THE-MOSQUITO-MALARIA THEORY,
The following reference to the recently revived theory 'us tà malaria being due to a certain variety "of mosquita" is" from the Literary Digest yo
The specialists who believe that the mosquito takes an active, if not a principal, part in the propagation of malaria are now urging that efforts be made to extirpate the disease in notoriously malarial districts by preventing the breeding of the objectionable insects therein. To the argument that malaria 'does not exist in some particularly mosquito- cursed districts, they reply that only certain species of the insect harbor the germs. In a recent lecture at University College, Liverpool," printed in The British Medical Journal | (July 1st), Major Donald Ross, a surgeon in the British army and a great authority, on the sub- ject, asserts his belief that the well known fact that malaria is lessened by proper drainage | simply means that such drainage removes breeding-places for mosquitos. He says:
"We can detect the dangerous species of mosquitos in a given locality by a perfecily Certain method, namely, by ascertaining, whether the parasistes of malaria will live in them or not. We can detect breeding grounds by searching for their larvæ. : If the dangerous mosquitos prove to be confined to the genus Anopheles, the problem will be much simplified,
and it will be advisable to declar war against the whole genus. The larva of this genus can be distinguished by any intelligent European by the fact that they float flat on the surface of the water, and the adults can be generally distinguished by their having spotted wings. In order to obliterate pools which breed dangerous mosquitos, they must be filled up or drained away, As I have sahl mosquitos scarcely ever breed in large bodies of water, because these contain ash. To kill large in wells, some appropriate drug must be sought for, but I think it unlikely that malaria-bearing insects often inhabit wells. "to conclude, then? It will be observed that the practicability of eradicating malaria in a locality by the extermination of the dangerous mosquitos in it depends on a single question-do these mosquitos breed in spots sufficiently isolated and rare to be dealt with by public measure of repression? I ani afraid that it is impossible to give a final answer to this question as yet."
ELECTRIC TRAMWAYS.
Carnatic writes to Indian Engineering as follows :-- No one who has seen the working of Electric Tramways, but must feel how great is their superiority over the old horse power trac tion. In Madras the Electric Tramway system has secured an assured footing, and has evid ently coine to stay, The service is perfect. The turn of a handle starts the car in motion, and the load of 30 or 40 persons does not make the slightest difference. The speed is regulated to a nicely, and the motion of the cat, when the road is straight and the line clean, is very pleasant. The car stops, or is slowed down, without any jarring, while the starting is done most gently. The first outlay is heavy, the line having to be laid with wooden block adjustments on each side of the rails, and kunker ballast welltamped between; while cross-over roads have to be metalled, very carefully. But after the first outlay the busi ness pays immensely, even when the over-head semaphore arms and wiring are included. The natives

SPURIOUS GOLD BARS.
It has been known for some time past, says Capital, that there was an illicit trade in gold bars going on between, Calcutta and Burmah and we are glad to notice that one of the gang concerned in the trade has been arrested." As the case is still sub- judice we cannot yet com ment upan it, but we may describe the system of fraud adopted, which is as follows: -Certain per sons have been in the practice of buying English gold bars imported by the Banks. These bars weigh toounces each,a ndure beautifully mould- ed and polished; they contain less than 1.002 of alloy, and are certified by stamps impressing the name of the imparting Bank in English and native character and some other marks. The persons alluded to have been in the habit of melting down these bars and remoulding them with added alloy, and re-stamping them in imitation of the original bars. The repro duced bars would, probably, not deceive any local dealers, but the gentle Burman, who has a great partiality for the yellow metal, appears to have entered the trap most con- viniently, and has accepted these bars on the fice valtic to a large extent. The profit to the false coiners is said to have amounted to about 8 annas per tola, or rather more than two per cent, and their operations have naturally inter fered to a considerate extent with legitimate trade.

THE END OF THE WORLD.
A correspondent writes to the Statesman :- An absurd idea has possessed the chetties or money lenders of Rangoon, By some means they derived the information that the world will come to an end some time in December, and they have stopped speculating, and are collecting their outstandings, Their action will affect the middlemen and small traders, against who, possibly, the device is directed.

A LECTURE ON SNAKES.
The first of the series of lectures organised by the Wilson College Literary Society was delivered, recently, at the College Hall, Chow- patty, by Mr. E. H.: Aitken, on "Snake," the Rev. Dr. Mackichan presiding. Sir Lawrence Jenkins, the Chief Justice, and Lady Jenkins were among the audience, which was a large and representative one.
The lecturer commenced his lecture by describing the organism of the reptile in con- tradistinction to other lower forms of life; its anatomical structure and its manner of life; and illustrated the different points of his discourse by amusing stories. Statements regarding the length of snakes varied. Some put it at 75 feet, whilst others as 200 feet. How they grew was a which had never been settled, But to his knowledge they did grow up to 20 feet. His theory was that they grew, on all their life, and be humorously added that if they would they could grow enough to ancircle the world. They fed on living „creaturès, monkeys and jackals being known as sometimes falling victims to their rapacity, Instances of cattle having been crushed to death and afterwards devoured by pythone had come to light, and the killing of rats, bandicoote, frogs and birds was of common occurrence. Popular superstition invested them with the power of fascination, which, the lecturer ex- plained really consisted in their cunning device of feigning upon their unsuspecting pray
came near them. In the whole of India there were on record 154 species of snakes, of which 38 were of the venomous kind. Of the latter only four species were to be found in the Bombay Presidency. The lecturer then dwelt upon the popular remedies resorted to in this country for the cure of snake-bites, and remarked "that two points, which required to be evor kapt
