DISPUTED, BUT KEPT TEMPER
How General WoIseley and War Cor

Quarrel in the Newspapers.

One or two of the notices Of Lord
Wolseley's career mention the pro
tracted dispute between Wolseley and
Sir William Russell as to the behavior
of the troops in South Africa In 1879.
Russell had accused the troops OF
drunkenness and footing in no uncer-
tain terms. Wolseley defended bis
men with generous warmth. but the
manner in which both Wellesley and
Russell kept their regard for each 9th
er, each well knowing that the other
spoke in sincerity, was a model OF
how a dispute of principle should be
conducted between public men.

sWhaeIr Barometer.

What Is known as the wheel baros
meter is an ingenious variation of
Torricelli's idea. This barometer was
invented by Robert Hooke, probably
the greatest philosophical mechanic
of his day. 1t is intended to indicate
the weather without observing the
mercury itself. There IS the usual
tube, but it is bent at the bottom into
a short leg. In this leg little glass
float rests upon the surface of the mer-
curry. A cord attached to the float
passes over the pulley. The pulley is
furnished with a pointer that moves
around the dial, the moving agency be
ing the rising or falling mercury
which lifts or lowers the float.
