BEATS THE KINETOsCOPE.
The CinematOgraphe, an Alleged
London Development.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.

From the Pittsburg Dlspatch.
New York, March al took in one of
the kaleidoscope rooms on Broadway this
afternoon, having for a companion gen.
tleman who has just returned from Eu-
rope. After he had taken few peeps at
the latest things which the interesting
toys have been loaded, he said: These
are all very well in their way, but they're
not in it with the cinematographe." The
word made big mouthful, and he paused
awhile before resuming in this wise: Just
before / left London, l was one of a Sc
lect company present at private view OF
the cinematographe. What is 1t? Why,
as Celia says, AS You Like 1t 'Oh, Won
derful, wonderful, and most wonderful,
wonderful 1t is the latest development
of instantaneous photography, by which
an accurate development is produced in
pictures of real, living, moving scenes.
To obtain an idea of the impression pro-
duced you have only to imagine a photo
graph come to life, with every movement
faithfully reproduced. 1t is photography
taken in action and applied not TO single
living figures only, but to whole scenes.
A puff of smoke from steam engine, a
the spray of the sea, the gestures and
movements of every individual member of
a crowd, all this Is shown on the screen
upon which the pictures are projected.
The figures are almost life-size, and the
remarkable effects produced are almost
indeseribable and positively uncanny in
their realism.
wonderful as was each one of the
series which had the pleasure of viewing,
l will only bore you with a couple, which
I consider the most wonderful of all-the
Arrival of the Train and Bathing In
the first, you see the rush of the locomo-
tive, the gradual slackening, the stoppage
at the station; the crowd on the platform
steps back, the carriage doors open, the
passengers alight, and others take their
places. An is hustle and confusion In
Bathing, number of lads dive from a
pier into the sea. AS they meet the water
the spray rises from the waves that are
rolling with a Verisimiltude that is
startling. But the interest of the thing is
ineXhaustible for once the flush of novelty
is passed, the attraction may be revived
and revived again by new pictures. Where
an this is going to end one cannot tell.
For the present, however, in this French
development of Edisons toy, London has
the biggest attarction of the sort that 1t
has had for years. OF course, the cinema
tographe will astonish New York ere long.
When you see it you wiz not set me down

WANTS ROAD BONDS.

With the right kind of a road bond
ing law, only those districts in which
a majority of the property holders
were willing TO assume the burden
would at first build permanent roads.
The mossback and woody aphis people
could still go it in the mud, unless
they happened to have enterprising
neighbors. 1t is high time those dis
tricts which are willing TO provide
permanent highways were provided
by judicious enactment with the
opportunity of doing so. They would
have something for the investment
worth to them more than the interest
on the bonds.-Salem Statesman.
The Statesman is Off in advocating
to build wagon roads, The country
is too much bonded now. We are
sending about half of our local taxes
out of the country for interest on
bonds. The Statesman wouldn't have
to pay them that IS sure.

Killed by Light,

Dr. James Weir, IT,, who has studied strange inha bitants of the Mammoth Cave in Kentucky, says that the cele- brated blind fish from that cavern, when placed In illuminated aquaria, seek out the darkest places, and he be- lieves that light is directly fatal to them, for they soon die if kept in brightly lighted tank. The avoidance of light seems to be general charac teristic of the sightless creatures dwell ling in the great cave. Doctor Weir has seen an eyeless spider trying to avoid the light, and animalcules from the waters of the cavern hiding under a grain of sand on the stage of his mi croscope He thinks the light in these cases is in some manner perceived through the sense of touch.

Applied Theology.

StOneWall JackSon'S religion was al- ways spoken of in the same breath as ! his military genius-of which, indeed, it was an integral part. His servant used to say that he always knew when there was to be an especially bloody battle, for the general spent most of the preceding night on his knees. His staff could not fail to be imbued with the sentiment of their leader Mir. J. N. Jones, chaplain in the army of North ern Virginia, relates a characteristic incident that owes its wit and con- plexion to "StonewalPs" well-known religious character.
 During the battle of Malvern Hill, General Jackson rode, as was his wont, into the very hottest of the fire. For some time he and his staff sat on their horses at point at which there was a converging artillery fire, but the gen. eral seemed to be entirely oblivious of it until one of his courierS was killed Then he turned to his staff, and told them to dismount and shelter them selves.
 Major Dabney chanced to be near a very large, thick, oak gate-post, and very wisely got behind that, sitting bolt upright with his back against 1t.
 Soon after Major Nelson rode up to bring some message from the general of another division to General Jack son, and with a soldiers keen eye, took in the situation. Delivering his mes sage, he rode to Major Dabney, salut- ed and said:
 Major Dabney, every shot and shell and Mimic ball strikes just where the Lord permits. You must excuse me, sir, for expressing my surprise that you are seeking to put an oak gate-post be- tween you and Special Providencer
 The major, not at all abashed, re- piled: My dear fellow, you do not understand the doctrine of Special Providence. At this juncture, I look upon this gate-post as a very Special Providence"

Columbian Stamps and Coins.


 Of all the different denominations of Columbian stamps, there are only three that are out of use entirely. They are the fifty ones, the $1 stamp, which is
 worth about $6, and the $2 stamp, on which there is also a good premium. sale at the Washington postOffice, and various other denominations may be obtained at different pOStoffices. A number of 10-cent stamps were offered to an agent recently, but agents are not anxious to invest ill the Columbian is- sue. They can buy those stamps some times for less than face value from in- dividuals who secured large quantities while stamps were sold everywhere. and cannot, on account of the need of money, afford to wait for the premiums. Once in a great while a Columbian stamp is used in the current mail. Stamped envelopes of the Columbian issue bring small premium. A com- plete set, consisting of five sizes of 1-cent envelopes, eight sizes of 2-cent, six sizes of 5-cent and three sizes of 10-cent envelopes, is worth $2. There is also a premium on the centennial postal cards, which were sold at the exhibition only, and are very rare.
 Columbian half-dollars are not as much used as might be expected, from the fact that they are current coins. There is not more than $20 worth of that cast in the sub-treasury and the receipt is no more than about $10 on $20,O0O of coin. They are sorted out and kept by themselves, and are not paid out unless asked for. The demand Is slight, but it is expected that by Christmas time the business firms will want them to give out in change as a sort of an advertisement, for that is the way they did last Christmas. The treasury will then send to Washington after as many as are needed and eX- change them for gold only in large quantities. The issue of 1892 is prac- tically out of circulation, which is per- haps due to the fact that there is a premium on it. There is a Columbian quarter also, although few knew it, and less have seen one. Not even all who attended the Worlds Fair can claim the distinction of having seen one, and people who are supposed to know all about coin do not know the where | abouts of the Columbian quarter. Few money collectors have any dealings with the Columbian issue, and If asked | why, they say ''there is no money in it." Transcript.

An Air Tester.

An instrument for measuring the amount of impurity in the air of room or shop was shown at the Zurich h. dustrial Exhibition recently. It con- sisted of a glass bulb containing a red liquid which turns white on contact with carbonic acid gas. The liquid in the bulb was kept from the air, but once in every 100 seconds a drop, drawn automatically from the bulb through bent tube, fell upon the upper end of stretched cord and began slowly to descend the cord. If the air was foul with carbonic acid the drop turned white at the upper end of the cord, and the purer the air the farther the drop descended before changing color Alongside the cord ran a scale, like that of a thermometer or barometer, indi- eating the degrees of impurity of the atmosphere.

Imitation Seed Packnees.

There seems to be no end of trouble to the Agricultural Department from the distribution of seed this year. The department has learned that requests have been made on commercial seeds men for seed put up in papers similar to those used by the Government and printed in stimulation thereof. Acting Secretary Dabney has sent out notices to large number of seedsmen in re- gard to the matter, stating that the department cannot permit the Govern ment seed contractors or any seeds men to sell seeds in packets bearing the name of the Department of Agricul- ture, or any words which might cause the receiver of the packet to believe tEat it was a part of the Government seed distribution. No seed can be dis tributed free of postage through the mails except that delivered upon the orders of members of Congress by the Department of Agriculture, or sent out directly from the department. The act of March 3, 1875, confines the franking of seeds by members of Congress to those seeds which they receive for dis tribution from the Department of Agri- culture.
