ARTIFICIAL. REFRIGERATION,
Recent Applications of the Science of
Freezing.

Recent Applications of the Science of
Freezing.
The production of artificial cold has,
during the last fifteen years, become
quite an important industry. "Freez-
ing machines" are now among the per-
manent requisites of civilized life.
The refrigeration of perishable ar
ticles of food for transport by ship
stands first on the long list of CONNER
cial applications of the science.
In the cold-air freezing machines now
employed on board ships for the trans
port of meat from Australia, New Tea
land and America, the meat is placed
in large chambers, the walls of which
are double, the interspace being filled
with wood charcoal as a non-conduct-
ing material.
A jet of intensely cold air is delivered
into the chamber at each stroke of the
piston of the expansion cylinder, and
the temperature of the chamber is thus
kept or near the freezing point during
the whole voyage.
Another interesting application of
cooling by means of solutions which
have a very slow freezing point has
lately been made in mines. One of the
greatest difficulties which can occur in
the operation of sinking a shaft is that
presented by a stratum of sand satu-
rated with water. In more than one
case this difficulty has been overcome
by freezing the sand and water into a
firm mass, through which the shaft can
then be easily bored as into a solid
rock.-Golden Days.

Writ on a ruined palace in Kashmir:
1.-THE end is nothing, and the end is near"
Where are the voices kings were glad to hear?
Where now the feast, the song, the bayadtre!
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
And yonder lovely rose: alas my dearl
See the November garden, rank and drear;
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
See. how the r~aindrop mingles with the mere.
Mark how the age devours each passing year;
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
Forms rise anu grow and wane and disappear,
The life allotted thee is now and here;
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
The deash shroud waits thee, and the dark
palled bier,
Alas, sweet eyes and bosom tender, dear:
The tolling bell. the dropping earth I hear;
The end is nothing. and the end is near.
Then vex myself no more with thought aus
tere:
Take what thou canst while thou abidest here.
Seek finer pleasures each returning year:
The end is nothing, and the end Is near.
Bind not myself too much to earthly gear,
But eat the bread of life and take good cheer,
And drink the wine of life and have no fear;
The end is vision, and the end is near.
Joy is the Lord, and love His character;
Be tranquil and rejoicing: oh, my dear!
Shun the wild seas; far from the breakers
steer;
The end is vision, and the end is near.
All. Danish hope ard doubt, regret and fear,
Check the gay laugh, but dry the idle tear,
Search. is the light within thee burning clear:
The end is vision, and the end is near.
List to the wisdom learned of saint and seeri
The living Lord is joy, ard peace His sphere:
Rebel no more; throw down thy shield and
spear.
Surrender all myself: true life is here;
The end is vision, and the end is near.
Forget not this, forget not that, my dear!
IT'S all and nothing, and the end is near.

he SENT A TELEGRAM.
Hereafter He VIII Probabl Know Bette

Hereafter He Will Probably Know Better.
He is in the employ of n of the
largest manufacturing firms in the
city and is also a nephew of the senior
partner. Sometime ago he left on a
Friday evening to stay over Sunday at
a summer resort, which is quite hear
here. When he arrived he found, as
he expected, the girls very, very at
tractive and late Saturday afternoon
decided that he could not e him
self away on Sunday, so he telegraphed
his immediate boss as follows:
DO you need me? If not, / shall
stay.'J
The telegram was, of course, re-
ceived, but no attention paid to it,
and the sender, thinking something
wrong, reported at the office bright
and early Monday morning. Finding
everything all right, and nothing
being said about the tele-
gram, he mentally kicked himself
for coming home. For sew
sral hours he worked along with poor
grace. Finally word was brought to
him that his uncle wanted to see him,
n quaking with fear, he obeyed the
summons. When he entered the old
gentleman's sanctum he was invited to
sit down and make himself quite COM
Portable. After rummaging through
some papers which were on his desk,
uncle, dear. took from them a piece of
yellow paper; turning around, he
looked his nephew straight in the eyes
and said:
MY boy, this telegram was re-
ceived by the head of your department
Saturday afternoon; it reads: DO you
need me? If not, | shall stay and is
signed with your name. Did you send
it?"
YES, uncle" came the answer
meekly.
you did? Then let me tell you.
sir" and the atmosphere became sud-
denly chilled, that l have been here
for forty years and they don'tneed me-"
The telegram was laid down, and the
head of the establishment picked up a
pen and began writing. Nephew knew
that the interview was over. lust as
he was going through the door. he
heard uncle mutter: do they need
me?'-Pittsburgh Dispatch.

ployes of the hotel trying to pull and
push him from the sidewalk.
Now, what is it?' asked the officer.
noting the lads neat appearance, his
tears, and the inequality of the forces
engaged in the struggle.
1--WE want this fellow to move on"
said m of the men, releasing the boys
arm.
Give me my money! cried the boy.
I'll go if you'll give me my money"
Then came an explanation. The boy
had bought two cigars at the bar Of
the hotel. and declared that he had
given the clerk a one hundred dollar
bill in payment. He was offered nine
ty cents in change, and upon refusing
TO take it was hustled into the street.
His statement vas c~ontradicted by
the clerk, who insisted that he had re-
ceived a one-dollar bill from the lad
and returned the correct sum in silver
coin. The policeman looked p%erpleXed,
and the crowd listened attentively to
the two stories. The lad had recovered
voice and self-control and was per-
sistent in his accusation. Finally, the
policeman ad vised him to go before a
magistrate with his grievance, and to
this the youth consented.
On the following morning the lad re-
peated his account of the affair before
the magistrate, and explained clearly
the strange position in which he was
placed. His name was William Daw-
son. He had been ~actinr aS hody-Sary-
ant to a naval officer, and had returned
within a few days from a long voyage.
The officer had given him the one hun

dred-dollar bill. and he had intended
taking it to his mother, who lived in
Baltimore. However, he had stayed
longer in New York than he had at
first expected to, and, having spent his
small bills, had ~purposely gone into the
barroom of the great hotel and bought
the cigars for the sake of changing his
treasure. The magistrate could not
shake the young fellows faith in his
W share of the transaction, and sent
for the hotel clerk.

arrived IN the courtroom accompanied
by several relatives and friends. He

Don't Drink at Meals.

So many people say they can't eat
this and they dare not touch that. The
doctor forbids them coffee or tea, and
so On, when really it is not half so
much what as how they eat. Not one
person out OF ten masticates his food
properly. Nearly everybody drinks
liquids of some sort while eating, which
is very bad, and how many take a glass
Of iced water just before their soup?
The wonder is not that SO many are
sick, but that SO few are.-Chicago

of the friendless colored boy and his
lost money. The magistrate was urged
by Towards friends to dismiss the
charge against him. and, as Dawson
could not substantiate his story, a final
hearing was decided upon and the day
and the hour for it publicly announced.
When the time came the courtroom
was thronged by eager spectators.
They made no secret of their sympathy
for the lad, who entered in charge of a
policeman, and looked like a prisoner
instead of an Howard was
self-possessed and talked cheerfullv to
his crowd of supporters. The magis-
trate was perfectly impartial and de-

A noise at the door interrupted the
magistrate, and a tall man in citizens

son sprang forward with d wild cry of
joy, and the newcomer addressed the
magistrate:

of character. l should also like to sug-
gest that this unfortunate occurrence
must be the result of a mistake on
either side. If your honor concludes to
dismiss the complaint | will be respon-
slble for Dawson's future good conduct,
and I will employ him again"
The magistrate accordingly dismissed
the complaint. Howard left the court
room with his companions, and Daw-
son, having thanked the justice and the
officer for their kindness, followed
Lieut.. Summers.
The case, however, was not ended.
People interested in it discussed it in
and out of the press. Money was for
warded for Dawson from many sources
and letters solving the mystery were
printed freely.
The climax was sensational. One
morning a washerwoman who piled her
industry in the vicinity of the navy
yard appeared before the magistrate
who had befriended Dawson. She pro-
duced a one hundred dollar bill and
told this story: She had done some
work for Dawson and he had paid her
with a bill. He said it was a one-dol-
lar bill, and she had given him a small
amount of change and put the bill in a
stocking toward her rent. On the
previous day she had counted her saw
ings for the first time in weeks, and to
her wonder and co ncern had discovered
the bill that had made SO much trouble
and talk.

was the general remark. But was he?
The affair was allowed to drop, but
certain strange rumors were in the air.
Some people were aware that Howard
was no longer employed in the hotel.
Lieut.. Summers, when he told this in
cident, always explained that the bill
returned by the washerwoman was
worn and crumpled, yet he had selected
for Dawson a perfectly new one hun
dred dollar bill.

gal, but that did not justify him in
