A Cime Where I* Was More Reliable
Thun n Sailor’s Optic,
Mr. N. Chevalier, the well known
artist who nccompatjlod the late Duke
of Edinburgh on. many of his travels,
was once going from Dunedin to
Lyttelton, New Zealand, by steamer.
Anxious to catch the earliest glimpse
of tlie const he went on deck at dawn
and was nTanned to see that the vessel
was heading sttaight on to the hind
Calling the oliicer’s attention to tin
fact, lie was told that it was only n
fog hank. Tbe artist maintained his
point, but tlie seeomt officer looked
and confirmed bis mate.
The artist then said: “Weil, gentle
men, l will back my artist’s eye
against your sailor’s eye. and 1 s:i>
that what you mistake for n fog bank
ts n low range of hills, and there Is i:
range of mountains appearing above
them.”
But he was only laughed at. until
the captain coming on deck found In
the growing light that the artist was
right and the seamen wrong. The ves
sel was out of Its course, and there
was only just time to avert disaster
The Ik Imsmnu was dismissed In ills
grace and the course given to the new
steersman, but the vessel's head still
pointed landward—the compass was all
wrong.
The cause was discovered later. A
commercial traveler had brought a box
of magnets on board and diqxwited
them In a stern cabin, causing wbui
limited number of - liov.-e- j might have been a fatal deflection of
the compass.
To return to the question of Inter
pretation. tlie artist was dealing with
the appearances which Ids eye was
trained to see and bis mind to Inter
pret. A speck on the horizon might
; have remained a mere speck to him
j long after the sailors bad Interpreted
the speck Into a vessel of definite rig.
There can be little doubt that tbe
; trained eye Is aeeouipuuied by a sort
i of mental seeing, an Instinct outrun
ning optics.
.4 Tlitvry as to the tlfljln ««<1 Cnnse
of the Rttlf null Ollier Streams—Are
They the Product of Immense Suh-
■r.nrlne Geysersf
For more than a ceutury scientists
and philosophers have been vainly try
ing to discover the origin aud cuttse ol
the mysterious current lu the Atlantic
ocean called the gulf stream. Why so
called Is not apparent, as nothing lu
the gulf of Mexico Is la Its coin posit leu.
There hove been many theories, which
have been abandoned, some,perfectly
absurd, such ns Its being caused by the
earth In Its revolution on lt,s axis, for
if It had the power to draw this stream
at the rnte of tive miles an hour from
the const of Florida It would draw all
the water from the east eousts of
North and South America at the same
Velocity. The prevailing theory Is that
the northeast trade winds drive a ear
rent Into the Caribbean sea and. allied
by the feeble equatorial stream, heap
tip the water U> <he gulf of Mexico,
thence rushing around the south of
Florida from the source of the gulf
stream. But there is no such a heap
ing of the waters In that gulf. The
waters there are sluggish, aud there Is
no perceptible current leading toward
the gulf stream or anywhere else.
’’’his theory has been accepted for
warn of a better, but those who favof
It ate not entirely satisfied with It. The
gulf stream Is an Independent body ot
water, having no connection with the
water around or behind the point
where It emerges. It Is wtermer and
of a deeper blue than the surrounding
sens and gushes forth from the start
ing point off Cape Sable at the rate ot
from live to six Uuots an hour, with
a temperature of about DU degrees,
lessening gradually ns' It proceeds on
its Journey of thousands of miles across
tbe Atlantic ocean, warming the west
ern shores of Europe.
Having Reen the fallacy of the the
ories concerning the gulf stream, we
will turn our attention to the great Pn
elfle current. Identical lu all respects
with Its sister current of tlie Atlantic
and concerning which there are no the-
»orles to contend with.
It starts spontaneously front a spot a
few miles from the south end of the
Island of Formosa, In the Banshee
channel, following the coast of For
mosa northeasterly, past Httd through
the Loochoo Islands, sklrtiug the coast
of Japan: thence terns eastward on ttL
long Journey across the wide Pacific,
warming the const of America from
Puget sound to 'Mexico. Its dark blue
waters are in striking contrast to the
surrorinjlfog seas, giving It the name of
Mu era Knur, or black water. It Is nn
Independent stream whore uo combina
tion of winds or currents can possibly
'•ahse the mighty rush of warm blue
water with a velocity of from Ove to
.tix knots nn Hour from tlie start.
In Its characteristics of heat, color
and direction It resembles the gull
dream In every particular, and tlie
origin of the two streams must be the
■pine, whatever they may he. which I
shall entlenvor to show, later on. There
is another ocean cucc«i«t similar In all
respects to the other two. with the ex
ception that It r.itqs In nn exactly op
positc direction, Starting front the vi
cinity cf the south end of the island of
MadagnAcc:’, It runs southwesterly
around the Cape of Good Hope, where
Ht dlt.mppeara cfT Cape Lngullns. As a
’current, probably part of It Is diverted
into a steady set.of Hie eastern current,
caused by tlie prevailing westerly
Winds In that region. No scientists, so
far an I am aware, have attempted to
icecuat for tills current. Having now
proved beyond refutation that all the
ories tulvqnced ns to the cause of ocean
currents are groundless. remains to
be proved what the true cause Is.
It must lie admitted that the currents
have a similar origin, as they are Iden
tical In every respect as regards color,
heal and velocity, springing forth In
the same manner spontaneously from
the earth In some mysterious way.
There Is no place on the surface of the
earth where the water can he heated
to furnish the bent contained In these
streams that gusli forth from the
depths of the sen: consequently the
forces must lie subterranean mid ran
only be accounted for by large birdies
of clear, blue water front' the ocean
forcing Its way Into the deplhs of the
earth under Its crust, where it brrrows
a channel, of Its own to the surface
again, having received It* warmth on
the way by contact with the Internal
beat of yie lower regions of tbe earth,
forced on by continual pressure from
behind.
Thai there are orifices tu the earth’s
crust cannot be denied, also what be
comes of tbe vast volume ot water that
eannoj lie computed which Is constant
ly running at the rate of from four to
six knots nn hour front the Atlantic
ocean, through tin* strait of Gibraltar
into the Mediterranean ses. The .nu
merous rivers, too. are continually
flowing In. and yet the sea remains at
die same level. Evaporation cannot
I coon til for It. for what Is era penned
* forme-J Into clouds and Is precipitin
■I cga;:i into tin’ si a by the medium of
storuia and frequent ruins.
The water must enter toe earth rrotn
tht* ocean through these apertures on
an tbcllne as It gushes forth In these
three mighty currents nud cannot tie
discovered by soundings: consequently
these three mighty currents are noth
ing niot’e or less than immense geysers.

Ltmch Prices nnd Dinner Prices.
Any one wlio will take the troul.de tc*
compare the lunch and dinner menu
cards of sotne of the lending restau
rants of New York will make a rather
surprising discovery, lie will uscerttrln
that the prices cn many dishes are cut
on the dinner card from lb cents to 20
cents. ,
A gentleman whose curiosity was
aroused by this singular piaetlce to the
extent that he went to the head waiter
for a mor* satisfactory reason than the.
table waiter could advance was given
this explanation:
"You see,” said the waiter, “the gen
erality of men don’t care for a heavy
lunch. One dish and n gin’s of milk or
a cup of coffee, with bread and butter,
are sufficient for them; consequently to
prevent them from getting off too
cheap we have to put up the price of
single dishes. At d.liner time It is dif
ferent. A man wants a number of dish
es for dinner, and so we can afford to
make our meats and flsh cheaper.”
"But do you tliluk that Is exactly”—

honest to take whin people are willing
to pay you for what yon have to sell, is
