How High Can n Balloon Riset

The altitude that may be attained
by a balloon depends, first, upon its
size; secondly, upon the filling Of gas,
and, thirdly. upon the weight being
carried. \ balloon of ordinary size,
1900 cubic feet, carrying the smallest
weight--that is. one person-when filed
with Illuminating gas may reach 20,t 10
feet, but when filed with hydrogen
27,OO0 feet. In order to ascend higher
we first of all need bigger balloon.
one may say it was happy chance
that the Royal Meteorological institute
of Berlin was provided with balloon
of the unusual dimensions Of 100000
cubic feet. The German emperor fur
nished $500 for making experiments
with it, and the Meteorological insti-
tute decided to make use of this op-
portunity for studying the highest re-
gions of atmosphere.-IIarper's Maga-

END OF GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
Los Angeles, CAL, Chosen as the Next
Place of Meeting.

New York, May e7.-The Presby
treian general assembly chose Los
Angeles as the place OF next meeting.
The Rev. Dr. David G. Wylie Of New
York offered a resolution providing
that collection for the Tract society
be taken in every Presbyterian church
during the coming year. The resolu-
tion was adopted.
Another resolution adopted called on
the Prosbyteries TO vote promptly on
creed revision.
BY unanimous vote the assembly de-
cided TO send fraternal greetingsto the
new Presbyterian church of Mexico.
organized last year. which adopted the
constitution of the general assembly
Of the Presbyterian church of the Unit.
ed States Of America. Five minutes
was also spent in prayer for the new
church.
Stated Clerk Or. Roberts read a list
containing the names of l2S Presby-
terian ministers who had died since
the last assembly. Dr. Roberts said
that on account of the death of the
stated clerk of the New York Presby-
terry that body had not sent any re-
port, and that therefore the death Of
Rev. Or. George d. Purves of the Fifth
Avenue Presbyterian church and of the
Rev. Dr. Birch Of the New York Pres
bytery had not been recorded.
DR.. Stevenson asked the Presbyter.
ians to do their best for New York,
where only s per cent of the population
are Evangelical Christians.
The minutes were then read, the
moderator pronounced the benediction,
the doxology was sung and the general
assembly was declared adjourned sine
die.
The moderator In declaring the ad-
journment referred to the unanimity
in the action taken by the general as

VAGARIEs OF THE TIDES.
Curious Currents In the Ocean and
Its OnShouts.


Its OnshOuts.
There are as many vagaries in the
waters as in the winds. Why, for in
stance, should three great ocean cur
rents send their warm waters across
the wide Pacific, Atlantic and around
the Cape of Good Hope? There have
been many theories advanced to solve
the problem of their origin but all
have proved fallacious. Other and
equally mysterious currents exist in
well nigh all parts Of the world. The
tides are so erratic IN different parts of
the world that one hesitates to accept
the theory that the moon controls them
in all cases.
1t is on record that the sea has run
for weeks out of the Java sea through
the strait of Sunda and thence back
again for like period without any per
ceptible rise or fall during those times.
Then there is the equatorial current
that flows into the Caribbean sea, the
ever flowing current to the eastward
around Cape Horn, the cold stream
north past Newfoundland and Nova
Scotia and along the American coast
to the extreme end of Florida, the con-
tinual current running with a velocity
of from four to five knots an hour
through the strait of Gibraltar into
the Mediterranean sea, the swift cur
rent running across the rocks and
shoals off the end of Billion island,
which apparently starts from nowhere
and ends somewhere in the vicinity of
the same place, and the current which,
starting half way up the China sea,
runs from two to three knots an hour
to the northeast and finally ends alb
ruptly off the north end of LuZon.
Then we have those tidal vagaries
known the world over as bores. Resi-
dents on Severn side are familiar with
them, and those that run up the HUI
eli and Irawaddy rivers from side
TO side in n zigZag shape till they reach
their limit, often tearing ships from
their anchorage, originate nobody
knows where or why The rush of wa

up to the head Of the bay till the waters
have risen TO the height Of fifty or six
ty feet off Southampton we have the
double tides, while at Singapore it has
been observed for days at a time that
there has been but the one rise and
fall in the twenty-fOur hours. The tides
may he and very often appear as
though they were ''mOOnstruck,' but
they certainly are not controlled with
hard and fast rules by that or any 9th

ABnd Way to Feed Birds.

1t is quite common practice for per-
sons owning pet birds to teach them to
take bits Of sugar or other food liked
by the bird from the lips. 1t has been
discovered that the trainers Of young
birds in Europe frequently contract in
this way peculiar parasitic growth on
the throat and lungs that is frequently
fatal, and Il warning has been issued
by French physicians which may well
be needed by any one feeding birds
from mouth to beak.
