Electric Lamps for PhOto-Engrnv-

An improved arc lamp of high can
dle-power has been specially designed
and constructed for use in connection
with photo-ergraving. The light OBJ
tanned is absolutely steady and burns
for a number of hours at 5000 candle
power. with a variation of less than
one-tenth of an ampere. Ihoto-en-
gravers and electrotypers who have
used this lamp report that they are
now able to make prints in three to
four minutes. where formerly they
would have to use six 200D, candle
power are lamps for double the length
of time in order to secure the same
result.

the bed room at night. and during the
day the patient is made to spend as

An Electrical Aerial
The aim of modern military en-
gineers is to produce devices which
will shorten wars. and some of the
schemes now submitted to military au-
thorities in this country and Europe
are appalling in their possibilities or
destruction. Hiram Maxim has pre-
dicted that the next great war will see
the introduction of a new and irresist-
ible method of destroying armies or
beleagered cities. A balloon carrying
a ton of dynamite could be made to
rise to a great height, and the dropping
of the dynamite, would wipe out an
army or raze a large area OF a city to
the ground. A variant of this idea
has been designed by an electrical en-
pedo." This consists of a small gas
filled balloon, capable of sustaining for
any length of time from 30 to 40
pounds at an elevation of from 500 to
1000 feet above the earth. 1t carries
a metal cylinder, containing an cleo
trical device. the purpose of which
is to ignite the gas in the balloon at
any stated period. From the balloon
is suspended a basket filled with high
explosives, which will explode with
terrific. force on striking a hard sub
stance, like the earth or walled en-
bankments. The torpedo is so small
and compact that a large number can
be carried by a few men or a pack
animal. Light metal cylinders contain
the gas for imitation, enough being
compressed in one cylinder for a large
number of torpedoes. The inventor
> claims that the handling of the tor
| pedo is s easy and simple that a cor
porars guard can accomplish by its
means what would now require the
| operation of a large force. All that is
necessary: is to approach as neal as
possible to the enemy's lines. and to
ascertain the direction and velocity Of
the lower current. The length of time
it would. take the air current to carry
the torpedo over the objective point
could be thus ascertained, and the
electrical device set at the proper min
ute. The balloon part is then inflated
and the torpedo is launched on the air
current. AS Don as the time at which
the electrical device has been set has
expired. an electric spark ignltes the
gas in the balloon, causing 1t to @
plode and the torpedo drops TO the
earth. The inventor believes that in
the siege of cities this aerial torpedo
will be especially effective. as there is
at present no known defense against
it. and it can he used by night as well
as by day, and by a few men of or
binary intelligence.

The seven wonders of the world are:

the Pbaros of Alexandria, the ang-

The Pyramids are numerous, and
space forblds anything like even II
list of them. The great piles were
constructed Of blocks of red or syeni-
tic granite, aud of IA hard calcareous
stone. These blocks were of extraor-
binary dimensions, and theirtranspor-
tation to the sites of the pyramids
ard their adjustment in their places,
indicate a surprising degree OF mec,

thirteen acres The masonry con>ls'-

of the stone is estimated at 6, 3l6, 600

and from this st,tement it has been
calculated its weight was 100000
pounds The Temple of Diana, at
Ephesus, was built at the common
charge OF all the Asiatic States The
chief architect was Chersip hon, and
Pliny says that 800 years were employ
ed in completing the temple, whose
riches were immense. 1t was 425 feet
long, 225 broad, and was supported by
125 columns of Parian marble (>ixty
feet high, each weighing $50 tons
furnished by d many kings. 1t was
set on fire on the night Of Alexanders
birth by an obscure person named
Erostratus, who confessed on the
rack that the sole motive which
prompted him was the insane desire
to transmit his name to future ages.
The temple was again built, and once
more burned by the Goths in their
naval invasion A. D, 256. The colos-
sal statue Of Jupiter in the temple of
Olympia, at Ellis, was by Phidias. 1t
was in gold and ivory, and sat enthron-
et. in the temple for 800 years, and
was finally destroyed by fire about A.
D. 472. From the best information it
is believed that the Mausoleum at
Halicarnassus was rectangular build
ing surrounded by an Ionic portico Of
thir,v-six columns, and surmounted
by pyramid, rising IN tweenty-four
steps, upon the summit Of which was
a colossal marble quadriga with sta

structure was erected by Altemisia

of Mausolus.
