EXTRAORDINARY WALKING EAT.-At
Ulica, n. Y, last week, the extraordinary
feat OF walking 100 consecutive hours was
successfully and salts factorily accomplished
by young man named Miller. AS the Time

public sensibly increased, and reached its
climax on Saturday evening, during the most
of which the hall was crowded, and the latter
portion OF the time almost to suffocation lie
showed less signs Of fatigue and breaking
down on Saturday than on the previous day,
and walked with more apparent ease most OF

GAS LKAKAGE.-1n report of the New
River Water Company, Professor Spencer, in
speaking OF the corrosion OF iron mains and
the effect of gas leakage, states that it is COM
puted that there are 1000 miles of gas mains
laid under the roadways of London, from
sorbed into the earth, the far larger proper
tion of which could be saved by improved
conduits As a matter of economy, its re-
suits would pay dividend of five per cent
on the gross capital of the London companies.

the extraordinary excess of carbureted hydro

Hot SPRINGS OF ARKANsAs.-A correspon-
dent of the Charleston IS. g. Mercury thus
describes the Hot Springs of Arkansas:
The Springs are situated in narrow val
ley about three miles in length, winding
among the hills. There are two very plea
SAINT hotels, with numerous cottages on each
side of the valley. The springs are on the
eastern slope OF the hills, at the foot of
which runs a small stream or rocky branch.
There are over a dozen streams of different
degrees of heat; the two largest are hot
enough to boil eggs or scald hog. The
character of the rocks on the side of the
mountains are evidently volcanic, and large
dark broken masses have every appearance
OF lava. The water is conducted from the
springs TO reservoirs on the tops of the bath
houses, so arranged that you may have the
douse, shower, plunge or yapor bath, just
you please. The water is quite soft, and as
clear and transparent as crystal When You

the heat, but you gradually get aecust toned to

PRONOUNCED SNOB.-The question, ''what is
a snob." is likely TO be satsfac torily answered
through the discussion now being carried on
among the military men and hotel keepers in
New York. 1t appears that Gov Morgan,
having invited one of his staff, who also kept
hotel, to the Prince of Wales dinner, re-
called the invitation, because he was assured
that 1t was not etiq uette for Prince to dine
at the same table with hotel keeper. The in
suited hotel keeper has resigned his military
commission.

an old man, named John Lewis, in the back
on Thursday evening last, in the house of
