The dangers to ships of war from a
night attack of torpedoes are still slim
ulating inventive skill. Mr.. M. +. Silas,
OF Vienna, has devised another mode OF
illuminating the sea whenever the ap-
proach Of torpedo launches is possible.
His plan consists of shell containing
bottle full of a liquid capable Of giving
off phosphuretted hydrogen. Wetted
sponge surrounds the bottle, which is
broken by the discharge from the gun !:
the liquid, coming in contact with the
wet sponge, speedily generates gas,
which drives out two shoppers, and two
streams of illuminating matter are
poured upon the stream.

A female Justice of the Peace in
Wyoming Territory was obliged to
hear a case of a scandalous character,
in which her husband filled the very
unenviable position of defendant. She
sentenced him to be hanged by the
neck until dead, and was anxious TO
have the sentenc carried into effect at
once, until the attorneys explained to
her that she was sitting simply as an
examining court. She then held him
in bonds of $18, 100000, to await the
action of the Grand Jury, and she said
she would shoot the first man full of
holes that attempted to raise the sure
ties.

gonaad, added: "It is believed that
had her friends entirely encompassed
her, the lady's head would have come

mainmast preserved slender isthmus
of skin abaft the cervical vertebra."
