One Horse Power.

When men first begin to become IA
miliar with the methods of measuring
mechanical power they often speculate
ON where the breed of horses is to be
found that can keep at work raising
90, 900 pounds one foot per minute, or
the equivalent, which is more familiar
to some mechanics, of raising $50 pounds
100 feet per minute. Since $4,000 pounds
raised one foot per minute is called one
horse power, it is natural that people
should think the engineers who estab-
lished that unit of measurement based
it on what horses could really do. But
the horse that can do this work does not
exist.
The horse power unit was established
by James Watt about a century ago, and
the figures were fixed in a curious way.
Watt found that the average horse of
his district could raise 22, 900 pounds one
foot per minute. At that time Watt
was employed in the manufacture of en-
gines, and customers were so hard to
find that ali kinds of artificial induce
ments were necessary to induce power
users to buy steam engines. AS a method
of encouraging them Watt offered to sell
engines reckoning $4,000 foot pounds to
a horse power. And thus he was the
means of giving false unit to one of
the most important measurements in the
world.-Rider and Driver.

A Curious Mining Coincidence

The figure 9 is curiously and intimate
ly connected with all the great gold
mining excitements of the Nineteenth
century. The great Algerian gold bub-
BILE formed and broke in 1909. Next
came the Mantazan mountain craze in
1889, when solid powders of gold as
large as -four barrels were reported. The
California gold fever broke out in 1949,
and ragged until counteracted by the
Pixies Peak boom in 1859. Ten years
later, in 1869, "Old Virginy," the cele-
brated miner, struck the lucky lead
which made Virginia City and Nevada
famous in the mining annals of the
world. Eighteen hundred and seventy
nine came in on time with the Leadville
frenzy and the famous "carbonates" of
Lake county, Colo. Eighteen hun
dred and eighty-nine broke the charm,
but 1899 may make up for lost time,
there being two 9s in that date.-St
Louis Republic.

VOICES.

December's wind was keen and sh-ill;
The streets were desert, bleak and bare;
I could but inly feel the thrill
Of wintry sky and leaden air,
Made but more leaden in the glare
OF lamp and gas, as on the ear
There fell voice whose faded trill
Gave little sign of merrie cheer;
For Fortunes hardest shafts are hurlcA
On hearts that hunger through the world.
The face was thin and wan; the frock
So tattered, scanty, old and thin.
Was feeble screen to meet the shock
OF cold without and cold within;
Yet ever clear above the din
There rose: THE thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day" to mock
It did but seem her misery,
And Fortunes hardest shafts but hurled
On hearts that hunger through the world.
II will not leave thee nor forsake,"
Is yet the only voice that cheers
The aching heart Of man to slake
His weary lot of hopes and fears
Frail pendulum 'twixt smiles and tears!-
To find haven safe at last,
And anchorage therein to take,
From the keen wind and biting blast
Of Fortunes shafts, no longer hurled
On hearts that hungered through the world.

Ramie Fiber for Pipes.

Steam pipes are made of ramie fiber,
hardened under tremendous hydraulic
pressure, and possessing tensile strength
equal to two and one-half times that of
steel. The ramie fiber, or China grass,
has the property of being unaffected by
moisture; it will not shrink nor swell, it
Is a nonconductor of heat, it cannot
rust, and these features. together with
its great strength, are all desirable in
steam pipes, its utilization In this line
being regarded, therefore, as one of the
possibilities of the future.-New York

Hawthorne's Old Home,

The ancient fireplaces in the old house
in which Hawthorne was born on Union
street, in Salem, Mass, have been re-
opened after having been closed for
many years. The old staples for the
iron crane on which swung the kettle
are still in position. In the fireplace in
the room in which the romancer was
born there was found an ancient iron
shelf on which were several old fashioned
buckshot and rifle balls, just as they
had been run in the molds. There was
also an old time iron firedog, much worn

To overcome the serious results that
are experienced upon coming from pro-
tracted labor under compressed air, a
waiting chamber, where one can rest
and have the change of pressure take
place gradually, has been used of late,
and it has been found that some diseases
incident to such work are prevented and
some cases cured. The time for resting
varies from five to twenty minutes
