Tubular Chimes.

Tubes instead of bells for chimes
came into use In England half a cen

a mellower, more musical tone; they
take up much less space than bells,
and they weigh much less. The sub
ject of tubular chimes has all the in.
terest that pertains to bells generally.
In making bell the most expert
founder cannot predetermine with ex.
actitude the tone of the bell. General.
ly bells and tubes have to undergo nice
notifications after they are finished,
and It Is much easier to alter the tube
delicately to get just the pitch and tone
quality sought than to modify the bell.

MARYLAND. FRIDAY MORNING. JANUARY 7.


Who would believe that among crea-
lures having well developed domestic
instincts we must include the humble
crabs, the spiders Of the sea-" as VIC
tor Hugo calls them2 Once under wa
ter, we might expect one part of the
sea to be as homelike rs another, but
that only shows how little the average
human being understands crabs
point of view. Some one, however.
suspected them Of the homing instinct
and so tried the experiment Of catch
ing a pair of them on the Yorkshire
coast, in England, and, after marking
them, carrying them south fifty miles
or more, returning first one and then
the other to the water at different
points on the shore. Then the York
shire crabbers carefully searched their
traps as they made each haul, on the
lookout for the possible return Of the
wanderers. Strange to relate, one day
not one, but both of the crabs were
caught second time, having made
their way back across the intervening
miles of sea bottom to their Yorkshire

Melancholia does not mean depres-
sion of spirits. A man may be as de-
pressed as 1t is possible to be and still
not have melancholia. Melancholia is
dependency on account Of painful de-
lusions. One of tho two typical delu-
sions of melancholia is that the unpar-
donable sin has been committed, that
God has been offended beyond redemp-
ton and that hell is to be the ultimate
goal; the other is that Of impending
poverty. Everything is lost or is about
to be. The patient and his family are
going to end up In the poorhouse. His
acts alone have brought about this ter
rible calamity from which there is no
escape. It can be readily seen that
person having decisions OF this type
must be necessarily depressed. There
is probably no form OF insanity In
which the anguish Of the patient equals
that OF the melancholiac. Life is one
continuous horror. Exchange.

The queerest locomotives are the

These crabs operate by trolley con-

Waterspouts.

The waterspout at sea and the tor
nado on land are manifestations OF
great instability of the atmosphere In
a vertical direction, caused either by
an abnormally warm surface layer of
air or an abnormally cold layer at the
cloud level, says Nature. The former
cause Is common In summer; the lat
ter occurs both in summer and winter
and is usually associated with a Zine
squall'' or V shaped barometrtc de-
preston. The waterspout shows the
track along which surface air passes
spirally upward to restore equilibrium.
The commotion Of the sea is due to
the exceedingly violent character Of
the phenomenon. The funnel itself Is
probably composed partly of moisture
condensed out Of air by the sudden
diminution of pressure which occurs
and partly of sea water In the form Of
spray. Sometimes the middle portion
Of the visible funnel is absent, but
there must in that case be a CORE
spending complete funnel of rotating
air from the surface Of the cloud.
