1 'JIlEMWyyG JillVALD. MjyDiY, DECElMHElf i5, 1889 A Scientific Courtship Tom Douglas was young, good looking, and would s'ome day bo well to do; but above all things he waa scientific. 'His passion for Hcien:e first became noticable when he began to learn chemistry in the fourth form at Halstones school. Tom and all his class-fellows were deeply taken by the weird and un earthly odors, the terrifying explos ions, and the miraculous subaque ous tire which appeared at the will of Mr. Stubbs, the science master. Indeed they endeavored persist ently to emulate their tutor's ex ploits; but even the tutor's per formances were presently eclipsed by those of his promising pupil Tom. The boy hadaperfectgenius for explosions, bo that it soon be came customary among the others during the two or three hours they spent each week in the laboratory, to give up any little enterprise of their own and simply keep an eye n Tom's movemeuts. It was usually worth their while, for he rarely failed to do something mar velous. When the end of the term came and the youth arrived at his home at Dulberry, he set off at once on a tour cf inspection about the home premises. A small building which belonged to the gardener, and was used by him as storehouse for seeds, llower-pots and other things appertaining to his craft, struck his fancy. lie found no dilficulty to persuade his too complaisant parents to make this room over to him; and notwithstanding the murmurs of Sandy, the gardener, it was emptied of its horticultural contents, fitted with benches, shelves and a fireplace, and gen erally habitable. Chemicals also, and alt kinds of apparatus were ordered from Ixra elon. Had his friends not been al together ignorant of chemicals they would have noticed that the chemi cals that Tom ordered, and for which they blindly paid, were chiefly of the kind that go to make up explosions. Almost as soon as the laboratory had been fitted up the goods arrived from London. On the first day nothing of note was seen or heard, Tom being too busily engaged in arranging and admiring his treasures to begin ex perimenting with them. Soon, however, the household began to listen with mild toleration to the loud explosions which at intervals of about an hour were constantly heard from the direction of Tom's laboratory. They were not quite o tractable, however, when the embryo chemist grew tired for the moment of noises and turned his attention to the production of un pleasant odors. Hut even then the boy was quite safe from interrup tion. They were not likely to at tempt to approach the source of odors, by which they were already almost stifled; whereas Tom rev eled in the malodorous products of his experiments, and behaved, in in an atmosphere reeking with the most ahoiiunaMi' gasses, as if he were once more .breathing his native air after a long and painful period of exile. His love of science grew stronger, if a good deal more rational, as years passed by. At last, when he went up to Oxford, another room was added to his den. This was furnished after tins manner of the average undergraduate's room, and here he kept his crsonal proierty and did most of Ids read ing, lake most science men, he was fond of novels, and of these this room soon contained an ex tensive and catholic Collection. But the course of true love never did run smooth, and at last Tom Douglas discovered that there was one thing which, struggle as he might to ignore it, was beginning to interest him far more than anv of the sciences to which he had hitherto devoted himself. His fa ther's brother had many years ago emigrated to Australia. Al most immediately he had mar ried, but after a few years of hard struggle against poverty, his wife uauuied, leaving to him a little daughter, . Dora. Tom Douglas was in his fourth year when he heard from home that his unknown uncle was dead, his father had re cieved a letter some months before Haying that Dora would soon be alone in the world. She would be quite rich for success had come to her father when it was too late to save his wife and now the dying man begged his brother to become her guardian and offer her a home, ilr. Douglas had at once consented ; and Dora had arrived in England shortly before the commencement of Tom's last long vacation; so that when he arrived at Dilberry she had already been there for a week or two. The cousins became very good friends, and it was the image of a sweet, girlish face, blue oycil, and a little sad, which oc cupied Tom'H mind, and caused him to neglect his science work al most entirely. At the end of the "long" he veut up to Oxford once more in order to take leave of his friends and formally to take his degree, for at the end of the previous term he liad gained a "first" honors in chemistry. This brief absence from Dora was so utterly painful to him that he became aware of the fact that he was really very much in love with her. Of course he ought to have known it before ; perhaps he had done so, but at least he had never acknowledged it to himself. At any rate, he made haste to get back to his home. When be returned to Dulberry lie carried with anxious solicitude', at box, which appeared to contain jiosiething at one: very fragile an 1 inestimably valuable. !ra bad, taken a great interest in his scien- j tilic studies or' rather, lie had re- vived for her benefit Ins ! is!t t'jnterest in explosions. After lunch ; therefore he told her that during bis absence he had iint a !'. days in town and there had secured n scientific wonder which she must examine. He took the box under his arm and away they went to gether into the sanctum in . the garden. Arrived there he opened the box and took out a piece of mechanism, which he said was a phonograph. He showed Dora how a thin piece of mica, moving with the air vibrations on a tnin cylinder of smooth wax, which, by a screw arrangement was caused to move in ihc direction of its length and around its axis. Then he lifted back the cylinder into its original position, so that the point of the stylus rested at the beginning of the little channel which it had already marked out on the wax. Finally, turning the screw again, he set the cylinder in motion, and the stylus, traveling along the line it had traced thereon, vibrated as in the first instance. By this means the mica was once more set in vibration, and, as it communi cated its vibrations to the air, the original sounds were once more re produced. Tom tried to jHiisuade Dora to sing a song, but the presence of that silent recorder made her ner vous, and she was content with listening to the repetition of some trite and rather disconnected re marks of his own. The next few days passed not happily for Tom Douglas. He was in love, deeply in love with Dora, but he did not dare to tell her as yet the secret which was, neverless, betrayed to her keen sight by his every word and action. He sjient a good deal of time alone in his study, and amused himself after a rather silly fashion with the phonograph. One day he had gone off on a visit to some friends, and Dora was feeling lonely and a trifle ennuyee. her cousin begged her to borrow any of his books if at any time she wanted something to read, an,d she went down to his study to get one. As, she went she was thinking of rum, and wondering why he hesi tated toask her the simple ques tion which she would so gladly an swer the question which he was constantly asking himself, and to which his love and humility both gave different answers. She had chosen a book when her eye fell on the phonograph lying ready for use. Now that she was alone, she thought it would be rather pleas ant to try how her own voice sounded. She had read lately in one of the papers that people had no idea of what their own voices sounded like; and she rather wondered whether her singing, of which she was inclined to think highly, was really so good as she imagined. Filled with dread least the un flattering phonograph should prove to her that her voice was harsh and unpleasant, and not quite de cided as to what song she should try, she began to move the treadle which set the cylinder in motion. What sound was that which fell upon her ears? Her cousin's voice was speaking to her; and af. ter a moment of blank astonish ment, she listened with a quiet smile, as though Tom was staud ii g before her in the flesh and say ing what the phonograph said for him. This is what she heard : "Dora, darling, I have loved you ever since the day I first saw you ! 1 have longed to tell you every day -ince then, but have always been ufr.dd. Will vnii trv and love me jast a iittl The voice lapsed 1:1:0 silence. With a Midden gladness IW.i -,iv what had hapened. Her . iiisin had aNo wondered how his voice soandhd to others to her .iiid s;ieeial!y how the question would sound which he so longed to ask. Well, the voice struck her as awkward, constrained and quite unlike, the cheerful tones to which .-he had been accustomed; bu! the words At that moment she heard l. i cousin's voice at the other end of the garden. He had returned home unexiH'ctedlv, and was chatt ing with the gardener, he would be here presently, no doubt. In a moment she had once more siit in motion the cylinder of the phonograph, and bending over it spoke a few words in a low, clear voice. Then she shifted the cyhn back into its original position, and stepped quickly into the next room the laboratory. In a few minutes she heard the conversation between Tom and the gardener cease. The young man came quickly down the garden and entered his sanctum. He flung nis hat ana waiking-stick upon a chair and . then the phonograph struck his atteution. He moved toward it, and stood looking down on it, with his back toward the door of the room whence Dora was eagerly watching him. Then he began absent mindedlv to put the treadle in motion. Once more the phonograph spoke, and as it did so Dora moved silently forward and stood in the open door-way o. the laboratory. "Dora, darling, 1 have loved you ever since the first day I saw you ! I have longed to tell you every day since then, but have always been afraid. Will you try to love me just a little?" Tom heard these words, and then, before he had moved his foot from the treadle, the phonograph spoke in another voice: "Why should you be afraid to come and ask me when you know " It was Dora's voice, and even while he wondered at this marvel he heard the same voice speaking again. "Tom!" said the voice, and turning, he saw his cousin standing with half-parted lips and laughing, rosy face only a yard or two away from him. "Dora," he cried, "you have learned my secret!" Dora moved toward him and hid her face on hi shoulder. Then as he raised and kissed it, she whis pered : " Yes, Tom, long ago."

The surveillance of the park is in the hands of the military, and in good hands too. The present su perintendent is Capt. Boutelle, of the First Cavalry, who succeeded Capt. Harris at the beginning of the season. Under the old system a civic superintendent and nine as sistants were supposed to look after a tract of country nearly half as large as the state of Massachusetts, and not only prevent tourists from carrying away the geyser and hot springs formations, but also to "round up" the hunters and trap pers, who would do much to de plete the national reserve of its noble game unless prevented. There was never anything like a proper patrol of the park nntil it was placed under military control. Every citizen who desires to see wonders preserved should rejoice in Capt. Boutelle's appointment. With the aid of two companies of cavalry, one of which is stationed at Mammoth Hot Springs and the other at Lower Ceyser Basin, small detatchments being placed at the other tourist centers, the regula tions made by the Interior Depart ment have Iren efficiently en forced, and in . manner acceptable to the public. Some persons there may be who have taken umbrage because they were not "icrmitted to despoil the geysers and springs of their beauti ful deposits, but every fair-minded person cannot but rejoice that the rules against carrying away speci mens are strictly and impartially carried out. Captain Bomas, of the First Cavalry, the second in command, is, like Captain Bou telle, a thorough officer and a thorough gentleman. The soldiers are an aid to tourists, not a menace, and while carefully guarding the formations from vandalism, are excellent guides. So carefully is the :'no shooting" regulation enforced, that much of the game is becoming quite tame. While I was riding over the Trout Creek route a few days since two beautiful deer appeared by the roadside and remained there, evi dently without fright, while my wagon was driven by. There are thousands of elk, a few buffalo perhaps three hundred mountain sheep, anteloiie, bears, and other game within the park enclosure. The buffalo are seldom seen but are known to exist in the eastern and southern part of the park. Scientific Farming. The first agricultural exjveriment station, according to Prof. W. U. Atwater, cf the United States De partment of Agriculture, was es tablished at a little German village near Leipsic, in 1851. In lSoii there were five, and in 1S(51 fifteen, in lSfiti thirty, and to-day there arc more than one-hundred experiment stations and kindred institutions in the countries of Europe. The first agricultural station in Ameri ca was established at Middletown, Ct., in 1S73. There were four in operation in ISSO, and in 18K7somc seventeen in fourteen states. In the latter year congress made the enterprise national by an appropri ation of $ 15,0 H per anir.:m to each of the states and territories having agricultural colleges or departments of colleges. This has led to in creased ai tivitv, and there are now fortv-six. or. countim: branches. fifty-seven agricultural nxi-criment stations in trie i nitoa Mates, loi supjKirt these forty-six stations, the j national and state appropriations; for the present year reach about I $720,1 Kit), and over 1)70 trained men I are employed. ! i Eiectrie Power. i The utilization and distribution of electric power are stated by .Mr. F. L. Pojie to have reached by far the greatest development in Switz erland and the United States. In the former country electricity is transmitted to considerable dis tances for large motors. At Solo thurn, a manufactory of machine screws is driven by an electric mo tor of 50 horse power, which de rives its energy from a turbine wheel more than five miles away on a mountain stream. At Deren dingen, a delaine mill of 36,000 spindles is driven by a pair of electric motors of 280 horse power operated by a turbine wheel twelve miles distanj. At Lucerne 120 horse power 'is similarly carried half a mile, and 250 horse power a quarter of a mile. In the United States no electric motor of more than (JO horse power ia known to Mr. Pope, but there are as many as 0,000 small motors in use, a favorite size being 10 horse power. It is predicted that in cities electric motors will soon practically 8up plant the steam engines of less than 50 horse power.
