Austria captured her Emperor: The
Empress is the youngest daughter Of
Duke Macmillan Joseph of Bavaria,
and sister of the ex-Queen Sophia of
Naples. Frances Joseph was to have
been afiianced to the Princess Sophia,
to make acquaintance with whom he
went 10 make visit to his uncle's cas-
tie of Possenhoffen, where his four
youns lady cousins had been born and
brought up. The princess Elizabeth,

lady was told that she was to stay with

swell Damp''-IIOw TO Ascertain Its
Presence.

bEN~NhNNs
The number of fatal accidents to
persons descending into wells contain
mated with carbonic gas or choke damp
has been unusually large of late,
In Northern Texas and Kansas at least.
Carbonic acid exists in various shapes
naturally, but Its precise character was
never discovered until 1857, when DIR.
Black investigated the subject. He
called 1t "liXed air." and found it eXis-
ting naturally in limestone aud mag
nesia, from which 1t Is expelled by
acid and heat. IL is fifty per cent
heavier than common air, and so nat
urally collects in wells and other low
places. 1t will eXtinguish flame, even
when the proportion of the gas mixed
with air is but one-fourth of the whole;
so that the well known test of lower
ing n lighted candle or other burning
article into well before any one en-
tiers is a pretty safe test. DR.. Clarkson,
however, mentions cases where persons
have become senseless Immediately on
descending into wells where flame had
not been extinguished. Persons ren-
dered insensible by inhaling the gas
are restored by dashing cold water

may serve to prolong their lives, not
only by the effect of the water upon
their persons, but by the amount of
fresh mir carried down with the water,
and the amount of carbonlG acid alb

from wells by the explosion of gunpow-
der in them, lowering vessel contain
ing burning charcoal in them, or any
mode that will force fresh air into
them in sufficient quantities to dissi-
pate the poison. This often requires
repeated efforts and some hours of
time. Hot weather promotes the
formation of this gas, and, as running
water absorbs good deal of it, the
danger Is greatest in dry wells, or
those containing but little water, hav-
ing but little current. AS regards
it may be said that it is
certainly dangerous to descend into
