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.

NO CHANGES IN WEATHER.
Temperature nnd Rainfall ns They

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.

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

Khan even a hardly huntsman like the
early Jlanchu emperors.
There had been threo cities there be

So twice flic mllci of fertile ground
With walls and tovura were girdled round

pnlaces, tho walls, nil date from Mon

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.
