably surprised to find that they were nil nnd more than they had been described to be. "From the very first time of taking the pills I began to notice their beneficial ef fect, and I found myself gradually and rap Idly overcoming tho varied physlenl weak nesses that seemed to have fastened upon me; my white Hps were restored to their normal tinge, I regnlned color In my face, and as for the heart trouble I may say that It has completely vsnlshed, and I can tiow go up and down stnlrs without any palpi tation whatever. Heretofore I had blnck specks before my eyes and a tendency to (llr.r.iness. but now my head Is clear and my vision is unimpaired. "I shall continue to uso the rink rills," said Mrs. Conway, "and to recommend them to my friends. I hnve found them to do great benellt, nnd I find that their use not only relieved meof the purtlculnrtrou Me which I had, but acted as n general tonic fur my whole system. It seems to me that' tho moro they aro known the moro they will come Into general use, for people have been ho often deceived as to remedies thnt claim to cure everything that they are glnd to llnd one that does exactly what Is claimed for It," Inquiries of physicians and apothecaries In this section also indicate that such cotfes as thnt of Mrs. Conway nro proving to bo the prototypes of manv others. l)r.
