Seaweed and Sewage.


An interesting paper read before the
Royal Society of Edinburgh, and published
in the last number of the Proceedings"
of that learned body, deserves the attention
of sanitarians. The paper is entitled The
Seaweed Ulva Latissima, and Its Relation
to the Pollution of Sea Water by Sewage"
The authors are Professor Let's and Mr..
J. Hawthorne of Queens College. Belfast.
1t appears that for some years the upper
reaches of Belfast Lough have been trou-
bled by a serious nuisance, arising from
the loading of the air at low tide with the
vapor known Sulphuretted hydrogen gas.
This is the gas familiar to every school
boy who has dabbled in chemistry as The
prince of stinks.' When l add that it is
ms gas to which one species of the eggs
altogether recent" owes it's peculiar Jdor,
l need not further dilate on the noxious ia
ture Of the Belfast low-tide nuisance. In
the north of Dublin harbor the same pecu-
liarity exists. Naturally, people set down
the odCr as due to the sewage, pure and
simple, but Professor Let's and his col
league assure us that it Is Intimately con-
nected with the growth of the ulya,
green seaweed with broad fronds, familiar
to most people under the name of the 'sea
lettuce" Their researches have been of a
place, they show that when the seaweed
decays it is attacked by certain species of
microbes, whose action is associated with
the production of sulphuretted hydroge n
gas. But the main point which concerns
the public health and the question of sew
age disposal in the sea is the fact that the
sea lettuce appears to be a seaweed OF

Says He Can Temper Copper.
From the New York San.


James H. Duffy, p civil war pensioner of
Machias, Me-, says that he has discovered
the lost art of so tempering copper that it
will take and keep edge equal to that
of steel. Mr. Duffy lives on small farm
on the road from Machias to Gardner 8
lake. Fifteen years ago he set up a home,
made a blacksmith shop, and has since
spent most of his time experimenting with
copper metah in various ways. About the
time he set eup has shop he noticed that
there was a great waste Of the solde1iT.g g
coppers used in soldering the sardine tins
if two old coppers could be welded together
into one good one II would be worth some
thing, but to weld copper required heating
which spoiled the copper for soldering pur-
poses.
He began experimenting, he says, with
the result that a few years ago he surprised
the factory owners by taking lot of cast
off soldering coppers back to them nicely
welded together and proved that they were
better than before, because the copper did
not wear away 80 fast. He did not cease in
his experiments The result is, he says,
that he has discovered the process which.
If not the one by which the ancientS tenn
pered copper, at least-does the same work.
He has made and exhibited here a copper
hatchet with an. edge apparently as keen
and strong as steel, also stone chisel and
several broadswords. The hatchet has
been sent to the Pan-American expositi,n,
and he Is making collection of samples to
send to the same place. He asserts that his
discovery is very simple, and that every
daily but fails to see it. He thinks that
what he has discovered is but tho begin-
ming of a great series of discoveries which
must follow 1t. :.

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, October 9, 1901.
The Low campaign opened tonight with
mammoth ratification meeting. The Tanma-
ny campaign has been proceeding in the US
ual manner for months. By the usual man
ner is meant the lining up of the district
forces; the counting of noSes-for there is
little scratching where there is a Tammany
candidate to be voted for 1t is too early to
discuss the chances of the refo-m-republi-
can ticket. Precedent would indicate a vic
tory for Low. but on the other side of the
fence. Shepard's election is predicted by
60, ,000 ma jority. Therefore, as it is too ear
y to indulge in figures, it is interesting to
speculate upon Shepard's position should
he be elected. Will he follow his past record
for reform or will he be simply Tammany
Hall mayor with all that that title implies?
Tanmany politicians greatly amused
by the talk of Brooklyn democrats about
Shepard being an Independent mayor if he
should be elected The workers of the or
ganiZation have heard such talk before
about other candidates, but they do not re-
member the man put in the mayors office
by Tamqnany who did not obey orders.
Every Tammany man who talks of the
matter says that if Shepard is elected he
will appoint to every office this side of
the East river the men selected for him by
the squire. Big Tim Sullivan, which
ever happens to be in control of the ma
chine at the beginning OF next year. Those
who familiar with the new charter say
that it will be absurd for a mayor elected
by the organization to talk about setting
up in business on his own account

ODDS AND ENDS in

CHEMISTRY OF TEARS.
Lime and Soda Emitted From the
Lachrymal Gland.


From the Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette
Tears have their functional duty to ac-
complish, like every other fluid of the body
and the lachrymal gland is not placed be-
hind the eye simply to fill space or to give
expression to emotion. The chemical prop
critics of tears consist of phosphate of lime
and soda. making them very salty, but
never bitter. Their action on the eye is
very beneficial, and here consists their pre-
scribed duty of the body. washing tho--
oughly that sensitive organ, which allows
no foreign fluid to do the same work Moth
ing cleanses the eye like a good, salty
shower bath, and medical art has followed
natures law in this respect, advocating the
lnVlgorat1ng solution for any distressed
condition of the optics. Tears do not weak
en- the sight. but improve it. They act as a
tonic on the muscular vision, keeping ;nc
eye soft and limpid, and it will be noticed
that women in whose eyes sympathetic
tears gather quickly have brighter, tender
er orbs than others When the pupils are
hard and cold the world attributes it to
ones disposition, which is mere figure of
speech, implying the lack of balmy tears,
that are to the cornea what salve is to the
skin or nourishment to the blood.
The reason some weep more easily than
others, and all more readily than the stern
er sex, has not its difference in the strength
of the tear gland. but in the possession
of more delicate nerve system. The nerve
fbers about the glands vibrate more easily,
causing a downpour from the watery sac
Men are not nearly so sensitive to emotion
their sympathetic nature-the term is used
In medical senSe-is less developed, and
the eye gland is therefore, protected from
shocks. Consequently, man should thank
the formation Of his nerve nature when he
contemptuously scorns tears as a womanS S
practice. Between man and monkey there
is this essential difference of tears. An ape
cannot weep, not SO much because it's emo-
tional powers are undeveloped, as the fact
that the lachrymal gland was omitted in
his optical makeup.

Bexiers' Annual Festival.


The charming French town of Beziers is
each summer the scene of a singular fete
in which all the people take part either
as performers or spectators. The days
amusements is given at the expense of a
native of the town, NJ Castelbon de Beaux-
hostes, who five years ago conceived the
happy idea of utilizing the fine natural
amphitheater of Beziers for the represen-
tation of a vast lyrical work such as
"pejanere" or ''Promethee." employing in
common work all the talent that the
place affords. An immense stage is con-
structed in the open air occupying third
of the space, and scenery is painted rep
senting sea. meadow and mountain Hun
dreds of singers and six different orches-
tras combined supply the music, vocal and

Surrounded by Machine Men

In the event of ShepardS election he will
be surrounded and his board of estimate
controlled by machine Tammany men.
Tammany, if successful at the polls, will
have four members of the board of est-
mate, with nine of the sixteen votes That
body is the real governing power of the
city, controlling all bond issues ana an
preparations. The new board will be com
posed of the mayor, controller. president
Of the board Of aldermen and the five bor-
oush presidents. all elected officers. The
mayor. controller and president of the
board of aldermen will each have three
votes, the presidents Of Manhattan and
Brooklyn two votes each. and the pres-
dents Of the other boroughs one vote eacn,
a total of sixteen. If the Tammany ticket
wins the controller, president of the board
of aldermen and the presidents of Man
haitian and the Bronx will all be straight
Tammany men.
They will have total of nine votes
against the mayors three. the Richmond
borough machine is mere annex of Tam
many, and if it elects the borough presi-
dent then he would vote with the larger

LOG CONDUITS.
Old Wooden Water Pipes Unearthed
in Philadelphia.

From the Philadelphia North American
A century ago log conduits were laid in
the streets of Philadelphia to provide a
water supply for the use of citizens and for
fighting fire. During the past fortnight
workmen engaged in laying big iron mains
in Market, Arch and other streets have un-
covered many of the ancient logs-links
which connect the eighteenth with the
twentieth century.
Dusty records announce that in 1901 af-
ter many experiments and great labor
100000 feet of wooden pipe had been laid
connecting the Schylkill with the city and
providing pure water supply for sixty
three private houses. four breweries and
one sugar refinery. The cost of this enter
prise $220310 Before the close of
1893 many more conduits had been laid
and general supply of water obtained for
the city. In 1903 the old-time bucket bri-
gades' gave way to the new fire fighters
the men who ran with the old machine"
Then began a career of activity which
spanned seven decades, and which has sup
piled some of the most romantic and thrill
ing records to be found in the archives of
Philadelphia. Hose and crude kind Of
carriage were purchased for s9S in 1s03
and thereafter the wooden conduts poured
streams of Schuylkill water on all fires in
the city.
The logs, most Of them spruce, yellow
pine or oak. were about eighteen or twenty
inches in diameter. They were drilled or
bored out by three-inch augur, and con-
nected by cast-iron tapering sockets. Those
recently discovered are well preserved and
could be used today for conduits. When
the first Schuylkill connection was made
receiving reservoir was built in Central
Square, which was subsequently rechrist-
ened Penn Square, and is now occupied by
the city hall. The building was considered

Croker evidently recognizes all this, for
he is endeavoring to make the issues
souarely on party lines. The literary end
of his campaign and the Tammany SPELL
binders will strive to remind the public
that Shepard is democrat and Low re-
publican Frantic appeals are to be made
to all kinds of democrats, gold men and
Bryan men, to be loyal to their party. The
squire wants little possible said of
local matters and local issues. The gen
eral order for the Tammany campaign is
to create as much partisan feeling as pos
sible and then keep on appealing to demo-
Gratis to vote for Shepard because he has
been all kinds of a democrat. The Tam
many candidate for mayor is to follow the
same cue that the squire has passed to his
campaign workers. He is to attempt to
make an issue of democrats against re-
pubicans. In all his speeches Shepard is
expected to talk chiefly about being dem
ocrat and try to arouse party feeling
1t is stated on good authority that, de-
spite an outward show of confidence,
Croker is alarmed over the outlook and
it is also stated that he is preparing to
issue a personal statement. This state
ment, it Is asserted. will eliminate him
from the forefront of Tammany issues. 1t
will also be an appeal to democrats to vote
for Shepard and all the other democrats
named for Office by the squire. Croker is
very sensitive man, and his feelings have
been hurt many times since he came over
from his English home to name candidates
for Tammany. Some of his tenants have
been so rude as to tell him that if he did
not want to remain the chief issue in this
campaign he had better go home to Vantage
and stay there until after the election. He
has also been told that he can never again
spend ten months of a year at his English
home and then come over and run Tam
many Hall in his personal interests.
Signs of Revolt Everywhere.
Signs Of revolt against Croker's methods
are visible In every district. The betting on
the result of the election is said to have been
a great surprise and disappointment to the
squire. 1t is now asserted that he has is
sued orders to his confidential men to raise
a fund of $500 900 or more and ther to go
out and make mash bets. bluff and talk
loud about betting until the odds are on
Shepard. The squire has great faith in
betting and bluffing campaign argu-
ments This year he will be able to raise
a large betting fund in case he finds it
necessary to put up some real money for
effect.
