walking through Main street at about

had nearly escaped his mind, but for
him to come up stairs with him and he
would not be detained long. So they

they got to the top they found that 1T
was not exactly meeting of the

who had deliberately concOcted a

rather mildly He was surprised,
dazed, bewildered, astOnished, and

RAILROADS OF THE WORLD.
The United States at one End of the
List and Persia at the Other.

The United States at one End of the
List and Persia at the Other.
From the Kennebec Journal.
A pretty good test of the civilization of
country Is to be found in its railroad
mileage. Among the important countries
of the world the one which stands lowest
in respect of railroad mileage is Persia.
Persia has just thirty-four miles of rail-
road-the distance from Brooklyn to Fire
Island, no more-and it is made up of the
line from Teheran to Shaabdul-Azin "a
good name for a brakeman's annuonce-
menD; another line twenty miles long was
begun, but abandoned later Persia's dis
tinction of being last on the railroad list
seems likely to continue indefinitely. China
and Japan have very generally been re-
garded as similar countries; but while
China is described by Lord Salisbury as
dying country, Japan is up to date The
area of Japan is approximately 10000
square miles; the area of China is 300 900
square miles or more than eight times
greater. The population of Japan is a.
100000, whereas the population of China is
in excess of 100000 900, or ten times greater,
and yet the railroad mileage of China is
only 124, while that of Japan was 22S7 by
last accounts. The longest of the rail-
roads In China is seventy-three miles,
AIoil IitnSllH 10 ReKiDR. Inc Japanese
railroads carried last year 10000, coo passen-
gers, about 10 per cent. of the number car
rled by the railroads of the United States.
There are in this country 10000 miles of
railways, a mileage greater than that of
the whole of Europe and the whole of
South America combined The extent of
the American railroad system, the wonder
of all other countries, is better understood
perhaps, with knowledge of the fact that
in proportion to population the United
States has more than five times as much
as Germany, five times as much as Great
Britain and Ireland, more than four times
as much as France, more than six times
as much as Austria-Hungary, and more
than twelve times as much as Russia.
The 1aggard among European nations in
respect 10 railroads is, of course, Spain;
the country having the largest railroad
mileage in proportion to its area is Bel
GUM. In respect to the rate of increase
in railroad mileage Russia stands first
with gain of 20 per cent in the last five
years. Germany's being Z, that of France
g. and of Great Britain 8. There are $500
miles of railroads in Africa and 1900 in
Australia.

BANKRUPTCY BILL AGREED ON.
COnferees of the Two Houses Make
Compromise.

Compromise.
Washington, June 15.-The conferees of
the two houses of Congress reached an
agreement to-day on the bankruptcy bill
The measure as agreed upon is COM
promise between the respective positions
of the Senate and the House.
All the House provisions in regard 10
the administration of the law and judicial
procedure under ii were retained.
The principal changes made were an the
provisions relating to Involuntary bank
ruptcy, the grounds on which a discharge
in bankruptcy may be denied and as to
the matter of punishment for offense I'M
der the proposed law.
The House bill carried a multitude of
provisions under which a man could be
thrown Into bankruptcy contrary to his
will. These were enumerated under eight
heads. The conference reduced the head
ings to five, and of these five two provide
practically for voluntary bankruptcy. The
first three are as follows:
First. Where a man has disposed of his
property with intent to defraud
Second. Where he has disposed Of his
property to one or more creditors with in
tent to give preference to them.
Third. Where he has given a prefer
ence through legal proceedings.
The other two grounds, which It Is
claimed by the Senate conferees are prac-
tically voluntary proceedings, are the fol-
lowing:
Fourth. Where a man has made a vol
untary assignment for thu benefit of his
creditors, generally; and
Fifth. Where a man admits in writing
that he is bankrupt.
1t Is specifically provided that no one
can be thrown into bankruptcy unless he
Is insolvent, and the bill, as agreed upon
carries a new definition of insolvency
Under the common law a man Is insolvent
! When he cannot pay his debts when they
fall due; under this bill he is to be re-
garded as insolvent only when his prop
erty, under a fair valuation, Is insufficient
| to pay his debts
Omenses under the proposed law are lin
! tied to two in number The first of these
| Is in cases where property is concealed

enumerated has been committed and tho
second those in which 1t is shown thai

TAKING AIM WITH BIG GUNS.
Marvellous Accuracy Attained in Us4
ing the Huge Death-DeaIers.
From the Philadelphia Times

AHs int lDedln-DPuAeESs
From the Philadelphia Times
The accuracy of the modern rided guns
is one of the wonders that is appreciated
by a comparatively few persons. It can
be readily appreciated how a man with a
small rifle can become an expert marks
man, but to shoot accurately with a big
six, eight or twelve inch gun is a marvel
of modern. engineering. Accuracy with
big guns is comparatively modern In
days gone by when in a naval conflict
broadsides were poured at the enemy it
was not so much due to the sure eye Of
the gunner as it was to luck OF recent
years, however, the gunners on board nay
al vessels have been aided by a scientific
device known as a range finder.
Lieut.. Fiske of the United States navy
invented the first and best device of this
kind known. 1t is based on the principle
of land surveying with transit and engi-
neering chain If a surveying party comes
TO a broad river, whose width has to be
determined, a base line Is measured along
the bank, and the angles which this line
makes with mark on the opposite bank
are measured by the transit. Then, know
ing the length of the base line and the
two angles, the distance across the river
can be determined by trigonometry.
Applying this to the range finder, base
line carefully measured between two
points near opposite ends of the ship, and
over each point range finder, answering
to the engineers transit, is permanently
set up. If the telescopes of the two find
ers are simultaneously converged upon the
same point on a distant object (ship, fort-
ress or city,, the observers will be in POS
session of the trigonometrical data neces"
sary to compute the distance, namely, the
base and the two base angles.
In the din, hurry and slaughter of sea
hight, however, it would be difficult 10
make the necessary calculations, as the
distance between ships, and therefore the
observed angles, keeps changing, and IN
order to make the determination of the els
lance automatic, Lieut.. Fiske placed MIS-
telescopes in the circuit of a Wheatstone
bridge and caused their change of position
TO record the distance of the object on the
graduated scale of q delicate galvanome-
ter. All that was now necessary was for
the Observers at the two range finders 10
Keep the cross hairs of the telescope upon
the same point of the ship, and the electro
current translated, as il were, the angles
into distances and recorded them by the
moye1ent Of a needle over an arc sradu-
ated into hundredths and thousandths OF
yards
