AN EAR THQUAkE DETECTOR.

Marvellous Mes sages of Shakings In Japan
Conveyed by q Little Instrument.
It has become possible to discover an
earthquake and to mark its force at .
distance of over seven thousand miles,
to smack of magic, but it is neverthe-
less q scientific fact. Some time ago it
was stated as simple truth that the
earthquake in Algeria was made known
to the scientists in Paris itself while it
was actually taking place by the un-
dulations of certain delicate instru-
ments over a strip of paper. That the
movements of the earth could thus
transmit themselves almost instantane-
ously, registering, as it were, across
the Mediterranean and nearly the
whole of France more quickly than a
telegraph message could have been
sent, was thought hardly plausible.
But it can well be believed now in
view of a recent more marvellous dem
onstration of the self-registering of an
earthquake much farther away.
Within an hour from the time it COM
menced the late earthquake in Japan
had revealed itself to the instruments
of the Roman college. The oscilla-
tions of the earth outlined themselves
N a single sheet of paper clearly and
distinctly, showing plainly that there
were five separate disturbances" of
varying force. Recent scientific re-
ports that have just come from the
Japanese empire confirm the accuracy
of the instruments of the Roman coll
lege in a most remarkable manner
The practical part of the discovery is
that the approach of an earthquake
may be told with little chance of error,
though it must be confessed that the
instruments give no hint of direction
nor do they indicate the starting point.
Instruments OF this character were
at Nicolaief and Charkow, cities in the
central part of Russia, and here the
Japanese earthquake mentioned was
registered even more plainly, the dis
tance in this case from it's seat being
fully four thousand five hundred miles.
The instruments in these towns were
carefully watched at thisstime and they
were seen to oscillate and mark the
tremblings of the earth for over an
hour.
One Of the most remarkable of mod
ern inventions, indeed, is this seismo-
graph, which was invented by Bartelli,
the father Of earthquakes" The most
valuable evidence Of it's practical bene-
fit to mankind was in 1883, when the
sensitive machine gave warning Of an
eruption of Mount Etna. Up to this
time, however, it has only been valua-
bic for foretelling shocks comparative
" near at hand. The long-distance in
stances recorded above are the first in
the history Of the seismograph.

TOO STOUT FOR CONVENIENCE

Naval Oh1cers Accumulate Too Much
Flesh for Comfort.
Following closely upon it's considera-
ton of the much-disputed question as
to whether entrances to the coming
towers Of u ships of war should be.
made large enough to permit the easy
ingress and egress of the more rotund
Of our naval officers comes discussion
DDS to be employed IN removing to the
sick bay" such persons as may be
wounded on the decks in action. The
intimate connection Of the two topics,
says the Washington Star, may not be
apparent at first glance, but the
thoughtful student Of naval affairs will
doubtless see that there is q relation
ship. The principal point to be noted
is as to the difficulty that would be ex-
%perienced in removing from the con
ming tower the wounded body Of one Of
those obese officers who, when in pos
session Of all his faculties, could barely
manage to squeeze his way in.
BY projecting himself edgewise, so to
speak, most OF the ~ultra-stout among
OUT naval officers could manage to
secafre admission, but the getting Of
one 81 them out in case he should
chance to be injured would be q serious
undertaking.
Matters like this have to be consid-
cred now in time OF peace; when q ship
is in action and the unconscious form
Of her commanding officer is sc tightly
wedged in the slot rs to make move
mentTin OF out temporarily impossible,
it is then too late to discuss the width
OF coming tower doorways.
A twofold remedy presents itself:
Either make the slot wide enough to
admit easily the embonpoint OF q three
Observation-Disclosures officer and the
whole body Of . twelve-inch shell, or
else insistthat Off GERS who cannot easily
enter q moderate slotted tower shall
stay ashore and do bureau work or
roam around on ships that are not
equipped with towers or other uncom-
fortably-contracted living or fighting
quarters.

A negro of Athens, Ca, recently
got cinder IN his ear, which caused
him considerable annoyance and pain.
He went to doctor and asked him
to cure his ear, which was badly
swollen. The doctor charged him 81
and the negro agreed to pay it. The
doctor took the cinder out in a jiffy,
and the negro refused to pay him,
saying he hadn't done enough to him
to warrant the charge. The doctor
put him back in the chair and put the
cinder back in his ear. The negro
paid him the dollar before he got the
cinder out again.

Fatal Accident on the Narrow Gauge.
James Coffield, section hand who
has been in the employ Of the company
ever since the road was built, was
killed Tuesday between four and five
in the afternoon by being run over by
the mixed train, conductor Hayes and
engineer Ross. The train was about an
hour late owing to an accident the day
before which partially disabled the en-
CINE. Coffield and Louis Dompeir,
the section boss, had been at work on
the track on or near the Bradley
meadow mile and a half above Brat
tleboro and had just got their hand car
on to 90 down when they heard the
train, Cofiield jumped off backwards
and fell, the hand car running on to
him and owing to injuries received by
jumping was unable to help himself.
Dompier it seemed, lost his head and
instead of assisting Cofiield stood wildly
throwing up his hands. The train had
just rounded a curve and the engineer
could not see them until too late. COT
field was terribly mangled-cut all to
pieces. The entire blame in the mat
ter is charged upon Dompier and the
company promptly discharged him.
Cofield leaves a wife, who but two or
three weeks ago broke her leg.
