Sir William Turner, the present EN-
inent scientist Of Edinburgh, Scotland
has given much attention to the study
OF whales, their structure, habits, etc
lie estimates that the great Greenland
whale average length City feet attains
a maximum speed while swimming OF
ten miles an hour: the "Finner" whale
average length eighty-five feet often
makes twelve to fourteen miles an hour.
Sir William, in one OF his lectures. said
he and John Henderson OF Glasgow. the
well known builder OF the Anchor Line
steamships, had spent much time in try
ing to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion
as to the horse power exerted by large
species of the whale in making speed
OF twelve miles per hour. As base for
their conclusions they took the size and
dimensions OF the great "Finner" which
was stranded on the shore at I.onguid-
dry some years ago. IL was eighty feet
long, weighed eighty-four tons, and had
tail which was twenty feet across at
the extreme end of its ianges. With
these data Messrs Turner and Hender-
son calculated that whale OF the di-
meDsions mentioned. in order TO attain
a speed of twelve miles an hour. must
exercise propelling force OF I45-horse
power.

The rortures of Coffee Drunkard.

The symptoms gradually grow worse
aud are only to be relieved by large
quantities Of the beverage, the abuse OF
which has cursed them. In this way
the victims go from bad to worse, for,
though we'll aware OF the mischief be-
ing wrought, they suffer so seveerly
that they are afraid to abandon the
habit lest death should end the agony
they experience. After beginning with
the agreeable infusion OF the roasted
berries they are driven, in their search
for something more powerful, to swal-
low the tincture, which, though it op-
crates for time in the direction de-
sired, soon looses its efficacy and has to
be swallowed in greater and greater
quantities, the evil influences of the
coffee being, OF course, heightened by
the alcohol used to extract its essential
ingredients. When brandy is taken on
ly temporary relief follows, though not
infrequently the intoxication produced
by the latter is eagerly welcomed in
order to deaden the anguish caused by
the inordinate indulgence in the former
London Standard.

A Political Move.


LONDON. August lS.-The Times st.
Petersburg correspondent says that ii
is declared in well informed circles that
the prohibition OF rye exports was not
warranted by the condition OF crops,
and that the cause was political move
against Germany and Austria.
international stocks generally are de-
pressed by tho Mohurago failure at
Trieste and the stoppagc Of Russian rye
exports. Some fears are expressed that
short crops will cause domestic discon-
tent in Russia, which will lead to a
counteracting policy OF foreign aggres-
sion. Cereals are frmer in Liverpool.
Maize is expected to further advance,
being in demand as a substitute for rye
on the continent.
There has been a change in the tone
of German papers toward the United
States since the Russian ukase regard
ing rye exports. The writers now look
to the United states for relief not only
for the present but in the future. But
il is confidently thought the supply
will Offset the poor harvest and prevent
prolonged distress.
A Berlin dispatch says the news
from eastern Prussia is OF the gloomiest
come aware of the Russian prohibition
OF rye exports and they regard il as al
most a death sentence. Those near the
frontier are depending on rye pnrchas-
ed in small quantities across the bOun-
Diary In Russia. The Russian officials
now refuse to let even a pound OF grain
30 over the line and have threatened
with Imprisonment any person caught
ION
soil with grain bought there.
The scenes described are heartrender
ing and numerous applications nave
been made to the local authorities for
relief. These applications are fast con-
suming the money devoted to the
sustenance of the poor and there Is
some talk OF petitioning the Prussian
government to issue army ratiOns 10

cellor Won Caprivi will adopt this
course rather than repeal the corn

silver spoons were discovered in their

A farmer in Alfred. n. ", who had
suffered much from the depredations OF
a sly old fox, which was too cunning for
traps and too fast for dogs recently
organized an expedition to turn rey-
nard's hole inside out. This was done
while the fox was away from home, with
the result Of finding four young foxes, a
lot Of chicken bones and feathers. and
the remains Of a litter of kittens. While
the men were on their way home they
were greatly astonished TO see their
dogs, which had preceded them, enjoy
ing frolic with the old fox in an ad-
joining field. The fox would run lit
tie way. with the dogs in full chase. and
then suddenly lie down and roll over.

to their enjoyment in short barks and
wagging their tails furiously. They had
been very enthusiastic about digging
out the hole. but could not be induced
to chase the old fox, and the sly
chicken thief got away.
