New York World Almanac.

OF tho many yearly publications in the
almanac line none perhaps is more popular
or welcome than that of the New York
World, on account of the great variety of
the information which it contains. The
contents of the issue for 1891 have again
been extended beyond the limits of preced-
ing issues to permit of the ever.increasing
variety, and for the introduction of special
articles upon prominent topics. as: The
Farmers Alliance. American Naval
Progress in 1890" "The Intercontinental
Railway" "The Columbian Worlds Expo-
sition," the new rates of duties under the
Tariff Act and the Congressional vote of
1890, besides which the departments treat
ing of astronomical matter and the records
OF sports have been enlarged. The reliabil-
ity OF this work is conceded in the fact that
everything has been revised to date wher-
ever possible. AS regards local informa-
ton, map OF the metropolis has been in
troduced. with Which is given directory of
public officials. churches and financial insti-

HIS FIRST DETAIL"
A Reporters Interview With
General Sherman.
He Is Received With Storm of Abuse, But
old Tecumseh's" Anger Evaporates
Before His Wife's Gentle Words.

The Dana will contest was set for 2
o'clock, and while waiting for that hour a
number of reporters gathered about the fire
in Judge Coffey's courtroom to read, smoke
or chat, as inclination directed.
One of the party produced a copy of The
CALL, and an attorney, who at that moment
strolied into the room, catching sight of the
heading, General Sherman at Deaths
Door," remarked:

LABOR NOTES.
The Subject of Electricity Taken Up by
the Engineers.

the Engineers
The first of a series of lectures on cleo
trlcity and electric lights was given before
the Society of Stationary Engineers last
evening, and the subject was treated by P.
l.. Ennor, a member of the association.
The speaker dwelt on the possibilities to
mechanical sciences through the force of the
subtle fluid, of which scientific men are
daily learning more. He thought that 1t
was quite proper and would probably be
imperative for engineers to keep pace with
the advancement of the science, because
such men as are embraced within the or
gHnZatiOn would sooner or later be called
upon to run dynamos, which would involve
a knowledge of the elementary principles
of electricity.
This requirement would not only add to
the personal advantage of the individual,
but would greatly increase the general in
terest and strength of the society.
1t was announced that at each successive
meeting some prominent electrician would
address the members on the same subject,
i'll order to arouse interest and impart in
structIOl.
