In a small valley amidst the Jura hills there is a succession of small towns and villages, says 1'rince lvroin ?1i? vtlnntii' itinso Krencli speaking population was entirely given at that time, men and women alike, to the various branches of watchmaking. Whole families used to work in small workshops; in one of them I found another leader, Adhemar Schwitzgttebel, with whom I afterward became very closely connected. He sat among a dozen young men, all busy engraving lids of gold and sliver watches. I was asked to take a seat on a bench or table, and soon we were all engaged in a lively conversation upon socialism, government or no government, and the coming congresses. In the evening a heavy snowstorm raged; it blinded us and froze the blood in our veins as we struggled to the next village; but, notwithstanding the storm, some lifty watchmakers, chiefly aged persons, came from the neighboring villages and towns? some of them as much as seven miles distant?to join a small informal meeting that was called for that evening. The very organization of the watch trade, which permits men to know one another thoroughly and to work in tln'ir own nouses, n ucic iui? iiiu lire to talk, explains why the level of intellectual development in this population is higher than that of workers who spend all ineir life, from early chilliood in the factories. There is more independence and more originality among fliem. Fuel Oil Tests. So far the tests with fuel oil intended as a substitute for coal on ships of war, which are being made at Norfolk and New York, do not appear to have sustained the glowing reports of tests made abroad. It is most probable. however, that coal will some day be superseded by some more easily handled fuel. The authorities having charge cf the present tests have near:y reached the conclusion that fuel oil \J^1 be valuable only in times of emergency, especially on board torpedo boats, wnen 11 is uecessm; iy gt-i uy steam quickly. At such times the question of economy need not enter into the matter. It is yet too early io determine whether fuel oil will lie ,mokeless. and the other features >hich have recommended its trial have not been fully demonstrated, therefore it may be some time before anything definite in the way of an improvement will be discovered.

Part of the investigations of May CSth will be directed, not to the sun itself, but to the space lying between the sun and Mercury. We are told in a paper by Julia MaoNair Wright in the May "New Lippincott' that It has been the dream of many astronomers that about half way between the sun and Mercury lies a little planet, lost in the effulgence of the sun. Sir William Ball names this the "Planet of Romance." Other astronomers have searched for it. christening it Vulcan before it has been found. If ever such a planet rolled exactly between the earth and the sun. it would sometimes Ut? St?eil crawilll& wtvi: <l uitirxv uui av.?uos the sun's dl3k. In the gloom of an eclipse such an orb might show its face if its position as regards the earth were favorable. Most astronomers have concluded that there is no such planet, but that the space between Mercury and the sun is empty. Such things as creditors' meetings are likely to bo ovordun.
