There is to be a change in the manner
of operation at Cascade tunnel, on the
Great Northern. The principal altera-
ton will be the substitution of cleo
tricity for steam as motive power. Their
will be no more heavy trains hauled
through the tunnel on the up grade. the
eastern end of the tunnel being 235 feet
higher than the western end. A lower
rate of tonnage has been fixed as a
maximum for trains passing through the
big hole. and trains hereafter win make
one-fifth better time in the tunnel than
is made on other parts of the line.
One plan for Kidding the tunnel of poi
sOnous gases is the placing of immense
fans in the eastern end. These fans
would have sufficient strength, it is
claimed, to carry the smoke of an ad-
vancing locomotive ahead of it, byf the

Strength OF a Mules Tall.

at work lassoing cattle always fas-

their horses tail instead of to q
ring In the saddle until he saw an
accident on q mountain path.
A team Of mules passed his party.
These mules were tied, the head Of
one to the tail of that in front, and
SO on, andSas Mr.. Howard Saunders
passed one Of the mules Kicked out
viciously, missed its footing and
went over the precipice. There it
hung, scrambling in the vain en-
deavor to get q footing, while the
mules to which it was fastened,
stood like rocks on the path above
till the men succeeded in passing 8
lasso round the hanging beast and
drawing it up. The tail was cut to
the bone. but the mule was other
wise unhurt. The incident shows
the remarkable strength Of the
equine tail.

shark sklns. and Shark FIns.

In all the equatorial islands Of
the north and south Pacific shark
fishing is a very profitable industry
to the natives, and every trading
steamer and sailing vessel coming
into the port of Sydney or Auckland
from the islands Of the mid-Pacifc
brings some tons Of fins, tails and
skins Of sharks. The principal mar
kets for the former are Hongkong
and Singapore, but the Chinese
merchants ossthe Australasian colo
nies will always buy sharks fins
and tails at from six to eleven
pence per pound, the fins. bringing
the best price on account of the
larger amount Of glutinous matter
they contain, for which they are
highly relished by the richer class Of
Chinese as a delicacy. The tails are
also appreciated as an article Of
food n China, and, apart from their
edible qualities, they have further
value as a base for clear varnishee,
etc.

Defeated by Nature.

Nutmegs grow on little trees
which look like small pear trees and
which are generally not over twenty
feet high. The flowers are very
much like the lily Of the valley.
They are pale and very fragrant.
The nutmeg is the seed of the fruit.
and mace issthe thin covering over
the seed. The fruit is about the
size Of o peach. When ripe, it
breaks open and show3 a little nut
inside. The trees grow on the
islands of Asia and tropical Amer
lea. They bear fruit seventy OF
eighty years, having ripe fruit on
them all the season. A fine tree in
Jamaica has more than 1000 nut
megs on it every year.

sssyeR at Great Heights There 10 Con.
adorable Moisture. q
It is seldom realized save by
aeronaats and mountaineers, how
mackWatery haze thelower air con-
taiDs. Blue sky itself is but the
Ultimate fading out Of haze, and
when whole lower layers Of the. at
mosphere are snrmounted the blue
above is bluer than before only by
reason of the haze there being more
attenuated. The result Of investi-
gations carried out chiefly by high.
flying kites goes to show that,
though at great heights the air may
be spoken Of as dry, this is but a
relative term. Commonly about
one half of the water vapor in the
air is left below by the time the
first mile and a half is climbed, but
the actual moisture present varies
with circumstances, Thus up to a
few thousand feet the air is drier
during winter and at night and
damper during summer and by day
than it is near the ground.
In the light Of these facts it be-
comes easy to conceive how in GER
tain conditions Of moist weather
and on dark night the light of O
large town reflected in the heaven
may DE seen even at long distance.
Under the clear skies of other lands
reflection may be seen on the under
surfacepf q cloud over; great ranges.
Thus the cloud heaps over thunder
storms on the American prairies
may sometimes be seen at night on
the horizon at a distance amounting
to some 200 miles.
& Again, it will be easy to grasp
the further fact that haze in the air
is more clearly manifested to the
observer who, whether in balloon
or on q mountain side, has climbed
above its lower moister levels. Here
the explanation is simply that from
his new point Of view the haze is
seen against the dark earth while
being itself illuminated by the light
from the sky above. Gentleman's

Coal, pannll,, and prx,.

IF a load of coal is left out Of
doors, exposed to- the weather, say,
for month, it loses one-third Of
its heating quantities. If a ton Of
coal is placed on the ground and left
there and another ton is placed
Mnder a'shed, the latter loses about
25 per cent Of its heating force, the
former about 47.sper cent. Hence
it is great sayin Of coal to have
it in dry place, covered over on all.

heating power it loses, because the

music:
During his sojourn in London
Joachim formed q close friendship
with Lord R., a gentleman much
sought after by society, but we'll
known for his antipathy to all
music. Having learned that Joa-
chin was to give a series of concerts
at St. James hall, Lord R. announc-
ed to him that he would go to hear
him play.
The musician thanked him for
this mark of sympathy and added
that he would be. charmed to know
the impressions Of the noble lord
afterward.
Two. days afterward chance
brought together the two friends at
an evening entertainment. The
virtuoso did not fail to ask Lord R.
what he thought of the Works of
Beethoven and if the concert had
not been little long for him.
"By no means," replied Lord R.
II have been much amused. / did

A chilly silence prevailed among
the guests until Lord r. explained
his meaning.
It seems that Lord r. had made
mistake in the floor. Instead of
mounting to the first floor, where
Joachim was giving his concert, he
had entered .,at the grounl. floor,
where some negro minstrels. were
giving performance.
