Pr eel The news comes from India that nearly every building 10 Galcutta has been injured by the racent earthquake there, and thet still greater damage has been done in the villages of the .in- * terior: : This is not unexpected; thats, while we did not know of an earthquake in India, and bad no special reason to expect one, it was quite certain, from all pre- cadents, that we would sooner or later hear ofa serious earthquake somewhere. Seismic disturbance always occur at nearly the same time at widely different points of the earth. We of the United States are apparently least subject to them. When, therefore, 40 earthquake occurs here W° may be quite sure of hearing in the next few days of a far more gsrious one in some of the great seismic centres of the world--the Grecian archipelago, South America, India, oF Maiaysia. While, therefore, no one could predict jast where the bad news would come from, scientists have tor the past few weeks been expecting to bear ol gerious earthquakes somewhere. This will go on record a8 aD exrthquake year—not that there has been so far any serious loss of lifefrom these aisturbancer, but they have been exceptionally frequent aud widely distributed. They have been severe, too, but,, fortunately, free from lass of life more by accident, it would seem’ than from any special cause, for there is no way of providing against loss and damage of these convulsions of tne earth. So far in the last few weeks they haye occurred in Canada, Mexico, Italy, Japan, in the central part of the United States, | and, last ot all, in India, and it 1s believed, generally throughout the East Indias. Our own earth- quake, extending along the live of the Alleghanies, with its cen- tral pointin Southwestern Vir- giuia, was a more serious one than any we have had since the shaking up and down at Charles- ton. There was a great deal of d smage done, but fortunately the worst shocks were in 4s wild, mountainous country, sparsely settled, where there were no laige towns to suffer damage. ‘News from Lodia is still meagre, and it may prove, when we get _ the retarns from the far away districts, tnat the disaster has @, and accompanied by some loge. life.

Nor 3s there any reason to believe that the seismic distur- bances are yet Over, for they generally wind up in »emo severe shock before the earth rearranges: itself. Against suca disturbances however, we are reasonably safe, for the United Srates seidom snffers more than a slight seismic shake, and New Orleans and the ‘country around scarcely feel it New Orleans Times-Democrat. een RET TEM Value of the Toad Frog—Dest:oys Great Numbers of Insects. ee aid Saturday morning a party of gentlemen were siliing around trying to keep cool, when the subject of toads came Up. Ore man said they were valuable to hava around, when anvther man laughed at him, contending that they are a pest, but the other declared tnat they devoured an army of things, which, left alone, were injurions to vogeiation. Only one or two men sided with hin. Running over some . current literature, however, we find this. Read it and see who was right: “It appears that Entomologist Kirkland, of the Massachusetts experiment station,has discovered that the toad 18 even more val- vable than the crow as a destroy- er of pests. Mr. Kirkland has given much atteation to toads, as much as the Agricuitaral Department bestowed on crows: Aad he. too, has published a book. ‘He states that 77 per cont. of the toad’s food is insects. He says he found 1n the stomach of a single toad fifty five army worms, is another sixty five gypsy moth caterpillars. He also instances an experiment where in three hours’ time a toad had consumed between. thirty and thirty. five full-grown celery worms. He estimates from what be has observed that in the mc nthe of May, June, and July a toad would devour 3,312 ants, 2,208 cut worms 1,840 myriapods, 2,208 sour bugs, 368 weevils, and 368 carabids. Of these 9,986 are injurious insects, and 368 are benaficial insects, the latter being the carabids. Oo the basis of gardeners figure ove single toad is credited with sav- ing approximately. $20 in that time.”—Greensboro Record, 'o Prevent Chicken Ubolera, er AR The manager of the poultry division of the Experiment Sta- tion gives in this month’s Agri- cultural Bulletin, the following recipe for preyenting chicken cholera, a disease that plays havoo with the average farm flock at this time of the year: “The first step to be taken is to clean out the hen houses thor- Oughly, whitewash every nook and corner, sprinkle lime all over the floor; put kerosene oil on the roost-pole. Burn ail nest mate- rial, swab out the inside of the aest boxes with kerosene oil, then whitewash them and put in new material of .hay, pine straw, or tobacco stems (the latter is best.) When this 18 done go over all the fowls’ at night with insect powder, and very soon the health of the flock will be improved.

In the darkness the girl accidentally s epped upon the house cat.which become enraged and seized the gril by the ankle, sinking ws teeth deep into the flesh. The girl’s screams aroused her mother, who ca ne to the rescue, aad attempted to pry the cat's mouth open su as fo release the girl from the animel’s teeth.

Saturday it was determined that Miss Simpsoe ought to be sent to the Pasteur institue, New York, for treatment, and a purse wus made up here to meet all expenses, ‘he girl has started for New York city, and her case will re- ceive the most thorough treat- ment. .

A CELLAR FIRE. § New Yorh Fireman's Graphic Account of a Thrilling Experience, There is an article on ‘‘The Risks of a Fireman’s Life’ by Charles T. Hill in St. Nicholas.” Mr. Bill says: While speaking of cellar fires, let me relate an incident that h: pened to some companies in the down town district at a fire of this de- scription. It occurred in Barclay street, in the subcellar of a crock- ery and glass warehouse, amid the gtraw used to pack the glassware. It sent forth a dense, stifling emoke I will relate it in the rather charac- teristic way in which it was told me by a fireman in one of the com- panies that were summoned to sub- dueit. The story gives an idea of what the firemen in the business part of a big city may have to face at any time. “The station came in one night at! 11:30. We rolled, and found the fire | in Barclay street Mm a crockery warehouse. Burning straw, jute exceisior and all that sort of stuff in the subcellar. “moke: I never saw such smoke since I’ve been an the’business. We went through tthe building and found the fire hadn't got above the cellar. We tried to get the line dow the cellar stairs, ‘but it was no use; no one could live or that stairway for a minute. The chief then divided us up, senteout a second (a second alarm), and wo sailed in to:drown it out; -27 en- ‘gine got: the rear; 7 engine the stair- “way, to keep it from coming up, -and our company, 29, got the front. We pried open the iron cellar doors con the pavement, only to find that the elevator «ised to carry freight to the bottom had been 2a up to the top.
