Meteorite Explosions
The great majority of people at some
period of their lives have seen a meteorite .
full. or heard the sharp explosion from its j
lumsage through the atmosphere. The
query as to the nature of these explosions
has led to a unique discussion in I‘Astro-
name concerning them. In this it is
shown quite conclusively that. the result
of ii meteorite passing through the air is
exactly analogous to that of a lightning
flash. The electric current meets with;
resistance from the air. which is, mere
fore highly heated find expanded. This
column of heated air is frequently several
miles in length. and as the dumion of 3
the flash is not. the millionth of a second,
the contraction of this air. column is prac-
tically instantaneous throughout its en-
tire length, and the thunder produced by
the collision of the particles bursts forth
at once from the whole column. Pre-
cisely the same results follow when any
projectile is driven through the atm0~
sphere. ' The bullet whistles or “sing,"
and the shell “screams“ If a cannon.
ball could be projected with a velocity of
[00.000 yards per second it. would . no
longer whistle, but would thunder. At
the same time, owing to the resistance, it

The Gulf Stream‘s Warmth.
The fact is well understood. of course.
that Great Britain and other parts of
northwestern Europe owe. much. in the
matter of climate and temperature. to the
warming influence of the Gulf Stream.
The extent of the effect. which is thus
produced. according to the calculations
made by Dr. (‘rolL almost exceed belief.
or even comprehension. in a mathematb
cal sense. He has found, by careful
scientific estimate, that the amount ol
heat conveyed northward in the Atlantic
by this stream is equivalent. to 7147‘..-
050,000,000.000.000 foot pounds of en-
ergy per day, which is equal to all the
heat received by 1.560.935 square miles
at the equator. and more heat than is
conveyed by all the air currents—and so
positive is its climatic effect. and so far
reaching. that, according to Dr. Croll,
the heat of the Arctic seas and North
Atlantic would be diminished to that. im~
mense extent. by the stoppage or diversion
of the great. ocean river.

Be Careful of Your Signature.
A gentleman of wealth, while tactic-

upon a blank slip of paper and allowed it
to lie on hisdesk. It attracted the at
tention of a neighbor. who, fora joke.
filled the space above the signature in the
form of a promissory note. and a. few days
afterward the joking neighbor presented

that “rats always leaves sinking shi "
is perfectly true. If. however. the ship
be \\ ater—tiqht they will continue in-
creasing. It has brrn told by M. Dc St.

smoked between decks. and six hampers
were. for some time. tilled every day with
the nits that had thus been killed. “'hen

It appeurs that (rats. like birds, fisi,

abode by want of food or the need of I

tenance for their young. and often by
their fear of man. A gentleman‘s house

At another time :i imp was set at night
in a house where hits were numerousmnd
in the morning the imp was found sprung,
with a long tail inside. Its owner had
vanished. and. perhaps. after relating his
narrow escape. and how he had lost his

friends and left the house forever.
The rat. though naturally a savage
creature. is capable of being tamed aid
made obedient to man‘s will. Some of
the Japanese tame rats. teach them to
