Some Curious Facts Concerning IheH Soa~s

Attention has been drawn to the facs

Importance of leaf structure should
not be lightly overlooked. Botanists
of unquestionable ability tell us that
full-grown tree in a crowded COM
munity is in reality one of natures
most perfect and complex filters,
straining and purifying the air just
as a filter does impure water. The
important filtering of the tree Is only
carried on under the stimulus of sun
light, leaves having but little or no
power of absorption on cloudy days or
at night. What we call growth ID
plants is merely the power of that par
ticular plant to convert to its own uses
the energy of the sun. Another pecu-
| liarity of leaves may be noticed in this
connections: The general arrange.
ment of the leaves on limbs and stalks
of trees and plants secures between
each sufficient space to prevent one leaf
from interfering with another. And,
not only are leaves so arranged as to
exist independent of each other, but.
in general way, they have taken
upon themselves the forms best adapt

A NEW vegetable is about to be intro
duced to the people of the United States
through the department of agriculture.
1t is the root of the Gala lily, which re-
sembles somewhat in appearance the
ordinary Irish tuber, with the addition
of few fibrous roots that have moth
ing to do with the qualities of the ar
ticles as an esculent. So prolific and
palatable is the root of that plant that
their propagation in many parts of the
United States may reasonably be looked
forward to as an agricultural indus
try of the future.

A Plucky Turkish Girl.

According to recent advices from Con-
stantinople, romantic affair is said to
have happened in the Turkish army.
A short time ago the discovery was
made quite accidentally in Pristina
that a young girl named Hanko had
been serving for three and half years
under her brothers name, Ali Red
scheb, in the Fifteenth regiment there,
and had distinguished herself by espe-
cially good conduct. The sultan was
informed of the unheard-of case q a
woman housing with men for years I'M
yelled. When he learned that the
Young girl had taken this daring step
in order to free her brother, who was
the only support of his mother, from
military service, he bestowed the Sches-
akat order of the third class on her.
and has give her life pension of five
Turkish pounds month. She was OF
course sent home at once, and her
brother remained free from serving

ALMOST the sole hereditary trade in
the United States is that of the deep.
water pilot. AT most of the important
seaports pilotage has been confined for
generations to a few families. The
Delaware pilots congregate at Lewes,
where they have lived these many gen.
erations. To be deep-water pilot in
Delaware is to be man of considera-
ton, with houses, lands and portable
goods ashore, snug home, well-clad
family, and local honors of various
sorts

CHIEF CONSTRUCTOR HINCHBoRN at
the Washington navy yard has made a
calculation showing the enormous force
of the blow that the Camperdown dealt
upon the Victoria. He says the Cam
perdown has a weight of 10000 tons.
and was moving at rate. of ten knots
per hour, or l6. SIS feet per second. This
would give an impact of 46. 900 foot tons
delivered by the sharp ram of the Cam
perdown. That is equivalent to the
blow that would be struck by a railroad
train consisting of six Pullman cars
drawn by the heaviest of locomotives;
say one of 1a0 tons running at \ speed
of iftv miles an hour.

Dropping a Ball 555 Feet.

A few years ago, in 1884, 1 believe,
several well-hnown baseball players
attempted the impossible feat of catching
and holding regulation Spaulding
dropped from the top Of Washington
monument. The experiment was tried
by Trott, Hines, Baker, Snyder and sew.
eral lesser lights in the fraternity, but
none of them succeeded In holding it or
even materially checking its process TO
the ground. The men above wore all
experts al their trades, but it is evident
that they gavs their sports more stten-
ton than their PHILOSOPHY" during
their school days; otherwise they would
have known that body dropped from
such height would be travelling with q
speed of 1877 feet per second at the time
of it's contact with the earth. The reaaon
why no living man could catch and held
a ball travelling with sach velocity is
plain enough by making some hasty
comparisons: The greatest distance a
ball has ever been thrown was 1876 yards
l foot and inch; the longest chit" on
record ls q few inches over 200 yards. In
this. last instance the ball was sent into
the sir at an angle Of fortyfve degrees.
Now, mind this: Allowing the same
ball to have been hit in the same direc-
ton, at the same angle, with sufficient
force to give the velocity at the starting
point that 1t would acquire in falling
from height OF 555 feet, it would have
gone 544 yards instead of fraction over
200 yards. And, then. even think of
trying to catch a ball the instant il
leaves the bat on q 800 yards trip
Ouch Is it any wonder that the boys
let the ball slip through their fingers
when it vas on the home stretch" after
