A Mexico, Mo. special dispatch say

A Mexico, Mo, special dispatch sa5s:
R J. Jones, of this cl y, is constructing q
model of an invention that will reVo!u'ion-
lie the world and 3 avtlo such electricians az
Thomas A. Edison Mr.. Jones has invented
q machine that will ultimately do away With
both steam and electricity, and instead run
engines and ell kinds of machinery with
ei,her compressed air or water.
It is hydraulic engine, and is attached 10
the regular steam engine By valve thai
lets the compressed air into the boiler, and
by the simple ouch of 8 lever with The hand
sets the machinery in motion, which runs
psrIeiuaily until shut [ II by The opening up
of another valve that let's the &C mprsssed air
escape, the hydraulic engine keeping up its
work continually. Ely this means an er CINE
car be easily controlled or governed as II BY
steam and run ct an almost trivial cost. Mr.
Jones, the inventor, has model that hiss
been tried to his entire satisfaction, ana
he Ia now constructing one in this city,
II by IA inches, expressly 10 secure q
pstept. The Inventor claims that 10
wear there will be very few engines In HE
country run By steam. The model as shown
Ia one OF neatness, and Is the simplest piece
of machinery in existence. The hydraulic
pumps 10 connection will stand the pressure
OF over 700 pounds of compressed cir or
water o the tQusre inch, and the inventor
claims that it can be made TO stand pres
sure even grea or than this. Mr.. Jones' says
people may call it q fake and all such, but
eaid he:
San incessant study Of twenty years on
this subject has at last revealed to me the
secret of an invention that will no doubt
startle the universe, and after trying ms

The banana goes back TO the earliest
days. Alexander's soldiers. rs Pl:ny
says. joined the sagcs of India seated in
it's shades aud partaking of the deli.
cious fruits. Hence the name 'sapicn-
tu.u" given the plant. Which likewise
bears the name of Jupitcr's fair daugll-
ter Musah. Now it has been slowntl that
the banana is of Malayan origin. How
did it get to India end to South Amer
ica and Mexico? The feet of birds lave
borne seed full 10000 miles, willie
the cocoanut toated we'll nigh the
world around in the great ocean cur
rents.
But the banana has no seeds nor has
it casin. like the elobular cocoaIn!t to
float it around over the waters Then
it must have been carried by man. 1t
is significant that the AztccS had tr;ldi
lions of visits by people from over the
seas. while there was to confirm it an
admixture of the religion of the Brah.
minis in their own theology. Would
yon think THAT the despised brnana

on unburned gases in iiueS and lamps,
in which ilir writer stated that The
only burner in which lie found perfect
combustion was that of IL paraiiln oil
lamp when tie flame Was not turned
on full; when it is turned on full the
burned gus is liberated to the extent Of
twelve parts Of carbon and three of
hydrogen for every one.tliouSaiidth
part of carbon in the oil completely
burned.
The next nearest approach to coin
plctc combustion lle found to be in an
argand gas burner; tiilt is. when the
gas was not allowed 10 burn full. no
carbon and one-quarter Of part Of
hydrogen was left unframed per one
thousand parts uf carbon burned coln-
pletcly but when the gas was turned
on full one-tentil part OF carbon aud
two and a half pats OF hydrogen es-
capped unburned per one Thousand parts
OF carbon completely burned.
Next in point of producing perfect
combustion was tile Fray ordinary Hat

when twelve parts Of carbon and one
of hydrogen escaped unbnrned per one
thousand parts of completely buried
carbon in heating stove with three
