THE REAL INVENTOR OF TELE-
GRAPHY. Weber was the flrSt VINO es-
tablished permanent workable teie-
graph line, and thereby demonstrated
the practical value of the electric tele-
graph. Weber's house was connected
with the astronomical and magnetic Cd
seryatories by line over two miles In
length. The signals were made OF the
deyiations Of the needle OF galyano-
meter to the right aud left and were In
terpreted according TO a conventional
aInhabet. The use Of interrupted or
reversed currents did not permit the
transmission of more than one or two
words q minute, but the speed was IN
creased to seven OF eight words by the
use of induced currents. The follow
ing first notice OF this telegraphic con-
nection was published In one Oh

FIRE Produced By IRON RUST
When oxide Of iron Is placed in contact
with timber excluded from the atmos-
phere, and added by a slightly increased
temperature, the oxide will part with
its oxygen, and is converted into very
finely divided particles of metallic iron,
having such an affinity for oxygen that,
when afterward exposed to the action
of the atmosphere from any cause, oxy-
gen is so rapidly absorbed that these
particles become suddenly red hot, ana
If In sufficient quantity will produce
n temperature far beyond the ignition
point of dry timber. Wherever iron
pipes are employed for the circulation
OF any heased medium, whether hot
water, hot air or steam, and the pipes
allowed to become rusty, in close con-
tact with timber, it is only necessary TO
suppose that under these circumstances
the particles of metallic iron become
exposed TO the action OF the atmosphere,
and this may occur from the mere ex-
mansion or contraction OF the pipes, in
order to account for many Of the fires
which periodically take place at the
commencement of the winter season.

ELECTRIC CAR INvENTIoNs.-Two
new electric car inventions are report
ed. One does away with the noise,
which is now such an objection to cleo
trio cars; the other applies to the wheel,
which, with the new patent, runs equal
~ well, whether the tracks are coated
with ice or not. The inventor is Mr..
John Christensen, OF Quincy, and his
inventions have stood the test OF snow
and ice with remarkable success. The
motor is the same as that heretofore
used, but the driving mechanism Is
radical new departure, expensive and
noisy gears being practically eliminated.
Further, instead of each pair Of wheels
being driven by separate motor, all
the wheels are driven simultaneously by
one small motor. The wheels themselves
have serrated rims, and, in connection
with the rest of the mechanism, make II
possible to operate, even when the rails
are covered with ice and snow.

MODERN SCIENCE.

Devices That Have Been Introduced By
Novelties.
A BOOM FOR FARMERS BoYs.-A
machine has been brought out TO pull
weeds entirely out OF the ground, or TO
kill them in case they are well rooted
by stripping off their seeds and leaves.
1t is adapted to be drawn by horses and
a sprocket drive on the drive wheel Is
connected to rotate for ard shaft by
which a drum is rota ted This drum
has longitudinal slots in its rim, in each
Of which moves comb, the teeth OF
which form an opening into which the
stems OF the weeds readily pass and are
chopped. The machine is said to have
given great satisfaction, being well
adapted TO pull up weeds in cultivated
ground in which the grain hal. appeared
without injury TO the grain.
FLooRs MADE OF PAPER. The wide
adaptabiity of paper is regarded as
likely TO lead To a solution or the
problem of rendering dwellings and
BUSINESS structures tireproot. 1T Is
now found that paper can be made per-
fectly tireproof, while remaining amena-
able TO the same treatment, in the mat
ter of coloring. polish and handling, as
most woods. Such a material offers all
the advantages of an ideal substance
for floors, and it can be used equally
well for the walls Of buildings. Besides
this, it can be utilized In the finish and
furniture Of houses.

HALL GOES TOO.
Another North Side Engineer
Who Talked Too Freely of the
Pumps.

Another North Side Engineer
Who Talked Too Freely of the
Pumps.
1t now transpires that William Twee-
die was not the only one of the engi-
neers at the North side pumping station
who was beheaded by the committee on
water works Friday morning, and the
belief that the action of the committee
IS traceable to the recent investigation
of the North side pump and what it
brought forth has become much
more general. Yesterday morning
Frank y. Hall was called to the
office of the water department and there
informed by Supervisor Mcconnell that
his resignation had been accepted to
take effect at once.
Mr.. Hall was seen after his visit to
Supt. Mcconnell, and on being asked if
he had shared Tweedie's fate, replied
that such was the case. To further
interrOgatOry he replied that he did not
had not been informed. He declined to
talk further, saying that at some future
time, perhaps, he would be heard from.
Aid. BarrowS, chairman of the COM
mittee on water works, said Yesterday
that if either Hall or Tweedie desired a
hearing they would be given one Tues
day morning. Supervisor Mcconnell,
Oh being asked about this matter, said:
The other day, some time between
Hall and Tweedie'S watch, the plug was
pulled out of the oil tank and about
1900 worth of oil flowed into the river.
The pressure was so low that for sew
eral hours we were obliged to depend
entirely upon the East side Jumbo
pump, which has capacity of only
100000 gallons. Had a big fire broken
out we would have been at the mercy of
the flames. 1t is necessary mere. as
everywhere else, to have men who have

ANOTHER IRREGULARITY.
This Time the Council Is Called
Down by the ComutrolIer

Down by the Comptroller.
1t is now stated that even the council
itself has been guilty Of all irregularlty,
and has appropriated money from the
permanent improvement fund for street
grading contrary to the provisions of
the charter.
Aid. Lowell on Friday night moved TO
amend resolution passed OH Jan. IL,
ordering the executing of a contract for
grading Twenty-ninth street, from Lake
street TO Hennepin avenue, and Lake
street, from Twenty-ninth street to the
west city limits, SO as to read land out
Of the permanent improvement fund"
The ordinance as amended was
passed and signed by President Potter,
and the next day was approved 10y Mr..
Potter, as acting mayor.
The contract for the grading in Ques
ton has been awarded to German and
Peterson at IA cents per cubic yard,
and now City ComptI olier Armstrong
has refused to approve the contract. In
this he is upheld by Mayor Winston and
City Attorney Russell, although the lat
ter says that the action would probably
hold if the council was convinced that
the improvement was for the general
good. City Comptroller Armstrong
said yesterday:
Street grading and paving are paid
for out of a street fund raised 10y tax
levy on the ward residents in which
the improvements are to be made. Un-
less some provision had been previously
made with reference to this particular
improvement and put in the fund when
it was appropriated, it is clearly within
the scope OF the meaning of the law,
which says it shall not be done. ! will
refuse to acknowledge the contract"

HE WAS UNGALLANT.
Miss Mamie f. Hale Arrested for
Larceny, But Promptly Dis
al

charged.
Miss Mamie E. bale, highly con-
nected and well-known young lady of st.
Paul, was submitted to the indignity of
being confined in the city lookup Fri
day night, and yesterday forenoon APP
peared before Judge Elliott on charge
of grand larceny. The complaint in
the case is made by Albert Periolet,
clerk in the Palace clothing store, who
was formerly on friendly terms with
Miss Hale and her family, and who
claims that she took from him dia-
mond stud valued at S75, and refused to
return it when he wanted 1t.
From this evidence it appears that at
the time of the alleged larceny Miss
Hale was visiting a sister in this city
and that she and her sister went to din
ner at the Parker house in company
with PerIolet and friend of his. Dur
ing the progress of the meal Miss Hale
took the stud from Periolet with his
consent and fastened it OIL her dress,
where she continued to wear it, and as
he did not ask for it did not return it
when they parted. Before he did ask
for the stud it, with quantity of other
jewelry, was stolen from the young
iady's room by burglars, and she was
therefore unable to return it. Periolet
admitted that the stud was taken with
his consent and that he did not ask the
young lady for it when they parted,
and the case was dismissed, the fact of
the burglary being satisfactorily estab-
lished.
Periolet's action is looked upon as
spite work, he and Miss Hale having
had a falling out.

a care in handling the pumps,
and Tweedie. 1 have been told,
said that he didn't care whether
anything happened or not as
long as it was not on his watch. The
steam coils around the oil tanks, where
by the oil is kept at certain tempera-
ture, have been frozen during Tweedie'S
watch, and it would have taken several
hours to thaw them out. These are
a few instances of the general run of
things during Tweedie's watch. The
WOrthington pump people have offered
to guarantee the pumps for five wears
provided we selected engineers aecepta-
bic to them and who understand their
pumps"
1t will be remembered that during the
recent investigation of the workings of
the Northlngton pumps the principal
witnesses were the three engineers,
Andrew BergStrom, Tweedie and Hall.
Bergstrom was first 10 testify, and after
the first meeting was taken into the
private Office and severely taken to task
by Mcconnell and Rinker for the testl-
mony he had given, which was
not particularly complimentary to
the Worthington pumps, and conse-
quently reflected upon Rinker.
After that he was more circumSpect i'll
L
who had not been seen. or could not be
disciplined, expressed themselves freely
and unreServedly upon the pumps. the
result being very unsatisfactory to City
Engineer Rinker.
AT that time it was freely stated that
Rlnker would have their scalps, and the
recent action of the waterworkS COLI
mittee is no surprise to some of the al
dermen who believe that Rinker has
been working ever since to accomplish
just what has happened. 1t is also
stated that, although Bergstrom took
reef in his sail, he still incurred the dis
pleasure of the powers that be, and is
doomed TO follow the others. One of
the aldermen said yesterday:
1t IS surprising TO me that nothing I'M
satisfactory was discovered i'll the work
of these men until after this investiga-
ton. Up to that time they had always
been considered competent men. /
can't understand how Tweede could be
expected to report that his Oil supply
had given out when he knew that ouly
short time before the oil tank had been
full. Those men did not know that the
Oil supply had been turned into the
river. Then there is something about
the opening of the valve which ran the
oil off that might be explained. There
is something interesting in it il we
could only get at it.
Another thing | don't understand is
the summary manner in which these
men have been let out. 1t is custom ary
III that business, as in almost every
other, to give man some notice, but
these engineers have received none.
It's peculiar piece of business.

spine which produced paralysis from
the waist down, and although he has
fingered along for five months, he suf-
fered terrible agony, which, during the
past month, has been intensified by
blood poisoning, which was the direc.
cause of death. The exposition man
agement has been severely criticised
for carelessness in this connection, and

Another Hotel.

Plans are being drawn and estimates
made to transform the Window block
into hotel. The property is owned
by c. NJ Loring and the Window heirs.
An architect is now at work on plans
for the transformation. C.. NJ. Lorfng
says of the project:
The building is now five stories high. and
the upper story is a hall above the usual
height. We will raise it some higher, and
construct on the fifth floor large dining
room. The hall below will be partitioned
into rooms as will many of the large oftee
rooms. and the large court that now exists in
the center of the building will be covered at
the roof. and about the court on each floor,
will be the usual halls The idea is to have
the lobby on the ground floor, with the main
entrance on Second avenue. where the en-
trance TO the park board rooms now are. Tae
building is large enough to make a hotel of
POO rooms. and it will not be temporary
affair, but q permanent hotel. AS to whether
1t will be done. cannot say at present, until
l receive an estimate of the cost from my
architect and, of course. find out what the
second parties to the deal wish to do.

MRS. CONLOW TESTIFIES.
She Says She Knows Nothing
About Miss Browns Child.


On Friday afternoon Miss Nellie
Brown took out writs of habeas corpus
compelling Mrs. Garbaith-C onlow and
George F. Roberts to appear in court
yesterday with Miss Browns child.
They appeared in court, but without
the child. Hector Baxter appeared for
Miss Brown, but was unable to
learn anything concerning the
child'S whereabouts. He asked Rob-
erts where his wife was and
Roberts stated that she was at Chicago.
He knew she had little girl with her
named Maggie. She took the child
there when Miss Brown commenced suit
against Conlow. His wife. he said, was
stopping with friends at Chicago, but
he did not know who they were. He
was asked to name friend of the fam
lily at Chicago, and he named a Mr..
Smith. He didn't know where Mr..
Smith lived, however, and couldn't re-
member his first name.
Mrs. Conlow didn't know anything
concerning the whereabouts of the
child. She stated that she had seen
the child. She went out walking with
Conlow and Mrs. Roberts once and Con-
low carried Maggie" She said Con-
low told her that he was not Maggie's
father.
Judge CAVITY saw that Baxter could do
nothing with the witnesses, SO he con-
tinued the case two weeks. This was
