A Wonderful Torpedo.

An American correspondent writes The OK
pertinent with a TORPEDO was witnessed by q num-
Der of Congressman AID was a wonderful success.
As soon as the signal TO start was given through
the proper knob, the torpedo rushed through the
water st an eIghtlnot gait. her black back just
visible above the water. She was open to the
slightest touch, backing and then again going
ahead, and running a close shave round a buoy
with marvellous ~ielicacy. After she had been
thus navigated al around the harbour, she was
headed with fullsteam, at a twelve or fourteen
knot gait for an I'D raft, loaded with barrels, and
as soon as she hal fairly bolted into it, Captain
Lay touched the exploding knob, and in an in
slant there was g terrific explosion, and the air
was filed with ten thousand fragments of the
wreck, the most curious part Of the scene was
the unconcerned manner in which the little mon
ster emerged from amid the destruction she had
wrought, absolutely unframed and still obedient
to control. The re'Olution which will be effected
by this wonderful prpedo will certainly mark a
new era in naval mrefare. Ii will create greater
changes by far than John Ericsson's Ironclads and
monitors, and will enable lands, such as Austria
liza and America, with long lines of coast and a
comparatively sFTe population, to defend them
selves from invasion at a reasonably slight ex-
pense. CaptainLay says he could sink a vessel
like the English ronclad 'Temeraire,' which cost
a million sterling, in twenty minutes. Ii has
been suggested tha the ironclad could protect
herself with chain lettings held out on long spars.
But if necessary, lalf a dozen torpedoes could be
sent out, each in aIother's wake, and they would
soon reach the nam objective point of attack.
The cost of thes, marvellous little devil fishes is
about % 900 iollar each. 1t may be noted, by
the way, too, that a vessel steered in this way can
be made very useful in saying life by carrying
life-lines to vessds in distress. The torpedo can
be steered from the shore with unfailing precision
through the very heaviest surf"

4 paper which vas recently read before the
London Pharmaceutical Society contained, in sub
stance, the following interesting statement in re-
gard to the beneficial results OF the Eucalyptus.
About q century ago there was in the Campagna,
about three miles from Rome, 4 village containing
various churches and a monastery, which were
abandoned on account OF the prevailing malaria.
Up to 1870 the churches there were in ruins.
Six years ago two French Trappists planted the
Eucalyptus gLo5uius in the village. some of the
trees having now attained g height of thirty feet.
For the hast two years the monks have inhabited
the ruined convent without suffering the least in
convenience, using from time to times as 8 febrlfuge
decoction made from the leaves Of the tree. It
alisn botanists and physicians are urging the gov
eminent TO plant the Eucalyptus in quantity in
the Campagna. believing that by its means these
deadly plains may be restored to that Furnishing
condition they had once attained during the per-
iods Of early Roman history.

Turkeys Troubles.

The riot and massacre in Sal0nlca show
at once the intensity of religious preju-
dices among the people, and the feeble
ness of the civil power. Herein is the
greatest danger to the Turkish Empire
III Europe. The population is not only
heterogeneous, it is absolutely hostile.
It is hopelessly divided, because of the
deep-rooted religious fanaticism, which
accords, also, with race lines, and seems
to intensity the hatreds which the Ma
homedans and Christians maintain in a
robust condition. Take the pressure of
the foreign powers away, and the Empire
would be broken into pieces by the force
of it's internal discords. The insured
ton in Bosnia and Herzegovina is no
more than an organized movement of
the Christian and Sclavic element to re-
lieve itself of the Mahomedan and Turk
ish presence and power. The one is
just as capable of bloodshed and cruelty
as the other. We are prepared to be-
ieve any story of atrocities committed
by either OF the belligerent forces or the
people who sympathize with them.
It is the hourly danger of just such
outbreaks as that which happened In
Salonica last week that makes it vital to
the Turkish power. to come to an under
standing with it's Christian population,
and with the foreign powers which sup
port their demands. for political and
civil rights and at least quasi-independ-
ence. Unless some composition of these
troubles is speedily effected, either by
concessions on the part Of the Porte, OF
by the active Intervention of foreign
power and the armed occupation of the
disturbed territory, such bloody riots as
that of ESalonica will be repeated, and
upon a more extended scale. Every
days delay increases the difficulty OF
negotiating peace, increases the exas-
peration of feeling among the people,
and makes a general war probable, If
not inevitable Cincinnati CONNER

Reecher and Bowen.

Plymouth church, Brooklyn, was the
scene of another disgraceful row the
other evening. There were present
Messrs. Beecher, Bowen, father and
son, Shearman, Howard and Ward, be-
sides many others, including Mrs.
Stowe. The object of the meeting was
to consider the report recommending
the expulsion of Bowen for prevarica-
ton and other such conduct" In the
course of the tempestuous proceedings,
Mr.. Beecher declared that all his
troubles with Bowen grew out of bust
ness matters-never a word about
GO moral turpitude," which is the latest
name for it. Thereupon Bowen facing
the audience declared that no man but a
lunatic could imagine that he could
trump up charges against Beecher. He
would get into jail In twenty-four hours
if he did. After little more of this
sort of talk, Mr.. Beecher exclaimed,
g I am charged with monstrous crime, .
whereupon Ward, who is the editor of
the Tndependeqat, chimed in, /" and you
are guilty of it." That was the match
that fred the mine. An explosion fol-
lowed which blew Ward out doors in a
twinkling. ''Put him out, +" was the
cry, and out he was hustled, barely
having time to file demurrer against
exclusion, reminding the Infatuated
brethren that he appeared as counsel
for Bowen, and had right to make the
remark, but "get out was the re-

4 ThunderbOlt Through a Wild Goose.

During thunder storm yesterday a
flock of wild geese were seen fying
nerthward. They whirled and changed
their course many times, but turned to
the north after each change. When over
the corner of Tenth and Felix streets a
streak of lightning was seen to strike
downward from large cloud, and one
of the geese dropped as if shot. An OBJ
server ran to the spot where the goose
was seen to fall, expecting, no doubt,
wild goose for dinner. Upon arriving
on the spot he found what, without a
question, was one of the most curious
freaks that that most subtle of fluids
ever played. The goose had a SCARED
and burned hole extending from the back
down through the body, there being
no question but that the electric bolt
passed through the flying bird. The
feathers were somewhat singed, though
not SO much as might have been expect
ed. The bird was shown to several per-
sons as curiosity, our reporter among
the number, all agreeing as to the man
ner of its death. Joseph mo. Her

Man who was Too Much for the Bears.

Senator Foster, who lived for many
years at Brighton, Vt, though not a
large man, had great strength. Being
il the woods one day, he saw two bear
cubs lying on the ground, with their
noses turned toward each other. He
had gun, but he wanted them alive.
Placing his gun in position where he
could swing it under his arm, after he
had selected his prey, he crept softly to
the sleeping animals, and suddenly
grasped each by the nose. He expected
in this manner to hold them so firmly
that they could not squeal, but one of
them slipped from his grasp. Nothing
aaunted, Jack caught him by the hind
leg. secured his gun, and started for
home on the run.
The cub whose nose was free set up a
loud cry, and the old mother soon made
her appearance. Jack heard her crash
ing through the bush after him. 1t was
but fifty rods to the clearing, and he had
but ten rods the start. It was a case of
life and death, but he wouldn't give up
the cubs. There was a high log fence
just in the edge of the clearing, and for
tunately large log lay alongside. With
one tremendous bound Jack leaped on
the log. Another muscular bound car
ried him over the fence into the field.
The bear was on the fence as soon as
Jack struck the ground. But she hest
tated moment about following him in
the open field, and he sped away so fast
that she finally turned back into the
woods, and Jack escaped.
On another occasion this Nimrod was
in the woods unarmed, one March day,
when the snow was six feet deep, and
the surface 50 soft that no one could walk
on it without snow shoes, a pair of which
Jack had on. A bear that had just
awaked from his winter nap made dive
at him. He leaped away from the brute,
but went deep into the snow, and bruin
was upon him. The battle began, man
and beast rolling over each other in tine
desperate struggle. AS often as the bear
tried to seize him with her teeth, or
overpower him with the fatal hug, Jack
would always save himself by kicking
her on the nose with the snow shoes.
Finally, with one fierce plunge of
claws and teeth, the brute fastened upon
Jack, and failing to hold him, tore off
almost all his clothing at single swoop;
but, fortunately, just at that moment he
hit the tip of her nose most powerful
kick. A blow on the end of the nose
causes pain SO acute as TO disable bear
for time, and it had that effect in this
case. The brute gave back little, and
while she was wincing under the pain,
Jack regained his feet and got several
steps away. His assailant started after
him again, but the snow was soft and she
almost buried herself atevery step, while
Jack walked on the surface and escaped.
So his SHOW shoes, which rendered
him clumsy fighter, finally saved his
him. -,Spr5qagtietd Rt publican.
