Wind Force.

Lohpbdhs AugdSlHe.
Three years ago we were startled and
Mortified by the news that the Tay bridge
had fallen when 3 train was passing over 1t,
and the investigation which followed
brought into prominent notice not only
the very great diversity OF opiRion as to
wind.pre9sure, but the necessity that some
definite result should bearrived At 1t ap.
peared from the examination Of engineers
OF the highest repute that they had no exact
knowledge as to whether the extreme force
Of wind should be taken as 10 pound on u
square foot, or 20 or 40. II was admitted
that pressures OF 40 pounds had been regis.
tered, but they were considered so except:
ional and restricted that it had
been deemed unnecessary to make a iull
provision for them. But on October IA,
1881, q pressure et 50 pounds was regis.
tered at Greenwich, almost at the very
moment when ~thirty.ive magnificent trees
in the immediate neighborheSd were pros.
trated; that particular gust Of intense
pressure was by no means restricted to an
area Of few yards. Nor Is this pressure
OF tfty.three pounds the highest that has
been recorded. During a gale at Liverpool,
in March, 1871, the pencil thermometer was
driven lar beyond the scale, and was csti.
mated to have marked a pressure Of ninety
pounds. 1t Is impossible TO say whether
these are actual pressures or not. Prof.
Stokes, who speaks with very high author
ity, considers that the register OF a pressure
plate is so per cent too high, a correction
which would reduce these pressure to
thirty and to fifty pounds on the square
foot; but many observers and men otgreat
practical experience (among Others Mr..
Osler and Mr.. Symons) believe that the
registered pressure is, by q balance Of
errors, NOT very lar from the truth.

labor troubles.

More than seven thousand coal miners In
the Pittsburgh district are 'out." Elsc'
where there is trouble between cigar max
ers, carpenters, bricklsyen and other
mechanics and their employers. There Is
no threat Of violence. The men simply
say that itthcy do not receive a certain
price for their labor they will not work.
This ia theil right. 1t is also their right to
combine and give TO each man the strength
OILS whole organization.
1t is to be regretted, however, that no
more satisfactory plan has been devised
for transacting business SO important. For
the strike ia in q sense the argument oil
force, and that is not the best way for
employer and employee to getalong. Force
in this mild form is ~iustifable when no
means less Objectionable will answer the
same purpose, but 1t ought 10 be the last
resort. 1t is q serious thing to bring any
kind Of business 10 n dead halt. Capital
suffers, but capital can stand idle
noes better than labor, Unemployed
money capital can live on itself, unem'
ployed labor can moi. Labor ID q
capital, but only its fruits are avail.
able where man has passed out OF the
primitive State. The farmer who raises all
that he eats, who makes at home all that
he wears aud uses only hcme made imple'
ments, can get along without ready money.
But the coal miner who must buy all that
he eats and wears must buy them with
money, and II his labor be unemployed he
must suffer. The trades union may help
for awhile, hut there comes IN end oil that.
In this day OF enlightened progress there
ought to be something better than the
strike. Arbitration has often proved a dis
appointment. but 80 has the strike; and 1t
may be doubted whether arbitration has
even generally had a fair chance. Arbi'
tration requires that each side shall be
well disposed, that there shall be a willing
ness to do what is right and to accept the
decision in spirit as well as in letter.
Suspicion, distrust, will be fatal to
arbitration. Without respect and
confidence the iairest award will
be Of little service. Arbitration is the one
plan which suggests itself first and promises
most, and yet it is for from the first resort.
II in these present dissgreements there
could be a friendly understanding between
employers and employees, and If work
could 70 on while the wage question was
under discussion, it would be better for all
concerned. It is a shock to business when
so many men suddenly stop working and
earning. The loss iinds it way through all
the courses OF trade and many tradesmen
are seriously crippled.
We are learning to do 80 many things so
much better than we used to that it is not
too much to look forward to day when
wage disputes will be settled by the most
rational methods and with the least inter.
ference to business. We shall not see the
day when there will be no disputes, for
there will always be employees who want
more and employers who want to give less.
But the reasonable men on both sides
ought to have q reasonable way OF settling
their differences.

NO FAIrn IN pnAYEK CURES.
The Rev. Mr.. Robinson Prociaims tina
the Days of Miracles Are Fast.

Philadelphia Times.
The Rev. James Robinson, OF the Fourth
Presbyterian Church, at Twelfth and LON.
bard streets, last evening preached the first
OF a series OF sermons on "The Prayer Cure
Not u Prayer Test" The preached treated
the su biect in a calm and concise manner
and pointed out the error Of believing that
anyone could arrogate to himself the right
10 believe that by his prayers miracles
would be performed. He said that every
one approaching the throne OF the Al.
mighty must either in word or spirit pre-
face and conclude his application with
these words: "Thy will be DONE" There
fore, no one with consistency could cay
that he could after or declare the will Of
his Ruler and Creator. The text OF the
discourse was the twelfth verse; Of tho eighth
chapter OF St. Mark: "And He sighed
deeply in His Spirit and saith, Why doth
this generation seek after q sign? Verify, l
say unto you, there shall no sign be given
unto this generation" These words, the
speaker said, were delivered by Christ
when the Pharisees had asked Him for
wonders and signs. He had performed
many miracles among them, but they were
not satisfied. They still desired other mir
acles and other signs OF their W selection.
This is an inquiring and a restless age
an age OF doubt aud unbelief-said the
speaker. Still, 10 this respect the times
are not unlike those when Christ appeared
upon the earth. Then the Jews still looked
for another Messiah and the Pharisees,
Sadducees and Scribes, as now, cried out
for the performances OF more miracles and
the appearance OF other signs. "And il
ono should say 10 me that through the
efficacy Of bis prayers he could heal the
sick, give sight to the brad, hearing to the
deaf and raise the palsied being into the
newness Of life, l would not believe the
teachings Of Holy Writ oue iot orone title
more than l do now" Men have believed
that the infrm could be made whole by
laying their bodies upon the bones Of
saints, he continued, but 1t is not necessary
now to prove the error OF this belief. And
for an institution or number OF men to as
,ert that they have the power to effect
physical cures by means OF their prayers is
Just as erroneous as the other belief and
Just as much an impossibility. A miracle
is a performance or effect for which there
is apparently no agency or no cause:
Prayer is the uplifting Of the heart to God
the solemn communion Of man with his
Maker. When Jesus was upon this earth
He performed miracles to show that he was
one who came from God. When He as.
cended into His heavenly home the reason
and the performing oil miracles ceased.
