THE FUTURE or EUROPE
To Bon. the French Historian, Predicts an
Oriental Influx.

The French historian Lie Bon in re-
cent article predicts that Europe will
become the seat for despotism and later
Tor barbaris1n and incur the same fato
as the Byzantine and the Persian en-
pires. Next the Slavs will destroy the
old culture, and then Europe will be
overrun with the orientals, particularly
the Chinese and the Hindoos
According to Professor LIE Bon 3
views, q general European war will be
succeeded by terrible economic condi-
lions The orient is already commence
ing to be the producer for Europe in
stead Of being the consumer, and Eu-
rope, in spite of it's tariff protection,
will find it impossible to check the
Hood. India is now exporting it's prod
uce, which, i'll spite Of transportation
expenses, is sold at lower figure than
the European, and India, provided with
machinery, is now competing with Eu-
rope in the manufacturing market.
China, when its war with Japan is
over. will follow midas example.
When India and China, with their
enormous deposits of coal, have a mass
Of factories in operation, they will over

products and place the European work

An Interesting Insurance Question.

William Bailey, who had been buying
horses and shipping them south, and
who accidentally shot himself through
the right foot two weeks ago, has died
of his injuries. Bailey came here from
Fort Scott. Shortly after the first of
the year he took out two accident in
suranoe policies, one in the Fidelity and
Casualty company for $4,000 and the
other in the Standard company for like
amount The latter company claims OK
emption under a clause which releases
it if the insured is injured while in the
act of violating state law. Local rep
resentatives of the company claim that
as Bailey was shot by the accidental dis
charge of revolver in his pocket he
was carrying a concealed weapon, and
thereby violating the state law.-Atch.

A Shocking Hotel.

A hotel in Chicago is 80 heavily
charged with electricity that the guests
cannot move around without getting a
shock which is often painful. 1t is so
bad that when one walks across the
room a spark will leap over space of
two inches. The guests have had some
funny experiences. One man came near
getting a cash cut in his face " hen he
went to get shaved, because he was SO
startled by spark from the razor. Then
another man thought he had stepped OH
needles when he got into a bathtub.
This peculiar condition OF the building
puzzles the electricians, and some think
the whole house will have to be over
hauled and revised. Chicago Core

THE DISCOVERY OF ARGON.
Cofnciden.es Connected With the Expert
EHtnts Made by Scientists


1atnts Made by Scientists
Professor Ramsay explained in an in
ttrvicw last week how he discovered
| argon, the new element i'll the atmos-
phere which is row exciting the Won
Ger Of tho scientific world. He said:
''The impulse came directly from Lord
Eayleigh. he was much impressed by
the fact that atmospheric nitrogen was
. heavier than chemical nitrogen. This
might be due to an admixture of lighter
Gas with chemical nitrogen or to the
presence OF i. gas of a greater weight in
atmospheric nitrogen. Lord Rayleigh
was inclined to the former explanation,
! aid some four years ago he consulted me
about tho manufacture of chemical nj
; tcogen.
! II regarded the second explanation as
the true one, and after he had been ex-
! perimenting for some time asked his
; permission to make experiments on my
own account. He never hesitated to &C.
cord his consent, and | set II work.
It was dreary waiting for results that
never came, but there were times Of
high excitement as my suspicious be-
came probabilities, and probabilities
grew into triumphant certainty At
length, in July last was able to send
Lord Rayleigh three ounces of the new
gas.
'Ee replied at once He also had
some of the gas Our investigations,
conducted independently, had led to
simultaneous success. as has been the
case with SO many discoveries and inven-
tons. There was still another coinci-
dence little later. AS soon as we got
the gas we wanted to find out its nature
Was it chemical combination or me-
chanical miSture? Was it monatomic or
diatomic, simple or compound? Profess
or Olszcwski Of Cracow was expert
montiny with it in communication with
me. by the application of heat he made
the discovery that there was no loss of
heat through intermolecular motion
We mado out that argon was monatom-
lc. | wrote the news to Cracow My
letter had hardly gone when received
a communication from my confrere He
had also suspected the monatomic nature
of the new gas, but for another reason.
Er8on weighs ~ times as much as n.y.
drosen and Is times as much as oxy-
gen. He had expected the heavier gas
to liquefy at higher temperature To
his surprise, it liquefed at lower tenn
perature There was only one conclu-
sion, and that was argon was monatom-
ic. But it was curious that letters an

Freezing of Pipes Prevented.

An English firm is introducing an
automatic air valve intended to prevent
the bursting Of pipes Ly frost. The valve
is soldered into the water pipe at the
highest position of the building and
normally is kept closed by the pressure
Of the water inside the pipes. In time
Of frost the main cock is closed, and
then by opening the lowest tap in the
building the water in the house pipes
can be run off, air coming through the
air valve to take its place. Thus the
pipes, being filled with air, cannot
freeze On turning on the water from
the main again the air valve closes au-

to her class, If a tree located in for

would it make noise?" The question
has created much discussion among the
