In response to the question, "What is the use
ofhaving two eyes3" the answer has been given,
ITO have one left If the other is hurt" Much
as we may admire the sagacious foresight of
this youthful psychologist. 1t will not be found
sufficient to rest eOntented with his ultfmatum.
He had evidently not tried his skill to find how
unexpectedly he would miss the inkstands while
endeavoring to dip his pen into it at arms
length, with one eye closed. He had not thought
of holding his finger few inches in front of his
face to find what part of the wall it would hide
from each eye in succession, or how differently
it would look when regarded from those two
points Of view separately, how much thicker it
readily he could examine three sides of it at
once, how much more definitely he could Judge
It's distance, in word how much more cOnpre-
hensive was the information given by two eyes
II used at the same moment. Assuming that he
knows exactly how to account for the inversion
OF the retinal image and the erect appearance of
the OBJECT there pictured, how our visual per-
ceptions are only signs Of what we momentarily
feel on the retina signs that generally represent
the realities with fair degree of accuracy but
may sometimes represent almost anything else
on demand, how. If the eyes be healthy, we
have no consciousness Of possessing any retina
at all, but instantly and unconsciOusly refer
every retinal sensation to some external body
whose existence we are obliged to assume, I'M
less there be special arguments to convince us
to the contrary-granting all this, our young
psychologist has not thought of mourning how
1t Is that, although two retinal images are pro-
duced. we see but q single object, and this
despite the fact that. like photographs of the
same body simultaneously taken from different
stand-points, these two images are necessarily
dissimilar-W. lie Conte Steuens, in Popular
Science Monthly for May.

From the London Globe.
1t Is hard enough to endure on ones own &C.
count for the manifold troubles that beset a
millionaire, but it is harder to suffer on account
Of another, as 1t appears Miss Nackay Is now
suffering In Paris. Those who have read Eu-
gene Sues pride; or, the Duchess" will not
fail to recOllecr what q sensation the young
helress described In that romance excited in
society, and what schemes and diplomatic moves
were used by people for the purpose of advan-
cling their own designs or baffling those Of their
rivals. Something like this IL said to be the
ca sc with Miss Mackay. The Count Monte
Christie, when he first drove out of the court
yard In the Champs Elysees, and before he had
squandered any Of his wealth, would it is
thought, be poor beside Mr.. Mackay the Ameri-
can millionaire. 1t is no wonder, then, that his
daughter has so many suitors. Indeed they
come in battali0ns-all sorts and conditions of
men. The latest report was that Prince Phil
ippe de Bourbon was the favored one. The
Prince Ia not undesirable man for o Prince, and
the family Of Bourbon Is ilustrious enough
even for an American millionaire But Mrs.
Mackay would not hear Of such q thing We
are told she Is daily pestered to death BY cor
respondents with matrimonial views and has to
give audience to business men ready to make
an eligible match for the young lady. Still she
could not think Of having Prince for . son-in-
law. She has Q supreme contempt for titled
suitors, and for f0rtune-hunting bachelors of all
grades. Were King to propose for my child
he should not have her, !" the lady is reported to
have onca said to Queen Isabella. Meanwhile,
during this love chase, interested or disinter-
Of the situation. Perhaps she has her troubles
as well as her mother. In any case, she must
be convinced by this time that wealth has fts
drawbacks a. Well % its advantages.

The London Times describes recent trial Of
. new musical instrument invented by Mr..
Baltic Hamilton, which resembles In shape and
In the means Of producing sound the harmonium
or cabinet organ. There ID, however, one Inn
portant difference. Mr.. Hamilton employs what
Il technically knownas 'ifee reeds" but instead
OF acting upon them singly, he divides them
into groups Of three connected BY bridge.
which 30 modi6es their individual sounds as TO
emit single note Of grent sonorous beauty and
power. To each group of reeds belongs
s0unding-box or cavity through which the air
passes much as the breath ID singing passes
through the throat, the intention being to pro-
duce quality Of tone resembling the human
voice. In this attempt Mr.. Hamilton has been
remarkably successful BY means entirely differ
ent from those employed In the t'vox humane"
stops OF ordinary organs Tho timbre Of the
new invention varies somewhat between the
voice and the softer wind instruments, such as
French horn, clarinet, ETC., partaking Of the
qualities Of both, the beauty of the sustained
notes being, indeed, remarkable. The chief de-
fect Of the instrument II its slowness Of speech.
which makes the execution OF rapid passages 4
matter OF extreme dificulty, II not impossibility.

There is a corner in peanuts. Lovers Of the
nut will regret to hear Of the remarkable adj
vance in prices. At this time last year peanuts
could be bought at from 3 to 6 cents pound at
wholesale, according to quality, but to-day the
same kind Of nuts cannot be purchased for less
than from to 10 cents per pound The cause
OF this advance in price is due to the scarcity of
the nut owing to the poor crop in the south
last year. The fact that only ABOUT S0O.000 BUSH
els were grown, the usual crop is over 9, 900 600
bushels. led the planters to hold back q large
part OF the crop for the purpose of bulling the
market. AS result. the consumption of the
nut has greatly decreased, and many of the re-
tail dealers have been compelled to withdraw
from the business. The stands that could be
seen on almost every street corner have quietly
disappeared, and the wholesale merchant has
very little demand for the nut. The reports
from the south this spring are very favorable,
and there will probably be large crops in vir-
ginia, Louisiana and Alabama.

No alarm was felt BY the Inhabitants until
about 80 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon. the
18th. when the nrst avalanche turned loose IN
Soofoot precipice near the top Of Mount scow-
den, which rises to . height Of 2,500 feet be-
tween and ct the confluence Of Lake and Mill
Creek Canyons, overlooking the southern Sec
ton OF the town Of Lundy. This body of loose,
dry snow dropped about 800 feet, where it struck
upon the air compressed beneath it, sailed over
the tops Of the taliest pines and came down,
vertically, 500 feet from its last point Of con-
tact with the earth. This demolished the resi-
dences Of and buried MIR. and Mrs. Winters, on
the north side of Chicago avenue; Mr. and Mrs
Mayes and their three little girls, and man
named Antoine Silver and four Frenchmen on the
south side Of the avenue. The last named party
consisted Of Joseph Caron George Chagnon.
August Dorvan and August Duval. Caron and
one of the Mayes girls each saw the great mass
OF snow descending. Caron called to his COM
panions that a snOw-cloud had burst above them.
and the little Girl rushed into the house and told
her mother cloud was falling. Stove-pipes and
cilimneys were filled without being broken,
showing that the hard packed snow descended
vertically. I@
The second avalanche was no small affair, and
was even more terrifying than the first. 1t
started from a cliff overhanging the business
centre Of the town, where no snow-slide has
ever been known to occur. Three-fourths of the
population were in the streets in the course Of
the avalanche when it started and they could
not fee, as the snow was five feet deep and soft
Fortunately the slide struck on a broad and
elongated rock mound or bench projecting from
the mountain near its base and burst into a
cloud of spray, or rather the compact snow was
disentegrated and sent whirling with the We
locity of fine shot from a gum the rush of air
created by she avalanche being sufficient to lift
men from their feet and knock them several
steps and to drive the fine snow into planks Of
the building on the opposite side Of the street
An avalanche that shot down Mount Discovery
on the west side of Lake Canyon at eleven
o'clock Wednesday night, buried many persons,
swept away cabins and mining work, and COW
cred the bodies Of some Of its victims to depth
of forty five feet. On reaching the open moraine
an avalanche down Mount Gilcrcst spread out,
like pigeons tail. to width of nearly half a
mile, and rolled down In O huge wall of snow
800 or 400 feet high. In a space Of one hour and
half no less than nine poEderous avalanches
were witnessed from the town. some of them
running clear across Lake Lundy and one cross
ing the creek below. Forty-tive men. two
women and three little girls were buried by the
slides. -Four men were killed and many wounded
