A New and Valuable Proce.. Discovered.

New Orleans Times Democrat
A correspondent writing from Centsrville
Tenn, gives an interesting account Of the
alcohol works at Bird creek, Hickman
county. There are but two other similar
establishments in the United States: This
company commenced operations with the
view OF making charcoal for smelling ore,
and as incidental TO this the vapos and
liquids expelled from the wood In the pro-
cess OF making charcoal was TO be converted
into wood alcohol. and few other chemi-
Gals OF commercial value, and while all this
was being successfully accomplished, DR..
Pierce was systematically weighing. study
ing and experimenting with the highly
heated gases generated In the process Of
converting wool into charcoal, and the re-
suit has been wonderful discovery. and
am informed that no has secured patent
that will result In revolutionizing the pro-
Cess OF making charcoal iron-
THE large cone-like ovens are first filed
with from 1855 TO 300 cords OF wood, and
highly heated air Is driven into the oven,
but the wood Is not ignited, and thus the
terial Of the wood Is destroyed. Its shape
and size Is preserved; no apparent change
takes place except In color. The small leaf,
the wood and even the rabbit that had un-
fortunately sought shelter In tho hollow
ogwood, all preserve their most minute
shape, nothing changed but tho color. Even
the rabbit hairs are cauterissd. Nothing h
lost; every pound Of material Is chemically
accouL ted Tor. sa@#
"The charcoal and alcohol and other
liquids distilled from the wood left con-
siderable amount Of volatile substances yet
unaccountei for. and 10 utilise these escap-
ing vapors and gases had been the study of
DIR, Pierce. He has discovered process Of
conveying these hitherto unused gases to an

De fust OF May an Christmas day of de

Further conversation proved Uncle
Zach most incredulous person. Chanc-
ing to mention DIR. Carver feat of break

"1heerd bout dat shootin' ard knowed

Later, Uncle Zach observed a rope
running along the side Of the car.
Boss, what's dat line fur ?"
"To apply the air brake in case of
accident.h Then we had further to ex-
plain how the force OF the brake was
obtained, to which Uncle Zach re-
sponded:-
"Look q here, boss, you sholy don't
'spect me to b'leeve dat foolishness?
Why, de biggest harricane whatever
blowed couldn't stop dis train, runnin'
forty mile hour. An you think

There are Q great many Uncle Zachs
who Judge everything simply by appear
ances. The air-brake does not seem to
be . very powerful thing, but power and
efficiency are not necessarily equivalent
to bigness and pretense.
Philip Beers, ESQ.,, who resides at the
United States Hotel, New York City,
and is engaged in raising subscriptions
for the New York World Bartholdi Ped
estal Fund. was once upbraided by a
distinguished relative who was physi-
clan, for commenting in such enthu-
siastic terms a remedy that cured him
OF Bright's Disease eight years ago. He
said: "Sir, has the medical profession.
with all its power and experience of
thousands Of years, anything that can
cure this terrible disorder" No, no,
that is true, there is no mistake about
it but that Warmers Safe Cure Is really
wonderfully effective preparation.
That remedy Is an "air-brake" that
every man can apply, and this fact ex-
plains why it has saved 80 many hun

To Ascertain the Height Of . Tree.
Woods and Forest

Any person, however ill-informed, might
easily got at the exact height OF tree when
the sun shines or during bright moonlight
by marking two line, on the ground, three
feet apart and then placing in the ground
on the line nearest the sun stick that shall
stand exactly three feet out Of the soil.
When the end of the shadow Of the stick ex-
actly touches the furthest line, then also the
shadow Of the tree will be exactly In length
the same measureme a. its height or
course. in such a case, the sun will be at an
exact angle Of Is degrees.
Measurements Of this character could be
effected best In the summer, when the sun
Is powerful, has reached to . good height
in the heavens, and when the trees are
clothed with living green. so as to cast q
dense shade. To many to whom this idea
may not have occurred 1t might be made
annually matter OF interest thus on warm
summer days to take the height OF promi-
mont trees, and SO to compare growth from
year to year.

Jupiter In q New Light.

According TO all accounts, Jupiter DO
longed to one Of the first families of ancient
times. 30 great was his political influence
that even at the present day thsre are
people who still swear by Jupiter.
Jupiter, or Jove, as be was called by his
more intimate friends, wa, the son Of Mr..
and Mrs Saturn. Mrs Saturn's maiden
name was Ops. She belonged TO Ii wealthy
but respectable family.
The Titans, who were presumably her
uncles, opposed the match ON political
grounds, but ultimately gave their consent
On condition that all the male offspring
should he eliminated.
The reason why the prospective daughters
were TO lie spared is supposed by some
modern historians, who have millinery bills
to pay, TO lie because girls in those days did
not wear as many or as expensive garments
as they do at the present day. A cursoJy
glance at the ancient statuary Of the Roman
gCddesses strengthens this belief. They
could not have cost their parents very much
for clothing.
Several sons were born to Saturn and
Ops, but Saturn, true to the campaign pledge
b had made before the election, disposed OF
/ is sons by eating them up, he being a con-
Grmei cannibal. 1t was one Of Siturn's
standing jokes that his sons always agreed
with him. Mrs. Saturn did not object. She
naturally sided with her daughters who
were to come in for all the property.
Just about this time Jupiter was born,
and somehow or other it was his mother,
instead Of his father, who took a liking to
him. She served up a stone to her husband,
and told him 1t was young Jupiter. Saturn
absorbed the stone without discovering the
difference, which goes to show that even at
q tender age the sons of Saturn were hard
lot, being somewhat like the sons Of some OF
our congressman.
Mrs. Saturn secretei young Jupiter until
she could send him of to Mount Ida, where
hs was raised on goats milk and wild honey.
When Jupiter grew up he married Juno,
Tut their married life was not a happy one,
for Jupiter neglected his wife for some fe.
macs with whom he probably became &C
quainted ut q skating rink. Juno at last
became disguised, but being DESTROYS of
avoiding the publicity OF divorce suit she
went home to her mother. Jupiter gave her
n liberal allowance, and always spoke Of Der
~ a true woman.
In his photograph Jupiter Is represented
sitting on gilt-edged throne, evidently en-
gagged in celebrating the glorious Fourth of
July, for he Is surrounded by clouds of
smoke, is firing OFF some Roman candles,
and the American eagle is at his feet
