M A young man Of music
al turn was shot and killed in
North Carolina the other day be-
cause he persisted in playing
"My Grandfather's Clock" in
slow meter. This, we hope, will
be a lesson to all grandfathers to
keep their clocks regulated, and
on no account to allow them to
run too slow. The musical tai
ent of our country must be fos-
tered and cultivated, instead of
being killed off to slow music.

~ We arc indebted to the
Scientific american forspccimen
of Uranine, the newest and per-
haps the most remarkable OF
the aniline coloring substances
extracted from coal tar. Its
coloring power is astonishing;
a single grain will impart a
marked color to nearly five hun
dred gallons Of water. a most
interesting experiment, which
anybody may try, consists III
sprinkling a few atoms of IRA
nine upon the surface of water
in a glass tumbler. Each atom
Immediately sends down through
the water what appears to be a
bright green rootlet; and the
tumbler soon looks as if it were
crowded full Of beautiful plants.
The roetlets now begin TO en-
large, spread and combine, until
we have a mass Of soft green
colored liquid. Viewed by
transmitted light, the color chan
ges to bright golden or amber
hue; while Il combination Of
green and gold will be realized,
according TO the position IN
which the glass is held. The
editors of the Scientific Amera-
can are sending out specimens,
free Of charge, to all their read
ers. The subscription to the
paper is $500 for a year, or
$1.60 half year; and a better in
