1t Is stated that tho renowned collec-
ton Of medieval instruments Of torture
at Nuremberg has been sold to a Londo
company. Prima facie we should doubt
that the municipality Of a town SO IA
nous for its antique relics would be will
ing-or, indeed, would be permitted-to
dispose of a collection unique, so far as
we know. Nor do the projects of the
London company, as described, incline
us to faith. But the report is circum-
stantial. Our enterprising fellow citi-
zens propose to exhibit their treasures in
the chief towns Of Europe, and then to
put them up for auction. Furthermore,
1t Is asserted that the authorities Of Ber-
lin already look forward to the sale, and
mediate buying the lot in bulk.
Doubtless an exhibition Of appliances
for torture, authenticated by at least the
belief OF generations. would draw pro
digiously. 1t is strange how few instru-
ments Of the sort survive possessing Sc
rious claims to confidence. Our own
specimens In the Tower are just as au.
thentic as the block on which, as the
worthy beef eater declares, Anne Boleyn
lost her head. 1t is easy to understand
that the governor or officials in charge
of an old state prison would destroy such
terribly irritating objects If they had
time, when threatened by events that
might lead to an exposure. Thus we are
not surprised to learn that no machinery
for torture was discovered in any of the
Inquisition buildings that have been
seized. But there are so many cases
where it seems improbable that they
would have removed or broken them up,
that one Is led to suspect the ~executioner
may have kept his smaller instruments,
at least, in his wi quarters. London

HOW FAR CAN WE seEi
Staple Rules by which to Calculate the
Range of Vision.

Range Of Vision.
There is absolutely no limit to the
normal vision, If the sight be unob-
structed.-Yet we can see the stars,
which are trillions of miles away,
while we cannot see a tree twenty
miles distant. Whyi 1t is true that
all objects diminish in apparent size
in a direct proportion to distance, but
that is not the only reason. The chief
reason is that our vision is INSTRUCTED
by the curvature of the earth. A
writer in Popular Science News gives
some figures to show how great this
curvature is.
1t is often a matter of interest and
importance to know how far we can
see from any given height, II, con-
versely, how far one must be above
the earth TO see an object at a given
distance. The exact calculation of
these figures would require the use OF
very complex formula, but for prac-
teal use, two very simple rules will
suffice.
The distance in miles at which an
object upon the surface Of the earth Is
visible is equal to the square root OF
one and a half times the height of the
observer in feet above the surface, and
conversely.
The height in feet to which an OBJ
server must be placed to see a distant
object is equal to two thirds the
square Of the distance in miles. For
instance: The observer is in the rig
cling of a ship 100 feet above the
water, how far distant is the horlzonf
that Is, how far could an object
floating in the water be visible before
beiog hidden by the conyexity OF the
earthi One and one-half times 100 Is
$50, and the square root OF $50 Is, ap-
pToximately, 12i, therefore the horizon
Is l2t miles distant.
AS the deck of smaller vessels, like
pleasure yachts, is rarely more than
Ten feet above the water, it follows
that the limit Of vision from that point
is less than four miles in every direc-
ton.
An illustration Of the second rule
may be given as follows: A building is
80 miles away; how high a hill must
ono climb in order to be able to see iti
As the squnre of the distance equals
1859, and two-thirds OF that number
equals 726, it follows that we must
climb a hill 720 feet high before we
are able to sce the building, even with
the most powerful telescope.
Usually, however, the height Of the
object, as well as that of the observer.
must be taken into consideration, but
this simply requires the duplication Of
the problem. For instance: The
Washington monument is 552 feet
high at what height must an observer
fifty miles way be in order to see the
top of iti Surprising the observer to
stand upon the ground, we find by the
first rule that he could Just see the
top 20 miles away, and to overcome
the remaining 81 miles, due to the
co~nvexity of the earth, he would by
rule second have to climb to the height
Of 294 feet.
II we apply similar calculations TO
the Eiffel tower, the highest artificial
structure in the world, we obtain some
interesting results. Assuming the
height to be just 1000 feet, we find
that, standing at the top, we enjoy q
circle of vision bounded by a horizon
SO miles distant, and that if another
similar tower should ever be erected,
it could be placed over 70 miles away
before the rays Of the electric lights
