Seeing the sun on the Right

ON Gartenlaube.
land I was told something which
Others may believe. but which | at
least do not. namely, that the Phpni.
clans on their circunInavigatioD Of
L'bya had the sun on their right ~
so says Herodotus in the fourth book
Of his history. 1t appeared to him
impossible that the Phunicians whom
Pharaoh Necho had entrusted with
circumn svigstion OF the African Con-
tinent, and who, starting on their
long three years voyage from the
Red Sea, could, as they said, have
had the sun on their right hand
when they crossed the southern ex-
tremity of the continent from east to
west.
The Phpniclan account was never
theless correct.
While an observer, standing on the
northern hemisphere and directing
his glance in the direction of the suns
meridian, sees the sun pursuing its
daily apparent course from left to
right, an observer on the southern
hemisphere, with his face also toward
tue meridian sees the sun pursuing
its apparent course from right to left
Similarly the daily motion of all
the stars is reversed in relation to the
spectator. In the passage from north
to south, across the equator, the sun
which at first appeared to be in the
south, comes nearer and nearer until
1t is in the zsnith. after which it is
seen on the other side.
A similar change occurs with all
the stars visible from both hemis-
pheres. II at specified hour of the
evening the belt of Orion is horIz )ntal
at a given place in the northern
hemisphere, the line of the direction
of the three stars becomes first verti-
cal as we near the equator, and PASS
ing further south, we see it again re-
cover its noriz )ntal direction, but
with the whole constellation upside
down.
The moon is also subject to this
universal law; in the southern hemis.
/ phere the waning moon presents the
same appearance as the crescent moon
In the northern hemisphere, and vice
versa

A Bloody Shirt BIuff.r

Yesterday afternoon a man named
Fred Whedan, who is known in this
section as being a typical dead
beat" called at the residence of Mrs
DeSoria, on Third street, between
Avenues D and f and asked for some
food. This bold request and the
manner in which he talked rather
frightened Mrs. Desoria, who went to
the door, and she refused him telling
him to 60 to a house near by, (point-
ing to the house referred to-. Upon
this refusal to comply with his wis hes,
he displayed the front part OF his shirt,
which was covered with blood, to
scare the lady, and demanded of her
a clean shirt. This was also refused
and the ladies, for several had heard
the conversation and had gone 10 the
door 10 see what was the ouble,
were almost terror stricken at the
mans actions. He, however, after
seeing that there was no opportunity
of getting what he wanted, made his
escape. The police authorities were
notified of the affair and close
watch was kept until about 6 o'clock
when Officer Hale arrived at
the police headquarters with the
coward He was charged as
being a susnicious character and
placed beh nd the bars, and this
morning Officer Hale requested the
recorder to postpone the trial Of the
case until tomorrow, when he would
have important city witnesses pres
ent. The case then was laid over.

The Fence of the Future.

There are number of strong points in
favor of the Tuna Hedge as the fence OF
the future, the advantage of this kind OF
a fence may be briefly Enumerated as
follows: It becomes perfect barrier
against all kinds of domestic animals
after three years growth; does not sap
or impoverish the ground, being strict
ly atmospheric plant, and will not grow
from the seed or by cutting the roots
hence will not spread, it grows only to a
certain uniform height and therefore
does not require trimming, it has been
thoroughly and successfully tested in
northern climates and does not kill out
in the winter time, it serves the double
purpose of usefulness and ornamen-
tation, as it is an evergreen and blooms
during three months of the year, an in
vitation is extended to thoroughly test
its merits, and every one will be con-
vinced that it possesses all the advant-
ages claimed for it. Messrs. johnson &
Payne are now taking orders for the
Tuna Hedge and have met with uniform
success. Any one wishing living grow
ing fence something that will not spread
and will be fence for all time to come
should give their orders now and get
their fence started this fall.

INCREASE OF WAGES.

These are the days when cold facts
and figures talk for the Mckinley bill,
and when the calamity shriekers are
finding themselves stranded here and
there without an occupation. Recently
some interesting statistics from the
democratic Boston Herald regard
ing the marked increase in the
manufactures of that city, as well as in
the number of men employed and
the yearly wages received by them, were
published. Now the census Office comes
forward with official bulletins covering
the manufacturing OF sixteen cities, and
showing the advance that has been
made within the past decade both by
the manufacturers and the workingmen.

way, or Obliged to lay out money IN the ro-
pair of roads already established, aud. when
other towns in the vicinity are deemed to
be especially benefited ami accommodated
by the use and travel by its inhabitants,
such towns so burdened may, by its select
men petition the County Court OF the couu-
ty for the appointment of commissioners to
act in tho premises and Swauton did so and
the following commissioners were appointed:
Hon. c. J.. Hogan of 81. Adams, a. f.

The commissioners report says that the
cost for repairing the highway will amount
to 81 = 900 and the petitioners Of tho town
