How a Little Mulatto Boy Came 10 Be the

How q Little Mulatto Boy Came 10 Be the
Shereef of Morocco.
Pearson's Weekly
A curious story Is current in Morocco
concerning the late Shereef. As his father,
Mulai Ell Erbi (who lived to great age and
was reputed to possess miraculous power),
lay dying, surrounded by the elders of the
Tabians, they begged him to nominate his
heir, the eldest son not necessarily succeed
ing to the Grand Shereefdom, though all of
the prophets blood are Shereefa But by
this time Mulai ell Erbi was too feeble to
remember the name of the favorite among
his humorous family.
He could only reply, 'sHe who playeth
with my STAFF meaning to indicate by this
description one of the children OF his age,
who was in the habit of riding on his walk
ing-stIck. A negro slave woman, whose
ear had all the time been at the keyhole,
overheard the words, and Immediately put
the Shereef staff in tho hands of child she
had borne him.
out of the dead mans chamber, they found
in the passage a mulatto boy who Answered
the description, and, in accordance with
the death-bed injunction, educated him as
the Grand Shereef and chief of the sect of

storm, you are fascinated into forgetfulness

who, SO nearly as 1 know, has the most

say the best advice given me,
and which I shall strictly follow if ever
again caught at sea in storm, will be, upon
the first premonitory symptoms, retire to
nv berth, lie fiat upon my back, take no
food for "a hours, or "a weeks if necessary,
and drink all the champagne I can get.
Champagne comes high, but one must have
it in sea sickness It really is one
of the most effective remedies and not
hard to take, as you probably know.
From no other malady can one recover so
quickly and completely as from seasickness
1 don't believe it was two hours after we
had outrun the heavy sea, which had 30
stirred up the waves and our internal ar
rangements, and we had been given half q
chance to stand on our feet, until every
sick man was up sorting out his shoes and
every sick woman was out of her berth
doing up her back hair. We met where
we had parted-at the dinner table-and
more sheepish looking lot of individuals
than we were you have never seen. One
stupid person. man, of course, said some
thing about the late unpleasantness, but he
was promptly sauelched. No one had been
seasick Some there were who had been
suffering from toothache, headache, neu-
ralgia, rheumatism and few even owned
to having felt a few twinges of gout, but all
were subject to such attacks and would
have had the same on land, but no one had
been seasick.
We were all in shape for the concert that
evening, which had been delayed all week
on account of the storm, and afterward
slept for the first night in eight without
rocking.
Next morning we found ourselves in
quarantine, and lost no time getting on
deck to once again feast our eyes upon the
precious country which during the week
we had vowed between gasps never. no
never, to quit again. But the VOWS of the
tourist made in seasickness are much like
lovers VOWS made in wine, and already our
misery was SO far relieved that every
mothers son and daughter of Us was ready
to turn back to England.

safety precautions are most complete and
the car can neither be dragged up into the
roof of the shaft nor dashed down at the
foot of it. Another great advantage of
this electrical elevator is that it can be
placed wherever it is most convenient to
the purposes of the architect, either in the
basement, on the roof, or at some interme-
diate spot. The idea of locating an eleva-
tor on the roof is'a radical departure from
existing elevator practice; but it has been
found SO effective in working that it will
soon become customary, especially where
there are nest of elevators operated and
where the basement space is more valuable
than that which would be occupied
by the machine on the roof.
Besides the absolute saving in space,
this elevator renders other economies
possible. In an office building, the ab-
sence of the noise, odor and heat of steam
pumping plant, and the substitution of this
elevator. leaving only a low pressure boiler
to heat the building in the winter, would
make the basement habitable, and the space
thus saved would accommodate one or more
good Offices The latest forms of this
elevator are waycar with a capacity of 325
feet per minute with live load of 2, 500
pounds, and an express car, having a ca
pacity of 400 feet per minute with a load of

As Applied to Omnibuses.

The coming appearance of the latest form
of the electric "bus" is announced in the
London papers. 1t is to carry II people in
side and IA outside, exactly like one of the
ordinary type of London buses To each
bus will be allowed three sets of accumu-
lators, in which the electrical energy will
be stored. The running of these buses is
in the hands of power storage company.
which undertakes to run electric cars for
any railroad company for sc per cent of the
gross takings, leaving the remaining "a per
cent to pay directors fees, secretarIal and
office expenses, rent of buildings and capi-
tai charged. 1t is this company which sup
plies the electric buses with accumulators
One set consists of 68 cells, each weighing
about 80 pounds, bringing up the total
weight of the new bus ready for running
to rather more than 81 tons as com pared
with the heaviest horse bus, "a hundred
weight, and the lightest, % hundred weight.
The store OF energy to be supplied at one
charging will suffice for trip of IA miles
The calculations as to working appear to
give prospect Of the present low rate of
fares on the lines operated being main
tanned. On the basis that one line of buses
consists of 25, with five spare vehicles in
the yard, and reckoning each bus to COM
plete six 14-mile journeys daily, the total
cost per mile, including maintenance, would
be cents, as compared with 10 cents per
mile Tor horse traction. In other words
each electric bus is estimated to mean
saving to the proprietors of 500 week, or
say 81, 900 per annum. Beyond this the
ratepayers are looking to be the gamers by
the substitution Of broader and smoothly
running wheels for the eight hoofs of pair
of horses, giving at each step a sledge-
hammer blow upon the asphalt, wood or
masadam, with ruinous effects

Advance of the Electric Railway.

The statistics of electric railways are ex-
pahding at prodigious rate. Electricity
is now running about 500 street railroads in
the United States and Canada, gain of
nearly 200 in two years. and fully equal to
one-half the total street rallwaysystems of
America. The investment in these roads
has passed the 5000, 600, 600 mark, but gives
no signs of falling off to lower rate OF in
crease The magnitude of the increase may
be seen from the fact that only in February,

that in both samples he found over ~, 900
ounces to the ton.

An Electrical Irrigation Scheme.

An electrical irrigation scheme on which
very large agricultural interests depend
has been organized in Idaho. The amount
of available water at the Shoshone Falls in
in the Snake river is estimated az second
only to that of Niagara, and it is constant
all the year round. The principal fall is
$50 feet wide and 21o feet high, although a
second fall increases the total head to 290
feet. An electric plant for the generation
of power is to be erected on one side of the
river, the conformation of whose banks are
specially favorable to the project, as no
tunneling will be necessary. The Snake
river runs through canyon of considerable
height, and its waters have not hitherto
been available for the irrigation of
the surrounding valley lands, the soil of
which is extremely fertile. 1t is proposed
to carry the current along the river from
the generating station at the falls to points
where the canyon walls are lowest, whence
the water can be electrically pumped into
irrigating canals and sold to farmers, The
rates now prevailing for irrigation are from
SIS to $40 for bringing the water on the
land and an annual rental of 50 to s. per
acre. The possibilities of the investment
are seen from the estimate that under the
existing conditions the expenditure OF 8, 500
horse power will irrigate 100, 900 acres of
land. 1t is proposed to ultimately extend
the transmission of power to the Wood
river mining country, which will also be
electrically lighted.

The electrical bicycle is again cropping

announce that q small company is to be

ever, the practicability of the electric cycle
is demonstrated beyond question, the pub

dulity concerning it. Tie electrical tricycle.,
which was designed by a well-known cleo
trician in this country some two years ago,
failed to reach the practical stage, and al
though the storage battery is turned to bet
ter account in England than here, the record
of English electrical blcvcles is not by any
means satisfactory. Whether this latest form
of bicycle will be an Improvement on its
predecessors remains to be proved.

the prospect of a ride in an elevator is

JUPITER'S NEW SATELLITE.

Controversies between astronomers as
to the rightful claimants for the honor
of the discovery of Jupiter's new satel-
lite clearly Indicate that it was letter
sent to Lick observatory by d. +. Cart
wright of Detroit, in 1891, that directly
inspired the discovery Of the fifth satel-
lite by Professor Barnard. In 1890
Cartwright opened a correspondence
with the Harvard college observatory,
but no explanation was obtainable.
Further observation was deferred until
the opposition of the following year,
1891, when a recurrence of the phenom-
ena of 1890 disclosed the fact that this
unusual occurrence could be accounted
for in no other way except by allotting
to Jupiter satellite in addition to the
four already known. After considerable
discussion they decided the new satellite
was Il fact, and over year since wrote
Professor Holden, OF Lick observatory
assigning the position which the obser-
vation of Professor Barnard verified.
Cartwright has preserved the letters
from Lick and Harvard college observa-
tories in response to his communications
calling attention to the new satellite.
