Scrubblng the Floor.

An incident is told by Dr. Scoffern which illustrates in pleasant way the good humor and geniaiity which be
 lonEed to Michael Faraday as much during his later as his earlier years. Prof Brandc, during tho year 1851, wa lccturing at one time on newly dis covered method of purifying sugar by sugar of lead; while they were in tho laboratory Scoffern accidentally let fall a retoTt of corrosive liquid. In an in stant, he tells us, Prof. Faraday threw some soda upon the floor; then down on his hands and knees we went, slop cloth in hand, like any humble house. maid. Laughingly, I expressed my de- sire to photograph him then and there; he demurred to the pose, begged me to consult his dignity, and began laughing with childish joyousness. Hilarious ly boyish upon occasions he could be, and those who knew him best knew he was never more at home and never seemed so pleased as when making an "old boy of himself, as he was wont to say, lccturing before Q juvenile audi ence at Christmas.

for the murder of Mir. Boyd, her hus. band, by private contract. The testi- mony consists, aside from story of tbe incident of the killing, of great deal of correspondence between Mir. Boyd and the accused aud many other per sons, from which it may be inferred that both had led mis-spent lives and were consequently we'll mated. It also appears from Mr. Boyd's own hand writing that he ought to have been murdered sooner and that if his wife or mistress had delayed longer the firing of the fatal shot, she would have been open to a charge of criminal neglect.
 There seem to be many reasons why the time had matured for dissolution of Mir. Boyd. But above all was his anti pathy to Col. William Lightfoot Viss- cher, we'll known newspaper man, poet and lecturer, last fall residing at Tacoma. The killing of Boyd was the direct result of an insistence on his part that Mas. Boyd should kill Viss- cher, wherefore it served him right. The person of any news paper man saould eaioy an i'm. munity from the effect of deadly wea- pons, but the person of one SO good and pure as Colonel William Lightfoot visscher should be held al. most sacred.

EARTHQuAkE PROPHET.

Something About Dr. Rudolf Falb and
 His Remarkable Work.
 Dr. Rudolf Falb, of Vienna, the emi- nent ncteorologist whose accurate pre- dictions of the recent earthquakes in the Balkan peninsula are attracting so much attention, does not specify where the Ecia1aic coavGisioas will actually take place, for the simple reason that his theory has universal application. To put his theories in as simple fash ion as possible. it may be said that Prof. Falb believes first of all that the dccp-down interior ofthc earth is filled with n molten mass, which is subject to ebb and flow just like the waters of the ocean.
 Between the earth and this molten sheol which is slowly cooling, there is only shell of an average of eighteen miles in thickness, upon which we nor tals liso and love and die, In some places the earth's crust is thicker than in others. Where it is thiuncst the con fined, terrible forces of the under world, chiefly in the form of gas, seek constantly to escape, and when the pr'assnra of the atmosphere around the usually in well defined districts, gener- ally through the volcanic vent holes,
 BuI beyond the constant pressure of gas, Ir Fulb has the theory that the sheoliC molten mass beneath us is sub ject to the influence of the moon, which produces waves, and occasional iy great tidal waves, which sweep round the inner crust of the world with terrific force, shaking the earth in its passage. Dr. Falb publishes every year list of the days on which he expects seismic CuuvuiatOfls. These he calls "criticai days and these days are those when the Eroou ap- breaches close to the earth. This year, from April to August. the satellite will approach at certain times closer to us than usual, and will have, says Dr. Falb, this disturbing influence.
 Dr, Falb is native of Styria, in Austria, the son of q German miller, and is now about fifty years of age. His reputation as an earthquake proph- Gbs "iA4NAA bNN Ah III lD'Vf wan BlNabll strengthened in 1880 in hgram. The city had had visitation of earth quakes, which seemed as if they would never come to an end. In order to calm the panic among the people the city authorities asked Prof. Falb to come from Vienna to give a series of lectures.
 lie gave the people comforting as surance, but told them that there was one critical day yet to be passed, namely, Dccenber 1G, when there would be violent shock, though it would not be as bad as some that had preceded ij December lG passed and no shock, but exactly at midnight his prophecy was fulfilled and he himself was almost thrown out of bed. His fame then spread all over Austria, Germany and the world. He is . scientist whose prophecies command serious scientific attention.

sIMLA THE CENTER.

The effect of the closing et the In. dian mints against private persons is being variously estimated by American fnanciers. American opinions as to the cause of the action of the Indian government are equally diversified but enemies of bi-metalisIn point to the affair as the natural and inevitable re- suit of the contest between gold and silver for supremacy.
 It may be so but bi-metalists do not believe that such contest should be precipitated. In this case it is true that the silver rupee had depreciated in value and upon the announcement Of the wholesale restriction of coinage immediately took on additional value, by which it is attempted to be shown Chat silver had come to form an un- naturally disproportionate part of the currency. A somewhat similar con. dition is prevalent here only it is the value of the silyer product instead of the silyer coin which is being daily forced lower.
 Silver men deny however that in our case tbe depreciation is natural but is the result oI bad financial policy founded on unjust legislation. It may for the same reasons be urged that the condition in India was only appsrent and was forced by the British govern ment at a time 50 critical to the silver cause in this country.
 The cause for the necessity of the &C., ton is not clearly understood by any. but theoretical monometalists who of. Ter in explanation, 8 purpose to pre- serve silver as currency against the natural encroachments of gold, the same argument used by the gold bugs in this country in favor of the more complete overthrow of silver. It is pos sible that g conspiracy of nations has been formed against the white metal.
 The price of silver yesterday, the low est on record, was responsive to the ac. ton at Simla; financial eenters, were shaken from that remote point and it only remains to be seen how long the shock will last whether or not the leg ialation enacted there will be shown t9 be operative throughout the world.

WHIPPING CHILDREN.
Judge Thomas on the Spare the Rod

From the st Louis Globe Democrat
''Spare the rod and spoil the child is the best

and belabored his knee with it as he sat in his
Christmas arm chair at the Lindell Don't
talk to me about persuading and reasoning
with children. The only thing is implicit
obedience, and the sooner you exact il the
better for you and the child. too. Punish
without temper, though. Never show your
anger to your child. That's the trouble with
most parents. They get in a passion them
selves when they whip, and the child is quick
to notice it. and soon begins to resent it and
cherish it as a wrong.
do your whipping more in sorrow than an
ger. Unless you can do it in this wav YOU had
better not try it at all. The worst whippings
ever got in my life were by NV mother. who
did it with tears in her ewes at my suffering
and a PRAYER after it. which took all the resent
ment out of nv heart and made me feel that
she was the greater sufferer. Oh, this latter
day idea of not whipping children is the
supremest rot and Is doing great harm. II
whipping can be avoided, all right, but if
nothing else will do lay it on with slipper or
switch. The thing is to make them mind
Begin the business early in life. too for the
longer 1t is put off the harder the task will
become.
What does a child know about the reason Of
things? Why attempt TO reason with a little
thing which is simply bundle of notions. APP
pettes and impulses, which must. for its own
good, be restrained and directed? Obedience
is the prime education. l tell Won more than

parents and, after leaving them, to violste the
laws of his country. No respect for authority
in a family circle means no respect for the gov

true as preaching"
