Taylor,s Long Sentence.

No widely known English writer
comes anywhere near the record of
Nine. Peguy and Dumas In the matter
of long sentences. Gibbon has some
rather long and involved ones from
which one emerges with a gasp. and
DR.. Johnson built up some sounding
enormities of the kind. There is
sentence in Jeremy Taylor's DAY of
Judgment" that runs to 302 words. This
must approach, If it does not reach,
the record In our tongue.

No Two Eyes See Alike.

'"There is an old saying that 'seeing's
believing In ordinary matters this
may be So" writes Professor John Ait
ken in letter to Nature. "but the be-
lief is not necessarily true and in ques-
tons of color is full of pitfalls. No two
pairs Of eyes see colors alike. This
does not refer to color seeing and col
or blind eyes only, but there is reason
to believe that all eyes differ more or
less in their perception of color"

One of the coolest januarys ever
known in this section came to an
end Monday night. The month
was hard on the wood piles and
coal bins, on account OF the low
average temperature. The lowest
observed here was early Monday
morning when different thermome-
tiers showed from 10 to 20 below
zero. However, except for the
days when the bitter east wind
prevailed, the cold weather has
been noticed more because it was
unusual than because of its severi-
ty, for it has been mild when COM
pared with some other parts of the
northwest, notably Montana, where
more than 90 below zero has been
repeatedly reported.

MARINE TRAFFIC IN N. Y. HARBOR
 NEARLY TIED UP

New York, May 1.-The marine traf f1c of this port was seriously affected today by a strike Of the engineers and firemen on the vessels of the lighter age class Hundreds of tueboats and other towing craft were idle at their piers, and the congestion of freight involving delays Of cargoes on steam ships and railroads presented a serious problem.
 Fog, which enshrouded the early day, added to the difficulties.
 The engineers demand wage i'm creases approximating IA per cent.and recognition of their organization. The hremen ask 20 per cent. more pay.
 Out of a total of more than 700 tugs and steam lighters engaged in river and harbor traffic, it was esti- mated that only 40 were being oper- ated. Most of the large towing com .panfes and the Baltimore & Ohio Cen tra1 of New Jersey, Lehigh Valley and Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroads were affected. The tugs of the New York Central and New York New Haven 6 Hartford were in ser vice and it was reported that these roads had met their employees de- nands.
 Some of the boat owners declared they were prepared to grant the in- creases sought but that the Beneficial Association of Engineers refused to let it's members deal individually with their employers. Other owners claimed that they were already pay ing wages in excess of those asked by the association and only the demand for recognition stood in the way of an adjustment of conditions.
 . announcement was made later in the day that the Baltimore & Ohio, the Central of New Jersey, the Leaigh Valley, Delaware, LackawaT1na & Western, the Pennsylvania and the Erie railroads had reached a satisfac- tory agreement with the engineers association and that the tugs and lighters of these roads were in opera ton. A similar agreement had been reached by the International Mercan- tile Marine. it was stated, and the 1ongshorenaan announced that there would be no synpath etic strike on their part. With these developments, the harbor situation became less seri- OuS.

' deafening chorus of steam whistles. A huge cable which had been attached to the bow from the shore held the boat in place until the action of the tide brought her broad side to the shore Then the tugs+John Glenn and James McAllister came up, one on the bow, the other at the stern, and each threwa tow line to the men on board. Once these tow lines were ad- justed the craft was steadied in the channel until she could be anchored there The launching was one of the most successful ever attempted by the company.
 Boatmen remarked the perfect and graceful lines of the craft, her even keel and her graceful appearance in the water-if there is anything grace fuI about a submarine. The boat will be kept at anchor in the channel until such additions to her machinery and equipment necessary to put her in ser- vice can be made This, it is estimat- ed, will require a week or more.
