A writer says that a years experi>
ence with broad wagon>wheels is con,
elusive as to their value. A four.
inch tire will carry two tons over soft
ground with greater ease to the team
than Il two>and>a. half-inch tire will
carry one ton. The wheels are not
so much strained by stones and rough
tracks on the road, and the road is
not cut up, but, on the contrary,
is packed down and keeps smooth.
The prevalent idea that the draught
is increased by widening the tire is
altogether baseless:; on the contrary,
wide tire reduces the draught. The
extra cost of the tire is repaid many
times over every year in the extra
work that can be done by a team.

"A ReMiarksble Postal Clerk.

The New York post-ofice has a man
whose business for the last twenty-five years
has been to decipher bad addresses. He Las
collected directions Of the various cities of
the country, and is said to know all the
streets and a great number of the residences
0 fNeW York city. Some time ago a letter
came directed to stPatrick Mahoney, First
House in America" The letter was from
Ireland. and after the usual inquiries the lead
clerk learned the time the vessel bearing the
letter arrived. AS an experiment, he placed
it in the hands of a carrier, who was in
structed to deliver it at the end of--Pier.
The house was a sailors clearinghouse,
and, strange as it may seem, Patrick Ma
honey was found. When the letter was
opened the only contents were found to be
a draft for $500.

documents concerning poplar exploration,
in his room in the Continental Hotel, Com
mander Cheyne Of the English Royal Navy
and the Royal Geographical Society, was
found by q reporter. He has been an ex-
plorer, and is at present arranging for another
expedition with novel and original features.
Commander Cheyne believes that the North
Pole will be discovered, and has a strong
hope that he will discover it. He was asked
what he thought of the Jews from Jeannette-
1.-THE first question | asked of a Herald re-
porter who boarded the steamer I came on
in the bay" was whether anything had been
heard Of the Jeanette. He said, NO
Well | replied, you may think me q cold
blooded man, but | am glad she has not
been heard from. II she had, it would indi-
cate q failure to carry out her plans. She
ought not to be heard from until next Octo-
Der, as she had provisions for three years,
and / don't think her commander is a man to
give up the undertaking easily I said then
and in a subsequent lecture that there was
no occasion for anxiety about her or for
sending vessels after her. But [ am ALWAYS
glad when vessels go to that region, what
ever their errand, because thay increase the
chances Of opening up an undiscovered part
of the globe.
"Now we have heard from the Jeannette,'
the explorer continued, land as | feared.
the news implies a failure. AS | understand
1t, she has been crushed in the ice and
abandoned, and the boats containing her
crew have landed on the north coast of
Siberia, near the mouth of the Lena River.
Of course, l don't know anything about it,
but | believe the vessel spoken of is the
Jeanette, and the news of her, Judged by
my knowledge Of the conditions there.
seems to indicate that she has found open
water lanes in the Arctic ocean and has been
working her way upward in them. Had
she been set in the ice and moved with the
currents there, she would have drifted toward
Grinnell Land, but she seems to have found
open water trending west and taken advan-
tage of it, as it gave her greater nothing.
1t is impossible to say where she has been or
what she has done, since this is the first
news of her. 1t is equally uncertain wheth-
er she was on her homeward way or was
pushing onward to the pole when she met
with this accident.
Il don't say that, if the Jeanette has fail
ed, this demonstrates the impracticability of
the route by Behring's Straits" continued
the explorer, who favors the route by
Smiths Sound, ''but I do say that the failure
will demonstrate the dangers of that route.
There will hereafter be two routes favored
that by way of ~Spitzbergen, and that by way
of Smiths Sound. America will favor the
latter, England the former route. The only
other English arctic explorer besides myself
who favors the Smiths Sound route is Capt.
Bedford Pine of the royal Navy, late men,
Der Of Parliament, who discovered Mcclure"

Restoring S0IOmOn's Temple Ruins

The ruins of the Temple of Solomon, in
Jerusalem, are to be restored, by special Or
der of the Sultan, without further delay.
They have long been in an extremely neg
lected condition, and almost buried from
sight beneath all manner ofdebris and refuse.
Directions to put them in as presentable a
shape as practicable were given by the late
Abdul Aziz, at the time Of the Austrian
Emperor's visit, and the work was actually
begun; but it was soon abandoned again.
The immediate cause for its renewal at the
present time is the recent visit of the Aus
TRAN Crown Prince.
