The Energy OF a Cyclone.


The primary cause Of the low baro-
metric pressure which marks the storm
center and establishes the cyclone is ex.
pansion of the air through excess OF
temperature. The heated air, rising in
to cold upper regions, has a portion OF
its vapor condensed into clouds, and
now new dynamic factor is added, for
each particle of vapor, in condenslng,
gives up it's modicum of latent heat.
Each pound of vapor thus liberates, ao-
cording to Professor Tyndall's estimate,
enough heat to melt five poundr of cast
iron, SO the amount given out where
large masses of cloud are forming must
enormously add to the convection cur
rents of the air, and hence to the storm
developing power of the forming cy-
clone. It is doubted whether storm
could attain, much less continue, the
terrific force of that most dreaded OF
winds of temperate zones, the tornado,
without the aid of those great masses OF
condensing vapor which always accom-
pany il in the form of stormclouds. -

Many believe. says Benjamin l.
Wheeler in The Atlantic, that Constan-
tinople has been systematically forth
fed against the English to the west, but
not, at least by land, against Russia to
the east A Russian army can enter
Constantinople without great difficulty.
When the question Of forcing the Oar
danelles with an English fleet was agi-
tated last winter, the English naval au-
thorities estimated that of the 10 ships
lying at Salonika 8 must be sacrificed
to do it. The cards have been stacked
for Russia. 1t looks today as if The Ill
innate occupation of Constantinople
by Russia were foregone conclusion.
What has England to say? The mat
ter concerns her. 1t seemed for time
that the discovery Of the route by the
cape Of Good Hope would provide an
evasion Of the eastern question and free
her from the necessity Of worrying about
the Egean. But the opening of the
Suez canal has changed things, and, al
if by jealous interposition Of geograph
ic fate, drawn the issue back to the ole
fighting ground in the eastern Mediter
ranean. If she is to hold India and Aus
tralia, England must control the Sue
canal and its approaches.

A Press Built by Franklin.

81 once worked a printing press that
was built and operated for long while
by Ben Franklin, -" said Colonel Charles
Gonter. 1.-The machine was quite
primitive affair, but it answered the
purpose. Twas then boy i'll Lancaster,
Pa, and was learning the printers
trade in the office of the Lancaster
Union. John W. Forney, who made
such success of the Philadelphia Press,
was prentice with me, and we took
turns working the old franklin press.
It was made entirely of wood except for
marble slab that answered the pur-
pose of bed. On this slab the forms
of type were placed, and they would
have to be linked with long, clumsy
roller before each impression.
lone day Forney would WELD the
roller, and the next day it fell my turn
to smear on the ink. We could print
about so or 70 sheets an hour. The work
was laborious, but we performed 1t
cheerfully because of the knowledge
that Ben Franklin had done the very
same work on the press many day be-
fore we were born. James Buchanan
used to come in occasionally and en-
courage us at our task and predict
brilliant career for both of us II WI

"The fellow started ON his long trip

few tbinly populated and remote corners
of the country that could not have some
personal experience Of my invention.
The men finished their trips and wait

whom had expected to answer with a
cry for what had given them remained
mute. A year passed, and every cent OF
available capital had gone into the
scheme. Thousands of dollars had gone,

The Kng,,sb D,slike Of Commerce.

We believe that the English, who are
in continental opinion a nation OF shop
keepers, are not by instinct or by aspira-
ton trading people at all, or even an
industrial one. They are seafaring
people by tendency, and as the sea pro-
duces nothing they are compelled to
trade, aud circumstances have driven
them into the industrial life, but their
proclivity is toward struggle OF any
kind, and not, except as an incident III
that struggle. toward the making OF
money. 1t was quite late in their his
tory that they recognized trading as
their vocation, and much later still that
they surrendered the notion that to be
a trader, whether merchant or manufac-
turer or dealer in money, was to be
comparatively base person. Till with
in the last few years all historians
thought economics rather unworthy
subjects Of their pens, and the social
distinctions drawn against industry
were of the most CALLING character. In
deed, they have not disappeared yet, th'
contempt which was once felt for the
