A MIRAGE EXPLAINED.
The Phenomenon Due to a Stratum
0fRarffied Air Close TO the Ground.

VI
In the course of his second lecture on
Light at the royal institution, Lord
Rayleigh spoke of the cause of mirage,
which, it appears, is not clearly explain
ed in the work of optics. Ganot says 1T
is a phenomenon of refraction which
results from the unequal density of the
different layers of the air then they
are expanded by contact with the heat
saying that the appearance of water on
broad and hot sandy places was due to
the fact that close upon the ground
there lay a stratum of rarified air. A
ray of light fell very obliquely onto it,
and, being totally reflected, reached the
reached the eye of an observer much
as if the reflection took place from the
water.
The phenomenon was strictly speak
ing, one of refraction although the effect
was the same as if there were complete
reflection on one surface. He mentioned
this because he did not think it was to
be found in any of the books on optics,
and because from a theoretical point of
view it was of great Importance. Just
as a glass lens formed an image on
the screen sc the crystalline lens of
jects upon the retina (the sensitive
surface at the back of the eye), and SO
the image on the retina was inverted.
Much unnecessary speculation has been
made in this connection, for people sup
posed hat because of this inversion,
it was a mystery that we did not see
everything upside down. The fact was,
at alive only felt it; but if we could
see the image OF somebody's else retina,
then we should see it nverted.-Phila-

WATER CONFERENCE
Finance Board Will Meet
Tonight and Probably
Consider the Question.
SPECIFICATIONS ARE ADEQUATE
Messrs Jones and Hardenberg It
Is Said Want Them Revised
by an Engineer.

The Board of finance will meet to-
night. If the water question Is dis
cussed it will be in an informal way.
1t is not probable that the Street nj
Water Commissioners will be present.
The arrangements for a conference were
left in the hands of the Street and
Water Commissioners and those gentle
men lave been kept SO busy with other
city business that they have not de-
c.ded just when to call a conference.
1t was reported yesterday that the FL
nance Commissioners had been invited
to the conference in Mayor Wanser's
office, but there appears to be no foun-
dalton for the report. Commissioner
Simpson was not invited and neither
were the other members. That the re-
lations of the two boards are strained is
nonsense. 1t is the intention of both
boards to work tremendously.
SPECIFICATIONS ADEQUATE.
The specifications submitted by Mayor
Wanser are regarded as adequate and
cover all the points necessary for the
making of a favorable contract. The
Street and Water Commissioners stand
ready, it is said, to adopt them at any
time, but they do not want to act until
the Finance Commissioners have read
them and expressed an opinion as to
their desirabiity. With a clash in the
Finance Board the whole matter would
be tied up again, and this IS what all
the officials who have to pass upon a
contract want to avoid.
The city wants new water said
President Simpson last night, land I
will do all in my power to get it. Enough
time mas been wasted and It will be 40
the interests of everyone to have a
contract made and a new supply obtain
ed as soon IS possible
The Finance Commissioners will not
discuss Mayor Wanser's specifications.
They want to read them over carefully
before committing themselyes
AN ENGINEER TO REVISE.
1t is expected that President Jones and
Commissioner H~ardenbergh will insist
upon an engineer revising them n If
they do a prominent engineer will be
engaged. The Street and Water Com
missioners are working with the Mayor
n are anxious to have the question
sent on its way for final settlement. If
it lis probable a conference will be ar
ranged this week so that the Street
and Water Commissioners at their meet
ing on Monday next can either adopt
the specifications as they stand or en-
BODY such essential recommendations as
may be made. Appearances indicate that
a final settlement of the water problem
is close at hand.

Consul Morris. of Client. in a report to

Mr.. Charles Richet, in his Dictionary
of Physiology, which he has lately com
menced to publish, makes an interesting
estimate of the average amount OF daily
nourishment consumed by an inhabitant
of Paris. He bases his statistics upon
thef census of 1890. The population OF
tributed as follows:-Children under 5
years of age, .2o7. 600; between 5 and 10
years, 200, 600; between 10 and Is years,
18S, 600; persons above Is years of age,
1910, 600; of his last figure, $1,000 are
males and 100000 females. Considering
that the average weight of a man is
1451a pounds and of a woman 1854 pounds,
Mr.. Richet fixes the mounts of their
respective nourishment as 100 is to s..
He gives the following figures as the
