A Rose that Wilted

The Rose Of the cellar, who had been par.
ticularly bitter against the Cantys, during
and since the municipal election, thinking
thereby to obtain "intiooence'' among the
prohibitionists, had its nazal appendage put
to blush by the impetuous energy Of Tom
Canty's knuckles, near Mezger's saloon, on
Wednesday afternoon. The forcible remind
err of Mr.. CAVITY somewhat wilted the once
proud exotic, and as it is a great big fellow
and its assaiiant little fellow, it absolutely
refused to practice the manly art of self de
Tense and drew big revolver, with the pre-.
sunable intention of supplying Mr.. CAVITY
with an old fashioned, but undesirable ven
tilating apparatus. Marshal Maher, who
was near, attempted to queil the disturbance
by clubbing Mr.. Canty, and after removing
the cutic,e from the face of q son Of Mr.
Diueen. led Mr.. CAVITY away, followed by q
long drawn sigh ofrelief-from Rose.

An Ingenious Time.Piece.

A patent for new clock or chro-
nometer has just been granted that Is
attracting considerable attention here.
1t is the invention of w. FL. and j. ID.
Gray. of Maryland, who claim it can
be made to run, If necessary, for years
after once wound up. Other special
features of this time-piece are that it is
absolutely noiseless when in opera tion,
and does away entirely with the pendu-
lum balance wheel now used in clocks
and watches. The running gear. in-
Guiding both the. striking and time
mechanism, consists of but six wheels,
and it requires but one spring to propel
both of these attachments. BY the use
Of a patent self-winding spring con-
nected to two of the wheels the invent
ors utilize the power wasted by friction
in other time pieces, thus enabling the
clock to run a much greater length OF
time with the same motive power OF by
once winding it M. The inventors
threaten to work revolution in clock
making by the introduction of time
piece, which. they say, because Of its
simplicity. can be manufactured at
much less cost than the many excellent
low-prieed time-pieces manufactured in
this country to-day Washington fs'-

A Practical Invention.

In the hundreds of railroad appli-
ances that are annually invented, few
seem to be of really practical service
when the test is made. There is al
ways something lacking to make it
"just the thing" A recent invention
in railroad equipment has apparently
all the requisites of good thing and
seems to be not only scientifically COR
rect, but simple and easy to adjust. 1t
is in the form of platform projection
for passenger coaches, suitable for
either vestbule or ordinary train.
The projection does away with the
vertical and lateral motion Of the coach
which the Miller buffer only partially
succeeded in doing. and is a protection
against accidents incident to the jump
ing off the track of the trucks. Should
the truck and wheels become derailed,
as in the recent Florida accident, the
projection on the adjacent car would
hold the derailed car in place, and the
truck would become suspended, not
touching the ties. There would be no
jolting or humping along, and posi-
BILE smashup of the coach. As pre-
ventive of accidents by derailment it is
claimed to fit the needs exactly. -Cfi-
