Around the World.

The time required for a traveller to
circle the earth has been greatly reduced
since the imaginary trip Of Jules Verne's
Phileas Fogg, who succeeded in get
ting around the globe in 50 days in spite
of storms, shipwrecks, Indians and de
tectives. The question how long it would
take now to go around the earth has re-
Gently been discussed in the Antwerp
Geographical society.
The answer given by NJ. E. de Keyser
was 67 days, including the loss Of day
at New York, the journey being made
eastward by way of Yokohama and San
Francisco. But in the near future this
time is likely to be cut down to Is days
and perhaps less, through the compile
ton of the railroad across Siberia, which,
at the present rate Of progress, may be
open from Europe to the Pacific in 10
years.
long distances doubled, it is predicted
that in the coming century traveller
may be able to go around our planet in

NJ de Morgan, chief Of the antiquities
department. claims to have made the
discovery Of the long sought entrance to

near Sakkara. After numerous borings
in the ground surrounding the pyramid
he found, n feet below the surface, q
gallery 230 feet long, cut in the rock
and inclining upward toward the pyra-
mid.
Fifteen chambers were found contain
ing numerous tombs and sarcophagi Of
high functionaries, among them the
sarcophagus Of a queen, all of the twelfth
dynasty, over 1000 years before Christ.

happens in every big electric lighting
station. When switch is thrown, the
circuit is broken When properly done,
another connection is made simultane-

other connection is made. One Of the
men of the Narrangansett company s
works was so nearly blinded that he was
at home three days at one time He was
not. however, as is said to have been the

Hair RAISING FRlGHTS.
Is the "stauding on End" Sensation RcaA
or an imaginary One?

Asa general rule unscicntific opinions
on scientific subject are of but little
value to the student and the investlga-
tor. Yet to be permitted to ask such
questions appears to relieve one toa GER
tain extent, even though the answer be
far from satisfactory.
There is variety of opinions among
the authorities concerning the subject OF
the hair standing on end i'll time OF
extreme fright, some of which arc tena-.
BILE and altogether probable, others ridic-
ulous in the extreme The notion, if no.
ton it be, that the hair occasionally
raises and lifts the hat is of extreme an
tiouity. In the Oldest book in the Bible
Job iv, l4-15) find tho following:
Fear came upon me and trembling,
which made all my bones to shake, Then
spirit passed before my face The HAIR
of my flesh stood up. >
Do YOU remember what Virgil says
about his hero in the celebrated vox fau-
cibus hoeset passage? 1 read from Con-
ington's translation:
While thus in agony pressed
From house 10 house the endless quest,
The pale. sad Specter of my wife
Confron,s me larger than in life.
stood appalled,. my hair erect,
And fear my tongue tied uttcrances
checked.
Macbeth relates lis experience as fol-
lows:
Why do yicld to that suggestion
Whose horrid image doth untiX my hair?
And again in Hamlet we read:
I could tale unfold whose lchtest words
Would harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young
Make Thy two eyes, like stars, start from their
spheres,
Thy knotted and combined locks to part
And each particular hair TO stand on end,
Like quilts upon the fretful porcUAAe
Similar instances of "haiF raising"
being mentioned III literature could be
multiplied. but the above are sufficient,
even without scientific confederation, to
prove that the phenomenon is not freak
of the imagination.
One of the authorities before me gives
this opinion: PLAINLY stated, the hair
raising notion is without Il substantial
basis. In short, the sensation is only an
imaginary one.
Hildreth says, "In such cases the hair
actually stands erect, a result of Il sud
den contraction Of the folhcles- "

Hair and Skin says, The phenomena
OF hair standing erect in cases of extreme
terror cannot satisfactorily be explain
