LUzOS B. MORRIS.

rms community was sadly startled yesterday by the news that Luzon B. Morris was dead. Wednesday he took part in paying the last honors to an- other distinguished citizen of New Ha- ven. Yesterday he himself was stretch ed on the lone couch of his everlasting sleep" What a sharp reminder to all of us, who, in the hurry and hustle of life, almost forget its uncertainty.
 MT. Morris career was unusually long, useful and successful, Persistent and far-seeing, able. steady and upright, he was we'll fitted to win in the struggle into which he found himself thrust ty the narrow circumstances of his early days. He did win and his victory was of most solid and substantial charac- life. His battle was silently. sturdily and honestly fought, and his reward was the reward of merit. His quality was early recognized by his fellow cit izens, and forty years ago he began to serve the public as a member of the legislature. Since then he has been judge of probate, several times mem- Der of the legislature, member of im- portant State commissions, conspicuous in the management of schools and gov- ernor of the State. And all this with out self-seeking or tricks. The people have trusted him and appreciated the value of his services. He has been wor- thy of their trust and has faithfully re- paid it. An examination of his public record will show that, without noise or flourish of trumpets, he has done much that is of solid and lasting value for his State.
 As a lawyer and a business man MT. Morris occupied a place such as few men fill. He was the safe and the trusted counsellor and friend of many whom death had deprived of their nat ural guardians. His ability and his integrity drew kind of business to him that suited him and to which he was suited. He was notably successful l in it. He had great skill in handling estates and his skill was always honestly used for the benefit of those | dependent upon 1t. As a consequence he acquired reputation and a practice such as are held up as examples in the law schools and are admired by all who admire nobly and honestly won success. And his superior business qualities attracted attention and use outside the limits of his profession. In his private life MT. Morris was friendly, equable, quietly companion able, loyal, kind, tolerant and just. He as we'll as the serious side of things. He lived in all respects temperately, was slow to wrath and charitable in thought, speech and deed. He was a | thoroughly good citizen and punctilious in the performance of the duties of a good citizen. He was deeply and truly religious and a helpful member of his church. He was interested in all that
 was for the good of those among whom he lived and was always ready to do
 what he could to promote good causes.
 His loss will be long and deeply felt
 by many who have had an opportunity
 to know something of his mind and character, and his life and deeds will
 form an enduring and a consoling me
 morial of him.

That glass is porous to molecules be- low certain weight and volume has been shown by recent electrolytic ex- periments made by Professor Roberts Austen of the Royal Mint. A current was passed through a vessel contain ing an amalgam of sodium, separated by a glass partition from mercury. Af- ter a while the amalgam was found to have lost certain amount of it's weight, while the same amount had been added to the mercury. The same result was obtained with an amalgam of lithium; but with potassium, whose atomic weight and volume are high, the glass could not be penetrated.

Some of the recent experiments in scientific kite-f1ying which have been conducted by William A. Eddy at the Blue Hill, Mass, observatory, show that the practical uses of the kite may be expected to include a range wider than the mere recording of barometric conditions. Earth photography for mill itary purposes is now claimed as a function of the kite-fyer's art, and considerable success in this, line has already been obtained. From an alti- tude of $50 feet, photograph taken with small camera on August show ed with considerable distinctness the panorama of the earth directly below
 One taken at an estimated altitude of 400 feet was probably the most success ful photograph ever taken from such an altitude and under such conditions. MT. Eddy does not expect any scien- tific results from these experiments in photographing from high attitudes, but he hopes to demonstrate the feasibility of taking such photographs as useful adjunct to the equipment of an army. A photograph from such an altitude would, it is claimed, show at least the
