Inquiry is frequently made as TO how the
speed OF train may be estimated. The
traveller especially is curious about the
speed his train is making and the Railway
Review suggests three methods by which
the speed may be guessed with remarkable
accuracy, as follows: Watch for the pas
sage Of The train by the large white mils
posts with blace figures upon them, anc
divide 5000 BY the time IN seconds betweer
posts. The result is the speed in miles pei
hour. Listen atten,ively until the car dis
tinguishes the click, click, click of the whee
as itpasses a rail joint. ,'hc number of clicki
upon one side of the car in twenty seconds
is the speed in miles per hour. where the
rails are thirty feet in length, and this is the
caselsenerally. Count the number of tele
graph poles passed in two minutes, IL there
are four or five wires to pole, aud in two
minutes and twenty seconds II there arc
only one ortwo lines per pole. The mum
ber of po:es passed is the number of miles
er hour at which the train Is travelling.

The cost of manufacturing chemicals
averages So,7sfor amount upon which the
Mills bill allows a tariff of SAT. The cost
of manufacturing given amount of stone
ware is Sal, upon which tariff of $47 IL
retained by this "free trade" measure. The
labor cost on ton of pig iron is $I.35, and
the Mills bill protects it to the extent Of
$677. The workmen get 1915 for making
ton OF steel rails, and the Mills bill allows
protection Of $II per ton. And SO it is

A remarkable instance of the increase of

Gently voted a large subvention in order
that one boring may be continued to q

The latest and strangest case OF the uses
Of applied science recently occurred nea
Perigeux, France, where five persons wer,
Imprisoned by the caving in of quarry
wall, and there were no means at hand tS
rescue them. To find out wherethey were
a shaft twelve inches In. diameter wa'
bored, down which was slid n tube, neal
the end Of which was a small camera sur
rounded by battery of electric lights
With this apparatus a number of negatives
were taken, and the effect of the disaster

Itwas thus known that the men were dead
and that effort to saeeor them would b,

DIR. Ernst Weissenbacher, professor o
geology at Heidelberg University, Ger

disaster to the town of Findlay, Ohio. IL,
has been making scientific investigation
Of the natural gas wells which underli
the town, and finds that at depth of abou
400 feet there Is an enormous eaverr
filed with highly inhammable gas unde
tremendous pressure. Below this are sew
eral strata Of rocks, perhaps a mile inthick
ness, and beneath the rocks is a fire raging
at temperature Of nearly $500 F. From
the tremendous cracking, which tn
learned professor distinctly heard by tn

judges that disintegration is going on witt
great raPidity, and regards an early catas
trophe as not only possible but probable.

Sound Is the sensation produced on u
when the vibrations OF the air strike on the
drum OF our ear When they are few the
sound Is deep as they increase In number
It becomes shriller and sharper but when
they reached 10000 In a second they cease
to be audible Light Is the effect produc
ed on us when waves of Light strike on
the eye. When four hundred millions Of
millions of vibrations of ether strike the
retina In a second, they produce red, and
as the number increases the color passes
into orange, then yellow, green, blue and
violet. But between forty thousand vibra-
tons IN second and four hundred millions
ofmihions we have no organ OF sense cap
able of receiving the impression. Yet be-
tween these limits any number of sensa
tions may exist We have FIVE senses, and
sometimes fancy that no others are possible
But Il II obvious tha. we cannot measure
the infinite by our own narrow limitations
Morcovei, looking at the question from
the other side,we find In other animals com
pick organs of sense, richly supplied with
nerves, but the functions of which we ar'
las yet pewerless to explain. There may
be fifty other senses as different from our
as sound i from sight; and even within tn,
boundaries of our own senses there may b
endless sounds which we cannot hear,an
colors as different asred from green, o
which we have no conception. These an
a thousand other questions remain for soln
ton. The familiar word which surround
us may be atotally different place to othe
animals. To them 1t may be full of musi
which we cannot hear, of color which W
cannot see, of sensations which we cannc

II Is proposed 10 commence a canal upon
the western shore Ct Italy, just above Civ
tia vecehia, at Castro, and TO cut through
to Fano on the eastern OF Adriatic shore
A glance at the map of Italy will show
that in this line two lakes are met, those
Of Bolseno and Trasimeno, and It is pro-
posed to drain these two lakes, thus secur
ing the area for cultivation. The length of
the canal will be about I6o miles, the width
Of It ITO yards, and its depth Is to be about
r3yards, so that ships of any tonnage, and
even men Of war, will be able to pass
through Il. The cost of the canal is reck.
oned at 5oo,ooo,ooo francs, that Is, G7o,-
100000 II Is estimated that the work
could be completed in FIVE years from its
commencement. rhe Italian journals are
highly interested in the project and are
taking up the matter warmly, and when
the fact of the long sea passage round the
south coast of Italy and up the stormy
Adriatic to Trieste and Venice is remem-
bered, certainly the canal would be of inn
mense service to the whole of Southern
Europe.
The year 1888 has been one of the most
remarkable in the records of the signal ser
vice Office in regard to the loss of heat and
the excess Of rainfall. In comparison with
the mean temperature of former years
there has been deficiency in the temper
ature up to October 9th of cog degrees A
there are less than three months in which
to make up this deficiency, it is expected
there will be a long and late fall other
wise this will prove to be a remarlabl
freak in celimatology. The record of Al
bany shows deficiency of 7So degrees, anc
Portland, Maine, deficiency of 1905 de
grees.
The rainfall has also been excessive ir
comparison with the mean of the pas
eighteen years. In New York there ha
been an excess of 6.9I inches of water sine
New Years day, and in Portland, Maine
the increase in the amount of rain up &
last Saturday was $50 inches Other part
in the eastern portion Of the continen
have had similar excess in rainfall.
