ONE Of the Oldest houses on the New
Jersey coast is that of Col. Albert L.
Johnson, an ex-Confederate kentuckian
who. after passing the better part Of his
lifetime far inland. found leisure in i'd
vapcing years and came straight to the
Atlantic coast that he might indulge .
long cherished passion for the sea. The
house is close to the water at Bay Ridge.
When approached from the land it ap-
pears to be q one-story structure set
upon a hill. but once inside n finds
that the front door is almost in the roof,
and that below that part of the house
visible from the landward side is story
after story facing the sea. In fact, the
house is built against a bluff, with only
the roof and m story peeping above
the bill. Thus almost every room in
the house has a sea view, and is cooled
in summer, by the sea breeze. A pow
erfui telescope is one equipment of the
place, and with this the owner is able to
spy out every ship entering or depart
ing from the harbor.

SIR WILLIAM THOMSON demonstrates
the solidity of the earth by rotating two
eggs, D raw and the other cooked,
suspended by steel threads. The
cooked egg behaves like any solid body.
and continues to move for . long time:
but the raw egg soon comes to . stop,
because the shell only was put in
motion, and the friction Of the matter
Of the egg soon overcomes the impulse.
From this it appears that the earth car-
not consist of . thin solid crust contain.
ing . liquid or pasty nucleus, such con-
stitution being particularly incompatible
with the movement of the terrestrial
axis corresponding to the procession of
