ne Reiterates His Charge of immortality

WAsHtNqroN, November %. Her
man ]. SchuIteis, Tile enthusiastic
Commissioner Of immigration who came
across the oceanas \ Storage passen-
ger in the seryia, and subsequently,
created temporary excitement at the
Barge Office, was in the city to-day.
He came from New York last night to
see Secretary Foster, who was in New
York when Mr.. Schulteis left there.
The Commissioner was too much ex-
cited yesterday to read the newspapers,
and was greatly disappointed to learn
that neither Secretary Foster nor AS
5sistant Secretary Nettleton was in
Washington. Schnlteis talked to AS
sistant Secretary Spauldimg, however.
subsequently he called on Commits
sioner Owen. To both Of these officials
he reiterated his published account Of
immortality among the storage pas
sengers Of the Servia, in which he
came across the ocean disguised as an
immigrant. He did not submit writ
ten report, but, in conjunction with
the other Commissioners, will make a
report Of his operations in Europe.

Harnessing the Ocean Wave:

? The problem of utilizing the force of ocean waves has been solved to Q certain extent by an invention of Mir, N. O. Bond, of Fairfax Court House, Va, which is now in use at Ocean Grove, N. J. Mir. Bond has mounted gates in such 8 position out in the water that the wave coming in beats against them and shuts them. When the wave retires it opens the gate, to bang 1t shut again at the next advance. Connected with the gates are piston rods working the force pumps, and pipes connect the force pumps with tanks elevated to height of forty feet. The device is success. Not long ago 10000 gallons of sea water wore pumped into the tanks for use in lay ing the dust of the streets. The au- thorities hold that the salt water is better than river water for laying dust Mr. Bond is of opinion that by the use of big floats, instead of gates, he can get results six times as great But the pump operated by gatei is 8 prac- tical device which is destined, it ap- pears, to have wide use.-Boston Herald.

PATENTS AND PROGRESS.

Marvellous Changes Wrought by Invents
 ors in Half & Century. GsSE
 One need not be very old to have a distinct recollection of his daily life, its conditions and environments, fifty years ago, when the patent system of the United States was in it's early in- fancy. Then the country was almost entirely agricultural, for our grand career in manufactures and the indus trial arts was just beginning. It virt- ually began with the patent system the creation of the patent ofice--and 1t has actually kept pace with the de- velopment of the system, so that this magnificent progress stands as the in- disputable results of the system. In other words, we owe our splendid achievements in manufactures and the arts to the stimulus that the patent laws have given to invention. ~a
 Fifty years ago most of the people of the United States were clothed from the products of the domestic spinning wheel and hand loom. The itinerant shoemaker went from house to house, setting up his bench and plying his vocation in the farmers kitchens, There were no planing-mills; no shops for the manufacture of doors, sashes or blinds. All the work of the builder, including carpenters and joiners' work, was done by hand. The car penter, if good one, got one dollar day. Coal was consumed but by few families even in the large cities, and by nobody in the smaller towns. The tailors, like the shoemakers, came to the house and made into clothing the cloth woven by the mother and daugh- ters, with 0 little help from the fulling, mill that was generally near the grist- mill of the neigh borhood. The railroad and telegraph had not yet added their powers to the forces of civilization, This year, 1889, is no more like 1889 than the hand-loom is like the cotton factory. Better fifty years of Europe than a cycle of Cathay." Better one year of the life that Is lived under the new conditions than any number of years of the hard existence that was drudged out under the old conditions. It is only the hopeless pessimistic soul, the constitutional and incurable grumbler, that does not recognize the blessings that have come with the march of invention. For all those, let it be borne in mind, we are indebted to the system that has fostered invention and secnred to inventors the right to enjoy the products of their own brains and hands.

A Kings Curious Custom.

! Whenever King Dua took drink of palm wine, or ate his meals, one of his wives produced 9 hard brown nut, about the size of an egg, with one end cut of, and the inside hollowed out This nut he slowly placed on tho great toe of his left foot; this done, the palm wine or food was placed before him, and a slave boy came and stood behind him with a handbell. Every time he took mouthful of food. or drink of massanga or palm wine, he trapped the bottom of the canoe with the nut OR his great toe, while a tinl1le on the bell announced to all whom it might concern that Qua Ikolungu was eating or drinking, az the case might be.

BOUT ALARM CLOCKS.

According to an Old Watch sIaIer They Can Not Ee Depended On.
 My advice to those who find it nec- essary to rise early is, do not depend on a single alarm clock. The human mind is so constituted that it soon be- comes accustomed to oft repeated sounds, and while l an net prepared to say that an alarm clock will not be heard, l can safely predict that it will not long be needed by its owner.
 There are people whose habits are so regular that they hRbitually awake about the time their alarms are sprung. They would be surprised into wakefulness if their alarms failed to act, and it is quite probable that they would awake at about the same time without the use of such a clock. If the tone and character of the sound of an alarm clock could be changed once a week, the result would be very different One would then have no opportunity to acquire the familiarity which breeds contempt.
 once sold an alarm clock to a friend whose irregular hours rendered it difficult for him to riso i1 time for business. For few days he was de- lighted with his purchase. Che day he entered my store and declared that 1t no longer alarmed him at the hour for which -he-s it. He asserted that he was sure the time-piece was out of order. gave him another clock with a bell of a different tone. and told him to set. it a quarter earlier than his own, SC he would be awake at the hour of the latters alarm. He did so, and week later informed me that the clock had sold him faithfully per formed its duty every morning. He also purchased the clock l had lent him, and by alternating them and sometimes using both together man. aged to be punctual in his arrival at his office. Jewellers Weekly

F A curious fact Is that in France a man can will away his title to any one whom he may care to adopt, just ss he can ring or 8 sum of money. Thus, some years ago, one of the proudest titles in France went a-beg- ging. The old Due de Miromesnil was so poor that ho offered to adopt and leave his ducal title to any man who would insure him for the rest of his days (and be was old) the modest income of $2,O00 - 10000 francs. Oddly enough, the poor old Duke, whom ill luck would thus seem to have followed up to the last, found no eAe to bid for the proffered honor, and so he died in the most abject penury Were similar transm ission of nobility legal in England there arc twenty members of the House of Lords who would gladly, for a hand some consideration in cash, adopt the most unsavory commercial gentle man." and leave him all their honorA Paris Letter. *; ;.ssea,,, ;.ssea,. ..a,l:-:.4i :

 Among the passengers on 8 Western train the other day was woman very much overdressed accompanied by a bright-looking nurse-girl and self willed, tyrannical boy of about three years.
 The boy aroused the indignation of the passengers by his continual shrieks and kicks and screams and his vicious ness toward his patient nurse. He tore her bonnet, scratched her hands, and finally spat in her face without word of remonstrance from the mother. !
 Whenever the nurse manifested any firmness the mother chided her sharp, ly. Finally the mother composed her. self for nap, and about the time the boy had slapped the nurse for the fifth time wasp came sailing in and flew on the window of the nurse's seat The boy at once tried to catch it. 1
 The nurse caught his hand and said, eoaxingly:
 Harry mustn't touch. Bug will bite Harry
 Harry screamed savagely and began to kick and pound the nurse.
 The mother without opening her eyes or lifting her head cried out sharply: se A

INGENIOUS INVENTION.
An Apparatus Which Winds All Sorts of
 Clocks Aut0m atically.

An Apparatus Which Winds All Sorts of
 Clocks AutOm atically. |. : Otto Urban, in Gross-Kikinda, is we'll known as first-class watch and clock-maker. He invented an auto matic apparatus for winding pendulum clocks, which was much admired for it's simple and practical mechanism. 4
 It is attached to the clock on one side and to the door of the room on the other. A fine wire or catgut serves as a transmission agent. By opening and closing the door the mechanism is made to work and the clock Is wound. To keep the clock running for twenty-four hours 1t will be sufficient to open the door two or three times. 7@
 When the clock Is fully wound the apparatus is stopped till the descend ing weight is allowed to recommence its work. Such automatic winding in- struments do not cost much, and it's construction can easily be made solid and faultless.
 In Austria-Hungary the inventor has applied for a patent, but it seems his invention only comprises clocks rum ming by weights and doors. There is an unlimited field for some young genius to combine French mantel clocks with the parlor sofa when the gas is turned down; kitchen clocks with the range door, the coal bin Or the washboard; bedroom clocks with the front door latch and alarm clocks with the cats on the roof.-JewelerS'
