. SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.
In 1835 gold pen manufacturing be
gan in earnest and on a considerable
6cale in America, being inaugurated iD
New York by Levi lirown.
When hat making was introduced
into America is not certainly known,
but in 1732 the industry had become so
extensive that English hat makers com
plained bitterly that not only could
they not sell their hats in America, but
that American hats were actually sold
in England.
The enormous extent of the for
ests, and also of the lumber industries,
of the northwest is indicated by the
fact that this year Washington will
make shipments of lumber aggregating
400,000,000 feet, Oregon 130,000,000 feet
and British Columbia 40,000,000 feet.
And there is no danger of the supply
running short.'
San Jose; one of the principal Cali
fornia fruit-shipping points, sent east
in one week 1,146,960 pounds of green
lruit, 2,363,835 pounds of sun-cured
fruit, 870,950 pounds of canned fruit
and 447,000 gallons of wine and brandy.
During the same time Fresno shipped
east 40 car loads of raisins, making
about 550 car loads of this fruit sent
eastward this season. San Jose also
sent east 53,280 pounds of garden seeds
during last week.
Of the human heart Dr. Ephraim
Cutter writes: "I have listened to the
heart sounds of one woman and one
man, both over 99 years of age, with
feelings of awe, and have thought how
'vonderf ul it was that these hearts had
pulsated so long, propelling blood
through vessels which if possible to
be ranged in one lino would on a very
moderate estimate reach twice around
the earth, or 48,000 miles, with a leeway
for the average red disc of one-forty-eight-thousandth
of an inch I"
The antitoxin discoveries have in
fused the greatest amount of activity
Into f he labors of the bacteriologists of
Eurojte, and a correspondent of the
Kun writes to warn young Americans
that, for the present, they had best stay
at home, for the eminent men of the old
country are too much engrossed with
their own "original investigations" to
have time for Imparting Instructions to
others. He concludes by saying that
'the scientific men of to-day who are
making Investigations in bacteriology
are as feverish u were the prospectors
for gold In California half a century
go." '
Ether Is preferred as an anaesthetic
In northern countries and chloroform
In the aouth, although ether tends to
cauae secretion In the air passages and
bronchial trouble. One cauae is un
doubtedly the difficulty f Vet-ping
rtber In hoi climates. But Dr. Lan
der Brunton suggest that the gen
rral abstention from meat may be
another reason for the ticrcnaful uae
of chloroform. He Is led to this from
the Increased Dumber of fatalities un
der chloroform In Edinburgh since the
Introduction of American and Auatra
l.sn meats, which has made meat eating
more common among all claaaes In
Scotland.
Dr. Heubner, professor of the (lis
eaaea of children In the ('Diversity of
IVrlln, has published an important re
port on the results of the scrum treat
ment of diphtheria. The number of
deaths this year In Berlin, 43t, was 200
Iras than the average and 100 leas than
in the moat favorable year on m-ord,
while the number of raaea baa in

"There was a sound of scuffling from
within and suddenly the door opened
and a woman, excited, panting, with
wild and disheveled looks, appeared at
the door clutching a boy, who was more
frightened even than was the woman.
"One glance settled it. The boy was
the son of a woman occupying the ad
joining room. The little fellow, out of
curiosity, had climbed to the top of the
partition and, losing his balance, had
fallen over into the next room, landing
on the bed of a rather elderly spinster.
"The ridiculousness of the whole af
fair seemed to dawn upon all at the
same time, and everyone joined in a
good, hearty laugh. Thte boy was pun
ished and the old maid left the next
:lay."-N. Y. Herald.

AMERICAN CONSERVATISM.
the Power and Influenfc of the Supreme
Court of the United States.
The supreme court is not an elective
body, and I suppose that might seem to
the English radical a sufllcient reason
for sweeping it awav. savs the Nine
teenth Century. The judges are ap
pointed for life by the president and
they are responsible to no nnnnlar tri
bunalnot even to public opinion.
They sit as a court of pure law, the
final authority from which in nil Amor.
lea there is no appeal. Their jurisdic
tion, strictly defined though it be, is
coextensive with the whole union. Tt.
Is the one instance In history in which
popular sovereignty, acknowledged as
supremo in the long run for every other
purpose and every other authority to
which it has delegated power, submits
to a master whom it did not appoint
and cannot remove and cannot escape.
Everybody submits; the states them
selves, sovereign as they still are for
certain purposes, submit: congress and
the president, the army and navy, the
people themselves, all submit.
In the hands of the supreme court de
mocracy itself, If It seeks to pass an un
constitutional law, U powerless. A
unanimous vote of the people, a unani
mous vote of the house and senate and
the approval of the president would not
make a statute law if this tribunal says
it la not a law. But do von ever lwr
of a proposal to abolish tho supremo
court? Why not? It is not only that
the court has been a great eourt of
great judges, its honesty mid ability
and wisdom alike recognized, but be
cause the Auicricun democru'-y bus the
good sense to see that, under a written
constitution like thut of the I'nitcd
Stales, atit h a tribunal Is eaHcntial to
the working of all Itja parts, and thut,
check and ull powerful check though It
be upon democracy, It la ulw a guar
anty to the Ami-rli-nn pco;,le that, in the
words of the preamble of their great
charter, justice ahull be established
and the blosin of Hlx'rty preserved
to themaelvea and Ih.'ir pttsterity.

that he has come to be "struck."
Classics.
An ancient controversy has recently
been revived in England by the ques
tion as io wnat really constitutes a
classic. Some define it as "an ancient
author, highly approved, who is an au
thority on the subiect ho treat of "
Goethe on the other hand, protested
against uie coulusioa of what is classic
with what is merely old, and declared
that all "healthy work." no mnttne
whether modern or ancient, is classic.
J. he French Academy, speaking ex
cathedra, defines classic authors aa
"those who have become models in any
language," whilo Sante-Beuve declares
that a true classic is an author who has
"enriched the human mind." Indeed,
no two opinions on the subject seem to
coincide, and what appears to be a
classic to one sort of people is refused
that Qualification by others.
SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY,

were brought from the east.
A peck of fresh lime in an open bos

but also making large use of home
grown herbB and flowers.

HOTEL SWINDLERS.
How They Ply Their' Arts in
London and Paris.
Extraordinary jobberies ' Executed bj
Daring Adventurers of Both Hexes
The Champion Hotel Thief
of the World.
Kotel-keepers are peculiarly liable to
be swindled. So many people of all
sorts are constantly coming and go
ing in the busy season that it is next to
impossible for the most careful man to
be sure beforehand that his guests are
all honest and straightforward, and
will not be found to have skedaddled
when the time comes for the little bill
to be collected, after they have fared
sumptuously for many days. The best
the sorely tried landlord can do is to
steer, as well as he may, the happy
middle course, without offending the
solvent by raising suspicions of their
solvency beforehand, and watching the
doubtful lest they suddenly disappear
in the night. And he may be trusted
to be pretty sure on the average to
make up for his losses by sticking
them on to those who do not pay up.
Two well-dressed young fellows, ap
parently strangers to each other, were
given rooms on the same floor of a cer
tain hotel. A day or two later one of
them said his trunk had been stolen,
and made such an outcry that, to get
rid of him, the unsuspecting landlord
paid him the value of his trunk and Its
contents, amounting to something like
11. The young mun left and preRnt
ly the other gentleman paid his bill and
also took hi departure. But in some
way the defrauded landlord learned lit
ter that when gentleman No. 2 left he
took with him not only his own trunk
but the one for which No. 1 had been
paid, concealed inside It.
From Margate there comes a tale of a
bold attempt by a "foreign countess"
to get the better of a hotel manager.
Aware that hotel keepers ore liable for
the property of guests np to a certain
amount, Irrespective of "negligence,"
the countess, when her bill was pre
sented to her, declared that alio had
been robbed of a valuable silver In-lt,
worth more than the amount of her
bill. Hut while the manager was du
biously discusaing the point there
Fitcped forward the head chiuiiberlnin
and quietly said that he hud heard thut
identical silver belt story twice pre
viouslyat Maute Carlo two years be
fore, and at KcarlHirough lust ycur. At
lioth places she had happened to he serv
ing as a housemaid. The countess
quic kly paid her bill and departed.
One of the most extraordinary rob
beries recorded is the one which was
i wectrd a short time ago at a hotel in
the Hue Sophia Germain, Farls. One
after noon a well-dressed man and wom
an arrived at the hotel in question and

requesting the waiter to call them at
