ELECTRIC MOTOR FOR BALLOONS.

ELEClhlO mO1Oh EOh Hhh,<OO-'S'
MIG. Tissandier has described to the Paris
Academy of Science bis new electrical motor
for balloons It consists of a screw propeller
with two helicoidal blades nearly ten feet Ia
diameter, Siemens dynamo-electrical machine
of new design, and light bichromate OF potash
battery. Ii is intended to propel an elongated
balloon of about 1000 cubic yards capacity
The frame of the screw propeller weighs fifteen
and half pounds, ia stretched with SILK var
pushed with india-rubber lacquer, and kept taut
by steel wire stretcilers. The dynamo-electrlc
machine has four electro magnets In the circuit,
and frame parts are of cast Steel so as to bring
the weight down to 121 pounds. 1t drives the
screw by gear, which reduces the speed IN tne
proportion of 10 to 1 thus, if the coil makes
loo revolutions minute, the screw makes
12O. 1t gives out 900 t0ot-pounds per second
with useful effect of 90 per cent. The bI-
chromate battery gives better yield than ae-
cumulators of the same weight. 1t consists oil
An element divided into four series and ar
range in tension. The element consists of an
ebonite cell holding four litres-or o.SS gallon
land containing ten plates of zinc and eleven
cakes of retort carbon. arranged alternately:
The immersed surface of the zinc Is One-third
that of the carbons. This battery, charged
with highly concentrated and very acid solu
ton. ia constant for two hours. The liquid
becomes heated AS it is impoverished. and the
duration of activity may be prolonged by the
addition of chronic acid.

OUTLET OF LAKE WINNIPEG.

Recent exploration and levelling show that
the surmise of General q. X. Warren to the
effect that Lake Winnipeg once discharged 1t
self into the Mississippi on the south, instead of
Hudson's Bay on the east. is correct. Professor
James ID. Dana, the well-known .geologist, in a
paper in The American journal OF Science, dls-
cusses the evidence, and shows that the change
was due, not to barrier OF ice or earth, but
to a change of level over wide area. The
geological facts he adduces point TO the follow
ing succession of events: The lake deposits,
being undeIlaid by unstratifed drift, show that
before the great lake existed glacier hat
moved south ward over that region, and de-
nosited morapic material. The high level
prairie on either side of the lake region and OF
the Minnesota Valley is made up OF this I'M
in the yart next the lake valley and the strait
fication i'm the material show that the Hoods
from the melting ice leveiled it. This period
of foods was followed by the era OF the great
lake, that Is to say Of Gaet waters ana no. gentle
Traverse region, which appears TO have been
brought about by dimnution In the slope OF
the general surface, which was part OF a great
change of slope which went on, as General
Warren has explained, until the land was re-
duced to its present inclination and the stream
to ats present courses.
DEVELOPMENT OF HORSE TROTTING.
Professor Pickering examines mathematically
In Science the facts about the evolution
of tie frUtf1ng 0ofs0 ftCcutty kiNcu
Brewer in TBe american Journal Of Science,
and arrives Mt some curious results. MIR. Pick
ering finds that the speed of the trottlng horse
il increasing at nearly uniform rate OF l-3
seconds per mile in ten years, and that at this
rate in the year 1907 horse will trot a mile in
two Sninutes, aud in 2045 In one minute. This
improvement cannot, however, go on in
definitely, and so Mr.. Pickering thinks that
the convex curve which he now finds to rep
resent with tolerable fairness the improvement
In the horses speed will soon become straight
line, when the speed viii remain stationary,
and may even be converted into concave
curve, with 9 corresponding falling of in the
has struck Mr.. Pickering in his examination of
Mr.. Brewers tables is the rapid increase in the
number Of trotting horses-an increase which If
continued at the present rate will IN the year
1900 supply the country with 10000 trotting
horses that can travel mile in $50 or less.

The procession commenced passing in re.

fourths of an hour. Commissioners West and
Edmonds were present and reviewed them,
Commissioner Lydecker being absent.

citation, which was in line, fine wreath and

seal of the order. This was made on wood
base with n standard with which it was car
ried in tho line of march. Tho brickmakers
are large body of men in this district, and
both white and colored work together in
harmony.
Some little difficulty occurred at the corner
Of Fifteenth street and New York avenue
owing to the position of the of the brick
makers, but matters were soon adjusted, and
myriads of umbrellas could be seen and of
every variety from the old blue gingham to
the expensive silk. Many houses were dec
