Subway Ventilation.

From the Electrical Review.
The report that the ventilation of the
subway is insufficient and the air there is
very poor in oxygen need cause no anxiety.
The method by which this has been de-
termned is questionable, and II Is probable
that the samples of air were taken too
soon after the subway was started to give
a fair test of what conditions will be when
they have settled down to normal. The fact
that a large difference was found in GER
tain of the samples of afr taken at different
points would seem to show that this is not
yet so.
1t will be an easy matter to have the
quality of air tested carefully, and should
It be found that the movement of trains
does not produce much ventilation as
was hoped, 1t will not be difficult to install
fans at proper points and thus rectify the
matter. 1t should be remembered that the
subway is an enclosed space, and hence,
like any occupied building, will contain,
under normal conditions. a smaller per-
centage Of oxygen than will the free air
outside. It should also be remembered that
carbon dioxide is not an active poison. but
is merely a neutral gas. Air which Is poor
in oxygen is not necessarily injurious. as
its fault lies merely in the lack Of de-
sirable quality.

1t was not a moment for introductions.
Ramsdell caught the figure from behind. 1t
swung around, and he got a swift, well-set
blow in the jaw for his pains and a curse

The struggle was blessed relief to the

Kiwi the Oldest of Birds.
rom the Chicago Chronicle.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
In New Zealand is found the kiwi, a
strange bird of the ostrich family. Os-
triches have two toes. but the extinct moas
had three toes, so also have the existing
emus, cassowaries and rheas or South
American ostriches.
The kiwi. however, differs from the other
struthious birds in having four toes Fur
Their, the kiwi can not be said to be quite
ostrichlike, for in size 1t is not larger than
an ordinary barnyard fowl. It has a small
head, with large and muscular neck and
a long. slender bill, with the distinguish
ing feature that the nostrils are placed
close to its tip. The legs are short, but
the muscles on the thighs are well devel-
oped and the feet are strong and powerful
and provided with sharp claws.
The kiwi Is bird devoid Of any external
trace Of wings, and there is no trace of
tail visible. while 1t is covered with long.
narrow. hairiike feathers. and on the fore
part of the head and sides OF the face are
struggling hairlike feelers.

as photographers has been marked By
phenomenal harmony and success
throughout. Messrs. HOMER and Clark
have always been closely Identified with
the art interests of the city, and the
high standard in which they lave con
Quoted their profession has made the
firm deservedly one of the Institutions to
which the people of Richmond refer with
pride. They have never found 1t neces-
sary to employ men or women to can-
vass tho city and sell tickets or resorted

photos. at moderate prices they are
kept busy all the year around. Both
gentlemen are artists In the true sense
of the word, and enthusiastic followers
of the new school of photography, which
has In late years been in favor with tho
cultured classes, and differentiates from
the old school In Its higher aim after
the artistic possibilities of the camera.
This work Is characterized by stronsrr,
broader effects. truer tonal values and
greater simplicity OF treatment. Another
matter In which HOMER and Clark can
be trusted is the permanency of their
work, whcih is certainly Of paramount
Importance. Their portraits are not or
