somewhat similar to mine, by the use of DR..

that he would speak for himself and
for . brother bishop, who, unfortunate

TO say that his brothers diocese had
gone to the dogs! Ageneral gloom fol-
lowed these words. He went on to say
that the bishop had found so many in

had to build a church. As there was no

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

-England's iron and steel trade is inn
proving. The imports of foreign metal
in 1896 were $20,O00,0Oo higher than in
either of the two precedingyears.
Australia had last year 9,76O miles
of railway open. The capital expended
on them has been S537 ZOO, 900; the net
revenue over working expenses is 2A
per cent wt&
DR. Nansen will receive the special
gold. medal which the Royal Telegraph
ical society intends to present to him,
from the hands of the prince of Wales,
who will preside at the meeting.
r Notwithstanding the political
| troubles in the Transvaal at the begin
ming of the year, the output of gold
from the Witwatersrand district for
1896 is the same as for 1895, about 1885,
900 ounces.
Prof. Rudeloff, of Berlin, recently
demonstrated that both the strength
and the yield point of wrought iron and
steel are increased by cooling below the
freezing point. The angle through
which the materials may be bent de-
creases, however, with the decrease in
temperature.
What is considered good-sized or
der for telephone material was placed
recently by Wall street export firm for
prompt shipment to Japan. Heretofore
the telephone and telegraph instru-
ments and materials, which the Japan
csc do not manufacture themselves,
have been bought principally in Ger
many. 1t. is, therefore, of interest to
note that American manufacturers are
beginning to gain ground in this direc-
ton.
The production of minerals and
metals in the United States for the
year 1896 is given total value OF $685.
311.46S, showing decrease as compared
with 1895 of $24, es9, 266, or about 3 W per
cent. This decrease was largely in
values rather than in quantities; in
none of the chief articles was there any
marked decrease, while in several there
were considerable increases. The total
production of metals in the year 1896
was valued at s242, 81, Ash, an increase
of $1,694,1f1 over the previous year.
while the value of nonmetallic sub
stances was $40, ,9S7, decrease of
S26, 3S3,377 from 1885. A large part of
this was Que to the lower values of coal,
stone, and few other important sub
stances, very little resulting from
the smallerquantities

The Vale Illus,vc

There lies so near US, close at hand.
A vale Elusive, spirit land
'Tis bridged by silence, cross which roll
The noiseless charicts of the soul.
Wo touch its bounds with pnuf1]ed tread.
And lay within its bourne our dead.
And wait with bated breath to hear
Some echo faint from on. its sphere.
But silence seems to mock our signs,
Since speechless courtiers of the skies,
Invisible, receive our blest
And bear their spirits into rest.
While sense and reason wait in gloom,
Faith tarries at Emmanuers tomb,
And sees its hopes triumphant rise
from out deaths silence toward the skies
