Of course,' said Dr Peters, in conclad. ing, the development of Rhodosia would materially be accelerated if the British Government would take over the country. The administration of the Chartered Com- pany is very good as far as it goes, but as it is a shareholders' company it must squeeze all the expeuses of the administra- tion out of the settlers.'
HISTORY OF SOAP.
The history of soap is heavily shrouded in the mists of the past. Its origin is a fruitful thomb for speculation. It is men- tioned in the Old Testament, but what has there been translated soap is taken to mean merely ‘alkali,. The name is derived from the Celtic word gobon and from that it has been supposed that it is to the Celtic peoples we owe the article itself, This view Is somewhat strengthened by the fact that the onliest mention of shap is a reforence by Pliny to its existence. among the Gauls, who prepared it from goat's fat and the ashes of the beech tree, Among the ruins of Pompeii was found a soap factory, with a quan'ity of soap in a perfect state of preservation. According to one writer, the date of the introduction of soap into Britain was somewhere about
the fourteenth contury. Before that time

The P. & O. mails, the manufacture and use of goap there is little known (says a writer in Britain at usually reach London in about 28 days, and the French and German in about
28 or 30 days Work). As early as the ninth century, Marseilles, which had the advantage of being situated in convenient proximity to the raw materials used in the manufacture, did an extensive trade. The first patent for the improvement of the manufacture of soap in this country scous to have been obtained in 1622. In that year a company was granted a monopoly of the trade in Britain, paying for the privilege £20,000 per annum for 3,000 tons of soap, or nearly d. per lb. Trouble ensued. Some makers refused to join the combine,' order that and the King had to all soap must be examined by the company. In 1633 sixteen manufacturers were sentenced to heavy fines and impri- aonment by the Star Chamber for disobey- ing the King's command, two of the "poor men dying in prison. A few years later the monopoly was surrendered for the eum of £49,000. This soap-maker, how. ever, had not yet reached the end of his troubles, for in 1711 a tax of a ponny in the pound was levied on the commodity. In 1818 the duty on hard soap was as high as 3d. per lb. This was the summit of the imposition which was gradually reduced and abolished in 1853.

Cool Reception at Tokio.
A chill reception was accorded the bearer of the text of the Treaty of Peace when he arrived in Tokyo on October 4. Mr Yamaza landed from the Dakota at Yokohama, and was at once driven to the station, the -routs being lined by polico. At Yokohama he was mot by the Vice-Minister for For eign Affairs, and at Shimbashi a number of high officials wore awaiting him at the station, and also the British Minister and other foreign gentlemen. Mr Yamaza was immediately driven to the Foreign. Office, the route being lined by troops a few paces apart. No reception whatever was given the dispatch bearer by the public, nor was there the slightest show of hostility. The silence says the Japan Chronicle, was in great contrast to the ovation Mr Yamaza received when he departed for America two months ago.

In reply to the American Consul'a further communications respecting the boycott movement, the Viceroy is reported to have said that he could only exhort the people to stop and that he could not force them to do so. With regard to the three persons- Ma, Pun, and Ha--the Viceroy said that the magistrato already had his instructions to have the men brought up for trial but so far the result of the case had not been put before him. Ten days after his notifica tion to the people, he continued, the boy. cott movement subsided considerably, but as the movement was brought about through the cruel treatment of the Chinese in America, the matter rests more with the American Government than with the Chinese but nothing about the exclusion treaty was heard.

authorised reply was: face like that?' But on this particular night the answer came from the gallery: Just at present she ducs, old man, or she wouldn't have married you! Another class of people who work on their wedding day do so more from choice than from necessity. They object to lose a day's pay, and so absent themselves from work only just long enough to get married. Couples have left à Lancashire cotton mill, walked to church, been joined in matri- mony, gone straight back to the factory, and remained at work till the usual hour- 16.30.
Asterwards the wedding 'stir' bas taken place, and at six o'clock on the fol fqwing morning both bride and bridegroom have been at work. This practice is not as common as it used to be; but it has not yet died out io Lancashire.

For ascertaining the depth of the sea without the use of the sounding lead and similar devices, the Norwegian engineer Berggraf sends Bound waves perpendicular-
into the water, and measures the time they require to return to the surface after having been reflected from the bottom of the aca. The speed of the sound in water being known, the length of the space passed through is immediately determined;
