If Senator Stewart of Nevada had voted

The tariff bill has got back into the
hands OF the conference committee again
and another attempt at agreement is to
be made. 1t is perfectly clear that the
Senate conferees cannot abandon the
coal and iron duties with any hope that
bill so modified will be accepted by
the Senate, and SO even were they
disposed to make that concession it
would be- of no use. The.House has got
to assent to tariff bill with coal and
iron on the dutiable list, or there will
be no tariff legislation at this session.
That is the whole of it, The vital oues

down and accept such bill. We believe
it will. That Mr.. Cleveland will sign

There can't be any question in the
mind of any one of ordinary intelligence

tariff bill, and that he did encourage

The fact is generally known that, ao-
oording to the experiments of the late
Professor Heinrich Hertz at Bonn, the
velocity with which electricity is prop
agated is nearly identical with the vs-
locity OF light The identity may be per-
feet, but experiments have as yet failed
to prove it 90.
In Q recent communication to the
French Academy OF Sciences, NJ. Mas.
cart has shown that tho mean velocity
OF electricity, as deduced from expert
ments, is 1873, miles per second.
This is about per cent greater than
the velocity Of light, which is 1856. 800
miles per second.
1t is believed that if light and elec-
tricity do move with exactly the same
speed the velocity ascribed to light more
closely represents that speed than the
velocity ascribed to electricity, because
the experiments arc most satisfactory
and probably more accurate in the case
of light. Youth Companion.

Italian winter requires tires at times,
but when the Roman took up his abode
abroad as the oonqueror he certainly
lived in chilly climates. In the country
houses he built in England he had care
fully devised heating arrangements,
which are called hypocausts These are
flues running under the tessellated floors.
Fires were lit outside Of the house, and
the hot air passed under the floors. To
do thus much required q knowledge OF
the builders art. with the necessary
precautions against fire. Remnants of
these hypocausts are found today in

Ia1e Was Only Dreary Waste when the
Grasshoppers Came.

Grasshoppers Came.
It was well on In August, and the
drought had done its worst to the corn.
It was hot, sultry day, as parched and
dry as all the days before. The sky was
clear but for the usual haze that never
left it, the haze of wearing heat. About
noon my father came up from the field
and summoned us to see something that
looked like snow. The air about the sun
seemed filled with snowfiakes, thick,
innumerable, and fitting rapidly, as
snowfakes do But snowf1ahcs and the
clear atmosphere and the hot day Were
quite incompatible things. They could
not be snow flakes, but what else could
they be? We racked our brains i'll vain
of cyclone which had lifted leaves and
dust and other such things into the air.
But there was no signs of that, aila ev-
cry one Of the snowfakes was OF regu
lar size, with no such irregularlty as
sticks and branches and leaves carried
into the air would present.
We ate dinner in puzzled uncertainty
as to what was hanging over Us. But

ent what the snowfakes in the sun real
