The Speed Of a Base Ball.


The attempts now and then made to catch
base ball thrown from the Washington monu-
ment bring to the minds of the curious the
query as to the relative difficulty of catching
such a ball and batted "liner'' or good
pitchers swiftest delivery. The velocity OF
the ball dropped from the monument IS the
easy factor to determine. According to the
laws of acceleration, it would strike the ground
with velocity of about $50 feet per second.
On the other hand, it is strange that for
game where so many records are collected and
annually tabulated, swiftness of pitching IS
left SO largely for tradition to perpetuate. NO
reference book at our command gives the feet
travelled per second by the straight, swift ball
of Amos Rusie, Mathewson, or "Rube' Wad-
dell. But it is certainly an exceptionally swift
ball that travels the 60.5 feet between the
pitchers box and the plate in less than,
second. This would make the ball from the
monument about three times as swift as any
which the ordinary catcher has to face In
fast company" What is more, its impact
which is equal to that of a one-pound weight,
moving at about fifty feet per second, IS JUST
about half that with which the bullet from o
new pattern Springfield rifle strikes its target
AS to liners there are no data at all, but nc
one ever heard of batted ball bit to such
distance that three fielders would have to relay
it home, and this would seem to be neces
sary for it to equal that dropped from th'
monument.

Some Novel Building Features.


Two novel features in the construction of
buildings in Baltimore are the limestone spiral
stairway in the new Walters Art Gallery,
northwest corner of Charles and Center streets,
and the heating and ventilating system in the
new Maryland Institute building, northwest
corner of Mount Royal avenue and Lanvale
street. The stairway in the gallery is in the
northwest corner and extends from the first
floor to the third floor. 1t is Enclosed in cir
cular fireproof shaft and is lighted by long,
narrow turret slips.
The heating system in the Maryland lnsti-
tute consists of the customary plant for steam,
with heated air besides. The air is brought
from the outside, passed over heated coils and
then distributed through the building after
having been purified 1t will be drawn in by
means of large fan and down shaft 81 by

and will force not less than 10000 cubic feet of
air into the building each minute. The steam
heat will be used for heating the exterior walls

A NATIONAL bank that will do business every
one of the twenty-four hours of the day and
night is a project that is now being discussed
by Pittsburg capitalists and already steps have
been taken looking to its permanent organiza-
ton. The new institution will be the second
day.and-night bank in the United States, one
having been organized in New York city some
what over year ago. The advantage of
day-and-night bank in an industrial city the
size and importance of Pittsburg, where thous-
ands of people do not get an opportunity of
visiting a regular bank during the usual hours,
is pointed out.

North american says that on July 9th Tunis
Wanverdeak, a wealthy Scott county farmer
having saved two-year-old girl from fright
full death in runaway by using the telephone,
dropped on his knees today and fervently
thanked God for the wonderful invention.
Wanverdeak was about to leave for town. His

rying to the house he phoned to E. Klaaren,
one mile distant, to save his little girl. Klaaren
and his hired man stopped the team and lifted
the little girl from the carriage, frightened
but unhurt.

Sorry He Ever Left Maryland.

The supremacy of Maryland farm lands
over all others has been again established. &C.
cording to Secretary A. F. Trappe, of the State
immigration Bureau. An instance came to
his attention few days ago which, in his
opinion, fully establishes the fact. certain
farmer on the Eastern Shore became dissatis-
fed with his lot and sold his farm to go West.
The conditions there were not as rosy as pic
tured and a little later he came back to Mary
land and offered nearly $1,000 more than he
had received for his old farm, but his offer
was refused by the satisfied tenant. Secretary
Trappe learned that he had paid $1,000 for
farm adjoining the one he formerly owned
and is regretting to the extent of $1,000 loss
that he ever left Maryland.

Gus coal. The total coal output Of PennsyI-
vania for 1905 represents value at the mines
of about $3.50 &C 900 and at points of distribu.
ton of about $3.50, 900 900. The anthracite pro-
duction was rs, 647, 02O short tons and the btu
minous lis, 1861, 514 short tons. In producing

ducing its passenger rates. This is wise policy,
whatever may have prompted it. Low rates
induce more travel. 1t pays better to haul
full car at the lowest possible rate than one
quarter full at high rate. This is something
trolley lines should take notice Of Of course,
where travel is limited pretty high rate must
be maintained; but where travel can be in
creased by lower rate it should be chosen.
As a general rule, low passenger charges are
the most profitable.
