At or 10 he was accustomed to go to the
war department, working like an editor for
about six hours and doing more work than
all his staff put together, and doing it per-
fectly in detail At about noon he was very
liable to go out with jolly old Gen. Van Vliet
and get glass of whisky and water and a
bit of lunch-then back to the department.

The Horse Must 60,

A st. Louis inventor claims to have COM
pleted a piston movement like that of the
steam engine, to which, however, electricity,
instead OF steam, is to be applied. 1t has four
magnets which act alternately in attracting
and repelling the piston. 1t is proposed to
apply it to cabs, street cars, yachts, ETC. 1t
will have storage battery capable of run
ming it twenty-four hours. The great desid-
eratum In locomotion now is small, cheap,
convenient motor for vehicles in cities. Horse
power in its literal, not its mechanical, sense
Is behind the age. There is no more reason
why the carts, carriages and cars of a paved
city should be drawn by SO expensive and
awkward power as horses than why ware
house elevators should be hosted and lowered
by man power, or saw mills be operated BY
horses. A small, neat motor slowed com
pactly away under the vehicle would be as
progressive mechanical device as the sew
ing machine. For in health and cleanliness
alone it would be blessing. Nearly the
whole OF the mud and dust in city streets is
the result of using horses; and their shoes
pound and tear the pavements to pieces quite
as much as the wheels of vehicles The day
Will come, perhaps, when even the present
generation will see all vehicles in large towns
and cities propelled by electricity, and q
horse be only an object of luxury or curl
OSity.

a man who made a living by his effem-
macy was buried here this week You may
know him as the great Ricardo, burlesque
priIna donna, or woman singer in minstrel
company. His real name was Thomas Foley.
Did he ever have any difficulty in cult
waiting the faIsetto voice that he used so
cleverly on the stages" I asked OF fellow
performer.
"Not bit of it," was the reply. sThe
trouble was all the other way. His thin,
womanish voice was natural He had in
boyhood been a soprano singer in q
church choir, and when he grew to
manhood the qualification for that kind
OF vocaism didn't leave him. That was all
very we'll as providing means of making
an easy, good living, but he was sensitive
about it, and would have gladly spoiled it by
acquiring masculine depth of tone 1t was
his constant endeavor to get rid Of his
falsetto; and it wasn't in private life alone
that he made the effort. You may have
noticed that Ministries who do the wench
business usually introduce an occasional
baritone or bass note, not only because the
sudden contrast is sure to raise laugh, but
to save themselves from the accusation of
natural girlishness. So the tones that the
audience deems assumed are just the ones
that are not and vice versa"

The Michigan gas well, the light from

Wheeling hill, is the pioneer gas well Of this
vicinity. 1t led to all of the others now max
ing such turmoil in this vicinity. 1t was
sunk for oil, not gas, and the great gaseous
reservoir was tapped unawares. Just three
miles nearer US the Buchanan well was sunk,
and is now the deepest well in the world, hav-
ing reached 4, 800 feet, and is still going down
When depth of 1000 feet was reached the
tools broke and were left there, and for some
time the well was deserted. Then new conce n
took hold of it, and is now vigorously drilling
for the greasy fluid The rope broke in March,
and the cable, between 1900 and 5000 feet
in length, and weighing several tons, parted
700 feet from the top, and all efforts to catch
hold of it and draw it out with the great iron
shaft or drill at the lower end failed. The
workmen were then discharged and the pub
lie supposed the well abandoned. Superin-
tendent Croker had no thought of quitting
the work. Additional tools were procured,
anu at d recent date work was resumed.

Complicated Cipher Codes.
[Chicago Inter Ocean.

The most copious cipher codes of the pres
emit day are the English cable ciphers They
are extraordinary structures, one of them
comprising $4,000 words. Others are made
up of syllables selected from living and dead
languages. combined SO as to make euphony.
These express nearly everything, and besides
effectually serve the purposes of absolutely
imviolable secrecy. All of these ciphers are
constructed by persons who study the bust
ness to which they are adapted, from a scien-
tific standpoint and also from actual ex-
perience. Their labors are generally well re-
paid, a copious cipher for firms exclusive
use being considered worth from $500 tc

in the grain business in this city has &C.
