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. —Captain B.

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’/ Why not’/ It is always honest to take whin people are willing to pay you for what yon have to sell, is It notV”—New York Times.
