great tenement house was burning
like finder wood in one of the poorest
quarters Of the metropolis The stairs
had gone UP in smoke before everybody
had left the building, and even the fire
escape down the outside of the building
was cut of by the hot flames from the
lower windows, which had already
peeled off a part of it. a young girl of
Il or 10 was frantically shrieking for
help in ono of the top windows. and a
mother was wringing her hands in pitt
full despair down in the street.
The chief called for volunteers to
save the girl, and three men came for
ward ON the instant, without hesitation
and without awaiting to count their
chances for success. This is the custom
in such cases for no one would take the
responsibility of ordering fireman to
his possible death.
a strong young fellow who had yet
to win his spurs was selected for the
task, and he disappeared quickly
through the doorway Of the adjoining
building. When next the crowd saw
him he appeared at the window just
under the roof, and. grasping the tin
cornice of the burning building next to
him, he swung out into the air and
made his way, hand over hand, for 80
feet through the dense smoke that rose
in black clouds from the lower windows
to the sill where the girl was seen.
She had fallen back into the room
unconscious and was overcome with
smoke by the time he. reached her. A
thousand anxious faces in the street be-
low were tortured with fear for the
hero, hundred muttered prayers went
up for his safety as the fireman disap-
peared into the black cloud, and thou
sand threats sent up lusty shout of re-
lief as he appeared again at the window
a moment later with the limp form of
the girl in his arns.-Harper' Round

THE CLOTHES OF AUTHORS
Some Structures Upon the Dress of Eng
Iish Literary Men.

Novelists and playwrights in sample
quantities are the latest class to come
under the basilisk eye and measuring
tape of The Tailor and Gutter. These
members OF the sister profession of jour
naiism, and perhaps even the severely
judged members of parliament who
have appeared in n like connection, may
be relieved to know that the novelists
and playwrights scarcely excel them as
glasses of fashion and Inolds of form.
By way no doubt of sharpening his pen,
the tailor critic begins with l. Gang
will, whose lounge suit might have
belonged to any period during the last
ten years, and had even reached the
stage of the shabby genteel. " How
ever, it is consoling TO know that Mr..
Zangwill's literary success enables him
to wear frock coat that nearly passes
muster, even though the accompanying
trousers are too short.
Mr.. Jerome, !. NJ. Barrie, Henry Ar
thur Jones and Hall Caine might al
most be called moderately well dressed
i'll nonstylish sort of way. At I'll events
they avoid the shuddering solecism eff
wearing Il light coat and waistcoat with
dark trousers, attributed to Robert
Buchanan, or the mixed styles of w. S.
Gilbert. But the only two members of
the class who unreservedly enjoy the
approval of our contemporary are Sir
Walter Bcsant and Clement Scott. The
former will no doubt be rejoiced to
learn that his clothes might cause him
to be mistaken for "a prosperous city
merchant while Mr.. Scott might
easily be mistaken for prosperous
tradesman,' says a tailor. The force of
flattery could surely no farther go. =

Light and Artificial Fog.

The production of cloud by the action
of ultra violet light was demonstrated
at a soiree at the Royal society by q. 7.
r. Wilson. The beam from AN arc lamp
was focused by a quartz lens in tube
containing moist air free from dust. In
a few minutes a blue fog was seen to
form il the illuminated cone, and this
fog could be made to move by applying
heat to the tube locally. When the III
ira violet rays Were cut off by sheet Of
mica, no such formation took place, and
it is therefore suggested that the small
PARTICLES which give rise to tine blue of
the sky are produced by the ultra violet
rays of sunlight absorbed in the upper
layers of the atmosphere
