LIQUID AIR.

Prof. William Simon, of Baltimore
lectured Tuesday night at the Academy
of Music in that city, on liquid air.
Professor Simor secured the lqued mir
he used Tuesday night from Mr.. Trip
ler's laboratory in New York. 1t was
shipped at l p. H., Tuesday aud then
weighed forty-ive pounds Tuesday
night at the lecture there were but
twenty-eight pounds, the other seven
teen rounds having evaporated.
Liquid air is one of the most re.
markanle discoveries said the lectur-
er. Few would believe a few years
ago that it could be carried in milk cans
through the streets of New York. A
milk can brought the air from New
York Tuesday. Two conditions alone
are essential sufficiently low tenn
nera'ure and the application of sufh.
Gent pressure. The pressure without
tae req ;isite low temperature will not
accomplish the work This liquid air
was subjected to pressure OF IA, 900
tons to square loot at temperature
OF 312 degrees helow zero, Fahenheit "
He said scientists believe the acturai
zero 10 be $50 degrees. By sJereop
ticcn views he gave portraits of caemi-
C scientists, of Tripier and his IL bora
,Ory. He then proceeded to 0enuu
stEate how cold liqneied air was ia
comparison with the ordinary tempera-
jure.
He opened the can, dropped dippeT
into the all and then emp,ie6 the COT
tents upon the floor. From the dipper
TO the stage there was white cloud,
resembling snow. 1t Has solidifed by
the surrounding air. He poured some
on cake of ice and it leaped TO the
floor like water from red not stove
The ice was hot in comparison to the
ique6ed air He poured some 10 Il
glass and it boiled, because the temper
atUre of the glass was like redhot lea

um hulbs and passed them 10 the au-
dience for inspection. The liquid Wa

He then cooked in d kettle at one time
NEST, steel, parsfli0e, rubber balls, sof

it to the audience, but before it came
back the atmosphere had thawed the
mercury and the hammer handle float
ed in liquid. Mercury freezes at 40
degrees below zero.
Whisky was frozen solid-made into
a whisky-ice. "The whisky is now in
shape" suggested Professor SIMON,
'for those VINO will not drink it," Il
was passed to the audience, but no one
ate it, Alcohol was frozen into crystals
then given the consistency Of honey.
A balloon was filled with Baltimore air
and this air was liquefed. Many other
experiments were performed, much to
the edifcation and entertainment OF
the audience.

the sugar barrel upon which he sat, and
glanced lazily at the speaker, who con-
tinued:
"That heifer was the meekest, gentIest
thing you ever seen. 'Peared like

she just kicked him over an then kicked
him for fallin'. She broke the milken'

kick the stars out O. heaven. strapped
up one front leg an then one hind leg,
an when she'd 60 to kick down she'd
go k flop an wouldn't git up. Then
I'd shut off her wind till she got up an
go at her agin. Finally tied her head
up close an put rope round her nigh
hind leg, an run it out the barn door
an round post. When she commenced
kickin' 1 commenced pullin' the rope,
an in bout a pair O. minutes 1 had her
stretched out like cloths-line. Then
MIXED her. 'Peared like she knew
when she was beat, fer she plum give
up then. Every time l MIXED her,
had to run her into that stall an go
through the same performance. Be-
fore the summer was gone, that gOl
darned heifer, when she saw me comm,
would just poke off into the stall an
lift up her foot an I'd throw the rope
round it loose, 'thout ever tryin' her 'er

A Broken idol.


Often in the light of April's mellow evening,
With rhythmic queenly step and stylish air,
She hurried past my diney office window
With the sunlight glinting in her yellow
hair
I had watched her in the gray of wintrv
evenings
When the brooding mystic shadows PLAYED
their part;
Every patter of her arctcs on the pavement,
Left patter echo in my empty heart.
And 1 really thought that as the year grew
softer,
And the melting mood of Nature wrought
her charm,
That my fairy With her modish Easter bon
net,
Challenged me with invite ton aim ost warm
In silent alteration did bow me
Every evening at this A pril-n naiden's shrine
A sanctuary in my heart was furnished
With an image of her face and form divine
And often late sat with pipe of comfort
And watched the smoke cast shadows on
the wall;
And conjured up future rich With promise,
Where my fairy queen would be my all-in all.
Alas that every dream must have1tS waking,
And all our idols be less true than fair,
The Imp of Fact lays waste our field of fancy
And we weep to see our fa1lacies laid bare.
1t happened that met her, when the music
OF a Wagner waltz, Strauss, 1 can't tell
which,
Filled my very heart and soul with exaltatiOn,
Made my languid blood voluptuous and
rich.
About her form, her beauty made halo,
Her shining eyes were like summer sea;
With palpatating heart bowed before her,
And the aura of her soul incOmpassed me.
And when 1 asked her if she'd have gldcies
Her answer almost threw me in fit.
'Just bring this high-born gal a hot tomale.
An ice for this warm baby? Well, guess nit -

MONKEYS ESCAPE.

Whether Darwin was right in his
theory that men sprung from monkeys
or not, am not sure. But if anybody
ever did, it was disreputable friend
of mine, who was the very image of
one. So the boys gave him the sobriquet
of monkey. He seemed to possess all
the traits of one too, for he was as cum
ming, comical and as thievish as any
monkey you ever seen. One night l
was in notion store, purchasing some
goods, when Monkey came in, so l
determined to watch what he would do.
1 saw him stow some silk wipes away
under his coat and few other things,
and then start for the door. But as he
was passing the counter he happened
to see big clock within reach, so he
stopped, and considered whether he
could take it. He came to the con-
clusion that he could, so he stood look
ing innOcently at some other things for
a little bit, watching for a chance to
nab it. Just as clerk near by turned
his back for moment, Monkey reached
over the counter and took the clock
and started for the door. But the clerk
turned around and saw him making
away with it, so he did foolish thing,
he hoIlerd at him, jumped over the
counter and started after him. Just as
Monkey was going to go out a fiaty
stepped into the doorway and spread
out his hands and legs. The clerk was
about on him now, for Monkey stopped,
puzzled what to do; but it was only for
moment. Just as the clerk made a
punge to grab him, monkey let the clock
fly at the fiaty's head, and at the same
time dived between his legs. The clerk
lost his balance and shot, head fore

most, into the cops belly, knocking him
over on top of poor monkey, with the
wind knocked out of him. Monkey
told me afterwards that he thought the
store had fallen on him when that COP
per came down. The cop rolled off of
monkey in his agony, for he was hard
hit, and before either of them could
collect their wits, monkey was off and
made his getaway. NJ, J.

A MOUSE STORY.

L was an eye witness to a little act
performed by tiny little mouse Sat-
urday evening, that would have done
credit to many of the human race. [
was formerly in the habit of placing
my supper-pan on the floor, after put
ting away some of those "em balmed
ralsOns.' But we know here, that the
least bit of noise on the cell floor annOys
the occupant of the cell underneath.
Well, was aroused from Dreamland
several times by the rattle of the pan,
and when 1 turned over to ascertain
what the matter was, everything was
as still as death, with the exception of
that old familiar tread of Conamara
Johns. But to return to my friend
Mr.. MouSeletS. In order to avoid
disturbing my neighbor below, 1 placed
the pan on top of my water jar. Now
when the cover is on that jar and pan
sit on top of that, it is, 1 should judge
about one foot from floor to pan.
slept good for several nights and was
sure the mice in my cell would not
disturb me in the future. But Satur-
day evening l awoke from pleasant
dream by the rattle of the pan.
turned over and all was still, even the
water. 1 got up to see if my shoes were
near the jar, thinking his Mouselets
had taken advantage of the occasion,
of hn
There was nothing within foot of the
jar, so [ concluded to lay down and
await his return. 1 had not long to
| wait, in fact, had scarcely got in com.
Portable position, with my elbow on
pillow and my head resting on my
hand. when my intruder entered and
made couple of laps around the cell.
Then he took half circle and came
face to face with the jar, put his little
front paws up against the side and ap-
peared to be guaging the distance and
forming plans.
Then he backed away from it about
two feet and started off like "four
time winner" and when within about
four inches of the jar, would spring in
to the air, and, to my establishment,
would strike that pan and fall back to
the floor. He repeated the trick four
different times, only to land on his poor
little back on the floor.
Well, 1 saw he was so determined to
succeed, 1 felt like getting up and place
ing it on the floor for him, but he
finally got good spring and grasped
the edge and struggled for second,
and 1 would have gambled dollars to
goldbugs, while he hung to the side of
the pan, that he would drop once more;
but felt like applauding him when he
landed. He must have just got out of
the hole, as he spared no time in dig
ging into crust. 1 was glad it was
| there, for l know he would not like the
embalmed fruit.
But the best and noblest part is to
come yet. While he is feasting in the
pan, another Of the same species enter
ed and seeing his pal, he made several
vicious passes at the pan. But they
were merely passes; he was no jumper.
After trying again and again, he finally
sat up on his launches at the bottom
| of the jar, would squeek something up
