why We Have Leap Years.

Why is it that there have to be leap
years-that all our years are not of the
same length? 1t arises from the fact
that the year does not consist of an ex-
act number of days. The length of the
day and that of the year are the meas
ures of the motions of the earth. The
globe we live on moves in two ways. It
turns itself around like spinning top,
and at the same time it goes steadily
forward like bullet shot from a gun
1t turns itself once completely around
in twenty-four of our hours, as shown by
the clock; this amount of time we call a
day. Its forward or onward motion
carries it around the sun in path that
is nearly a circle; the time it takes to go
completely around we call year. The
first motion gives us day and night fol-
lowing each other in turn (the word
''day" here having now different
meaning - namely, not twenty-four
hours, but the time of daylight.
The second motion gives us days (that
is, periods of daylight growing gradual
ly longer and then gradually shorter,
one end of the earth turning more to
ward the sun for half the time and the
other end for the other half; and this
brings us summer and winter aud the
seasons. Now the length of the year is
found to be nearly 1851 times the length
of the day Of twenty-four hours; that is
the year is 1895 days long and nearly siS
hours more. 1t is these six hours that
give us our leap years, and it is in the

Friday afternoon the powerful by
draulic dredge of the wharf company was
operating sand pump by which a
twelve inch stream of mud and water
was forced from the bottom through a
line of piping 300 feet in length and de-
posted on the flats south of the levee.
The pressure exerted by these pumps
was so great that hundreds of fish, from
the small mullet and croaker to the red
fish two feet in length, were sucked in,
passed through the tubing and deposited
in the shallow water at it's outlet, where
they were captured by dozens of boys
equipped with dip nets and carried off
in triumph. Over 800 pounds were gath

Fashion in Dogs, Covering.

There is a code of fashion in relation
to the garments worn by ladies' pet
dogs. Its latest edicts in regard to ca
nine fashions set forth that at breakfast
only simple garment of blue or white
flannel should be worn, and a collar at
this hour of the day is considered vul-
gar. For the morning walk a close fit
ting coat of striped or spotted English
cheviot, with mantle well covering the
chest, is correct, with leading chain
and collar of antique silver For the
afternoon drive the costume is of blue
or fawn cloth, with a collar of velvet
hung with tiny medallions, and for
evening dress the pet is arrayed in a
gown of velvet richly embroidered, and
has the family crest embroidered on his
collar.-New York Sun.

A seamless steel boat, which has been
patented by an English engineer, has
been launched from the yard of the
company that was formed to work the
patent at Wakefield, England.
The boat is fifteen feet long, 4 feet
beam, weighs S25 pounds and will carry
six persons. 1t was made from single
piece af steel, compressed into form by
powerful hydraulic machinery.
The company has an extensive plant,
containing a press weighing 1875 tons,
and giving pressure equal to 800 pounds
to the square inch.
It is intended to build the boats for
service on large steamships and vessels
going to countries where the climate is
not and dry, as the nature of the con-
struction Of these boats renders them
more seaworthy than similar craft OF
wood, as they will neither shrink nor
warp. They are fitted in the interior
with wood. and are therefore useful for
pleasure boats. -Philadelphia Record.

A well dressed man entered the Office
of Bangor hotel one cold evening not
long since and told the clerk he was a
stranger in the city, had no money and
asked for a place to sleep The clerk
had pity for him, gave him good room,
and as the night was cold obtained an
extra blanket or two for the bed. The
clerk left the man, who in few min
utes rung a call. The clerk went to the
room, and the man told him he could
not sleep in the room, as he was accus-
toned to have a fire in his sleeping
apartments. The clerk was almost
struck dumb, but managed to recover
sufficiently to tell the man he was too
particular for that hotel, that he had bet
ter seek free lodging elsewhere, and so
the hummer was turned out into the cold
world.-Bangor (Me,) Commercial

Against Fog and smoke.

Movements are on foot in various
quarters having for their object the
abatement of the smoke and fog nui-
sance. The London fogs which de-
scend upon the town are bad enough,
but are made almost unbearable to the
healthiest and most robust people by
smoke. Some extraordinary facts were
elected at the interview granted on Sun
day by the lord mayor to deputation
from South Wales which wanted to in
troduce anthracite coal for house pur-
poses 1t was shown that the coal was
largely used in Paris, Berlin and other
Continental and American cities which
enjoy an atmosphere absolutely pure
compared with London's The deputa-
ton held that anything tending to abate
the fog nuisance should be given fair
trial
Sir John Puleston, who introduced the
deputation, said that there were 700, 900
houses in London and 100000 Chin
neys. On cold day about 10000 tons
of coal were consumed, emitting 48O
tons of sulphur. His argument was that
anthracite coal was cleaner and cheaper
if householders could only be made to
understand it, The mayor thought the
deputation made clear case, not for
trade purposes, but for the public well
fare, and promised his earnest support

Hunting with BIoodhounds.

In lieu of genuine hunting, which is
temporarily at standstill, the novel
idea of starting off a youth on foot and
sending two bloodhounds in pursuit Of
him half an hour later has commended
itself to certain sportsmen residing in
the neighborhood of the Quorn as cap
ital way of killing time. The opening
run was great success, for, after strik-
ing the line of a passing and naturally
very perturbed traveller on the high
road, the hounds were with difficulty
stopped and transferred to that of the
legitimate quarry.
Travelling at a tremendous pace, and
with music almost equal in volume to
the cry of pack of foxhounds, they ran
all around Quorn village, their owner,
regardless of snowdrifts, galloping in
pursuit and taking the fences just as
they came. The end of the run was
somewhat singular, as directly the
bloodhounds got up to the fugitive they
evinced their delight by springing up to
him and trying to lick his face.-Lon-
don Telegraph.

A War Time Relic.

A relic of the war between tie states
is now on the dry dock, receiving such
minor repairs and cleaning as may be
necessary to commission her for harbor
defense. This was the second monitor
ever built, and the record of her useful
ness and her hard service may be seen
in the shot dents of the turrets. These
are painted in a color different from that
of the surrounding iron in order to en-
phasize their story, and they serve as an
object lesson to show that after all,
when compared with our days, how in
nocuous were the boosted shot and shell
of the rebellion. OF course it does not
make much difference whether a giant
is killed by toothpick or hoisted with
petard. He is dead all the same, and
worms will eat him. But we were
proud, and with good reason, of those
big smooth bores and of their charges in
those parlous days.
Then the theory was that for every
ten pounds of shot one pound of powder
was needed, 90-pounder being fired
with nine pounds of powder; today we
have for each pound of powder two
pounds of shot, the 10-inch guns of the
Miantonomoh, the Nantucket's neigh
Dor, using $50 pounds of powder to drive
the 500-pound projectile. The Nan
tucket has also a sentimental interest,
for when the great Ericsson lay in state
on her decks in the harbor of New York,
she was the immediate representative of
what his genius had evoked to save the
country in time of peril, for the original
Monitor went down one dismal day off
our treacherous coast, and left as the
second product of her wonderful type
the little coast defender which now lies
half hidden within the walls of the dry
dock.-Harpsr's Weekly.

were to be slaughtered

our pistols at the cattle as they ran
hither and thither. 1t was all laughter
and shouting. Suddenly, without the
slightest warning, sound that we had
never heard before rose above the clamor
