DUST IN ENGLAND.

African Lands frequently Carried Long
Distances by Air Currents.
In the course of a paper on ''The
Cornish Dustfall of January, 1902"
read before the Royal Meteorologi-
cal society, at 70 Victoria street, re-
Gently, MI. III. r. Mill said that since
the Krakatoa eruption in 1883, when
the volcanic dust thrown into the air
made itself apparent for many
months all over the world in a long
series Of brilliant sunsets, the most
remarkable instance of fsr-traveled
dust was that which occurred in
March, 1901, says the London Tele-
graph. In Italy the rain fell so thick
ly charged with red sand that the
peasants took ii for bloodand became
panic-stricken. For three days the
dust cloud travelled northward over
central Europe, substantial traces
falling so far north as the Danish is
lands, and instances in which It
reached parts Of England and Scot
land had been recorded. A large
quantity Of similar dust fell about
January 81, last, in Cornwall over
an area Of 1000 square miles, and
the conclusion seemed to be that
about this time the atmosphere over
the extreme west Of Europe consisted
Of air which had come from the Afri-
can deserts, carrying with it a guam
tity of fine dust, Of which a mere
vestige-some 100000 tons or So
had been caught in its fall and carried
to the shores Of the channel. There
seemed to be little doubt that the
farmers Of the west of England had
this spring plowed many tons Of the
sand Of the Sahara into their fur
rows.

Vessel Engineer Gave Inem a Diet OF
White-Hot Bricks.
e"The waters around Martinique axe
usually swarming with sharks, said
old Skipper Perry, a retired sea
captain. They have the reputation
Of being man-eaters, which makes
bathing a dangerous as well as an
exciting sport. | shall never forget
how, on one Of my visits to the is
land, the engineer effectually got rid
Of the monsters. He took a lot of
bricks, heated them to a white heat,
took them down in the freroom, and
then poured oil over them. Then he
quickly got them on deck, and, with
the aid Of a pair Of tongs, he threw
them overheard one BY one. The
first one had scarcely struck the top
Of the water before a hungry shark
swallowed it whole. The ~scorching
brick inside naturally made him feel
as though there was a volcanolin his
stomach, and he started to do all
sorts Of crazy stunts before disap-
pearing in deep water Each one Of
the hot bricks was swallowed by a
shark, and in a few minutes there
wasn't one to be seen. -PhiladeN

Obstacles That Engineers Have to Over
eome-Ths Hirhsst Road.

eome-Ths Highest Road.
As the iron track is bound 10 force
its way into most corners Of the
world, it is not surprising, says the
London Globe, that some lines of trail
way exist which are striking evidence
Of q Singularly bold conception car
RED out in the face Of obstacles which
seemed almost unsurmountable.
Sometimes the route Of the future
line lies across a desert; then the
great law Of the Compensation Of
nature seems to make itself felt,
for to balance the saving Of time and
money due to the fact that long tun-
nels will not have to be cut through
hills or mountains the engineers are
confronted by the total absence of
three essential elements of construc-
ton, namely, wood, iron and water,
which have to be transported along
the newly-made line as it stretches its
slow length across the desert. Rus
sia's Trans Caspian railway, now
known as the Central Asian railway,
was built under these conditions;
thousands of logs Of timber were
needed and the region traversed can
not boast Of a single tree for more
than 700 miles. This timber was re-
CURED for building the long bridge,
two miles in length, over the river
Amu-Darya. This bridge was al
ways the weak point IN this highly
important railway, and it has been
replaced recently by a stone bridge.
Between Merv and Charjui the line
had to be carried over shifting sands
GA feet deep. When the work is be-
ing carried out in such regions the
trains become a little town on wheels.
They are composed of tw~o-storied
wagons, which contain sleeping ac-
commodation, butchers stalls, can
teens, grocers' stores and forges. As
the Trans-Siberian railway grew in
length it was resolved blythe authori-
ties that the workmen should have
their own Church car" A wagon
was fitted up accordingly as church,
with a little peal Of bells in the alcove
sbSye the entrance.
The romance Of mountain railways
by no means ends with their construe-
ton, and travelling upon railways
at a very high altitude is not a thing
to be desired. The Peruvian line.
running from Callao to 0roya, ha:
a twofold claim to distinction; it il
built at probably the greatest alti.
tude of any existing railway, namely
1898 feet above sea level, and il
affords travellers certainly the mos
unpleasant experience de voyage
that can be imagined. As the result
of travelling at such an altitude thu
passengers begin by feeling great OPP
preston, accompanied by pains in The
head and limbs; these are quickly fol
lowed by bleeding from the nose ant
mouth, and then by momentary
blindness. 1t is gratifying to know
that there is a certain variety in tn,
effects produced upon passengers a
this point. Thus, while some per
sons are seized with giddiness, other
entertain strange Authorizations anC
others faint away; the last class be
come SO weak that any undue exertiol
on their part often proves fatal. Blu
this is not all that one has tounderg,
