Mr.. MulhalI, the well-known English sta
tistician, in a recent address before the Brit
ish association, presented some striking fig
ures showing the growth of industrial Ameri-
ca in one generation, or from 1850 to 1888.
He takes ten leading elements in this progress
of the nation and finds that, while popula-
ton increased in that period 10 per cent,
railroads advanced $50 per cent, banking
systems 918 per cent, steam power 685,
wealth $50, manufactures 40S, commerce 315,
agriculture 252, education 206 and shipping
"A. Presented thus the figures are chiefly
valuable as affordiDg a comparative view of
the advance in these items of national great-
ness. Mulhall estimates that the next census
will show population of Sc, ,eO0, 900 and an
accumulated wealth of $40, ,000, ,000, 900, or so
per cent more than the aggregate wealth of
all Europe ten years ago.
There are on exhibition in the rooms of
the State mining bureau at San Francisco
four dessiccated human. bodies that were
found by Signor S. Marghieri in sealed cav
ern, at an elevation of 1000 feet, on the
eastern side of the Sierra Madre mountains,
in Mexico. The bodies were found in sit
ting posture, with the hands crossed on the
breast, the heads inclined forward, and fac
ing the east. Two adults, male and female,
were side by side, and by the side of the
man was boy, and a girl by the side of the
woman. The bodies were apparently dried
by the air, no embslming process being used.
They are not like any known Indians of to-
day, the hands and feet being particularly
small, and the womsn'g hair brown and silk
en-. The woman's forehead is large, and the
reasoning powers were apparently well de-
veloped. In the lobe of each ear is a piece
of hollow reed. The burial garments are of
cotton, hair, hide, grasses, and the bark of
willows. In addition, the little girl is COW
cred with the skin of some animal.

The president of the trade union congress
which met in Bradford, England, recently,
made some remarks which are worth atten-
tention in this country as well as in England.
He reviewed the changes which have taken
place in the conditions of work in England
during the past twenty years, and said there
was nothing which the trades unions were
called upon to take more closely into ac-
count than the changes in their condition
which were all the time being brought about
by the eternal competition of new mechani-
cal inventions on the one hand and contin-
ously increasing population on the other.
The speaker illustrated his text by noting
the effect which subdivision of labor and the
introduction of labor-saving devices had made
in the last twenty years in numerous branches
of trade. In the glass bottle trade machin-
cry enabled one man to do the work that
twenty years ago it required six men to per-
form; In the manufacture of agricultural
implements the work which at that former
period called for the labor of 2, 145 men was
now performed by 600 men; in the produc-
tion of machinery itself there was saving of
25 per cent. of human labor, and in certain
classes of metal work the saving reached SO
per cent. In the boot and shoe trade one
man aided by mechanical appliances now did
the same work which formerly required Eve
men. A single lacemsking machine had re-
Gently turned oat of employment in England
2, 900 women; in paper making the work of
one man equalled the work of ten men as it
used to be carried on; in shipbuilding the
displacement was four or five men out of
every six; in wood work one man now dis
placed four; in the manufacture of clothing
there was great displacement; one man it
was estimated could now do the work which
once requi1sd the labor of from six to nine.
The president of the congress asserted that
all this pointed to an inevitable reduction in
the hours of work; that SO rapid had been
the growth OF opinion in favor of an eight
hour day that something like unanimity pre-
vailed among the several trades; but whether
| they decided to secure it by legislative en-
| actment or by organized effort, action should
be taken at once. This was, in his opinion,
what labor as a factor in production had q
| right to demand.

ALUMINIUM.
ITS Uses and Cost Discussed Mt Length
by Professor waldo.

by Professor waldo.
(From the Waterbury Americana
An article on "costly aluminium" by SO
NJ, which originally appeared in the Spring
field Union, has been reprinted by you, and
my attention has been called to it. There is
SO much interest in aluminium and its alloys,
especially in Waterbury circles, that I think
somebody ought to point out that the facts
their breach than in their observance in this
particular article. To begin with there is
the best authority for spelling and pronoun-
cling the word aluminium las the American
said editorially. In the next place it does
not oxidize in the air nor tarnish even at q
strong red heat. Il is not even attacked by
sulphuretted hydrogen or sulphide of ammo
mum, and in cities where the ordinary gases
would soon blacken silver table ware, alumi-
mum would remain bright and untarnished.
There is no reason for thinking that common
salt, at least table salt, would have the
slightest effect upon pure aluminium. 1t is
not attacked by nitric acid nor by sulphuric
acid unless it is very strong. Hydrochloric
acid will attack 1t, but the vegetable acids
which we get in ordinary cooking have no eff
| feet upon it with the exception that mix
| ture of acetic acid and common salt will af-
| feet it, but to a much less extent than it
/ would affect tin under the same circumstan-
ces. There is, however, this difference, that
/ in the case of the aluminium the action of
/ the acid mixtures would be to form a COM
pound of alumina which would not be poi
| sonous, whereas in the case of tin or copper
/ the resulting compounds would be directly
l dangerous to human life. The commonest
| example of the free use and exposure to air
| of aluminium is found in the beautiful opera
/ and field glasses, always purchased when
| they can be afforded The aluminium cap to
/ the Washington monument could hardly
have less exposure to atmospheric influences,
and It has no evidence of deterioration.
