Power From Tides.

From the Dayton News.
Periodically. it seems, comes the re-
port that some one has discovered a
method of obtaining power from the
tides. or Harvesting the tides. as 1T
is generally expressed, and generating
electricity from the power. But time
goes on and no great advance is made
in such plan. until we have come to
look with suspicion upon any PROPOSE
ton that has for its purpose the OBJ
tanning of power from old ocean
rise and fall
The latest report" comes from the
regions of the North sea. 1t is claimed
that a fellow named Pein actually
solved that problem and that in the
near future he will begin furnishing
electricity to cities and towns in that
part of the world. The details of his
system are not given, but it Is alleged
that he will be able to secure power
at all times-while the tides are ebb-
/ ing and flowing.
The report comes under the head
! important if true In fact. If some
method of utilizing this tidal force
should be adopted. there would be no
occasion for any other power in the
world. For the tides could furnish
enough power to move all of the wheels
/ of the world and then have plenty to
| spare for shooting electric currents
| toward the moon.

New York as a Seaport.

fI''ii Harper weekly
New York does three-quarters of the
port business Of the United States, even
under the 1onG-standing handicap of
the "3-cent differential'-ihe extra 3
cents per hundredweight imposed upon
New York city freight rates by all
railroads. This, OF course diverts a
great deal of traffic To Boston and
Philadelphia. which is expected to re-
turn TO New York if the differential
shall be removed, seems not improb-
able. Nevertheless, the metropolis is
still by far the greatest port of the
country, thanks TO its natural advan-
tages, i'm spite of slothful neglect of
those advantages and Il blind adher-
encc to muSty old methods. The smoke
OF the one thousand-f foot Steamship is

Eyesight of Mice and Snails.

From the Chicago Tribune.
How much does a mouse see? To look
at mouse, one would think that sight
counted. for great deal in it's life, but
experiments go to show that this is only
true within certain limits. Mice are good
at distinguishing different degrees of illu-
mination and different colors (preferring
red and yellow to blue and green), and
they are quick to detect movements; but
they have little sense of form and little
binocular vision.
Does a snail see? Field observations
suggest that the animal avoids the light.
Laboratory experiments. on the other
hand, suggest that it prefers the light.
Prof. Emile Yung of Geneva has rein
.vestigated the question, and finds that
both these conclusions are wrong. He
made over 1900 observations on 1I6 snails
and found that they We're quite indiffer-
ent to all sorts of light stimulus. that
they do not prefer lighted or shaded
areas. that they do not see obstacles in
front of them, and that their eyes have
no visual significance.
