SCIENTIFIC POINTERS. CURRENT NOTES OF DISCOV ER/ AND INVENTION. Invention for the Protection of Llf* mi Hen An Automatic Whistle for Use on Hlcjrcloa—Transplanting Plants Water. Transplanting Plants. PATENTED devic® for Insprlog health of transplanted ed plants Is one of the novelties of the season. It consists of a glass funnel with automatic opening and clos ing device at the small end. The fun nel Is turned over plant, and It Is claimed practically -Mounts It against the Ills Incident to It from one place to an hts Is all very well, hut an experienced florist who does not be lieve in following old methods fjulle closely has thought out something much lielter than this, which has been tested by so many experiments that 1h excellence Is vouched for. It is the custom to make plants ex wpt before they are lifted from of thtdr original growth. In of this the reverse Is the method The plants are permitted to become as dry as possible before moving They are carefully freed from the soil that might cling to the t'-nder rootlets and break them off Then the plant Is put Into Its new location, thoroughly watered, shaded for a few hours or a 'ay or two If con venient, and goes on Its way growing vigorously. The dryer the plants the better the results, and If they have I” <m kept dry for a number of duya, so much the better. SU-rlll/Ing Muter. ■f The sterilization of water lias b<* K come a most Important Item In do ll nifslic economy. Scientists long ago ■ found out that ordinary processes of ■ filtration are not only unsatisfactory B^ but absolutely a waste of time and Br* strength.

A German chemist has ■ been conducting a series of experl B went* with results which promise al B most certain freedom from fhe dan > k>TH attend the use of ordinary We water. A solution of bromine and B bromide of potassium Is put Into the water, then the bromine Is removed |? by a weak solution of ammonia. So B satisfactory and comprehensive have I ti.< ,-c experiments been that there Is B * every reason to hope that some slm I pie and harmless compound may be Ht put before the public which will, when ^B added to water of doubtful quality, ren Pf" der It perfectly harmless aa far us | ’ ihetit germs are concerned. It Is, bow f ever, necessary to add that such prep t nialiens should never he employed un lers they bear the stamp of the hlgh L >"■’ authority. Such compounds should f be indorsed by hoards of health and f t’< thing should he relied upon for this B ^purpose without such Indorsement. Aoloiustlc Bicycle niiUtlr. I, Now thut the people ure demanding ) that the dangers attending bicycling op the streets he minimized, a Ht. Louis man has Invented an alarm signal to be attaehed to the wheel. It Is a whistle that In u modified way will give Its alarm signals just as effect! ve ly as the whistle of the steamboat or the locomotive. Instead of steam, the power which make the alarm talk out ' I'm warnings Is just plain wind gen erated by the bicycle as It moves. The I Inventor, Charles O. Soblnski, gave a demonptratfon of the working of the IdCjCle whistle. As lie swept along the ti ne of the alarm range.] from a gentle buzz, to a blast that could be heard a block. The alarm is of nickel, weighs leas than a pound, and Is simple in ■oiif.tructlon. It is attached to the f of the Inutile (Mutt by two tatawa.

If one of Ita branches is touched with the naked hand, a distinct shock Is felt similar to that produced by a battery. Ita In fluence upon a magnetic needle is no ticeable at a distance of hall a riox«*n yards, and as one gets nearer the plant this influence increases, while. If the instrument Is placed in the center of the bush. It will assume a steady cir cular movement. The Intensity of the phenomenon seems to depend entirely upon the time of day. The maximum of the electrleal Influence occurs about two o'clock In the afternoon, while during the night It ceases altogether. In stormy weather Its remarkable properties are considerably Increased. The plant has been named the phytol acen. fight tor a Tree's l.l»e. The oldest tree in the great botani cal garden, the Jardln des Plantes, at Parts, is an acacia, planted 230 years ago. This tree Is described by l.n Na ture as being covered with “wrinkles of old age,” and supported oil “crutches.” It has, with difficulty, withstood recent tempests. Its wounds have been covered with plasters, and Its failing trunk and hranrhea bound and stiffened with rods and braces. A determined effort Is being made to save Its life, and much gratification Is ex pressed because It has. this season, once more put forth leaves. But the managers of the garden have posted n bulletin announcing that another tem pest will be likely to end the old tree'r career, To I'rutMt l.lfe at Sea. An Kngllsh Inventor has perfected a contrivance that should lesseu the perils of the sea. It Is a door for use In watertight compartments, and the plan of It Is so very simple that the wonder Is that tt was not earlier dr* vised. The door Is double and slides around a circular frame set In the partition. Opening one side of It me essarlly close* the other. Therefore the door ‘s always closed. It 1* easy to pass through In the manner shown In the Illustration. This Invention, If Introduced widely, will do away with a great source of danger carelessness In leaving door* open h?tween watertight compartments. Iliouoiulra of the Yukon Flints. The story of California and Aus tralia Is being repeated today; death by hunger, cold and thirst Is being again encountered in me desert regions west of the 100th meridian by the rush of gold miners hustling and scrambling to the Yukon valley of Alaska, where 70 degrees below zero Is accounted a mild winter. From the published ac counts It would stem that the gold fields of Alaska hold out greater In ducements than <he gold-quartz reefs of the Transvaal, that In the Yukon Y'alley the lateral streams run over beds of golddust and nuggets, and that the precious metal may be gathered by the simplest process, and without us ing quartz-mills to stamp the gold out of rocks. Whether thousands of min ers, now at work or on their way to this new Kldorado ti.liOO ini leg 'rom .Seattle and civilization—starve or ficeze to death this winter Is a ques tion yet to he solved. Hut. however this question Is solved, their suffer ings and death will not perceptibly cheek the rush of gold-hunters so long as It Is believed that there are untold millions of gold In the streams of Alaska waiting for claimants.
