New IIIumInator for Microscope.

Prof. Alexander Silverman has in
vented a new illumlnator for the MI
croscope. whose special advantage Is
that 1t gives a very strong light upon
the object examined, so that opaque
and translucent bodies can be az readI-
ly studied ms transparent ones. The
top Of the object or the side can be
seen with all the variations of Its sur
face. 1t is particularly valuable in
testing samples Of metal since It
shows the presence of blow holes and
pits and much detail not hitherto WIS.,
ible. 1t is likewise useful to textile ex-
perts since 1t shows the threads of a
fabric from every angle and is also
much appreciated by bacteriologists.

She danced the minuet with men

She wore high necks and long

would have considered the sash and

Her skirt was very long and her toes
peeped in and out like tiny mice, we

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Dublin, Dec. 13.-The central portion
of the city of Cork has been burned to
the ground and other portions of the
city are ablaze. The -contflagration fol-
lowed an ambush of the military at
Pillons Cross in which -four persons
were killed and many wounded. Three
civilians were taken from their houses
and shot dead after the ambush of the
military. Then the fires started.
There were bomb explosions and fir
Ing also was heard. The ~populace is
panic-stricken.
An official report of the conflagra-
ton says that the Cork city hall, the
Carnegie library, the Corn market and
eighteen other buildings had been de-
stroyed.
The municipal buildings, the Carne-
gle library and the Corn exchange,
which cover a large area, have been
consumed by the flames, which were
so hot at places that passing tram cars
have been set on fire.
Several blocks of buildings in the
heart of the business district of Cork
were destroyed by fire during the
night, constituting the costllest de-
struction of property since the repris-
ais began in Ireland.
A group of public buildings on Al
bert Quay, including the city hall, the
Carnegie library and a portion of the
Corn exchange, also were burned, as
well as private residences in various
parts Of the city.
Early estimates place the damage at
between 100000 and 100000 pounds
sterling.
The fires extended to st. Patrick's
street, from Cook street to Maylor
street, and swept entire rows of build
ings on both sides of Winthrop street,
leading from st. Patrick's street to Old
Georges street.
1t is not improbable that lives have
been lost in the fires; already several
persons connected with the destroyed
houses and business premises are re-
ported missing.
At 4 o'clock this afternoon people
were just beginning to venture again
into the streets; the whole city was
then in control of the military, and 1t
is understood the officer In command
assured the populace that the military
would remain on duty indefinitely to
prevent further destruction.
The troops are in full fighting order,
pickets with machine guns being post
ed at all vantage points.
Only one large drapery establish
ment is left intact in Cork.
The destroyed city hall in Cork was
only excelled In point of size in Ireland
by Belfast's great civic building.
This was the third time 1t had been
set on fire, the firemen being driven
out at the point of revolvers.
On the two previous occasions the
west wing, devoted to the public health
department, was burned. This time
the hall was set alight In many places.
The great hall, seating 5000, and
having a fine organ, shared the fate of
the municipal premises.
The fact that no serious casualties
were caused by the bombs is explained
by the statement that preliminary
warning was given to all occupants of
buildings to leave prior TO the attacks.
