It is hardly possible to use ingtru- 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 single lightning flash is enough to illuminate an area of two square miles. The bolt itself would be visible several miles further of, but the Temotest part of the re- zion mentioned would have as much light as would be given fv. a candle quite enough to read by. To produce such 8 light it would be necessary to expend 1S,000 horsepower for a sec ond. These hgures appear very large. but the time is short. The flash might be for only one-tbousandth of q sec ond, but the impression on the eye would continue for a tenth Of q sec ond anyway. Figured down to an exact hour this amount of force would mean only about four horsepower.- Electric News Bulletin.

Nasurs.s Monument ,D Vashinston.

NaeuP0rS Monument tD Washington.
 Among the many monuments to Washington is the one which every visitor to the Cape Verde islands will remember as one of the most colossal and marvellous fre@Zzs of natural sculp- ture in existence. Along the farther side of the harbor of San Vicente, the principal town, rises a bold ridge of dark gray volcanic rocks, the crest Of which forms an exact likeness of our immortal George, seemingly lying face upward, as if in a peaceful sleep. The hero's large, bold features, the back ward wave of the hair, his massive shoulders and even the friu of the shirt front are all reproduced on a gigantic scale with wonderful exactneE. The strange monument, sharply outlined against the deep blue Of the tropical sky, is one of. the first objeoks that meet one's eye in approaching the is-. land. Its gigantic proportions. with the boundless ocean for a background form portrait wonderfully true to na- ture and overpowering in its magnia- cence.
