Tfa erM- nary pith ball suspended on silk thread is the simplest form of the h. strument.
 The most common type of electro scope is that devised by Bennett in 1TS7 and known as the gold leaf elec troscope It consists of two strips of gold leaf or thin aluminium foil sus- pended from the lower extremity of q conductor within a glass bottle CT jar. The upper end of the conductor ter fainatas in q ball or q plate in ease the instrument is to be used as I cpndenS- ing eleetroseope If a body charged with positive electricity iS brought near the knob ef the electroseoHe the nesa- tive electricity w:I De attracted ta the knob and tho positive repelled to the leaves. which diyergc. If now the fin ger is touched to the knob the positive electricity is drawn off and the leaves collapse, while the negative electricity is held bound, Removing the charged body. the leaves will diverge again, charged with negative electricity. In this case the instrument can be used to determine the nature of charge of

A STUDY IN FIGURES.
Calculations Necessary to Produce the
 Nautical Almanac.

Calculations Necessary to Produce the
 Nautical Almanac.
 II may safely be said that no one outside the publishing office has read the entire Nautical Almanac from be- ginning to end, but each figure of the printed almanac is in the office eX- ar1ined twice and rcad three times.
 The total number Of ti%ures exceeds 8 million; but. great as that number is, t is tfillin@ compared With the num- her of figures eu!ploycd in the caleala- tions. as the almanac tigures repre- sent s:bare" results only. The moon. for instance, requires fer it's caicu- idtion more than million and a half of f@ureS. and similarly with other branches of the work, such as the sun, the planets, etc. Contrary to the general opinion. practically every fig ure in the book is fresh from year to year.
 The tables from which nearly all the work Is calculated have been original iy constructed from the laboCs of tAs astronomical observer and to a larss q teat from the observations sf the s>sz. Hlne0 and planets made at tAs Esgsl shservasezy. GS>sawsh.

Seattle, June 10.-Christian Sands,
a former high school boy, who has a
commission as colonel in the Nicara-

mand of Estrada's body gaurd, has
written a letter to his father, telling
of the death of Captain Ross, Mil

the fortress LaCieba.
The insurgents position was shelled
by the enemy and Estrada's troops
made rear attack on the government
forces, with regiment of infantry

wrote, but we struck a snag for the

charged the hill three times, but were
Fepulsed with terrible loss"
1T is admitted to have been the
bloodiest battle of the war for the
small number of men engaged, only

of the enemys.
"Merchum Ross, was the hero Of the
battle. He led his company to the
