RAKED FROM THE DEEP. HOW SPONGES ABE GATHERED, PREPARED AND MARKETED. It's Really an Animal's Skeleton One Bathes With—How It Grows and Is Reproduced—Sponge Fisheries. When a sponge is taken out of water it is a soft mass of animal tissue surrounding a frame work of horny, glass-like or limy liber. It is the horny kind that is the sponge of commerce. The sort used for bathing is the horny-fibercd skeleton of a most interesting marine creature, from which all the soft parts have been re moved, just as a human being might be divested of his flesh, leaving his bones behind. So delicately made is this horny structure that it is soft to the touch and absorbs water readily. There are thou sands of varieties of sponges, but not more than half a dozen are useful. A sprmge, as it is found growing on the bottom of the sea, is composed, apart from the skelctou that forms its frame work, of a multitude of cells. Each of these cells is occupied by an animal or ganism, but there is dispute as to whether the organisms are distinct individuals or merely parts of one individual, which is the sponge. This contention is based upon the same arguments involved in the controversy as to whether each bud on a tree has or has not an individuality distinct from that of tho parent stem. But at all events, it may be as well to consider the sponge as a single animal, growing by the substance it obtains from tho water. If you will look at the sponge you use for your bath you will see that it is covered all over with small holes, with here and there toward the top some large ones. Now try to realize that in life this creature, the skeleton of which you wash yourself with, was composed as to its fleshy parts of small cells. The whole structure as it was in life might be compared to a city intersected by canals. Ever so many little canals gave entrance to the sea water, which was ex pelled through the big orifices. In this way it was managed that no large foreign objects couhl be sucked in, while the sewers, as they might be called, were wide enough to drive anything out by. From all the cells that line the channels in the sponge are projected little hair like appendages, which keep up a con tinual motion, the object of which is to create a current of water in through the multitudinous small canals and out by the big pipes. So actively is this opera tion kept up that, looking at a sponge in shallow water, where it is growing, you will often sec a boiling and bubbling going on as if there was a spring in ebullition. The object of the animal in passing this current through its own sub stance is to bring within reach the animal and vegetable matters upon which it feeds. With the continuous current of water that passes through the canals sus tenance is carried sufficient for the creature to thrive on. Tho commercial sponges are found altogether in warm regions, the chief sources of supply being the Mediterra nean, the Red Sea, the Bahamas and Florida. It is from the Mediterranean that the fiuest grades are obtained, but to these the best American sponges arc not very inferior. It is largely popular prejudice that causes the best European sponges to sell for SSO a pound, while the super-excellent American varieties bring less than one-tenth of that price. Altogether there arc six varieties of sponges known to commerce. The grades into which they are divided are determined not merely by kind, but also by size, shape and structure. A sponge of the most exquisite quality may be so misshapen as to bo worthless and un marketable. On the nature of tho bot tom upon which a sponge grows its grade commercially may largely depend. Of most interest to people in this country are the sponge grounds of Flor ida, which cover tho reefs along tho south end of that State, extending up the west shore as far as St. Mark's and Apalachee Bay. These grounds have a total area of 3500 square miles, and sponge fishing is carried on all over them by a large fleet of vessels, which rendezvous chiefly at Key West. A sponge-li3hing craft goes out early in the week, returning at the end of six days perhaps to the nearest shore and depositing its catch in an iuclosuro built out into the ocean, to which the sea has easy access. The tides, rising and fall ing alternately, leave the sponges to die and wash away their soft parts, so that at the end of the week, when the vessel comes back with a fresh load, all of the previous catch has been pretty well skeletonized. Depositiug the fresh caught sponges ia the "stockade," the fishermen take the old ones and go off on another cruise for more, hanging the decayed animals all over the rigging, in order that they may become finally dried and dessicated. In this way, bringiug in one batch and taking out another, a schooner usually manages to get a cargo within a month or two and then sets sail for Key West. There tho sponges are taken ashore and stacked in piles on the beach according to variety. They are sold to traders, who examine the piles and give bids on them in writing. After they are purchased in this way the sponges arc packed tightly IU bales by hydraulic pressure and shipped to New York, which is the centre of the indus try iu this country. In the Mediterranean sponges are lakeu by dredges dragged along the bottom and by divers, who go down naked and have no difficulty in detaching them from the bottom. On the American coast the sponge producing waters are shallower, not exceeding thirty-five feet in depth, and the ordinary method pursued by the fishermen is this: Two men go out in a boat. One sculls, while the other leans over the bow with his face close to the water, holding a spear in his hand. When "ne sees a sponge he spears it and drags it into the boat. If the water is rough the man with the spear uses a water glass, which is made by simply knocking out the bottom of an ordinary pail aud putting a pane of glass in place of it. The spearsmnn wears this watei glass hanging around his neck and sinki it below the surface so that he can set the things below as well as if there wai a calm. When he sees a sponge he jabf at it.— Washington Star. WISE WORDS? Get to the root of things. The idle boy is often father of the tramp. It will not do to have two mainmasts in a ship. Experience is an admirable teacher, though often very severe and expensive. There is poetry and there is beauty in real sympathy; but there is more—thero is action. Habits of industry are as truly the re sult of training and association as are habits of idleness and negligence. Provide some useful employment for the children, then make it as agreeable as possible so they will love their work and take an interest in it. It is no doubt a difficult thing to do, to defy the power of society, but the sky and earth will always cover a man, and uo one can boast of being better cov ered. A person will be more comfortable to be society ostracised, even if all doors arc closed against him, than to carry a hypocritical heart encased in the most faultless manners. The noblest and most powerful form of sympathy is not merely the respon sive tears, the echoed sigh, the answer ing look; it is the embodiment of the sentiment in actual help. As a penny held close to the eye will shut out the glorious light of the sun, so the habit of petty gossip, mean and poor as it is, will quite obscure all the light which intelligence, thought and warm sympathy would shed upon hu manity. See that your child never leaves any task half done or slovenly finished; there fore give not too many tasks. Thorough ness is the cornerstone of success. No place in the world now for smatterers; but always honorable places for those who can do any kind of honest work in the best manner. Brevity is justly demanded of all who seek attention of the public in this nine teenth century and in this brief human life. We need to set high value upon directness and dispatch. Time flies. The average man is very busy. The age is of rapid movement; it is the era of railroad, telegraph, telephone. There fore, waste no words; what thou hast to say, say quickly. The Properties of Alumiumu. To the layman a few statistics about aluminum may be instructive. The ato mic weight is 27.4. With iron three or four poucds of aluminum to tho ton reaches the melting point to such a liquid state that it can be run into the finest interstices of the mould and pro duce the finest castings and considerably improve the quality of the iron. With copper very easily amalga mates, improving the quality, appear ance and resembles gold. Useful results are obtained with about five per cent. Aluminum also amalgamates with many other metals, and this is a boundless track for experiments. Aluminum is sonorous, and doubtless when alloyed with other metals would produce as good an effect as now can bo produced from the finest bell metal. Its lightness in this respeet would be of ad vantage for high elevations. The specific gravity of the metal is 2.55. It is about one-seventh the weight of gold, about one-fifth the weight of lend, a.;d,roughly speaking, about one-third the weight of copper, zinc or iron. The melting point of aluminum i3 about 1500 degrees Fahrenheit, while that of iron is almost double this temperature. The electrical conductivity is stated to be eighteen times that of iron. Its elas ticity may be taken to be equal to silver. It is non-soluble in sulphuric acid,which acid, produced from coal combustion, is so destructible to iron, zinc and marble. It can be beaten ihto plates as thin as tissue-paper and drawn out into wire as attenuated as the the finest silk. It does not oxidize like iron, consequently does not rust, and requires no paints or pro tection from the influence of the atmos phere.—lron and Steel Traded Journal. Two Polite Naval Officers. A retired officer of the navy said: "The true Chesterfield of the navy, so far as my experience and estimate goes, wits Rear-Admiral William E. Leroy, who died in ISBB, When Admiral Farragut commanded the European Squadron, just after the war, Rear-Ad miral, then Captain, Leroy was his Chief of-Staff. One day the Franklin (flag ship) arrived in a French port, dropped her anchor, and before tlicro was time to get out her accommodation ladder, a French Captain, Chief-of-Staff to the resident Port Admiral, came on board to pay his respects to Admiral Farragut. Captain Leroy received him at the gang way, escorted him to tho Admiral's cabin, where he made a brief visit, offer ing tho usual civilities, etc., then re turned with him to the quarter-deck and accompanied him to the gangway, both bowing and scraping like French dane ing-masters. Finally, the French Captain stepped up into the gangway, and, facing about, made his farewell bow; then, forgetting that there was no outside ladder shipped, stepped back on what he thought would be the upper loading,aud of course went overboard like a shot—epaulettes, cocked hat, sword and all. Leroy im mediately gave the order to 'lower the life-buoy;' then taking his station in the gangway, watched for the reappearance of the Frenchman, and as he bobbed up serenely, made him a most profound salaam. The French Captain was saved from drowning, but it is said he died only a few days later of a broken heart. O lobe- Democrat.

The question of higher schools fol Rirls in London has recently been afr tracting much attention. In New York City home weddings are quite the fashion, as church ones are voted so very "common." Some of the women of Paris are wear ing entire dresses for fur, which do not require any cloaks or wraps. Many of the new morning wraps are is the new turquoise color. This is rathel trying for morning complexions. Clever draughtswomen are in demand by dry goods houses to make pen and ink sketches of gowns, furs and the like. There are now women students at the Russian universities of St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kiew, Charkow and Odessa. Irish poplin is a fabric—a most excel lent and reully beautiful one—which for durability will outlast two silk gowns. "Women were admitted to the Oxford (England) examinations for the degree of bachelor of medicine by a single vote. Winter dresses for day wear are made of wool rather than silk, though some times there is a combination of the two. The so-called bebe dresses,which have been designed expressly for ladies in the bloom of womanhood, are very popular. The Queen of the Belgians is an ex cellent linguist and has just accomplished the task of learning the Walloon lan guage. Some of the designs in passementerie comprise five pieces—a collarette, up right crescents for the shoulders and deep cuffs for the wrists. The fashionable young woman who has a dog and a bangle orders a collar for her canine's neck to match the bau ble she wears on her arm. Fashionable women are undecided whether to employ the Russian samovar, the English teapot or the Dutch kettle at their fivo o'clock teas. The Duchess of Portland is endeavor ing to revive the woolen industry, which is carried on in many cottage homes about Lungwcll, England. Pink velvet strings are said to be a very becoming feature of dress bonnets. They always accompany hats which are orna meuted with pink roses or other flowers. Great clusters of soft pinks ore worn on white bonnets. The Silver Cross Circle of King'» Daughters proposes soon to open a house in New York City where apartments of one, two or three rooms will bo rented at the lowest possible rate to widows with children to support. Among the many varieties of hats for young girls fashionable this season, it ii noted that the English "pork pie" haa returned in the original shape after an absence of twenty years. Thus does fashion history repeat itself, too. A decorative bow showing two colors of satin ribbon and covered with a spider web, whose realism is enhanced by th« presence of two spiders, and an autumn leaf is one of the prettiest designs of tha season which no ingenuity can discoun* teuance.

There is a lake of boiling water in the Island of Dominica,lying in the mountains behind Roseau, and in the valleys sur rounding it are many solataras,or volcanic sulphur vents. In fact the boiling lake is little bettter than a crater filled with scalding water constantly fed by mount ain streams, and through which the pentup gases find vent and are rejected. The temperature of the water on the margin of the lake ranges from 180 de grees to 190 degrees Fahrenheit. In the middle, exactly over the gas vents, it is believed to be about 800 degrees. Where this action takes place, the water is said to rise two, three, or even four feet above the general surface level of the lake, the cone often dividing so that the orifices through which the gas escapes are legion in number. This violent disturbance over the gas jets causes a violent action over the whole surface of the lake, and though the cones appear to be special vents, the sulphur ous vapors rise with equal density over its whole surface. Contrary to what one would suppose, there seems to be in no case violent action of the escaping gases, such as explosions oi detonations. The water is of a dark-gray color, and having been boiled over and ever for thousand of years, has become thick and slimy with sulphur. As the inlets to the lake are rapidly closing it is believed that it will assume the character of a gey scr or sulphurous crater.— Neio York Jour nal. Transmitting Pictures Electrically. Not many months ago a new system of sending pictures by telegraph was de ecrilxxl in the electrical journals. The principle of this process was the division of the picture to be sent into squares, each square being numbered to corre spond with a paper similarly prepared and to be used at a distant point, to be drawn upon according to the direction sent from the transmitting station by tho number communicated. While applic able to pictures having only straight lines, the process was not found feasible for the transmission of portraits. For this purpose an improved method hag been suggested, by which it is claimed that an exact reproduction in chiaroscuro of the original photograph ran be elec trically transmitted to the receiving sta tion.—New York Commercial Advertiser.
