WATER POWER AND ELECTRIC
MOTORS.

The association of water-power
with electric motors has developed
4 source Of force that is destined to
be of eminent service in industrial
life. The distribution of this new
energy by means of wires and mo-
tors over areas tributary to our
water courses will add a new chap
ter to the story of industrial de-
velopment. 1t has been computed
on the best data obtainable that the
rivers and streams of this country
averaged throughout the year over
200,000,000 horsepower. The cleo
trio utilization of this power opens
a field of magnificent opportunities.
The Niagara project is in CORE
spondence with the possibilities of
this new energy in motive powes.
In Rochester, Kearney and Spokane
Falls we have practical examples
of its use. The lower falls of the
Genesee river are utilized by the
Rochester Brush Electric Light
Company, and it has 800 motors
already in active service. 1t fur

horsepower is S120 per annum;
$3.50 for FIVE; $500 for six; $500 for
eight; S4T5 for ten, and 500 for
fifteen. The power applied at these
rates is economical and steady, and

How Portuguese Carry Water.

Spanish, Portuguese and Indian peo-
pie have Il way of cooling water CON-
mon to them all, but the Portuguese in
habitants of the Azores and Madeira
have q little touch of their own which
travellers in the east have failed to note.
They draw their water fresh from deep,
dark wells, OF the public fountains, into
big terra-cotta water coolers. Then they
wash some big ferns and thrust them
down into the water, there to give up
their earthly GOODNESS. This little scheme,
which is highly satisfactory from the
Portuguese point of view, was evolved
in the same way, evidently, as the In
dian learned to make soup by dropping
red hot stones into the potage. The
ferns are used by the Portuguese milk
men also to act as leafy umbrellasto the
big gourds and jars of milk they carry
on a pole across their shoulders, fresh
ones being plucked from time to time.
They also answer the same purpose as
does the block of wood which horsemen
put into a pail of water that goes into a
freight car with q travelling horse. They
keep the milk from sloshing.-New York

Once Too Often.

A foolish young fellow at Albany,
while riding in al electric car, took a
costly gold watch out of his pocket, and
just for the purpose of showing that he
dared do it, laid the timepiece on the
floor of the car, just over the motor. OF
course it became heavily charged with
the electric fluid and stopped. After it
had lain there perhaps ten seconds lie
picked it up and it began running again.
Some one in the car remarked that it
might do it once, but it would not be a
safe experiment to try it very often. lie
secuted the idea of danger, and to show
that 10 harm could come to u watch UNI
der the circumstances he placed it upon
the floor again, letting it remain IL min
ute. The works became thoroughly
magnetized, would not go, and a watch
maker tells him they are ruined.-Ex-

The Grati6cd Lecturer.

who read every word of his lecture, had
sewed the leaves together with such in
judicious fir1nness that the last word of
each line wa all but indecipherable-a
pain to himself and IN evaporation to
his audience. This gentleman was SO
little aware of the want of touch be-
tween himself and his hearers that the
isonical plaudits which gradually began
to salute his success in getting at a more
difficult word than usual only evoked an
assurance that though the applause was
extremely gratifying to him he rather
feared it took up time! The cheers this
provoked took up so much time that
when they were over a good part of his
hearers We're also Jour

To Prevent Accidents.

An arrangement for the prevention of
accidents by the electric current has
been adopted at the works of the Nor
gan Engineering company of Alliance,
O. A board is fixed on the wall facing
the dynamo in the engine room. On this
board are six hooks on the checks of the
six men who are employed in looking
after tho circuits. When a man is called
on duty he removes his check from the
hook and takes it with him. The engi-
neer sees by a glance at the board that
one hook is absent, and that therefore
d man is engaged about the lines
around the shop, and the dynamo is not
started until the check is replaced on the
hook. The engineer then understands
that the coast is clear, and turns on his
current without fear of accident to any
of the linemen.-Exchange.

Bee Disease.

A "nameless bee disease" has appeared
during tho last few years, and the bee
keepers have had to lament not only de-
pleted hives, but large numbers of dis
eased bees. The bees look black because
of loss of hair, much as do robber bees or
old bees in spring, and frequently make
strange motions in front of the hives, as
though dancing or in commissions. The
disease is supposed to be due to fungoid
attack. The remedy is found in super
seding the queen with a healthy one,
and also in having a plentiful supply OF
salt water close to the hives, where the
bees can gain ready access to it.-New

Lead Dust in Ouantitv.

Cases Of lead poisoning among tho
jacquard weaves in aSwiss factory were
traced to the dust from leaden weights
which are used by the weavers to carry
the thread of their warp. After the
varnish has been rubbed off from the
weights the lead begins to wear away
and falls in fine particles among the dust
on the floor. In some cases the dust was
as much as 56.86 per cent. lead, and ever
when the utmost care had been taken 0
or 10 per cent. of lead was found in it.
