GiddingS aud Wade.

Judge Pitts, ex- United States Minis ter to Bolivia, tells the following story about Joshua +. GidiinGs and Ben Wade: remember a funny incident which occurred in s islander case in which GIddiugs and Wade were oppos- ed to each other. Mr. Giddincs was making a strong speech ID behalf of the plaintiff. and was evidently having great effect upon the jury, when he be- gan to quote from Shakespeare, saying: He who steals my purse steals trash, but he who filnches from me my fair name" Here he forgot the remainder and went back and repeated, Gentle men. the poet has we'll said, "He who steals my purse steals trash, but he who -steals-steals-' when Wade. who had been sitting with his head down upon hIs chest, watching Giilincs from under hIs bushy eve br5ws, rarrad out, steals that which you never had" The court, jury, and lawyers burzt into laughter. GIddInes grew red in the face. tried to recover himself. but could not do so we'll enough to regain his former footing. The iury turned from him, and Wade got the verdict.

 Experiments have been begun by the corporation of Trinity house, at the South FOreland. England. 10 determine the rela tive value of the electric gas. and oil lights as illumin nts for lighthouses. The two lighthouses already established on the fore land are known as the high light and the low light Near them have been erected three experimental lighthouses. one. pro vided with electrical lights that have to- tai power of 5000 candles; second. furnished with gas burners. of Mr. Wig hams design, that may give total of r.. OOO candles: and the third with the oil and gas burners invented by Sir James Doug lass.
 Three stations have been fixed for test ing the lights at distances respectively of half mile, a mile and quarter. and two and half miles. at which huts have been fitted up as photometric obseryatories. Measurements will be taken for de termining the penetratiye power of the sev- eral illuminsnis in different sta.-s of the weather, and for ascertaining 10 what eX- tent the principle of superpOsition of lights may be applied. One of the ques- tiOns tO be determined Is relative 10 the comparative value Of large area of low illumination. and a small area of high illumination
