CHANGES IN THE COMPASS
Magnetic Influence Of Island Respon-
sible for Wrecking of Ocean
Steamer.

On the morning of June % last the
Danish steamer Norge struck the Island
of ROckall, to the west OF the Hebrides:
the ship broke up, and some 600 lives
were lost Apropos of this disaster,
says the LONDON Telegraph, Dr. August
krogh, of Copenhagen, asks the some-
what perturbing question: Can the
compasses OF modern ships be Influenced
by magnetic disturbances to such a de-
gree as to imperil navigation?"
According to her course, the Norge
should have been rs miles to the south OF
Rockall, and DR.. Krogh assumes that it
is impossible to account for the differ
ence between the ships real position and
that of the reckoning, without assuming
sudden and large change in the devia-
ton OF the compass. He forwards to
Nature dispositions made by two captains
in confederation of this view.
The first of these is by Capt. Hveysel,
of the steamer Carl, WHO states that on a
voyage from the United States to Dem
mark he found, by careful solar and
stellar observation, that in very short
time, when in the neighborhood of
Rockall both the compasses of the ship
had acquired hitherto unknown easier
ly deviation of 10 to II degrees. A faint
northern light was visible, and the cap
tain attributed to this cause the mag
netic disturbance. Toward midnie ht the
compasses were observed to return to
their normal DEVIATION"
The second evidence is that of Capt.
F. w. Horner, of the British ship Elixir
of West Hartlepool, who came into tho
vicinity of Rockall island on a voyage
from Florida to Linhamn, in Sweden.
He found that between noon, June "a,
and noon, June rs, the compasses had
deviated nine degrees. MASTERING"
he says, Ito pass 20 miles north of it."
In other words. if he had been on the
south side of the island his ship would
have suffered the same fate as the Norge.
Disturbances of the compass needle like
these are unk nown; and the peril they
involve would justify inquiry by tbs
governments of Britain and Denmark to
discover whether there exists something
about Rockall's seagirt pyramid to &C.
count for them.

cloth hat lightened> by crown and
piping Of velvet, trimmed as simply as
possible. Then small. compact, and
useful are the eighteenth century riding
hats, Of lightest felt or beaver, adorned
with ruchings Of chiffon velours and q
bunch OF cog feathers at the side or a
waving paradis plume. Tiny three
cornered captoes are being worn in Paris
made Of cloth and velvet, simply
trimmed with satin or MORE rosettes.
very smart are those Of the ''tricorne"
shape In felt, with q band of gold or
silver braid. Here too, are the old
chenille plaits used. sometimes adorned
with tiny ribbon ruches which play an
important part in the decoration of more
picturesque hats.
Entire bats of shaded chenille are
trimmed with thick ruches of stiff, COL
ored ribbons, coming high up on to the
rather fat crown. Taking it all round.
l should say that crowns are mostly
high, though fat ones are also seen;
the latter are often heightened by the
arrangement Of the bows, loops of VEL
vet, and feathers The trimming is
brought from the back to the front,
giving the desired height to the face.
A beautiful model in claret-colored
felt, shaped like wide Directoire bon
net, had shaded velvet ribbon bows on
the crown, at the side of which were
two plumes, arranged so that the tips fell
softly over the brim in front.
Curious buckles of tortoise she'll,
paste, copper, gun metal and enamels
are used; in fact. all kinds Of ornaments
may find a place on suitable headgear,
and most fantastic hat pins are seen.
Chrysanthemums made of enamel are
very pretty and effective in autumnal
colorings for hat pins.
How popular are the dead shades in
SIX and velvet roses. and wine color is
certainly revived again.
There are some rather attractive it,
tie models of the beef-eater type, small
and compact, and trimmed only with
shaded roses or plumes at the side. AS
is usual, the trimmings of the best hats
are simple, while the shapes themselves
are very fantastic. with the exception
OF the bold Directoire and Gainsborough
lines, which ever hold their own with ex-
elusive milliners and their clients.

ENCRAVER OF DIAMONDS.
Paris Jewc.er Uses Secret Tools in
His Work on the Precious
Stones

Diamonds can be engraved in very
artistic manner. This development of
the diamond cutting art brings into ex-
lstence a new class of jewelry, for which
considerable demand is expected, says
IN eastern exchange. 1t was long be-
Aeved that the diamond could not be en-
graved with safe or satisfactory re-
suits. A few stones roughly engraved
were found In India, and diamond was
exhibited at the Paris exposition in 1878
on which a portrait of the king of Hol-
land was scratched. But the work was
imperfect and the stones were rather de-
polished than engraved.
Some of the finest specimens of en-
craving on diamonds are the work of M.
Bordlnet, a Paris jeweler: One is scarf
pin representing yataghan, of which
the blade is slender diamond and the
handle ruby. Another is a large cir
GUAR stone on which paEsy with it's
1Ollage Is engraved. In another case the
design is knife made with two dia.
monds. An elaborate piece of work is a
bicycle OF which the wheels are two cir
cular diamonds. The spokes are repre-
scented by lines engraved on the dia-
monds. A small hole is pierced at each
axle. Another diamond is carved like a
hsh. A handsome brooch is a scara-
Daeus. surrounded by sapphires and bril-
liants.
Inc most remarkable is d ring made of
one diamond, the interior surface being
polished and the exterior deliberately en-
graved. Other examples are brooches.
representing flies, of which the wings are
thin engraved diamonds, and two dia-
monds engraved with armorial bearings,
the imperial arms of Russia being used
In one instance on shirt and cuff butt
tons.
Formerly it was only possible to pro-
duce the polish on fiat surfaces. but M
Bord1net has been able to do this on con-
cave PORTIONS as on the body and tail of
nsh and the interior of the ring. His
tools produce not only straight lines, as

sell, anu intends that his son alone shall
nave the use of them. They are exceed
lngly delicate and difficult to handle. He
has spent IS years bringing them to per-
lection. 1t is comparatively but few
years since was possible to pierce holes
IN diamonds. This feat made possible
the placing of diamonds on string, al
ternating with pearls. This work now is
| done generally in diamond emitting es-
adjustments.

In August and September the rocks
abound with great patches of rasp-
berries, blackberries, dewberries and
biueberries, while the autumn season
brings with it such vast quantities OF
cranbercies as no cultivated marshes
Lave ever known. Around three sides
of Mud lake are marshes that are fair
~ burdened with cranberries, the lus-
cious red fruit in its setting of Pc
culiar green leaves being worthy the
brush of master painter. And
through these marshes the deer run
ways lead to the water. Here the ami
mails find both food and drink, and to
them also come the sportsmen to add
death to the list. How often have l

senate and two from the house. These
tellers announce the ballots and make
a list of such votes until all have been
disposed OF. All the votes having been

dent OF the senate, who thereupon an
nounces the state Of the vote, which

dent Of the United States.
Should there be a tie vote, as has
occurred twice in the history of the
house, and that body is intrusted with
the duty of electing president and
vice president. It must make it's Sc
lection from the three highest on the
list of those voted for as president. The
vote must be taken by states, each
state having one vote. A quorum for
this purpose must consist of mem
Der or members from majority Of
the states, and majority vote of all
the states is necessary to choice.
Jefferson was elected to his first term
in this way and Adams election was
also decided in the house. me singu-
lar feature of that national campaign
was the election of Calhoun for vice
president by large majority, while
there was no choice for president
The Hayes-Tilden contest in 1876,
while it did not throw the election into
the house, was one of the most sensa-
tional and critical episodes in the po-
litical history of our country. The final
result hinged upon the returns from
Florida, Louisiana and South Carolina.
On the morning after the election the
newspapers of all parties announced
the election of Tilden, but murmur
of the coming storm came at the same
time when the national committee Of
the republican party announced the
election of Hayes.
An electoral commission was ap-
pointed by special act of congress as
q tribunal of last resort. to determine
the disputed election. This was finally
done in favor of the Hayes electors.
and he was declared elected. The very
close battle between Garfield and Han
cock four years later. and the Cleve-
land-Blaine struggle of 1884 that
turned upon LOO majority in a vote Of
nearly 100000 in New York state.
demonstrated the necessity of having
some definite statute providing for the
determination of disputed electoral
votes in the states, by which such dis
putes would be practically eliminated
from the powers of congress. This
necessity bore fruit in the law which
was enacted in 1887, and which is
known as the electoral count law"
1t provides that tribunal appointed in
and by each state shall determine what
electoral votes from the state are legal,
and If the Estate has appointed no such
tribunal, the two houses of congress
shall determine which votes Tin case Of
