Mcastr & Co. TELESCOPES. The Difference Betmt-en Reflecting and Refracting Kinds. A very pretty little experiment which illustrates the two methods of forming an optical image and by way of cor ollary illustrates the essential differ ence between refracting and reflectilgi telescopes may be performed by :my one who possesses a reading glass :u a magnifying hand mirror. In a room that is not too brightly illuminated pin a sheet of white paper on the wall or) posite to a window that by preferece should face the north or away from the position of the sun. Taking first the reading glass, hold it between the win dow and the wall parallel to the sheet of paper and a foot or more distant from the latter. By moving it to and fro a little you will be able to find a distance corresponding to the focal length of the lens, at which a picture of the window is formed on the paper. This picture, or image, will be upside down because the rays of light cross at the focus. By moving the glass a little closer to the wall you will cause the picture of the window to become indistinct, while a beautiful image of the houses. trees or other objects of the outdoor world beyond will be formed upon the raper. We thus learn that the distance of the image from the lens va ries with the distance of the object whose image is formed. In precisely a similar manner an image is formed at the focus of the object glass of a re I fracting telescope. Take next your magnifying or con cave mirror, and, detaching the sheet, of paper from the wall, hold it nearly in front of the mirror between the lat ter and the window. When you have adjusted the distance to the focal length of the mirror, you will see an image of the window projected on the paper. By varying the distance as be fore you will be able to produce at will pictures of nearer or more remote ob jects. It is in this way that images are formed at the focus of the mirror of a reflecting telescope. SUBMERGED GUNS. The Experiment of Firing a Canupn Buried Under Water. The most curious experiment ever made with a piece of ordnance was at Portsmouth, England. A stage was erected in the harbor within the tide mark. On this an Armstrong gun of the 110 pound pattern was mounted. The gun was then loaded and carefully aimed at a target-all this, of course. during the time of low tide. A few hours later, when the gun and the tar get were both covered with water to a depth of six feet, the gun was fired by means of electricity. We said "aimed at a target," but the facts are that there were two targets, but only one was erected for this special experiment, the other being the hull of an old ves sel, the Griper, which lay directly be hind the target and in range of the ball. The target itself was placed only twen ty-five feet from the muzzle of the gun. It was composed of oak beams and planks and was twenty-one inches thick. In order to make the old Griper in vulnerable a sheet of boiler plate three inches thick was riveted to the water logged hull in direct range with the course the ball was expected to take if not deflected by the water. On all of these-the oaken target, the boiler plates and the old vessel hull-the ef feet of the shot from the subri.rged gun was really startling. The wooden target was pierced through and through, and the boiler iron target was broken into pieces and driven Into Its "backing," the ball passing right on through both sides of the vessel, mak Ing a huge hole, through which the wa ter poured In torrents. Taken altogeth er, the experiment was an entire suc cess, demonstrating, as it did, the feasi bility of placing submerged guns in harbors in time of war and doing great damage to the vessels which an enemy might dispatch to such points for the purpose of shelling cities.-London Speitator. ________ The Sacred Bo Tree. On the night of Oct. 7, 1887, the tree worshipers of Ceylon met with an ir reparable calamity. During one of the worst storms that ever raged on the Is land their sacred bo tree was thrown to the ground. The oldest written de scription of this wonderful tree known to exist Is that by Fa Hiam, a Chinese historian and traveler, who visited the tree in the year 414 A. D. According to the learned Chinaman, it was then 702 years old, having been planted by King Devinipiatissa in the year 288 be tore our era began. If the above data be correct, and there is no reason for doubting it, the ho tce was more than 2,175 years old when the storm ended its career on the date mentioned above. Shifting the Blame. It Is the custom of the Khonds In the Madras presidency to offer a buffalo in sacrifice In substitution for the hu man victim, but in doing so they make long apologies to the deity, explaining that they themselves would willingly :Lake the customary sacrifice, but are prevented by the British government. on whose head they pray that any an ger at their neglect of duty may be visited.-Calcutta Englishman. Why He Quit. "Did you read my noyel, Criticus?" "Well, I read as far as the chapter where the hero was shot, and then I quit." "Oh, but the hero recovers in the n'ext chapter." "I was afraid he would. That's why I quit." One may dominate moral sufferings only by labor. Study saves from dis couragement.-Abr.ntes. Try a little KODOL FOR DYSPEP SIA after your meals.

Uaines Entertains House with "When Derccracy wil Die." (From the Wainton i'ot. John Wesley Gaines entertained the House last night by reading the following "poem," entitled, "When Democracy Will Die:" "When the lions eat grass like an ox, And the fishworm swallows the whale; When the terrapins knit woollen socks, And the hare is outrun by the snail; When serpents walk upright like men, And doodle bugs travel like frogs; When the grasshopper foeds or the hen, And feathers are found on hogs When Thomas cats swim in th< a;r And elephants roost upon trees When insects in sumlteer are rare And snaff never makes peopi< sneeze; When the fish creep over drj land, And mules on velocipedes ride When foxes lay e;gs in the sand And women in dress take n< )ride; When Dutehmen no lorger drinl beer, And girls get to preaching o1 time;. When the billy goat batts fron the rear, And treason no longer is crime When the bumming bird bray: like an ass, And limburger smells A i k cologne; When plowshares are made out o glass, And hearts of Tennesseeans arE stone; When sense grows in Itepnblicai heads, . And wool on the hydraulic ram Then the Democratic party wil be dead, And this country not worth d--n."
