Carrying His Skeleton Outside.
[From the Saturday Review.l

ltrom tne saturday REVIEW.
The tortoise has not accomplished the
feat of taking off it's flesh and sitting in
It's bones, but it has done the next thing
to 1t. 1t IS the first example of skele-
ton brought to the surface; the back is
incapable of movement, and the scales
with which q less ambitious reptile
is content have developed into the horny
shield which covers it, while the bones
OF the breast develop into box capable
of containing the creature, head and legs
and all. In fact, If we belonged to q
past generation when insane plays upon
words were taken for wit, we should
have probably said that the chest of the
tortoise Is box to hold It's trunk. The
horny integument of the Schild-krote,
"shleld toad" as our Teutonic brethren
so graphically call him, is scarcely less
rich III associations than his family
name, suggesting, among a crowd of
other memories. the high tortoise-shell
comb, short waists, whist and pump
room manners of the beauties of the re-
gency. The arrangement of wearing
the skeleton outside and packing the
whole body away in the case formed by
1t. Is convenient, but not an absolute
protection against foes. The 1.-the and
willy panther, for instance, has habit
OF inserting his paw into the opening
left for the protrusion of the head, and
extracting the animal. The turtle,
moreover, is at disadvantage when
turned on his back, which is a favorite
method of securing those who come
ashore to lay their eggs. Against ordi-
nary dangers the thick shield is very
useful safeguard; but the impossibility
OF receiving any impression through the
skin of the body must have its disad-
Vantages, too. How. for instance, does
a tortoise manage in those cases which a
COW provides against by rubbing post !?
Surprising it to be possible for him to
suffer from any such Inconvenience, he
would be even worse off than medieval
knight armed cap-G-pie, beneath whose
steel panoply specimen OF the domestic
lOutuC had secreted itself.

AN ERA OF PROSPERITY

The Boston Commercial Bulletin
takes occasion IN a recent issue, IN COM
menting on a recent lecture given by
the English historian Edward A. Free
man, to draw friendly comparison Of
the financial conditions of the two great
English speaking nations at the present
time. The excess of exports of gold
from Great Britain during the last nine
months has been about $40, 600, 900, as
against $50, 900, 600 during tue years 1879
and 1880, and still the westward flow OF
wealth continues despite the efforts of
the Bank of England. The labors of the
latter institution are badly handicapped
by the fact that Europe is constantly
purchasing our products, both agricul-
tural and manufacturing, and the
amount of gold necessary TO settle the
American grain and provision bills VIII
far oyertop the annual interest of gold
paid to holders of American securities
and foreign investors which is estimated
at S50,000,000. The Bulletin says:
1.-The export of goods sufficient to meet
this interest alone is considerable, to say
nothing of the quantity necessary to
liquidate portions of the principal from
time to time; yet it seems inconsiderable
in view of our magnificent resources,
rapid national development, and con-
stantly increasing volume of selling
products abroad, perforce England's
weakening hold upon the worlds
markets and the United States
strengthening hold upon the same. Ing
lands present effort to retain her old
commercial power is confession thai
she is not unmindful of the fact that she
is unable to cope with the United States
in some respects, and that the new ma
ton in America is her sharp and sue
cessful competitor. European countries
may prohibit this and that article of
American production; they may retaliate
In one form or another; but if American
goods take the lead of all others in the
worlds markets, the influx of gold from
Europe will continue and the Pactollan
stream will flow to enrich the nation.

UNCLAIMED MONEY.

Since the postal monoy-order system
was established seventeen years ago by
act OF congress, there has accumulated
at the New York postoffice, which is the
general headquarters of the system, the
sum of 1895, 1919 in unclaimed
orders. This accumulation of nearly two
million dollars is largely due to the mis-
carriage Of senders' orders, or to their
loss by the sender, or by the payee.
Many of the lost or miscarried orders
might have been paid if the payee or the
RENTER had applied to his postmaster
for duplicate order. Perhaps it has
been through ignorance, perhaps
through carelesness, that this had not
been done, but usually the remitter APP
pears to suppose that the payee has re-
ceiyed his money, and, on the other
hand, the payee thinks it has not been
sent. The surplus fund is increasing
all the while and the authorities are in a
quandary in regard to the final disposal
OF 80 large an amount of unclaimed
money. Congress may pass bill to
cover the fund into the treasury,
but as some of the stray orders have
been paid to the owners after a lapse of
five or six years, provision will have to
be made for payment should any Of the
orders be presented after the money has
been disposed of.

Hubert Boens, of the Belgium Academy
of Medicine, the author of numerous
works on smallpox and vaccination,
presided, and was supported by Prof.
Adolf Vogt, NJ. D., of Berne Univer-
sity; D. 81. Oldtmann, Of Cologne; DR..
Waltz, of Frankfort-on-O Oder; DR.. II.

burg; DR.. G. Pigeon, of Fourchambault,
France; Mr. ". Tebb, of London; Mr..
Thomas Baker, and many others. Dur
ing the seven sittings of the congress,
about twenty-five formal addresses and
papers were delivered under various sec
tons, dealing with the scientific, statis-
teal, social, political, and historical as
poets of the subject. The tone of the
speeches made and papers read was uni
versally condemnatory of the theories
for multiplying artificial diseases as a
means Of promoting the public health
inst Of removing the sources and hot
bed Z disease by sanitary measures,
whicL could alone annihilate smallpox
and other epidemics. Statistics show
that vaccination has proved Of value in
superinducing q mild form Of variola
when contracted by vaccinated subjects
and in reducing mortality therefrom;
such being the record, it is only natural
that mankind should cling to the prac-
tice of vaccination until a more effica-
cious safeguard is devised.

UNDERGROUND TELEGRAPHY.

The remarkable advance of electricity
as vehicle OF communication, and the
rapid growth of the telegraphic business
of the country, has led to a new diff
Guilty especially manifest in large cities
where important thoroughfares are OBJ
structed by networks of aerial wires
which oftentimes impede the efforts of
firemen In raising ladders on burning
buildings. In Germany almost the en-
tire system has been constructed under
ground, and the results have been so
satisfactory that electricians on this side
of the Atlantic are working at the
problem. At Philadelphia, recently, a
series of experiments were conducted
which will be of great interest to
electricians all over the country, and up
on which the success OF a number of I'M
derground telegraph projects in differ
ent parts of the United States depends.
The principal tests were made through q
conduit IN which five conductors were
laid. Two of these conductors consisted
VI oAhipIO ChCu1U WIISS3 Willie Tile
other three were what is known as sol
enoids. A solenoid wire is a single
straight wire, connected at each end
with and wound closely around with
another insulated wire, thus forming a
complete system, the electric currents
returning into themselves. Electricians
claim that the solenoid effectually over
comes ali induction. In the telephones
connected by the ordinary wires con-
slant burr and click could be heard, that
sound being the induction from the
wires on the poles on the street, sixty
feet overhead. With the soIenoid the
only sound in the telephone was the
voices of the persons speaking The
falntest whispers could be heard dis
tinctly, and the ease and comfort of
conversation was in marked con-
trast to the other telephone on the
ground wires. A set of telegraph midi
Gators was also attached to the wires IN
use III the cable. The sound was trans
ferred from one ground-wire' to the
other, while the solenoids seemed to re-
sist every influence but that directed
upon them by the operators.

Railway Wrecks.

A freight train on the International and
Great Northern Railroad ran into a gang of
convict laborers at Riverside, Texas, on the 18th
inst, killing twenty-three and wounding a
large number. An open switch caused the dis
aster.
Two freight trains collided near Kansas City,
Mo-, on the night of the 10th inst, demolishing
both engines and eighteen cars, some of the
latter being loaded with oil. Brakeman Daniel
English was instantly killed and Conductor
Newhall badly injured.
An engine, tender and express car were de-
rallied near CentraGa, No., on the 18th inst, by
a collision with COW. Fireman Thomas Prrdy
was fatally and Engineer William Dayton badly
scalded.
Ga the 9Th inst, while two Erie freight trains
were ascending the mountain near Port Jarvis,
n. Y, the engine on the near train ran INTO the
pusher of the forward train, driving it into the
caboose. Geo. Dorr, conductor of the toward
train, and Jerome Grover and Mark Cox, engi-
neers Of the colliding engines, were instantly
killed.
The regular freight train ran into an extra
freight eight miles south of Astoria, H..
on the 9th inst, demolished several cars and
killed Martin De Camp and Isaac Rosser, passen-
gers IN the way-car. The engine of the regular
train was also badly damaged.
