"a TRIP TO THE AEooN."
One of the Midway Illusions That
Excite and Interest.

The Midway at the Pau-Americau
Exposition in Buffalo, in 1901, will hs
over half a mile long, giving mile or
more Of frontage for the wonderful var
iety OF novel entertainments there to
present. Who but professional OF sx-
perienea could have planned "a Trip
to the Moon?" The voyager is directed
to go aboard the airship Luna" moor
cd at = cOavenient landing Il is night
and the heavens sparkle with a myriad
OF stars. When all Is ready the cables
are throw of and the ship rises steadily
to height OF about two miles. The
air is clear and you can see many
lights on the earth below. We look
eastward over Rochester, Albany and
then southwark over New York. The
earth now falls rapidly behind As noted
by the resistance OF the air which seems
to blow hard in our faces. The earth
becomes largo ball and the moon
grown larger. We are fast nearing the
satellite, and soon find the ship moor
cd to landing in the moon. Guides
receive US and show us to the palace Of
the Man in the Moon. His Majesty
receives the party, bidding tbom vel
come and accords them tho freedom Of
his domains. We are shown about the
Splonded palace and through the streets
Of the City OF the Moon. The ladies
especially are interested in the Moon
shops. The trip may be made with
entire safety, aud the return to
earth leaves one with the remembrance
OF having passed through q wonderful
experience.

How the Burmese Make Fire.


One day Burmese messenger
brought me note. While he was wait
ing for the reply. l observed an object
something like boys popgun sus-
pended around his waist. On asking
what it was he showed me that it was
an implement for producing fire. 1t
was rude example of scientific in
strument employed by lecturers at
home to illustrate the production of
heat by suddenly compressed air. A
piston fitted into the tube; the former
was followed at the lower end and
smeared with wax to receive q piece
of cotton or tinder. which when press
ed into it adhered. The tube was clos
ed at one end Placing the piston at
the top Of the tube with smart blow
he struck it down and Immediately
withdrew 1t with the tinder on fire, the
sudden compression of the air having
ignited it. / was so much struck with
the scientific ingenuity Of this rude
implement that procured it from the
Burman and sentit to the Asiatic So
ciety of Bengal, with short descrip-

from the winter sorts. those which are

The whole country is experiencing an
unusual November cold snap. The sud
den change in temperature plunged the
country into mid winter and made the
cold seem worse than it really was In
many places zero weather ragged but the
record here does not reach that point. Mr..
McClintic furnishes the following from
the official record of the government
station:
At Lewiston the temperature fell almost
uninterruptedly from 44.9 degrees at
about p. III. Of the Ioth to as degrees
at $50 a. III. of the 2Ist, passing through
a range of 40 degrees in about 40 hours.
Thirty two degrees was reached at at 9 q.
m. Of the I9th, and from that time until
5a. nj. of the 2oth there was fall of only
four degrees; this was maintained until
10 a. M, when fall of four degrees oc-
Cured followed by rise of one degree
during the next two hours, it then
gradually fell until about 6:3oa M,
when rapid rise began.
