Force Of Iiuhtninc.

1t is hardly possible to use instru-
ments for the purpose of figuring the
forces of lightning, yet there are many
other ways of calculating familiar to
every mathematician. The amount
of light given by 4 single lightning
fash is enough to illuminate an area
Of two square miles. The bolt itself
would be visible several miles further
off. but the remotest part Of the re-
gion mentioned would have rs much
light as would be given by candle
quite enough to read by. To pre- >te
such a light it would be necessary to
expend $4,000 horsepower for s"''.
ond. These figures appear very la e.
but the time Is short. The fash Giis 1t
be for only one-thousandth of sec
ond, but the impression on the eye
would continue for q tenth Of So
ond anyway. Figured down to an
exact hour this amount of force would
mean only about four horsepower

repeated we'll known story in regard
to Stephen A. Douglas. closing with a
moral which aroused peculiar interest.
Douglas. as the narrative runs. was

She did not know the sleeper. but was
struck with compassion on seeing such
a splendidly intellectual face under
such conditions. and STOPPING down
laid her handkerchief over 1t to pro-
tect it from the flies. Douglas on
awakening found the handkerchief.
sought the owner and eventually mar
ried her. There was pause. and
then the professor added: Young la
dies, the moral Of this story is, have
your pocket handkerchief marked"
