Cats as ConnternaIances.


From time to time one hears Of VAR:

are carried round and round for loutg
on the inside rim of the wheel aut
generally the information conclude,
with some observation upon the won.

time
A dog in ;hc cnginc-room Of the pub
lie station Of the wuterw0rks. uhit
looking through a slit in the floor pro.
yided for the wheel, saw a cat In Oh,
basement below. tie attempted tr
spring upon her between the spoke5 oi
the wheel, but was caught and Carried
around ON tie inside rim for n number
of revolutions. On his release ht
would never enter or approach the
building again.
The engine-tcuder of the large
armorjes in Connecticut perceived
what he supposed to be piece %

wheel OF the engine and was somewhat
provoked that any one should be ST
disorderly as to throw paper in that
way. But when the mill was stopped
at noon a eat jumped ont. and, instead
OF being aftronted on permanently Ter
ritied by the involuntary ride of scvera
hours, did not abandon the engine
room.
The engineer in priuting-oilice OF
one of the newspapers in Montreal dis
covered, as he thought, a large piece
Of paper on the inner rim of the fly

hours, when the engine was stopped, 9
cat jumped out, somewhat demoralizcd
but not permanently injured
Instead of wondering how cat could
hold Oh under such circumstances, an
examination of the facts will lead one
to question Why the beast was moi
squeezed to death by centrifugal force
Applying the formula, ana assuming
what appears to be the proper Limit

A Stronger Gun Than II hooks.

Each DAYS progress at the Pittsburg
Steel Casting Company's works on the
new cannon shows the successful
character Of tie work. The new en-
cine of war is in the lathe now.
The magnitude OF the interests
which would be glad to sec the failure
of the Pittsburg gun, said a gentle
man who is interested in the new cam
non, "can be understood by remem-
herring that the entire expenditures Of
Europe for artillery have for some
years been for the 'bult-up steel guns.
The great Armstrong establishment in
England is wholly devoted TO making
the cannon by shrining successive
tubes or rings Of steel one upon the
other. The still vastcr establishment
of Krupp in Germany derives nearly
all Of its profits from the manufacture
of cannon in the same way.
"Now, if You remember that the
cost Of the built-up steel gun runs from
So TO s. per pound according TO their
size, while the solid steel gun just
turned out is ut the contract price of
% cents per pound, You can see what
"a bitN w tiiAF1 lAlAlliNll'N y hNt N't7 ~ -
be dealt if the firing tests show that the
new cannon is as good or better than
the older ones. If it is as good, the
immense gain in choapness will utter
ly destroy the business of the immense
Krupp and Armstrong works. If it is
better, it viii turn the hundreds Of
cannon they made for the countries
of he Old World into old metal
They will keep a close watch of tie
tests of this gun, and have no doubt
that if $J0,0 would secure its failure
under the firing tests, the money
would be forthcoming "
If the tests demonstrate the sue
cess Of the siX-inch solid gun, will that
show the ability Of Pittsburg to secure
equally good results with the largest
steel guns, such rs have been made
by KrGpp and Armstrong in the other
process2' was asked Of a gentleman
who is interested in the steel casting
company.
we sill take a contract tomorrow
to make 150-ton gun if any Govern
ment Wishes to order it, was the short
but decisive reply. PiHSjHrg Dispatch.
