THE SUNS HEAT.
Sir William Siemans Says 1t Is Not Greatly
Above "A Blast Furnace.

ADoNe blasC furnace.
New York Independent.
In recent lecture on solar physics, at the
Royal Institution, Sir William Siemans gives
his reasons for setting the temperature OF the
photosphere of the sun at about 800 deg
c., instead of about 10000 deg, where Roset-
ii and other late investigators pat it. He
agrees in this lever estimate with Wolfe.
st, Clair, peville (?h and Sir William Thorn D.
son, and thinks the solar temperature cannot
much, if at all, exceed that of the most power
full electric arcs. He recognizes fully the fact
that temperature higher than 5000 deg. C.
would be absolutely conclusive against his
theory that the solar heat is due to the re-
combination or burning of compound gases
at the surface of the sun. He bases his esti-
mate of the solar temperature upon three
foundations: First, the behavior OF a carbon
rod and a small gas fame in the focus OF a
reflector exposed to the sun; second, on
comparison between the spectra of various
lights; for instance, the Argand burner, an
incandescent lamp the electric arc, and tire
sun itself, as observed by Langley on Mount
Whitney; third upon experiments on the
relation between radiating power, made by
means OF long platinum wire heated by an
electric current.

Be COURTEOUS.

The influence Of gentle. courteous
words upon those unused even to
words of common comfort may Ee
learned from an incident. which ais
shows that it pays to be polite even
to street Arab:
One day. in suddenly turning the
corner of Il street. young lady ran.
with great force. against . little
ragged boy. and almost knocked Inn
down. Stopping aSaoon lis she cOnld.
she turned. and said very kindly TO
the boy:
Il beg your pardon. my little fcl-
low; l am sorry that | ran against
you.'
The poor boy was a5tonishel. He
looked at her amUmcnt with surprise
and then. taking of abo"t three
quarters OF cap. he bowed very low.
and said. while !! broad smile spread
itself all over his face:
You can hrv my parding and
welcome. miss; and the next time You
may run again me. and knock me
clean down, an | wont say Il word" "
After the lady had PASSED on. he
turned to his companion. and said, Il
say. jim. its the first time ever had
any one ask my pardlng. and it kind
a took me off my feet
That poor boy will never forget
those gentle, loving. peaceful words.

was moditating upon the wisdom Of

the tweed suit, "but am | right in

The request was scarcely preferred
when the American, with the gal
lantry of a genuine Yank. fastened
to assure his English acquaintance
that nothing could give him more
pleasure than to be of service to Il
lady
On the following morning the
American was astonished to see a

THE WOUNDED HORSE.

Pity and kindness have wider
range of subjects than the sufferers of
our own race and kind Touching
pictures like the following will meet
and appeal to every observer more
than once in a lifetime:
In the year 1870, during HE
sad war between France and Ger
many, newspaper correspondent
was visiting the town of Bazeillcs. in
France, which had just been the
scene of battle. Among many
other distressing sights suggestive of
the miseries of war, which were to be
found on every land, he particularly
mentions the following interesting
story, which teaches its own lesson:
In the fields, just outside the city,
there was miserable looking horse,
standing motionlcss. with his off
foreleS poised in the air.
We went up to him. when without
moving i'll the least, the poor beast
turned his great blue orbs from one
to the other of us, saying. as plainly
as looks could do, For mercy's sake,
gentlemen, help me if you can
One of lis examined the leg. and
soon found that bullet lad lodged
in the crown of the hoof. which was
very much swclled and sore. and the
flies had been dreadfully busy with
it.
OF course, to cut it, and remove the
cause of 4 months agony, was but
the work ef a few minutes; and if you
could have seen how grateful the old
fellow was when he put his hoof to
the ground and found that he could
once more limp along, you would have
believed. as L do. that horses can
speak with their eyes almost as we'll
as human beings.
1t Is terrible to think what that
wrctched animal must have suffered
during his long days and nights of
agony since first that singing throb
came in his foot and he was left alone
in his misery. Youths Companion.

Bucharest.

I doubt whether there exists in the
world city which pictures SO accu-
rately as Bucharest, the country of
which it is the capital. Vainly would
YOU seek in London corner reminding
you of Wales, or in Paris one recalling
Southern France. Berlin has nowhere
the remotest resemblance to the gran
deur of the Rhine. Nowhere at Vienna
are reflected the green and mysterious
valleys of Bohemia, or the sharp out
lines of the old military frontiers. Moth
ing in the immense Russian Empire is
discernible at st. Petersburg, and the
brilliant frontage of COnstsntinOple is
the greatest possible contrast to the rest
of Turkey. Bucharest, however, is at
present the image of ROumania- 1t has
emerged from the incoherence of yes
terday, and is aspiring to the splendour
of Tomorrow. 1t is the rag seeking to
dye itself in purple, 3 growing ambi-
ton, the stiff lines of civilization striv-
ing to supersede the caprices Of barbar-
ism, It is the growing capital of an in
FAINT kingdom, whose civilization is still
confined to the centre, and has not yet
reached the extremities, but is stretch
ing towards them, and will reach them;
for the five million inhabitants of
Roumania are certainly destined one day
to ascendancy over great part
of the peninsula. This is now inevi-
table, and whatever the agitations now
going on, or the efforts which may
hereafter be made, this contamination
is certain sooner or later to be realized.
On issuing from the station the first
thing which strikes you is the cabman,
his horse, and his vehicle. Here, as
throughout the rest of the city, a
wonderful contrast forces itself on your
( notice. The cabman, half-barbarian,
half-Turk, with a spice of moujik,
cleverly drives small, lean horses, which
run like the wind over the primitive
paving Of the suburbs, while the cab,
an elegant and comfortable open car
rage, would cut good figure in the
Bots de Boulogne. Right and left on
leaving the station are dingy buildings,
mud-hOvels, worm-eaten shops, which
display fruit and vegetables. while in

Young Lawyers.

The struggles which some young law
Yers make and the hardships they are
compelled to endure in order to succeed
are sometimes pitable, but more often
decidedly ludricrOus. When one enters
the profession he gets an office, issues
cards, hangs out his sign and sits down
and waits for business. He wants a
case very badly long before he gets it;
he wants it much worse sometimes with
out ever getting it. He longs to try
himself in the legal arena. Maybe he is
of sanguine temperament and wishes to
astonish the world. No sOrdid thoughts
divide his mind. He is simply and con-
fidingly creature of the future, in which
honor and wealth await him. All he
wants in the present is a case.
A lawyer now living in Brooklyn be-
gan practice with suit for six cents,
and recovered damages for that amount.
He was greatly elated not only by his
success, but for the reason that he added
to his knowledge of practice in conduct
ing the case. Now it requires more sub
stantial returns from his service to sat
isfy him.
A still smaller suit-and the smallest
on records one recently tried in Scot
land for the stupendOus sum of a half
penny. The plaintiff was carried by the
defendants cars beyond his destination
and compelled to pay the half penny as
fare to the next station. He recovered
Judgment and compelled the company
to refund the money with costs.
Most of our leading lawyers have
started in business in very humble
way. It may not be generally known
that even Nh. Charles O'ConOr in his
early days pettifOgged about the Ward
Courts of New York City, but such is the
fact The immense practice and fortune
which afterward came to him were the
result of years of patient waiting and
earnest work.
A noted firm of New York lawyers
originated under most unpropitiOus cir
cumstances. One of them was so poor
when he began practice that he was
compelled to sleep in his Office, using a
couple OF Blackstones for pillow and
his OYercoat for bed clothes. One bitter
cold night, hearing a strange noise in
the hallway, he looked out and discOV-
cred another limb spreading a couple
of newspapers on the floor for a bed.
The owner OF the bed clothes generous
" shared them with his less fortunate
friend, who In turn contributed his bed.
Before getting asleep the two entered
into = partnership, which was dissolved
only by the death Of one of them after
both had grown old and wealthy.
1t must be admitted, however, that
now it is much more difficult for q law
yer with only brains for capital to Is
| fablish himself il business than It was

The jury Agreed.

There was a 1athy, long-eared young
man of twenty-three hanging around
the foot of Jefferson avenue, yesterday,
with his mouth watering for a chance to
talk with policeman. When some one
asked him if he had been robbed or as
saulted, he proudly replied:
''Not very much! I'm thinking of
timing the force, and I want to ask a
few questions.
81 don't know about your making a
good officer,'' remarked an old bald
head, who was leaning against a tele-
graph pole.
''Why don't you?''
''WelI, there's something more than
carrying club around and answering
questions from strangers. A policeman
ought to know rogue on sight
ssYou bet he ought and that's me
every time,' replied the young man.
'.Well, now, what do you say about
that man over by the lamp-post?"
Il say he's suspicious-looking char
acter.''
Eyes, so he is. Itwould be your duty
as an officer to question him aud give
him to understand that you were up to
his racket

''But there is where you would fail.
Any one who has ever given any atten-
ton to physfognomy can see that you
lack moral courage"
81 do, eh! Maybe I dasn't walk over
there and ask him what he's hanging
around for?''
''Of course not. The shape of your
head-the set of your eyes-the coarse
fiber of your hair proves that you are
excessively cautious.
'sDon't you boiler afore you're hurt,
old chap, grinned the candidate, and
with that he walked straight across the
street and up to the man and queried:
e'Say, mister, what are you hanging
around here for?''
''None of your business" was the
prompt reply.
''Then I'lI make it my business! Who
are you, STRIP
He didn't hear the answer A bunch
of knuckles shot out and landed on his
left eye and he had business on the
pavement ten feet away. The suspicious
character was a railroad baggage smash
er off duty, and after the blow he rubbed
his knuckles off on his vest and saun-
tered into the depot.

headed man, as he helped the young
man to his feet-''didn't I observe that
you seemed lacking in some of the es-
sentials?''

over his head to find the spot which
ached the worst, 'and I'll be gosh
