Besides taxation, the principal source of revenue is from the sale of public lands. Federal taxes are of two kinds: 1. Customs duties. Excise or internal revenue duties. Of these, much the greater sum is raised from customs duties. For the year 1889, the total net receipts were $387,050,058. Of this $223,832,741 was derived from customs, and $130,894,434 from the internal revenue duties.

The length of the transepts, each of them four bays long, is 223 feet from north to south, in itself the length of a large church; their width is 93 feet, the height to the summit of the roof, 99 feet, and to the top of the lantern, 180 feet. The transepts, therefore, are unusually prominent, even for an English cathedral, and they have many other unusual features.
Among the most advanced graduate students who do research work in my Harvard laboratory there was no one whose result was more than 275, while, as I said, among all the motormen there was no one whose result was less than 290. The best result reached was by a student who passed through the test in 223 seconds with only 1 mistake, the total therefore being 233.
