India considerable use has been made of rheea in the manufacture of articles for domestic use.
 The theory is held by Professor Mendeleef, says Iron, that petroleum is produced by water, which penetrates the earth's crust, and comes in contact with glowing carbides of metals, especially those of iron. The wa- ter is decomposed into it's constituent gases, the oxygen uniting with the iron, while the hydrogen takes up the carbon, and ascends to higher region, where part of it is con- densed into mineral oil, and part remains ss natural gas to escape wherever and whenever it can find an outlet. If this assumption is correct, and @ sufficient store of metallic car bides is contained in the earth's interior, petroleum may continue to be formed almost indefinitely and yield supply of fuel long after coal has become exhausted. Professor Mendeleef supports his views by producing artificial petroleum in a manner similar to that by which he believes the natural pro- duct is made.
 M. Dugardin-Beaumetz has published an account of the development of the French coal industry since 1865. Welearn from this that in 1865 sum of 5000. .o00 francs was paid to 78,735 workmen employed in the French coal mines, consequently TAB francs to each miner, while in 1885. to 101, 800 workmen, 1e6, ,o0O, 900 francs tor ,054 francs per head) was paid. In 1865 the total output of coal was il, ,000, 900 tons, the value of which, at the pits mouth, is given at 13S, 00Q, 900 francs, while in 1885 the aggregate production was 19, ,500,0OO valued at 228,- GOO, 900 francs. Within the twenty years covered by 1865 to 1885. the rate of wages of French miners has consequently risen by Al per cent, and the annual tonnage per mine from 147 to 1sS, or 2s per cent. The aver~ age value of coal at the pits mouth has re- mained almost unchanged, having only in- creased from Ii francs 50 centimes per ton in 1865 to Il francs 57 centimes in 1885. The average selling price, on the contrary, has fallen from 22 francs 90 centimes to 20 francs 90 centimes per ton, or nearly 10 per cent.

DO FISH FEEL PAIN!
Angling Cannot be Said to be a Cruel
 Amusement.

Angling Cannot be Said to be a Cruel
 Amusement.
 The recent instance of a Dream taking the hooks of two anglers is one of the end- less proofs that fishes cannot feel what we call "pain," the product of certain nervous influences upon the brain or sensorium. I have had several similar instances in my own experience, and generally in manipu- lating thousands of many kinds of fish dur ing my angling days, never could detect the slightest evidence of their feeling pain even while being cut open with knife. The only approach to such evidence was 8 slight eonvulsive quivering Out not neces- sarily attended with pain) on breaking the spinal chord by pressing back the heads of trout, I having been taught to do this from boyhood as when instantaneously so killed they were believed to keep longer fresh. Two years ago trout was taken with the fly in Cambridgeshire having four or five other fly hooks sticking in it's gullet-a most sensitive part in warm blooded sni mals.
 Sir Charles Bell, the great anatomist and author of famous book on "The Hand," discovered that the cause of this immunity from pain is that in fishes the nerves of sensation are absent. In mammalia the nerves of motion and sensation run in pairs. Fishes have the former only; but, of course, also have those for such "senses" as they possess, such as sight, etc., but these senses have no connection with "sensation" (pain) "A very different thing. Thus the gentle art of angling is free from any reproach on the score of giving pain.

TARIFF REVISION.

The defeated Democrats are already hoping and saying that the Republican party will go to pieces on the tariff question now that it much mistaken, as much mistaken as they
 were in thinking that Grover Cleveland's free trade ideas were as acceptable to the peo
 pie of this country as they were to the Eng fish manufacturers. The Republican party has leaders who are sagacious enough to see what ought to be done, and energetic enough to do it. Already these leaders are pointing out the way. Says ex-Governor Alger of
 Michigan: ''Under the Republican system of protection the country has prespered. and the people were not willing that the Demo- crats should do any reforming in that dirsc- tion. The people would rather have the in-
 iquities or incongruities of the tariff removed
 or amended by the party which initiated and
 framed it. am in favor of thorough re-
 vision, commencing at the first article on the
 list and going straight through to the end. :"
 Chauncey M. Depew says: T cannot tell what
 the whole party favors, but think that there
 will be revision of the tariff iniquities. The
 tariff must be revised-but by it's friends
 and the protective principle must be pre- served.n The Chicago Tribune declares that
 General Harrison believes in and insists up-
 on the reduction of the tariff needed to stop the accumulation of treasury surplus, and
 which can be made without impairing the
 just protection of American industries.
 And William Walter Phelps talks thus: The
 tariff issue was stronger in New York than in either Connecticut or New Jersey. In Connecticut and in all New England, in fact, do not think protection streng an issue as in New York. The manufacturing indus tries of these States are so old and firmly established that they do not require much protection. These, to nay mind, are the req sons why New York went Republican while New Jersey and Connecticut did not. AS in New England, the protection question is not so strong in the West, although for different reasons. In the western States there are not so many manufacturing interests which re- quire protection, and the cry of "fres trade'' did not mean so much to them. Besides this, I look upon Democratic gains in the West as a protest against the present inequal- | ities of the tariff. They wish to see these COT. rected, and the Mills bill did not create the ! alarm that it did In the other States. The
 present victory will entrench the Republicans 1 in power for fsur years certainly, and twen- ! ty-four years if they adjust the inequalities of the tariff.
 The tariff ought to be and will be revised, ! but the Republicans will maintain the prin- | ciple of protection, and not fix the tariff in accordance with the ideas and advice of the free traders.

 It it evident that there is tendency to start civil service reform again from where it left off It was going along all right when the Republicans were in office, and many of them feel that 1t will not have much chance until they get back.
 An influential paper of Buda-Pesth, Hun gary, advocates reform in the upper house of that country, making titles of nobility descend only to the eldest son, and having them inseparable from seat in the house, English fashion. The reason is a notable one-that so-called barons and dudes have been killing themselves lately, because they had no money to support their dignity. Her von Lindheim of Vienna has collected some interesting facts concerning street rail- roads, This method of street transit was adopted in this country ten years before it | was introduced on the other side of the Att | lantic, and there are in Europe 221 street railroads against 6Ss enterprises of this char | aeter in the United States. Great Britain l and Ireland have 117 street railroads and | Germany 4Y. Statistics as to the number of passengers carried by the American street railroads in proportion to the population of the respective cities where they exist is not given, but in Berlin 87.5 per cent. of the in- habitants use the tramways, while London is
 credited with only 30.9 per cent, the under ground roods and omnibus lines providing for the passenger traffic of the most thickly populated parts os the capital
 Another case of considerable importance as affecting the temperance 1egislation of the States is now before the federal Supreme court and awaits only the final decision. It is case brought against the right claimed on behalf of the State of Pennsylvania to prohibit the sale of intoxicants on certain steamboats touching at towns within it's
 borders The chief argument brought by
 the steamboat people is that Pennsylvania'e ! high license law was not intended to be ap-
 piled to carriers engaged in interstate com merce, and that, if 50 applied, the effect will be that boats with barrooms will be prevent ] ed from entering the State. As will be seen this contention is based on the theory thai the right to sell intoxicating liquors Is sor ) of sacred natural right, not to be interfered with by legislation, and, least of all, by loca
