WITH BREATH AND STEAM. How a Glass Blower Won a Prize After Mnny Had Tailed. From tho You ,'s Companion. In one of the Kreat squares of St. PeteisburK htands a magnificent col umn 150 feet in height, erected to com memorate the reign of the czar, Alex ander I, the ally and afterward the rival of Napoleon. On one occasion of a public celebiatlon tho present czar wished to have the great shaft Illum inated, and round lamps of an enor mous size weie ordered from a lead ing glass manufactory. After to or throe experiments the workmen discovered to their conster nation that It seemed Impossible to blow- the bulbs so large by tho force of human breath. The blowers blew till they were utterly exhausted, but tho bulbs remained far below the re quired size. A handsome price vraH offered to the first successful lower, and the men re newed their efforts, but to no purpose. At last a big fellow, shaped like a bairel, stepped forward and quietly re marked that he was sure he could do the trick. The crowd laughed good humoredly, but the man merely said: "I want to rinse my mouth; It's dry." They gave him a cup of water. He rinsed his mouth, taking plenty of time, and then applied his lips to tho tube. Slowly and steadily the ball of glass grew. Soon It reached tho dimension? of Its nearest rival. Then It became bigger, bigger, until It approached the required size. Then It attained It. Then It passed It. "Stop, stop'" cried tho crowd. "It's getting too big." nnd the foreman added, "How did you do It?" "Where Is my money?" said the man, by way of reply. When he felt the rubles in his palm, an expression of genial satisfaction overspread his rough features. "Why, It's easy!" said he, and then he explained how he had retained some of the water In his mouth, how he hal gradually blown It Into the molten ball, nnd how the expanding steam had In stantly come to his assistance.

Temperature nnd Rainfall ns They Were Thousands of Years Ago. From Popular Science. We find the "early" and the "later" rain today In Palestine precisely as de scribed 3500 years ago. "Jordan over flows all Its banks" In February today exactly as it did In Joshua's tlmn, thirty-three centuries ago. Plants taken fiom mummy cases In Egypt, which must have been gathered more than 5000 years since, are practically of tho same size and have the same appearance as those growing today. Records of vintages In France for over 700 years show practically the same dates today. Actual observations of rainfall for over 200 yeais at St. Pe tersburg show no change appreciable to us, though, of course, the earliest observations were extremely crude and somewhat unreliable. Facts of this kind might be adduced to All a small volume. On the other hand, we have records of most extraordinarily cold weather In ancient times. One winter the light wine In Franco froze. Another winter the River Po froze over so as to bear teams (an unheard-of phenomenon to day). In this Journal for Juno It Is stated that "Parnassus and Socrnte, now free from snow, were covered with It In classic antiquity." Also, "the name Greenland, which strikes us ns so Mngulaily Inappropriate, was not inapplicable at the time It was named, In the fourteenth century." It Is entirely probable that descrip tions of the cold In nnclent times were much exaggerated. Parnassujt and Socrate have snow at times, arid In earlier days, when protection against cold and snow was much less than now, a little snow would go a long way. The earllpr voyagers from Iceland, more than 1,000 yeais ago, leavlnu a land of almost perpetual Ice and snow, and reaching a land In the summer with Its beautiful green color to their unnccustomed eyes, would very nat urally give the nnme of Greenland to It. In tho summer time, It Is said, Greenland presents a most beautiful green near the Danish settlements to this day. Our oldest Inhabitants, who have been wont to describe the terrlblo cold and deep snows of their boyhood davs as Incomparably greater than anything which does or can occur today, com pletely lost their reckoning In tho lat winter when reading of a ship that had sunk In New York harbor by weight of the ice upon it: also, that Wash ington had thirty-four Inches of snow on a level, and the lowest tempera ture ever noted In that fair city. A careful study will show no appreciable change In the climate of this earth since the early historic times. Of course nothing here adduced touches climatic changes In glacial times or In pre historic times, which changes have been established beyond question. THE CHINESE CAPITAL.

PoUln Is by first intention a permanent T.u tar encampment; a fortified irurilMiu of nomad bannormen hunoundlnir Pat ching, the northern palace of the con quering Khan of khans. Tho Tartar julcr of four hundred millions of sub ject Chinese Is closely snuiouudeil by Ills faithful Mnnehu clansmen fiom beyond the grent wall, who scorn and hato nnd setietly four the mashes of Chinese more than any outer enemy; who have thiown themselves Into the arni3 of Russia tluough ftar of the Chinese; who have bargained that Itussla shall send soldiers to their aid when needed, who have held back anil turned back the wheels of progiess, with a certain pieiclenco that tho new order would iclegate them to poverty and extinction. Evciy Jlanchu Is borno on the rolls as a baiintinian, nnd receives his stipend, even If ho never bends a bow or hulls a stone In mllltaiy dtlll. But the Manchu b.in nernien aie no longer the fietco wai ilors their ancestois weie, nor their Khan even a hardly huntsman like the early Jlanchu emperors. There had been threo cities there be fore Kublal Khan did his 'stately plensure-domo deciee,' and So twice flic mllci of fertile ground With walls and tovura were girdled round to maktt tho splendid capltat Marco Pole first described. The plan, tho pnlaces, tho walls, nil date from Mon gol times, tho thirteenth century. The same quaint mllltaiy customs of the middle ages ate observed. The bol dlers are drilled In archery and quoits, and tho nine city gates are clanged to at sunset, shutting Chinese subjects out In a separate city by themselves, as If their conquest were Just accomplished.
