NOT so HEARTL ESS.

Not every trust is heartless and grinding. Profit-sharing of a friendly character has been established in con- nection with the operation of a laundry trust in Pittsburg. Broadly sketched, the company will put aside s1O0,OOO of its capital to be used for the bene- fit of it's employees. Upon entering the employment of the company there will be placed to the credit of each driver LOGO of this stock and at the end of each year of service $100 will become absolutely his. In ten years he becomes the possessor of $l000 worth of stock. The earnings of this stock thus set aside, while undistributed, will be placed in relief fund to be disbursed by the employees to such of their num- Der as from sickness or accident require aid, and subject to rules to be estab- lished by the employees themselves Upon the death of beneficiary the value of his earned stock will be paid to his dependent relatives. More conside- ration is shown for the drivers than for the other employees, because the drivers have to face all kinds of weather but the other employees, nearly all of whom are girls, are not overlooked. These will be cared for when they are i'll, buried if they die, and be given dowry when they marry, the amount of the marriage portion to depend upon the profits of the trust.
 This experiment will be watched with interest. It is to be hoped that it will succeed.

cities Is given by the fact that the north ern fruit ripens earlier than the south ern, owing to the higher temperature of the northern summer. This brings it into the market at time when there is practically no competition from the southern belt. The shipments of green deciduous fruits increased from 34,042 tons in 1890 to 67,177 tons in 1898. Dried fruit exports in the latter year were 76,662 tons, and canned fruits 47,S97 tons To all this should be added the ship ment of 9,014 carloads of wine and brandy, almost double the shipment in 1891

THE GOLDEN CHRIS.

"Worth her weight in gold" has long been considered fine thing to say of girl. But it now appears that it isn't very warm expression. A thoughtful and mathematical man has been do- ing some figuring, and he finds that several brides have been presented with marriage portions far exceeding their weight in gold. The average weight of a bride will not exceed 130 pounds, or 2,0S0 ounces, and this at s20 per ounce is $41, ,600 The marriage DOT tion of Miss Pauline Whitney daughter of ex-Secretary Whitney was $1,000,- 000, or more than twenty-four times her weight in gold. Miss Margaret Ten nant's marriage portion of s15,000 a year was more than twelve times her weight in gold, while the marriage por- ton of Miss Mackay (now the princess of Colonna) of s2,5OO,OOO was about 63 times her weight i'll gold.
 It is well to have attention called to this matter. Of course a girls worth is really immea surable, but if we are go- ing to continue to try to express it in gold we must make our expression cor- respond with the great expansion in wealth that has taken place.

Although California yields gold no longer in vast amount and the gold mining craze there has long been a thing of the past, that great state is nearly compensated for the failure of the gold crop by the vast fruit raising industry it has developed. The advance is most conspicuous in citrus fruits, the ship ment of which in 1898 amounted to 1S0,- 5Ss tons, as compared with S42o9 tons in 1890. Los Angeles leads in this particu
 lar, being credited with 107,73S tons out of the total. Riverside County, San Bernardino, Orange, and San Diego fol- low in the order named. These are all southern counties, but central and northern counties also have entered this field with much success. Stockton shipped last year 2,9S5 tons, Marysville 2,596, and Sacramento 309.

The Sampo. an ice-breaking steamer built in England, has realized expecta- tions. The Sampo has pushed her way through pack ice which was twenty feet thick, and in one case made her way through a sheet of ice about six and half miles broad at mean speed of three and half miles per hour. These boats have propeller at the bow which clears away the ice as it is brok- en, or puts so much water on top of the ice that as soon as the engines are re- versed 1t is possible to go astern. The results attained by these boats create additional interest over the project of Admiral Makaroff of the Russian navy as regards attempting to reach the North Pole by means of such boats.

The buttons were put in to accommodate passengers, who are not always able to catch the conductors eye when they want the car to stop. A conductor cannot always be in one place. But thus far the push sig nal in our system has been a failure. Passengers rush out to find the conduc- tor or grab the bell rope or sometimes < the rod that rings up the fares There Is an electric button at every window.

PHOTOGRAPHED SOUND WAVES.

Professor Wood Of Madison Makes An.
other Successful Experiment.
MADISON, Wis, March 25.-Professor
r. W. Wood of Madison has succeeded
in making photographs of waves Of
sound, in air. The sound wave is the
crack of an electric spark, and it is IL
Illuminated and photographed by can
of the light of a second spark, which
flashes between two magnesium wires
at some distance from the first, and at
the interval Of about one-ten thousandth
Of a second after the electric spark.
The sound wave is thus caught before
it has gotten out Of the field of the in
strument, although travelling at the
rate Of 1000 feet per second. The wave
appears as a thin circle of shadow,
being only a rapidly disappearing par.
ticle of condensed air, constituting the
sound wave. By exposing a glass plate
near the point where the wave starts,
the reflected wave or echo has been
photographed, which appears as a circle
with equal, but opposite, curvature.
These waves were observed by TOPPER,
q German physicist. a number of years
ago, but they have been photo
graphed before.
