Diamond Burned.

At the session Of the American
Chemical Society In the college of the
City of New York. Charles u. Trip.
Ter gives an interesting demonstration
of the manufacture of liquid air.
Among those present were Prof. Raoul
Pictct, of Geneva, who was one Of the
first scientists to liquify oxygen Ex-
periments made, by Mr.. Triplet, Sew
eral gallons OF liquid air we're brought
into the laboratory and Mr.. Tripler
sprinkled 1t oyer the crowd. The Ii
quid, which istextremely cold to touch,
evaporates ina moment.
Curious effects of the liquid air was
SHOWN. Copper, immersed in. the
steaming liquid, in few moments be-
come soft. Steel grew brittle as glass
and was easily broken. Mr.. Tripler
filled a tin cup with the liquid, gave
the cup a squeeze and it fell at his
feet in fragments.
A piece Of steel bicycle tubing,
plunged into the liquid and then struck
with a hammer crumbled to pieces. A
rubber ball, dipped in the liquid air,
froze white and hard, and when thrown
to the floor cracked like an egg shell.
Whisky poured into glass contain
ing liquid air at S12 degrees Fahren-
heit fltoze, In a few minutes, Alcohol
requires, a temperature of 200 degrees
below zero to freeze it, but Mr. Trip
Ter formedna an icicle out of a glass of
alcohol BY pouring it into the extra
ordinary fluid. ,,,-
| TO show the paradoxical nature of
the liquid, Mr.. Tripler hlled a tea
kettle full of it and. placed 1t on
a lighted gas stove. Then he poured
a glass of water into the Kettle. As
the heat OF the stove Increased the
liquid grew colder, until the water was
taken from the kettle in the form of
d lump Of ice.
This is the air we breathe, moth

boils off first" He obtained pure OK
Iygen by pouring the liquid from one
glass to another to hasten evaporation.
Then, placing some of the liquid in a

Prof r. Ogden Doremus, at the close
of the session performed an interesting
experiment by burning a diamond in

City of PittSburg Injured.

Monday morning about o'clock the
towboat Volunteer oollided with ,the
City of Pfttsburg tied at the Landing
on the West Side. The accident was
due to the dense fog which rendered
it impossible to see for any distance
ahead Of the boat. The watchman car
ried a light out and placed it on the
the stern of the boat when he heard
the towboat coming but it could not
be seen by the pilot of the Volunteer
until it was too late The damage was
not great, but it will likely require
some time and a great deal of labor
to make necessary repairs. The stern
rail was mashed in, and some of the
planking OF the deck torn up. The
Volunteer Is one of the Brown line of
tOwboats.

Don't Close the Register.

Good Heavens, manDdo you want
this hotel to burn down?" said on i'm
dignant clerk to a careless ,lpungera at
a local hostelry. The. lounger had
completed his evening task of exam
ing the signatures of recent arrivals by
closing the register as he might appro-
priately have done a dictionary or
city directory But never close hotel
register unless you desire the everlast-
ing enmity of the house. a.. ''"' -
81 don't know where the supersti-
ton comes FROM" said the hotel clerk,
when he had cooled off sufficiently to
allow him to discuss the accident, for
to hotel man the closing of register
is serious accident, but no worse
luck can befall house than to have
some fool come along and close the
register. Why, | won't be able to
sleep for nine days, which is the length
of time that we will be under the spell.
If we can get along for nine days with
out the house burning down or blowing
up the steam boiler, or having a case
of smallpox, we will be reasonably
safe, again. Nine times out of ten
something's happens when a register is
closed. There isn't a hotel clerk in
the country that will allow that book
to be shut. Not at least until it is old.
Old registers serve merely as a record
of our business. But when in active
use a hotel man would as soon think
of dropping match in a can of oil as
to close the book. They say that the
night before the Baldwin burned in
Frisco some smarty played a trick on
the night clerk and closed the book,
and know for fact that it was only
three days before Gumry, in Denver
bew up, that the Register was found
closed The boilers of that house
went straight up insthe air and carried
souls with them. The clerk who was
on when the register was closed es-
,aped' but he quit the h0tel' business.

The |. A. w. and Better Roads.

The Farmers National Congress,
which has just closed its annual ses-
sion at Ft Worth, Tex, has passed
resolutions strongly endorsing the sys-
TEN Of state aid to road building, and
commencing tie efforts of the League
of American Wheemen for its general
introduction.
The passage of thes resolutions
marks signal success for the High
way Improvement Committee of the l..
A. w. 1t means that the farmers who
have long looked with doubts and mis-
givings upon the good roads work of
the u. A. W., are beginning to under
stand that this work is in their own
interest, and that, by working in har-
mony with the l. A. W., they can
bring about the construction of dur
able highways without being obliged to
bear all the expense, as they have so
long supposed they would have to do.
The higble-Armstrong law, by which
stat aid has been introduced in New
| York, provides for a division of the
cost of road construction among the
State, the county and the local town
ship. Many of the towns. s.ayailing them
selves of its advantagGwill secure an
amount of money fronToutside sources
equal to four or five times that which
they raise themselves, most of these
funds coming from the cities, where
rhe tax levied to raise it is but q
single per cent. Thousand Of dollars oI
assessed valuation.
Ever since the l.. A. w. was organ.
lied in 1880, it has been working fol
better roads, but never have its efforts
been endorsed or commended in term.
by a farmer organization. The farmer
National Congress consists of about
$50 delegates, representing nearly
every state. 1t is the strongest agri
cultural body in the United States, 9
thoroughly representative body ol
wideawake, up-to-date, although con.
servative farmers, and was declared by
William II. Hatch, for many years
Chairman of me House Committee or
Agriculture, to have more influence
with Congress than all the other agri.
cultural bodies combined. Its endor.
sement of state aid to roads and the
l.. A. w. work will have much weight
with the Legislature and with the
farmers generally. 1t marks the turn.
ing point in good roads work of the
fla. w. and opens the way for united
action between the members and the
farmers of the United States. The

lating, entitled Must the Farmers

Henry Clews the noted hnancler ana
Wall street banker says:
The closing year has been a remark
able one in many respects. An uneX-
pected war has been fought and won
within its limits. About 100000 ad-
ditional population have come under
control; thousands Of square miles of
thesmost fertile territory in the world
have been added to our domain; civil.
t9atipn has taken a momentous Sdl
forward, and the United States, con-
scious of its maturity and strength has
suddenly taken foremost position in
the family of nations, involving
changes of policy and vast possibili-
ties concerning the future which can
ony be dimly forasscn. Whether we
will or no, events are forcing upon us
q policy Of expansion, which in spite
Of dangers, means an era Of great op-
portunities for American enterprise.
A revelation has taken place within a
few short months; the curtain has been
drawn, and our people are rapidly be-
ginning to realize that their field is the
world, and that in future we must
adopt more liberal ideas ard work on
a larger plan.
Next year we will strike the highest
notch Of prosperity that this country,
or any other country, has ever reach
ed. Good times will embrace the en-
tire nafion-all Industries will enjoy
great activity, and in consequence lab
or will be in demand at good wages.
The people OF this country will be con-
tented, happy, and loyal beyond pre-
cedent. The glorious results of the
Amerlcan-Spanish war are going to be
moro far reaching than the ,mPSt~bril-
liant dreaners Oh AmericAs idestiny
have ever pictured. The worlds COM
merce will be revolutionized The ac-
QUESTION OF the Phlhppihes makes our
Pacific coast of immensely greater i'm
portance and value to us than ever be-
fore. We Are placed mlpsssessfon Of a
front entrance to the vast commerce of
Asia, From ocean to ocean run out
great railroads and under this new i'm
petus these great artepies Of fgt9dawill
Infuse life into the remotest corners
of the lapd. The construction Of the
Nicaragua and Panama canals in our
interests must I2s66at be ohhdertdken.
Their completion will make the Car
ibbean Sea the commercial rendezvous
OF the world.

The Father Of the Senate.

To some men mere length of year;
brings honor not infreuently condi.
ton on the forgetfulness of the past
In in the case of Senator Morrill, age
and long service has but increased the
honor won and steadily maintained
through years Of usefulness. He was
the last survivor in active public life
OF the true and tried statesmen wholed
the nation through the greatest period
OF its history and among them all
there was none more steadfast, ,pursu-
ing the path of patriotic duty, un-
swerved by interest of ambition.
He had a long continuous service in
the Congress of the United States and
longer continuous service in the Sen
ate than any other man in our history.
Their has been men whose. service
coYerd a longer period, but .Morrill's
service had no Interruptions. He en-
tered the House of Representatives in
1855 and after 12 years of conspicuous
usefulness then was chosen to the SEN
ate. where he sat from 1867 until his
death. having been reelected for n
sixth term extending to 1908. He had
been thus 43 years In Congress and 81
years In the Senate. exceeding the
famous thirty years OF Benton.
His colleague, Mr.. Edmunds, was al
ready in the Senate when he entered
1t, but he retired before his activity
had waned. John Sherman who en-
tered the House at the same time was
transferred to the Senate slx years
sooner. but his service was broken by
work in the Cabinet. Mr.. Morrill,
never would accept Cabinet appoint
ment. never would permit himself to
be talked OF any other Office and the
singleness OF purpose of his unwayer-
Ing devotion made his career as not
able for its usefulness as for its length |
OF years. Edmunds and Sherman are
almost the only survivors of the SEN
ate OF the Fortleth Congress in which |
Morrill, first took his seat with the ex-
ception OF Stewart of Nevada and pos
aibly one or two others who will be
recalled when we hear of their death.
The Senate then contained such men
AS Fessenden, Sumner, Wilson An
lhony. Morgan, Conkiln, Frelinghuy-
sen, Reverdy. johnson, James A. Bay
ard, Trumbull, Hendricks. Morton
Grimes. Chandler. Wade. and so on
