Rcmarbable Astronomical Fact.

Two persons were, born at the same
place, at the same moment of time.
After so years had ROLLED by they both
died, almost at the same instant, yet one
had lived 100 days more than the other.
How was this possible? Not to keep our
friends in suspense, we will give the
solution, which turns ON n curious, but,
with little reflection very obvious
point in circumnavigatfon. A person go-
ing around the world towards the west
loses day and towards the east he gains
one. Supposing, then, that these two
persons were born at the same instan
in st. Louis, from whence a voyage
around the world may be easily per
formed once year; if one of these per
sons constantly goes towards the west
in 80 years he will be 80 days behind the
stationary inhabitants; If the other sails
equally fast towards the east he will be
so DAYS ahead of them. One, therefore,
will have seen 100 days more than the
other, though they were born and died
in the same place, and at the same mo-
ment, and even lived continually in the
same latitude and reckoned time by the
same calendar.-St. Louis Republic.

LIFTING BY ARITHMETIC.
How an Engineer Found n Stones weight
by an Ingenious Calculation.


by an Ingenious Calculation.
Civil engineers are mostly common
place people, but an odd stick OCCASION
ally turns up among them. One of the
oldest over met lives here in st. Louis.
He is an old man, thoroughly educated
in his business and paragon OF exact
moss, even for mathematician.
Not many months ago he was called
to East st. Louis to make new survey
of an old line originally run by himself.
On the first survey he had driven GER
tain corner stake deep in the ground and
covered it up with a large stone. When
he came to the spot he got spade and
cleaned the soil away from around the
stone, and then cleaned it off nicely
with some dry leaves, top and sides.
Next he took out his rule and made a
careful measurement of the stone, which
he used moment later on the basis of a
calculation to determine its weight.
When he saw the product his face
lighted up with joy, for the number of
pounds, ounces and drains represented
therein was within the limit of his lift
ing power. He made no attempt to lift
the stone as means of testing his abil-
ity to handle it, but relied on his ma
thematical knowledge to settle that
point for him. This is the only case |
ever knew of where man demonstrated
ais own lifting power by the use of
arithmetic. Louis lobe-Democrat.

THE BLIND WHISTLER.

| How he Announces the Approach of In
coming Steamers at HilO.
In the little town of Hilo, that lies
upon the bay of that name, there lives
one of the happiest of all tho Hawaii
ans, or Sandwich Islanders, q blind boy,
or rather man. Every body for miles
around knows him, and tho stranger
who arrives at Hilo for shore time is
soon made familiar with the Blind
| Whistler, as nc is called, and the other
curiositics of the place, the Blind
Whistlers pet goose and u giant blind
turtle.
Hawaii being an important sugar-cane
port, many steamers put in here, and
their entry into the little harbor is one
of the most important events that can
happen, and the steamers whistle a
welcome sound to tho inhabitants of
Hilo.
One day it was discovered that the
blind boy had developed a taste for
music, as from his hut and the woods
where he loved to wander came strange
sounds resembling those people make
when learning to play upon some new
musical instrument
For some time it was u mystery what
it all meant; but one day wien steamer
was expected a whistle was heard,
loud and shrill. Soon it came again, and
when the shopkeepers looked out of
their doors they saw the blind boy stand
ing in the street, producing from bam-
boo whistle which he had made so exact
an imitation of the whistle of the steam
hnt itNfr hnt
without going out, said: There is the
Hawaii coming in" Tho blind boy had
conceived tho idea that he could thus
remind tho inhabitants that the steam
er was coming.
So successful was he in the first at
tempo that he began to initiate other
whistles and to-day he has whistle for
every steamer that regularly visits tho
port and when she is sighted or her
smoke can be seen on the horizon, her
whistle is heard before every shop in
the town and the people know that in
an hour or so the vessel will be in.

streets, his sightless eyes lifted upward,
behind him, in solemn fashion, waddles
along big white goose-a familiar
sight to the people of Ililo and curious
one to foreigners.
The third wonder of Hilo is large
turtle as blind as Joe and so old that no
one knows how long he has lived on the
island, though probably over 100 years
1t is the only turtle of the kind here and
is one of the Galapagos Island Variety
a perfect giant. 1t is confined in largo
corral and during the day crawls slowly
about, feeding upon the grass, at night,
by some strange intuition, finding its
way back to depression or hollow it
has made in the ground.
The old turtle is very patient and has
room for three Hilo boys upon its back,
and If the rides are not very exciting or
rapid they are not the less enjoyable

woands Dressed with saw-Dust.

The use of fine saw-dust as dressing
for wounds and as vehicle for medica-
ments or antiseptics is suggested. 1t is
said that the dust, freed from splinters
and sharp bits of wood by sitting, when
used alone and dry, makes clean and
grateful dressing; that it readily takes
up and holds the discharges without
packing or adhering. and that it is easily
rendered antiseptic by any of the meth
DDS used in preparing antiseptic cotton

A SCIENTISTS JOKE.
How Prof. Cook Makes His Freshman
Glass Feel Very Uncomfortable.


Prof. Cook, of Harvard College, is one
of the most popular instructors in the
university. Every freshman has a
course in chemistry under the venerable
scientist. But if the course were not
prescribed it is likely that his classes
would be fully as large as they now are.
An hour in his experiment room is like
attending an entertainment. He makes
things lively in the most approved
college fashion with his
explosions, burning chemicals and other
works experiments. The professor
has spent good many years over his
crucibles, retorts and receivers, and his
hand trembles visibly when he picks up
any of his apparatus or instruments.
One of his lectures is devoted to danger
Gus explosives, and stir always goes
over the room when he picks up a bot
tie labeled nitro-glycerine. His smile
is as innocent as a child'5, and it reveals
the most genial and sympathetic nature
in Harvard College. When he picks up
the bottle and holds it up, the yellow
liquid stirring with the shaking of his
hand, he always says something like
this: Now, gentlemen, it is commonly
believed that if i were to drop this little
bottle we should all be blown to the
skies his hand trembles little more
and timid freshmen look longingly at
the door]; but if this compound is pure,
perfectly pure, mind you, can light
match with perfect safety and thrust it
down the neck of the bottle" Here he
feels for a match. But" he instantly
adds, 81 am free to confess that have
not enough confidence in its purity to
try the experiment" MANY sighs of
relief and one of the professors divine
smiles).-N. Y. Tribune.

chinese Funeral Procession.

A remarkable funeral procession para
ded the streets of Peking a few weeks
ago. 1t was the formal public celebra-
tion of the burial of Tsching Tschu, a
grand chamberlain and brother-in-law
of Prince Kung. The bier was carried
by eighty men, preceded by forty'eight
flag-bearers, eight camels and twenty
four white horses. One hundred and
sixty men followed bearing sixteen red
planks, on which were painted in many
colored letters the name and titles of
the dead nobleman. The whole pro-
cession was a mile and half long,
