THE ROCK CREEK PARK BILL,
What Was Said About Il in the Senate
Yesterday Afternoon.

Mr.. INGALLS, OBJECTED TO SOME OF IT'S FEATURES,
But URGED II 40 4 COMPROMISE MRAsunE-MR
aoRMAS DID NOT LIKE CERTAIN PROVISIONS
TEXT OF THE BILL As PASSED By THE HOUSE
The report Of the conferees on the Rock
Creek Park bill, which, as stated in The SrAn
was adopted by the House yesterday by vote
OF 123 to IS, was presented in the Senate by
Senator Ingalls, late yesterday afternoon. Mr..
Ingalls, asked that the report be Immediately
considered, while Mr.. German seemed inclined
to have the matter 90 over. Senator Ingalls,
said that his preference was for immediate con-
sideration, and when Senator German asked
for an explanation Senator Ingalls, said: Its
provisions are generally known and they are
simple. Il provides for the acquisition of
tract of land not exceeding 2,00O acres in the
valley Of Rock crock, at an expenditure of not
to exceed 81, 200, 900. one-haf of which 10 to be
paid by the government Of the United States
and one-half from the revenues of the District,
In four equal annual jnstallments. It has been
discussed IN both house, The provisions have
been generally disseminated through the press,
and / believe that the measure, while not all
that can be desired and in some respects not in
accord with my own views, il generally ap-
proved. l think, unless the Senator from
Maryland has some particular reason why fur
Their inquiry should be made, that should
prefer to have the report acted upon tonight

Testing Electrical Machines.

AUBURN, N. Y, December 3l.-A special
commission appointed TO test the eftclency
of the electrical machines which Harold L.
Brown has sold to the State to be used In
uniting murderers to death arrived in this
CITY at 7 o'clock this morning. The com
mission is composed OF DR.. Carlos +. Nc
Donald of the State Lunacy Commission
DIR. A. Rockwell, of New York. the great
authority upon electricity as applied IN the
science OF medicine, and Professor landy,
of the School of Mines of Columbia Col
lege. an expert upon electrical measure
ments. These gentlemen were accompanied
hv Harold Brown, General Austin L.
Iatbrop. Superintendent OF State Prisons,
and DR.. Fell. of Buffalo.
The commission desired to test tho ma
chimes upon animals. and an old horse AMI
a four-weeks-old calf were procured and
taken into prison. Reporters were not a.
lowed to witness the tests. but this
evening Mcdonald announced that the calf
and horse had been put to death WITH
a suddenness that YVES highly CRAFTY
ing to the commission: A current or about
1 600 volts was used. The horse was killed
first. Wires were attached to his head AMI
10 one of his hind feet Just below the gam
bYell Joint. The animal was instantly
killed. the time of contact being less than
half a minute. The horse made no struR
ole and there was no evidence that
he suffered. IL the experiment on
the calf the time of contact was
less than ten seconds. As soon as the
calf fell over and tho current was shut
of DIR. Fell performed the operation q
tracheotomy Opening the wind-pipe), ard
applied his patent resuscitating. apparatus'
maintaining an artificial respiration for
half an hour. but the poor calf was beyond
the help of science. In this case there
was no suspended animation. The alter
mating current had done its deadly work
so effectively that death was instantaneous.

Making the Minute.
Max Muller.l

WIZ is our hour divided INTO sixty
minutes, each minute into sixty seconds.
&c. f.? Simply and solely because in Baby
lonia there existed by tho side OF the
decimal system Of notation; another ,sys-
tenn. the sexagesinnal, which counted by
sixties. Why that number should have
been chosen is clear enough, and 1t speaks
well for the practical sense OF those
ancient Babylonian merchants. There IS
40 number which has so many diyisors ms
sixty. The Babylonians divided the suns
daily journey into "a parasangs. or 40
stadia. Each parasang or hour was sub
divided into sixty minutes. A parasang 10
about a German mile. and Babylonlan
astronomers compared the progress made
by the sun during one hour at the time OK
the equinox to the progress made oy
good walker during the same time. both
accomplishing one parasang. The whole
course of the sun during the twenty-tour
eQuiuoctial hours was fixed at twenty-four
parasangs, or 720 stadia. or $50 degrees.
This system was handed on 70 Greeks,
and Hipparchus. the great PHILOSOPHER,
who lived about 100 b. c., introduced the
Babylonian hour into Europe. Ptoleiny;
who wrote about $50 A. d., and
whose name still lives in that of the
Ptolemaic system OF astronomy, gave
still wider currency to the Babylonian way
OF reckoning time. II was carried along ON
the q,.iet stream Of traditional knowledge
through the Middle Ages. and, strange to
say. it sailed down safely over the Niagara
OF the French Revolution. For the French,
when notwithstanding weights, measures,
coins, and dates. and subjecting MI TO the
decimal system of reckoning, were induced
by some unexplained motive 10 respect
orr clocks and watches. and allowed
our dial to remain sexagasimal-that 10,
Babylonian, each hour consisting Of sixty
minutes. Here you see again the wonder
we call knowledge is the result OF an un-
broken tradition Of teacher descending
from father To son. Not more than about
4 hundred arms would reach from us TO
the builders of the palaces Of Babylon,
and enable us to shake hands with the
founders of the oldest pyramids and TO
thank them for what they have done for
