Electro chemistry, now in its in
fancy, offers possibilities for the fu-

late suggestion by Mr.. Thomas Evan
is that, by COMPRISING sulphur di-
oxide and air into separate carbon
tubes dipping in sulphqric acid, the
two gases-the former the familiar
gas of burning sulphur-may be
made to unite, forming suiphuric acid
aud at the same time yealding an

Dr.. Burwood reflects that the baro-

Bail bearings have been little used
| on heavy vehicles because it is diff
! cult to make them endure the great
pressure. A form of ball bearing de-
vised by Schuppiser has been tried
on street cars of Zurich, at first un-
successfully, as in other experiments,
but more satisfactorily since balls to
take up side pressure have been en-
ployed in addition to those carrying
the weight. In their present form,
the bearings have two rows of sixteen
8-inch balls each, and two rows OF
twenty-six I-inch balls each. To dis
tribute wear, the bearings are arran-
ged SO that they can be moved into
four different positions. Some of the
bearings have now been under test
more than two years, iPodoski reports,
but much trouble was at first expert
enced with the bearings for the balls.
For few months these have been
made of Krupp's crucible steel, which
is thought to have quite overcome the
difficulty. 1t is found that an aver
age saving of Is per cent of the total
power has resulted on the four cleo
trio railways experimental on, and as
high as "a per cent on one line, with

conditions. In everv case saving

That true acclimatization OF the
white man in the tropics is impossible.
with rare exceptions, is stated by Mr..
r. De G. Ward, of Harvard Universe
ty, to be matter on which authorities
are agreed. The chief factors OF dan
ger are the combination Of heat with
humidity, and the prevalent diseases.
Much may be done to mitigate these
evils by hygienic measures, care IN,
drink, the use of cereals instead OF
meats, and we'll regulated exercise.
The healthy districts are high and
dry. The three diseases especially
prevalent are sunstroke, malaria and
yellow fever-the first chiefly infu-
enced by rains, the second related al
so to soil conditions, and the last
finding it's check in elevation. The
upper limit of yellow fever is about
800 feet in the United States, 1890
feet in Mexico, and 1900 feet in

Letter from Leonard Lssman.
In Camp Havana. Dec.

IL O1AP 1ldtduds Lee.
Editor SPECTATOR IL have arrived
here and am we'll pleased with the coun-
try. 1t reminds me more of the valley
OF Virginia than the sand and swamps
OF Florida, only it is little more level.
We are in camp just outside of Havana.
Our trip across the gulf was fine, start
ing Sunday, December 18th, and reach.
Ing here the 2lst. We sailed 100 miles
east out OF Savannah, then south until
we sighted Bahama and the south coast
OF Florida, and followed it until we left
the Keys. Moro Castle was sighted at
$50 p. m. on the Goth. Another night
was spent aboard the vessel, when we
dlsembarked, and on the line of march
we were greeted with cheers by thou
sands of Cubans. The first thing I
learned was the use of Spanish money.
The first is cineo centimos, OF one cent;
the next is two cents (deiz centimos)
and our dime is fifty cents, and one
pesetas is just the same as our twenty
cents; two pesetas is forty cents, four
pesetas, eighty cents, five pesetas, $1.00.
We also soon learned to ask for water,
and all words commonly used. If there
is any of my friends who wish some
Spanish money enclose ten cents in
silver with your return address On en-
velope and will get it and mail you
one piece, which is about the size of a
fifty-cent piece, called deiz centimos.

Steele's Tavern, Dec. 26.-Francis
Garrison Mckay, second son of MI. J
Antrim Mckay, near Greenviile, died
Sunday afternoon, in the twelfth yeal
of his age. Three weeks before be had
violent attack of typhoid fever, com
plicated with some affection of the
brain. The funeral services were held
yesterday afternoon at Mt. Carmel
church, of which he was member, and
were attended by large gathering of
sympathizing friends, Six little boys
acted as pail bearers: Frank Moore,
Fred Shultz, Willie East. Hall Hess,
Louis Heller and Nelson Smith.
Good order has prevailed in this COM
munity so far in the Christmas holt
days, thanks to the fact that there is no
barroom near. The schools are closed

Tore Down the FLAG.

Camp Mckenzie, Augusta, Ga, Dec.
25.-The boys of the First Maryland
thoroughly enjoyed their Christmas din
ner. All that was necessary to prepare
assChristmas Dinner was secured and the
canteen made each soldiera present of
bottle of beer.
The long tables in the mess halls were
used for the first time today to. serve
the dinner, and with turkey, cranberry
sauce, potatoes, &C., each soldier ate to
his hearts content. and it is we'll to say
that never did they enjoy dinner more
al home than they did this one, eaten
off their tin plates and drinking out of
their tin cups. There was plenty of
everything. Mrs. Capt. G. W. Adams
made the boys of Company F present
of barrel of apples. which was sprung
upon them much to their pleasure.
In Company DIS decorations was an
arch with the national flag and a Con-
federate flag joined together with clasp
ed hands. When General McKibbin
rode down the line, viewing the different
designs, and saw the flags, he ordered
them down, and Immediately the boys
of Company ID secured an axe and chop
ped down the arch. The order was much
criticised by the citizens and caused
some very hard thoughts.
