Scientists have long sought for "a fixed
and invariable standard OF length. The
measures i'm common use are mere arbi.
trary lengths. and, f the original stand.
ards should be destroyed, could not be ac-
curately replaced The French Meter is
supposed to bc 4 ten milli0Hth part Of the
quadrant of the earth; but the accuracy
Of the original measurement has been
seriously called in question. The So called
wave lengths of light have been suggested
a. furnishing an invariable numerical
magnitude. but their excessive minute
ness and the difficulty OF accurately meas
uriag them have heretofore been an in
superable objection to their Use.
Mcssrs. Nicholson and Morley have now
devised q method of measuring these
wave lengths. which they claim is prob
ably ccurate 10 teu-miiIionth part.
When it is considered that "a length
of sodium yellow light Is only about one
forty thousaudth of % inch, the delicacy
of this method becomes apparent. What
ever theory may be held as 10 the nature
Of light. the numerical values called for
convenience "wave lengths are actual
and lnvariable magnitudes o.. something,

proves reliable, there will be no difficulty
in obtaining "a fixed standard OF length

the mace. The mace is a shaiteG

fitted into an iron head, the latter
being of many different STYLES. Some
maccs have phalanges on the sides, others
are round like an orange. and furnished
with sharp projecting points, While others

Throngs of People Visit the Remains of

WASHINGTON, August 10th.-A few min
utes before s o'clock this morning Mrs.
Sheridan, accompanied by General and
Mrs. Rucker, her father and mother, Col
onel Sheridan aud other members of the
family. entered st. Matthew's Church,
where the remains of the dead General lie
in state. At that hour a special requiem
mass was celebrated by Father Kerwick.
at the conclusion of the service the church
was cleared, and Mrs. Sheridan remained
alone with her dead. AS she left the
church the guard resumed their places and
visitors were again admitted.
A steady stream of people poured in and
out of the church all day. They included
all classes-from members of Congress to
laboring men in their everyday clothes
looking upon the casket containing the re-
mains OF the great Commander. Those
VINO wished 10 stop in the church to at
tend the devotions took seats in the pews,
but the line kept passing on, at times di-
minishing in number, and then again
thronging the broad isles.
In accordance with the wish of Mrs
Sherman, the simple effect of the casket,
covered only with the American flag, was
not broken by placing floral tributes upon
it. Such flowers as were received were
placed on the steps inside the altar-rail. A
wreath of ivy leaves with palm branches
arrived at the church this morning from
some unknown source. 1t was thought to
have been sent by the President
