Comprising Everyday Atmosphere Re-
suits In Peculiar Phenomena.
Perhaps the most striking exhibition
Of liQuetied air and its properties which
has yet been made was given by Prof.
Barker in his laboratory at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, Jan. 81. A
report was given in the Philadelphia
Ledger of the following day. The air
was liquefled in New York, two and
half gallons of it being conveyed to
Philadelphia in milk can thickly COW
cred with felt. In the process employ
ed for liquefying the air 1t is compress
sed by pressure of 1000 pounds and
cooled by passing through copper coil
I'd normal temperature. 1t is discharg-
ed through very minute opening,
when 1T expands and its temperature
talls, and, coming In contact with
second coil, coo!s that and its COLI
tanned air at 1000 pounds pressure.
lhls cooled air is discharged also up
on third coil. also containing air at
the nigh Pressure, and in this coll
air runs out in liquid stream quar-
ter OF an inch or so In diameter. The
ilQuld air remains liquid, just as water
does, until its ten perature rises to the
boiling point and then, as the opera
ton OF evaporation requires heat for
Its maintenance the evaporation pro-
ceeds slowly or rapidly, according to
the rate of heat supply. The intensely
low temperature must, Of course, not
be forgotten. Ice dropped into the
liquid causes 1t to boil until the ice Is
cooled. The boiling point at ordinary
atmospheric pressure is-191 degrees
centigrade or-320 degrees Fahrenheit.
AS the boiling point OF nitrogen is
more than ten degrees below that of
oxygen, 1t is found that it boils out
first, and by careful control of the
evaporation the liquid oxygen may be
retained separate; this process, there
fore, affords means Of obtaining oxy-
gen for the many purposes for which
it is required in the arts. The refrig-
erative phenomena exhibited were nu-
merous and interesting. An egg placed
in tumbler of the liquid caused it to
boil furiously. When the egg was
finally cooked" or cooled to the tenn
perature of the air it was taken out
and struck with a hammer, flying into
the finest fragments! Tin became as
brittle as glass, while copper and plat
mum were not affected in this way.
Mercury was frozen so that it was used
to drive nail in board. Cotton sat-
urated with the liquid oxygen exploded
and burned brilliantly.

EulOgy Of Wesley.

Writing in the Christian World or
Prophets of the Christian Faith"
Dean Farrar opens the series by con-
sideration of John Wesley, whom he
eulogizes with characteristic eloquence:
Magnetic with moral sincerity" says
DR.. Farrar, wesley flashed into myr-
lads of hearts, cold as the neither mill
stone, the burning spark of his own
convictions, and thus he saved the
church of which he never was an
enemy. He included her name in his
daily grace before meat. He died in
her full communion. He set her the
example of indefatigable activity, Of
an ungrudging self-sacrif1ce, of that
beauty of holiness which shines in the
life of every Christian who makes his
moral being his prime care. From the
impulse which Wesley gave, originated
every form Of special religious enthu-
siasm since his day. Thus he became
one of the most disinterested of those
benefactors Of mankind who have
raised strong arms to bring heaven a
little nearer to the earth. 1t Is a
splendid testimony to WesIey's moral
insight and spiritual greatness that
mo reformer the world has ever seen
so united faithfuIness to the essential
doctrines of revelation with charity to-
ward men of every church and creed.
Writing in advanced age to the Bishop
of Lincoln, he said, Alas, my lord, is
this time to persecute any man for
conscience's sake? You are man of
sense. you are man of learning; nay,
l verify believe, what is of infinitely
more value, you are a man of pity.
Then think, and let think"

Comedy is not confined to the stage.
A Second avenue belle who graduated
at an eastern seminary has former
school chum visiting her. It goes for
the saying that they are carried back
to the days of their comradeship and
having lots of fun, says the Detroit
Free Press The other evening after
dinner the visitor threw on the cape
and hat of her hostess just to run to
the nearest store and procure supply
OF bright ribbon she wanted to COM
plete her wardrobe for a party that
night. AS she neared the house on her
return the dusk was deepening and she
was startled at the approach of a gen.
tlemanly looking young man who lift
ed his hat and said, pleadingly: Cant
you walk for just five minutes, little
one?" She sprang past him with a
scream and rushed for the front door,
from which emerged on the run the
father and brother of the chum The
youth in front took to his heels and
there was a stern chase covering sew
eral blocks. The old gentleman ex-
amined the tracks in the snow the next
morning and vowed that the william"
must have had wings, as he only touch
ed the pavements at street crossings
Both the laughing girls knew by this
time that the fleeing youth was the
resident girls favored beau, who was
not in the good graces of the father
and had to carry on a catch-as-can
courtship. That hat and that cape
