Eye Photo Proves Murder.

Professor Martini of the University
Of Rome recently brought to justice a
murderer named Casale at Perouse by
discovering in one of his eyes the pro-
file of the victim. This he photographed
through his opthalmoscope. Upon see
ing it the murderer confessed, saying
that ever since he had committed the
deed he had seen constantly the face
of his victim as a phantom. The face
-on the retina continued to be visible for
fifty-two hours, after which it faded
away.
Earthquake Admits Pacific.
All attempts to stem the rising tide of
water in the new Salton sea, which
skirts the main lines Of the Southern
Pacific for nearly 100 miles, stretching
away to the foothills on either side for
twenty-five miles, have now ceased,
after ten months of effort and the ex
penditure of 100000. 1t is generally
believed that the earthquake shocks Of
last May and June opened subterra-
mean assures under the divide between
the old Salton basin and the gulf
Of California, thus forcing the new
Salton sea to ocean level. A half inch
daily rise for three months is expected
to completely fill the old basin, and
settlers are preparing for the inevitable.
A New Sort of Flying Machine.
What the Scientific American regards
as "a considerable step in advance" in
aerial navigation is an experimental
aeroplane actually able to lift itself
into the air from a position of rest
which has recently been constructed in
Paris for Henri and Armand Dugaux,
two young engineers of Geneva, Swift
zerland The machine Is operated by.
propellers driven by a gasoline motor
and will carry dead weight Of fifteen
and cne-half pounds besides it's own
weight, which is thirty eight and one-half
pounds. The motor is made as light as
possible. the valves, rods, shafts, ETC.,
being hollow 1t weighs only little
over ten pounds, including the gasoline
tank, fly wheel and all the working
parts. 1t has an output Of three and
one-tenth horsepower. This machine is
designed to serve as the lifting power
of a complete airship.

THE OUTLOOK.

There is at present noticeable
labor and the outlook of year OF
peace, as far as can be seen on the
surface, is primising. In some d.
rections, undoubtedly, legislative &C
ton in aid of unionized labor is anti
cipated, but it is doubtful if the posi-
ton of those who favor the CLOSED
shop" the boycott" and dynamite
can be materially strengthened in that
manner. In times Of industrial peace,
such as now prevails almost univer-
sally throughout the country, the bene-
fits derived from such a state Of af-
fairs are clearly apparent and in
strong contrast with the deplorable
condition existing during the summer
of 1904, when workmen and operators
alike were arrayed against each other.
