A Non-Dur..Ins Fly wheel.

In the works of the Mannesmann Tube
company. in England, there is heavy
fly wheel ingeniously designed to be alb
solutely free from any danger Of burst
ing. As this wheel is about twenty feet
in diameter. weighs over seventy tons
and runs ut 24O turns per minute. it was
feared that cast iron wheel would be
unable TO stand such centrifugal force.
The wheel consists of cast iron hub. to
which are securely bolted two circular
plates or disks of steel about twenty feet
in diameter. Round the periphery Of
the wheel thus formed about seventy
tons OF No. wire was tightly wound.
thus binding the whole securely togeth-
eF and making wheel that is practical
ly beyond possibility of breskage by
centrifugal power. The circumference
Of this great wheel travels at the rate Of
2.s5 miles per minute, about three times
as fast as the most speedy express trains

A sample of the first run of sugar from
a beet sugar factory situated at Grand
Island, Neb.. which has been received
at this Office shows this new product TO
be as fine as any sugar sold in the mar
ket 1t is of clear white, sparkling crys-
tails. and sweet and pleasant to the taste.
It cannot be told from the best quality
of cane sugar. A circular accompanying
it says that thu factory has capacity Of
$50 tons of beets. or 275 barrels of gran
ulated sugar Of the finest quality, over
e9per cent. pure. each twenty -four hours
The factory Is fitted with machinery
from France, where this industry had its
first development. It's success has been
so great that its capacity will be imme-
liately doubled, and numerous factories
viii be erected in the vicinity to produce
raw sugar for the refiners. The circular
further says: unfortunately our season
proved to be the dryest known for seven
teen years. and some farmers failed to
raise not only corn and small grains in
paying quantities. but beets as well.
Many, however. have raised crops which
show profit of from $50 to $50 per acre,
and it may be truthfully asserted that
our farmers are jubilant and that the in
dustry has come ITO stay."-W atertown

VictImized Reporters.

Among the amusing pranks played by
reporters, the practical joke played on
his colleagues by Peter Finnerty, the
oldtime Parliamentary reporter, remains
one OF the best on record. The special
victim in this case was reporter named
Morgan O'Sullyan who feeling too
drowsy during dull debate to keep his
eyes open, asked Finnerty to supply him
with any important speeches made dur
ing his nap, and then went to sleep.
When he awoke, Flnnerty gravely in
formed him that during his nap there
had been an important speech delivered
by Mr.. Wilberforce on the virtues Of the
Irish potato. Morgan, never pausing to
think that the subject had a suggestion
OF the ludicrous, would not be pacified
until the speech had been dictated to him
by Finnerty. The speech, entirely Fin
nerty's concoctlcn, made Wilberforce
say: "Had 1t been my lot to be born and
reared in Ireland, where my food would
have principally consisted of the potato
the most nutritious and salubrious
root-instead of being the poor, infirm,
stunted creature you, sir, and honorable
gentlemen, now behold me, should have
been a tall, stout, athletic man; and able
to carry an enormous weight. / hold
that root to be invaluable, and the man
who first cultivated it in Ireland regard
as benefactor of the first magnitude to
his country" Morgan took all this in,
and so delighted was he with the speech
that he gave 1t TO his colleagues, with
the result that next morning every paper
of note Except Finnerty's paper, the
Morning ChrontcIe) had this amazing re-
port OF Wilberforce's great speech on the

A Great Glass.

A distinguished assemblage OF mathe-
maticians and scientists gathered enthu-
siastically around plain packing-box
In Cambridge, Mass, q few days ago to
look at piece of glass. 1t was ten feet
in circumference and some three inches
thick, but as it lay in its bed OF excelsior
its value exceeded SEQ, 900, and the spec
tators regarded IL with the greatest af-
fection.
The place was the Office of Alvan
Clark, the noted telescope maker, and
the glass was the lens for the new tele-
scope to be erected on Wilson Peak, in
the Sierra Madre Mountains, near Los
Angeles, 5000 feet above the sea, for the
University of Southern California. IL
will be the largest telescope In the world,
the object glass being feet inches in
diameter, or five inches more than the
famous Lick telescope. The tube will
be sixty-fvo feet long, and the moon
will be brought by IL within one hundred
miles OF the earth. The whole is the
gift Of K. +. Spence, President of the
First National Bank of Los Angeles.
The glass was cast in Paris, after no
less than 10 attempts, and is insured for
its full value in two Boston companies.
1t Will take fully two years yet to
grind and polish IL to the required focus,
and, when to all appearances complete,
the human fingers will be called into
play to finish its surface. IL is ground
down with red oxide OF iron and polished
with beeswax.
When in position the telescope is ex-
pected to perform wonders. II will have
a Photographic outfit which will be three
times larger than any now in existence
1t will cost $4,000 to transport the glass
TO Los Angeles

covered the track and another west of
the same point buried the rails over three
feet under the earth. Between Sims and
Sweet Briar the bridges we're washed
away as we'll as some of the track. The
first bridge out of Mandan, which spans
the Little Heart river, was disabled, like
many of the others, by the washing away
of the lower supports. There we're nine
bridges either completely gone or badly
damaged. No trains left Mandan west
until Monday night at about 6 O'Clock,
(Mandan Time,) three passenger trans
left about the same time but their pro-
gress was slow and no trains arrived
from the west until about 7 o'clock yes
terday morning. When a passage was
effected the trains from both ways we're
run as sections and as quickly as posi-
bic the large number OF trains which had
c~ongregated we're disposed of. In the
meantime the passengers in Mandan
amused themselves by a friendly game
of ball or perhaps by wandering in the
grove and plucking the wild rose. It
was a busy time for Mandan and few
were sorry when the trains started once
more on their journey.
