A Notable Invention.

A problem which has been puzzling
mechanical engineers all over the world
ever since steam as motive power
came into general use has at last been
solved, it appears. British papers state
that an engineer living in Glasgow has
lately completed, after nineteen years
experimenting, device for steam en-
gines by which all steam is returned
back to the boiler after doing its work
in the cylinders. In several cases, it is
said, he has installed his engine and it is
at work with extraordinary results. In
one case, in a textile factory, the engine
with his device is doing as much work
with one ton of coal as it formerly did
with ten tons. The problem Of how to
make use Of the vast amount of steam
everywhere blown off into the air after
doing certain work has long occupied
engineers, and its thorough solutit I
would be worth many millions of dol
lars in many ways.

sNvIcTs COMPELLED TO LEAVE
ny Tennessee People Express Hostility
to Convict Labor.

I
NASHVILLE, Tenn, August ia
ipcial from Cowan, Tenn, says: This
forming after the convicts entered the
lines at Tracy City, about 1000 armed
icn walked into the stockade, and, after
earring it of everything of value, set it
II fire and burned ii to the ground.
They then marched to the mines and
,rdered the convicts brought out and
ook charge of them and the guards,
oaded them in box cars and ordered the
onductor and engineer to leave immedl-
tely. Being covered by guns they were
oliged to obey.
The train arrived here at p. m. Capt.
burton with Is guards have 800 convicts
in charge and under control. Between
Sewanee and Monteagle the convicts cut
The train in two, and 10 or Is made a
break for liberty. Several shots were
fired. Mat Wilson (white) was killed and
Tom Smith (colored) wounded. Six OF
eight made good their escape. The wires
ire cut between here and Tracy City and
nothing further can be learned of the in
surgents.
Sensational reports come from Coal
Creek regarding tile conduct of Tennes-
sees standing army. The citizens claim
that the watchers need watching, and
they have assumed an aggressive position
toward them. They claim that the sol
diers amuse themselves by firing oyster
cans loaded with mud from their cannon
into the village, and that the gatling gun
is fired recklessly into the town. The
complaint has stirred up much bad feel

A Mysterious Gripsack.

Last evening, special officer Conlon
found in the old burying ground at the
West End, black gripsack packed with
women's gowns and underclothing and .
pair of Al D boots wrapped in paper
bearing the imprint of A. c. Junkins &
Co., fashionable milliner, Main street,
Saco. The boots were newly re-soled
the gowns were red calico and greer
wooden, and the underclothes were de
cidedly dirty. Nothing, except the wrap
ping paper, was found to indicate the
ownership. The grip was rain-soaked
and had evidently been in the grave
yard some little time. 1t was unlocked
and perhaps left there by some thief who
stole it from the railway station anG
thought the contents of too little value tt

cold Booty"

There are very few English tars who
"plow the water" who have not heard
of ''Old Booty" the name given to the
volcano of Stromboli, but not many of
them know whence the nickname came.
According to George Augustus Sala, the
famous London editor, the legend is that
one Captain Booty, master mariner
trading to the Mediterranean in the
Seventeenth century, became SO notori-
GUS for drinking and swearing that he
was seized upon by the fiend and carried
off to the interior of Stromboli, from
which he has continued ever since to
utter profane language by means Of
tongues of fire and puffs of smoke.

Horse-Cnr EtlQuette.

The young man who has drilled him.
self and been drilled by his dancing
school teacher in the proper ways of Ell
tering and leaving a room when accom-,
panied hy lady, frequently gets very
much mixed up when lie begins gon2
about on horse cars with young
woman.
Perhaps he has been the fortunate pos
sesSor of Il mother or sister who has ac-
companiei him often enough to give him
points upon horse Car etiquette. If he
has not, he is more than likely to make
some terrible blunders.
He usually gets the girl on the car all
right Sometimes, when the car is
crowded, he is bold enough to request
several wide spreading passengers tn
move closer together and make "a at
for his companion. But the unsophisti-
Gated youth seldom ventures SO far.
If there are plenty of seats, he is all
right, however, although not once in
ii ty times does he think to seat him
self on the side of his companion that
is near the horses, so that i'll talking to-
him she will not have to turn her back
10 Nard them-a position that is disagree
able to many of them.
Then when he pays the fare he does
not always have the change at hand,
hut he usually has to unbutton his over
coat and descend to the depths of his
trousers pocket to find the needed coin.
Meanwhile the girl, if she is young,
looks the other way and tries tc
appear unconscious. If she is an Older
Woman she does not care.
Byand-by the car fills up and some
one is obliged to stand. The well
trained young man has the knack of
rising at the right moment, lifting il
hat at the correct angle and yielding
MS seat with manner that certainly
ought to call forth an expression OF
lhanks-though it doesn't always.
The unframed young man, on the
other hand, sometimes keeps his seat be-
cause lie does not kno V how to give it
up, or perhaps he cherishes the Doors be-
ief that it is not worth while to stand
'or the sake of a woman wien its an
even chance whether or not she thanks
him.
Even if he rises, it is in weary, per-
functory fashion. He nudges the wo-
man to attract her attention, does not
lift his hat to her words of acknowledge
ment, OF to tie salute of the man who
accompanies her any more than he
would uncover his head in response to the
courtesy of stranger who gave a seat to
lis companion. lie does not mean to be
rude, but he either knows no better Oh
does not care to take the trouble to be
civil.
There are several different ways in
which man signifies his desir. to leave
II hOrse-car. Sometimes he makes a
mad rush for tie door, stumblcs over t e
feet and skirts of hapless and hopeless
passengers. and waits on the platform
holding the door open until the car comes
to Il standstill so that the woman with
him may descend safely.
Again he signals the conductor from
his seat, and when the car stops stands
aside to let his companion make her way
out and get off uuassisted. 1t is Il boon
for which she thanks the gols when he
lotifes the conductor at the right mo-
ment times his exit so as to Teacl the
platform just as the car stops and gets o
the ground in shape to aid her in heI
descent

striking fact i'll connection with the
phenomena of death is that dying per
sons as a rule have no fear, even though
thcy fully comprehend that dissolution
IS fast taking place. This we notice even
in executions, where the hanged are al
most invariably reported as having died
game. Physicians and surgeons in gen
eral have decided that death following
disease or injury is seldom accompanied
with fear. Disease duls the intelligence
50 that the situation may not be fully
aomprehended in all cases; or, again. the
patient may be suffering terrible pain
and may look upon death as relief. 1t
Is generally believed now by psycholo-
Gists, surgeons, physicians and others
who have given the subject attention,
hat nature, by kind provision, has
prepared the body and mind for the
III hit of the spirit. 1t is well known
