A NAKED EYE SUNSPOT. It Can be Clearly SeenThrough Darkened Glass. Thougt spots on the sun of sufficient dimen- sions to he seen with the naked eye are by no means unknown, they are sufficiently rare to be invested with considerable interest when they make their appearance. One such is now visible, and may be seen within the next day or two by the readers of the "Western Mail," if they care to make the experiment. The spot may be easily and pleasantly noted when the sun is close to the horizon and obscured by its vapours; at any other time a smoked or other- wise darkened glass should be brought into requisition. The smaller circle in the accom- panying illustration Naked Eye Sunspots. I shows the sun as seen with the unaided eye at a quarter to two on Thursday afternoon. The larger circle represents the sun at the same time as seen in a small achromatic armed with an eye-piece of low magnifying power. The smaller spots (of course, invisible to the naked eye) form, with the great one, a rough figure of a sickle, and re-call the group of stars of that name in the constellation Leo. When it is recollected that the sun's diameter is con- siderably more than 800,000 miles, and that the smallest spot in the diagram is much larger than our earth, some idea may be gained of the size of the spot we are now discussing, small though it may appear to unassisted vision.

OVERHEAD WIRES. A Matter Which Requires Attention at Cardiff. Another of the inconveniences of over- head telegraph and telephone wires was in- stanced on Thursday at Cardiff. The Fire Brigade were engaged in practice witn the new escape, and in order to test its capabilities took it to the Westgate-st.reet side of the Royal Hotel. During the run down Westgate- street the escape had to be lowered several times to allow it to pass under wires stretched across the road. The wires at this point run parallel with the houses on the park side of Weatgate-etreet, and if a fire occurred there and the escape was needed the wires would have to be cut away before it could be placed against the wall of the house. This is a matter which the wafc^h committee should inquire into.. for a verv serious delay might be caused and loss of life ensue.

STRIKE IS PROBABLE. Taff Vale Railway Men to Hold a Mass Meeting First. The employes of the Taff Vale Railway Com- pany, dissatisfied with the attitude of the directors in refusing to receive representations from the workmen's committee, have, it is understood, decided to hold & mass meeting with a view of coming out on strike. In the event of a strike, the Taff may probably be joined by those on the Barry Railway, the difficulty being one of principle—the right of labour to a due recognition of their accredited representatives. Mr. Jabez Balfour States that he Left England by Special Request J

SPURGEON'S SUCCESSOR. More Trouble Amongst the Tabernacle Congregation. Though the term of ministry accorded to Mr. > Thomas Spurgeon at the Metropolitan Tabernacle I has but half expired, that section of the eongre- gation which has throughout advoeated Dr. Pierson as the most suitable successor to the late pastor is already privately canvassing for votes in favour of the popular American < preacher. That there is likely to be a eon. siderabie amount of dissension among the mem- bers of the congregation when the matter is fnlly discussed is evident from the fact that, contrary to all previous action in the matter of controlling the Church, the deacons have not been re-elected. It is understood that Dr. Pierson has been baptised, and that, conse- quently, removes a difficulty which has hitherto stood in the way of his election to the Taber- nacle puIpiL. A special meeting, to wuich only members of the Church will be admitted, has been called for March 21, when the matter will be finally discussed.

FOR A PURSE OF .£25. Batcher Knocks WCarthy Out in Five Rounds at Aberdare. On Thursday night a giove contest for a purse of JS25 and side stakes took place at Patsy Perkins's booth, Aberdare, between Pawdy M'Carthy and Sam. Butcher. Butcher was seconded by T. James and D. St. John, O'Brien and Concannon being in the corner bSind 'M'Ca.rthy. Mr. J. Weeteray was referee. There were about 400 people present. In the first round both men went at it hammer and tongs, and the result of a haid-focght round was slightly in favour of Butcher. Round 2 witnessed another hard bout. McCarthy was very wild at the outset, but Butcher fought cautiously, evidently with the hope of a knock- out blow. Towards the close, of the round Butcher got home a regular rib-stinger, with the result that M'Carthy went to the boards. The two time-keepers, however, disagreed over .ti-. ti c.' v-ii* -i*va ?"•> ,k-srn, 7/lU the referee., therefore, ordered them to fight on. Round 5 saw M'Carthy come up very fresh, and the opening stages were, perhaps, a trifle in his favour. Towards the dose, however, Buteher out-manceuvred him,, the round finishing fairly even. Round 4 was of a rough-and-tumble. character, a lot of sharp in-fighting taking place. Of this Butcher had slightly the best unta just towards the close, when McCarthy rallied and rushed at his opponent, fighting him round the ring, and at the finish on to the ropes. Round 5 and last, was the best of the bouts fought. It was give and take from start to finish, both men taking a lot of severe punish- ment. Butcher was slightly the stronger, throughout, and eventually M'Oarthy became so exhausted that he gave in, Butcher tirae winning the fight. J. O'Brien v. Tow James. After the fight a match was made between I John O'Brien and Tom James for JBSO aside, to box in two months from the signing of I articles. A deposit was made on each side. I WITHOUT WIPES. Practical Test of Electric Signalling at Lavernock Point. In his paper on "Electric Signalling Without Wires," read before the Society of Arts on Wednesday evening, Mr. W. H. Preece, F.R.S.. remarked that the experiments which had been carried out up to 1889 showed the theoretical possibility of signalling without wires. In 1886 experiment.s were made on parallel lines four miles and a half apart be- tween Bristol and Gloucester, where there were no intermediate conductors to vitiate the results. Moreover, the circuits used were metallic throughout. Under these circumstances, only weak disturbances were detected, though when the experiments were repeated in 1889 in the light of experienoe more success was obtained. I In 1892 a practical test was made in the Bristol Channel. On Lavernock Point, near Cardiff, a copper wire 1,267 yards long was hung on poles, the circuit being completed by earth. On the sands at low-water mark, 600 yards from t|iis circuit, and parallel to it, two covered copper wires and one bare oncv were laid down, their ends being buried deep in sand. On the Flat Holm, 3'1 miles away. another covered wire 600 yards long was laid down. On the f-hore an alternating current (which was controlled by a Morse key) with a fre- quency of 192, a voltage of 150, and of any desirable strength up to fifteen amperes was sent through the primary cironit. The signals received on the Flat Holm on the secondary circuit produced sound and were read on a pair of telephones. By this means messages were successfully sent. The same method Avas tried with another island—the Steep Holm, 5'35 miles away—but was scarcely successful. Distur- bances were, indeed, perceptible, but the sig- nals conld not be read. Such experiments, in which careful precautions were taken to elimi- nate the effects of earth-currents, proved the I possibility of signalling between England and France without any wires being carried across the Channel. But the e*j)ense would not be Tiegligeable, for at Lavernock Point a two- horse" power engine was required to get results ► over three or fo>w miles.

Shoplifting as an Art. HOW IT IS PRACTISED AND BY WHOM. A Big London Tradesman Tells of Experiences Gathered in His Place of Business. There are a few professions which flourli exceedingly even in "days like these. One of them is the fine art of shop-lifting. Mr. William Whiteley, of London, who has the largest stage for actors of this kind, and ajtt (vide the police-court reports) a large and varied experience of the genus shop-lifter, was good enough to give us (says the "Westminster Gazette") some plain and interesting facts oon cerning the art and its followers. "Is shop-lifting on the increase?" the press man asked. "I am afraid it is," MI. Whiteley said." Ant there is no doubt about its being made a verj fin* art. It is not poor people who do it, but women of the m^Jdle and upper classes. Some time ago a lady used to drive up to us in a brougham, and every time she had been some articles were missing. But she did it- so cleverly it was impossible to catch her at it. At last she was surprised when she was stowing away a needle-case of the value of 10 £ .d I dare say she found it terribly annoy- ing that such a cheap thing should have got her into such trouble. But so it was. I asked her into my counting-house, and there, in the presence of a detective, I charged her with the theft. She made a terrible ado, saii this wicked charge should be my ruin, kc. "'But kindly allow us to see what there it in that bag of yours,' I urged. You can easily prove your innocence if it does not contain the missing needle-case, which my young man maintains you put into the bag.' She said it was an insult, and repeated that this should be my ruin. In the end we had to take her to the pcikje-stafcion, where she was searched by a. female seareher. The needle-case was' found. We knew she had taken many more valuable things, but we had no proofs. Her case came on at the Old Bailey she had Mr. Montagu Williams to defend her, but it was no good. She was convicted. I need not add that we had no further visits from that lady." "But how do they do it?"—"One of their commonest tricks is to have several large pockets in their dress into which they can push things easily without being observed. Very often they wear long. loose cloaks, such as you see sick nurses wear, and, of oourse, they can hide things easily under these. Soma- j times they wear double cloaks, and, in case a suspicion falls on them, they open the upper, one, spying, 'But itf I have hidden anything. under my cloak. show it me. Surely you could see at once.' Moat of our shop-lifting ladies 'hunt in couples.' One goes to the counter and engages the attendant's services; the second sisnda behind her aocomplioe. While the attendant has turned his or her back to get something, the article is swiftly and dexterously whipped off the counter into the lady's capacious receptacle. "Why do you always epeak of women as shop-lifters, Mr. Whilteleyl? Are there no male artists of this class?"—"Yes, there are, but the women are the chief offenders. FOol every man we catch at it we catch at least 3UO women. Naturally womta ULt. finery; why sbouldmt theyi And some of them, if- they cannot get it by fair means, they get Wi by ford. "By the way, when we swpeot a person of shop-lifting we always allow her to ge* off the premises before we say anything; because, if she were taken in the place, she would, of course, say she was going back to the depart- ment to pay. Once she is outside we jmt point out to her, quite pofitely, that she has forgotten to pay for such an article, and ask her to turn back and rectify her mistake. If she is wise enough to do so. then, of course, we are ohiigel to let her off. But if she denies having the article, we send for a detective and have her seMdMd. Yes; we prosecute in very case. There is a kind of association between the large West-end shops, the mem- bers of which pledge themselves to prosecute in every case of shop-lifting." "Don't people plead that they are kiepto- maniacs when taken like this?"—"Of course they do. All thieves who belong to the middle olaeee6 plead kleptomania, when caught. There never was a poor man or woman who had stofcn anything and then gave the klepto- mania excuse. Kleptomania does exist, but it is a rare thing. In all my experience-and I assure you I have had a good deal in this matter-I have only come across a single case of kleptomania. It was that of an elderly gentleman, a. military man. He came to us very frequently, bought things in various de- partments, and whenever he bought, there he also managed to slip into his pocket a pair of gloves, stockings, a necktie, or something <-f the sort. His friends, however, had warned us beforehand, and he was always closely watched as he went about by one of our young men. Then, when the bills were presented to him, the 'lifted' article was included in it, and he always paid for it." "Before you catch a shoplifter in the act I suppose you can do nothing, though you may suspect him?"—'Well, whatever we do has to be done very carefully. For instance, a lady used to drive up here very frequently,. buying things in ever so many departments, but always «mall things which did not amount to much. We were perfectly positive that she stele thing* every time she caaie, but she was so clever we could never provr) anything. One day, how- ever, I told one of my people to let me know when she came again. Site had jest bowgflit some glove-s, when I asked her to wait a moment. I re tumoo the money to her, put the gloves bwk, and said, 'Now, madam, let me advise you to go home, and not to come into this place again. I know perfectly well why you are htre. i also know that it would not be worth jour while to drive all the dis- tance from yonir house to Westbowrne Grove to buy things v hieh never amount to more than five shillings if you had not-some special object The best advice I can give you is to go away quietly, and not let us see you any more.' She took that advice. "Curiously enough we have not infrequently sent to us snail sums of conscience money, with notes, ia which people—anonymously, 01 course—say that on such and such a date they have taken goods away, for which they havt not paid. and which, they believe, amount te so and so much. You see there are even shop lifters with a rag of a conscience left."

A New Underwater Vessel. Mr. ;George Saatamarina, son of the Spanish Consul at Newcastle, has, says the Newcastle Chronicle, designed plans for a new underwater vessel which might be either a gun- boat or an ordinary cargo steamer. One of the special features of the vessel is that it is to have four propellers—two twin screws, th,tt is, two at the stem and two at the stern. These pro- af tl,, Jr-, stem two 9s pellers are so designed as to afford what it called perpetual motion. The masts and funnels of the vessel are telescopic., and the machinery also might be laid flat on deck.
