Talque Methods of Reasoning Which Some People Adopt. Charles Daniels, a member of con- from Buffalo, served years on RUINED BY A CONTRACT. Outside of His Line. The founder of the Vendome column in Paris met with financial ruin in his contract. The French government, when it decided to erect the notable cclumn, entered into a contract with an iron founder, says the Philadelphia Record. He knew nothing whatever of modeling or casting in bronze. The gevernment agreed to supply him with cannon captured from the Russians and Austrians during the campaign of 1805, in quantities sufficient to found the monument. The contractor, know- ing nothing of the phenomena which the fusion of bronze offers, found when two-thirds of the column was com- pleted that he had used up all his metal. Sufficient bronze had been given him to complete the monument, and he was responsible for the entire amount. Finding himself face to face with bank- ruptey he melted up his and mixed the metal with cheap refuse which he purchased, and so completed the founding. The castings, however, were found to be so full of flaws that the work was stopped, and the founder ruined. The moldings of the different parts of the bas-relief were so badly executed that the chiselers who repaired the defects removed no less than 70 tons of bronze. They received for their labor £12,000, to which was added the 70 tons of bronze, which became their perquisites. The whole transa very, very French. BROKEN WIRE. How the Telegraph Operator Tells Where the Break Is Located. Perhaps the greatest of all mysteries, to the uninitiated, about telegraphy is the fact that when a wire is broken or damaged the operator, sitting in his office, can tell exactly where the acci- dent has occurred. The explanation, however, is very simple. It requires force to send elec- tricity through a wire, just as it does to pump water through a hose. The longer the wire is the greater is the force required. This force is meas- ured; but, instead of calling it pounds, as in the measuring the pressure in a boiler, electricians call the units of elec- trical force “ohms.” Suppose a wire between two offices is 150 miles long, and that, on a stormy night, it gets broken somewhere. The telegraphist knows that when the wire was sound it takes just 2,000 ohms to send a current through, or 14 ohms per mile. He now finds that he can send a current with only 700 ohms. He di- vides 700 by 14, and finds that the break in the wire is 50 miles from his end. When the wire is under the sea a cu- rious thing happens. The electricity decomposes the sea salt, and a new salt is formed on the broken ends of the wire; and until that is cleared away by what is called a zine current, acting for ten or twelve hours, no measurement can be made. the New York supreme court bench Re- before he was elected to congres: cently, in talking over old law with a number of lawyers, says the Troy Times, he told a story which was a dazzling illustration of the unique methods pursued by some _ people to arrive at conclusions. ‘The case in question was that of « man named Greenfield, living in Oswego county, who had been convicted in the lower court of the murder of his wife. The case was carried to the court of ajs- peals, which reversed the finding of the lower court. <A special hearing was ordered by the governor. This was held at Syracuse, and Judge Daniels was called upon to preside. In examin- ing the jurors, one man d that he was prejudiced in the matter. When asked if he had gleaned his prejudice from the papers or by talking with in- terested parties or by hearsay, he re- plied to every question that he didn’t know a thing about the case, but that he was nevertheless prejudiced. He was excused, but Judge Daniels was not satisfied, and he sent the sheriff end had the juror brought to him. He asked him where he had gained his prejudice. The fellow replied: “I don’t know anything about the case, but the lawyers made such idiots of themselves in examining the jurors that I knew the man must be guilty.” HORSELESS SLEIGH INVENTED. ‘Will Run on Snow and Ice and Even in the Water. Motors for horseless sleighs are among the latest novelties at the patent office. They are light, powerful affairs, and can be run by an amateur as easily as those attached to horsel carriages. The sleighs are designed, says the New York World, to run, either on the snow or ice. A pair of spurred wheels is arranged between the runners, and with a little lever the driver can adjust them so that they will work on the soft snow justes smoothly as upon ice. One inventor has also provided against. the danger of breaking through the ice. His sleigh is formed something like a boat, and is perfectly water tight. If the ice should break the sleigh would float, and the ice spurs would act as paddle wheels in bringing you to shore again. One patent is for a sleigh that may be rowed across the ice. On the end of each oar is a heavy weight with a sharp steel point to cut into the ice. Another rowboat for the ice h slid- ing seat and legs with spurs, which catch into the ic coriae ection was sharp and shove the boat forward each time the rower pulls Considerable speed is obtained by this arrangement, although the rowing is not as easy s upon the water. SPOILED THE PERFORMANCE. Misadventure That Befell an Actor in a Realistic Play. Last winter a number of literary peo- ple indulged from time to time in ama- teur theatricals. During February they produced a comedy. One of the actors, says London Tid-Bits, played the part of a burglar and had to climb up the outside of the house in which Nature Plaints of Negroes.

THE LETTER “‘T.” A French Graphologist Says That It In- dicates the Writer's Character. A French graphologist has discovered that character can be read from the letter “t” alone. He elaims that the vertical line represents the fatality of life, and the horizontal bar the influ- ence human will exercises upon this fatality. In addition, he claims that the higher part of the vertical line—that project- ing above the horizontal bar—has indi- cations of the amount of ideality con- tained in the make-up of the writer, and that the inferior part of this line corre- sponds to the practical and material part of the man’s character. For instance, the optimist crosses h t's with a line that slopes upward from the earth to the sky, as it were. The poet often crosses his t's quite above the vertical line; in other words, in the sky. The pessimist crosses his t's with a downward sloping stroke. The line which commences at the ideal portion of the letter, descends little by little un- til it is lost among the sad realities of earthly existence. ‘The practical man, it appears, always steers a middle course, and erosses his BIAEGEe: f B : t's neither in the ideal nor in the ma.| isfying said debt, interest and costs. terial, but exactly midway between the fe EE a Be: = Public Administrator's Notice.
