Newspapers have just discover
ed a private letters written by
Richard Croker after the last
election, in which he attacked
Charles f.. Murphy, the present
boss of Tammany Hall. The letter
has been published in facsimile,
and CONSERVATION has spread
among the supporters of Murphy
in the organization.
OF course, Croker has no power
in Tamamny Hall now. and has
not had for many years. But his
attack on Murphy has an effect on
the rank and file of the democratic
party, who vote the Tammany
ticket in New York. Whatever
may be said about the dictatorial
powers of Murphy, Tammany in
the last analysis always listens to
the voice of the public. If suffi-
cient sentiment in the rank and
, file is worked up against Murphy
he will be compelled to step out.

ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE.
Changes That Come When the Baron
eter Falls an Inch.

Changes That Come When the 6arom-
eter Falls an Inch.
Few persons have any idea what
tremendous changes in the atmosphere
are indicated by such a rise or fall of
an inch in the barometer.
A cubic inch Of mercury weighs a
half pound. When the mercury falls
an inch a weight of one ton is re-
moved from every 1900 square inches
Of surface. This is a ton for every
area five and one-quarter feet square
II your house. for instance, is % by
40 feet, with an area of 1000 square
feet, a load of about thirty-six tons Is
lifted from the roof every time the
barometer shows an inch fall-that is,
thirty-six ton load would be lifted
If the house were air tight But as air
presses In every direction there is as
much of a push upward against the
roof from below as there is of a push
downward from above So the roof
actually feels no effect from the re-
moval of this heavy load.
In the same way a man of average
size would be relieved or a weight or
about a ton and half If there were
no air chambers in the human body.
1t has been figured that a fall of an
inch in the barometer over a territory.
400 miles square removes a weight
from the surface of the earth of $780,
0O0,O00,000 tons If this were loaded
on freight cars. twenty tons to the
car and thirty cars to the train, more
than 260,0O0,G00 trains would be re-
CURED to move it. If each train were
500 feet long they would stretch out
in a line more than 100000 miles
long
The only noise that accompanies this
great transportation feat is made by
the wind. which does considerable roar

than anything we could say in behalf of
Mayr's Wonderful Stomach Remedy. Suf-
ferers should try one dose of this Remedy
one dose should convince them that they can

Ailments are caused by the clogging of the
intestinal tract with mucoid and catarrhal ac-
eretons allowing poisonous fluids into the
Stomach and otherwise deranging the digestive
system. Mayr's Wonderful Stomach Remedy
painlessly removes these accretions without a
surgical operation and puts an end to Collie

Wanton Destruction May Mark the
Progress of an Army.
"All is fair in love and war;" runs the
old saying, and Mr.. z. A. Vizetelly in
his volume Of "reminiscences, "My Days
Of Adventure" proves the truth of it.
Referring to the appearance of the rail
way station at Nantes during the
Franco-German war, he says:
"Never since have seen anything re-
sembling it. A thousand panes of glass
belonging to windows or roofing had
been shlvered to atoms. Every mirror
in either waiting or refreshment rooms
had been pounded to pieces, every gilt
frame broken into little bits. The clock
lay about in small fragments; account
books and printed forms had been torn
to scraps; partitions, chairs, tables,
benches, boxes. nests Of drawers, had
been hacked, split, broken, reduced to
mere strips Of wood; the large stoves
were overturned and broken, and the
marble refreshment counter, some thir-
ty feet long and previously one OF the
features of the station, now strew ed

more amazing as no such work of de-
struction could have been accomplished
without extreme labor.

PURITY OF THE AIR.
An English Scientist Attacks Our
Theories Of Ventilation.

theories Of Ventilation.
Crowther, the English scientist, at
tacks one Of the most cherished Of our
hygienic notions with logic that COM
pels respectful attention His conten-
ton Is that efficient ventilation does
not depend upon the chemical purity
Of the air. The attempt should be to
secure motion, GOODNESS and dryness
rather than to dispIace one body OF
air by another.
He denies that there Is a toxic or.
ganic substance in the atmosphere as
the result Of human exhalations and
challenges those who disagree with
him to their proofs, as the existence Of
such poisons has never been scientif-
ically demonstrated
The lungs, according to him, are
never filed with air some of which
has not been exhaled. Inhala ton fol.
lows so closely upon exhalation In
normal breathing that portion of the
air that has just left the lungs is in
variably drawn back into them.
Exhaustive experiments show that
the amount of air thus returned is
from / to per cent In persons remain
ing quietly indoors. 1t is from 4 to
10 per cent in those asleep in bed
There are certain sections of the re-
spiratory apparatus, moreover, the
nose and the larger bronchi. in which
exhaled air always fingers 1t thus
appears that the air in the lungs is al
ways heavily contaminated with their
own excreting gases, even in outdoor
life, and the dead spaces make it GER
tain that this contamination will not
decrease.
1t is not worth while. so the doctor
argues, to pay much attention to the
small amount of carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere, therefore, and if the air is
kept in motion and not permitted to be-
come too moist or warm the necessary
ends of ventilation will be subserved
