OUR FAMOUS ECHOES. REMARKABLE PHENOMENA IN BUILDINGS AND VALLEYS. Slight SounJs Audibly Repeated in the Great Tabernacle at Salt Lake CityWonders of Statuary Hall in the Capitol at Washington Are Exaggerated. In this country there are many wellknown buildings noted for their echoes, and of these perhaps none is more remarkable than the tabernacle in Salt Lake City. When this hall is eiupty and quiet, the ring of a pin falling uu the floor can be heard from all points and even the feeble, rasping sound produced by rubbing the hands together is perfectly audible from one end of the landing to the other. A better known, but really less wonderful, example of audibility within a building is found in the national hall of statuary in the capitol at Washington. The phenomena manifested here, which are genuine and interesting enough, have been somewhat overstated. I have spent a long morning in this nail studying the matter critically and having obtained due permission have questioned the various groups of visitors while being placed in chosen positions by the guides to hear the marvelous reverberations of sound. The guides certainly make the most of their opportunities for impressing visitors—but when a guide retreats to a distance to whisper you may observe on approaching him with due caution that his whisper is of the “stage whisper” sort and calculated to carry with great distinctness under any conditions. The chief acoustical peculiarities of the chamber are clearly due to the fact that the roof, which is panly domed, is not symmetrical with respect to the floor, so that a complex reverberation is the consequence. Natural echoes unsurpassed in wonderful effect are not far to seek in America. Trobablj’ Irish Killarney itself does not hide away more striking echoes than lurk within the famous Colorado canyon, and it would be rash to assert that these are quite the most wonderful to be found among the rocky retreats of the far West. Deep ravines being the recognized haunt of echoes, it may be taken for granted that many exist in the great gorge of Niagara, and anyone journeying to the falls by this approach will be well rewarded by stopping at Inspiration Point, walking forward to the edge of the cliff, and here waiting till the first train, on nearing the level crossing, blows its whistle. All the deep glen takes up and carries on the warning shriek. The musical chord blown so constantly by railway engines often meets with a beautiful response from the surrounding country. This is very noticeable round the lake of Geneva, Wisconsin, tvhen the listener is standing on high ground and trains are threading their way through the woodlands below. These effects are due to the nearness of extensive pine forests to the railroad tracks. Many who visited Wadesboro, N. C., to observe the total eclipse of the sun from the observation station there last j a«r noticed that the organ-like piping of the trains, when two miles distant in the broad, wooded valley below, would give place, without sensible break, to an echoing reply, drawn out in a prolonged strain, which slowly and softly died away like the wild notes of some gigantic harp.—Pearson’s Magazine. MOTHERED BY FEATHER DUSTER Chickens Thrive Under the Protection of an Inanimate Foster Parent. Seven fluffy little chickens belonging to a family living in Louisville, have a queen mother, says the Courier Journal. For the past two weeks the only protection they have had has been a big feather duster. The substitute for the mother has served its purpose so well that the family expects to raise chickens in the same way every year. The chickens were hatched about three weeks ago, their mother being an old hen which the family had bought in market and had intended to fatten and eat. P.efore she arrived at the proper condition to be baked she took a notion to set. As is usual in such cases persuasion was vain, and she held to her determination to raise a family. A dozen eggs were given her, and she hatched out eight chicks. Os these sho was very proud. About two weeks ago a number of friends from out of town visited the family unexpectedly. The problem of what to have for dinner was a serious one. as it was Sunday, and no groceries were open. It was suggested that the hen be killed, but the children were not willing that the chickens should be left to shift for themselves at so tender an age. The problem was solved by the boy, who suggested that the hen be killed and the big feather duster be substituted for the hen. The duster was suspended just above the floor in the corner of the kitchen, and the chickens placed under it in a box. There they have remained ever since and are growing rapidly. They seem to take kindly to the innovation, and at the first sign of danger they all retreat to the duster, nestling among the fc-Lthers. THE FREIGHT'S THE THING. Pullmans Make Ten Times the Show of Their Real Value to the Ko id. “About three-quarters of a railroad’s receipts come from the freight department,” says a writer in Ainslee’s. “The passenger department supplies nearly all the rest, the income from mail, express and other privileges being comparatively small. “Carrying passengers is a simple matter, or would be if State legislatures did not now and then take a hand in prescribing added specifications for railroad passenger service. In Ohio a law was passed decreeing that the height between the platform and the lowest steps of passenger coaches should not exceed twelve inches. This cost the railroads nearly SIOO,OOO, and the reform led to the abolition of a number of flag stops where the passengers had been quite willing to scramble up off the ballast. Legislatures in the West have been known to hamper and exasperate railroad men apparently for

the pure pleasure of the act, a stats of things that seems almost inconceivable in some Eastern States, where the legislatures represent the railroads better than the railroads could represent themselves. "Compared with the freight business, the passenger traffic presents few complications. The great simplifying factor is that passenger rates are stable, while freight rates are not. Passengers pay a fixed rate per mile for transportation. But the price of freight transportation varies according to the kind of freight, and according to the size of the lot. "It is curious to notice that the freight trains, scarecrow processions of shameless packing-cases on wheels, interminably squeaking through our streets, are the ones that really count when you come to make up the profits. The magnificent trains of vestibuled Pullmans which glide swiftly through the country on velvet roadbeds make ten times the show that their real value to the road warrants. Nothing, surely, is more disreputable in appearance than the procession of battered freightcars that jolts and creaks into the yard in the sunny mist of a Sunday morning —unless it is the physiognomies of the pair of brakemen trailing their legs over the roof. Yet the train is doing something more than its share toward keeping the line going. The two rowdies on the roof are. after all, gilt-edged conductors in the making. "It is a democratic business. Freight brakeman to freight conductor, freight conductor to passenger conductor—that Is the order of promotion on most American roads. So the freight-train man impresses himself on the whole passenger service.” EVOLUTION OF ACTING. Histronic Art Has Advanced fromVagabondase to Respectability. Acting has established itself, past all denial, as a profession, the members of which have advanced from vagabondage to respectability, and from the crudities of chance gifts to the excellences of methodical culture, says Franklin Fyles in Everybody’s Magazine. Actors must now be accorded a professional rating. The change in public esteem of them is not yet complete, as prejudice still hinders it, but considerate people have been generally won over by the earnest, aspiring, progressive work that is being done in the theaters. Even so justly eminent an actor as Forest stamped and bellowed bis way fiTim circus ring to the Shakespearean stage by physical force, with none too much of intellectual guidance. There wls in his day no graded road for those to take who set out for theatrical sueceis. They had to make their way with only faint trails to follow. The journey is ns arduous now, but less uncertain. The route has been laid out on direct Hurs, and the traveler is no more an adventurous explorer. If he is properly equipped for his journey to the stage, he is as likely to get there as though he started. Instead, for bar or pulpit, studio or laboratory. It may be that Helen Modjeska thought the drama In America had reached its highest possible elevation when she made her first tour in a railway car that was as resplendent as a circus chariot; that, a little further back, Charlotte Cushman deemed herself queen of tragic climax because members of the Lotus Club unhitched the horses from her carriage and dragged it from theater to hotel; that Edwin Forrest, not so very much longer ago, let his bosom swell with royal pride while his adherents and Macready’s fought one another to death in Astor place; but we have come out from such foolishness regarding dramatic genius, and got into sensible ways of thinking. ALFRED THE GREAT. Was the Exemplar of High Virtues and Founder of Mighty Race. Careful study must lead us all to conclude that Alfred is by no means the haiiy, mythological personage which uncritical enthusiasm once threatened to make of him, says Louis Dyer in the Atlantic. He has escaped the fate of his descendant St. Edward the Confessor, and we can form a clearly defined outline, if not a complete picture, of h:s lifi and character. Superstitions he had with which we cannot sympathize, such as the notion that the fires of Etna were infernal and had therefore been perceptibly less fierce since the birth of Christ. But are we not learning in America—almost with a sense of relief—that the moral perfections of George Washington were not incompatible with his well-authentica-ted employment, upon occasion, of exceedingly strong language? If this be our case with Washington, shall we not put up with a dash of superstition in one who has achieved the dangerous pre eminence of being called "the most perfect character in history" and of being not infrequently coupled with Washington?

It will indeed be a healthy result of lbi.s year's celebratiou of the one thousan<l*Jj anniversary of Alfred's death, if we learn to prize with discrimination the lessons conveyed by the life of Alfred, who was the father and founder of a great race. Indeed, he was himself the first exemplar of the virtues held iu highest esteem by that race the world aver, but nowhere more highly than in England and America, whose institutions still embody so much of Alfred’s spirit. Why She Was Mad. One morning, in kindergarten, a wee mite of womanhood had been trying to attract the teacher by every resource of which she was capable, without directly saying she had something to tell. Finally, the young girl went over and sat beside her, whereupon little Rachel flounced her skirts, puckered up her forehead, aud, clinching her hand, exclaimed: “Oh, dear, but I'm mad.” The teacher was surprised, for Rachel had seemed to be laboring under a delightful secret. “And why is little Miss Sunshine angry?” asked the instructor. "Well, everybody was mad at our house this morning. Mamma scolded Sister Jane, and auntie scolded mamma, and papa said, 'O darn,’ aud left the table, so I guess I can be cross, too.” —Motherhood. Every man occasionally gets into a mean, worthless state when he needs b. licking.

I •I railroad side lines. ( . Some Have as Many Hinds of Business as a Village! Store. ' “The thrifty railroad nian of the day ■ thinks up and puts into practice as many ingenious varieties of economy as ' can be crowded into Hie company’s messages of instruction. The economic laws governing the increase in the ’ trainload have become axiomatic. There ’ is no scope for a free imagination here. The details of the business, however, I fairly teem with possibilities. When , the railroad man considers the question of sending those six carloads of potatoes out to Berryville he knows ‘ full well that all his cars’may need to be hauled back empty. Us this sort of thing happened often enough, it would , pay the company to hire’an agent to scour Berryville and the; surrounding ’ country’ for return freights. If this ( canvasser were appointed! and labored a while, ami found his lal^or unproduc- ' tive, it might then be thought worth while to subsidize some local industry, ’ which would in good time yield a fair return in freight. These are but one । *r two of the ideas which would gyrate , through the heated brain of the railroad ( man considering the cost of carrying ( freight out Berryville wav. The past , ten years have seen some American J railroads loaded up with as many kinds of business as a village store. । “And no matter how gr^at a hodgepodge the details of Fu** busi- . ness may seem to hep It is n that . the railroad managers wll at the . thing as if all its knotty pr were so . much ineffable dovetailing. Whether ( it is running an iron mine at Hylo or , furnishing geranium beds for brownstone stations out on the line to Ingleside, they will affect to treat each of the multitudinous features' of the enterprise as a simple affair, readily submissible to the rules governing the I maintenance of railway systems. That ( the men sometimes think differently everyone knows. Nothing of human ( invention and supply ever becomes absolutely scientific. An old hand in an ( Eastern freight yard innocently summed up the situation when, with a descriptive gesture, he said: “ 'Them trains is run on a mathematical certainty, and they takes their chances.’ ’’—Ainslee’s Magazine.

There was no question about the CampaniA’s having slowed down, but the court held that the speed was excessive. Perfumes Were Popular. The rage for perfumes reached its height during the reign of Louis NV. Throughout the contiuent his court was known as the “scented court.” It was then the custom when giving a large entertainment for the hostess to inform her guests what particular odor she would use for perfuming her rooms, and each guest would use that odor in making her toilet. At court a different perfume was used for each day of the week. Much more attention was paid to the use of perfume than to soap and water, and cleanliness was not nunxbered among the virtues of that age. Lightning Strikes Feathers.

HOW GERMS MAY Bt KILLED. Jlisinfectants of Various Kinds and How They Are Used. Scientif men say that the disinfectants mo- useful as germ killers are moist 1K..1, such as is used in steam disinfectors, and certain chemical substances found by experiments to be germicides, says the Scotsman. Steam at 212 degrees Fahrenheit will kill germs of high resistance in tive min utes. Dry hot air at 2M degrees, on the other hand, took tour hours to effect the same end. it may be said that if articles of infected clothing are exposed to steam at 270 degrees for fifteen minutes all germs are destroyed. These means, of course, apply to public disinfectors which municipalities possess for the disinfection of clothing, bedding and the like. The chemical disinfectants which are the most powerful are bichloride of mercury (a poison), which in the proportion of one part to 1,000 of water kills all germs. Half an ounce to three gallons of water with :1 little aniline blue added (to color the solution and prevent mistakes) and one ounce of hydrochloric acid to assist the action of the mercury makes the best disinfectant known. Only the public cannot be trusted to use a solution which is poisonous. Carbolic acid is not a powerful disinfectant. Used in the proportion of live to 100 of water it will not kill all germs, and^vater will not take up more of the acid. Izal is not poisonous and is a good disinfectant. It is used in the proportion of one to 200 of water. Chloride of zinc (a corrosive poison) is a disinfectant often used for disinfecting typhoid excretions. Blushes When It Rains. One of the strangest things found in the morasses of Florida is the blushing tree. It is found only in the thickets of these interminable marshes, whose luxuriant vegetation always proves a revelation to explorers. It is called the blushing tree by those who know it because it actually blushes or turns a pink color when rain falls upon it. It is a graceful tree, with broad, bananalike leaves. Wide spreading branches hang down slightly waving in the warm breeze, and it has emerald-hued foliage. It rises to a height of twenty feet and its thick, substantial trunk indicates many years of existence. “While watching the tree the rain began to fail in torrents,” says a returned swamp explorer, “after a custom it has in these parts. As the cool water drenched the tree I was amazed to note a changing of its color. Gradually but unmistakably the green hue was giving way to pink. 1 went up to its trunk under its spreading branches to obtain a closer look and found it to be true, and the tree was blushing from the effect of the rain. In a few minutes the green had faded from sight, except In a few half hidden spots where the rain had failed to penetrate.” After the shower had passed over the spectator watched with equal interest this remarkable tree again assume its familiar green color. A Happy Boy. Oldenburg, 111., Sept. 2.—The doctors all failed in the ease of little thirteen-year-old Willie Kell, who suffered with acute Rheumatism. For over three months, the poor little fellow suffered excruciating torture. His father, who ha I done everything he could think of. saw a new Rheumatism Remedy advertised Dodd’s Kidney Fills. He bought some, and soon his little son showed signs of improvement. Three boxes cured him completely, and lie lias not a symptom of Rheumatism left. This miraculous cure of a case which had been given up by the physicians, has electrified Madison County, and Dodd's Kidney Pills are a mucb-talked-of medicine. Effect of Cold on Seeds. Experiments with plant seeds subjected to extreme cold have shown that the power of germination is not destroyed. but merely suspended by the cold. By the use of liquid air, seeds of barley, oats, squash, cucumbers, peas, sunflower and some other plants were recently kept for 110 hours at a cold of from 183 degrees to 192 degrees centigrade. They were then carefully and slowly thawed for fifty hours. They were then planted and sprouted as well as if they had not been frozen. The experiments were made by Messrs. Frowne. Escombe and Horan in London. “Bulls” and ■'Bears."
