Making the Sun Work.

One of the most notable inventions
displayed at the Paris exhibition is an
apparatus for Transforming the heat Of
the sun into motive power for pumping
water and other mechanical uses. 1t is
the device of a French inventor named
Charles Teller.
This apparatus is of great interest as
foreshadowing the time when solar heat,
in combination with electric transmits
sion of force, will be made to furnish
motive power for all engines, and take
the place of coal and steam-a change
which will vastly cheaper manufactures
and travel, and greatly enhance human
comfort the world over.
The heat which comes to the earth in
the suns beams is, as has long been
known, the equivalent of from one to
five or more horse power for every
square yard of the earth's surface, ac-
cording to the latitude and the season of
the year.
The utilization of this waste heat, its
conversion into usable power, has been
the study of inventors, and much time
and great sums of money have been
spent upon it. NJ. Telliers contrivance
aims to accomplish this object.-Swedes-

Pluck of a Florida Editor.

Away back in Florida territorial days Edi-
tor Bartlett WAS running a weekly paper in
Tallahassee. He was known to be a deter
mined man he didn't talk much with his
best friends Newspapers in those days,
numbering not moro than three or four in the
ssate, were oftan put 70 :ss,7-!!z' wits 10 make
both ends meet. Printers had TO he paid. and
at the close Of Saturday night it was often
the case than the typo had 10 wait for a good
job TO come IN TO get ms wages
BartieGt, however, always got through
somehow, and In fact he never intended 10
fail or give Up. But the tine came when
rents became due and deoos increased
Finally he was sued, ana the sheriff was sent
TO levy on the Office. Bartlett, hearing OF it,
bought a keg Of powder and unheaied it. and
placed it at the top OF the stairs, the only en-
trance into the Office When the sheriff got
10 the head OF the stairs he found the editor
sitting in chair smoking a cigar close 10 the
keg. The sheriff stopped. Bartlett said:

A Famous Wooden Leg.

A celebrated wooden leg has been dis
covered in an old Vincennes shop, which
was once a smithy. There is abundant
evidence that the relic in question is
the sham limb which replaced the leg
which Gen. Daumesnil lost in the big
wars of the first Napoleon. This rugged
old warrior defended the fortress of Vim
cennes against the allied army, and is
famous for having said to the invaders,
when summoned to give up the place:
Bring me back my leg which you shot
off and you shall have my keysp The
wooden leg now found had been sent by
Daumesnil to Vincennes smith in order
to be ''shod," as the general himself ex-
pressed it. Before the article was sent
back the old warrior died suddenly, and
his sham limb remained in the ancient
smithy until the present day. 1t will
now be placed in the artillery museum
of the Hotel des Invalides among many
other martial and historic Souvenirs

evening they sat down by the roadside
in DARK Run lane and began eating some
slices OF bread which they carried In
their pockets.
They were entirely oblivious Of bruin,
who was hungry, too. The powerful
brute finally decided to seize share of
the feast. and he crawled up to one of
the men and seized the unsuspecting
wanderer in his claws. The victim
shouted, and his companion sprang to
his help. Hetried to get his friend from
the. bears clutches, but his efforts only
served to further anger the beast. He
held his victim with one powerful front
claw, while he extended the other and
drew the second man to him.
When both men found themselves
fairly in the bears clutches they screamed
in terror. They struggled in every way
to release themselves from the vice like
grasp, but were unsuccessful While
they were fighting against almost certain
death young DUNCAN, who was riding a
mustang not far away. heard their pite-
GUS appeals for help and dashed to the
rescue.
He took in the situation at a glance
and bravely tried to ride his pony, head
first, into the bear This was more than
his spirited steed could be forced to do.
Failing in this the boy turned the horses
head around and backed it up against
bruin. He was just in time
The bear was about to bring his pom
derous jaws down on one of the mems
shoulders when the little mustang, pro-
voked by contact with the unyielding
mass, let fly his heels with such force
as to literally kick the burly grizzly half
across the lane. The bear was so sur
prised by this sudden and unexpected
attack that he dropped his human load
and started to turn to face his new enc
my. Before he could get fairly into a
fighting position the little mustangs

now thoroughly confused and vanquish-
ed, dropped in heap.
1t was the work of only few mo-
ments' time to place the chain and muz-
zle on the defeated brute. The two men
were almost stripped. Their clothing
was in rags and they were badly scratch
ed and bruised in their encounter. They
were so grateful to young DUNCAN that
they wanted to make him present of
the bear, but the boy sensibly declined.
His timely presence and novel method
of warfare undoubtedly saved the lives
of the two men.-Philadelphi Inquirer.

The Rats Took the srorninz Paper.

A family of rats here have amazingly
disturbed the family in whose cellar they
dwelt. For several days in succession
the morning paper, which was left upon
the front steps of the house early every
morning, was missing Complaint was
made at the Office of the paper, and it
was found that the sheet had been prop
erly delivered right along. Some days
later neighbor, who had arisen early in
the morning, happening TO look out of his
window, saw two large rats upon the
doorstep of the house opposite He
watched their movements for a while,
and saw them take the morning paper
and disappear with it under the piazza
He reported what he had seen, and an
investigation showed that the rats had
burrowed down from beneath the porch
TO the cellar, and, in a secluded spot, had
built nest and were rearing a promising
batch of young. The nest was con-
structed out of Hartford morning news
apers.-Hartford Telegram.

Moving n Bridge.

The Norwich Bulletin says recently
the Pennsylvania railroad wanted a big
iron bridge, 25S feet long and weighing
$4,000 toes, moved from its place over
Mill Creek, near Lancaster, to new site
forty-tive feet away. Master Carpenter
Beard took the job He had 100 men to
help him. He made his preparations
leisurely, and. when the last train had
passed over the bridge. with his hundred
men and his trestles, rollers, jacks and
cranes he set 10 work. Unjust ffty-eight
minutes from the time the work began
the bridge was in its new place and a
freight train of such size as 10 require
two locomotives was passing over II.
Now the ancients couldn't have done
that in the same time if they had had
10000 men. What we know about iron
and its uses and how to work ii is worth
more to the world than all the lost arts
of all past ages combined.

At His Own Valuation.

A good joke is being told on a certain well
known police judge, who has become a terror
TO evil doers, which everybody may as well
know Recently well known gambler was
captured during raid on poker game run
ming in the central part OF the city. At the
trial the next morning the gambler denied
having played for money, but said chips were
used The ju6ge fined him SO, however, say
ing that chips" were money. After toe
docket of the day had been disposed of the
judge was approached by the poker player,
who wanted TO know if the judge still thought
that chips were'money. On receiving an an
swer in the affirmative he said: "Well, sup
pose I will have to pay my fine Coolly
counting out ten chips, be laid them on the
magistrates desk, and before the judge had
time TO recover his equilibrium he had dis
appeared. The fine was afterwards remitted
by the judge, but the ''chips" are still in his
possession as reminder Of his ruling that
chips were money.-Interview in st. Louis
