Some of the Things Recently Brought
to Light.
Philadelphia News.

A California man is said to have dis
covered a process for drying and press
ing potatoes by which they can be pre-
served for years without any loss OF
their flavor or nutritive qualities
a German machinist has invented a
process for cleaning oil which has been
used for lubricating machinery, by
which he claims a saving of 50 per cent
III the consumption of the material is
obtained.
A firm of stove manufacturers in
Albany have recently brought out new
lining for stoves, intended particularly
for those in which soft coal is burned.
| is claimed that clinkers will not form
in the stove in which the lining is used
A new material for architectural pur-
poses, said to be entirely fire. proof is
made from cotton. After being CON
verted into paste by chemical treat
ment. it is nodded into tie desired form
and allowed to dry when it became as
hard as stone. 1t is called architectural
cotton.
A French electrician has devised a
form of electric lamp by which inter
mittent luminous signals can be pro-
duced. A cam motion is used by which
the carbons are separated at each
revolution, and can be operated by
clockwork for regular signals or by
hand al variable rate for the irregular
ones.
A machine has been recently patent
ed designed for threading bolts and
tapping nuts, and so constructed that
when one tap or die is forced forward to
do its work another die or tap will be
withdrawn. The machine thus works
continuously, and no time is lost in with
drawing the die or tap.
A New Yorker is said to have discoy
cred process for the manufacture OF
quinine from coal tar. Owing to the
fact that little has been done toward
the cultivation Of the cinchona, a sub
stitute for Peruvian bark, from which
the drug has heretofore been made, il
has been sought after for years. The
trade fin the article is q heavy one, and
ii the new process should prove to be
successful as it is anticipated by the in.
ventor, it will cause a revolution in the
trade.

Mortal Injuries to n Trareze Performer
New York Star

New ork Star.
One Of the performers in Barnum's
circus, Miss Elizabeth b. Davene, died
on Thursday night at the New York
hospital from conclusion Of the spine
and hemorrhage, caused bya fall while
performing at Wilkesbarre, Pa, on
May 3.
Miss Davene was twenty-one years
old, of prepossessing appearance, and
for the past two seasons had travelled
with Barnum's circus, performing what
is known as the "iiying leap,.' with two
other female performers, under the
name of Olga"
While at Wilkesbarre, Miss Davene,
who had been suffering from lung trou-
bles, complained of feeling unwell.
Her friends, as well as her fellow
performers, tried to dissuade her from
appearing on the evening she received
her injuries, but she ii sisted on going
on with her part of the programme.
In the first act she performed n num-
Der of trapeze feats with two compan-
ions, and while she was going through
part in which she was supported on
the trapeze by one Of her fellow-per-
formers, she whispered to her: Hold
me tight | fear Pm getting weak"
In the third act, despite the protests
of the manager and other Of the circus
people, she insisted in appearing in the
Flying Leap" This feat is accom-
plished by the performer springing
from trap and leaping forward a dis
lance of ten or fifteen feet, turning a
somersault, and dropping into II net
placed midway between the ground
and the level Of the trap, which is
about twenty feet from the ground.
Miss Davene performed her feat in
the usual manner, and fell in a sitting
position in the net. Instead of bound
ing out Of the net, which is held by
elastic supports, Miss Davene, after
striking it, fell back perfectly rigid, and
had to be lifted out and assisted to the
dressing-room. Physicians were sent
for, and they found that she had sus-
at first supposed. She was, on the add
nee Of the doctors, brought to this city
and placed in the New York hospital,
where she fingered III great pain until
Thursday night.
Miss Davene was born in England,
and had for a number OF years per-
formed feats similar to the one which
caused her death, both in this country
am Europe. She came here with her
brother about three years ago, and
when not travelling with Barnum's cir
Gus. appeared in specialties in the
BLACK Venus" "Enchantment,' and
other spectacular plays performed at
Niblo's Garden.
