age residence and the like, he then pro-
Cceded:

Friction Caused Ere.

Il hope there will be no friction" said
Representative WadSworth to Repre-
sentative Sherman the other day.
Friction said Sherman did you
ever hear of the farmer up in the Mo-
hawk valley whose barn burned down
and who could not collect from the in
surance company"
Il come from the Gcncsec Valley,
where such things do not happen said
Wadsworth, gravcly.
Huh !! retorted Sherman. I'll tell it,
anyway. The farmer went to the office
OF the insurance company and demanded
his money
Nothing doing, said the manager.
. The fire was caused by friction, and fric-
ton doesn't go
Friction; expostulatcd the farmer,
No such thing
"'Oh. yes, and the manager smiled

In the absence of oxygen. the higher
plants are found by y. Nabokich to
continue their growth, and they are
still sensitive to irritations. but they
do not form chlorophyl. 1t is believed
that some seeds should gcrminate with
out oxygen, but the spores OF fungi APP
pear unable to do so.
G. Trouve. of Paris. has invented an
apparatus by means of which dry OBJ
jectS, such as rice grains, glass and
celluloid balls. etc. are thrown several
feet high into the air and simultaneous
ly lighted by various colors of electric
light. Instead of water compressed
air is used. The effect attained is said
TO be wonderful.
The two famous travellers Lortct
and Gaillard recently delivered an adj
dress on the above subject before the
French Academy Of Science. They had
collected over 1000 mummics of birds
in Egypt most of which were vul.
lures. eagles. falcons. sparrow hawks
ard ibis. In conclusion the explorers
stated that the fauna OF ancient Egypt
did not differ much from that OF the
modern land of the Nile.
According to Professor McKendrick,
Of the British Association. the smallest
particle of matter that can be seen
with our present microscope is about
100000 Of an inch in diameter. The
attraction Of light in the microscope,
me says, prevents us from seeing small
cr objects. And yet Gle living spores
studied by Psychologists are some
times, probably, even smaller than the
most perfect microscope can show.
From close investigation of the So
lar records of the period 1S33-19OO
DR.. w. J. S. Lockyer concludes that
there is an alternate increase and de-
crease in the length of sun spot pc
Rod reckoning from minimum to mini
mum. The epoch of maximum varies
regularly with respect to the proceed
ing minimum, the amplitude of varia-
ton being about eight-teuths OF year
plus and minus and the cycle being
about thirty five years. The total
spotted area varies regularly in Il cycle
Of about thirty-fvc years. Climate
variations, frequency of aurOras and
magnetic storms are, he concludes, i'm
general accordance with the thirty
tive-year period and there is no indi-
cation of 1ifty-fve year cycle.
y new fibre, known as aramina, has
recently been discovered 10y DR.. Silva
Tclles,of the Polytechnic School of Sac
Paulo. 1t is obtained from variety
of plants known in Brazil as carrapi-
chOs. 1t is almost white in color. very
fine and flexible, and is from two to
three yards in length. 1t has an almost
metallic lustre and wonderful heXibil-
lily. The plant is strong and vigorous,
and no special care is required in its
cultivation, being adapted to unculu-
waited lands. 1t grows wild through
out the entire western part of the State
of Sac Paulo, and is being cultivated
on large scale on the plantations in
the vicinity of Campinas. Articles
made of this fibre include cords.
twines, ropes and canvass suitable for
coffee bags.

ONE STEP TOWARD ECONOMY
SENATE PASSES BILL ALLOWING RE
DUCTION OF CITY SALARIES.
IBr TELEGRAPH TO The rnrprxr.I


Albany March 2O.-Mayor Lows bill 10 an
thorize the Board OF Estimate and Apportion
ment TO fix the salaries Of the employees Of the
city Of New-Yorl1, which was introduced In the
Senate by Mr.. Stranahan, was passed by that
body to-day by vote Of "a to IL 1t was a part,-
vote. all the Republicans voting for the bill and
all the Democrats against II. The unanimous
vote of the Republican Senators indicates that
II has been made party measure and there
fore will be passed by the Assembly.
Senator McCarren said that Mayor Tovy had
declared on the stump that he would reduce
the salaries of New-York officials by 81 600 900
He found this to be impossible and was looking
about for some pretence for fulfilling his prom
ises. The bill practically abolished the Civil
Service regulations of the city.
Senator Stranahan denied that the Civil Sar
vice regulations We're abolished The constitu-
tion forbade such an act. The bill simply dealt
with the compensation of officers and not wifi,
their classification He concluded:
believe that Mayor Low should be sustained
I'm his policy OF economy and reform. and | hope
this bill will be passed The Republican partv
got into the fusion boat last fall and il never
did more creditable thing, and Mayor Low has
done nothing to make any Republican regret
that he voted for him. He should be ena hled
by the Republican party to carry out his pledges
He is not a sham refOrmer. and 7 conCede that
he is a magnificent representative Of civic
honesty. and is possessed of a high minded de-
sire TO serve the people.
Senator Fuller, Republican, offered an amend
ment eXempting veterans of the Civil War from
the provisions of the act. Senator Stranaban
said that injustice would be done the vet
Grams, that this matter had already been looked
into and the interests of the veterans were
guarded The amendment was then rejected
Senators Donnelly and Grady attacked the bill
as one which was intended simply to turn Dem
oCrats out of office
You speak Of this being temporary act"
said Senator Grady. "and say that the Board of
Estimate and Apportonment win act only until
May l. Why. If the salaries are once reduced
the Board of Aldermen cannot advance them"
