Railroads Are Aoeedlng to Demand! of Middle Classes Who Want Better .. Sleeping-Car Service. In response to the demand, of the times, the O. R. & N. and its connec tions are placing in operation a much better grade of tourist sleepers for Pa cific coast service than at any previous time. The largely increased trafflo to this section of the country has de manded all the improvements of latter day transportation, and in considera tion of tins the railroads are establish ing a service which is excellent in avarv TmrHfinln.r Not railT axe the W.W.J I . wishes of. the first-class passengers served, but those who are traveling to and from the East on second-class tick ets are splendidly cared for. There are was a time when a touriBt sleeper ap pealed to a limited number of people who were traveling on the "cheap" or der, in every meaning of the term. Now, however, there has been a radical change. With the better tourist sleep ers in operation the olass of passengers has been improved, and one may now travel upon them and enjoy all the privileges of a first-olass sleeper at a greatly reduced rate. Daily, on the O. R. Ss N. Eastbound fast mail, is attached one of these latest improved tourist sleepers, a model of beauty and handsome appointments. The new oars are almost an exact counterpart of the first-class sleepers. " One noticeable feature of the new i i i . ! .1 . . . . i ing apartment. The new . cars being built by the Pullman Company are not .porvided with smoking . apartments. iThis new departure has been taken be 'cause of the faot that most through trains are provided with composite oars, which provide a smoker ior the sleeping-oar passengers.

It la Only One-half Mile in Length, but It Has a Monopoly of a Good Buslneja and Earns a Great Deal of Money, The death of Mr. VanderbHt brought back to my memory recollections of Austin Corbtn. My attention was re cently called to the least known enter prise which the late Mr. Corbtn found ed, and which, according to one source, is the richest railroad In the world. The road is with In half an hour's ride from New York and Is known as the Marine Kailroad. The entire distance covered by this road is barely a quarter of a mile, and the fare Is the uniform and small rate of 5 cents. The road serves to " connect the two summer resorts Manhattan Beach and Brighton Beach. The trip over the road occupies only a rninuts with the comparatively slow locomotive, two of which, with two cars, make up the entire rolling stock of this wealthy road. ' The road has been an absolute monopoly of traffic, though, between the two beaches, which are connected" by a narrow strip of land. This strip Mr. Corbln, wise man that he was, built his road on and issued orders that any one who wanted to walk alongside the roadbed was tak ing chances of arrest for trespass, and this season a number of special officers headed off all would-be promenaders who wanted to save the fare of 5 cents. On one side of this strip Is the ocean, on the other swamps and marshes. To circle around these swamps In order to reach the opposite beach would require a walk of at least three miles, hence' the profit accruing from the . Marine Kailroad. The road operates only three months a year, but during these three months It carries on an average 50,000 or 60,000 passengers a week. Last PourtJh -of July the two engines and two coaches carried 28,000 persons at 5 cents, and no half f ares for "children either. The staff Is In keeping with the extent of rolling stock. It consists of two engineers, two firemen, two con ductors, two ticket sellers and two gate men. The superintendent of Manhattan Beach is at the same time general man ager of the Marine Railroad, its gener al passenger agent and freight agent all in one person. It Is said that the operating ' expenses for the three months of the season do not ' exceed $3,000. In 1891 the road Is said to have cleared $57,000 above all expenses. Its capital Is $20,000, and, according to one of Its stockholders, It has cleared up wards of $1,000,000 for the sharehold ers during Its existence, a dividend of 250 per cent per annum. The hundred dollar shares are therefore worth In the neighborhood of $5,000, a higher prem ium than that commanded by Chemi can Bank stock, which Is usually con sidered to be t!he most remarkable In vestment In that respect. That the stockholders are numerically almost as small as the staff of the road can be easily Imagined, and that none of the stock Is for sale Is also self-understood. In one respect the miniature railway resembles the miniature states of .An dorra and San Marino. One never hears anything ; about either. Philadelphia Telegraph. , r". CLIMATE SHOWS FEW CHANGES. Weather Conditions Now About the Same aa in Ages Past. This subject Is of extreme Interest and merits a most thorough study. We find the "early" and the "latter" rain to-day in Palestine precisely as de scribed 3,500 years ago. "Jordan over flows all Its banks" in February to-day exactly as It did In Joshua's time, thirty-three centuries - ago. ' Plants taken from mummy cases In Egypt, which must have been gathered more than 5,000 years since, are practically of the same size and have the same ap pearance as those growing to-day. Rec ords of vintages in France over 700 years show practically the same dates as to day. Actual observations of rainfall for over 200 years In France show no change. Observations -of temperature for almost 200 years at St Petersburg show no change ' appreciable to ,-. us, though, of course, the earliest observa tions were extremely crude and some what unreliable. Facts of this kind might be adduced to fill a small vol ume. On the other hand, we have rec ords of ... most , extraordinary cold weather in ancient times. One winter the light wine in France froze. - An other winter the River Po froze over so as to bear teams, an unheard-of phenomenon to-day. In this journal recently It is stated that "Parnassus and Socrate, now free from snow, were covered with it in classic antiquity." Also "the name of Greenland, which Strikes us as so singularly Inappropri ate, was not inapplicable at the time it was named, in the fourteenth century." It is entirely probable that descrip tions of the cold in ancient times were much exaggerated. Parnassus and Socrate have snow at times, and, in earlier days, when protection against the Cold and snow was much less than now, a little snow would go a long way. The earlier voyagers from 'Iceland, more than 1,000 years' ago, leaving a land of almost perpetual ice and snow, and reaching a land in the summer with Its beautiful green color to their unaccustomed eyes, would very nat urally give the name of Greenland to It At the summer time, it is said that Greenland presents a most beautiful green near the Danish settlements to this day. Our oldest Inhabitants, who have been wont to describe the terri ble cold and"deep snows of their boy hood days as IncomparaSly greater than anything which does or can occur to-day, have completely lost their reck oning the last winter when reading of a ship that had sunk in New York har bor by weight of the ice upon It; also, that Washington had had thirty-four Inches of snow on a level and the low est temperature ever noted In that fair city. I am. sure a careful study will show no appreciable change In the cli mate of this earth since the early his toric times. - Of course, nothing here adduced touches climatic changes in glacial times or in prehistoric times, which changes have been established beyond question. Popular Science. . . Cartons Ways of Marking Timp. The islanders of the South Pacific have no clockst but make a curious time-marker of their own. They take the kernels from the nuts of the candle tree and wash and string them on the rib of a palm leaf. The first or top ker nel Is then lighted. All the kernels are of the same size and substance, and each will burn a certain number of minutes and then set fire to the next one below. The natives tie pieces of bark cloth at regular intervals along the string, to mark; the divisions of time. Among the natives of Slogan, in the Malay Archipelago another pe culiar device Is used. Two bottles are placed neck and neck, and sand Is put In one of them which pours itself into the other one every half-hour, when the bottles are reversed. There is a line near on which are hung twelve rods, marked with notches from one to twelve. A regular appointed keeper attends to the bottles and rods, and sounds the hour upon a gong. '"" Characteristic of Funston. The Ohio State Journal, after inter viewing a member . of the engineer corps, concludes that Gen. Fred Fun ston, the- Kansas boy, can be original even while In a semi-comatose state It was before the battle of Caioocan. He had had no sleep for two days and was In bad shape. He therefore rolled himself up in some leaves and went to sleep. Meantime, the division received orders to advance, but Funston could not be found. Many scouts had been killed, and It was feared that the Colo nel's curiosity for he was a Colonel then had led him Into trouble. Pres ently, however, a glimpse was caught of his red hair In the tangle, and later they found him shrouded In leaves. As this Is the way bodies are prepared for burial in that part of the world, they got more and more apprehensive with each step, until, at length, some one shouted: "Colonel, are you dead or alive?' '""Neither," grunted the Colo nel, as he rolled over for another nap; "I'm sleeping." It Is an unexplained fact that glow worms are much more brilliant just before an approaching storm than, at any other time. . The most active volcano In the world Is Mt Sangay, 17,100 feet situated on the eastern chain of the Andes, South America. It has been In constant erup tion since 1728. - The atmospheric ocean surrounding the earth Is frequently disturbed by gigantic waves, which are Invisible ex cept when they carry parts of the air, charged with moisture, up into a cold er atmospheric stratum where sudden condensation occurs. In this manner long, parallel lines of clouds sometimes make their appearance at a great height' marking the crests of a ripple of air waves, running miles above our heads.;'!;;;,:' ' . ;-.: , '"v Prof. 'Alexander' Agasslz, with a corps of men of science, and under the auspices of the United States Fish Commission,' set sail from San Fran cisco about the middle of August In the steamship Albatross, on one of the most Important scientific expeditions of recent times. ; An immense area of the Pacific Ocean, including the Paumota, the Friendly, the Elllce, the Gilbert and the Marshall Islands, and many unnamed groups of coral Islets, will be thoroughly explored for the first time. The voyage will cover about 20,000 miles, and the explorations will include the life and phenomena of the sea from its surface to its greatest attainable depths, f .-: V It has often been suggested that the brilliance of the sup's disk Is due to in candescent particles - of carbon, and within a few years past the presence of carbon In the sun has been demon strated by the spectroscope. Lately Prof. 'Hale, the director of the Yerkes Observatory, has shown that there Is a thin layer of carbon in' the lower part of the sun's atmosphere. It surrounds the solar globe like a luminous shell, and. under normal conditions Is proba bly not more than five hundred miles above, the sun's surface. But when an eruption takes place from beneath the carbon layer, like all the other .con stituents of the solar atmosphere, is broken up and locally dispersed by the tremendous agitation. 4 The work of keeping the mouth of the world's greatest commercial river, the Thames, open and free for ships of all classes Is not lacking In difficulty. The shifting sands continually en croach upon the channels of the great estuary, and the latest surveys show that the.Duke or. Edinburgh Channel, which is at present the principal pas sage Into the Thames for heavy ves sels, has narrowed since 1882 from a mile and a half to about half a mile. "Its total obliteration, which seems by no means Impossible," says Nature, "would entail a long circuit at the time of low water." The "Middle Swim," the main route for traffic between Lon don and the north, has also contracted and shoaled much within late years. Occasionally small diamonds have been found among the ridges of gravel brought down from the north in the age' of the glaciers and scattered over the States bordering on the Great Lakes. Prof. Hobbs, of the Univer sity of Wisconsin, thinks that these diamonds came from some place In Canada, and that by tracing back the line of advance of the glaciers the orig inal location of the gems may be dis covered. . An effort to carry out Prof. Hobbs' suggestion Is to be made, and Prof. H. L. FalrchiM, of the University of Rochester; Prof. I. C. Russell, of the University of Michigan; Prof. J. P. ladings, of the University of Chicago, and Prof. O. O. Farxlngton, of the Field Columbian Museum, will co-operate by examining, without charge, suspected gems found by persons living near the glacial moraines. .
