The Jury's Verdict.

The jury retired at o'clock, and after an
hour and a half of elaboration rendered a
verdict to the effect that they believed that
J. Waters Blundon, Guy Brown and Chas.
E. Lynch were struck by train No. 500 on
the Baltimore ard Ohio railroad, which
occasioned their death then and there, on
the 9th day of July, 1895, at Riverdale,
Md, or near thereto; and that the said acct
dent was according to the testimony Of
the witnesses. unavoidable as far as the
question of saving their lives g concerned,
but the opinion of the jury is that proper
examination of the engine at the station at
the terminus would have disclosed the
presence of blood or portions of the bodies,
which might have resulted in a search
being made, and the probable discovery Of
the remains in more reasonable space of
time

Decidedly the most interesting and cn-
r1ous Of recent chemical products Is cal
oium carbide, Or calcium aoetyllde 40 1t
might be onlled from u theoretical chem-
ioal point Of view. 1t was first described
by Wohler, who made It By strongly heat

promise well 40 source of illuminating

Of the house being connected with the
closed vessel, and with a small gas holder
to regulate pressure, the light supply
would be complete and automatic. A
piece of carbide of calcium may be held in
the hand and sprinkled with few drops
of water. A gas will then be developed
which may be lighted with match and
will continue to burn as long as few
drops of water are sp'inkled on the sub
stance from time to time.-Cassier's Mag

Irish TYpeA.

Three types at least are observable In

Ian looking Celt, also found In Devon; Sec
ondly, the tall, yellow haired Danish type,
and, thirdly, the aboriginal Aryan of the
Volga, with red or auburn hair and blue
or green eyes, who may also be found in
Cornwall. .,%5rgs g. s.. I ,$ss 7
The dark aquiline type of Wales differs
considerably from that of the Irish, and
the Irish language is nearer akin to Corn.

man of caricatures is not often seen in the

The Sun Do MGve.

John Jasper, the negrt' preacher, al
ways stuck to it that the sun did move,
and Jasper was right. In fact, so far az
has been discovered, ithas not only one
motion, but three.
First it revolves on its axis. Astrono-
mers know this by the regular recur,
renee and disappearance of the sun spots.
It takes the sun nearly month Of our
days to turn around once-more than a
lunar month, in fact, for the mean time
of its axial rotation is 2815 days. Its
next motion is not so we'll understood.
But it has been found that our great
sun itself revolves slowly around the
center Of gravity of the whole solar
system, wherever and whatever that is,
just as the magnetic pole Of the earth
is believed to have q motion around in
a small circle. Very delicate mathemat-
ioal instruments have been employed to
discover this motion Of the sun around
the center Of gravity:
Besides these two there is another
motion which would be calculated to
alright the timid if its goal and aim
were not so very far off. Wise men
have discovered that the sun, with all
it's planets trailing after it, is rushing at
breakneck speed into the constellation
Hercules, in due time to be swallowed
up by that constellation. The speed at
which'we are all flying toward Hercu
les is considered by the best authorities
on the subject to be at least $50, 000,-
900 miles q year. But this universe
shall not get there in our lifetime nor
our children's.

Mr.. Polhemus was very fond Of duck
