HOME OF THE COLD WAVE.
Valley of l ulrri Hrttl.a ..lalla

It Is frequently asked: Vhr do
cold waves ordinate? The et.Ment
ponton of th North American conti
nent, says the Washington Post, 1. in
U probability. In the Saakatchev. an
Valley, eat of Mount Hooker and
Mount Hood, both of which are altu
ted In the Kocky Mountain range that
fllvldea Hritiish Columbia from the val
ley and the Alberta country. The
height of this mountain range prevent
the eastern trend or flow of vaKr from
the Pacific Ocean from crowing over
Into the valley, as It would were it not
for the presence of this high range of
mountains. Yet It must not be sup
posed that extreme cold always pre
vails here, because at certain intervals
the vapor from the Pacific flows east
by way of the Alaska peninsula,
through the upper valley of the Atha
basca River into Alberta and the val
ley of the Saskatchewan, and there
meeting with a more southern and
eastern flow of vapor that flows
through the gap In the mountain range,
made by the Bay of San Juan, it warms
nd expands the atmosphere, crosses
the path of the cold wave, and a
warmth of from 20 to 40 degrees Is the
result, as we often see graphically
marked on the weather map by red
dots here and there on Its surface. But
this does not satisfactorily answer why
It Is that the cold wave leaves Its home
In the above mentioned valley to go
Junketing on a southern tour. To find
the cause of those successive cold waves
which we experienced from time to
time last winter we will have to look
In quite another direction, down to the
northern tropical latitude, where the
great evaporation of those warm cur
rents and ocean surfaces is carried
westward from the Atlantic Ocean by
the trade winds, and Is massed together
between the winds of the eastern off
shore winds, blowing sometimes from
Florida, and at other times from Texas,
but In either case promoting cyclonic
action, which has the effect of enlarg
ing the area of the storm, and the im
mediate result Is an enormous expan
sion of atmosphere usually denominated
"low." As this "low" moves across the
surface of the middle or eastern states
It pours down large quantities of water
In the shape of rain, and is constantly
receiving accessions of cloud matter to
replenish Its energies; and thus In this
manner it creates more or less of a
vacuum Into which the air from the
northwest Is drawn with more or less
momentum, and the cold wave Is completed.
DOUBLE-BARRELED NAMES."
Vie of the Uyphen Is Usually a Place
of Snobbery.
Hyphenated names In Europe may be
divided Into two categories namely:
those wherein the hyphen is a mere
piece of snobbery and affectation, and
those wherein it Is consequent upon a
legal obligation. The latter are In the
minority and are borne almost invari
ably by legatees and their descendants,
who have Inherited property, usually
real estate, contingent upon their tack
ing the name of the testator on to their
own. Or else they are men who have
married Heiresses and been accepted as
husbands for the latter on the condition
that they should append the family
name of their wives to their own
patronymic. People in the other cate
gory who use the hyphen merely with
the object of creating the Impression
that they are of more ancient lineage
than Is really the case invariably pre
fix, lnstc id of appending, the addition
al name. And It is this that enables
one to distinguish the "bona-flde
double-barrel," as Lord Randolph
Churchill used to call them, from those
who are not For you have only to ask
Mr. Ponsonby-Jones for the name of his
paternal grandfather In order to find
out that the old gentleman was a sim
ple Jones, devoid of the aristocratic
Ponsonby; whereas In the case of sur
names adopted in deference to testa
mentary dispositions one will Invaria
bly find on Inquiry that the paternal
grandfather and ancestors bore the first
of the two patronymics. The persons
who make use of hyphenated names
without being compelled to do so are
usually the owners of patronymics ex
cruciatingly pleblan, who hope, vainly
It Is true, to redeem the commonplace
character of their name by prefixing
thereto one calculated, they trust, to
ereate the impression that they are con
nected with some of the great houses
of the nobility. Thus it is uite com
mon to find Montmorency-Smiths,
Plantagenet-Roblnsons, and Vere de
Vere-Browns.
Ornamentation of Glaus.
The ornamentation of glass Is now
proposed to be effected by means of an
Ingenious process In which a coat of
acid resist is laid on the glass, and from
the parts forming the background to the
design the "resist" Is removed with a
stencil, soda and hydrofluoric acid be
ing then poured upon the sur
face; hydrofluoric acid Is next
applied, the resist removed, and
the glass cleaned, the latter being now
coated with stain, the use of the sten
cil being the means for freezing the
ornament from such stain, the latter
remaining as a protection for the back
ground. After burning the stain Into the
glass, the latter Is taken from the kiln,
cleansed, and the required outline
traced upon the glass, the background
at the Bame time filled with acid resist;
the solution of soda and hydrofluoric
acid is again poured on so as to leave
a white "mat" on the whole ornament,
leaving the outline, which is protected
by the resist, clear; the shadlng-ln is
then accomplished in the usual man
ter. Ants That Make Neat.
A new phase In the wonderful Instinct
of ants is the case of formica smarag
dina of Malacca, which makes its nest
In trees. Joining the leaves together by
a thin thread of silk at the ends. The
first step tn making the nest is for sev
eral 'ants to bend the leaves together
and hold on with their hind legs, when
one of them after some time runs up
with a larva, and, irritating it with its
antennae, makes it produce a thread
with which the leaves are joined. When
one larva Is exhausted a second is
brought and the process is repeated.

NOT SO VERY POOR.
The Maa from raUn.1 Had S.OOS
la Ills WanlriHt.
Over two weeks asa V. 11. S'lctaolson
of New Zealand arrived hero on the
steamer Mariposa, and put up at tbo
American Exchange hotel, says the San
Francisco Examiner. He was so
roughly dressed and so unique In sp
pearanee, with a queer bunch of whis
kers on bl chin, that he seemed a
walking advertisement of hard luck.
He had arrived In the steerage, and be
took one of the very cheapest rooias
In the house. Vnder these circum
stances Manager Wiseman was In
clined to keep-a wary eye on him. At
the end of three days Mr. Wiseman
broached the Idea of settling bis bills.
The queer guest said he would pay the
bill in the next day or two. He did not,
however, and he was spoken to again
about It. Still there was a hitch, but
finally the New Zealander said he would
go upstair and get the money. After
a while he came down with It and
paid the bill. Then be explained that
the reason why he hadn't paid It before
was that he bad all his money sewed up
In his vest On Investigation It waa
shown that he bad a surprising
amount There was no less than $5,000
in bills and English sovereigns, mostly
the latter, besides $1,000 in drafts. The
sovereigns weighted the vest down till
It was as heavy as the owner, and all
an able-bodied man could carry. They
were skillfully and stoutly sewn In from
the bottom up, so that all around bis
sides and front there was money, and
the back of the vest had to be strength
ened with leather straps to keep the
garment from being pulled to pieces.
This queer contrivance, loaded with
coins, bills and drafts, the man with
the billy-goat whiskers bad been lug
ging with him wherever he traveled.
There were fears at times that be
would be robbed, but Nicholson has al
ways Insisted that be could take care
of himself. A few days ago, after re
turning from a warm walk down town
with his load of cash, he threw off
his heavy vest In bis room and put on
another one to cool off. He finally
stepped down stairs, leaving tbe door
open. He sat at a desk for a long time,
forgetting about his cash. Suddenly
he recollected It, his face assumed an
ashen hue, and he vanished upstairs
like a streak of light His precious
Test was there, though, hanging on a
chair. He grabbed it and put it on,
and since then has worn It constantly.
Nicholson came over to Invest his mon
ey, but did not find anything to suit
him, so the land of the antipodes will
get him again. He sailed on the Mari
posa, the same steamer on which be
came.
Cataloguing a Creat library.
A word more In regard to the prob
lem of the card catalogue. A few ye,ars
ago It was proposed In this library to
print its titles as they then stood, and
an approximate but safe estimate
showed, after cutting the titles down
to the minimum of intelligibility and
correctness, that such a book catalogue
would fill more than seventeen vol
umes, closely printed in somewhat
small type and In two columns to a
page, each volume to be of quarto size
and to contain 650 pages. By the time
this colossal feat could have been done
enough titles would have accumulated
to make it desirable to repeat the task
at once. Since this estimate was made
the type-setting machine, with its
speed and economy, has become a revo
lutionizing element In the printing
world. This library is now asking
Itself how this invention can be used
toward solving the catalogue problem.
It Is- proposed and machines are al
ready made for the purpose to print
the titles of all new books, to use the
titles as heretofore in the card cata
logue, and then to save the "slugs" on
which each title will be cast until
enough have been accumulated and al
phabetized to form the baals for a gen
eral printed catalogue. The slugs will
still be saved, and by a constant proc
ess of accumulation and alphabetizing
new editions will at any time be possi
ble. "The New Public Library in Bos
ton," by Lindsay Swift, in the Century.
The Campaign Liar.
The campaign liar will have a hara
time in England after the passage of
the bill pending in parliament which
forbids him to exercise his talent. It
imposes a fine of $500 and loss of suf
frage for five years as penalties for
disseminating slanders against a can
didate for office. It makes no difference
whether the slander is original with
the person who utters it or not, he is
liable to the above penalty If he cir
culates or repeats it, unless he can show
that he had good reason for believing
it to be true. Hearsay will not serve
as such defense, but the offender must
prove that he has taken pains to satisfy
himself that what he tells Is true. What
havoc, such a law, well enforced, would
create in this country in a campaign
year!
Character on the Wheel.
Each man retains the peculiarities ot
his gait on a bicycle to a certain ex
tent. One man, for instance, who limps
a little ln walking, does the same thing
on his wheel, emphasizing one stroke
more than another. A second, who
moves with long strides when his feet
are on terra firma, simply translates
this motion to meet the new environ
ment when he goes out for a ride. A
third, being a brisk, energetic little
person, always walking rapidly, keeps
his legs going at a relative speed on
his safety and couldn't stroll along if
he tried.
Betting Killed In Pennsylvania.
Horse racing in Pennsylvania has
been kiMed by a bill that passed the
legislature forbidding the sale ot pools
or betting of any sort in the state. It
is especially directed to break up the
pool-rooms. While hitting at the pool
rooms it has wiped out all betting.

One good end was gained by the led Trilby, the baby elephant, from the

several physicians of advanced Ideas,
who boldly advance the roosltton
that they can cure ordinary human III
by dieting and without the use of medi

contain all the elements inry to
effect cure; that they have made up a
list which embrace tonics, febrifuge,
dluretli-a. and. In fuel, every medicinal
agent that Is defined In the pharmaco
poeia. These f.iods are of the simplest
character, but the English doctors do
not disclose them, except to their pa
tients. They say that In the course of
ten years there will not le one-third th
medicine used that is used to-day, and
they point out the f a t that the sale of
quinine and all antipyretics has de
