The Eleventh ward, Allegheny, appears
to have two Aldermen. w. f. Richardson

The little Alton Is making plucky fight

When dinner was over, Gladys pleaded
headache as an excuse for going straight to
her own room; and Ralph strolled out into
the garden to smoke a cigar, sedative
which he sorely needed. But heswas not
fated to enjoy his "weed" in peace, for he
had scarcely established himself in his
favorite nook in the shrubbery when he
caught sight of white gown through the
trees, and in another moment Gladys, look
ing pale, scared, and agitated, seated herself
at his side.
"What has alarmed you, darling?' he
said, finging away his unfinished cigar and
encircling her with his arm. The poor girl
was breathless and palpitating, and her eyes
were dilated with alarm.

To Measure the Sea Level.

A new apparatus for measuring the
mean level of the sea has lately been in
stalled at Marseilles. It is based on the
principle that when liquid wave trav-
erses a capillary tube or porous parti-
ton, its amplitude diminishes and it is
retarded in its phases without the mean
level of the wave changing. 1t consists
Of glass tube, the lower end Of which
communicates by a flexible pipe with a
plunger which is lowered beneath the
lowest water level There are two cells
in the plunger, the lower being filed
with sand and open to the sea, the result
being that the column of water in the
tube rises and falls very little with the
tides, and the mean sea level can be read
from graduated scale. New York

The Earth's Age.

The age of the earth is estimated from
the increment in the temperature as we
penetrate its crust. The rate at which
the earth cools can only be determined
by making use of data confessedly inn
perfect; but from these Sir William
Thompson finds that 10000, 900 or 200,
10000 years ago it first began to be
crusted over by solid film of rocks;
that 10000, 900 years afterward it was
still so hot that the temperature in
creased degs. Fahrenheit for every foot
vertically descended below the zone of
constant temperature. The present rate
of increase averages about 1.51 of de-
gree for every foot.-St. Louis Republic.

Disposing Of an once Seeker.

DispOsing of an Once Seeker.
"The art of putting the right men in

but that of finding places for the discon-
tented is the most difficult"
1t would seem from this that the dis
tnguished French statesman was as
much prey to Office seekers as are the
public men of our own time. His man
ner of disposing of them is amusingly
illustrated in the following anecdote:
One day one of these troublesome per-
sons presented himself to M. de Talley-
rand and reminded him that he had beer
promised place.

tell something that suits and which can
be given. You don't know Of anything?
Well, find something. You must admit
that l haven't the time to search for you :"
The applicant was thus disposed of for
the time being, but a day or two later he
again presented himself, his face radiant
with hope, and said:
"Sir, such and such place is vacant. :"
Vacant" replied Talleyrand. "Well,
what do You wish me to do? You ought
to know that when place is vacant it
has already been promised. Boston
