The Weight Of Crowds.

The load which is produced by dense
crowd Of persons is generally taken atS0
to 100 pounds per square foot and is con-
sidered to be the greatest uniformly dis
tributed load for which floor need be
proportioned. That this value may be
largely exceeded in az actual crowd was
pointed ont by Professor W. C. Kernot
Of the Melbourne university, Australia,
in a paper before the Victorian Institute
of Engineers. In an actual trial class
Of students averaging 1853. 5 pounds each
in weight were crowded in lobby cor,
tanning 1898 square feet, making an ay-
erage floor load of 134.7 pounds. There
was still room to have placed another
man, which would have brought up the
loading to 1881 pounds per square foot.
Professor Kernot also quoted from
Stoney, who placed So Irish laborers
averaging 1873 pounds each in weight in
an empty ship deckhouse measuring 81
square feet floor area. This was a load
of 1914 pounds per square foot In an
other test, with 70 laborers crowded into
a hut 8 feet by 8 feet 8 inches, Stoney
produced load of l43 pounds pei
square foot and estimated that two OF
three more men could have been squeezed
IN. tappears from these experiments
that while the figures ordinarily assumed
of 80 to 100 pounds are sufficiently cor.
rect for spaces on which there is nc
cause to induce the collection of great
crowds, larger figures, say 40 to 15C
pounds per square foot. should be used
for railway stations and platforms, en-
frances and exits to places of public as
semblies or of Office buildings, bridge
sidewalks, pavements over vaults and
other places where dense crowds are
likely to gather.-Engineering News.

4 pending measure should cease when it
had been fully and fairly debated. The
minority was compelled to abstain from
.dilatory and obstructive motions, and in
asmuch as the highest expression 81. each
members will was his vote, no power
above or behind that was allowed to any
one by the misuse of parliamentary de-
vices. The result was that sthe List Con-
gress legislated. j.
There is no doubt that Speaker Crisp
and the Democrats of the succeeding
Congress nightly desired to continue
these rules. They had every opportuni-
ty of doing so. The Republicans were
then in the minority, but they asked for
themselves only what they as a majority
had been willing to concede to the Dem.
ocrats. But the Speaker and his advi-
sers lacked the moral courage to make
the confession that would have been re-
quired of them if they had adopted the
Reed rules. They preferred to legalize
obstruction, and afterward to putt down,
when they could, by arbitrary rulings
from the Char. But they are now ap-
preaching task which is too much for
a Speaker to undertake unaided. He
knows this, and all others of his party
interested il the performance Of the task
know it too. One by one they are ap-
pearing in interviews, declaring that the
Reed rules must be adopted. They must
choose between the humiliation of con-
Tossing a fault or Naturalization of max
ing an utter failure oflegislation. They
would better make the first confession,
and make it quickly and completely.
Republicans, as we said before. may
smile a little, and call to mind the wild
scenes in the House four ears ago when
its .ntire Democratic contingent were
packed in the aisles and crowded around
the Speakers desk, shaking their fists in
his face and calling him tyrant and a
car. But this is small matter in COM
parison with the necessity of passing the
repeal bill.-New York Tribune.

PardOning of Anarchists,

Gen. Adam E. King, who was consul
to Paris until the appointment of his
successor, Samuel E. Morss, of Indian
apolis, has returned to this country to
remain until this fall, when he will go
to Paris for the winter. He reached here
on the steamship La Touraine on Satur-
day. Among other things which Gen.
King talked about to the reporters who
called upon him was the Rrdoning Of
the Chicago anarchists by Gov. Altgeld,
of Illinois.
81 think it was an outrageous piece of
business that cannot be too severely con-
demned or too strongly" he SAID. at
was an outrage, not only upon the law,
but upon the aw-abiding people of the
whole country. The anarchists of Paris
approve the action of the Governor, of
course. The anarchists of that city keep
close watch on things of that sort. They
frequently sent threatening letterst to me.
Some of the letters contained threats to
blow up with dynamite the house in
| which was living. Then received 9TH
er letters merely telling me that it was
about time for me to leave the city. Of
ten letters would be couched in the low
est slang, and frequently the language
used would be of the most indecent
character. These letters came in the
greatest numbers about the time of the
execution of Ravachol. have preserved
some of these letters. and I think that
they make an interesting souvenir of nv
experiences abroad. The only motive
that ever could see for making me the
target of this thing was that I was an
American consul, and in this country
some anarchists had been hanged.
"When the recent Paris riots began,'
said the General, changing the subject,
s:this did not amount to much. Later

other classes Of people who are always
anxious to make disturbance, took it
up. The presence of the militia had a
remarkable effect in quelling the disturb
ance. The commercial and industrial
condition of France is prosperous. While
the drought ruined the hay, wheat and
oat crops, it was just the sort of weather
for the grapevines, and the wine product
this year will be large. France is not
paying much attention to our silver dis
cussion, land I do nothear Of many French
men who are coming to the worlds fair.
There is no cholera scare in France now.

Amends to Speaker Reed.

Republicans will not be expected to
look without smile and, indeed, sever
al different kinds of smile, upon the
nervous twitching which has seized those
Democratic statesmen who feel them
selves especially charged with RESPONSE
bility for the action Of Congress on the
silverbill repeal. This nervous twitching
takes possession OF these statesmen
whenever they contemplate the subject
of the Congressional rules. If there is
any proposition to which, by their own
acts, they are all committed, whethe
they are Free Traders, Free Silver men,
Mugwumps, Jeffersonian Democrats,
Jacksonian Democrats, Old-Fashioned
Democrats or what not, it is to the pro-
position that organized obstruction on
the part of the minority to the will of
the majority is necessity to liberty and
a fundamental principle of the Democra-
tic party. The blood of the martyrs has
corsecrated this doctrine. :. .-. ~
1t was avowed deliberately, not as a
matter of impulse. 1t was an unneces-
sary thing to do. No party exigency
sanely considered, compelled it. The
Republicans Of the List Congress sought
as Republicans ever do and as Democrat
don't, to carry out the pledges they hat
made in their party platform. The.

jority, the responsibility and the obliga

step before the entire Democratic minor

prevent any and all Republican legisla

A Remarkable Bedstead From Bomba,

"A UcuATAaOA0 OeuSCe6O from BOMBAY
A Bombay man has constructed a
bedstead priced at 10000 rupees. It is
thus described: 1T has at its four cor
ners four full sized, gaudily dressed
Grecian damsels- at the head
holding banjos, while those on the right
and left foot hold fans. Beneath the
cot is a musical box which extends the
whole length of the cot and is capable
of playing 12 charming airs. The music
begins the moment tho least pressure
has been brought to bear from the top,
which is created by one sleeping or sit
ting. and ceases the moment the indi-
vidual rises. While the music is in
progress the lady banjoists at the head
manipulate the strings with their FIN
gers and move their heads, while the
two Grecian damsels at the bottom fan
the sleeper to sleep.

The Responsibility for:Altgeld.

Much light has been thrown on the
motives that moved Governor Altgeld te
pardon the convicted Anarchists. Little
by little the proof is accommodating of s
political bargain for the delivery OF LII
nois to the Democratic party. The forces
of disorder were enlisted for Altgeld es-
pecially and against the Republican can,
didates from the highest down with
hearty unanimity which this shocking be-
travail of trust explains There is a close
affinity between the Anarchists and the
criminal classes generally, and it was
easy to solidify them in favor OF the
Democracy and Altgeld when the reward
was to be the release of their friends and
leaders from imprisonment and the vlo-
lent arraignment by the highest official
of the State of all the institutions in which
law is embodied and by which order is
enforced. The knaves who wish to Kill,
burn and plumber without hlndranee OBJ
tanned from Altgeld much more than a
release of their comrades. They obtained
a public censure from the handspring OF
civil authority directed against all the
officials on whom the people must rely
for the protection of life and property,
In behalf of Anarchy as an institution,
in behalf of bomb throwers, agitators and
demagogues and no less in behalf of as
sassins, burglars and rogues generally,
the chief of the state has said to the
courts and the police: "You are too zeal
Gus, too active, too earnest. You must
let these people alone.'
At the Windsor Theatre meeting of
Anarchists in this city Friday night, held
to glorify Altgeld and his audacious
misuse of power, John Edelman, one
of the speakers and one of the most dan
gerous men in the Anarchist community
said that while the Chicago gang were
on trial, Altgeld had 'freQuently declared
his opinion that the trial was an outrage
He said their conviction was declared by
Altgeld to he a judicial murder, and he
professed that Altgeld's possession of
these views was we'll known to all Anar
chists. 1t was well-known to all anar-
chists, it could not have been unknown
to other people, and it renders his nomi-
nation by the Democrats peculiarly dis
graceful. That party as party is justly
chargeable with gross public crime. It
chose Altgeld, either because of his rela-
lions with the enemies of social order, or
having chosen him, it ratified his bargain
with them and procured the advantage
ticket. 1t leagued itself with Anarchists
rioters and men who declare against the
rights Of property and the existence Of
law. It exhibited itself,as it rarely fails
to do when occasion offers, as g patty
which will go anywhere and do anything
to get votes, The minded people
of this country are taught by the eleva-
ton and conduct of Altgeld what they
should not require to be Taught again,
that law is never safe in the administra-
ton of the Democratic party. It draws
to itself by natural affinities all those
elements If the public which menace the
rights of property and the orderly pro-
gress Of the people.-New York Tribune.

Tho Farmer and Politics.

The prosperity of a farmer to-day de-
Ponds more on the methods he employs
than on governmental rule. Many farm
ers who are alive to their own interests
in other things are careless in buying
seeds. They seem to think that q seed
is a seed and there it ends. If there
wal more knowledge about seeds and
greater care exercised in their selection,
there would be richer crops and better
returns.
Realizing this, D. M. Ferry & Co., the
famous seed firm of Detroit, Mich, have
embodied in their Illustrated Annual
for 1893, much valuable information
about seeds and their selection. Itcon-
tains the knowledge cleaned from many
years practical experince in the seed
business, and the newest and best things
about gardens and gardening. Such a
book issued by a firm of unquestioned
reliability is the highest value to every
one who plants a seed. Although the
cost OF printing and embellishing it
with beautiful illustrations has been
great, it is sent free to any n making
application to the above firm.
A bunch Of keys has been handed imtu
