THE AMBULANCE CALL.

A Pathetic Scene that Touchea the Chorda of Haman Sympathy. Of the many and shifting scenes of New York’s swarming thoroughfares I know of none more full of human pathos, none that meets with a quicker response of human sympathy than the ambulance call, says a metropolitan writer. There is the dramatic element in the reckless speed and the loud gong of warning and the scattering wagons and pedestrians as the ambulance comes tearing down Broadway that draws undivided attention. But it is in the character of the mission itself that Universal sympathy and speculation center. In a city where human life Is cheap—where a hundred human souls dally take their flight into the unknown, and where murder and suicide and fatal accident are present at every breakfast table—death itself excites but momentary attention. But there is something that appeals more powerfully to the sympathies of men than mere death—and that Is human suffering, and there Is something that more readily rouses the slumbering Imagination than actual sight—and this Is the uncertainty. When the ambulance rolls by like a thundering whirlwind.scattering everything before it, there is at once brought up in every mind the question of human suffering and the pique of uncertainty. There Instinctively rises in every brain the mental picture of some “ambulance case” witnessed at some time or another. If you never happened to be present on the scene of accident itself perhaps some newspaper horror of the day repeats itself in the wayward imagination in all Its sickening details. This morning it is the account of a man crushed under an elevated engine; yesterday it was an innocent young girl murdered by her maniac lover; the day before it was a boy taken maimed and bleeding from beneath a cable car—and so on from day to day, from week to week, and from year to year, in the never-ending circle of human suffering and violent death. And to me it is a sw’eet reminder of the common bond which binds all human hearts together beneath the cloak of sordid life to feel that within every gentle breast the blood ebbs and flows with unbidden irregularity at the clang and roar of the whirling ambulance.

Rome and Paris.

Rome, already occupying a central position in relation to the country inclosed within a semi-circle of the volcanic Latin hills, found herself also placed In the center of the oval formed by the Apennines; aud later, after the conquest of Italy, her territory occupied the medium voint of the whole peninsula bounded by the Alps, and marked almost exactly the half-way station between the two extremities of the Mediterranean, the mouths of the Nile, and the Straits of Gibraltar. Paris, again, so finely situated near a triple confluence of the waters, at the center of an almost Insular river-basin, and toward the middle of a concentric series of geological formations, each containing its special products, has also the great advantage of standing at the convergence of two historic roads —the road from Spain by Bayonne and Bordeaux, and theroad from Italy by Lyons, Marseilles and the Cornice; while at the same time it embodies and individualizes all the forces of France In relation to her western neighbors— England, the Netherlands aud Northern Germany. A mere fishing station at first between two naiTow arms of the Seine, the opportunities of Paris were limited to her nets, her barges, and her fertile plain that stretches from the “Mont des Martyrs” to Mont Geneviere. Next, her confluence of rivers and streams—the Seine, the Marne, the Ourcq, the Bievre —turned her into a fair or market; and the convergent valley of the Oise added its traffic to the rest. The concentric formations developed around the ancient sea-bottom gradually gave an economic importance to their natural center, and the historic road between the Mediterranean and the ocean made her the nucleus of Its traffic.—Ellsee Rechis, in the Contemporary Review.

The Colorado Needs One.

Something quite in the way of a ship building novelty has just been turned out on the Tyne. This is a vessel of 150 feet long and S»A feet deep, especially constructed for river traffic on the Amu Darya, whose bed is so shallow and so full of shifting sandbanks that it was necessary to so construct the vessel as to draw only two feet fully loaded. The vessel has. moreover, been built In small sections, which, after being pieced together for the trial trip, have been disconnected and shipped to Batoum. From this port they will be transshipped by rail to Baku, thence across the Caspian Sea, and on by rail to Charjui, on the River Amu Darya. She has been designed to burn oil as fuel, and it is interesting to note that on the trial trip this oil-burning apparatus was put to a series of severe tests, and apparently proved thoroughly successful. This very uncommon specimen of the ship builder’s art has been built on the Tyne, for the service of the War Office Department of the Russian Government. —Shipping Gazette.

A BIG CEDAR.

I* Was Four Hundred Feet High and Seventy Around* G. A. Dyer, of this city, has the largest tree on exhibition'ever shown In the State says the Tacoma (Wash.) News. It is a cedar, cut near Ocosta, Wash. It took eight men twenty-four days to cut and load it on the car. The part exhibited consists of fourteen feet of the butt, together with sections of the roots. The marked features of this tree are that it was solid to the base. After it was felled it was split into sections that could be handled and the center taken out. It is now set up, so that from the outside it appears In its original state, but within it is hollow, into which entrance is made through a door. Mr. Dyer says the tree was 407 feet in height, and that it measures seventy feet in circumference. This includes the “ins and outs" of the base, while at an elevation ot thirty-three feet its diameter was fourteen feet It was sixty feet to the first limb, which is said to be seven feet In diameter. The first 300 feet was fifteen feet in diameter at the butt tapering to one foot at the top. Some one estimated the board measurement at 100,000 feet If this is correct the tree would have cut 10,000,(MX) Star A shingles, or 100 carloads. The tree will be taken east for exhibition.

Aerial Navigation.

The world is destined to be forced into giving aerial navigation a respectful consideration and to advance a step or two beyond kite flying. There is to be a gathering in Vienna of the men of all nations who are earnestly endeavoring to xvork out the problem of aerial navigation. Herr Kress, who has distinguished himself by his clever inventions, has succeeded in producing a flying machine, which he exhibited in a large hall. Immediately after he had placed the machine on a table it rose “like a bird” and flew to the end of the hall, amid the vociferous applause of the spectators. It was said that such machines might be made to exactly resemble birds, in order to be shot at by sportsmen xvho desire to improve their shooting capacity.— New York Advertiser.

SIMPLE REASONS.

A. burning gas Jet tn unhealthy in a led chamber, because one gas-light gives out as much carbonic acid as two sleepers. The bodies of moths are covered with a thick down because these insects fly by night and need protection from the dampness. The eyeball is white because the blood vessels that feed Its substance are so small that they do not admit the re~ corpuscles. Iron bedsteads are safe during a Aunderstorm, because, being good canductors, they keep the electricity from the body. Swallows fly low before a rain because the Insects they pursue are then near the ground th escape the moisture of the upper air. The flesh under the nails looks red because the nails are almost transparent, and thus the color of the tissue beneath is visible. Lightning is so destructive because of its enormous power. A flash of lightning has been calcinated to equal 12,000 horse power. It is harder to blow out a candle with a cotton than with a flax wick, because the porous cotton absorbs so much more of the tallow. Spontaneous combustion occurs in many substances because during fermentation heat is evolved and inflammable gases are engendered. Sea shells murmur because tbe vibrations of the air, not otherwise observable, are collected in the shell aad by its shape are brought to a focus. The bones of the skull are arched because in that form the greate-’t strength Is combined with the leas’ weight and quantity of material. A spoon in a glass filled with hot water prevents the breaking of the glass because the metal readily ab sorbs a 'arge part of beat .if tin water.

To Entertain a Sick Child.

A little sick child will play for an lour with a email hand mirror, and a ttack of bright picture cards Is a posiive boon. Never throw away a pieure card; put them in a box and they vlll come in use some day, If not for rour own children, for those of sometody else. Half the pleasure in living •omes from being able to be of service o others. It gives a glow to the heart hat nothing else on earth will bring. Those who live for self alone, without bought for others, are the crusty old •urmudgeons who go out of life unrejretted, their place considered better han their company. To bring a smile :o a little child’s face, a laugh Into its eart, ought to be the height of happi less, but we don’t often think of it hat way. “Even to the least of these,” me wiser than we once said, and Im •vbo carries in his heart the lov .or a ehild has gone far on the road to a Vr er life.—Washington Stay.

Use Salt to Sweeten Sugar.

Who would think of making sugar sweeter by the addition of salt? Such, however, is asserted to be the case by Prof. Zuntz, at a late meeting of the Physiollglcal Society of Berlin. From his experiments he finds that if to a solution of sugar there be added a slight amount of salt and water so weak that it excites no saline taste, the result is extra sweetening of the sugared water. The weakest of quinine solution is said also to produce a practically similar result The explanation given of the above seeming incongruity is that the ever so feeble saltness or bitterness Im. parts an Increased sensibility to the sensation o£ taste by the simultaneous stimuli, and hence an appreciation of additional sweetnesa
