Lord Charles Beresford is a firm believer in the 'benefits to be derived from physical training. He propene that the Imperial Parliament shall pass a lave requiring that in all municipalities having a population of over 100,000 the future councils under the Local Government bill shall provide a gym- nasium open from six in the morning till ten o'clook at night, with a competent in- structor always in attendance. The gym- nasium is to be free to all xesidents of the municipality, the costs to be met by local taxation. Lord Charles Beresford's idea is that the training supplied at the gymnasium will counteract to some extent the enervat- ing influences of town Lifson the male popu- Hon.

It is aten upon examining this list of stallions whose pedi- grees and country of birth are given, that 116 of these were bred in Engem', and 130 were bred from English horses either in France, Russia, America or Italy. In the last five years 237 stallion's have been pur- chased by the Italian. Government, at a cost of £44,200, or an average of about £186 per head. The total number of mares covered in 1887 view 13,006.—London Live .57NA Journal. Parrings.

GP163,COTIVII AND Nieno.Gevernitele Gnu -powder is slow compared with the now explosivee of the century. There axa If a dozen explaive agent, which (ran give eharge of gunpowder s fair start be a race and beat it. S'irilontes elfayetine says of two of these: Gun -cotton constitutethe best military exploitive knowu, for, wbile its explosive force vastly exceeds thee of gunpowder awl approaches that of nitraglyeerine, it is the Safest and most Mali% explosive we pastas, since it can be stored end transported wet end weile in thin state, though it; may be detonated as deemiliod above, le critinot be exploded in any other way. Ae much as 2,000 pounds' of web compressed guncotton have beeu placed in a fierce bon -tiro, 'svhere It has gradually drled, layer by layer, and been consumed without exploding, Besides, gun -cotton is the only military expletive witiolt can be detonated with certainty when frozen. In calling it a military explonve I mean, of course, for use in torpedoes and Lor' military mining, sod not as a substitute for gunpowder in guns; but it may be, and hat been successfully used as a cbarge for shells firtd from gun vole der &mils both in this country and abroad. &ails contain- ing as much as as 110 pound's ef gun -cotton have been repeatedly fired in isermany. The most prominent ria -al of guncotton for military uses and the beet Explosive for Industrie!, purposes is nitro-glycerine and the mixtures of which it forms a part. This substo.nce was discovered lay Sobrero 1)3,1847, while carrying out a aeries of experiments under Palouse. Its liquid form makes it difficult to store and transport, and permits it to find its way into unexpected places where it constitutes a source of danger. Considerations such as those led Nobel, about 1867, to invent dynamite. The name is now applied to a great variety of nitro- glycerine mixtures, but they all consist of a porous solid absorbent which eucke up the liquid nitro-glycerine by capillarity and holds it in its pores or interstices. The most Inver elute nitrceglyeerine mix- ture is explosive gelatine'also invented by Nobel. This is made byheating nitro-gly- cerine on a water bath and adding to it from 6 to 10 per cent. soluble guncotton. A Hint to Young People. Did you ever see beset or girls eat fast, team doors, rush through, a room, talk land, swing their arms, shake their shoulders, bow as stifelo as if they. were minds, or act as - loose jointed as a Jumping.jack, never offer older people a seat, make up faces, say care - tat things, and use kid grammer and slang This is the land of boys and girls that some- times stand before a looking -glass, and won, er why they are not invited into society. A rope just finished for the Edinburgh cable tramway is 17,000 feet long. Tbis is the longest =spliced cable in use in Great Britain, but for the Melbourne (Australia) tramways' ropes 20,000 and 26,000 feet in 'eagle and without splicing, have been sup- plied. The latter weighs 24 tens. •
