To Sail Under tlie Sea.
When we read Jules Verne's
i emarkablc book "Twenty Thou
sand Leagues Under the Sea," wo
marvel at the inventive powers of
that great novelist. But now it
seems that what Verne wrote in
fietion is actually to he accom
plished in fact. They arc construct
ing in Bucharest a submarine ves
sel which, it is claimed, will accom
plish what no other craft has ever
been found equal to. The plan
contemplates :i vessel capable of
moving under water for twelve
hours without any removal for air.
Steam is the motor employed and
the speed reckoned upon is great
er than that attained b sailing
vessels. Practically, the manage
ment consists in sinking the vessel
by opening certain valves, but to
return to the surface involves more
complex operations. An electric
light, which is to be supplied, will
it is ascertained, render objects
fairly distinguishable. For re
newal of air it is not necessary
that the vessel rise to the surface,
the means resorted.to for this pur
pose being an apparatus that can
be sent up, and which, bT working
a pump, forces air into suitable
receivers".

The Tallest Structure on Eartli
The white, tall, plain shaft of
the Washington monument is foot
by
foot daily rising skyward,
gcnurauuii 01 iiuiuutu, air untu
ning to be proud of it. Apart
from its unique character as an ar
chitectural wontler, modern science
proposes to utilize it for the public
benefit. The signal officers expect
to have a permanent station al its
summit, and its officers say that
observations of the air and atmos
pheric movements taken at an alti
tude of 500 feet, will be of great
value. Observations are taken, of
course, at far greater altitudes
than this, but the gradual slope of
even the most precipitous moun
tains and the presence of large
masses of rock near the observa
tory create surface currents, even
on the mountain hcights,and inter
fere with the study of the phe
nomena of the higlfcr levels of the
atmosphere. It has often been
proposed to institute a series of ex
periments by means of captive bal
loons, but. the expense of sucli
work prevented the plans being
carried out. At the time of. the cen
tennial it was proposed to erect a
skeleton lower to the height of
1,000 feet, in Fairmount Park.
Had this been done, the signal
officers would have utilized the
observatory for the benefit of
meteorological science, but the
tower stopped at 300 feet. The
signal officers say it would not be
practicable to build a tower 1,000
feet high or even higher, and that
the erection of such a tower would
be of great service.
The monument is now 2!'0 feet
high. The original design con
templated ajheight of .100 feet, but
at a meeting of the commissioners
two years ago, when it was decided
to resume work, it was voted to
make the monument the loftiest
artificial structure in the world.
The commissioners examined the
highls of all the noted monuments,
towers, pagodas, spites, buildings
i and flagpoles, and found that to
safely distance all rivalry a height
of 3o0 feet would be necessary,
It was therefore "determined to
complc the shaft on this plan, and
the drawings were modified to that
end. What was the surprise and
gratification of the commissioners
to find subsequently that the new
proportions of the shaft as now
adopted were exactly those of an
Egyptian obelisk.
At the recent Bepublicau con
vention in Delaware, while the
tumult was at its height, some fun
loving Democrats in the rear of
the room had their attention drawn
to a negro delegate just in Yront
of them who was craning his long
neck to see what was going on and
trying to hear something amid the
babel of noise by which he could
take his bearings and learn what
the convention was about, "Wliy
don't you get up and say some
thing?" said they. "You have as!
much right to talk as anybody
here." It did not take much of this
persuasion to bring the African
delegate to his feet. lie strode
into the aisle, and lifting up his
voice sang eut: "Dey told me
when dey brung me down heah
dat we was gwine to hab hominy.
Where is dat hominy? Not a bit
ob hominy hab I seen since
I've been heah." At this juncture
Mr. Smithers began to deliver his
decision, and the uproar subsided

Diplomatic Hitch.
Constantinople, Sept. 10. A
difficult- in regard to the final
signing of the draft of the Anglo
Turkish military hinges upon the
question whether Turkish troops, ;
having arrived at Port Said, shall j
ing arrived at Port Said, shal
be allowed to disembark or be re
quired to wait instructions from
1 I
General Wolscley. The porte
1 . I
claims it nas proven us sincerity
by. proclaiming Arabi Pasha a
rebel, and that it is justified in ex
pecting an immediate signing.
Now England has the temerity to
turn round and accuse the porte
of disloyalty, because the porte
claims the right to land
troops at Port Said. Ileie mat
ters rest pending Lord Gran
ville's instructions. Meanwhile
Dervish Pasha and taker Pasha
have been ordered to defer their de
parture until the matter is set
tled. The proclamation against
Arabi Pasha has produced consid
erable agitation among Arabs,
who generally regaad Arabi Pasha
as the saviour of Egypt. It is be
lieved Arabi Pasha will promul
gate a counter-proclamation against
the sultan. A dispatch from
Egypt states that Arabi Pasha has
expelled all Turks and Circassians
from his camp.
Ravage-; of Cholera.
Manila, Sept. 10. One hun
dred and fifty-two deaths from
cholera occurred here 3'esterday,
and 274 in surrounding villages.
All the victims are natives.
Odessa, Sept. 10. The authori
ties here are taking precautions to
prevent the introduction of cholera.
All vessels arriving from Egypt
arc quarantined.
She'd Arrived.
There's a story of a woman up
in Michigan who was Jost in the
woods five days, nearly starved to
death, was frozen at night, was
chased by wolves and scared by
snakes, and when she got. out of
the jungles and reached home at
last, nobody had missed her.
"Shadow of death! But she was
the maddest woman. Ves daugh
ter, you maj just bet your bangs
thev knew she had got home! Oh,
yes; they knew it.'
"The president's flag" is u new
device, originating with Secretary
Bill Chandler. He holds that the
president, being commander-in-
chief of the navy ought to have a
special flag, as the various admi
rals have flags -for their respective
grades. The New York Sun
makes this fitting reply to that
claim: "The president, never acts
as commander-in-chief on ship
board. If he did, it might be
well enough for him to have a
fl:ig. In fact, however, the very
first use to which the president's
flag has been put is purely private.
It flies at the mainmast of a gov
ernment steamer which he cm
ploys, not for government 'pur
poses, but for his own convenience,
as if it were his own individual
property. A flag used in tins man
ner is too much like the standard
of the English sovereign which is
hoisted on the queen's yacht. We
do not want cither that sort of a
flag or that sort of a yacht in this
country. The best yacht for the
president to use in traveling from
Washington to New York is a Pull
man car; and the only signal there
employed by him should be a
ticket duly bought and paid lor."
