reaches the other side of the ocean, that
all of them wear hats, and pretty ones
except perhaps an occasional beggar
or foreigner with shawl upon her
head, who is selling crocheted laces
from a basket. Another fact to be re-
membered is that our American police
men walk one by one, while in Italy
they will be found always marching
about in twos. The skyscrapers are of
course distinctive feature. There Is
not anything like them in Europe, one
group covering the most valuable ten.
ace lot in the world.
The Initial prospect of the steamer
that Is to give the tourist his first run
from home Is not particularly attrac-
tive. The great ship does not look en-
ticing in the docks. The sailors make
a great task of cleaning 1t up after
coallng, and everything Is in confusion
over the handling of freight and bag
gage. The place Is noisy, too, and the
staterooms are close and musty, redolent
of odors Of the wharf. The best friend
to make at starting Is the deck steward,
who Is always pleased to advise the
inexperienced traveller where he will
most enjoy sitting on deck during the
voyage. This is the more important,
because ones first choice OF place
will hold throughout the trip at sea.
The great hour comes when the steam
er leaves its wharf, and the tourist re-
allies that he Is off for Europe. The
crowds on the docks below wave their
hats, handkerchlefs and parasols in
adieu, and the big ship moves slowly
away from American shores. In many
instances the tourist is fulfilling the
cherished dream of years, and, al
though 1t involves partlngs and heart
aches and personal separations, it
means strong and striking beginning
of entirely new things. But anxiety,
nervousness and impatience gradually
wear off, and all eyes turn from the

uses for IT.; for Instance, that 1t will
act as most delicate coherer for wire
less telegraphy and will promote the
study Of nature and possibly of the
movements Of the molecules of mat
ter.
DR.. Shaw Is still improving his ap-
paratus In the hope Of measuring uuan-
titles still more minute. The general
principle Of the method Is electric
touch. This explanation Is given: IF
two surfaces, clean and polished, come
in contact the current can at once be
made to pass through them and excite
a telephone or other sensitive recorder
Previously, 1t has been impossible to
measure the sparkling gap Of an cleo
tric current Of less than thirty y-eight
volts, but with DR.. Shaws apparatus
a sparkling gap Of half volt can be
measured II physicists desire to un-
derstand and explain natures happen
ings 1t Is imperative that there should
be exact measurements Of very small
lengths, and of extremely minute ar
tlcles. Seeing that nature deals In
such small quantities 1t is useless TO
attempt to unravel her secrets with
out the finest instruments"

MINUTE MEASUREMENTS.
Apparatus that Measures One-sev-
enty-MiIliOnth of an Inch.

DR.. p Il. Shaw, Of the University
college, Nottingham, England, after
five years labor, has completed an ap-
paratus making it possible to measure
One-seventy milliOnth part Of an inch,
says the New York Post Consul Ma
hin writes that the invention consists
of very fine micrOmeter screw and
series of six levers acting In con-
junction with 1t which must be sus-
pended by rubber bands from n spe-
box. The frame is placed in n vault
under the university and surrounded
with every safeguard against friction
and vibration, but even then," says
DIR. Shaw, ut Is impossible to carry
out experiments to be successful while
there Is traffic in the streets. Every
factory, too, where motive power Is EN-
ployed must be closed, even II 1t is
some distance away" Even a draft is
sald to be fatal to the successful meas
urement Of such minute quantities as
one-seventy- -mlllionth part Of an inch.
Dust must also be kept from the vault,
and 1t is said that even the buzzlng
Of an ordinary fly has made 1t neces-
sary to suspend experiments till the
insect had been disposed of.
The apparatus, 1t Is claimed, could
be made specially serviceable in meas
rring engineering gauges. 1t is broad
ly asserted that all scientists recognize
that DR.. Shaw has succeeded in sur
rassing every other form Of measure
ment on gauges In delicacy and accur-

jagged skyline of New York. and look
toward Europe.
The steamer passes beneath Bar
tholdi's statue of Liberty, the copper
bronze of which shines brightly in the
sunlight, and then skirts Governors
Island, with Its old military museum.
This was put into practical use seven
years ago, when war stared US in the
face. Within ten days the tourist may
look upon the coast lines Of our Span
lsh enemies of that recent, though now
rarely thought of hour. The enomous
steamship puts out to sea, proud
Titan Of the deep. 1t Is ia: cry from
Robert Fulton's steamboat o. 1907,
wherein he made a Hudson river trip
Of 40 miles In twenty-four hours, to
the amazement of every one " no heard
of the exploit. 1t Is reassuring to con-
slider that specialization of ocean indus
try has mlnimlzed the perlls Of sea
travel, especially with the improvement
Of submarine signals and perfection of
wireless telegraphy. To-day II is less
hazardous to cross the Atlantic in an
up-to-date steamship than it Is to cross
the American continent by rail.
The usual seasickness, sharp look
out for lcebergs, the routine of the three
great events on shlpboard, breakfast,
luncheon and dinner, guessing on the
days run-all these lead up finally to
the first sight of new land off St Mi
chaels, Of the Azores. Gray masses
of rock seem to rise out of the sea,
but as the haze lifts the indefinite mass
resolves itself into outlines OF villages,
fruitful lands, marked out by hedges,
wlndmills, solitary houses, gray cliffs.
All about are little fishing boats man
ned by Portuguese fishermen from the
islands. Puenta Delgada Is the most
noticeable Of the towns, being Spanish
In appearance, and Its old houses Of
stone and colored plaster have taken ON
exquisitely mellowed tints.
The next land Is Cadlz, "the white
city Of Spaln." which rises out of the

first 1t Is like a low-lying cloud, grad
ually pierced by towers and domes, and
then the entire beautiful prospect. Not
far from this city Is Palos, whence Co
lumbus sailed for the unknown west,
and Huelva, where the great statue to
the dlscoverer Of America stands. Be
hind them. futher inland, are the SNOW
topped Sierras.
The tourist looks. back towards his
native land with the feeling that it Is
very far away, Indeed. He has crossed
the broad Atlantic, and just ahead are
the straits Of Gibraltar and the Medl-
terranean, giving nearer glimpse of
the actual castles in Spain.

CHAPTER XIV.

The Pretty Mary-as ugly and evil
smelling a tub as ever pitched under a
southerly burster-had been lying on
and off Cape Surville for nearly three
weeks. Captain Blunt was getting
wearied. He made strenuous efforts to
find the oyster beds of which he was os-
tensibly in search, but no success attend
ed his efforts. In vailn did he take boat.
and pull into every cove and nook be-
tween the Hoppolyte Reef and Scouten
Island. In vain did he run Pretty Mary
as near to the rugged cliffs as he dared
to take her, and make perpetual expedi-
tions to the shore. In vain did he-in
his eagerness for the interests of Mrs.
Purfoy-clamber up the rocks, and
spend hours In solitary soundings in
Blackman's Bay. He never found an
oyster. "If l don't find something in
three or four days MORE" said he to his
mate, IL shall 90 back again. It's too
dangerous cruising here"
