The Latest and Largest Steam Engine

The largest steam engine in the world
is that constructed for the new italian
cruiser Sardegna. 1t really consists Of
four triple expansion engines, which can
be used together or separately, as de-
sired, the entire combination being ca
pable of developing force of $4,000
nominal, or %, COO actual horsepower.
The ship is driven by twin screws, and
two engines are connected to the shaft
of each screw, but one screw can be
stopped altogether if the vessel is to be
turned around, or for ordinary sailing,
one engine only may be used for each
screw; but, in..case it should be neces-
sary to increase the speed, the other en-
gines can at once be connected and the
full power exerted. As usual with naval
machinery, large number of auxiliary
engines are used. On the Sardegna
there are no less than twenty compound
auxiliary engines for feeding the boil.
ers. keeping up the draught, and so ON,
besides great variety of single cylin-
der machines. architect.

As to Mental Shock.

The effects of mental shock on the
mind causing permanent bad health of
mind are easily inflicted in the period
of infancy, early life and school life, of
which let one illustration suffice. A
gentleman who for many years was I'M
der my observation as q confirmed mem
tai invalid, o strong man in many re-
spects, but utterly irresolute, and in the
end of disordered mind altogether,
acquired his mental disease from sudden
distrust. He had in his childhood an
innate dread of deep water, and he had
at the same time a tutor for whom he
held the warmest affection, coupled
with the most absolute trust and con-
fidence. In thoughtless and unhappy
moment the tutor became possessed
with the idea that he would break his
pupils dread of deep water by pitching
him into q pool where they were &C.
customed to bathe together at the
deepest part.
There were no actual danger, for the
depth was really not great, the pool was
calm, the boy could swim a little, and
in an instant the tutor. a strong and
skillful swimmer, was in the water him
self rendering succor and support. The
lad was brought to shore safely enough,
but the mischief to the mind was in
flicted beyond repair. The surface of
trust was obliterated, and fixed dis
trust in the mind of the youth was set
up for ever. If skilful Psychologist
could have discovered the seat of trust
in that youth, and could have destroyed
it mechanically, he could not have in
flicted more severe injury nor one
more determinately lifelong in its
effects.-LOngmdH's Magazine.

CAPITAL NOTES.

The first issue of the Topeka Daily
Globe, published by George L. Truax,
appeared Monday.
There was strike at the state house
Monday. The bod carriers, who were
getting s1.75 per day, demanded 8:
per day, and because it was not con.
coded they quit work.
The death of Hon. G. W. Potwin. at
GAINESVILLE, Ohio, the founder of Pot
win Place, occurred July 9. Mr.. Pot
win was upward of seventy years Of age.
He still owns valuable interests in this
city.
s. II. Dodge, of the Beloit Gazette,
has presented the State Historical So
ciety with fac simile of the indenture
by which the late Hon. Simon Cameron
was apprenticed to the printers trade.
1t is very good looking document
itself.
The newspaper and publishing bust
ness will be made a special feature of
the next annual report of Labor Com
missioner Betton. With this end in
view, he has sent blanks to all the pa
pers in Kansas. calling for complete de.
tails of the business.
The final report Of W. G. Jones, as
United States marshal for the district
Of Kansas, has been submitted to the.
proper authorities at Washington. 1t
shows a surplus of 81 800 in the receipts
Of the office over the Sc, 900 which is al
lowed for the expenses and salary of the
office.
James button, the fireman on the
locomotive which exploded near Tope-
IA, was nephew of Railroad Commits
sioner James Humphrey. He was taken
TO Junction City for burial. The Office
Of the commission was closed, and those
officials accompanied the funeral party
to Junction City.
A notary public, of Hutchinson,
wrote Governor Humphrey, asking adj
vice: He said that he is frequently
asked to take acknowledgements of deeds
made out in blank. The governor, DEEM
ing the matter of general interest and
of Importance, asked the attorney gen.
eral to give written opinion. MI. KEEL
logg says: ut is not good practice
for a notary to take acknowledgment Of
deeds, any portions of which are left in
blank. 1t could scarcely be said that
the instrument is properly executed as
long as any material portion of it is
left in blank; and the name of the
grantee, for example, is material part
of the deed. And if the execution of
the deed has not been completed, I
should scarcely think a person could
properly appear before an officer and
declare that he had executed the deed.
This is the act which constitutes the ac-
acknowledgement. do not see how the
of the instrument can be
proven by a notary when he is ignorant
Of its material provisions, nor do I see
how he can keep the proper record re-
qnired of him by law when he is igno-
rant Of the names of the parties to an
acknowledged before him.
My advice to the notary is to refuse to
take acknowledgements of any instru-
ments not completely filed out"

Lind and Parepa render match less duet
in the music room of the old Heavenly
homestead. In my Fathers house are
many rooms"
Another room in our Fathers house
will be the family room. 1t may CORE
spond somewhat with the family room
on earth. At morning and evening, you
know, that is the place We now meet.
Though every member of the household
have separate room, in the family
room they all gather, and Joys and sor-
rows and experiences of all styles are
there rehearsed. Sacred room in all our
dwellings,! Whether it be luxurious
with ottomans and divans and books in
Russian lids standing in mahogany
case, or there be only few plain chairs
and a cradle. So the family room on
high will be the place where the kins-
folk assemble and talk over the family
experiences of earth, the weddings, the
births. the burials. the festal DAYS Of
Christmas and Thanksgiving reunion.
Will the children departed remain chill
dren there? Will the aged remain aged
there? Oh, no; everything is perfect
there The child will go ahead to elo-
rious maturity and the aged will 90 back
to glorified maturity. The rising sun of
the one Will rise to meridian and the
descending sun of the other will return
to meridian. However much We love
our children ON earth We would con-
slider 1t domestic disaster if they
stayed children, and SO We rejoice at
their growth here. And when We meet
IN the family room of our Fathers
house. We will be glad that they have

childhood will advance to that and the

uase VI NJ tue uelBnt OF some great re-

oratorio are a bankruptcy of thought
compared with the first flash of His APP
pearance in that reception room. At
that moment when you confront each
other. Christ looking upon you and
.ou looking upon Christ, there will be
n ecstatic thrill and surging of emotion
that beggars all description. Look!
they need no introduction. Long ago
Christ chose that repentant sinner and
that repentant sinner chose Christ.
Mlghtiest moment of an immortal his
tory-the first kiss of Heaven! Jesus
and the soul. The soul and Jesus.
But now into that reception room
pour the elorifed kinsfoik. Enough of
earthly retention to let you know them,
but without their wounds or their sick
nesses or their troubles. See what
Heaven has done for them. Soradiant.
SO gleeful, SO transportingly lovely.
They call you by name. They greet
you with an ardor proportioned to the
anguish of your parting aud the length
of your separation. Father, Mother!
There is your child. Sisters! Brothers!
Friends! l wish you joy. For years
apart, together again in the reception
room of the old homestead. You see
they will know you are coming. There
are SO MANY immortals filling all the
spaces between here and Heaven that
news like that flies like lightning. They
will be there in an instant; though they
were in some other world on errand
from God q signal would be thrown
that would fetch them. Though you
mi sht at first feel dazed and overawed
ut their supernal splendor, all that feel
ing will be gone at their first touch of
Heavenly salutation and We will say:
20 my lost boy, 20 my lost companion"
20 my lost friend, are We here toRether?"
