Clarke, of liio Philosophi cal Society of Washington, has made tho following estimate of tho relative quantity of the chief elements in tho composition of the earth, llo aisurncs for the earth's known crust a thickness of ton miles below soa-levol and in cluded the ocean and tho air in his cal culation. Oxygen, 4t).uS per cent. : sili con, 25. ;0; aluminum, 7. 20; iron, 5. OS; calcium, th.M: magnesium, 2.50: sodium, 2.2S; potassium, 2.2?.; hydrogen. 0.94; citanium, 0.P0"; carbon, 0.21; chlorine and bromine, 0.15; phosphorus, 0.0G; manganase, 0.07; sulphur, 0.04; barium, u.03; nitrogen, 0.02; chromium, 0.01; total, 100.00. It is calculated that theso mine elements form OS per cent, of the mass of tho earth. Titanium, which is popularly supposed to bo very rare, is ,;eldom absent from the older rocks, Mr. Clarke says; but having no striking characteristicts and but little commer cial importance, it is easily overlooked. Toledo Blade. Alaska Souvenir.). The French newspapers report that Mr. Cotteau, who lias been on a pleasure trip to Alaska this year, thinks the coast towns of that country are not at all behind fashionable watering-places in tho number of souvenirs the natives offer to the confiding tourist, lie says the Thlinket Indians of Wrangell spend much time watching for the steamer, and when they see its smoko in the distance they at once convert their houses into shops, where both the women and the men offer for sale ail sorts of curiosities that they have manu factured to coax nickels out of tho pockets of travelers.

Tu' object of instrurrjc-rit is to harrnoiiizo the observations of 'lilTerent T.f-rv.ons who arc working together, at diflerr-nt ticies or at -mo time Astronoir.r.r- woil know tiint vo t'v, per sons see exactly alike, by which is meant, for example, no two persons will say that a s-'.ar parses a wire in a tele scope at exactly the same instant. One will record its f.praro)'t ps--ij-O s;ow on true time, while another wit I almost uniformly put its time fast- Observers unconsciously form a habit of seeing objects fast or f-low on true time-, ami the better the. nU-rvnrn tho more steady this error is as compared with It tir.oe. This error the astronomer calls tho per sonal equation of the observer. In amount the personal equation varies from Arl of a .second ef time to ome thn;r it : ere than half asee.,nd for uiiler ent observers, eiti:er fast or slot on true time. ( rrors as tlx se can not bo tolerated at r 1 1 in astronomical obsf.rva t ions for fundamental or original work of a nice kind, but must he in s...me way eliminated h.-l'ore linal reductions can be MtenjpU-c. To accomplish this in one way an in genious machine ha been constructed, which sets in motion an nrtilieial star finite like the appearance of a real star in tho tcie:,copi!. As tPis ntiieinl star passes wires in the machine the observ i r records his observations and the in struiiK nt automatically records the ex act Lime of !be real pa--sa;re of the star ever the same wires. Xow both records are ip-.ile by the id of the cleOtric cur rent, and eousei.iii-Ptl.v a:r- perfectly true. These records are taken automatic ally in ink on an instrument called a chronometer, and hence their differ ences e:m be measured with the utmost acraiuc: ; -''u1 'n v. error oi the observer on true tunc Is satis: ae Lor- i!y known.

A reproduction of the famous Tower of Ikibel, as it stood in the great city oi Pabylort tT-o tbr.usTud yeo.rs ago, ,wull be a feature of tho worm s iair ni Cmcaar. The Smithsonicn Institution at Wash ington, says the St. Louis t.'lobe-Pento-crat. is to supply tho model, which will be constructed under tr" stroe-vision of Dr. IFaubt. ,be distTn'tis'ied Oriental t'choiar, aiid upua sdabs, jjrecteo on precisely the scale of the celebrated original it will ascend in seven dimin-i-.bi-yr stories, impressive from without, while its interior will be a museum ex !ubitin;r Hfe cud am'" ? bo were in the mighty empire of the ancient Assy ria, with the most remarkable assem blage over got to -jet her of art works, books, and all sorts of other euriositiec dujr otit of tho '-aat 'uo'rnd'-;. which arc now ail that i'errU:'h L-i il a by Ion and Nineveh. Already a Was!i in;rton architect Pas completed the plan and elevation of the model, ten feet in he il.t, which will soon be ir readiness for shipping- to the exposition, where it hi-s but to bo copied by enlarge ment. Final action ee !eis matter ha: not yet been taken bp the managemeiv of the fair, but there is und' no doubt that the .--cheme a:- ,'stoou to t i ovo oat- lined will !) carried out. The intention is to construct tic building not of bricks, like the original tower, inasmuch as thut would be too costly, but best moth of iron and according to the 'Is of modern engineering. One disadvantage of ancient ikibyionian architecture was that il was particularly unstable. The houses, pahic; s and tem ples, however magniiicent and ex; on rdvely built, being made of sun-diicd brick, with burned bricks only for fac ing, always tumbled down within at most a century. Such was the fate of the Tower ef Label itself, though it was rebuilt at least once by Nebuchad no:'.?.ar. The city of llabylon, which had 2. 000. 000 inhabitants and covered twice the area of London, stood upon an immense plain of clay very suitable for bricks, and there was no stone of any kind to be had. Myriads of slaves, toil ing under merciless drivers, built tho astonishing public- works executed by the king's of Babylon, just as was the case with the pyramids of Egypt. Ooinu; to I'in:l ttie North I'olo. Dr. Nausea is rapidly preparing foi his expedition to the north pole. He will start from Norway in February next, in the ship of 170 tons burden that has been specially built for him. The vessel is so constructed that she can not bo crushed by the ice, but if nipped the iloes will simply force her out oi the water on the ice. Dr. Nansen is pro visioning his vessel tor five year.-, and a dozen men will go with him to share his good luck or tragic fate. He thinks it will take about three years to drift from the inlands of New Siberia across the polo and down the other side to the southern end of Greenland. The ex pedition, which is carrl"d out by tho aid of the Swedish government and the munificence of Mr. Dickson, will cost over SIGO.OOO. A Handsome Gift. The Alexander family, of which fif teen members have graduated at Princ -ton University, are to have their debt to that institution signalized by the gift of a new buildinr from Mrs. Harriet Crocker Alexander, daughter of the late Charles Crocker, the California millionaire, and wife of Charles B. Alexander, of New York. It is pro posed that the building shall be ue voted to commencement exercises and the higher functions of collegiate life, and bo the lines t thing of tho kind in the countr-r tch Oil human ami hordes and al mimals cured in 30 minutes by Wool 'ord's Sanitary Lotion.
