OUTSTRIPPING THE WIND.

can sail faster tlian the yi-ind: that is
to say, if the wind is blowing ten
knots an hour, a ship may be making
twelve or fifteen knots an hour. Now,
it is obvious that if the ship is sailing'
straight before the wind it cannot, at
the utmost, travel faster than the
wind itself is blowing as a matter of
fact, it will travel much more slowly.
If, on the other hand, the ship is sail
ins at an ancle with the wind, it
seems at first sight that the wind must
act with less effect than before, but as
a matter of fact the ship not only
sails more quickly than before, but
more quickly than the . wind it
self is blowing. Let us consider the
difficulty in the light of the following
experiment: Place a ball at one side
of the billiard table, and with the cue,
not held in the ordinary manner, but
lengthwise from end ' to end of the ta
ble, shove the ball across the cloth.
The cue here represents the wind, and
the ball the ship sailing directly before
it; the ball of course travels at the
same rate as the cue. Now, suppose a
groove in which the ball may roll be
cut diagonally across the table from
one corner pocket to the other. If the
ball be now placad at. one end of the
groove and the cue held horizontally,
parallel witli the long sides and moved
f orward across the width of the table
as before, the ball will travel along
the groove (and along the cue) diag
onally across the table in the same
time as the cue takes to move across
the width of the table. This is the
case of the ship sailing at an angle
with the direction of the wind. The
groove is considerably longer than the
width of the table, more than double
as long, in fact. The ball, therefore,
travels much faster than the cue which
impels it, since it covers more than
double the distance in the same time.
It is in preci -ely the same manner
that a tacking ship is enabled to sail
.faster than the wind.

THE GREYHOUND.
Doffi Caed for the Chase by English
Sovereigns and Nobles.
Greyhounds have existed in very
much, the same form as we find them
to-day for. more than three thousand
years, as we find them pictured on
Egyptian monuments of that remote
period. The name probably came from
their general color in England when
King Canute decreed that none but
princes and nobles should keep them.
The color now, in either smooth or
rough coated greyhounds, is very-sel-
dom grey, but more often fawn, red,
brindled (either red and black mixed
or fawn and blue), or black. '
The smooth coated dog is known as
the English greyhound, and the rough
Coated as the Scotch deerhound. In
conformation they are very much
the same. They are the fastest run
ners ol any ol tne canine race, un
level ground they can go as fast as a
race horse,, and over hilly ground they
can unquestionably beat even the fleet-
footed -thoroughbred. Formerly the
English dog was used in chasing the
red and fallow deer, and it is related
that on one occasion Queen Elizabeth
witnessed the pulling down of sixteen
bucks. The dogs of that day must haTC
been stronger th'an those now found in
England. When the master of the
royal buckhounds now has a meet in the
royal forests of England it is a sorry
sight, for the deer are themselves more
than half domesticated, and do not
know how to get away.
The greyhound is used, however, in
coursing hares, and it is one of the na
tional sports of Great Britain. In
Texas and some other parts of America
where jack rabbits abound grey
hounds are kept to chase them. The
English greyhound ' is a beautiful,
graceful and aristocratic looking dog
but the Scotch deerhound is more dig
nified in appearance. These dogs ar
trained to hunt game by the eye alone.
They have good noses, however, and if
permitted to do so wiil also hunt by
scent.
THE VANISHING MOOSE.
Departure of New York's Uame for Farts
Unknown.
A deer, when started by a hunter or
driven by hounds, usually returns in a
few days to the same hill or mountain
side" where he was first found; but a
moose, says Madison Grant in the
Century, when once thoroughly
alarmed, will start on a long, swinging
walk, and, taking with him his entire
family, leave for good. It is one of the
greatest difficulties and there are
many in still-hunting this animal, to
avoid getting him under way, for then
the hunter may as well break camp
and try other fields, since not a moose
will be found within miles. They
scent a moccasin track or the smoke of
a fire at an incredible distance. A
fresh trail may be found one day and
arrangements made to follow it at day
break on the morrow. During the
night the moose, returning to his old
haunts, detect3 the danger-signs, and
all the hunters find m the morning is a
trail six or eight hours old leading for
parts unknown in an almost perfectly
straight .line. The moose is at that
moment, perhaps, twenty miles off and
still going.
Although moose cannot be driven to
water by hounds like a deer, but will
turn savagely to bay,, still they will
not remain in a locality where dogs are
running; so that when the white hunt
ers became numerous in the North
woods, and especially when they intro
duced hounding; the moose simply left
the country and passed either east
ward to Maine or . northward to
Canada.
It is a well-authenticated but little
known fact that they practically left
in one season. They were numerous
in the Adirondacks, especially in
Brown's tract a large district in what
is now the southwestern part of the
wilderness until the period between
1850 and 1855 (probably near the latter
year), when they suddenly disap
peared. Before this several had been
killed yearly. Scattered ones were
shot later, but 1855 marked their exit
from the annals of New York game.
Years later, four or five were brought
back to Saranac, but would not stay.
Tku lioman Consol.
The most honorable office in the Ro
man republic was that of consul.
There were always two elected every
year, one each from the patricians and
plebeians. The onsul must be at
least forty-three years old and must
have held the office of quaestor, aedile
praetor. The consuls were the heads
of the republic, discharging all public
functions, such as receiving ambassa
dors or assembling the senate. Their
insignia were those of a king except a
crown. They were always attended
each by twelve lictors or servants,
bearing the - boxes or bundles of
rods with an ax in the center. The lie
tors, however, proceeded only one at a
time, the lictors of the other following
him. The year was named after them,
and any laws passed at their recom
mendation also went by their names.
They commanded the armies of the re
public, and when both, were with the
same army they commanded on alter
nate days. Under the emperors the of
fice became an empty honor, though
surrounded with much greater state.
Sympathetic Sounds.
A stringed instrument suspended in
a favorable position near a pianoforte
will sound when tones corresponding
to the open strings are produced on the
pianoforte. Ihe volume of the answer
ing tone will depend upon atmospheric
conditions, the quality and color of
the persuading tone and the sensitive
ness of the responding material. There
is a familiar anecdote told of a famous
tenor, who by singing- ' the tone that
was consonant with that of a wine
glass, could make the glass shiver so
violently that it would fall to pieces.
It is because of the . tonal sympathy
that the cause of a harsh, rattling tone
that may suddenly appear in a piano
forte is detected with difficulty.
Though it may appear to be in the in
strument, ft is often far away and may
come from a loose globe or pendant on
a chandelier. Even a key in the door
has been known to be the guilty cause
