MEASURING The EARTH.
The Mountains and stars Arc. Both
Called Into Use by AHtrOnomers.

The Mountains and Stars Arc Both ,
Called Into Use by Astronomers.
The longest distance ever encom-,
passed by the human vision, so far aA
the records 90, is 1ss miles, between
the Uncompahgre peak in Colorado,
and Mount Ellen, in Utah. This feat
was accomplished by the surveyors OF
the United States coast and geodetic
survey. who are row engaged, in con-
junction with representatives of other
nations, in making new measure
inent Of the earth, says the Philadelphia
Record.
The observers on the Pacific coast
have been able TO signal from Mount
Shasta TO Mount Helena, distance of
100 miles, but have never been able to
get q response. Between the two other
peaks communication has been continu-
ous for an hour or more on several oc-
casions.
The Unconpahgre is 14,3Oo feet in
height while Mount Ellen is 1900.
The longest distance that the human
eve ever reached until this record was
made was between Algicrs and Spain,
l6s miles
The measuring OF the earth, which is
now going on. is no simple task. The
width Of the ocean can only be asccr-
tanned by astronomical observations.
The observers at Greenwich and AZ
Washington note each night the exact
moment Of the rising Of certain stars,
and then, by mathematical calcula-
tions, turn the difference in time into
distance. This is corrected and cor
robornted by other observations upon
other stars, and by n series OF experi-
ments, which furnish an average that
is approximately accurate.
The difference is seldom moro than
a small fraction of second, and is at
tributed to atmospheric phenomena.
The Pacific ocean is measured in a
similar manner by joint observations
with the Lick telescope, in California,
and that OF the Imperial university of
Japan, ut Toxic.

INHALING INSECTS.

NOT a CARELESS BUT A NEEDLESS
THING TO DO-HOW TO AVOID 1T.
Hundreds Of poisonous insects called
germs" are being drawn into the body
with every breath These small crea-
lures at once begin TO live upon the body
and cause what is known as disease. They
must be driven out. How much better il
is though to kill these poisonous germs
as soon as they come. And yet there Is
only one thing will do this. and that is
pure stimulant, preferably whiskey.

stimulants is one Of the striking charac-

ASSETS OF THE WILMINGTON
DENTAL COMPANY TO BE d.
vIDED AMONG WILMINGTON
STOCKHOLDERS.
A decision was rendered by Judge
Butler directing that certain assets on
hand in Philadelphia in the ancillary
receivership OF the Wilmington Dental
Manufacturing Company, of Delaware,
be forwarded to Wilmington, where the
general receivership of the company
exists.
The suit under which the company
was placed in the hands of a receiver,
was brought by Henry Tatnall and
Maria J. Robinson.
The question was argued recently, in
Philadelphia, as to whether certain
funds on hand in the ancillary receiver
ship should be distributed in Philadel-
phia or sent to Wilmington, as a num-
Der Of Philadelphia creditors raised
objection to having the money sent
away and then returned to Philadel-
phia, and asked TO have IL distributed
in the latter city.
Under the order made S55, ,69913 and
whatever additional cash there is aris-
ing from the conversion Of assets,
since the filing of the account, are to
be forwarded to Wilmington.

PHILADELPHIA BARBER YICTIHIZED, J.,
WENT TO RISING SUN, LOST HIS
MONEY AND THEN TOOK
FRENCH LEAVE.

Some days ago a Philadelphia barber
went to Rising Sun, on the Brandy
wine, thinking he could fleece the boys
at poker. They were not novices and
soon got all of his loose change. Then
they decided to run him out of town in
a pleasant manner. One of the boys
stole a chicken and, as though by acci-
dent, met the barber. He asked him to
hold the chicken for a few minutes
while he went to the store.
Almost Immediately afterwards an
other of the boys, attired as police
man, stepped up and arrested the bar
ber for stealing the chicken. A Rising
Sun business man walked mp and Of
fered to go his bond for $500, as a
forthwith trial was held. While the
trial was in progress another of the
boys advised the Philadelphia barber
to take French leave. He acted on the
suggestion and, if he has not tripped
over a rock, he is still running.

CAina's Famous Criminal.

KAng. whose many crimes in China
have kept parts of that country in ter
ror for years, has nt last paid the pen
atty of his misdeeds. Mail advices
brought by the steamer Rio Janeiro the
other day say that. emboldened by his
long immunity from capture, K'Ang laid
siege 10 The heart of the daughter of
n high Manchu official of the imperial
court, whom he succeeded in inducing
TO elope with him early in January.
There was great commotion following
the fight of the couple. and the Pc
king police hestirred themselves so en-
ergeticslly that he was captured late in
the month. K'Ang was taken to Pc
king, where he was tried before spe-
cial tribunal. and although cruel tor
lures, such as kneeling on heated iron
chains, being pricbed with red-hot
needles, ETC., were inflicted to make him
confess to 20 robberies, with murder in
each case, of which he was accused,
he would divulge nothing. Neverthe-
less, he was condemned TO suffer death
by the slicing process. On the day he
was led to die K'Ang sang songs all the
way to the execution ground, and kept
singing even after several cuts had been
inflicted. A stab with a dagger in the
region OF the heart then silenced the
desperado's voice. and the rest of the
slicing and the final severance of the
head from the body were carried out in
silence.-San Francisco Cor. New York
