THE WORID N MINIATURE.-Mr.
CRUDE, maker OF wax images IN New
York. has constructed what Is claimed TO
be the largest globe of the world, show
ing the ranges of mountains and other
pecuiarties of the surface Of the earth
in relief, now in existence Is diameter
IS four feet and about inch, the scale
being l in 10000, 900. The range of
even the Himalayas would not DC visible
upon this globe if the same scale were
adopted for the elevations as for the map,
and accordingly the relief Is made upon
a scale which eXaggerates heights twenty
times The oceans, seas and rivers are
colored blue; the continents arc yellow:
the glaciers. ice-bergS and floating cakes
of ice white. Plains and mountain
ranges are clearly shown, and every part
of the world is exhibited in Its true char
acter. Red, black and white lines cross
the globe to indicate the isothermal belts,
the variations of the magnetic needle, the
date line where ships correct their
logs by skipping from Saturday TO Mon
dav, and vice versa. and other facts OF
ike character The map has been cor
rected in the light of the latest discover
les down to two months ago. The
northern coast Of Siberia has been much
altered in the aliases by the Nordenskeldt
expedition, the ships sailing in deep water
over places marked as 500 miles inland,
and being compelled to 90 hundreds Of
miles around promontories, etc. The
globe is made Of wood. The relief is
formed BY wax. Mr.. CRUDE has been
two years in perfecting his globe, and
Chief-Justiee DAILY and other geographers
have lately been giving attention TO 1t.

SAS FRAScIsoo, December 80.
Francis W. Bamber, aged 4 years, was
killed near North Point last evening by q
pile Of lumber falling on him.
There was . large attendance at the Pa
vilion last evening TO witness the opening
Of the six-day pedestrian match. At 1880
the women's match for two hours began, in
which eight contestants started. The first
prize was won by the Indian girl, who made
i3 81 miles ; Miss Barrett took the second,
with 10 81 miles. and Alice Doniey the
third, with IL 2-7. Just before the close
Of the race Sadie Donley, who was next to
her sister, rolled gracefully over on the
track in a fainting fit. The Indian girl had
evidently made q strong impression upon
her, a., on being carried to her tent, she
went into Mysteries, alleging that that ''big
Injun" was after her.
At 10 p. N. the men started. There were
"a Of them, including q number who par
ticipated in the recent matches-among
them Mcintyre, Scott, Murdoch, Collins,
who walked from San Francisco to New
York in 81 days, an Apache Indian called
Bob for short, and Guerrero, who was the
leading man in the late match against
horses. The latter led IN the first mile ;
time, $50. The match promises to excite
considerable interest.
At 1890 to-day Mcintyre was leading,
with . score OF 20 miles ; Indian Bob next,
with 65 miles Murdoch close behind him,
and the others ranging between so and 60
miles.
The Board Of Education last night
adopted the schedule Of salaries Of teach
ers substantially as agreed upon in the

THE Hon. Hugh McCulloch is right in
saying that what Is needed in the United
States to increase the circulation Of small
silver coin is the withdrawal Of small
notes, but the craze Of the infationists in
favor Of paper money induces a general
clinging TO all forms Of national currency
now in circulation. There is really no need
now Of the continued existence Of the
smaller denominations Of paper money,
and they ought all to be extinguished as

Three more bodies have been washed
ashore near the scene Of the Tay bridge
disaster. All mails have been recovered.
The newspapers are unanimous in demand
ing that . searching inquiry be made into
the canse Of the accident. The Govern
ment has sent two inspectors to ascertain
the particulars, and and has also directed
a formal inquiry to be made into the occur
rence. Divers have thus far been unable to
discover anything OF the wrecked train.
They will make another effort to-day.
The place where the train sank is full Of
quicksand, and II the bodies Of the dead
are not recovered within a few days they
will be embedded beyond recovery.
The official report Of the North British
Railroad says: The falling girders made q
very clean break from the portion stand
ing. Almost the only signs Of the smash
are the ends Of the rails on which the train
ran which are torn ssunder. The rails
remaining are wrenched out Of their chairs
for . few yards. The severe gale Of Sun
day extended to Bos Castle, Edinburgh,
Shanvar, Gresnoek, Yarmouth, Liverpool
and Plymouth. Much damage was done
on land and to shipping, including the loss
Of the French bark and eight men.

arrive in New York to-day or tomorrow.
Extensive preparations are being made by
Irish- Americans in the East to give him an
enthusiastic welcome, not more IN account
Of his devotion TO the afflicted people OF
Ireland than for his great ability and lofty
patriotism. He visited this country in 1876,
