IN OLD OCEANS DEPTHS.
Living Lanterns That Are Borne About
Light Up the Darkness.

Living Lanterns That Are Borne About 10
Light Up the Darkness.
Away down in the dark depths of the
ocean there are living lanterns that are
borne about to light up the darkness. A
queer fish called the midshipmite carries
the brightest and most striking of all
these sea torches.
Along its back, under it and at the
base Of its fins there are small disks that
glow with a clear phosphorescent light
like rows of shining buttons on the
young middy's uniform-in this way it
gets its name, midshipmite, by which
young sailorsin the navy are often called.
These disks are exactly like small
bullseye lanterns with regular lenses
and ~refectors.
The lenses gather the rays, and the re-
fectors throw them out again. There
is alayer of phosphorescent cells between
the two, and the entire effect is as per-
feet as if made by some skillful optician.
Many other fish have "~refectors,"
many have "lenses," but the ''midship-
mite" is the only kind that has such
splendid specimens Of both.
The fish is SO constructed that when it
is frightened by some devouring sea
monster it can close its lenses and hide
itself in the darkness. 1t can turn its
lantern of and on at will, and then it is
always "flled" and ready when wanted.
Another marine animal has a luminous
bulb that hangs from its chin, and thus
throws the light before it to warn it Of
the approach of enemies. Still another
upholds a big light from the extremity
of the dorsal fin. Others, again, have
constant supplies of a luminous oil thai
runs down their sides from the fins, max
ing a bright and constant light al
around them.
Most of the iellyfsh are phosphor
escent. These live far down on the yer,
floor of the ocean, where it is Away
dark and gloomy. The jewellers in thes
watery depths are provided with light
of their own shining bodies and fins
which illumine their home with
strange though no doubt cheerful glare

N1achipo work and handy srk,

1t is to be remembered that, notwith-
ing all we hear of the vast superiority
of machine over handwork, this ma
chinery must itself possess as great, il
not greater, accuracy and refinement
than the product manufactured by it.
No machine can in this respect be SUI
perior to its maker. 1t can only produce
sufficiently accurate and good work at
a lower cost than if made by him. Tho
first sewing machine Of a kind, built by
skilled machinists or toolmakers, is at
least as good and as accurately made as
any subsequently manufactured by ma
chinery, and the same men can dupli-
cate it more exactly than can any ma
chinery, but machines built thus would
cost far more than people could afford to
pay for them, and that is all there is to
the talk of the substitution Of the Ger
tainty and accuracy Of maehinery for the
uncertainty and haccuraoy Of hand
work. "-Scribner's Magazine.

An Ascending Meteor.

Professor Won Nissl has been investi-
eating the path Of the meteor that APP
peared July z, 1892, and was seen both
In Austria and Italy. The result of this
computation has shown that undoubt-
eddy the path Of the meteor at the latter
end of It's course was directed upward.
The length Of its path measured lilo
kilometers from its nearest approach TO
the earth surface (08 kilometers above
the surface) to the point where It disap-
peared, which was at a height OF 1865
kilometers. This Is about the first time
that thepath of a rising meteor has been
so accurately investigated Mature.

rIImInnI. IN HareaILr.

am able, after IN experience
Of more than forty years with
nearly twenty thousand juvenile
delinquents to indorse views touch
ing the power Of heredity in Grim
inals as a predisposiug cause to
crime. Among this large number
Of young offenders 1 can state
with entire confidence that not one
per cent were children born Of
criminal parents; and with equal
confidence / am able to say that
the common cause of their delin-
quency was bad parental training,
in bad companionship aud 10 a
lack Of wholesome restraint from
evil associations and influences.
1t was this knowledge hat led to
the establishing of the House of
Refuge nearly three-quarters of a
century ago.
But whatever be the cause of
criminal offenses, the criminal
should not be permitted to contin-
ne his wrong course without a
strong effort being made for his
rescue, and this duty is recognized
in the establishment of the Elmira
Reformatory, especially designed
for the treatment of first offenders.
1t is a we'll established fact that a
judicious system of training and
education intelligently and faith
fully applied to juvenile delin-
quents results In the recovery of
a large majority, at least eighty
per cent, to good citizenship and
honest living. With adults a like
result is more difficult and uncer-
tain; but even these, when brought
under wholesome dicipline and in
struction like that afforded 10y the
admirable and common sense sys-
tenn at Elmira, yield a gratifying
return.
But if crime is a human disease
and the criminal is a viclim Of an
inherited moral defect, SO that his
criminal acts are involuntary, then
are our criminal laws unjust and
our penal system a cruelty. If on
the other hand, however, we have
convincing evidence TO the contra
ry, and we surely have, then that
system of treatment which prom.
ises most for the criminals recov.

The Passion Flower.

A great many lovers of flowers who
have not made botanical lore and legend
o study often ask themselves or some
friend why the ''passion flower" is so
called, and not one time in adozen is the
correct answer given. 1t was SO named
by the first Spanish settlers in the new
world because they imagined that they
saw in it a representation of our Lords
passion. The flamentous processes are
taken to represent the crown Of thornsi
the styles, the nails used in fastening
the Saviour TO the cross; the anthers, the
marks of the five wounds the leaf, the
spear that pierced his side; the tendrils,
the cords or whips with which he was
s%courged; the column Of the ovary, the
upright Of the cross; the stamens, the
hammers; the calyx, the GLORY or halo
the white tint, purityi the blue tint,
heaven.
Calvary clover" is a still nor won
derful representation of the crucifxion.
In that flower persons of vivid imagina-
ton can see in the meanderings Of the
colors Of the petals the outlines of a
cross with tie figure of a man stretched
prone upon it.-St. Louis Republic.

The SItnation In BrazIl.

Mem York Press.
The late advices from Brazil show
that the civil war is simply a strug-
gle between two rival leaders for
power, and there is probably no
question as to the restoration of the
empire involved in it. The empire
is dead beyond resurrection III Bra
I'll as in Mexico. Should Admiral
Custodio de Mello succeed in over
throwing President Peixoto it is
not likely that the admiral would
invite any prmceling of the of Bra
CANA to enjoy the prize he had so
arduously won. As for Peixoto,
he has proclaimed himself a dicta-
tor, and Brazil would have no room
for a dictator and an emperor at
one and the same time. Therefore,
if any princes in France, Portugal
or Gotha have been building hopes
of the Brazilian crown on the pre-
sent outbreak, they may as well
surrender fancies that will never
be realized.
The origin Of the b razilia
trouble appears to be the disap-
proval by President Peixoto of a
bill passed by the congress render
ing it illegal for any citizen who
had filled the Office of vice presi-
dent of the republic to hold the
presidency. This bill was no doubt
aimed at some creature of Peixoto
The latter had himself been vice
president before he took the pre-.
sidential chair upon the forced re.
tirement Of F%onseca, and Admira
De Mello and Peixoto were active
associates in compelling Fonseca t,
retire. In order TO get rid Of tht
|, president the admiral has beer

THE STAR OF THE EAST.
Narrow Escapeeof etlie Crew From the
Fdhndered Vessel IA

The mem bers of the crew of the
schooner Star of the East, which went
down on Cashes bank last Wednesday
have reached Gloucester. They say the
schooner left Portland Monday, Bound
home. Tuesday it reached Cashes. A
strong wind was blowing and heavy
sea was kicked up. About o'clock a
sea broke over The vessel, tearing the
rudder away. Some of the butts were
started on the port side and the craft be-
gan TO leak badly. Captain McRae put
the vessel on the port tack in order that
as little wafer as possible might run in
The pumps were also kept working all
night In the morning. the sea had gone
down alittle, but, despite all efforts,
the water gained on thepumps. When
they werein their mostsdesperate straits,
a vessel was sighted beating up to them.
She proved to BE the schooner Volunteer
of Gloucester. Che transfereuce of
the men in dories to the Volunteer was
attended with much danger, but was ac-
complished at last
The Star of the East was built at Essex
in 1857. She was owned by Nat Webster
and Captain McGrady She was insured
in the Boston Marine Insurance company
for $1400 on the vessel and $500 on the
outfit.
