THE EMPEROR IMPROVING.
Ills Appetite cry Good-He Cons uits
with bismarck on state Matters.

BERLIN, April - Tho early morning re-
ports f,om the Castle OF Charlottenburg
announced that the Emperor had passed a
tolerably comfortable night, his fever,
which early in the evening caused the ply
sicians some anxiety, having abated more
and more a. the night wore on. The En-
peror's sleep was interrupted from time to
time by his cough, but the paroxysms
seemed somewhat less violent than usual
IL was thought by his physicians that IL
the present Improvement in the cond ton
OF the Emperor continued twenty four
hours longer he would survive the present
attack
A consultation OF the physicians, at
which Professor Bergman assisted, was
held at Charlottenourg
The partial recovery OF the Emperor has
amazed even the specialists who are in at
tendance upon him and gives some hope
that IL may be more than temporary.
The Emperor Is evidently stronger and he
declares that he feels better than he has
for weeks past He was able to eat hearty
breakfast includ ng solids, and lunched on
broth aud bread. He rose at . o'clock and
rcclined on a sofa
Prince Bismarck arrived at the castle
soon after . and was in close consultat on
with the Emperor for nearly two hours,
during which much important bus ness
was transacted. The Emperor was in good

MILLIONS IN TANKS.
Tho Capacity Required To Handle tho
Country's OH Production.

Tho Capacity Required to Handle tho
Country's OH Production.
Some idea Of the magnitude Of the
petroleum industry may be obtained
from study Of the system Of iron
tankage required to store and handle
the oil produced in Pennsylvania and
New York. In an interview recently
with Major j. B. Maitland. suporin-
tendent OF tho tsnkagc department Of
tho National Transit Company, some
interesting facts were obtained. The
largest stock Of oil that the transit
company ever held was on the last day
OF August, 1884, when these iron
tanks. erected all over the region. con-
tanned 40. 272, 900 barrels. On that
date this oil was worth $50. pa. 800.
The bonanza fields Of Bradford were
then pouring out their oily fountains.
and To meet the heavy demand made
upon them for storage room the Stand
ard Oil Company. OF which the Nation
nj Transit is part, continued To erect
tanks for tho vast production until it
had 43. 900. 600 barrels of tankage, at
an outlay of $4,000 600. In addition
to the storage owned by the National
Transit individual producers owned g.
0O0. 900 barrels The rapid decline in
the great Bradford fields and the white
sand pools in Venango. Clarion and
Butler counties left the National Trans
IL with large amount of useless tank
ago on its hands.
The amount of empty tankage which
the Standard had on hand January l.
1885. was 5. 400. 900 barrels; January.
1886. $3.50. 900 barrels; January. 1887,
1000 600 barrels January. 1888, TO-
900. 900 barrels.
AS to tho weight of iron in this vast
amount of storage. Major Maitland
says that each barrel represents five
pounds of iron. SO that the largest
amount of storage in the custody of the
company contained 2l5. 900, 600 pounds
Of iron. or over l00. 900 tons. The
pipe lines Of the National Transit
roach out TO every well in the sngion,
no matter how remote and represent
many thousand miles of pipe from two
and half to eight inches in diameter.
This system of storage and transporta-
ton furnished the producers n ready
means of marketing their oil, and made
tho development OF the oil districts
possible. The pioneer method of trans
porting oil was to haul it over the hills
and through the valleys on wagons. -

STiNCT OF BIRDS.
Intersstin: observations Recently Made
in tho West 81 Scotland.

Intefestins ODsersatiOns R'centiy Mado
In tho West 81 scotland.
II Is more frequently question in
the case Of birds. than in hat Of ami
mails. whether they depend upon the
sense Of sight in finding their way in
flight. or follow some sixth sense"
unknown 10 MS.
An observation recently reported
from the west OF Scotland has direct
bearing o. this point. Ole day there
was a dense fog covering the water,
aud concealing all the shore directly
opposite the point where he wished to
land. Hc was entirely ut n loss rs TO
the points OF compass. In this pre-
dicament he no iced that several rocks
belonging TO rOOkcrics near were
compelled 10 wait on the shore with
him until the fog lifted. AMI they were
able 10 get their bearings by sight.
Ii will be answered by certain class
OF naturalsts that the rook Of En-
gland is so far domeslicated as to
hay st the instructive faculty. Is
IL not enough 10 admit that IL has hc-
quired experience. and relying more
upon this. ana less upon strength Of
sion, the bird has lost somewhat OF
its prrceptive power?
Along with this observation Of the
rocks comes another "a aily interest
ing from the same source. A party Of
sporlsm N were rowing in tn middle
of Scotch loch. Near them was
made track in he water, which was
suspected to be the track If n salmon

surface. The creature was intercepted.

tn" mole was liflcl from the water in

course anl then pursue II direct line.
