The Life of Submarine Gables,

A hard and fast law as to the life of a
cable cannot be laid down, for the duration
of the sheathing wires is governed by more
than one element. The quality of the gal
vanizing, the presence or absence of such
protection as compound tapes. or hemp,
and the physical and chemical nature of
the bottom, are. considerations which must
be taken into account. Submarine cables
may have a life of more than ten years.
They can be successfully repaired at even a
considerably greater age. There are now
in existence and in working order about
A, 900 knots of cables, having life of fifteen
years and over; of this amount some q, 900
knots are twenty years (and over) of age.
There are several instances of cables now
working over twenty-five years old, but
these are principally lines of unimportant
lengths, and lying in shallow water. The
cables we have cited, says The Electrical
Review. are laid in all portions of the
globe, and submerged in all sorts of depths;
and although the companies owning them
have spent, and are prepared to expend,
considerable sums in repairs, we do not
think that the complete renewal of each
section every ten years has entered into
their calculation. Present experience would
lead us to allot to submarine cables laid
under favorable conditions an average life
of from thirty to forty years, but, as before
stated, no hard and fast figure can be given.

A CLEVER TRICK.


The secret lies mainly in the manner of
holding the glass. Instead of grasping iG
as if you were about to drink, take it with
the palm outward and upward (as shown
in the diagram at the upper cornerl. Swing
the arm boldly around and describe a
circle without pause, but without exces-
sive haste, in the direction shown by the
arrows in the illustration. The glass will
be found when it has completed the circle
to be held in the hand in the manner repre-
sented by the remaining figure of the cut.
This is the position in which it is to be re-
placed on the table. By beginning with
the glass half filed with water and in
creasing the quantity as skill improves,
one will be able after a little practice to
perform the experiment easily. 1t is de-
sirable to make the first attempts in the
open air. An important point to observe
is that there should be no hesitation or un-
evenness in the circular motion.

CENTRIFUGAL FORCE.

A Simple but Interesting Feat Which
Illustrates a Great Natural Law.
You may often see at the circus or else
where juggler place glass of water in a
hoop and whirl it rapidly round and round
till it makes you giddy to look at it, with
out drop of the water escaping. The feat
is based, as most people are aware, on the
action of centrifugal force.
Here is method of performing similar
feat, not less startling, with the glass of
water alone, no other apparatus being en-
ployed. The glass standing before you on
the table, you are to take it in your hand to
describe with it, at arms length, COM
plete circle in the air and to replace it on
the table without having spilled single
drop of the LIQUID.

When a Belt Jumps or a Pulley.

When a Belt Jumps on Pulley.
1t does make a tremendous racket, to say
nothing of destruction of property and
danger to life, when belt jumps off a
pulley and proceeds to wind itself down
around the shaft. A belt has no business
to jump off the pulley, and will not do it if
properly proportioned for the load it is to
carry, we'll taken care of and not over
loaded. Still, these conditions are hard to
be met, and where a supply of prevention
has become exhausted few pounds of cure
must be used. A tin tube running loose
upon a shaft will do no harm except to
make little noise. When a belt jumps off
on such a tube there is no chance for it to
wind up. A good deal more noise is the
result, and less danger and damages, ac-
cording to the Manufacturers Gazette.
