Quips and curiosities from The Register comment on war and science

A Denver era miscellany notes that an ounce of essence outruns a gallon of fluid and a sharp wit contrasts a rich man’s strike for viewing bouts with Jeffries and Corbett. It mentions mild 1899 1900 winter hurting some trades and moving pictures in hospitals and Vienna surgical demos for students. Greeley’s war views are parodied in a sharp exchange about women and civil conflict.

Neighbors clash over inches of airspace and overhangs

A landowner forced a neighbor to tear down a four story block that overreached six inches into the next lot. A separate dispute centers on five inches of space three hundred feet above the sidewalk. The suit claims a cornice projects five inches over another roof and seeks damages. Dr Hale’s advice is challenged by Thackeray’s irony on neighborly obstruction.

Vision of a frozen world with liquid air oceans

Sir John Murray described a distant future when Earth cools to extreme lows like those from Dewar experiments. Oceans and atmosphere vanish into rock, forming solid crust, while a new sea of liquid air about forty feet deep rolls over the surface and life as we know it ends.

Pacific coastal peoples hold diverse Indian language stocks

Dr Thomas Wilson of the United States National Museum notes a fringe between the coast range and the Pacific contains more Indian language families than the rest of North America combined. He observes distinct Pacific coast arrowheads and spearheads and contrasts the absence of pottery with notable basketry in California. He regards the Calaveras skull as a genuine Pacific slope relic.

Fuseli and Northcote Share Wit Over Artworks

The eminent painter Fuseli teased Northcote about Judgments of Solomon and Hercules drawing an arrow at Pluto. Northcote praised the cleverness but doubted the outcome. Fuseli insisted the arrow would strike, muttering he would make it hit him by Jupiter.

Financial Independence and the Republican Money Policy

The piece argues that Republicans have achieved financial independence for the United States by adopting the Dingley tariff and a stable money standard. It cites export records for February 1900, notes increased per capita monetary circulation, and highlights a $25 million loan to Russia as evidence of a strong, self-reliant economy benefiting labor and American industry.

Methodists Favor Expansion Plan Across Nation

The Philadelphia conference backed expansion policy of the national administration approving a volunteer call for evangelical work in the Philippines. The report also notes wage rises for about 20,000 workmen and denounces trusts as part of a conspiracy against the producing classes.

Senate backs Pacific cable bill and other Washington items

The Senate committee on naval affairs reports the Pacific cable bill authorizing a present link to Honolulu with future expansion. The House reports bills on desert land act land payments, and currency reforms advance, including notes to retire silver and expand bullion purchases. A Puerto Rican appropriation compromise and a peace committee move on tax provisions are noted amid broader fiscal and defense debates.
