corrosion of Metals bv Water.

The peculiar statement is made by
NJ. Bauchier in LIE Revue Maritime ct
Coloniale that corrosion of metals by
water may be caused by the action of
micro-organisms present in particular
harbors, but absent in the ocean It ap-
pears that the fact. as ascertained. of
pure aluminium plates immersed in
Norfolk Roads being badly ccrroded at
the end of three months, while in
France commercial aluminium subject
ed to the same test was practically un-
touched, and two plates attached to the
bottom of ship were uninjured after a
voyage around the world, led him to in
vestigate the sea water from different
places. with the following results, as
stated: If introduced into boilers, the
Mediterranean water, which contains
more salt than the Atlantic water,
causes more damage; 80 does the water
taken from estuaries and near the shore,
which contains a larger proportion Of
nitrates from fermenting organic mat
ter. The destructive power of the shore
water is much reduced, however, if it
be sterilized by means Of boiling.

There are women in this advanced age

the efforts of reformers to abolish the
funeral pyre of the Hindoo.
A memorial meeting was held few
days ago in honor of q man who had
been prominent in public work. His
former colleagues and intimate friends
filled the large platform. Among them
sat his widow, weeping silently under
her crepe veil. One after another the
orators Of the occasion laid tributes of
eloquence at the altar of his memory.
One, more inspired and with longer
speech than the rest, followed the his
tory of his life from the time of his
birth, Sin the troublous days when all
Europe was aghast at the sight of Ma
poleon striding over the ruins of empires
to a universal throne.
But the most important event of his
life," he continued, happened at a
later date. 1t was at a fancy ball that
he met, as he afterward said, the first
and only love Of his life. He was there
disguised as a highlander.
WHAT" he whispered as some one
tugged at his coat, but getting no reply,
he went on-"And the lady of his
choice was dressed -here there was an
other tug-''was dressed as a Turkish
cigarette girl. After short courtship
they were married.
He then continued the eulogy of the
youthful bride of the deceased in ex-
travagant terms. When he sat down q
neighbor orator whispered, "You forgot
his widow"
"Oh, no, didn't. I gave her a good
send off.
GOOD heavens" exclaimed the 9TH

THE SWARM OF SWALLOWS.

The SWAIN OF SWALLOWS.
tween Leghorn and Malaga. On one Of
the recent trips it encountered an adven-
ture which will never be forgotten by
either the crew or the passengers. The
passage had been q stormy one, but the day
Of the occurrence was unusually fine
Though a rather heavy sea was running
most Of the passengers We're on deck.
Suddenly the lookout called, Hurricane
cloud leeward!"
At once there was great CONSERVATION
aboard, and a number of people sought
safety below. The captain, however, after
glancing at tho barometer, gave it as his
opinion that it was no hurricane cloud.
The black mass that they saw lowering
near the horizon was, he thought, a par
ticularly dense volume of smoke from some
steamer. But the solution of the mystery
came much sooner than they had expected.
The threatening mass grew larger and
larger, and soon was seen to bear down in
the direction Of the vessel with terrific
speed. Everybody, both crew and passen-
gers, became frightened at the mysterious
cloud, which seemed to move with great
rapidity notwithstanding that q perfect
calm prevailed.
Then came tho solution. The vast cloud
that they had seen was composed of swal-
lows. The fOrerunners, q small detachment
Of some 10, 900, swooped down on the deck,
to tho bewilderment of the people on board.
These were soon followed, not by thou
sands, but by hundreds Of thousands. The
birds literally overwhelmed the vessel. The
man at the wheel lost his bearings, and the
widest disorder prevailed. The birds
poured into every available opening, hatch
ways, windows and everywhere else. They
got tangled in the ropes and sails, and
clustered about the rigging. Even the
smokcstack was SO filed up at one time
that the fires were nearly cxtinguished.
The most amazing part of the whole thing
was that the birds did not evince any dis.
position to leave.
To heightcn the confusion the steamer
had got out of it's course and ran ashore.
However, on account of going very slow,
no material damage was done, though the
passengers were badly frightened When
the crew had recovered from their amaze
ment, they began to clear the deck and the
vessel in general of these unexpected and
not at all welcome guests. The captain
ordered the men to use shovels and what.
ever they could to throw the birds over.
board. After getting fairly in shape the
vessel proceeded on its voyage, having
been delayed for nearly eight hours on ae.
count Of this singular experience. The
captain could not offer any theory rs to
where this vast army of swallows came
from. All he said was that the birds evi.
IDENTIFY were exhausted from n prolonged
flight during the storm Of the previous
night and sought rest on his vessel.

THE MARRIAGE TIE.


usa and Women Nee 70 h judged -
the Same Standard.
Whether it is that we are poorer, o.
that We are more luxurious and exacting
in our tastes, and that the girls Of today
require more in their marriage than the
ordinary Englishman can afford. I can
not say, but unless girls have great
beauty or large fortunes we heax much
more of the difficulty of their marrying.
Among the mass of women, however,
there is no revulsion from the marriage
tie, and all healthy minded girls and
women seem to be just as much interest
ed in the question as were their grand
mothers. The one great fact that has
kept English society is the inviolability
ct the marriage tie. Infidelity in mar
ried woman is surely reason enough to
justify her husband in getting rid of
her, and the woman who clamors for
divorce ON the same grounds as men is
surely lowering the standard of female
purity in ruthless way. Is man, with
his stronger, coarser, more animal ma
ture, to be judged by the same standard
OF chastity as woman, with her higher
ideals of life, her purer nature, and the
exemption from temptation which she
enjoys?
If We think for o moment of the
temptation to which men are exposed
from their very early youth, and which
they undoubtedly combat very unsuc-
cessfully, and which attacks them at q
time when they are most prone to sue
cumb-in the period Of youth, vigor
and ignOrance-and contrast their posi-
ton with that of women, we must sure
" feel that We are degrading our sex
when we ask for corresponding code Of
morality. or even suggest that women
are to be tried by no higher standard
than that to which men strive to attain.
We are told that no union can survive
the conjugal customs and intimacy Of
English married life. Perhaps the new
woman thinks so because in her ephem-
eral passion no feeling of constancy, af-
lection or gratitude is possible. We be
lieve that the overwhelming majority Of
old fashioned English women regard
that intimacy as one of the purest and
sweetest ever devised-one which, when
the passion and desire of youth fade
away, blossoms into friendship, a COM
pansionship as constant as it is holy,
without which their lives would indeed
be barren.-Lady Jeune in Saturday Re-
view.

The Fight ON Chicaso.. Police.

John r. Tanner, chairman of the repui-
lican state central committee sued by
Mayor Hopkins of Chicago for defamation
Of character, has thrown down the gage of
battle and purposes to fight it out on the
ground of truth and justification. This was
done in his plea filed to the declaration
made in court by the mayor. In support
of the truth of the allegations in The circu-
lar issued by Mr.. Tanner, as chairman of
the republican state central committee, en-
which the action was commenced, it IS set
up that the mayor, October 81 last, through
the police force, did eXtort and receive
from one Lizzie Manning the sum of s.,
in consideration for which she was allowed
to maintain a certain room as a place to
be used for an unlawful purpose, contrary
to the laws of Illinois and ordinances of
the city Of Chicago. This declaration is
repeated ninety-eght times, and the rames
of ninety-seven other persons from whom
money is said to have been collected are
given.
