C.tkering taper in many a shrine of the holy virgin; nncl imagine ourselves in a meoiaevU oity, peopled only with the dim pna&toms of 'he past. Daylight scarcely serves to dispel the illusions cf the night Ha this quaint old city, lonuailed ia a hotel entered from the street through an arched passage into a spacious court, with fountain and stat uary, filled v ith rare plants and flowers, wa walk abor t for miles and miles under stone arcads built out over the side walks, the fronts of the tall and stately palaces and other buildings of Bo man . and laombanlie architecture overhanging the narrow streets. . We pass the cele brated leaning tower whioh has pre served its frsil center of gravity for so many eentnri.es, and aepulchera and mon umsnta of heroes whose names are only known to us, and enter the churches of Baa Domini s and San Fetronio and many others, filled with columns, stat utes and ornaments, the spoil of early struggles wi h. the Saracen and the Turk, with many pictures of .the ideal saints and heroes, laitW nl teachers and holy martyrs tor conscience sate. - Jfassing tse rinacoteca, we find a sne oession of vell4ighted galleries, better adopted to the purpose of exhibiting large picsnras than any otnera m Italy, ' exoept tbe tnagnincent galleries of Yen ice, and altLough the collection is not large it comprises some of the Snest ex . amples of ti e works of Cimu di Come- gliano; Yanriucci eaiied it Ferugino: Ko busti called it Tintoretti; Kobolini called it Francieca Prancia, the friend of t i i 1 -. : t j 1:1 lome: Jarbiera called it unenno, Gam tier sailed it Dominichino and Elizabetta irami ' the pupil . and competitor of Gnide BnL liaphael's famous picture . of St, Cecilia represents the Spanish patron of music as a rather stout, and even buxom midd'e-aged woman dressed ia a heavr brocade garment reaching up close to the neck ana covering the arms. with bo attempt at artistio nudity, in - companv witb lour c inert saints, listen' iag with ecttacy to a concert around the -"MS white tnrone. Zne rnpt, intense si.ki.cit VsHrtnmty effective and worthy of tiie great master. There are no conventional tricks of pious custume and pallid devotion, bnt the artist has taken an ordinary, healthy whole-some lewking fomale and by his genius transformed her into a beautiful and spiritual devotee; even the drapery is full of eztatic emotion. The representation of various musical instru ments at hrr feet are beneath the dignity of Raphael; and were painted in by Jean" di Udine, one of his pupils. This picture alone draws many tourists to Bologna, although not reoognized as equal to many othea of the great artist's masterpieces, for all of his works are masterpieces. There is but one Raphael, and no other artist spprt Aohes him as to be worthy to kiss the he n of his garment. Here, also, we see sis great pictures of Guido Reni, the most striking and beautiful being the massacre tf the innocents, and Bam son victorious over the Philistines. Here, also, we see Ouido's head of Christ crowned with tborns, designed in paste upon paper, which has been engraved so often and is seen everywhere, and which has beeome the traditional and conven tional representation of our Savoir. These pictures establish the reputation of Onido Reni and entitle him to be ranked among the great artists of his age. Resides the allegorical fresco of daybreak, the "Aurora" of the Baspigliosi palace in Rome, there are no other pictures that so fully exemplify his great genius and jus tify his being placed in the company of j the great masters in painting. His distin guished pupil, Elizabeth Sirani, daugh ter of Andrea of that name, but for tier early death, hastened by partiality and . injustice, would have ontstriped the mas ter as many gifted scholars have done in all times. Although her designs and pointings were approved they were afterward rejected, and .-her commission for an impor tant work at Rome annulled, when it was known that the artist was a woman. . It was even reported that her strange death, in her 27th year, was eansed by poison administered by jealous and disappointed rivals. About a dozen of the produc tions of hnr brush, including her master piece, "The Adoration of Saint An thony," are found in these galleries, which attest the prominence of her genius.' Borne of the smaller ones are - exquisitely beautiful, especially "The Apparition of Saint Phillip Neri," and the "Saint Mary Msdelaioe." Among ether paintings by female artists we no tice one by Caterina Vigri, painted in 1451, two hundred years before Sirani's time, representing the martyrdom of St. Ursula; also, some fine portraits by La inia Fontana, daughter of Prospero Fontana, the preceptor of Calaoci,jaint- ed about Uie year low.

Portraits, busts, and tablets of all these "dottoresse are to be seen in the grand Bala, and the statues ; of ' Tamhor ini and Bassi in the loggin are beautiful specimens of arts and monuments to these noted female professors. So it seems that the right of woman both to know and teach law, pbvsio, philosophy, and language was early recognized among the literati of Bologna. It was reserved to onr times to recognize the propriety of her being also a teacher of divinity. The walls of the grand salon of the medi cal department are covered with repre sentations in fresco of the coats-of-arms of many noble students who graduated in medicine from the university long centuries ago. ; j Besides the multitudes of arcad arcades throughout the city, there is a covered archway from one of the principal gates of the city the Porta San Isia to a church and monastery upon a hill three miles distant. The chapel of the Ma donna Di San Luca was built in the year 1160 to contain the picture of the Virgin, painted by the Greek physician and artist, the apostle St. Luke.: It became a chapel of pilgrimage, and to accommo date the immense throngs who visited the sacred picture the church was en larged and beautified, and this arcade constructed at an enormous expenditure of money and a hundred years of time. Among the msny magnificent paintings whioh adorn the walls of this church is a beautiful one by Elizabeth Sirani, paint ed in her 20th year, representing the baptism of Christ. The arcade is built with two stories, the upper one for foot passengers and the lower one for car' nages, and consists of bio arches of brick and stone and twice as many col umns of marble. At intervals along this curious way fifteen chapels are con structed, each bearing upon its wall a fresco representing the fifteen mysteries of the rosary. , At the 'foot of the hill upon which the church is situated is a magnificent arch very appropriately called II Arco Melpncello (the portico of melancholy) from which the arcade branches off to the Convent of Certosa, built in 1335 and suppressed . in 1797, and now used as a cemetery. This unique and beautiful burying place oc cupies the convent which was built upon the ancient site of an Etruscan cemetery, and the cloisters have been enlarged and and added to until it has become a vast metropolis, filled with toombs, statues, tablets, busts, and inscriptions of the most interesting character. The dead are deposited in the massive walls through openings made in the outside, which are closed up with cement, and the monuments and works of .art are placed in secure position upon the side, sheltered from the weather, wh they remain for ages. Many of the finest pieces -of statuary and antique mo: ments have been removed from churches and cemeteries in the city and vicinity, and productions of many of the best modem artists, both in : painting and sculpture, are found in the nu merous . chapels ; and long gal leries of this strange sepulchral city of the dead. Here we pause to ad mire a beautiful full-length statue by Canova or Scandeliari, and there before a bust by Bartolini or Salvini. We are deeply impressed with the appropriate gracefulness and beauty of a white marble female figure set in relievo against a black marble background, representing the pensive sorrow of a young girl at the tomb of her lover the work of a young uoiogneae sculptor. A noble statue of a woman with her finger to her lips. representing silence, stands before the tomb of a gallant young officer killed in a duel. The story is that the officer was tne brotner-in-law of the silent lady, and that another : gentleman, who had also conceived a passion for her, imagined he stood in the war of his success, and in his insane jealousy challenged and shot him. The real history of the affair was never certainly known, as the lady pre- Bcrreu a botce Hueuue in regard VJ li ; but, as the rumors and gossips were very unpleasant to herself and husband, they removed frem the country, and another brother caused this singular monument to be erected. Everywhere we see por traits on-, canvas, and frescoes, and mosaics, on the walls, and one can wan der here for hours listening to the gossip of the loquacious custodian, relating to tne private and romantic histories of the quiet sleepers beneath these lofty arches of stone, supported by long rows of gleaming white - marble columns. Altogether, it is the most an propriato and agreeable receptacle for the dead known to our humanity. There is something repulsive in the idea of the ancient Jbgyptian caves filled with in numerable bandaged and shriveled im ages of the dead. The Roman catacombs are dark and gloomy store-houses of nameless bones; and even the modern necropolis of Paris, the famous Pere la Chaise, has the repulsive feature of deep and narrow wells, into which the remains of loved ones are lowered and placed one upon another until the "grave" is filled. Even our modern park cemeteries, em bellished with walks and trees, grass and flowers, beautiful as they seem, are redo lent with worms and decay, not to men tion the unpleasant suggestion of a res urrection before the time and a possible dissecting-room; and many of them seem like immense maible yards, filled as they are with flat head and foot stones, lines of crumbling curbstones, decaying wooden fences, or black and rusting iron inclosures. The disgusting collection of bones in churches in Rome, and in many rural chapels in Switzerland and the Ty rol, labeled "Here lies the bones of our beloved daughter," etc., are simply hor rible. If the dead are to be sepulchred and preserved to await a resurrection to new life, commend us to the cloister system of Bologna. The open area which is surrounded by all "these galleries and cloisters is reserved for the burial of the poor, and burned to make room for new comers, the ashes Deing deposited in urns and placed un der the open porticos. This seems bar barous, indeed, when compared with the eare taken of the bodies of the rich; but i is no worse man the custom at Pere le Chaise of evicting the tenants of rented graves who are in arrears for rent, and tumbling them into common trenches outside the city; or the Spanish custom of stripping the dead before casting moot into a pit with quicklime to hasten decomposition; or even the practice of the Parrees, of Persia, who deposit the bodies of their dead at the summit of tall towers that the birds of prey ! may pick the flesh from the bones, which then drop through the gratings into the dead charnel pit beneath. Surely there is some better, wiser, more economical, and more philosophical, as well as mora natural and agreeable method of dispos ing of the dead than any of those yet procuueu upon wis cnanging and alter nating footstool of the Almighty by His darkened and groping children. Turning from this subject, by an easy transition we are reminded of the com ing meeting of the savants of the world who are investigating the history of the dead past by study of the inscriptions written by nature upon her rocks and minerals, preserved in her strata, and re vealed by the upheaval of her' earth quakes, the eternal corrosion of the ele ments by the constant action of frost and snow, by the ever changing yet sure and consistent action of her laws. The sec ond international congress of geologists is to be held at Bologna during the com ing year. The first congress was held at Pans in 187S. One of the main objects of the conference is to devise a method f or the unification of geological names and fiirnres, and the formation of some identical geological nomenclature.

Fernando Jokes. i v '. Iscartols, : 1 The world is full of Iscariots. The original was not so bad as he was painted. did not mean compass the death of tne saviour, dui luougu ne euuiu yo thirty pieces of silver and that the power of his Master was too absolute for any harm to come lo him. There are thou sands and tens of thousands of men like him in the world. There are men who will betray their country in a small way ' to make money of it. iiiey console themselves with the thought that the country is too great to be shaken by so little a transaction, and yet out; of them have grown all our Indian wars, De- cause of them almost ail tne sorrows and divisions of the country have come, and because' of them the masses have fallen off in respect for the authorities so much that really upright men hesitate before jeopardizing their good names through accepting office, The baneful evil descends to private life and-becomes the father of a thousand heart aches and crimes. The clerk loves his employer, would not harm him for the world, and yet some time he ventures to take a dollar, unaccounted jor, irom the till intending to replace it next day. Like Judas he wants the silver and be lieves that the act of getting it is not a be trayal of bis Master; but the next day he wants more and the result is flight or a prison, or often, as did the Iscariot of old, he goes out and hangs himself. A great evil may cloud or fetter a commu nity. You will find a thousand men who will denounce it to you and tell you it ought to be abated, but if the test comes that requires their presence or their sig nature they will refuse. Why? Because for the little silver they can gain by hiding their thoughts, they have sold their souls, and are willing to make those who nurse the wrong believe they are smiling approval; The greed for gold is emasculating the world. Men are betraying their i Master, principle, every day for it, as imuch as did Judas Iscariot. They are obsequious to wealth; they smile approval i to tyrannies; they withhold their hands from the palms of honest poverty; they betray their own manhood; they are Iscariots for coin. The eves of mothers catch the gleam of gold and become facinatod until they be tray their daughters into false marriages even while, like Iscariot, they kiss them. Young girls walk the streets and watch thefinerv displayed in the windows, and the Iscariot within then begins to whisper "Of course youll not betray yourself to the world, but von aro very poor, and the mantle of the night will conceal for you a little indiscretion. Either the old is cariot has been too much blamed or there is not blame enough for those who imi tate him in modern days. The thing most full of human nature in the New Testament ia that the Savior, or even af ter at His touch the eyes of the blind were opened, and at the sound of His voice the grave gave up its dead the most natural thing, we say, was tbat He was betrayed by one He thought his friend, and tbat He was betrayed for money. j An Artificial Sun. An electrical engineer of Boston is about to try the experiment of lighting liolyoko, Mass., in a manner that will strike tho present genera tion as novel. It is proposed to build a tower seventy-five feet high overlooking the town. This ia to be surmounted by an immense lantern of such illuminating capacity as to put all previous lamps in the cate gory ot trifles. At present only one tower wilt bo built, but it the princi ple should prove a success, seven or eicht towers will ultimately be erected, that tho city may be ren dered as light as day, and gas and kerosene completely superseded The idea of the inventor is to charge the upper strata of the atmosphere with luminous vibrations in the same manner as is done by the sun, and thus to produce the same effect that is obtained during the day from the reflected, refracted and diliused light of that popular orb. It is believed that eleclrio light can thus be made to permeate spaces which are inac cessible to direct rays by the same law by which daylight diffuses it self tbat is, by virtuo of an expan ive property which is constantly il lustrated on the largej scale of polar illumination, but has noplace in our lxt books on optics.. The lig given by the solar orb a few minutes after sunset, when only tho upper strata of tbe atmosphere are directly affected by the solar beam, furnishes tho best example of tho diffusion and expansion that tho Boston engineer proposes to imitate artificially. Mis plans provide fur an illuminating power from each lantern equal to 300,000 candles, which is nearly twenty times larger than that of any electric lamp yet manufactured, but is not all impracticable, as it involves only an increase in electrical volumo and pressure, and a corresponding in crease in tbe diameter ot the car bons. The cost of tho tower, lamp and generator for a single lamp will be 815.000. irrespective of tho engine power reauired to run the latter. If this experiment succeeds Edison will have to look to his laurels. Paris Unhealthy and Us safe. The unhealthiness of Paris has been so marked recently that it has excited the attention of the authorities who are care fully looking to the drainage and other matters of civic hygiene. Among other reformations, the old laws are to be again put in force as to the keeping within the city not only of animals such as pigs, cows, sheep, etc., but also the more domestic pets, like dogs, cats and birds. The n amber of dogs and cats in almost every street in Paris is something enormous, and tneir presence in the liv ing rooms of the poorer quarters must be very detrimental to the public health. An inspection will shortly be made as to the domestic pets of ' each family, and strict regulations made as to how many each house may be allowed to keep. In the matter of safety of the streets the police are eauallv vigilant. During the last six weeks, in one quarter alone, that of St. Vincent do faul in the tenth arrondissement, there have been 273 ar rests of vagabonds and night prowlers, and the numbers are pretty much the same for the other quarters, making alto gether some 250 arrests every night. London Times. Every now and then a car falls of the new York elevated railroad into tne street and hurts a man. Some day one will fall and crash a dog, and then Mr. Eergh will take steps to have the whole elevated business pulled np by the roots. In the stillness of the night, when all the candidates are asleep, Professor bsrift, cf r.&chw-tcr, boldly discovered another comet.

Matter, force and intelligence consti tute the sun of the universe, the Trinity which J3pinoza said "I choose to call God." M arils a compound of matter, force and intelligence; an epitome of the universe, in the image of God. Matter without force were dead; force without intelligence were blind. The degree and character of intelligence manifested determines the rank or value of any or ganization in the scale of being. Intelli gence ia manifested in two ways uncon scious and conscious. In' our own or ganization, unconscious intelligence pre sides over the action of the heart, stom ach, lungs, and other organs whose functions are not what physiologists torm involuntary,' Conscious intelli gence is manifested in the various modes of thought, and through it we control our external actions and relations. . Were we not endowed with the power of thought we could nave no consciousness of exist ence. "I think; therefore I am," said the great French philosopher. We begin to be (as personalities) when we become conscious of existence, and the sum of our consciousness is the measure of our life. The stomach, lungs. etc., being organs of unconscious J functions, represent the physical nature, The brain, the organ of thought, repre sents the intellectual, the human. It is therefore superior, sovereign. . The head commands and the body obeys. Nor does the plebeian body ever question the propriety of an order issued by its sov ereign, whether it be to wield the dag ger of the assassin, run on an errand of mercy, or bow beneath the heaviest cross oi ton. The brain comprises three principal groups of organs, corresponding to three classes of faculties, selfish, intellectual and moral. These are all intelligent ; but the degree and character of this in telligence differ greatly, and differing, conflict. The consciousness of the selfish group is manifested chiefly in desire and effort to benefit itself. The consciousmess of the intellectual group is displayed in a search after knowledge. ' The conscious ness of the moral group is seen in aspira tions after the good, the true, and the beautiful. This first gives us all our wars, murders, tyrannies, robberies and crimes of whatever sort, as well as all our physical pleasures. The second, all our literature, art and science. The thud, all our religion, philosophy, jus tice, liberty and fraternity. The relative power of these groups in any given case is determined by their relative size. This being true, we have only to know that the selfish group has v; hflen. ni still is. the West fn thfl average man, to account rationally the facts of history and observation that so disgrace our race. " Tis the mind that makes the man." The strong-limbed, muscular, but igno rant barbarian of primitive times was bnt a dim prophecy of true manhood. He was a slave to superstitious fears and physical necessities. He cowered before the forces of nature, and toiled as a galley-slave for a meagre and mean sub sistence. The element of manhood in herent within him rebelled against a fate so painful and plebeian, and cudgeled the brain for plans by which to secure a better living at a less cost of labor. This discontent and taxing of the brain was continued, and under the activity thus induced, the brain has steadily increased in size and power, and ia still inoreasincr. The result is mar velous, both as to magnitude and benefi cence. A single brain, once limited to the superintendence of the operations of one pair of hands, may now control ma chinery representing a thousand pair of hands, and this machinery is run by steam and wastes not one ounce of mus cular force. The unwritten prophecy is about to be fulfilled. Man is rapidly emerging from his apprenticeship to the parent of invention, necessity, into the realm of independence of thought and action. The forces and appetites that have so long enslaved him are to be the instruments of his will and ministers of his pleasure. ' There is a current and popular legend, to the purport that it was God's original purpose -to keep man in ignorance and support him in idleness, which scheme was spoiled by the perversity of woman, as manifested in tasting forbidden joys, and seeking unlawful knowledge. Then God placed man under the curse of toil, saying to him, "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread." The legend is true to those who are able to interpret it, as are all the sacred myths and le gends that have come down to us from the venerable past. There was, no doubt, an era when the primitive man leaned like an infant upon the breast of his mother nature, drawing his sole sus tenance from the spontaneous fruits of her bosom. From this dream of infancy he at length awoke to the necessities of clothing, and ether luxuries which na ture had not supplied. To these wants involved labor, aud the era of toil was inaugurated. From this hard school of bitter experience the race is to graduate into the era of thonght. ; '- The new command is, "Develop your brain and use it in an intelligent man ner;" for the time is not distant when there will be no room in this world for him who shall have naught to sell but his muscle; who can do nothing but toil with his hands. It is written upon the wall of the Temple of Fate, "Become a thinker, or perish." Nor is this a hard doom. To the intellectual alone is life a blessing. The ignorant man begins his career in a cheerless childhood, passes through a toilsome and anxious manhood to a sorrowful old age, sinking at last into a nameless grave. . - The only possible, complete remedy for the evils that now afflict society, and of which workingmen and philanthrop ists so justly complain, is to abolish the monopoly of brains by making thought universal. This done, and the monopoly of wealth and power will pass away for ever. Thk Apachh Who Could Ride a "Bbonco."' Tom Newland has an In dian who place a high estimate on his equestrian ability. There was a horse to be brought into town a few days avo, and the Indian was given the job. He was told he was a "bronco," bnt it was, "esla baeno, me- abe." Hitching the animal to a tree, he carefully placed the sweat cloth on him; then the blanket, the bri dle and the saddle; at each performance giving voice to a satisfied "Ah, hah," each ejaculation growing intenser until he got into the saddle. All this time the "bronco" looked as unlike Alexander the Great's war horse, Bucephalus, as a carpenter's saw horse. The Indian started; he gained the crest of the hill where the scrub oak was thickest: he turned and gave another "Ah, hah, which was followed so closely by ''whoa" that it sounded like a compound word. Then' something rose a few feet in the air, went back, and rose again. There was a cloud of dust, a heap of Apache talk, a flash of bright colors, and silence. When Tom went up, he found tbe horse grazing in the most orthodox fashion, and a strip of white breech clout, and a pair of brown legs surmounted by red stockings and iron clad shoes sticking up from the middle of a scrub oak like a new sort of plant. Tom got him out of the brush, and when he said "Ah, hah," the Indian looked as though he wanted to go on the war-path. Th body of Mrs. Mycr, who died of typhoid fever in Jersey City a few weeks ago, was disinterred recently on account of tbe statement of her daughter that she knew her mother had been buried alive, for she had been calling to her for help, saying, "Come and help me, for God's sake. Come and help me I" To tbe horror of the relatives it was found that the body had turned over in the coffin.

Gigantic for tunes have been made bygathering frag ments that seemed worthless. A French man became wealthy,, by. picking up crusts of bread in the streets of Paris. He dried the crusts and sold them for bird food. During our war men rolled up majestic fortunes by following the army and picking up bits of fat and scraps of meal. There are old men and women who spend their time in hooking out from ash barrels and dirt heaps the little pieces of coal and other substances which have been overlooked. . Although these people are dirty and wear tattered clothes, some of them have large pos sessions. The. old Scotch proverb, "Many a nickle makes a muokle, lies at the basis of the successful enterprise of these slow and patient gatherers. Each piece picked up is of infinitesimal value. To the careless observer these pieces seem of no value at all; and it is only when their value is massed that it is per ceptible. The fact that the accumula tion of the little sometimes leads to solid prosperity contains a wholesome lesson to the profligate persons who squander their little opportunities and throw away their spare moments. -,- To save time and material is not only desirable, but praise worthy. There is, on the ether hand, a danger of overdoing the business of devotion to the infinitesimals, John Bunyan pic tured a man whs was bo closely occupied with his muck-rake as to neglect bril liant inducements which were offered him from another direction. . This grov eling person was delighted to rake to gether dried leaves and chips of dirt that he could give no attention to the orown of solid worth offered him by a condescending angel. There is a story of a man who once found great success in picking up pins from the pavement, and who waa so pleased by it that he ever afterwards walked with eyes directed downward, looking for pins. History records that in the course of his life he found a great many pins; but it adds that he never had a soul above pins. There was an old merchant down town who had a practice of making Out his bills on bits of brown wrapping paper, and of writing his let ters on scraps of anything that would hold a pencil-mark. He grew immensely rich; and died despised by everybody, yet leaving a substantial fortune to rela tives who rejoiced that such a miser was gone. Every now and again a few paragraphs ( a ? " "e" "u " . s ! bont Stephen Girard or some other and stories go the rounds of the press bits of string or hammering crooked nails straight. These are circulated with a view to making prodigal young men into thrifty ones. We are told that Rothschild or Contts or Jim Fisk, or somebody, earned their first few thousand dollars by untying string from bundles instead of cutting it into short and value less bits. A. T. Stewart is by some peo ple supposed to have taken his first steps to wealth by making crooked nails from packing boxes into straight ones. It is not.recorded how many times he mashed his thumb in the early stages of his busines, when crooked nails dodged the blows of the hammer and flew up to hit him in the eye. The Asters are sup-, posed to have saved enough on bait for the traps in which old Mr. Astor caught the animals whose fur he sold to erect the big hotel in New Yorfc which bears their name. And so it is with stories of others who have piled up the world's wealth. Now the fact is that a great many of these stories and examples are simply ridicnlons, and lead young men to sub stitute the ignoble for the noble in their purposes and aims. There were days in which it paid for an intelligent young man to straighten nails, for hardware was notjthen what it is now. When nails are as now only afew cents a pound, meat young men can employ their time in better ways. An industrious youth does well to be thrifty in the use of twine and other sundries, but if he spend tea cents' worth of time and effort in saving three cents' worth of string, the investment is a poor one. The man who wants to hold his head high among men of business has nothing to gait by using old scraps of paper instead of decent stationery. There is a commendable sort of thrift and there is a thrift which is despicable. The man with the muck-rake may have. been an industrious fellow, but give us rather the man who has enterprise enough to look upwards and ambition enough to robe himself in a becoming manner, while he diligently seeks suc cess in great things as well as small and in those which are worth looking after rather than in those which are to be despised. -: - -' Progress of the Electric Light. The electria light seems to be com ing into use in England almost as fast as in America, It is the Anglo American Electric Light Company that controls the Jablockoff system, but having become satisfied last win ter that tho Brush was the better system, it purchased the English patents for $150,000. In the moan time a commission, appointed by Par liament, made a report filling a large volume, which, after months of in vestigation and a thorough test of the Siemens, Gramme, Wallaco and other systems, awarded tbe Brush light the superiority over all others by 40 per cent, in the results at tained. The government immedi ately cabled the Brush Company at Cleveland an order for 880,000 worth of apparatus. The fact was tele graphed all over tho world, and was in the Telegram's Associated Press dispatches last February. Since then the Anglo-American Company have sold enough machines to make the aggregate reach nearly 1000 lights. The Government lights are used in the Royal navy, in the ship yards and offices. It requires 80-horse power to drive twenty-seven Sie mens lamps, of , 2000 candle power each. To drive twenty -seven lamps of the Brush system, requires 24-horse power. It requires a separate ma chine for each Siemens lamp. One machine drives forty Brush lamps. The greater economy in fuel with tho saving in wire and machinery mast at once be apparent. The Brush French patents have been bought for 1250,000. To run forty Brush lamps requires but thirty-four-horsa power. The machines can bo ran for fifty per cent less than gas can be manu factured here, and as the plant can be bought for less than one-sixth of the amount expended in expensive pipe systems, it furnishes an inviting field tor capital. The wires being run into the stores the same as tele graph wires are run, does away with the expense of making connections, and there is no loss from leakage. The light is being used. in churches East, and is said to be advantageous for both churches and large halls, al though it does not answer for dram atic performances where at times ab solute quiet is required, the carbons occasionally making a slight noise when feeding. It will probably be introduced in churches here, there having been correspondence for that purpose begun with Eastern pastors where the light is used. As nearly all the business houses using light are closed Sunday night, the power can very well be employed for" furnishing the electric light to churches. . The eondor of the Andes is said to kill his prey with his bill. The condor's must be a "heasy prey." If our creditors could have come that dodge on us we would have been dead long ago, as it is we gc&one better on Sancho Panza and feel liia remarking "God bless the man wbnrinv'itaSLthe process of receiving He Couldn't Help It There was -another ease yesterday of a boy who couldn't help it, A prominent and dignified citizen : was looking out through the third story window of a block on Jefferson avenue which he had thoughts of renting, when the idea sud denly struck him to look into the alley in the rear, r He raised the sash of a window and peered out upon ash boxes, coal scuttles and barrels of straw with out number, and was about to close his observations when, the sash came down with a .thud and struck him behind his shoulders. .In his fright be fell to his knees, and while the solid tialf- of his body was all right the lighter was over tbe window, sill. In addition to the weight of the sash any movement of his body was accompanied by pain.. The cash could not bp reached, with his hands freely enough to lift it, and it .soon oc curred to the prominent citizen tbat he ought to have help. He could not expect it from behind, for he was alone in the store, 'but as ha lojoked down into the alley a boy came stumping along to find something worth lagging away. , ; "Hello, bovl hello! ' called thecitizen. Hello yourself !') cried the boy as he lookea up. i "Say. boy. e under the window here; I want to speak to you." "Not much, Ver don't," chuckled the gamin. " i on can t drop no coal scuttle on my head." "But Idoa't mean to, Mebbe not, but you've got a bad fine on you for all that. When did you get out of the ing? "Boy, l want your help." no does yeri auntl Don't get me to stand in with! lo such duffer as you arel" "I'm caught in this window and want to get out. "So would II Been prospecting for old junk, eh? You'll get six months for that! "If you'll come up-stairs and help me out lUgive you a dollar!" "Adollarl You can't play no dollar store on me, old man! If you make up another face like that at me ill hit you in the eye with this old lemon. I don't look starched np, but I don't let any man insult me, all the same. "Don't you know who I am ?" softly asked the citizen. "Naw. I don't, but IH bet the per- leece do. You've got one of the hardest mugs on you I ever saw, and I've a good mind to give you one, just for luck! Look out now, He made as if he would throw, and the citizen dodged. This was such fun for the boy that he kept it up for three or four minutes, and the offer of $2 had no effect on him. Then he gathered six or eight old lemons and oranges to gether, and said: I "I believe you are the boss hyena who knocked dad down at tns caucus, and i in going to drive your nose back exactly an nohr "The sooner ye call the sooner yell be jugged! Mere s to hit you square on the nose! The Opening of the back door of a store and the appearance of a man dis concerted the lad's aim, and the lemon Btrnck the citizen's hat instead of his nose. His yell brought a climax, but the air was full of tropical fruit even as the boy dusted down the alley and turned a corner, The boy couldn't help acting that way. He was born so. It wouldn't have been a bit like a boy to run up stairs and re lease the man. He didn't have a fair Bhow with his spoiled lemons, but boys soon get over disappointments. Detroit t ree JFress. The Russian Grand Duke. The Grand Duke Constantino, brother of the Czar of Russia, is described by a foreign writer as a maritime Chester field. He has a ready compliment for every one who approaches him in society, and has a good deal of light chit-chat for all sorts of persons. But in private his speech is curt, and he deals in those ex pletives without which the sailor s vocabulary would be incomplete. The Grand Duke was married young to the handsomest Prinoess in Germany a blessing he never much valued. He travels abroad by himself, and the Grand Duchess Constantino by herself. Con stantino has navigated and circumnavi gated a good deal as an officer of the Russian navy, of which he is now the Lord High Admiral. As he grows elderly he stiffens and shows hereditary pipe-clay. His carriage has the bolt upright stiffness of the Prussian officer, and his trousers fit as if held down with straps. His trunk is clothed in a kind of naval pea-jacket. His step is, for so tall a man, curiously mincing. It is a dancing master's step, and enables him rapidly and without fatigue to cover a deal of ground. The Czar has an ennnyt look, and gives the impression of a man who never had a friend that was not a valet. Constantino looks as though he folt himself watched -by spies, and glances about without turning his head. He is very fond of animals, and has in his park in Russia a "Zoo" of his own, in which there are remarkable specimens of Asiatic goats, buffaloes and yaks. The Climax of Love Slorle?. It was, we think, with Jane Eyre that it began to be supposed that the hot en counter of two lovers, with all their juxta-positions and all their quarrels, heats and coolnesses, was the only ob ject of fiction disastrous discovery which has done more damage in the world than many a more important mis take. Taking Shakspeare s example, however, we .may say that a story which is pure love and nothing else, must end in a catastrophe. It is an intolerable state not to be supported by the great mass of beings who are not in love, and its suddenness, and the overpowering brief current of its potency, the pity of the strange and tragic conclusion, the bitter sweet of that union which is end ing, are component parts of its power over us, and justify its acceptance as the supreme romance, the one typical tale of youth and passion. There is no looking behind or after in that sudden rapture it is all concentrated in the moment, the hour, the one point of everlasting dura tion, whioh to ordinary mortals is beat out upon tho eloek in the shortest apcll of time. But when the youthful pair occupy their real position in a real world, the interest of their story not only gives zest to the study of more ordinary existence, but it gives the indispensable composition, the necessary beginning and ending which every tale requires, SHOUT BITS.

"The Hindoos perform the wonderful trick of making a mango out of nothing. The nearest approach we can make to that trick ia to make a man go out of a door." Boston Post. We can -do worse than that. We can make a man go out of his somes by inflicting such jokes upon him.' . Cost of Brinoino Up a Bot. A cler gyman who has been discoursing about boys has devoted considerable attention to the cost of these somewhat necessary individuals, and he estimates the expense of bringing a good boy with all the ad vantages of city life, to the age of fifteen at about 83,000. These figures are about doubled by the time the boy is of age, if he goes through college. A bad boy, ar rived at the age mentioned, costs fully as much, even if he has not been to college, and the computation, as the reverend gentlemen suggests, does not include the valuo of the mother's tear's and the father's gray hairs, Most men who have brought up boys will agree that the efcUaaUi is sot too hi.!. . Much Finding. According to the London Medical Record, an American physician, Dr, Far rar, haa calculated that about half a ton of pure gold is annually packed away into American teeth; and he goes on to assert that, at this rate, within 800 years as much pure gold will have been buried with the teeth into which it is packed as there is now in the whole gold circula tion of the earth. Perhaps Dr. Farrar is right, for half a ton of gold is only 17, 920 ounces avoirdupois, and supposing that one American in a hundred haa his teeth stopped with gold, that would give each an average amount of annual stop ping of something like one-sixteenth of an ounce, which is not. perhaps, a very extravagant amount But we are not in clined to speVl wonder on these trite cal culations of how much gold all the stuffed teeth of the ages may be event ually supposed to contain, any more than on how many wasted minutes all the use less calculations of the ages may be sup posed to nave accounted for. Ion might just as well calculate how many yards of artery there are pulsing away at a Guild hall dinner, ot how many multiples of the present Lord Mayor would, reach to tne moon. It is always easy to astonish people by manipulating the insignificant facts of life with the aid of the multipli cation table, bnt the astonishment is bar ren, not to say a little imbecile. The Spectation. Orea-oa H atekiaery ! t. H. P. Gregory A Co., importers and commission merchants of San Francisco, have lately opened a branch of their house at No. 43 Front Btreet, Portland. For many years they have been known as one of the heaviest California firms deal ing in machinery, engines, etc., and their large and growing trade in Oregon has compelled them to open a house here. Mr. Stewart McClnre is the resi dent partner here, and is a very pleasant gentleman to deal with. They carry wood working machinery of all kinds, saw mills and saws, machinists tools, steam engines and boilers, lubricating oils, blowers and exhaust fans, and make rubber goods a specialty. A complete line of engineer supplies can always be found at their Portland house, where the best of terms is always given to the trade. Catalogues sent on application.
