The distinct compounds from coal
tor have Increased from 454 In 1804
to 095, not less thnn three hundred of
the present products being dyes.
Tho sound-deadening arrangements
tried on tho Uetlln elevnted railway
Include felt under mid nt the sides of
the rulls, wood-filled ear wheels, steel
and wood ties resting on sand and
cork-lined floor planks. Low rails on
deep wooden stringers proved the most
effective.
A new camera of great importance,
photographing for the llrst time the
Interior or back of the eye, Is the pro
ductlon of Dr. Wnltlicr Thorner, of
llerlln. A tclcscope-IIke focusing glass
gives accurate focus under tho mild
Illumination of n kerosene lamp, and
n flashlight Ignited by an electric
spnik Impresses the Image upon tho
plate. Tho pictures show tho varia
tions of the eye In health anil disease,
making It possible now to follow tho
progress of disease step by step.
With tho Bpeclal purpose of secur
ing more accurate rccoids nt automo
bile races than can he obtained with a
stop-watch, tho Mors Company In
Paris has constructed an electric ap
paratus, which Is said to glvo excel
lent results. Two sninll boxes, elec
trically connected by wire, are placed
one at the starting and the other at
the finishing point. At tho start the
wheels of the racers touching n wlro
stretched across the track coubo a nee
dle to form a dot on a band of paper
driven at uniform speed by a chrono
meter. At the flnlsh tho wheels, In
n similar manner, causo another dot
to be tnndo on the same paper. By
measuring the distance between the
dots the time elapsed Is ascertained.
About a dozen years ago, M. Hlchtcr
showed that tho mysterious Arcs In
benzine-cleaning establishments nro
duo to electricity, which produces
spnrks as pieces ot wool aro drawn
from the combustible fluid on .cool or
dry dnys, and ho found that the spnrks
could bo prevented by adding magne
sium oleate even as little as 0.02 per
cent to tho benzine. The reason of
this remarkable effect of the oleate has
not been understood. It has now been
Investigated by G. Just at Karlsruhe,
and he flnds that the conductivity of
the bcnzlno Is very slightly Increased,
this change being sufllelcut to prevent
tho accumulation of dangerous electric
charges. In pure benzine an electrode
kept Its charge for minutes, whllo In
the diluted oleate solution it refused
to tako any charge.
An Interesting instance of the man
ner In which Insects sometimes assist
the growth of plants without any In
tention to do so, and whllo attending
strictly to tholr own business, is fur
nished by the history of a climbing
plant which grows In the Philippines,
and which has recently been described
by Professor J. W. Harshborger of
the University of Pennsylvania. At
an early stage In Its career the plant,
which, like other plants, begins to
grow at tho ground, severs Its connec
tion with the soil, and thenceforward
lives with Its roots attached to dead
bamboo enncs. It develops, in addi
tion to other leaves, certain pitcher
shnped leaves, Into the cups of which
It sends n second set of roots. A spe
cies of stnnll black ant frequents the
pitchers, nnd Incidentally carries Into
them minute fragments of decaying
wood and leaf mold, from which tho
roots Just mentioned derive a constant
supply of food for tho support of the
plant.

WreatlliiK nnd "Heavy Athletic." Are
Moat In Kuvor There.
Vrestllng Is one of tho most popu
lnr forms of athletic exercises In tier
many, nnd it seeniB ns if tho heavy
nnd muscular build of tho Germans
peculiarly adapts them for this kind
of sport. Tho general public Inter
prets tho word "athlete" ns meaning
a wrestler, weight lifter or "sttong
man." When tho English stylo of nth
letlcs wns Introduced Into Germany it
wns termed "light nthlotlcsj" wrestling
Is termed ns "heavy athletics," In
every town thero are many clubs In
dulging In "heavy athletics," and nu
merous public contests nro arranged,
In connection with which chnllcnges to
"all coiners" are Issued. Here 0110 can
often witness n pitched battle betwoan
sclenco nnd hruto power see an "nil
comer" of stupendous build, probably
n butcher, brewer or furniture remov
er, laid flat on both shoulder blades In
tho most approved stylo by n llttlo
wiry fellow as slippery as an eel. On
the ocenslou of the world's champion
ships held In Iierlln, un open aruim,
roofed only In the center, whero the
wrestling took place, wus erected, with
tiers of seats for tho public nil round
As luck would have It, tho weather
proved boisterous nnd the public shy
of tho fnir; tho championships ended
dismally, und tho Impresario, unable
to pay tho men's retainers, very tils-
crcetly decided to "leavo town." O. II.

Russell Sago was talklug the other
day about a dishonest but plauslblo
broker.
f "I have caught this man," ho said,
"In a dozen shady transactions, though
he has been ready to excuse himself."
Mr. Sage smiled. Then he resumed:
"lie reminds me of a chap who
broke a plate glass window one day.
As soon as ho had broken tbo window
he hurried off as fast as be could go.
Dut the shopkeeper bad seen him. The
shopkeeper came after him aud
grabbed him by the collar.
" 'Aha, you broke my window, didn't
you, eh?" be said.
"Yes, and didn't you see me run
ning home for the mouey to pay for
It?' said the other."
