When the velocity of the flow is sufficient to carry the valve in the valve chamber up against the end of the curved overflow tube, theoveraow is immedi- ately checked and the momentum acquired by the water causes it to continue to flow for an instant into the air chamber, compressing the air in the chamber and causing the water to rise in the discharge tube. As soon as equilibrium is established the valve in the air chamber closes and the valvo in the valve chamber falls away from it's seat on tho over- flow tube, allowing the water to discharge again, and so on, this intermittent action con tinuing so long as there is water in the reser voir. The water discharged by the riser is only fraction of that flowing out of the reservoir. The above illustrated description Is from Scientific American.

"You will have to investigate the

mind you, political assassinations do
not originate in the minds of men 10
the humblest walks Of life. Men who
earn their living by the sweat of their
brow, whose lives are poems OF honor
or industry, do not find it in their minds
and hearts to conceive assassination,
but it is conceived and planned by
more influential, fne-haircd gentle
men who pretend TO be respectable.
While the cowardly villain who fired
the gun that killed Clayton should be
caught and hung, the main Object of
our search is the dastardly eonspira-
tors who inspired it. Some men SEEM

uate, the horror Of this murder on the

Nevada. Death Valley, the Majaye
Desert to Los Angeles, and the second
from Pocatello, point on the Oregon
Short Line, west through Northern
Nevada into California. John Sharp,
General Superintendent of the Utah
Central, told reporter a few days ago
that the company proposed finally to
decide the matter at the annual meet
ing which took place in Boston March
Goth. The line is controlled by the
Union Pacific. He further stated that
the Directors had finally decided to
build the line, but that no such an
intention could he made until after the
annual meeting of the Union Pacific
in April. He expected, he said, that
graders would be at work 10 May.
