The whale fishery was at ono time

1854. whom COZ ships and banks,

the neet had dwindled down to 1863
vessels. and 1t Is doubtful II fifty arc

kerosene and the increasing scarcity
OF whales seem to be the causes OF
this decline. Some remarkable voy-

An Experiment Showing tho vast Prc,.

The peculiar physical conditions
81 the deep seas may be briefly stated
to be these: It IL absolutely dark SO
lar as actual sunlight Is concerned;
tho temperature Is only few
degrees above freezing point; the
pressure ia enormous; there is little
or no movement Of the water; the
bottom Is composed OF q uniform,
fine. soft mud, and there is NO plant
life. All OF these physical conditions
one can appreciate. says the Phila-
delphia Press, except tho enorm GUS
pressure. At depth Of $500 faith
oms the pressure is. roughly speak
Ing, two and one-half tons per square
lnch-that is to say, the pressure
per square inch upon the body of
every animal that lives at the bot
tom OF tho Atlantic ocean is about
twenty-five times greater than the
pressure that will drive q railway
train. Professor Moseley describes
an interesting experiment in point
madc during the voyage OF the Chal-
longer Mr.. Buchanan Dramatically
sealed at both ends q thick glass
tube full OF air several inches in
length. He wrapped it In flannel
and placed 1t in q wide copper tube
Ono Of those used to protect tho
deep sea thermometers whom sent
down with the sounding apparatus.
This copper tube was closed by q lid
fitting loosely and with holes In the
bottom OF 1t, and tho copper bottom
OF the tube similarly had holes bored
through it. The water thus had free
access to tho interior OF the tubo
when 1t was lowered into the soa
and the tube was necessarily con-
structed with that object In view,
so that, In its ordinary use, the
water would freely roach the con-
tanned thermometer. The copper
case containing tho scaled glass was
sent down to depth OF 1000 faith
oms and drawn up again. 1t was
then found that the copper wall of
the case was bulged and bent inward
opposite tho place whore tho glass
sNSS A"ys JuoV I'D IL ~ utu DCcu CTun.
Piled inward by being violently
squeezed. The glass tube itself.
within Its flannel wrapper. was found,
when withdrawn, reduced to fine
powder, like snow almost What had
happened was that tho sealed glass
tube, sinking to gradually increasing
depth. had held out long against the
pressure. but this at last had become
too great for tho glass to sustain
and tho tube had suddenly given
way. So violent had been the col
lapse that the water had not had
time to rush in at the perforations,
but instead had crushed the copper
wall and brought equilibrium in that
manner. and this process Is exactly
tho reverse Of an explosion and is
termed by Sir Wyville Thompson an
''implosion."

OF Lake Michigan. 10 both places It was
deemed necessary to partako freely OF beer or
wine, or at least to put n little brandy or
whisky into tho water. Occasionally one Of
the visitors had satisfactory evidence, from
his personal experience, that his cautious
friends had reason for sounding a note OF
warning on this point. After eating an un-
ripe melon, walking about 10 the hot sun for
three or four hours looking at the exhibits,
drinking several glasses OF lemonade, and
