The English and Canadian press almost
universally rejoice over the election of Harrison.
In Philadelphia where protection has
heretofore ruled supreme, the democrats
cut the republican majority down more
than 12,000.
Perpetual roses will notcUind severe told
weather without protection. If grown
the protection should be applied early in
the fall.

The bed of the ocean, says a foreign

County roads and the advertising col
umns of many papers are beginning to be

a special point of "working the granger" at

full of glowing assurances that the obdurate
ballot swingers have made a mockery.
They suggest the patent medicine illumi
nations that sometimes adorn newspaper
interiors of before taking and after taking

figures.
We frequently hear of buildings destroy
ed by fire which originated in the ash-box.
This box should be lined with sheet iron,
and set at lea ten feet from any combus
tible object. It should have a tight cover,
that no sparks may be blown from It, It
is best to have one-half the cover hinged
to the other half and held down by a but
ton. Even then ashes should be searched
for fire be'ore they are put In the box ;
this Is a matter about which one cannot be
too careful. The top of the box should be
tight so that the ashes may be kept dry,
It Is said there are at le ast twenty re

and this gives the Captain a dead thing.
The well-known photographer, An
schuetz of Lissa, has for some years been
experimenting with photographs of the
flight of cannon balls from the moment of
their projection to their striking the target
or object a'med at. Last month on the try
ing grounds of the Uruson Works, near
Buckau, he demonstrated the perfection of
his studies. He succeeded in obtaining
remarkable and highly Interesting results.
His plates were submitted to the expert,
Professor Dr. Koenig of the Berlin Uni
versity, who was perfectly able to make
therefrom the desired practical calculations.
He established the fact that the projectile
thus photographed had a velocity of 400
meters a second, and that the duration of
the light thrown on the photographic plate
did not exceed the ten thousandth part of
a second.
