A Terrible Death.

A TRULY horrible incident is reported in the
Vienese papers as having recently taken
place in the great paper-mill of Messrs. Gel
lerth s. Fuerth, at Pilsen. It having been re-
ported to the manager of that institution that
the great steam boiler was foul and the fur
naces required cleaning, he caused the fires to
be extinguished and employed a gang Of
wOrkmen to execute the necessary cleansing
operations. One Of the laborers, a powerful
young fellow of nineteen, named Anthony
Kaczander, after toling hard at his share Of
the job for several consecutive hours, lay
down in the huge air-pipe, running under the
main furnace, intending to SNATCH q few mo-
ments' rest. He must have fallen into
deep. sleep, for. when the
masons instructed to brick up the end
of the pipe later on in the day carried out
their orders, he made no sign. As soon as the
furnace was pronounced to be again in work.
ing order the stOkers were instructed to light
the fires, and did 50. Presently Kaczander
was missed in the mill. Search was Instituted
for him, but in vain. Next morning it appears
to have occurred to one Of his fellow-work-
men that he might have crept into the air.
pipe. Upon this suggestion being commuui.
Gated to the manager, steps were at once
taken to break into the closed mouth of the
tube; and, sure enough, the charred skeleton
of Anthony Kaczander was discovered lying
close to the issue. bricked ur during his heavy
slumber Of the previous afternoon. In all
probability, awakened by the heat soon after
the fires were lighted, he had crawled toward
theoutlet, and, finding it impenetrably closed,
had resigned himself to his fate.

1t is not generally known that milk
is not only good solvent of quinine, but
that it also DISCUSSES its bitterness. A
writer in medical journal states that if
one grain of the sulphate be dissolved in
an ounce of milk the solution is scarcely
perceptibly bitter. A dose of five grains
may be taken in two ounces of milk
without rendering it unpleasant, and if
taken in a tumblerful of milk the bitter
ness disappears. Another surgeon re-
commends the use of solution of quiz
nine in glycerine, in the proportion of
one grain to one dram, the dose to be
taken in wineglassful of milk.
The Mekarski engine is about to be
introduced for street. railroads in En-
gland. 1t can be used in combination
with car or separately. This locomo-
tive weighs about seven and half tons,
and consists of cylindrical steel reservoirs
that are charged with air at a pressure
of $50 pounds to the square inch before
starting, special regulating apparatus,
and ordinary cylinders and driving gear.
The air passes through areservoir of hot
water and steam to the regulator, and
thence to the cylinders. The heat thus
impaired to the air increases its volume
and prevents the freezing of moisture in
the exhaust passages. When this engine
is working there is no noise, and there is
the further and obvious advantage of an
absence of smoke. This type of motor
has been in successful operation in
Nantes for about two years.
