Alexander Agassiz, and Jelin Murray have recently held to the electrine tut the greater part of our atells at leiteteno not thee formed, and, that the central cup of the atoll is not due to the fact that it 'occupies the position of a subsid- ing mountain, but that it is brought ,about by a processof solution by which ,the creed rocks are dissolved away, Dr. H. B. Guppy, a competent ob- server, has, during a recent sojourn on the Keeling atoll in the 'radiate Ocean, bern enabled to eonfirm the opinions of Messrs. Murray and Agassiz.

The waiter does so, and what is set before the patron is sorne- thing he did not think of, and heoats with relish. Other customers Collie in, and, like the first, they do .nee, know salad they want.

Willie there were, of course, some evidences of the universal "bad tirnes," there were many signs of undoubted prosperity. Its eonnectien, through Cove er Queenstown, nine mike distant, with America, accounts largely, I think, for the latter. In the streets we noticed ninny shops devoted exclusively to the sale of American products, meths fruit, tobacco, agricultural implements, sewing machines, etc. In the very gait'of the people we fan- cied we could see an American freedom, and energy'. And the contrast of this ,modern dash and life with the gray re- minders—centuries old many of them— of bygone times that meet one every- where is very impressive to the street - ger. Exceptionally fascinating was it all to us, seeing it in the lingering pale twilight of the day that had the north in a sky of tenderest blue and the south ih its balmy zephyrs.

Pullman Superintendent Ellwood, of this city, Superintendent Toni Urquhart, of the Los Angeles division of the South- ern Pacific, and Superintendent Beal, of the .Atlantic and Pacific. met in M. Ur- quhart's office at Mojave one day, and agreed to go hunting upon the Kern county desert for coyotes. They armed themselves with rifles, secured a carriage and driver, andotarted out early in the morning across a cactus covered plain. Very soon through the yuecas, they sawstanding pensively a lone coyote. He was reflecting upon itis sins, perhaps, or upon his hunger. "Let me shoot! Let me shoot!" said Mr. Beal, excitedly, raising his gun, and Toni Urquhart gratefully yielded to his guest. Mr. ileal shot and missed the coyote by at least forty feet. The coyote was a sensible animal, for he knew that the closer to the guns he got the safer he was. Ile did not seek to escape through the yuccas—he started directly for the wagon. Mr. Urquhart is a brave raan, but that coyote looked hungry, and be turned pale. Though he trembled, yet he leaped into the breacti to save his friends. Raising his gun, he took delib- erate 2.1331, fired—and struck a yucca one hundred yards to the right of the line of advance. 'The coyote still came on. It was a thrilling moment. The driver turned his horses and galloped off, the coyote in pursuit. The animal passed under the wagon in a 2:08 gait and die- ; appeared.
