"A Third Sick Emperor"

A few years ago, when four gene rations of the imperial family of Berlin made pretty front;spiece for the Almanach de Gotha there were frequent references to the grumblings of the Berlinese, that the latter-day marriages of the Ho- henzollerns had debased the tribe of men out of which the old Kali ser sprang. To-day two of the four princes are dead, and the thirc is seriously i'll of his chronic com plaint, a catarrh of the ear. Sus- picion is cast on his sanity, and on- ly an infant remains for the throne which two years ago was the best supplied of all the curule chairs in history. The war-lord of a few months past. who had contempt so lofty for "sick German Empe- ror," may now taste part of the bitterness which was in Frederick's cup. But William has no proud son grown old enough to despise his father. as William despised Frederick. The Iron Prince B1s- marck stands firm, to outlive the whole breed of royalty.-Chicago Herald.

The City of Quito.

If 1t were not for climate, Quito
 would be in the midst of a perpet-
 nal pestilence but notwithstanding the prevailing filthiness, there is
 very little sickness, and pulmonary diseases are unknown, Mountain fever, produced by cold and torpid liver, is the commonest type of dis ease. The population of the city, however, is gradually decreasing, and Is said to be now about sixty thousa nd. There were five hundred thousand people at Quito when the SpaniaTds came, and a hundred years ago the population was reck- oned at double what 1t now is. Half the houses in the town are empty, and to see a new family moving in would be a sensation. Most of the finest residences are locked and bar red, and have remained so for years. The owners are usually political exiles,who are living elsewhere, and can neither sell Or rent their prop erty. Poli:ica! revolutions are so common, and the results are always so disastrous to the unsuccessful, that the:e is a constant stream of fugitives leaving the state.

Didn't Find It.

At eleven o'clock the other night a boy appeared on Michigan ave- nne, near Third street, with a lan- tern and began to search the pave ment. Several men at once accost- ed him and asked the object of his search, but he fought shy of re- ply. In fifteen minutes there were four lanterns flashing around. When the crowd had increased to thirty, the boy extinguished his light and slid off up Third street and entered the house. The others continued to search until an officer came along and asked what they were looking for. No one could tell, and just then it seemed to strike everybody that April fools sometimes blossom ed in August, and the entire crowd stampeded like a drove of steers.

Practical Science.


The Journal de la Chambre de
 Commerce de Constantinople states
 that a method of solidifying petro-
 leum has recently been discovered.
 A small quantity ofsoap being add ed, the mixture is heated. When
 the mixture is allowed to cool, the
 product can be cut into small cubes like those of compressed charcoal. Thus petroleum can be used as a. combustible it being now easy to transport and manipulate.
 The question of a permanent foundation for large buildings has never beeen satisfactorily settled. The American Architect says the latest experiment tried in Chicago is to cover before commencing the footings-the entire area of the ex- cavation of the building with a thick stratum of concrete, laid di- rectlY upon the top of the clay hard-pan. The depth of this course is nearly two feet, and its object is to so strengthen the clay that the settlement may be reduced to a minimum.
 A novel method of locating a leak in a watermain was employed recently at Rochester, N. Y., with entire success. The break in the main vas known to be between the banks of the river. A solution of bi-permanganate of potash was introduced at hydrant on the side of the river nearest the reservoir, and observers were stationed on the river along the line ofthe main. A deep reddish purple discoloration of river-water at one point soon made the exact location of the leak apparent.
 The Lick Observatory, with it's famous telescope, has stimulated the ambition of other astrono- mers to have something even better. Southern California is not to be outdone by Northern California. The university at the lower end of the State is now looking around for some one to construct lens of 42 inches. They are prepared to pay $100,O00, and want the moon brought within sixty miles that is, they want an instrument of such magnifying power that the moon will appear as it would to the naked eye if but sixty miles from Us.
 If water containing lead s..pass- ed through filter of phosphate of lime, the lead is completely remov- ed as an insoluble phosphate. A filter of animal charcoal can be used advantageously for this purpose, since it consists largely of calcium phosphate.

COST TOO MUCH.

Yesterday when the jurors were receiv-
ing their orders in the clerks Office the
question of court expenses was being DIS
cussed by number of gentlemen present.
The general opinion seemed 10 be that
some cheaper mode ought TO be devised for
regulating the differences and securing
Justice between citizens. No one, how
ever, seemed 10 be able to suggest any bet
ter plan than that now employed In
speaking of court expenses Commissioner
Alley said that during the last SIX months
the prosecutions under the Murray law
had cost this county at the rate of twenty
FIVE thousand dollars year and that the
county had not received one thousand dol
lars in fines from that source. He was
satisfied that some cheaper machinery
should be provided for the enforcement OF
this law. He said that more than p per
cent of the entire tax levy of Sedgwick
county was spent in these liquor prosecu'
tions and he thought somebody ought to
be able to provide better means of secur-
ing the desired object.
