The Art OF Tying = Knot.

A veteran sailor the other day made
the remark: IF those people whose
business requires them to handle ropes
and taclslings would only learn the
true art of tying knots many serious
accident in life might be averteo.
There Is not a single child in the land
but should be taught early in life to
make at least couple of scientific
bitches. This is one of the first duties
of sailor, and his selection of knots
covers the whole fields of. entangle-
ment. The novice is hardly on ship.
board and out of sight of land when
he is called up to tie together at the
end of a rope his soiled shirt and
clothes that need good dousing. 1t
may seem trifling thing, but it is
just rs important to know how 10 tie
the correct knot Is to be good swi i'm
mer."

A REMARKABLE FACT.
Sounds Impossible, But May Be Very
Easily Demonstrated.

Sounds Impossible, But May Be Very
Easily Demonstrated.
Two persons may be born at the
same place and at the same moment
exactly, and yet, after fifty years have
rolled around. they may both die at
the same instant, and still one be more
than 100 days older than the other.
think hear some one say ''impossi-
blc." and elbow could such state Of
affairs be brought about?' but it is
not impossible; it is simply q curious
astronomical and geographical fact,
very easily proven. A calm reelection
shows that this oddly turns on very
obvious problem in circumnavigation.
Suppose, now, that two persons were
born Mt the same instant in Philadel-
phia, from whence trip around the
world may easily be made in one year;
if one of these persons constantly goes
toward the west in fifty years he will
be fifty days behind the stationary in
habitants; if the other sails equally as
fast toward the cast he will be fifty
days ahead of them. One, therefore,
will have seen 100 days more than the
other, though they were born at the
same instant, lived continually in the
same latitude and died together.

Features OF tho Day.

Under the influence OF higher quota
tons from London. the stock market
here opened strong and higher. The bull
ardor was somewhat checked by a sud
den slump in Sugar from 81 to So rs.
The proposed reduction of the duty on
refined sugar makes this stock a target
for the bears, and they are talking con-
tidently OF n further decline, regardless
Of what the general market may do.
Burlington 4 Quincy Is another favor
tie of the short sellers. and declined
from 50 3-S to 81 IL. outside OF the
shares named speculation was charac-
terized by a very strong tone, and higher
prices were the rule.
The brisk Investment demand for first
class bonds and stocks acts as n power
ful lever, and the bears find 1t II great
stumbling block.
The fact that progress is making tow
ards a reorganization of the Union Pa
cific has a favorable influence on West
ern and southwestern properties. So
long as there VAS n prospect of a disin-
%teGiation of this vast system the market
was menaced andthere was little dispo-
sition to trade on the bull side Of a
number OF stocks.
American sugar preferred declined 1 to

The lack of activity in the stock mar
ket was more than compensated for by
Its strength. Chicago Gas moved up on
"A vague rumor that the next dividend
Will be paid In cash instead OF scrip. and
the stock made n good leader.
New England and Western Union were
features. Both scored materially higher
figures, and were In good demand.
The Changers were not as strong as
the rest, more particularly burlington
IL quincy but there was an impression
that this stock was being kept down for
the purpose of enabling Shorts In other
parts of the list to cover up.
There were rumors of an impending
settlement between the Rock Island

holder of the bonds of the latter COM
pany. n II a settlement is made will

DIR. EDISON APPEALED TO.
He Will Decide l. O'Rourke Has
SMALLPOX or Skin Disease.

ELIZABETH, n. j.. Nov. 29.-Dr.
Cyrus Edison, OF the New York Board
of Health, has been appealed to as an
expert in contagious diseases to examine
James O'Rourke, now in the Newark
pest-house.
O'Rourke was sent to hte p~est-house
Mt this place by County Physician
O'Rci!ly, who pronounced him suffering
from small poN. The physicians at the
pest-housc declared O'Rourke had simply
Ii skin disease resembling eczema.
While they were discussing the matter.
O'Rourke quietly walked out of the lnsti-
tuition and made his way to Newark,
whore he was arrested. declared 10 be
suffering from smallpox, n sent to the
pest-house there.
Naturally the matter aroused a great
deal OF feeling between the medical fra.
ternity in Newark and this city. and
finally DIR. Edison was appealed TO. He
will go to Newark this afternoon and
make the desired examination.
Tn matter OF O'Hourke's escape from
the ~pest-housc will come up later,
