 uagina Machines.

For registering the results of a foot race the human eye and voice seem sometimes painfully inadequate. Close contests of this kind will doubtless end more pleasantly when the new ..iudging machine" described by the Golden Penny, comes into general use The machine, which was invented oy an Australian, is designed to be piaeed at the finish line, and consists or a light metal frame partitioned into two or more divisions. each about four rect wide. On the top of the frame stands q small cabinet containing numbered divisions corresponding to the num- bers of the tracks. The instant the first man passes through his division a shutter falls, disclosing his track number. The other numbers are 1m- mediately locked, except when the ma chine is set for final heats in tE1s case a small cylinder is attached to the machine, and Q hammer head strikes q mark on the revolving cylin- der as the men finish. Thus the exact positions of all the competitors can be told to a nicety. The same inventor has originated an automatic judging machine for bicycle races. It consists of fine. light metal strips placel in small trench about two inches wide, which is sunk across the track at the finish. During the last lap these strips, which are coated with enamel, are placed in position by means Of lever, and the first wheel to cross receives five marks. In crossing however, it displaces one of the strips, and the next wheel, therefore, only receives four marks, the third three, and so on.

What Astounds France.

Whatever may be the opinion of France or of Europe on the subject of ths war between England and the Transvaal, it is impossible not to no- tice the attitude of the entire British nation in face of the very serious check the British forces have experienced. The disaster at Ladysmith has not de- stroyed the nations courage, and, what is more remarkable, the people have not lost their ealmness. Far from seeking to embarrass Lord Salisbury or overturn the government because of the disaster, all parties are united in to furnish means to insure victory Petit Parisien, Paris.

soldier Ants

Before the Biological Society of Washington MT. o. F. Cook described his studies of the African termites, or white ants. Certain individuals in ev- cry nest have no other apparent func- tion except that of fighters or soldiers. Some have long beak from which they eject an aerids corrosive fluid; others inspire terror by making loud clicking noise with their mandibles, but they neither shoot nor bite. One singular observation of MT. Cook was that the soldier ants which rush out to defend an attacked nest do not return to the. nest, but wander about and soon perish from exposure to the outside air"

It's Miniature Log Cabin at the Bottom
 of the Brook.
 Perchance during some summers stroll your steps may lead you by sparkling, woodland brook. Here pause a moment, and placing your face close to the surface of a dark and quiet pool, look closely at the bot tom. AI1cng the sand and pebbles you Will see a number of small bundles of sticks and little cylinders of tiny stones, moving about as though en- doWed with life. If you take them out, however, they are apparently dead and entirely devoid of motive power. But break them open, and you will find each one to be a little tube lined with soft and shining silk, and containing a whitish eaterpillar-like larva. This, then, is the solution of the puzzle-when the grub wishes to move about, he projects the forward part of his body from the tube and erawls around, dragging his house behind him. But the moment he is disturbed or frightened, he draws  back into his safe retreat, wherein he remains hidden as long as danger threatens. You will find the little tubes of various kinds, shapes and sizes. Some are cylindrical, made of sticks placed lengthwise, while others are like log houses of straw, the pieces being fastened crosswise. These min iature log cabins are often decorated with tiny snail-shell fastened to the walls, and moreover, the shells are not always empty. Quite often you may find living snails securely attached, and thus compelled to move about at the will of their landlord. Other tubes are built entirely of bits of moss and leaves. The eommonest forms are those composed of little pebbles or grains of sand. These are usually very regular and smooth cylinders, in which the grains are all of nearly equal size, but among them you may frequently find some with several larger stones fastened to either side in a very curi- ous manner. By far the prettiest houses of all are shaped like little spiral shells and are composed entirely of almost microseopieal stones.- Popular Science

Ben Nevis and Its Observatory.

In the current number of Knowledge Mr Bruce gives an account of Ben Nevis and It's Observatory" The ob- ject of this observatory is to study the height of clouds, their speed, direction and constitution, and to learn as much as possible regarding temperature, winds, etc. It is a true scientific in- stinet that leads us to sound, as it were, upward, just as we sound down. ward and explore at the bottom of the sea. The reasons why Ben Nevis, of all places, was most suitable were: CD Because it was the highest mountain in the British isles, rising to 4.406 feet (2) it's summit was in close horizontal proximity to a sea-level station at Fort William; (3) it was situated in the track of the southewest storms, which influence so greatly the weather of Europe, especially in autumn and win ter.

Burial Alive Made Impossible.

All sorts of devices have been con- trived to prevent people being buried alive, and many surgeons and physi- clans have promulgated methods by which the presence of death could be absolutely determined Cost and un- certainty, however, have usually yiti- ated these ideas, or have, at least, pre- vented their general adoption. Spe- cial1y constructed graves proved to be very high priced, and the most care fully devised methods of the doctors sometimes failed to detect the presence of life in a body which afterWard sat up, talked and lived. The latest in- vention of this kind seems to be free from these two disadvantages is distinctly cheap and appears to be en- tirely certain. The only objection that can be found to it, indeed, is that it preeludes embalming, but the inventor is at much pains to demonstrate that far more people are prematurely em- balmed than are buried alive. His in- vention, he says, guards against this danger, too. All that is necessary for the successful operation of this De- troit invention is an ordinary air-tight casket, some lengths of stovepipe and the body of a person whose death is in dispute. Henry Booth, the inventor, points out that many death is caused by the premature exposure of the body to cold. He therefore directs that when death is supposed to have occurred the windows should not be opened; neither should the body be stripped

publican successor to Mr.. Pettigrew
! have been in every county in the
Hills and the republicans there are
earnestly aggressive, united and
making a splendid campaign, and l
believe we shall carry almost every
county in that portion of the state.
At Lead City they have a democrat
ic club of 147 members who will all
vote for Mckinley. Old party lines
in the Hills have been broken, and
the republicans have glinel from
both the democrats and populists.
Many democrats haye left their par
ty on account OF Brvanism. and the
populists have left the fusion party
because they see that it means
democracy pure and simple, and
whenever an old line populist be.
comes convinced that there are on.
ly two parties, republican aud dem
ocrat, he Immediately becomes a
republican.
"On this side of the Missouri riv-
er find my old line populist friends
now ssupporting Mckinley. They
realize that populism has been
crucified by Bryon and they do not
propose to be nailed to democratic
cross.

IMPERIALISM.
What Caused the Issue
and What Ends 1t.

The Philippine question is nm na-
ayoidable incident OF the Spanish
war. Both republicans and demo-
Gratis demanded the war, and in do.
ing so demanded that the Spanish
fleets be destroyed wherever found.
There was no division of opinion
on that. One feet was found I'M
Manila bay and destroyed, together
with the land batteries. That
moment the U. S. became responsi-
BILE for the safety Of the foreign lives
and property there.
The treaty with Spain gave US the
islands. Mr.. Bryan and democratic
leaders joined therepublicans mask
ing congress to accept that treaty.
Thus the destruction OF the Span
ish power, and acquisition of the is
lands is due to the work OF both re-
publicans and democrats.
Up to this point both parties are
together, and yet had it not been
for both these essential points Wa
would now have no additionalre.
sponsibilities there AMI no Pni!lip-
pine question.
The war and the treaty imposed
responsibilities and obligations this
country can not honorably eva1e--
and will not.
President Mckinley explains very
plainly the republican n purpose in hi,
letter OF acceptance and the Ameri
can people can safely rely on their
own Congress to do the right thing
by the Filipinos. Here is whut the
President says:
1t is our purpose to establish IN
the Philippines n government suit
able TO the wants and conditions of
the inhabitants and to prepare them
for self-government when they are
ready for it. That, am aiming to
do under my constitutional authori-
ty, and will continue to do UNTIL
CONGRESS SHALL DETERMINE
the political status oil the inhabit-
ants"
s'Imperialism" is a pipe-dream-
No one wants it. The war with
Spain was not partisan the treaty
was not partisan and Mckinley de-
clares that Congress shall deter i,
what % do W tn the 'pinos.
