SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.
The manufacture of cigarettes has increased, in thirteen years, from £38,000,000 to 2,877,000,000.
—A San Francisco woman has invented a clamp to hold a fowl fast to the dish while it is wrestled with by the amateur carver. Thus vanished another excuse for bachelorhood —Indianapolis Journal.
—In this country $3,000,000 acres of land are being farmed by irrigation. France owes its wonderful success in gardening to this system, and in late years Italy has spent over $200,000,000 for this purpose.
—In Manitoba, Canada, there were 18,937 farmers in 1891, each averaging 78.5 acres under cultivation. The average price of improved land is $10.93 per acre, of unimproved $6.96, the percentage of land taken up by settlers was 62.7, and the percentage fit for cultivation 74.8.
- Gambier is the second largest vegetable product of the Malay peninsula. It is a most important tanning material, is used as a brown dye, as a medicine and in silk works. England imports gambier to the value of $2,300,000 annually, and our American imports are close to $1,000,000.
—The first manufacturing enterprise started in America is said to have been a glass factory, which was built in 1008, about a mile from Jamestown, Va., and from this was exported the first North American manufactured product. This factory soon fell into decay; but another was built in 1631 for the purpose of making glass beads for the Indians.
Colorado is usually thought of only as a rinsing state, but with the success and spread of irrigation she is pushing 'o the front as a fruit-producing state. A very large crop of the most luscious watermelons in the country is raised in Colorado, and the product is of such importance that watermelon day is a special holiday all over the eastern portion of the state; the governor usually attends the festivities at the watermelon growing center and excursionists attend in thousands. This year Colorado has produced 2,200,000 quarts of strawberries.
—Swedish iron, which is soft, yet strong and dau'ile, is almost free from phosphorus and sulphur. It is held to be practically inexhaustible, though taken out at the rate of about a million of tons a year. It is found all through the country, though mined chiefly in central Sweden, in the Dannemora district. Several of the heights as truly deserve to be called iron mountains as those in Missourd, and there is one in Gellivare, in Swedish Lapland, beyond the Arctic Circle, where the ore occurs in four gigantic strata, that would supply nearly all the iron that the country would require in a century. —Minerals.
—Experiments made at the Royal Danish Academy have demonstrated approximately the height of the aurora borealis. M. Adam Paulsen, at Godthaab, by means of two theodolitics situated four miles apart, found that different aurora displays varied from one to four miles in height. Experiments near Cape Farewell showed the height of different auroras to vary from one to ten miles. At Spitzenberg the range of height was from one-third to eighteen miles. In some of the earlier experiments in this direction the observers concluded that the height of auroras varied from ninety to five hundred miles.
—In a recent number of Le Genie Civil, M. P. F. Charon says that the products of combustion from a charge of dynamite have been found to be approximately; Steam, 19 per cent; carbonic oxide and carbonic acid, 58 per cent; nitrous products, 15 per cent, and nitroglycerine vapor in varying quantity. The carbonic oxide, nitrous compounds and nitro-glycerine vapor are very deleterious, and their formation should be prevented. This M. Charon says, can best be done by using a more powerful detonator, say one to thirteen gramme, instead of one-half gramme of fumilene, thus making the combustion more perfect. To counteract the effects of the injurious fumes the author recommends a draught of strong, pure coffee and the inhalation of ammonia, sulphurous acid or concentrated acetic acid.

DILEMMA OF A PRINCE.
He Has Two Rather Compromising Law-suits on His Hands.
Our Rome correspondent sends us some interesting details of two lawsuits now going on against Prince Sciarra-Colonna, says the London Daily News. In the first the government is charging him with the sale and exportation of rare pictures and objects of art to France, and in the second his creditors are suing him. As to the pictures, it has been found how the prince succeeded in exporting them. At the back of his palace is a theater, the Quirino. Into the courtyard of the palace large boxes were carried similar to those in which theatrical companies transport stage properties. Then the "Violin Player" of Raphael and pictures by Titian were packed in these, together with the scenery, and the whole was sent to France scheduled as "theatrical furniture." The "Violin Player" is famous as being one of Raphael's last works. It bears the date 1815—two years before his death—and it is interesting as bearing a resemblance to the painter. This act has been impugned as illegal, firstly, because the gallery is entailed, and secondly, because, even if it were not so, the exportation of objects of art is prohibited unless the right of preemption is offered to the government.
OYSTERS IN ALL STYLES.
