4 Risky ErpertDeRt.-A curious and
lIttle-known experiment, showing the re-
sistance of air IN guns, is described 10y Pro-
fessor Daniel Coll@don, of Geneva, in a
recent letter to NJ. Melsens. He was long
IN the habit OF showing 1t to his classes.
Ii resembles a feat that was sometimes
performed by soldiers with the old swiss
carbnes. NJ Coliadon fully charged with
compressed air the hollow iron breech of
an alr-gun, serving as reservoir Having
screwed up the gun, he introduced a round
lead ball. running freely but nearly filing
the bore; then, placing the gun vertical, he
seized the upper end AID pressed his thumb
vigorously on the mouth. The gun was
then ''fired" by an assistant; the thumb
renamed IN position, and the ball was
heard to fall back IN the bore. Thereupon
after recharglng the oreech and with the
same ball he shot the latteI at pine board
about 4 inca thick, or pane of glass and
it passed through. The experiment, gays
VI. Colladon, is without danger, If the ope
rator Is sure of the strength OF his teumb,
if the gun Is more than thirty-two inches
long, and if the ball IS spherical and nearly
fills the gun (In which it must act like 3
plston) The least uncertainty IN the very
vigorous pressure of tie thumb, and her
metic closure of the gun, may entail serl-
Gus injury to the thumb. While NJ. Col
laGon has rep aied the experiment twenty
or thirty times, without the least inconve-
nience either from shock OF heat, a trial Of
it is perhaps hardly to be recommended.

Various experiments have been made
for months past with the electrical phon-
ograph," as 1t is called, the result appear
ing 10 show the snccess of the contrvance
for composing and reproducing tunes
which are played on the piano, Each key
has separate wire connected with it, and
the touching of note on the piano makes
an electric contact which lasts as long as
the note IS de-ressed. the wires pass to
a series of revolving toOthed Wheels, and
the passage of the current through parti-
culaI wire brings the corresponding wheel
in contact with a moving band Of paper,
and continues TO chip off bits of paper as
long as the paper IS passing The result
is that, after piece has been played, the
band of paper Is marked with holes and
sllts corresponding to the notes. To re-
produce the music, the paper is passed be-
tween metal rod and number of springs
each one connected with a note on the
planoforte. When any hole or sip is op-
poslte certain spring, contact IS made
with the metal rod, current passes
through the corresponding wire, and. act
ing upon an electro magnet, it strikes the
same key whose depression had originally
cut the hole in the paper.

From the researches of Mr.. w. FL.
Barlow 1t appears II al aluminium possesses
properties of high mechanical value. A
cubic inch OF IT weighs only .0972 pound,
while It's tensile strength is about IL tons
per square inch. 1t has, alss. large range
OF elasticity, the extension at the yieltiDg
point beng two parts of its length. The
modulus OF elasticity Is 10000. Some
samples 2 inches long gave ductility OF
only 2 . per cent sir Henry Bessemer
says that there Is now invented a process of
making aluminium In cheap form. If the
cost of the manufacture OF this metal
should be reduced there is no doubt that It
would be greatly sought after by makers of
instruments of precision and Others.

The Strikers.

New YORK, June 23.-The strike
of freight handling along the North
and East River fronts continues
without any material change, and
the blockade in the streets surround
ing the depots where the men struck
still exists. Trucks, with their loads,
waited all night at the depots so as
to discharge their contents this
morning. At noon to day many of
these trucks were still waiting
patiently to unload. At none of the
depots where the men have struck is
anything, in the way of receiving or
delivering freight, being done, With
the single exception Of the New
York Central depot. Here business is
progressing favorably a large
number of old hands being at work
experimenting the green men.
New YORK, June "a "A member
of prominent business firm said to-
day to Post rep )rter: ''Thls delay
to the shipping interests is causing
loss of from $3.50, 1000 to $500, 900
every day, to the business men of
this city, and the railroad managers
are not making any effort to stop it,
because they know that on every
piece Of goods which they can delay
until the first of next month, they
will be able to charge an advance in
rates of from 40 to 50 per cent The
merchants OF this city have certainly
sustained loss of S1,25O,000 since
the strike began, besides permanent
loss of customers, due to the trans
fer of customers to other cities"

Remarkable Tidal Wave.

CLEVELAND, Ono, June 23.-A re
markable tidal wave swept the lake
front here at 6 o'clock this morning.
The wave was about two miles wide,
and IL feet higher than the surface
of the lake. 1t came in the wake of
dense, angry looking, black and
gray cloud, which moved sullenly
from northward over the city
There was no rain nor wind at the
lake shore, but there were dashes OF
rainfall in some parts of the city,
and the wind blew fercely south Of
town. Vessels parted their lines at
the mouth of the river, and the
piers and docks were submerged to
the depth of four feet in some places.
Hundreds of fish were cast ashore.
The fires in Lake Erie Rolling
Mill, on the river beach, were put
out. A scow loaded with sand, lying
at breakwater, was landed high and
dry on the shore. A section of the
railroad near the union depot was
ripped up and numerous switch
shanties and small buildings were
overturned or moved about. Some
iron rails, % feet long, piled near
the depot were lifted up and scatter
ed in every direction. Huge logs
were washed ashore, the life-sav-
ing station was badly wrecked and
various other damage was done.
The wave lasted only about one
minute. Seve al parties who wele
fishing in skiffs report that there was
a sudden rise in the water and vio-
lent commotion like a whirlpool.
The skiffs wea5hered the singular
storm without accident. The damage
to property on the shore is roundly
estimated at $4,000. The steam
boz tmen who came in this morning
report squall and sudden move
ment of the water off this port, OF
which no particular notice was taken
at the time. So far onl y one life has
been lost so far-a tramp drowned.

Having passed several sleepEess nights, dis
turbed by the agonies and cries OF a suffering
child and becoming Convinced that Mrs. Wins
lows Soothing Syrup was just the article needed,
procured a supply for the child. On reaching
home and acquanting his wife with what he had
done, she refused t have it administered to the
child, as she was strongly in favor Of HOmeo-
pathy. That night the cnid passed in suffering,
and the parents without sleep. Returning home
the day following, the father found the baby
still worse; and while contemplating another
sleepless night, the mother stepped from the
room to attend to some domestic duties. and left
the father with the child. During her absence
he administered portion of the Soothing Syrup
to the baby, and said no hing. That night all
hands slept well, and the little fellow awoke In
the morning bright and happy. Tho mother
was delighted with the sudden and wonderful
change, and although at first offended at the de-
ception practiced upon her, has continued TO
use the Syrup, and suffering crying babes and
restless nights have disappeared. A single trial
Of the Syrup never Jet ia led to reie'e the baby,

vile and Knox County to the Democratic
State convention, reached home from Nash
vile yesterday evening and last night
Those who returned the night before, be-
longing to the g 'Readjuster wing of the
party, as the Nashville Banner styles them,
appeared quite jubilant on the streets and in
conversation yesterday, over their work. The
two knoxville members of the committee on
platform, were heard conversing on the
matter of the platform. Col. c. W. Charl-
ton said he found that the Knoxville Demo-
Gratis are almost universally pleased and
satisfied with the platform. Capt J. G. j.
Williams said he was glad to hear it. In fact
it was the only platform the Democrats had
adopted since the war that had given any
sound or reputable expression on the State
debt question.
The "Readjusters" all make light of and
try to belittle the ''bolters," as they term
them, and their work, yet they are free to
acknowledge that they contain in their
raQkS SOME Oh tu0 Deot Iueu Ill tAe party
