A Small Iloueaer of Air.


At a recent meeting Of the French
Association for the Advancement of
the Sciences NJ. Dommer announced
mat DR.. Linde was now engaged on
the construction of a small piece of
apparatus for the production Of liquid
air which will weigh less than two and
a half pounds and will liquefy the air
in eighteen minutes. With respect to
the preservation of the liquid air when
once made, NJ. Dommer stated that
with the latest form of vacuum vessel
or about half a gallon capacity the IL
quid Will take fifteen days to complete
~ evaporate. AS the nitrogen of the
liquid air boils off more rapidly than
the oxygen, the liquid becomes contin-
uously richer in the latter gas, and DR..
borchers has accordingly used the resi-
dual liquid for obtaining the high tenn
perature necessary for producing cal
cum carbide without the aid Of cleo
trlcity. BY soaking cotton wool in this
residual liquid a powerful explosive Is
produced, which, though it must be
prepared on the spot and fired within
a limited period, is nevertheless stated
to be very cheap, as one pound OF ex-
plosive can be obtained for an expen-
diture of one and a half to two horse
power hours. At the Simplon Tunnel
works. therefore, a plant is being
erected capable of producing about n
and one-half gallons of liquid air per

Horses In Count.

A Russian doctor has spent a great
deal of time finding out how much anil
mails can count, and has found that
horses can count more numbers than
any other animals. He has found that
a parrot can count tour, a cat six,
crows ten and some few dogs twenty.
But he found horses that could count
more than this. One would pillow across
a field 20 times, and would then stop
and rest. but it never stopped at 10 or
Il. Always just 20. Another horse al
ways counted the miles along the road
by the white mile posts that were set
up, and stopped every rs miles, as it
had beer taught to do, to be fed. An
other n was always fed when the
town clock struck IL. When the clock
struck II 1t would lift up its head and
listen, but when the bell had stopped
would again droop its ears. But when
he clock struck u It always neighed
loudly for its dinner.
