Science for Penny Tossers.

From the Saturday Review
If a couple of hundred coins are placed
upon tray and tossed on the table repeat
eddy. it Is plain that at each throw any
number Of heads from none to 200 may
turn up after each throw. If there were no
trick in the business. none and 300 would
very rarely appear. Most frequently the
difference between heads and tails would
be more or less even.
Now, supposing We were to take piece
of paper ruled into 200 vertical columns,
and to write the numbers from nothing to
2OO in order along the foot of the columns
Then suppose We sat down and tossed the
tray of 200 coins few thousand times, at
each toss counting the number of heads
and placing a black mark in the proper
column. we should find that the middle
columns would soon increase in height,
while the lateral columns would increase
much more slowly. After a sufficient num-
Der of experiments, providing that the
tossing was fair, the top of the columns
would form curve, rising regularly from
the nothing to the hundred column, and
Such curve would be nearly what a
mathematician like Prof. Pearson would
call the normal curve of frequency.
Surprising, however, that when the opera
tor was not looking, after each throw
some one were to turn round half dozen
or so of the tails to heads, it will readily
be understood that the resulting curve
would not be symmetrical but would
bulge out on one side Of the middle line. A
large number Of other disturbing causes
would alter the curve in definite fashion

ITS ADVANCED IDEAS.

The President on the Associated
Press Latest Exhibition of Enterprise
The dispatch announcing the establish
ment of a daily news service between the
United States and Mexico by the Associ-
ated Press was shown to. President Cleve-
land and the interest of the chief magis-
trate of the United States was at once ex-
cited by the news.
After reading the dispatch. Mr.. Cleveland
expressed great pleasure at the assurance
of a mora vital connection between the
two countries and warmly commended
the Associated Press for its enterprise,
which, he said, would doubtless be produc-
tive of much good.
1T is a cause for great congraula ton"
the President said, that the adjoining re-
publics of the United States and Mexico
are brought into closer communication
through the enterprise of the Associated
Press, and 1 am sure this last demonstra-
ton of its advanced ideas as a news
agency will result in great benefit to the
people of both countries"

A Dutch Funeral Car.

Letter From In Hague.
funeral car in Holland is the queerest
and most media eval-looking of convey
ances. Imagine the horses entirely hidden
under long, sweeping draperies of black
cloth, like the steeds in the illustrations to
Froissart. These draperies reach to the
ground, and all that is seen Of the horse
is his solemn eye peering through the eye
holes. The car itself is driven by coach
man draped also in black, with a perfectly
huge shovel hat, rather like that of Don
Baslo' in the Barber of Seville" only
much more exaggerated; while the coffin,
or its absence, is completely hidden from
view by the mass of heavy black draperies
that descend from the roof of the car
nearly to level with the wheels. On the
whole the car looks like a perambulating
mass of black cloth, and is neither beaute-
Gus nor imposing, though distinctly antique
III appearance.
