HAD AUTHORITIES.


Mr.. Levy explained that he had au-
thorities to show that an abatement
is not operative unless filed within
four days after notice is given. The
abatement in this case was not filed,
Mr.. Levy stated, until twenty-five
days had elapsed.
1t was the first time the matter had
ever been raised in the court, and Mr.,
Levy says that the last ruling he could
find on it was made in 1851. Court took
the papers and seemed to eVlncc much
interest in Mr.. Levy's point.
The lengthy and spirited arguments
were heard in the divorce case of
Pauline Scheuer against Henry
Scheuer. in which rule is pending for
alimony and counsel fees. The re-
spondent COntended that Mrs. Scheuer
has money Of her own and is in every
way able to support herself and pay
her attorney. The libellant went into
the merits Of the divorce case at length
reviewing the testimony adduced at
the hearing which tended to show that
Mrs. SCheurcr'S allegation that her
husband treated her cruelty was Well
founded
The divorce case of Nellie Allen
against Benjamin Allen was submitted
and a decree granted forthwith by
Judge Archibald, on motion of w. T.
Boyle. attorney for the libellant. The
libollant lives on Olive street. this
city. she alleged that her husband de-
serted her March II. 1896 in the sev-
enth month of their welded life. He
deserted her first during their honey
moon and was away for three months.
When he returned she had him ar
rested for non-support. He ran away
and has never come back.

James Kane. the rule to open judg.
m'nt was made absolute and it was di.
rcCtcd that the vote Should stand as n
declaration, the defendant to plead

Much is being expected in Russia
from uralit, an insulating material
invented two or three years ago by A.
M. Imschenetzky. 1t is mixture of
asbestos and chalk, with little sulp-
huric acid and clay containing py-
rites, the whole being bound together
with silicates and colored with red
lead and lampblack, The material is
little aeffcted by freezing, boiling or
fire. It is bad conductor of heat,
electricity and sound, is not affected
by acids; and is recommended for a
great variety of purposes, such as
supplying a shot-resisting inside fin
ish for war-vessels, the making of
military buildings, fremen's shields,
side scenes for theaters, ect. Even
railway cars are to be built from it on
account of its resistance to the action
of cold snd of the suns heat.

In the electric heating apparatusof
NJ. Parvillee, high temperatures are
used, the advantages claimed being
greater economy of heat than usual
and inexpensiveness of apparatus
The heating rods are OF metal-pre-
ferably nickel-mixed with quartz,
kaolin and binding material, the
whole being compressed and after
ward heated to 1862 G. The resist
ance may be adapted to any special
purpose by altering the proportion OF
metal powder used. It is said that
such rod, 2 inches by 2-5 OF an inch
to ] of an inch in size, may be given a
resistance a million times greater
han that of the metal, and heating
capacity fourteen times greater per
unit of surface than that ordlnarl-
ly used. The rods show no signs OF
deterioration after heating to redness
for 400 hours. The heat is regu-
lated by varying the number OF rods
in circuit, and is more conveniently
applied than when produced by a
larger apparatus at lower tempera-
lure, 1t is estimated that, at average
cost of current, three outlets can be

law, while a claimant not nearly SO
we'll off is denied a pension under the
new law, because she is not without
other e of support other than her
daily labor, it seems to the public to
be an unjust discrimination ON the
part of this bureau. Yet the law Gre
ates these conditions and it is not
within our power to do otherwise than
execute the law as construed by the
department, but in nearly all these
cases the pension office gets the blame
when it attempts to carry out the law
as it exists.
"The disability which entities to the
maximum pension (sl2 per month"; I'M
der the new law is substantially the
same as would entitle to "a pension of
$50 per month under the old law. Yet
we find that under the old law only
5l.69l soldiers r pensioned at $40 per
month, while under the new law l63,-
367 are drawing the maximum rate OF
Sl2 per month. Under the old Law
only 1867 soldiers receive So per
month. AS an index to the growth of
the work of bureau it may lie stated
that during the fiscal year 1896 there
were 2.1G2.5S1 pieces of mail received
and sent. For the year 1887 there were
5,O56,11s9 and for the year 1898 there
6.566.9G7. being more that 300 per cent
over the year 1896.
"During President Grants first term
from 1863 to 1872. there were allowed
in all 71,462 claims, and during his sec
ond term there we're allowed 47.:35 Is
claims, and during President Hayes
term, from 1877 to 1850, 39,9l5 claims
were allowed. During the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1898, 52,6s4 original
claims were allowed. 1t will seem that
the number of allowances for the year
1898 was greater than the number of
allowances for the entire four years of
President Grants second term and the
entire administration of President
Hayes.
