What the Zero Mark Means.
SOMETHING ABOUT A WORD THAT Is APT TO BE HEAR
WHEN BILLIARDS. BOON.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat
Ninety-nine citizens out OF one hundred had
something to say about zero" yesterday: perhaps
not one in one hundred could have told of-hand
why point thirty-two degrees below the freezing
point on FahrenheitS thermometer is called zero.
For that matter, nobody knows. The Fahrenheit
scale was introduced in 1870. Like other thermom-
etric scales it has two fixed points, the freezing
point. or rather the melting point OF ice, and the
boiling point OF water. The Centigrade and
Reaumur scales call the freezing point zero and
measure therefrom in both directions. This is a
very natural arrangement. Fahrenheit kept the
principle on which he graduated his thermometers
g secret and no one has ever discovered it, 1t is
thirty-two degrees below freezing-the point Of
absolute cold or absence Of all heat either because,
being about the temperature OF melting salt and
snow. 1t was the greatest degree of cold that he
could produce artitfc!ally or because 1t was the
lowest natural temperature OF which he could
find any record. The grounds on which Fahrenheit
put one hundred and eighty degrees between the
freezing and boiling points are likewise unknown.
A FRENCH RADICAL PAPER NDCTED.-Deputy
TalanderS paper, RPpubliY,te DemOcrGtigue ct
SOciGie published at Paris. has been indicted for
melting to murder and OutrageS against morality.
This action is taken account OF the statement
Gently made in TalanIier's paper that upriSaiS
against the English would soon occur in Ireland
ard England to ayenge the execution OF ODon-
nell.

BoY-HIs ATTEMPTS TO POISON PEOPLE AND CUT
THROATS-A SELF-COEFESSED MURDERER-A MORAL
MONSTER TO BE EXAMINED BY PHYSICIANS.
For the past three months Mr.. William Benjamin,

was refused. The next day he went to drug
store on street northeast and bought box of
Trough on Rats" and quantity OF arsenic. When
ne went nome he put the contents In three quarts
OF milk, with the Intention Of poisoning the family,
but he failed in this attempt The next dag he re-
neWed dis attempt, putting the
POISON IN BUCKET OF WATER,
and Mr.. Benjamins eight children drank from the
bucket and were taken subsequently with violent
pains In the stomach, but all recovered. He also
gave some OF the arsenic to the CATTLE which made
them sick, and killed one pig. The poison which
was put In the bucket OF water remained there
over night Forgetting about Its presence, he drank
some OF the water himself and in few minutes
was taken sick. but ran down to UniOntown, where
On one occasion, 1t IS stated, he sprnkied some Of
the powder on Mrs. Ben1am1ns bread. She, how
ever. discovered 1t, and threw the bread away. He
also attempted to set fire to the barn, hut the corn
shucks burned so slow he thought he would be
detected, and put out the fire.
AN ATTEMPT AT THROAT CUTTING.
just before Christmas he attempted to cut one
OF the chidrens throat, while she was asleep, but
she woke up Just as he had his hand raised to cut
her. Two days before Christmas he suddenly dis
appeared, and went to Baltimore. and finding that
he didn't fare well In that city he came back yes
terday and was arrested by Officer ". L. Anderson
about three miles across the navy yard bridge. He
was taken TO the eighth precinct, where he made
fun confession to the officer Of his various mis-
deeds.

The boy stated that While living In Baltimore he
poisoned his mother and. aunt, who died from the
effects. and at one tine he also attempted to set
his mothers house on fire. by building fire in the
Water-clOset and putting handful OF cartridges
He also said that while in Baltimore he used to
poison persons and cattle for spite. Since he has
been with his uncle he has been stealing from all
the neighbOrs, who regarded him as a common
thief Mrs Benjamin. who teaches school. has been
taking him TO school with her every morning. and
mad TO keep him in her sight all the time. In the
Police Court. this morning. he was charged with
being an 1ncorrig1ble boy. His uncle gave tisti-
mOny confirming the facts as above stated. and ne
was sent to Jail for further hearing. He will he

WASHINGTON AS A STORM CENTER LAST NIGHT-THE
RISE IN THE RIVER AT HARPER's FERRY-PRos-
PECTS OF FAIR WEATHER TOMORROW.
"We received the full benefit OF the storm last
night" said Lieut.. Powell at the signal Office this
morning. 'The storm center was almost exactly
at Washington. An inch and half OF rain fell in
eight hours. and the barometer fell an inch and a
quarter in twenty-four hours
''What will be the effect on the river?r asked
the reporter.
1--WE can't tell. for we get no regular reports from
Harper's Ferry. There were very heavy rains I'D
in that country. though. last night. and While not
so heavy as we had here much more snow had
fallen, and an immense volume OF water must have
been swept into the river. We had one report from
iarpers Ferry last night stating that the river had
rlSen seven rect. The danger IS that the freShet
may break the Ice. which. becoming gOrged. will
cause the river TO rise very high as 1t has done be-
lore now. Icant tell you anything definite about
''What kind Of weather may we expect?" asked
the reporter.
"There will be fair and colder weather tomorrow
morning. followed by gradually rising tempera-
ture. The storm center which struck us last night
Is just north OF Philadelphia this morning. There
were heavy rains in New England last night and
through the middle Atlantic states generally, turn
ing into snow. Heavy gales are raging along the
Atlantic coast. At Boston the wind blew at a rate
or IS miles per hour and Oh the New Jersey coast IS
miles per hour"
THE RIVER
The freShet last night carried out the Ice in Rock
creek. The river ice remains firm. although raised
little: but. as the weather has turned colder, &c
serious damage is anticipated.
