WONDERS WITH FIGURES.

A committee of the French Academy
has recently investigated the latest of
mathematical prodigies, Jacques In
audi by names, and a writer in the
Revue des DeuG MOndes, offers an in
teresting account of the a Inaudi,
who is now 25 years old, is of poor
family, and his childhood was spent in
taking care of sheep. His ~extraordi-
nary mathematical genius showed
itself when he was six yea 8 old. His
older brother had taught him to count,
but so far as is known did not teach
him the multiplication table. At that
time neither of the boys could read.
Within a year Jacques could multiply
in his head numbers containing five
figures each.
The older brother soon left home on
a barrel-organ trip, and Jacques accom-
panied him, to collect the pennies and
exhibit his skill at figures. Not long
afterward a Snowman engaged him,
and he made his first appearance In
Paris.
His wonderful performances are in
addition, subtraction, multiplication,
division, and the extraction of roots.
When a problem is given to him he
listens, repeats it, says, Il begin"
falls to muttering rapidly to himself,
and presently says, Il am done," and
announces the result.
While he is engaged in the calcula-
ton nothing disturbs him, and he will
answer questions and even carry on
conversation during the process-that
Is to say, while he is multiplying in his
head eight figures by eight figures, or

so faithfully, and his masters fairly
grovelled in the dust as the yelled to
their gods and frothed at, the mouth in
their frantic Indian way of expressing
sorrow. The tears came in my eyes as
l looked at the old fellow and knew
there wa no help for him.
"As the water covered his eyes, his
courage gave way at last, and he ut
tered a piercing scream of fright
through the trunk, and repeated it
several times, 1t made my blood
curdle, l tell you. Have you heard
horses scream in a burning buildingY
1t Is almost human. So was the old
fellows death cry. The end was close
at hand. His long trunk still waved
wildly above the water, but nothing
else of him was visible. It's length
grew less and less, and finally the
water poured over the top of it. One
more bubbling, checked, gasping scream
threw the water out again into a high
jet, but that effort was the last, The
stream quickly filed up his only chan.
mel to the air above, and the old ele-
plant was buried before he was dead.
l could have watched a dozen natives
swallowed up in the anne way without
feeling half as bad about it,"

Railroad Men Who Are Given Small For
tunes for Their Services.
Railroad officials are better paid than
any other set of salaried men.
President Milton H Smith, of the
Louisville and Nashville, refused $35-
600 a year from the Richmond and
Danville, so he must get a handsome
salary.
s. M. FELTON, asked $50, 900 a wear
salary when he left the Erie to take
the Presidency of the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia, and he required
a written contract for five years, too.
The company gave it, and although he
has been superseded and is but a Vice
President now, he gets $50, 900 a year
and has three years longer on that
contract.
The Richmond Terminal would have
given either Henry or Albert Fink
$4,000 a year to take the Presidency
under the proposed reorganization
scheme. The best paid general man
ayers in this part of the country get
$50, 900 a year. Such systems as the
Richmond and Danville and the East
Tennessee pay that. The Central and
roads of its class pay a general manager
say SO, 900 a. year. A little road of a
hundred miles will not pay more than
$4,000 a year to a general manager, for
less ability is required to run it.
Traffic managers are well paid, and
deservedly so. They make the money.
You will find plenty of men who do
not believe in traffic managers and say
that they are fifth wheels" and all
that, but if it were not for the fifth
wheel the wagon would upset in turn
ing around short. In ~pursuit.of traffic
the railroad wagon does not always
have a big field to turn around in, but
often has to take short cuts and make
sharp turns.
Traffic managers get six or eight
thousand dollars a year up to $50, 900
that is in the Southern country. In
the North and West they average
about the same, but there are excep-
tional cases, perhaps, where more is
paid, although it is doubtful if any
better than the large Southern
system.
superintendent, general freight
agents and general passenger agents
get from $1,000 to 5000 a year, &C
cording to the size of the system and
its BUSINESS Constitution.

IN a few seconds sever numbers of
eight or ten figures each, or extract
the sixth or seventh root.
NJ. Binet the writer of the Revue ar
ticle, believes that the case furnishes
strong confirmation Of the theory of
partial memories memories, that
is, for particular classes of objects.
maud will repeat after you twenty
five figures, while an ordinary man
could not repeat more than from seven
to ten. If letters are given to maud,
however, he cannot repeat more than
seven or eight.
1t is believed further that his case
indicates the fact that there is such a
thing as an "auditive" as well as a
"visualizing" memory. Most mathe-
NAUTICAL prodigies have professed to
see, mentally, the figures with which
they had to do, while Inaudi invari-
ably declares that he does not see, but
hears them. This goes with his habit
of whispering Or muttering to himself
during the operations, and it has been
noticed that if he tries not to whisper
he is much longer in reaching his
result.
At some time since he was Is years
old maud has learned to read and
write, but ever now, we are told, his
education in many respects is only
rudimentary.
