Knapp of the United States commerce court and Labor Commissioner Charles P. Neill took a hand. They insisted that the contending parties should sub mit to arbitration. This was finally agreed to. The engineers were represented In the negotiations with the rail roads by their chief. Warren S. Stone. Two railway presidents who are deeply interested in the outcome of the controversy are James McCrea of the Pennsylvania lines and W. C. Brown of the New York Central.

Brass, as every oae knows, has an awful odor, yet the two things of which brass corrsists. zinc and copper, give no odor whatever in their sepa rate states. This is a problem that has given a great deal of work to scien tists. It is one as yet not entirely solved. To arrive at the general law It baa been found that almost all alloys, or mixtures of two metals, will give an odor, while the metals themselves do not. Brass is not the single example, though probably the most odoriferous. The explanation ls as follows: All substances. Including metals, are al ways giving off small particles of their substance to the air that Is. evaporat ing. Some solids give these off so rap Idly as soon to disappear. Gum cam phor is a conspicuous example. To smell any substance a particle of that substance has to tickle a nerve ending In the nose. If a small particle of cop per, we shall say. does this by itself, no effect is noticed, but if a particle of zinc and a particle of copper 6tr1ke at the same time the effect ls such as to cause a perceptible Impulse to the nerve. The chance for these two to strike at the same time is given only when they are intimately mixed in an alloy. New York Tribune. FAMOUS EPIDEMICS.

In the twelfth century not less than fifteen epidemics of disease and many famines carried off the people of Eng land. The thirteenth century saw twenty plagues and nineteen famines. 1 1 while the fourteenth had a black rec ord of disease. In 134S the "black plague" or "Mack desth," which was brought into the country from the east, caused the death of 100.000 persons in London alone, while in Europe alto gether 25,000,600 people fell victims to Its ravages. In 1485 the "sweating sickness" ap peared la England, causing great de struction of human life. It reappear ed at various intervals for a century thereafter. The last terrible visitation of the plague In England was in 1664-60. by which 100.000 lives were lost in London alone. This epidemic was followed by the great fire of lCOO, which destroyed 16.- ! 000 houses. Including all the most , densely populated portions of the city. ! The rebuilding of London with some 1 regard to sanitary Itfws appears to have put the first check on the epl demic diseases that bad previously i devastated the population. London : Standard.
