ALanghing PHILOSOPHER.

The career of the Industrial friendly
inn and Free Evangelist home" of St
Louis, is thus described bv a reporter OF
the Globe Democrat In he coOk-room
handling the pans and DOS, the reporter
found man who mighC appropriately be
called the ''Iau3 hing philosopher" so
merrily did he hum time to himself and
so heartily did he laugh during a con-
versation with ARCHER workman. He
had curious history. He had travelled
the world over. He had crossed the At
lantic sixty sight times and the Pacific
four times. He had been on le expedi-
ton to the north pole, had farmed on the
Nile and raised horses in Arabia. He
was a printer, and had made the first
English print in CoDstantirOple. lie
was telegraph operator, and had sent
the first despatch over The first wire that
went out from Cairo. He bad hunted
tigers in India. He was not only a
printer and telegrapher, but sailor JsOlcier,
preacher, draUghtsman, and teacher. He
had also travelled with a magic 'antern
show, and in a conversation with the re-
porter claimed to have been in London
with Artemus Ward, srd assisted him
in manipulating his ID .ic show. Two
winters ago he arrived in St. Louis, and
since then had learned the trade of
moulder and worked at it six months
age. subsequently he worked in
photograph establishment, and says he
could easily take pictures. Last summer
he worked as porter in dry goods house,
but when winter came his bad luck came
with it, and he could find nothing re-
to do. When the Industrial
Inn was opened he went there, and will
winter it through at this place, after
which he intends to go to India and join
an English regiment with which he
served, and from which he was honOrably
few years ago.

Hot Water for Injuries and Bruises.

The New York Medical Journal re-
ports this case: "The patient was en-
gsged in machine shop, and while his
hand was upon tie anvil of a trip ham.
mer, the hammer-weighing seven hun
dred pounds-fell. 1t 30 happened that
a file was on the anvil, and in this way
the force of the hammer was arrested
about half an inch before it reached its
bed When the hand was examined, it
was found that the whole palm was
mass of pulp. 1t was, however, placed
in hot water, and kept there for two
or three weeks, and then taken out and
dressed. In three months the patient
was fficiently we'll to leave the hospital,
and now-nine months after the accident
he is able to move the fingers and has
quite a useful hand. Bruises and in
iuries do much better when treated with
hot than cold water. The temperature
should be about one hundred and three
degrees Farenheit. Another case is re-
ported of compound fracture and dis
location of the ankle joint, in which the
proximal end of the first metatarsal bone
protruded from the foot. The dislOca-
tion was reduced and the foot placed
in hot water. At the end of week it
was taken out and dressed in the ordinary
manner. TIE foot is now doing well and
promises good result.

Gen. Sherman on the Signal Serice

In letter to the house committee ON
military affairs, Gen. Sherman says, in
regard to the bill to limit and fix the
signal service, thai he is opposed to it in
toto, be cause it adGs new permanent
bureau to the war department, already
overburdened with nine others, all of
which are in undue proportion to the
actual pesCe establishment, and damage
the army isself by wronefnlly charging
il with the extravagance thereby imposed
on it " co gress itself. The army is
supposed to be composed of armed men
and such accessories as provide for their
wants; but VIXEN these accessories be-
come more Numerous and powerful than
the armed body, we have an illustration
of the ''tail that wags the dog" The
merits of the signal bureau Gen. Sher-
man does not oppose, but he objects to
the army estimates, which are necessarily
very heavy, being charged with the
cost of maintaining such body of men.
They may call them colonies, majors,
sergeants Iand privates, but that does
not make them soldiers. He suggests
that, if congress enacts a law to make a
permanent corps of signal officers as
part of the regular army, it is better to
take the officers of the army now detailed
for this duty, and allow an equal number
of new officers to be promoted and ap-
pointed 10 perform the duties With the
troops, which are now neglected by rea-
son of detachment on this so-called
temporary duty.

IS Anchor Iee.o

Prof. Hind, of St. John, New Bruins
wick, in a recent paper addressed to his
government, gives a description of the
remarkable effect of "anchor ice" on
the coast of Labrador and Newfoundland.
1t is thus summarized by correspond
ent of the Toronto Globe: "Anchor ice
is a form of ice which occurs both in
fresh and sea water, and is known to the
Germans under the name of 'Grundeis.'
to TIE French Canadians under the name
of Frazoo' and to the old sedertary
zeal hunters under the name of 'Lelly.'
Anchor ice forms in rapid rivers, and has
no. unfrequently been described. 1t is,
however, on the borders of the arctic
current, where sea water rapidly cOols in
the fall of the year, along our coasts that
anchor ice manifests itself in peculiar
manner. During the first cold snap, at
the beginning of winter, say toward the
middle of November, and early IN De-
cember, the sedentary sealers often had
small spiculae, or needles of ice, formed
on the eerks of their seal-nets which are
set in eight, ten, and sometimes fifteen
fathoms of wafer. If the seal-nets are
not soon taken up when the corks near
the bottom begin to show the ice-needles
forming about them, they are liable to be
lost. The spicuIe accumulate very rap
idlv. and being lighter than water, they
will enable the corks to raise the whole
net to the surface, and if the anchors are
not frozen to the bottom of the sea- the
net is liable to be drifted away by the
tides. 1t sometimes happens that the
anchers of the seal-Dets are frozen to the
bottom. and when forcibly detached they
bring I'M masses of frozen sand, and this
from depth of fifty and sometimes sew
enty feet below the bottom of the sea.
In other words the bottom of the sea Is
frozen.' This remarkable phenomenon
was inexplicable till Despretz showed
that sea water in cooling does not follow
the ordinary law which governs fresh
water when it cools from forty degrees
to the freezing point. But sea water
increases in density regularly as it cools,
hence the coldest water is always at the
bottom. Sea water always freezes at
twenty-seven degrees Fahrenheit, or five
below the freezing point of water; hence,
as the coastal waters cool in the fall on
the Labrador and northeast Newfound-
land shores the bottom layer of water
acquires, during a cold snap, tempera-
ture eff five degrees below the freezing
point of fresh water, and from every
rough surface, such as stones, bits of sand,
seal-net corks. seal nets themselves
minute spieula of ice form, first at and
near the bottom, where the water is cold
eat, and these very rapidly accumulate,
