It is strange indeed, that we should be so intimately connected, so closely associated with that invisible elastic fluid which completely globe,and still have such a limited knowledge, of its phenom-ena; still from the light given us by scientifical nun, we need not be en-tirely ignorant upon this subject. Formerly the name "Air" was given to all gaseous substances: thus Priestlev the irreat physicist-spo- ke of what we now call oxygen, as air,' nitrogen as 'phlogisticated air,' hydrogen as inflaimable air,' and carbonic acid gas,' as fixed air.' The name is now ordinarily re-stricted to what is more accurately called atmospheric air, the air we breathe. COMPOSITION OF AIR. Air is not a chemical mixture, one that cannot be seperated, but it is a mechanical mixture; the compo-nent parts 1 e'ng by tvolume, 20.96 percent, oxygen, 79 per cent nitro-gen, and .04 per cent, carbon diox-ide. At all times it contains a va-riable quantity of water, and minute particles of dust, even at a great dis-tance from the earth's crust. In mass it is about 1,200,000 of the earth itself. Its weight as com-pared with water is about 8ij.67times liehter. That the air has weight may be easily proves by taking a globe or some light vessel, and by means of an air pump force all of the air out of it, when weighed it will be found to be ligh.er than it was before. Or, take a tube, close at one end, and remove from it all the air, this pro ducing almost a perfect vacuum, place the end that may be opened into a barrel of water, the water will immediately rush in and fill up the vacancy, if at sea level it will raise to a height of 34 feet. Mercury will ascend to a height of 30 in.,and as a tube of that length is not so cumbersome as one of 34 feet, the mercurial barometer is the most gen-eral instrument tor weighing or test-ing the pressure of the atmosphere. The extent of the atmosphere can-not be definitely stated but, for practical purposes two hundred miles may be assumed as an extreme limit. It must be observed too that the distance through the atmos phere is not equal in different eleva-tions, thui if you ascend a high mountain, the pressure will be less that, at sea level, and at the height of 3.4 miles half of the atmosphere is left below. Beyond forty miles the amount remaining would be too small to effect the sun's rays. If t,he atmosphere were of uniform density and as loosely compressed as that at sea l$vel, its height would only be about five miles. The high-est peaks of the Himalays would pierce entirely tkrough it. The variation of the atmospheric pressure is explained as follows: If you take particles that are elas-tic and pile them one upon another to a great height, the lower ones will be very much compressed, owing to the weight placed upon them. Just so with the atmosphere, it is supposed to be made up of these small elastic particles, all of which arc so very mobile that they pass out of the way without our realiza-tion. USE OF AIR AND ATMOSPHERE. To man the most important sub-stance of life. The oxygen contain ed in it feeds, nourishes and stimu-lates the body. The nitrogen serves as water to the alcohol drinker, it reduces the stimulant that it may not be too strong for the system. Mechanical use of air as a moving power. Compressed air is some-times used with great advantage in mines and tunnels where steam pow-er is inconvenient. As in the con-struction of the Mont Cenius tun-nel. His was first compressed by water power then carried through pipes into the heart of the mountain to work the boring machinery etc. In short we may say the condition of the weather, solar and terrestrial radiation, the disintegration of rorks, animal and vegetable life, twilight and the propagation of sound de-pend to a very great extent on the condition of the atmosphere. B. F. Luki. Editorial Notes. Judging from his letter in answer to Mr. lilaine's telegram Governor Nicholls, of Louisiana, is a better diplomat than the Secretary of State. There is a suspicion that er Reed has gone to Europe for the purpose of coaching the young Emperor of Germany in the "Czar act." We hear a good deal about what the negro needs. Lie needs to have the blatant demagogues of the John M. Langston stripe muzzled worse than he does anything else. The more that is learned of the characters of the men recently kill-ed at New Orleans the feebler be-comes the objection to their killing. There is no room for professional murders in this country, large as it it. Eviv little Hawaii is disposed to bluff Mr. Blaine in to granting it extraordinary trade favors by threatening to make a reciprocity treaty with Canada. That shows how the "vigorous foreign policy" impresses foreigners. The sugar trust is doing a bit of juggling with the tariff law, which is not creditable to the law or the men composing the trust, but it is no more than what was predicted by long-heade- d democrats when the sugar bounty was added to the tariff bill. Did McKinley speak sarcastically when he recent-ly told a New England audience that Mr. Harrison was as good a presi-- 1 dent as we have had in years? There 1 is a suspicion ttaar ty tniktake h neglected to have the word "years" preceded by "two. The negroes are making things quite lively for Mr. Benjamin Har-rison; they want representation in the management of the World's Fair, and they want a member of their race made judge of the U. S. Circuit Court. While they are about it they should also demand a place upon the next republican ticket. They are just as likely to get one as the other. Gov. Hogg, of Texas, is so strict in hit idea of the rights of the sever-al states composing the Union that he has vetoed a bill passed by the legislature authorizing the accep-tance of the bounty of s cents per pound provided in the McKinley bill, for sugar produced upon the farm owned by the state and oper-ated with convict labor. Gov. Hogg is right, the bounty system, what-ever applied to, is and The Indian question will not down. It is stated that the Sioux are again suffering from short ration and fears of another outbreak are spreading. Why the Indian bureau of this government cannot be run on common sense, business principles is one of the connundrums of the time. Why make, promises to the delegation of Indians that from time to time go to Washington, unless it is intended to keep them? The Indians should be properly taken care of or they should be left to themselves. Enough money is appropriated exery year to provide well for those Indians not in a po-sition to care for themselves, but so many fancy salaries are paid from that fund and so much of it is stolen by dishonest officials and contract ors that the red man is anything else but well taken care of. Until there is a radical change of our treatment of the Indians occasional outbreaks accompanied by bloodshed may be expected, and as long as the repub-lican party is in control of the na-tional goyenaent there will be no change. |
