A French Scientific Party to Investigate the
whirlpool.


from the Philadelphia Record.1
The theory that the great whirlpool
off the coast Of Norway is subterran
eously connected with the Gulf Of Both
MIA has found many believers. among
them the celebrated Kirchner, who pre-.
pared the architectural plans OF whai
the Tower Of Babel was like. Yearn.
ing for something definite as to this
mystery of nature, however, the French
government has nominated a scientific
commission to study the celebrated
whirlpool to investigate its suggested
connections with the gulf stream, and
to rectify existing charts Of its cur
rents.
All the poetry of Scandinavia centres
around the terrible gulf which express
es the supreme horror of nature. But
we live In a more positive age. The
whirlpool is in the vicinity of the wild
est rock-bound coast Of Norway, the
black cliffs of which have been called
''the ramparts of the world" Still
there are times that the pool Is so calm
that small boat can sail across its
presumed mouth. No ship has ever
been sucked down-mariners know The
currents by their charts--save that des-
cribed by Edgar Allen Poe, so full Of
"creepiness," and where the vessel is
converted into match wood. OF its
crew one alone was rescued, a youth of
,txyA xnrS, N af+ m
tossing in the funnel, was thrown up
on beach some miles away. his hair
having become as white as snow and
he himself a wizened old man.
During periods Of storm the mael-
strom Is said to resemble a funnel, the
water whirling inside a ring of foam;
but the eye can see the descending liq
uid wall to be all jet-black water.
Trunks OF trees have been thrown up
so split that the natives say they have
become "mermaids' hair" OF course
there are legends of whales having been
drawn into the great race, and that
their cries have been heard above the
storm.
What will accrue to science from the
result of the French commission Is nat
urally impossible to predict. AS was
evidenced by the late expedition of a
Frenchman to the depths of the fed
Sea to recover traces of Pharaoh's lost
hosts, the Gauls Of to-day have a de-
cided fondness for peering into matters,
the investigation of which seems to be
contrary to the DEGREES Of both time
and nature.
But an outside observer might possl-
bly, allege that descent into volcano
to ascertain whence came the fiery
as well as observations as to the
effect of the elected molten lava upon
the circumjacent air, would be quite as
easy and Of equal advantage to the
world OF science as the proposed effort
to fathom the mysteries of the mael-
strom. The fascination for diving into
the unknown is, however, so great that
as long as mysteries shall exist some-
body will be found to spend valuable
time, valuable life, and valuable means
upon their solution.

A COLOR ORGAN.

For two or three thousand years there
has been theory that there is a close
connection between sound and color,
and lately this connection has been
more or less plainly shown. For In
stance, Mr.. Rivington, an Englishman,
has made a "color organ" by the means
Of which he has produced results in
expressibly beautiful. According to
the undulating theory of light the
rates Of vibration producing different
colors vary in much the same ratio
as the intervals in vibrations produc-
ing musical notes. Mr.. Rivington in
his color organ has provided a prac-
teal means Of delighting the eye with
music played in color. There is key
board attached to delicate mechanism,
and upon depressing any key the color
answering to that note is flashed upon
a screen at the end of the hall. The
London correspondent Of the New York
Sun gives the following description of
the wonderful performance: While
some of Chopin's preludes were played
on Thursday the pianoforte screen was
flooded with successiver hythmical waves
of harmonious color from simple to COM
pick, glowing scarlet, gold deepening
to orange, exquisite half tones in mauve
grays and browns and turquoise blue.
A waltz of Dvorak's showed the higher
possibilities of lovely complexity, and
the overture to "Rienzi" was strikingly
beautiful in half tones of color. Every
body agreed that Mr.. Rivington has
produced a new joy for cultured hui
manity, and everybody was equally
unanimous that the evening was very
fatiguing, for the rapidity with which
color ousted color from the retina pro-
duced painful effect upon all OBJ
servers.
The musical critics who have CAB
bled about "coIor" in Instrumental
music have been all right. BY and by
perhaps there will be color hand-or-
gans.

1t is related that a Covington Ren-
tuclzy) policeman found several boys,
in a deep slumber, lying on the grass
by the roadside. 1t required some work
to awaken them. Each had handker-
chief spread over his mouth, and the
policeman thought at first that he had
run across suicide club. The boys
finally said that they had climbed one
of the city's lamp posts and had turned
on the gas until their handkerchiefs had
been thoroughly saturated. Then they
had climbed down and retired to the
grass to lie down and have good sleep.
They described the sensation produced
from inhaling the gas as delightful pro-
ducing a dreamy condition lasting for
an hour. The practice has been going
on among hundreds Of boys for some
time, and many of them are gas drunk
ards.

ETC DAY.

To-day is Flag Day. One of the
most pleasing signs of the times is the
rapidly increasing interest in this Gay.
And especially pleasing is the fact that
it is more and more being made day
for teaching the young lessons Of pat
riotism. AS the Grand Army which up
held the flag when traitors sought to
lower 1t fades away it is all important
that new Grand Army with full APP
probation of what the flag means shall
be ready to defend it if it is again att
tackled Therefore it is well that the
children should sing and shout and
march in honor of the flag of their
country. And in teaching patriotism
to the youth the elders can keep the
sacred fire brightly glowing in their
own breasts.
Oneof the most impressive celebrations
of Flag Day in Connecticut will take
place in Berlin, where Henry Brown, an
old negro who was slave in the South,
will to-day cheer his toll in his lonely
field by flying the flag from pole
which he has erected there. 1t is the
flag of the free now. and as the old
negro sees 1t wave he will realize what
it means to him and his race.
Long may the Star spangled Ban
ner continue to wave over a free and
a united country.

turn-back cuffs being to match and the
same silk giving the deep girdle. The
main material Is pink batiste, which
is bloused to hang over the belt in front,
where strip Of ruching hides the fas-
tening. The neck is cut out little,
and the skirt is plain. Beside this
there is to be seen dress OF nut brown
silk crepon whose skirt is trimmed at
the bottom with two ruffies of the same
goods. Its fitted bodice is also plain
save for very large collar of the dress
goods which is edged with tiny ruff
file. Ruff1es also extend down the front
where the bodice fastens. The chem
isette at the neck is made separately
and thus affords a chance for variety
of either white or colored silks, or Of
null, chiffon or batiste.
Summer material that does not lend
itself to the usual pattern of flaring and
piping skirts is made In the prettier
fashion of moderate fitness on the belt
and full round ruffle from the knee
to the hem. The misery Of the skirt
that will slip from the belt Is met by
the skirt that has its belt attached. IF
the effect of buckled front is wanted.
then the belt itself is attached half
way around the skirt and hooks secure
ly in two or three places around the
other half, coming to the front for fas-
tenIng under the usual buckle.

.'There is no such thing as law" was
the surprising piece of information
given by Governor Clarke of Arkansas
no the graduates of the law department
of the Arkansas University the other
day. The governor had but just pre-
scented diplomas to the young men,
which the recipients might naturally
suppose were evidence that they knew
some law, as a result of several years
of study. Governor Clarke explained
that there were rules accepted as law
hut these were so complex in principle
as to render the law a myth. Ninety
per cent. Of appealed cases could be de-
cided either way. he averred, and law
yers on the bench very frequently divide
on the question of what is the law.

Prince Bismarck recently made
notable speech to German farmers. He
said, among other things; Farmers, to
assure the passage of satisfactory laws,
should send deputies to parliament
chosen from among themselves. They
should vote for men Of their own flesh
and blood to meet the present lawmak-
ers, who were without an acre of land
or an ear Of corn, with the battle cry

A new line of steamers between New

with the Panama railroad and the Pa

Gently as an experiment, and will prob
ably be continued as a permanent COM
mercial route. The merchants of New
Orleans are much interested In the pro-

trade of Ecuador, Peru, Chill and Bo-
livie than amy other port in the United
States, and it will establish the short

sulting in lower rates for freight and
passenger traffic. The effect of this
commerce upon New Orleans will be
most beneficial. as 1t will open new bust
ness relations and will develop new OPP
portunities for local investment and
profit. EVEN If the steamers should not
be found to pay large returns at first, 1t
is proposed to continue them, for a time
at least, by means Of local encourage
ment in the hope that the commerce
with the Western coast cities will even
tually bring adequate returns.

The degree LII, d. has been conferred
upon woman for the first time in the
history of North Carolina. Several years
ago, at meeting of the State Univer-
sity, which is located at Chapel Hill,
and which has just celebrated it's cen
tennial commencement exercises, the
proposition was made to confer the de-
gree of LII. d. upon Mrs Cornelia Phil
lips Spencer. The standing objec-
ton which has so long obtained in the
South, on account of her sex, prevented
it's being done at that time; but it has
now been conferred upon herby unan-
imous vote. Cornelia Phillips Spencer
(who is now residing with her daughter,
Mrs j. L. Love, at Cambridge, Mass,) is
a sister of ex-Solicitor General Samuel
r. Phillips of Washington, D. c., and of
the late Rev. DR.. Charles Phillips. Her
father was an eminent professor in the
university. Mrs. Phillips took the course
in the university with her brothers, but
was not allowed to matriculate and re-
cite in the class room with them, She
