l'«ladf«r In Sweden*
The nnmlMr of reindeer owned by n
Laplander in Sweden varies to a con- i
liderable degree. The poor may have
from 50 to 200 reindeer, those better
aff from 300 to 70o. and the rich Lap
landers will keep l.ooonnd even >,000
reindeer. There is some difficulty in
•olleding statistics of the number « f
eindeer. as the Laplanders will home-
times be unwilling c r unable to jfive
any correct statement. According to
the latest statistics the number of rein-
leer in Sweden would amount to
.'20. of which f J,r>f;0 were in the prov-
ince of Jemlund, 40,TOO in the province
t f VeMerbottom and UOU.170 in the
province of Norbottoui.

THE CORONA OF THE 8UN
II, Origin May lie Hue In *om« Elec-
tric Manifestation.
One of the greatest mysteries oi
science Is the magnificent display of
coronal streamers and soft banners of
light that is seen around the totally
#clipsed sun. .Several recent investiga-
tions tend to show that this wondorful
phenomenon is of electric or magnetic
origin. M. !. l upin, of Columbia
college has just furnished most sug-
gestivo facts bearing on the question
through a series of experiments on
electric discharges in imperfect vacua, blamed if every man in the congrega-
lives at Newburg.
The bell is nearly as tall as u man,
and it weighs about 1,000 pounds. Its
greatestdiamet r is much less than
modern bells of 11'lit weight. Wall
Sing, a Chinese philosopher, says, that
the bell goes baclc to the time of Con-
fucius, but other people who know
things say it is about ::00 years old.
The bell has no tongue, but is beaten
with a club. It is open at the top -
that is to say. there is a hole big
enough to insert one's hand. The bell
loup upon which it swings is in the
shape oi a dragon. It is beautifully
carved and there are many Chinese
characters upon it.
