Properties of Asbestos.

Some OF the common ideas concern
ing asbestos appear to have resulted
In mistakes Of serious practical
nature. Thus, the usual conception
that it is in nowise affected by heat is
true only to the extent that, though
infusible except at very high temper
allure, it is fact that only very
moderate degree Of .heat-heating TO
low richness in platinum crucible,
for instances required to entirely
destroy the flexibility of the fiber and
render it so brittle that it may easily
be crumbled between the thumb and
finger. Another mistake Is that re-
lating to its high non-conductivity
or power of resisting the action of
the heat-the assumption being that
because asbestos is infusible it must,
OF necessity, be good non-conductor.
The contrary assertion to this is
made and proved on good authority,
namely, that by placing vessel Of
water on sheet of asbestos card
board and applying heat from below,
or more simple proof still, by placing
a piece of wood on a sheet OF asbestos
millboard on a hot stove. II, how
ever, asbestos Is leased out and
worked into fluffy mass, there is thus
obtained a non-conducting material
but 1t is the air inclosed by the fibers
that is the real non-conductor, the
asbestos serving simply to entangle
the air.

A PENNSYLVANIA newspaper Is
prosecuting a man who gave one Of
its reporters q bogus news item,
which was printed In good faith,
stirring up more or less OF a row.
The Pennsylvania law makes 1t a
mlsdemeanor for any person to pro-
cure the publication OF false news,
and In some cases 1t Is proper to have
the statute enforced. The paper
which is. prosecuting in the present
instance, however, has only itself to
blame. The story that caused the
trouble was to the effect that the
wife of a citizen more or less we'll
known had presented her liege lord
with four children at once. The re-
porter to whom the tale was unfoided
didn't take the trouble to verify it.,
as he might have done by walking a
few blocks. He turned it In, the city
editor passed" it and the paper
printed it. Then came the row, and
the paper, In order to be revenged,
seeks to send the joker to the peni-
tcntiary. That is not good newspa-
per work. The journal is showing
its own weakness in prosecuting.
The true remedy would he to get an
other reporter and put the city editor
back In the mailing-room.

A RECENT decision In the United
States ecourt Of appeals for the
0hicag0l.circuit is. important, as it
affects the question of liability for
street car accidents. A man named
Lyman Coffeh attempted to get on
board the Madison street cable cars
at Halsted. The cars had stopped,
but were about ready to start up.
Cohen could have got on the rear car
without difficulty, but he ran for
ward to get on the grip car. He had
taken hold of that car when it started
suddenly and he was thrown to the
ground, receiving injuries. Cohen
sued the street railway company for
damages. in the United States Circuit
Court. On the trial the judge called
the attention Of the jury &c the fact
that he had passed by the car which
he might have boarded without danger
for the purpose Of getting on the grip
car. This raised the question of con-
tributory negligence, and the verdict
of the jury was In favor of the COM
pany. The case was appealed, and
was thoroughly tried in the Court of
Appeals. Judge Romance Bum said:
"The conductor of street cars, having
the safety and even the lives of pa
irons in his keeping has not dis
charged his whole duty TO the public
when he has stopped his train and
waited what may appear, according
to his schedule, reasonable time for
passengers to embark. He is bound
to exercise the highest degree OF dill
gence practicable to protect passen-
gers and prevent accident. He Is
bound to know when he starts his car
suddenly out with full force that no
person attempting to embark is at
that moment with one foot on the
platform and the other on the ground
and with his hand upon the railing Ia

otherwise in position of danger.
