' Much In Little. A method proposed for preventing mho encroachment of the ocean upon mho shores at watering places and also- where , is to make a submerged bar > fomr + littlodiataneo from time shore and running parailol thorowith. The top " ' of the bar comes vary near the surface ' at the water at low tide. The force of - the waves is spent upon the side of the ba' and the waves , which are laden with sand when they strike it , drop that sand upon or very near the bar , so that Instead of washing away the shore le they protect it , There arc several hundred feet of such bar opposite the k Afathattat Beach hotel at Coney Island , and anyone can see for himself that the beach in front of Unit hotel has not boon washed away for sonic time , while that ' in front of the hotels to the cast and . west of the Manhattan are cut into. In , fact , one in the hotels has had to be ) ' moved baclc this spring. "The proof of the pudding is in the eating. " 'rho ' 'a } betelgo is over two miles long and has eighty piora. The Natal gov- em inent has decided upon cxtenrdlug the railway along the coast to Zululand , 'CamiugZululand by a railway , as the S Morv Turcouans wore tamed by the Transcasptnn line , would be a cheap in- vestment. There arc said to bo more persons killed by falling out of windows than in raiiway accidents. This Is , however , no argument against providing - ing increased appllacas for safety on railways. Several of the French steam- which are required to have high 3 seed have boon .greatly hhelped in this by bronze screws Forcedraft is being tried , but so far not adapted by reason of certain complications. The ' turbine"runs now 'stcnm atonly 18,600 revolutions nor minute. It would be at least as much trouble to gear such an engine to ordinary high speed ma- ? cliinor as to gear our' ordinary steam engine ti to running the same machines - : chines There has bump considerable improvement in floating elevators for ? grain in bulk. The elevating machinery - ery is carrion by a pontoon moored alongside of the vessel to be unloaded , and taut be carried along tlm pontoon upon a railway , so as to serve various e hatches with but one elevator , Rubber- ; nialeing machinery has boot improved by an automatic mixer for the coot - t rotnnding. The Japanese ndmi allty have decided - cidod to coat the buttons of all ships with a material much lute the ordinary lacquo' which we Icnow on furniture and cabinet work , TnoUlu.u Wi.Tlf ALU3IJNITr3 . When there isa good solder produced r for alumittlum , there will be nioro use iII having the metal cheap. Anyone who has over tried to cast it o' to forgo ri it , to weld It or to turn it in a lathe , knot's that there will be mummy troubles attending its use , oven if It is produced cheaply. 'There is a field for someone to put upon the market a writing fluid which shall be black when. Written and y1 M ' 0 4 shall be permanent and not corrode the pen. Some of the substances used for making the dye for silk hats should prove useful in this connection. The "imitation leathers" which are put upon the market are made of tough stock , sometimes rope only and sometimes - times with the admixture of a little tuatlter scrap , and the surface is got by passing them between the rollers , one of which ( the one in contact with the face of the artificial skin ) has a surface made by taking an electrotype of a real skin of the kind desired to imi- tate-morocco , alligator , etc. There is yet room for some one to invent a process for the cheap and rapid production - tion of pure copper castings. To get this would be of more importance than the ro-discovery of the long-lost art of hardening copper. Whilemelinite has about the same explosive force as gum- cotton , weight for weight , it is much strotgor , volume for volume. The risk of shells loaded with high explosives bursting in the bore of the gun has been overcome by some means not made public. Shells filled with high oxplosive9 burst in going through the side of a ship , and thus tear away a large portion of its armor , while those filled with gunpowder go through the armor and burst itsido the vessel , causing less damage. On the other hand it does not take a very Lomtvy armor to break up the high explosive sholls. A new Gorman dynamite gun has been tried at Kiel. It is twelve inches in bore and seventy-live feet long. Firing it at an old hulk 2,111 yards from the muzzle , two shells each containing 59S pounds of nitro g ycer- ino , completely destroyed the vessel , breaking it in two. The miuw cost-iron gut which is being made at South Boston - ton , will be delivered totbogovernmet in the fall. It will be twelve inches bore with a stool tube anti stool hoops. One of the principal troubles is to got a purfoctly tight font at the shoulder casting of the gun. There is said to ho mooted upon foreign navies 12'9 gums , said to throw projectiles tat miles and upward , their calibre being 12 to 17 inches and their projectiles weighing up to 2,000 , pounds each. This is more liely to "sa so" than a fact. Thor- ought discussion of the question of torpe- does versus ht n guns puts the sentiment about as follows : That torpedo-boats advancing cud on have little to fear Iron- the marine gun even in broad day ; that - the discharge mnustbebctow rather than alongside the hull , mind that 80V- oral torpedo boats should be sot to attack - tack a single gun-ship instead of leav- lug it to one , Itt.Ee.r'1tIC 1XECDTIoNS. For legal executions the alternating eloctrie current is said to ho more mm- left and sure in its action then time continuous - tinuous , itnd the commercial opponents of the alternating current system in the field of lighting are making use of this statement to quite a considerable ox- tent.

England pays 3,000,003 a year for . hoe foreign supply of eggs , while , thirty years ago it raid only 260,000. Tltero scorns to be no reason why the Irish farmers should not furnish this large amount of staple merchandise. Russia is said to have several blast furnaces - naces which employ petroleum as fuel. Sonoma wino growers are putting down artesian wells with great success. The temperature of water from wells five miles apart being time same-seventy- two degrees F. Australia is more liothi- erod about the mouse pest than about the rabbits. Flammarion says that the temperature of the planet Mars is at least as high its that upon the earth and that the polar snows molt more rapidly than ours do.

A now style of filter recently shown in Denmark is a well having a porous hot- ten con sed of closely joined paves mont of terra cotta , and with walls of like material which has been treated with asphaltum to prevent the water near the surface from entering the well , which obtains its entire supply from the water percolating through the bottom. Biting the finger nails is said to be a cause of so-called sore throat , b' reason of the particles of nail lodging in the tonsils. There are 321 claims in the great Kimberly dimunotd mine in Africa.

She asked our opinion of herrings , and Syo asked hors of soap. She invited us to call at the house and sco some poetry she had written on the rise and fall of the mastodon. We complied. We called three or four tines afterward , but only its a friend. On onooccasion the widow showed us a olnpplug from an eastern newspaper to the effect that it was better - ter for a man who hind passed time 'ngo of twenty-threcjto marry a widow , if ho was to marry , but we didn't ' mto.

The grand circuit draws within its meetings each season the trotting cracks of the country as do the great running cracks the choicest blood and iron : ainong the thoroughbreds. Not so much money is woi and lost on the trotters as on the thoroughbreds of course. But the grand circuit of 1888 cities with Detroit and Philadelphia added give $275,000 in purses alone mid about $2,000,000 still have bout but upon Philadelphia the races in it by the time the - phia meeting closes with Septonibor. 'I'itoro are about one hundred and fitly crack t otters timid pacers going down the 1888 line and the speed averages so far have been very muchi lower than those of previous years. Clovohuid's speed average for tarty heats was 2:101 : , Uullalo's 3:11)1 : ) , and Roehoster's 2:103. : Hartford may equal Rochester or Buffalo average , but the Cleveland murk will unruly lie equaled this year.

Somme drivers excel simply in driving. Splan is the most notable example of this. Others , like Sanders , get along well enough with colts and horses of peculiar disposition , while the majority are , a little less able than Dodge and Hickok , but are known as all round man , and can "flt" train and drive their horses. All are well abla to collect their purses and pool tickets , though soma-and IJiekok is a notable example-have wonderful financial judgmont.
