FORMATION OF COAL.
Dr. Greene's Theory l'mrati Horn
Hitherto Unknown Phenomena.
The formation of coal, according to
Dr. Homer Greene's cosmtcal theory,
iraa due to the solar orb bringing forth,
millions of yean ago, when It waa
larger and hotter than to-day, a won
derfully luxuriant vegetation, Includ
ing plants of Strang kinds, mosses as
large as forest treet, and ferns thirty
teet In height, growing up richly from
the clayey soli and forming dense Jun
gles In the vast marshes, the latter
covering great acrea of the earth's sur
face; these ferns, mosses and the leaves,
branches, and trunks of trees In time
falling and decaying where they grew,
only to render the soil more fertile and
the next growth more luxuriant year
after year, century after century, this
process of growth and decay going on,
until the beds of vegetable matter thus
deposited became of great thickness:
the earth's body, however, still contin
ued to shrink, in consequence of which
.bar crust sinking throughout vast
'""areas, the bt1a of vegetable matter go
Idg down and the water sweeping again
jer the great marshes, sand and mud
- ?aad gravel were laid down anew over
the deposits, and the clayey soil from
which the next rich growth would
Baring was spread out on the surface,
. this process being repeated again and
again, as often, indeed, as seams of coal
la any coal bed. In this way, accord
ing to Dr. Greene, the conditions for
the formation of coal were made com
plete, atmospheric air being entirely
excluded while the vegetable beds un
derwent the processes of decomposition
ao that In some beds of coal whole trees
have been found, with roots, branches,
leaves and seeds complete, and all con
verted into the same kind of coal as
that by which they were surrounded.
THIS STORY IS OF M'COOK.
It Tells How the Warrior Kicked Colo
row Dow unfair.
? Edward, one of "the Cghtlng Mc
Cooks," while governor of Colorado ter
ritory, had a good deal of trouble with
the Indians, and especially with their
chief, Colorow. With a party of hia
braves Colorow came to Denver one
Bight, and after drinking heavily told
bla followers that he was going up to
kill McCook. The governor had his of
fice in a two-story building, and sat
with his back to the door, with a
looking glass on the desk in front of
him so that he could see any one com
ing in without turning. McCook was
expecting some trouble with Colorow,
and was seated at his desk when the In
dian came In. Colorow had a pistol In
hia band, and, approaching McCook, he
stood by his side and grunted: "Mc
Cook, liar!" The governor never look
ed up, but kept on writing. "McCook
heap liar," repeated Colorow, but the
governor never noticed It. "McCook
heap big liar," continued Colorow, and
' still the pen scratched away. Colorow
mistook McCook's silence for fear and
let his pistol hand drop until his arm
hung straight down. In an Instant
McCook grasped the Indian's wrist, and
In another the pistol fell to the floor.
Turning Colorow around, the governor
deliberately thrust him downstairs and
ut of the door Into the circle of In
diana who were waiting for the expect
ed trouble. "Colorow's a squaw," said
McCook to the assembled Indians, and,
giving the chief a parting kick, he re
turned to hia office. San Francisco

Asbestos is a mineral fiber of the
hornblende variety. It de.lvos its
name from a Greek word which sig
nifies "indostructili'.o by fire." The
ancients wore familiar with its usos
and the modos of obtaining it, yet,
strange to say, always alluded to it
as a vegetab.o production. It was
uso.i in all thoir funoral ritos, but
particularly whore cremation was
practiced; tho corpse being wrapped
in an asbestos cloth so as to koop tho
ashes of the dead person frt m ming
ling with those of tho wood or other
combustibles used in incineration of
tho remains. The pooplo of Kgypt
and many other countries of tho an
cients, especially tho royal and
wealthy classes, made towels, nap
kins, table-cloths, etc.. of asbestos,
and cleanod them by throwing them

Oreaa filter.
A filter for removing grease, which
often passes Into the boilers with the
feed-water, consists of a metallic
chamber or filter-box, in which are a
secies of gratings, and between these
gratings are placed layers of wire
gauze and flannel of a special texture,
which forms the filtering medium.
The foed-wator from tho donkey
pump enters tho tiltor-box on one
side, passes upward through the
filter-cloths, and thence out to tho
boiler, the scum passing away
through another outlet By this
means it is found that all grease and
greasy matter, as well as other Im
purities, are arrested by tho filter
cloths, which can readily be taken
out for cleaning or renewal. The
filter is equally applicable to land
and marine boilers.
