Elcctricitr in Nyarfare.

The public is al.'s adv familiar with some forms of Lieut. Bradley Fiskes range finders, but new form of this valuable instrument has been brought out which gives the readings direct on q graduated dial The principle in- yolved is that of the Wheatstone bridge. and not the least notable point in connection with the adaptation is that the errors due to the variation of the conditions from actual theory are compensated for by the very construc. ton of the apparatus
 The results of the application of the new range finder Uo tie working of the dynamite gun are most remarkable. and the accuracy of firing secured by its aid is marvellous. The full equipment of generators which the introduction of the electric light on board ships has ne cessitated has paved the way for the employment of large number of cleo. trical devices
 This is especially noticeable on war vessels, where electric motors are used for ventilation, for the training of guns, for the hoistinS or shot, and for many other purposes, and recently a tele- phone service has been established on board the United States ship Baltimore, so as to enable the commander to com municate from the coming tower with the various parts of the ship.

stolen Venice.

Venice is one vast museum of stolen property A self righteous inscription over the gateway of St. Marks informs the visitor, with much show of con scious probity, that the four famous antique bronze horses above the portal, Removed by the rapaeity of the enc my to Paris under Napoleon l were again restored to their proper place by that incorruptible champion of strict international morality, Emperor Fran cis
 But that glorous team, work of sculptors of the Neronian age, had pre- viously been stolen in the Thirteenth century by the Doge Danidolo from Constantinople whither they had been carried from Rome, for his own glorifi- cation, by Constantine the Great, who had filched them himself from the tri- umphal arch of Trajan, who in turn turn had borrowed them, as seems probable, from the similar monument of his predecessor, Nero. Such are the humors of the world and such is the whirligig of time Indeed, if every man had his own again, one might almost say there would be no Venice
 The column of St Mark, with its winged lion, would go back to Syria; the square pillars by the Doge's palace would return once more to St. Saba, ptoiemais; the alabaster supports of the inner canopy would find their way back, men say, to Solomon's temple, and even the moldering body of the evangelist itself. which reposes beneath its pail of gold and jewels below the high altar would have to migrate to the community from which it was first dlched. the Coptic Christians of Alex andria. a.-Cornhill Magazine

Pm Armour's First sioo.

A frequent visitor to New York is Phil Armour, short, stoclzy, far from attractive in any sense, but singularly happy man, who has managed to make 0 big fortune. He cares little for money now, but time was when the loss of $100 nearly drove him mad. Ii was a good many years ago, in the days of gold on the Pacific slope Armour was one of the nunberless throng there searching for fortune
 Fortune paid no heed to him, now ever, but finally he managed to get some 'washings' that he sold for e100. This sum he carefully tied up in an old cotton handkerchief for safe keeping. Then he hunted around for a place to put it. His eyes spied an old and dilapidated coffee pot in a corner of the cabin he occupied with three other seekers for fortune. He put the $l0o carefully in it and placed it lovingly on Q convenient shelf; then he went about his daily toil When he returned from work his eye instinctively searched for the old pot. It was gonel
 One of his partners had tired of work and come home. He had nothing else to do, so he went to clean house. The old coffee pot vent with the rubbish, and fro was made of it all i1 a little clump of bushes near by. Great was tine constenation when Armour told what the pot contained. And how carefully he worked over the fire to rescue the pot Finally he reached it. blackened and bent, but the money was intact, and no happier man slept in the digging5 that night Thereafter he carried it around with him in a belt.
 And that &109 was the foundation of the Armour millions. Cor. Savannah kaypc

5.vsterious Pictures.

Amateurs in photography and cherni- cal magic may get much amusement from the magic photographs described by French scientific journal Posi- tives are printed from any negatives upon chloride of silver paper, and are fixed without toning in a gold solu ton, in 10 per cent bath of hypo- sulphite of soda They are next thor ouehly washed to remove all trace of the salt The prints are then placed in , per cent. bath of bichIoride of mer- cury, in which the images gradually fade and soon disappear entirely.
 When the bleaching is complete the paper is washed and dried To make the latent images reappear it is only necessary to immerSe the white paper in a , per cent. solution of sulphite or hyposulphite of soda, or, what is more illusive, to place the bleached photo graph on a sheet of plotting paper, pre- viously saturated with sulphite of soda, and dip both in pure water The chloride of mercury is converted into black sulphide of mercury, and the chloride of silver which has formed in the bichloride of mercury is dissolved.

The KnIser z Dead Shot.

What renders Einpercr William love for shooting the more remarkable is the fact that his left arm is practically rar alyzed. He has trained himself 10 hold the r"!n with it when be rides, buT that is the sum of it's usefulness. Tie arm is four inches shorter than is fellow and has malformed hand with only rudimentary fingers.
 Tie arm is So wholly limp that Will fam has to lift its hand to even place it on the hilt of his sword with his right hand. It is in this posture, or else in the breast of his coat, that he custom arily carries it when out of the saddle At the table he has a combined knife and fork, which slide into each other He uses this with much dexterity, first to cut up his meat and then to eat it all of course with one hand
 To have become skilled marksman under such a weighty disadvantage in dicates great patience and deterlnina- ton. William uses a very light En- glish gun, having abandoned in despair the attempt to get any made to his own liking in Germany, and carries it on his shoulder with the stock behind him At the proper moment he brings the weapon forward by movement of his right arm with incredible sWiftness asd deadly accuracy of aim Berlin I atfer

Two Large Paintings.

The largest painting ever produced not including panorama pictures, which are usually the work of half dozen or more artists) was that made by Jacopa Robusti, Sixteenth century artist, born in Venice, and pupil of Titan Paradise" the name given his largest painting, which is now in the grand salon of the doges of Venice. is e4 feet long and 3i in width. If we include wall and ceiling decorations that executed by Michael Angelo, in the Sistine chapel of the Vatican, will take tae palm for magnitude, be- ing l33 feet in width. The painting, which was made at the suggestion ot Pope Julius II, represents the creation of man, his fall and the early history of the world, with references to mans final redemption and salvation St. Louis Republic.

Profits from Insignificant Sources.

The am&lut of money that is obtain. ed from apparently indifferent end i'm material businesses is sometimes very large. For instance the value of the papers thrown away in some of the big stores is sufficient to pay good many salaries The managers of a large dry goods house up town awoke to this fact when they learned that the man who had the contract for cleaning their es. tablishuent was rapidly acquiring a fortune by selling the waste materials found on the floors, He had under taken to provide help and see that the place was cleaned nightly in return for the waste paper and pastcboaFd boxes It required very little attention. as the man had foreman to see that the work was done properly. At the ex- piration of this contract it wasnot re- newed and the house takes the profits.

AN ECCENTRIC CLUB.
The Queer Methods Which Some New Workers Adopt to Gam Notoriety.

The Queer Methods Which Some New
 Workers Adept to Gam Nctoriety.
 There are clnbs and clubs, but of all the clubs in the universe the Eccentric club of this city is pre-eminently ea- titled to term itself unique. Its objects are variously stated as the abolish ment of myth and the substitution therefor of science and reason" and ''the universahzation and centraliza- ton of the oneness of the whole Perhaps the latter definition gives the clearer idea of its aims There is dis position on the part of each of the 3j2 resident members and lS1 nonresident members which it has, according to it's official announcement, to believe that some one of the 542 other members has possession of the club constitution and bylaws, but nobody has ever discov cred this mythical custodian.
 None of the 543 members has any idea of the location of the club house for club house the Eccentric club has none. The club meetings are held wherever and whenever two or more members happen to get together-two members constituting quorum. Not infrequently member is surprised to read in the papers that he presided at "a largely attended meeting of the Be centric club last night, as. in emer- gencies, one member may mplify him self into "a largely attended meeting, pass resolutions and give a report of his proceedings to the papers
 In short, the ways and constitution of the Eccentric club are calculated to make man doubt his sanity on first hearing them outlined. John Morris, the veteran florist of Jefferson market, is the father and president of the club; Maj. Thompson P, McElrath, son Of Horace Greeley's old time partner, is its secretary, and the Rev Dr. B. r. Da Costa is it's treasurer Mir. Morris says the club was organized July l, 1876. and nobody can say him nay, as he alone was present at its organiza. ton. Occasionally he or Maj. McEl- rath goes through the directory, picks put dozen names or 80 and elects the owners of these names to membership in the club. The sole requisite for membership is that the name of the candidate necessarily the candi- date-must be known to some member of the club
 The club has tackled all sorts of big jobs. and has still bigger ones in hand. lt--at least, one member of it--grew tired of hearing the squeaking of the brakes on tbe elevated roads, de nounced the squeak by resolution, and advertised, in the name of Col Hain. for some device to stop it. At the din ner of the Thirteen club, at Brighton Beach, August, 1890, the Eccentric club rose up and presented Coroner Messemer with cane eccentrically said to have been whittled out of an orange tree planted on the grave of Columbus few hundred years ago
 Just now committee of the club is wrestling with the problem of persuad- ing Americans to put aside the Gregor. ian calendar and start afresh from the date of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Major McElrath, it's chairman, says he explained the idea to an inmate of Bloomingdale on re cent visit, secured his approval. and has had the aforesaid inmate elected a nonresident vice president of the club New York Sun.

Seeing New York at small Cost.

have just learned of novel device by which person can kill a lot of time at very small expense. It is tie inycn- tion of pittsburger of Jewish birth and economical instincts In some way he discovered that at both ends of the elevated railways passenger can alisht and make the return passage without paying another fare He starts at any station. pays his fare and rides to the next. Here he gets out, surveys the surrounding scenery. and after this is exhausted boards another train. This process is repeated at each succeeding station until he reaches one terminus or the other. Then he starts back and repeats the programme at all stations until he reaches the opposite terminus, thence back in the same way to his starting place. His total outlay has been five cents, and the process can be duplicated on the other lines at no greater cost. Racket.
