ß 'N J XCE more the pistol ot the assas sin has brought anarchy and the anarchist to the cynosure of the world’s eyes. The red emblem of the order is once more subjected to the scru tiny of the world's police powers, and once more the question arises: What is anarchy? What is this hydra headed thing against which the searing by tire of the bleeding necks is no longer effective? The question may be answered in a paradox—pe haps must be answered so. Anarchy, bro ; lly speaking, is at once the gentlest and the most violent of social remedies. Its apostles have been gentle dreamers on the one hand and scourges, armed with tire and sword, on the other. In its advancement the individualist and tbe assassin have been coupled in the public mind. The man who would do right simply because it is right, and the fiend who, conceiving all society to be wrong, would add one more gigantic wrong to the whole in order to set all right again. In a word, anarchy, of whichever type, means an abolition of the government of man by man and the constitution of a society without government. It is not a new idea in men. It has been contended that the principle antedates the reforma tion. But as •"anarchy” the movement belongs to the times of I’roudhon In France, who voiced it in tbe mildness of the philosopher, and to Hess, the Ger man. who In 1843 flung its red banner to the breeze under which the Ilussian, Prince Kropotkin, came later as an ex- ponent of the terrorism for which oue Our ruler Is our enemy.

It appears that “the best work of the large gas engine gives a thermal efficiency substantially the same as that of tbe very best steam en gine. while It employs a fuel which Is considerably cheaper.” In order to compensate the effects of temperature, which tend to alter the rate of a chronometer, the balance Is made of two kinds of metal. When steel and sheet brass are combined for this purjsise. the compensation Is complete ouly for two fixed temperatures, such, for Instance, as 0 deg and 00 deg. Be tween these* temperatures there Is an uncorrected error, called tbe secondary error of the ebrouometer. The correc tion of tbe secondary error has always been a subject of great luterest to watchmakers. By combining various metals, the error has been nearly elim inated In the best Instruments, and re cently Charles Edward Guillaume pre sented to the Paris Academy of Sci ences a note explaining a new method of entirely correcting the secondary er ror by the use of balances composed of a nickel steel alloy devised by him self.
