To Utilize the Solar Heat.

Ii the SUMS heat that falls upon a
square yard of ground could all be saved
and utilized in steam engines, the pow
er generated, according to Prof. Langley
would be as much as a full horse power
AT the Paris exposition of 1878 a solar
engine produced power enough to run q
printing press. Ericsson invented b solar
engine that might have a practical value
in the Sahara, where a large portion of
the solar energy that strikes the outer
part Of the atmosphere penetrates to the
bottom of the aerial sea. We hear a great
deal of the vast power to be obtained by
utilizing the falls of Niagara, but the
sun power wasted on the District of Co.
lumbia, says the professor, is hundred
times as great. Unfortunately there have
been no thoroughly practical inventions
to harness the suns wasted energy.
The day will come, doubtless, when it
will be utilized. In that day the deserts
with their dry atmosphere. will become
the centres of large Industries, and will
to a certain extent be reclaimed.
Ths intensity of the suns heat and the
amount of energy dispersed through the
universe In his rays are beyond cOncep-
ton. Every minute emo ugh heat comes
to the earth from the sun to bring 81, :
900, 900 tons OF water to the boiling point
And the sun gives out heat enough to
supply 1000, 1000, 900 Of such worlds as
ours. The coal beds of Pennsylvania will
suffice for this country's use for CEN
turtles, yet if the whole coal stock of the
state were consumed in one puff, the
heat generated would not be equal to the
SUMS product in the one thousandth part
Of second Recent experiments show
that it is difficult to conceive what the
properties of matter would be at extreme
iy~low temperatures. 1t is even more
difficult to conceive what they are at the
temperatures prevailing in the sun.-Bal-
timore Sun.

The fire department of Charleston,
parade, and from the account of the affair
in the News and Courier we copy the de-
scription of engine No. 4, whose engin-
eer, Capt. M. W. Webb, has quite num-
Der of friends in Portland, who never fail
to meet with warm reception at No. as
historic town.
Engine No. was undoubtedly one of
the nandsomest productions in the art OF
decoration ever seen in the streets OF
Charleston. The colors were white, blue
and gold. The engine was drawn by two
milk white horses of beautiful proper
tions. Their long silken names and tails
Rlistened like silver in the sunlight.
Their hoofs were gilded and the harness
was of pure white enamel imitation. The
iron catches and chains on the harness
andsengines were gilded and the effect WAS
cell blue dangled from the fastenings,
tempering the brillianoy of the effect and
adding a richness of color to it, Ribbons
of yellow gold hoated from the whip,
which arose from mass Of flowers like
delicate fern in an enchanted forest.
The engine itself was literally one great
mass of flowers; the colors being put TO-
gether in such skillful and artistic man
ner that its beauty could not have been
enhanced. The hose reel was covered
with an arch of red and white flowers in
tertwined with vines of morning glories
and slender ferns. All along the route
of the parade the engine, which is called
"Our Lottie," was greeted with shouts
of applause from the people Our Lot
tie, A" in all it's artistic beauty and lowell
ness, was sight that dazzled the eyes of
the visitors and astounded the home folk.
The beautiful white horses, full of fire
and spirit, tugged at the reins and, with
their satin necks arched to one side,
seemed to recognize that they had cap
tured the hearts Of the people.

GREAT BRiTAIN's WAR STRENGTH
English Statesmen and Soldiers Comment
on Their Army and Navy.
Irish Republic.

Half the men are not able to Garry
their kit. We have not single infantry
battalion at home, except the guards ;ssthey
are all like a lemon when the Juice is
squeezed out Of it, and unfit in every way
to take the field. To resist an invader
we should have to keep all the many i'm
mature men in the ranks and do the best
efficiency are the youth and limited
training Of these troops, the need of stiff
ening by the presence of old soldiers in
the ranks and the inexperience of the
non commissioned officers. Duke
Connaught.
sit is doubtful if we could mobilize
single army corps at short notice, and
Lord Wolseley questions whether we have
got the necessary stores and equipments
for even this modest force ''--Duke of
Cam bridge.
1--WE have no army except what is neo-
ess airy for a frontier police force for our
scattered dominions, and our existence
as an empire would in no degree what
ever depend upon the strength of the
army, though it's numbers were 10 times
as great as at the present The re-
latiye conditions of our fleet and that of
France absolutely prove that we have no
reasonable argument to adduce for con-
siderfng that we could defend out coasts,
food supply, etc., against France alone. I"
Lord Charles Beresford
1.-The conviction cannot be avaded that
among the chief reasons why our foreign
policy is dangerous is that we have no
army to defend our shores and carry out
our foreign obligations. / believe we are
counting great national disaster By not
enforcing this question: disaster in the
form of loss OF maritime prestige-for
England would certainlyynot be able Ito
send out a fleet from our home ports
sufficient to strike great blow, leaving
our homes protected. 1t is idle bunkum
to talk of our Mediterranean fleet being
able to cope single handed with a COM
bination of France and Russia against
us, when there is nothing to prevent the
entire French navy, Atlantic and Medl-
terranean, from being united. Here it is
necessary to emphasize the incontroyer-
tible fact that our military unprepared-
ness is the chief cause of our weakness
abroad. The naval force we are compelled
to keep in home waters and in the Medi-
terranean is theEprice we pay for keeping
only an army of samples, for we have no
second line of defense worthy of the
name. Continental nations have a
geographical expression" for frontier,
few sticks stuck here and there, but
their manhood is enrolled in their own
defense, whereas England, with a ditch
rs miles wide, is literallys.more easily in.
vaded than Germany or Switzerland, and
our manhood recognizes no responsibility
ty. Capt Gambler, R.N.
