JAPAN's GREAT CATHEDRAL.

Novel Method Of Protecting the Building
from Destruction by Fire.
When foreign architects visit Japan
and see the cathedral of buddhism for
the first time, they are generally as
tonished at the magnificent structure.
1t is executed in pure oriental
style. and is richly ornamented with
carvings. II. Ito, famous builder of
Nagova City. designed it. The struc-
ture was commenced in 1878, and was
completed this year. The cost has
been estimated at $17,O00,000. It would
have greatly exceeded this amount had
not numbers of Buddhists worked
without any recompense.
AS the structure neared completion
the committee having the work in
charge was much perplexed as to fire
insurance. They found that no COM
pany would assume the risk on such
valuable wooden structure, the dam
ger of destruction by fire being very
great, and thus the premiums would
amount to an enormous sum of money.
At last the committee decided on a
design devised by DR.. Tanabe. Num-
bcrs Of powerful fountains were con-
structed, both exterior and interior,
which can be made to play on all parts
Of the structure at the same time.
Usually only one great ornamental
fountain is playing, rising to the great
height of 1877 feet. This is probably
the largest artificial fountain in exist
ence, emitting s2,0s0 gallons per hour.
In case Of fire all the water pressure is
directed through the numbers Of ex-
terror and interior fountains; thus
every part of the structure. both in
side and outside, could soon be
drenched, and any conflagration soon
extinp1lished

REGISTERING SUNSHINE

Isoooa's Daily share IL Two and Ons-
HAlf Hours.
The heliograph. although not Of ~
cent invention, IL now coming more gene
orally into use, since the Importance Of
registering the number of hours Of
daily sunshine becomes more popularly
appreciated. A recent publication Of
Prof. Kremser estimates the number Of
heliographs now in use at about 80 in
Great 3ritain, 30 in Germany, 25 In
France, 1s in Austria, 1e in Italy and 10
In Switzerland. The apparatus IL auto
matic. Sunshine registers itself
through lenses, for as soon as the sun
comes out of the clouds sufficiently It
will burn paper underneath the lens,
leaving black mark thereon. Since
the hours of the day are marked on the
paper, it will be apparent with approxi-
mate exactness how many hours each
day the sun really shone. The results
are very surprising indeed; SO, for in
stance, the daily average Of sunshine
for several years amounted in Scotland
to hours; Ireland, 81 hours; England,
hours; Germany. ~ hours; France,
hours; in Switzerland, 6A hours; in
Austria, hours, and in Spain, ~
hours. It is shown that there is more
sunshine in the south than there is in
the north, and also more in the east Of
Europe than in the west; near noun
tains the frequency of fog lessons the
hours of sunshine. Thus the observa-
tory on Ben Nevis shows less than one
and one-half hours-almost an hour less
than elsewhere in Scotland. The form
alton of smoke near great cities and
manufacturing centers also lessons the
hours of sunshine. The interior of
London shows but 2K. hours. against an
average of 3h hours in Greenwich and
to AZ hours elsewhere in southern
England.

GEN. HANcocK's WAY.

How He Stopped the Noise of Q Convivial
Railroad Party.
The following story is told of the

dar:
Gen. W. S. Hancock was in command
Of the train which brought Gen.
Grants remains from Mount Gregor to
New York. He and the staff were in
the coach next to the last. In the rear
car was party Of Pennsylvania mil
1tia officers, who were popping an oc-
casional bottle. of champagne and
smoking quite sociably. Gen. Han
cack saw from his car what was going
on In the car. 1t did not comport with
his idea Of SO solemn an occasion, and
calling the conductor he said: "Wiu
you present my compliments to those
gentlemen with the request that they
cease smoking and drinking?"
In few minutes the conductor re-
turned with the announcement that
the convivial officers returned their
compliments with peremptory decli-
nation to relinquish their cigars or
wine.
"Where is the next switch?" asked
Hancock.
"About five miles below" replied the
conductor.
"When you reach 1t. If the smoking
and drinking in that car have not
ceased. switch it on side track and
leave 1t. You may tell the gentlemen
what have said"
In two minutes the cigars and wine
were not to be seen in the rear coach.
It's occupants knew Hancock meant
Just what he said.

Among the items from this place in
the Tri. County News of last week this
one appeared. Brother Jones, of the
Presbyterian Church, has organized
society for the prevention of vice or
cruelty to animals or something else"
Now, we think that that article is just
as "cute" as it can be. 1t shows the
writer up in his true attitude toward
the church, and other organizations for
the benefit.of the church. The society
referred to is the Christian Endeavor
Society, which was organized with
goodly number of members, and at each
meeting several new members are taken
in, which shows that great interest is
taken in the matter, and much good is
being accomplished. If the writer of
that article were an active member of
this society, it would be more credit to
him than to indulge in such stuff as is
contained in the above article. How.
ever, the society will have another
meeting anyhow, and it asks no advice
frem the author of the "cute article" as
to how it ehall be conducted.
