Abstract: 15,225. Boult, A. J., [Beaufils, V.]. July 11. Billiards.-Relates to cues and to miniature apparatus for playing billiards while sitting down. The small table A is placed upon an ordinary table, and is levelled by screw feet, levels C being fixed in two of the cushion rails. The games are scored by markers G or E. Each of the former consists of a small cylinder K, having numbers on its periphery and mounted upon a spindle I rotated by a milled knob H, the cylinder being prevented from rotating backwards by a spring pawl D. It exhibits one number at a time through an opening in the plate L. Each of the latter consists of a circular counting-device E, with a clip F for chalk at its centre, and a flat ring z having a knob which the player can turn over a series of numbers or points z<2>. Small spring cues are used, in one form of which the rod carrying the tip is operated by a spiral spring which is released by a spring push. In the other form, a piston moves within the butt end, and is attached to the rod carrying the tip. The piston having been forced down, the rod is held and released by a spring trigger. In the latter case, the distance to which the piston is forced down and held can be varied. This cue can be used with ordinary full-sized tables.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the Manufacture of Cube or Loaf Sugar.
Inventor: THOMPSON WILLIAM PHILLIPS
Filed: 1898-10-04
Granted: 1898-11-12
Abstract: 20,900. Thompson, W. P., [Koch, K.]. Oct. 4. Refining sugar.-For the production of loaf sugar, finely-ground and sieved raw sugar is partially dissolved by means of water in a pan or defecator provided with an agitator, steam jacket, and means for cooling. The stirring-apparatus is alternately started and stopped, the floating impurities are skimmed off, and the sugar is allowed partially to crystallize. As soon as the right grain exists, a green syrup is run upon the mass, which is then cooled and machined. Instead of raw sugar, scraps or fragments from loaf and cube sugar, or from massecuites, may be used, in which cases green syrup or other suitable sugar solution is used instead of water. The three processes may be worked in combination.

Abstract: 14,883. Hansen, T. July 19. Indicators, statioz, stopping-place, and like.- Relates to apparatus for indicating the names of stations or stopping-places, or for displaying advertisements &c. The names of the stations &c. are marked on cards mounted on the frames a, which are suspended, as shown, by the lateral pins b from a carriage c mounted to travel on the guides g. The carriage is operated, to bring the desired frame into position for raising, by chain gearing and bevel gearing from the hani-wheel 5. A glazed dial 10, Fig. 8, enables any desired frame to be selected. The frame is raised into view, behind a glazed door in the apparatus, by means of endless chains 32, which automatically engage with the pins b of the selected frame when the machine is started. When the frame has been exhibited, the mechanism operating the chains 32 is automatically reversed, and the frame is lowered to its original position. The machine is driven by an electromotor, and is started by depressing the spindle 20, Fig. 8. The movement of this spindle acts through the lever 23 and pin 28 to lock the hand-wheel 5, while it also acts through suitable connections on the clutch 95 to start the machine. The clutch may be automatically disengaged by a spring projection 110 on one of the wheels.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Steam Generators.
Inventor: MONTUPET ANTONIN
Filed: 1900-03-10
Granted: 1900-10-20
Abstract: 4600. Montupet, A. March 10. Water-circulation, promoting; alarms, low-water. -Relates to methods of, and means for, promoting the circulation so that incrustation on the steamgenerating portions of a boiler and priming are prevented. Should the water get low, the circulation ceases and the generation of steam falls off, which is shown by the motor supplied from the boiler, and the attention of the person in charge is drawn to the matter. Fig. 1 shows the means for promoting circulation in an elephant boiler. The back tubes b are extended up to near the water level, while the passage of water up the front tubes is prevented by diaphragms c, d, so that the water circulates as shown by the arrows. When the body of the boiler is multitubular, the extensions from the back tubes are united and carried up between the two nests of tubes, where such an arrangement is possible. If. not, the extensions e, e are made as long as practicable. This method of promoting circulation can also be applied to internally-fired boilers of the elephant type. Fig. 6 shows the method adopted in vertical boilers fitted with Field tubes. Extensions k, h are secured to the outer tubes, and also, if desired, extensions m to the inner tubes. The water passes into the inner tubes through branches n, as shown by the arrows. Circulation is promoted in the annular water space by a cylindrical plate c, d, which may be made conical at its upper end. Fig. 9 shows an arrangement of plates c, d, and p to promote the circulation in locomotive boilers, and Fig. 11 shows the means adopted in the case of a return-tube marine boiler.

Title: Improvements Pertaining to the Water Tanks of Locomotives or Locomotive Tenders.
Inventor: SPENCER ALEXANDER

Granted: 1901-03-23
Abstract: 9155. Spencer, A. May 17. Locomotive.-Relates to means for indicating the evel or quantity of water in the water tanks of locomotives or locomotive tenders, and comprises the combination of a conveniently-placed and suitably-graduated gauge A, similar to a pressuregauge, and a pipe or other duct B connecting the gauge with the lower portion of the tank C. For the purpose of preventing the duct from becoming empty, it is provided with a turned-up end B<1> with or without a downward extension, or with a pocket or cup into which it projects. The fluid in tl e duct and gauge may be air, or water, or some liquid less likely to become frozen. When air is emp'oyed, the duct is pro ided with a comparatively-large chamber at the point where the air and liquid meet, in order to reduce errors due To variations in the temperature of the air. A perforated shield may be used to prevent dirt from entering the duct, or the cushion of air trapped in the downwardly-bent pipe may be relied on for this purpose. A sight-glass near the gauge, and a plug for allowing air to escape or liquid to be poured into the gauge and duct, may also be furnished.
