How to Cut Steel Easily.

1t is well known that smooth disk of
steel driven at high speed will cut in two
file held to the edge of the disk. This
principle does not seem to have been prac-
tically used, save in one instance named by
Mr.. Richards, the well-known American
engineer, who says it was employed in the
United States armory, at Springfield, Mass,
in preparing tenon or reduced section on
the ends of tempered steel ramrods, such as
were used in loading the muskets % years
ago. The material was hard and could not
be cut, so small wheels of iron about six
inches in diameter and one inch thick were
used, They were driven at G, 900 revolutions
per minute, and melted or abraded the
metal away instantly, at the same time
drawing the temper so that screw thread
could afterward be cut on the end of the
tempered rod.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT DECISION
Handed Down Yesterday by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.

Handed Down Yesterday by the Interstate
Commerce Commission
WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 18-The Inter-
State Commerce Commission to-day decided
the case of w. NJ. H. MacLoon versus the
Chicago and n Railway Company
in favor of MacLoon. The Chicago and
Northwestern connects at Jonesville with
the st. Paul road. MacLoon is merchant
at that point, having coal yards on the
St. Paul road, but receiving shipments from
points on the Northwestern road, and his
financial responsibility is not questioned in
this proceeding. Carriers operating in
that section of the country are mem
bers of car service association which
has established rule requiring the
payment of demurrage charges when cars
are retained by shippers more than 4S hours
after receiving notice that such cars are in
position to unload, and the rule is set forth
BY the carriers in their bills of lading
Upon all the facts in this case it is held that
the action of the Northwestern road in refus-
ing, after payment of freight and offer of
customary switching charges, to switch two
carloads of the coal to the connecting line
for delivery at the coal yards of MacLoon on
such line, unless he promised in advance to
pay any demurrage charges that might be
made, regardless of whether they were just
or legally enforceable, was unreasonable, not
withstanding MacLoon had previously re-
fused to pay demurrage charges on other
cars switched to his siding which he
had failed to fully unload within the time
prescribed by the rule, and the Northwest
ern, by retaining the coal in its possession
and demanding such promise from MacLoon
as a condition precedent to the performance
of its duty as carrier, subjected MacLoon to
unlawful prejudice and disadvantage. The
commission decides that MacLoon is enti-
tied to reparation, but the proof as to the
extent of his damage being insufficient, the
case will be held open for the present with
out order, and upon notice of adjustment by
the parties concerned the petition will be
dismissed

Electricity in Oyster Culture.

It might be thought that electricity would
be about the last adjunct to EMPLOY in
studying the culture of the succulent BIZ
valve. An application of it, however, ac-
cording to the Electrical Re,iec, of London,
has recently been made by Mons. Lacase.
Duthier, the well-known authority on
oyster culture. He makes use of the cleo
tric light in examining the stages of devel-
opment through which the spawn passes.
A glass cylinder is mounted in cylindrical
skeleton cage which serves as support: in
to this glass the water containing the spawn
is placed. At the bottom is plane, silvered
reflector; the cover forms parabolic reflec
tor in the center of which is fixed small
incandescent lamp. The refectors and the
sides af the glass cylinder act in such a way
that bat few rays of light emerge from the
apparatus directly, hence the liquid is sui.

Pleasures Of Memory.

What a blessed thing is memory!
How it brings up the pleasures of the
past, and hides its unpleasantnesses!
You recall your childhood days, do
you not, and wish they would return?
You remember the pleasant associa-
tions, while the unpleasant ones are
forgotten. Perhaps to your mind
comes the face of some friend. 1t
was once pale, sad face. 1t showed
marks of pain, lines of care. 1t
seemed to be looking into the here
after, the unknown future. And then
you recalled how it frightened, how
it recovered its rosy hue, how it be-
came picture of happiness and joy.
Do you remember these things1
Many people do, and gladly tell how
the health returned, how happiness
came back, how the world seemed
bright. They tell how they were once
weak, nerveless, perhaps in pain, GER
tainly unhappy. They tell of sleep
less nights, restless days, untouched
food, unstrung nerves. And then
they tell how they became happy,
healthy and strong once more. You
have heard it often in the past, have
you not? You have heard people
describe how they were cured and
kept in health? You certainly can
remember what it is that has SO helped
people in America. If not, listen to
what Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller, who
is known universally as the great
dress reformer, says: "Six years
ago, when suffering from mental care
and overwork, l received the most
pronounced benefit from the use of
that great medicine, Warmers Safe
Cure" All, now you remember.
Now you recall how many people you
have heard say this same thing. Now
you recollect how much you have
heard of this great Cure. Now you
are ready to admit that memory is
usually pleasing, that the highest
pleasure comes from perfect health,
and that this great remedy has done
more to produce and prolong health
than any other discovery ever known
in the entire history of the whole
world.

USED OIL IN A STORM,
Another Vessel Successfully Bullets the
Waves by Its Aid.

Another Vessel Successfully Bullets the
Waves by Its Aid.
NEW YORK, Jan. ,1a-The British bark
Edith Sheraton arrived yesterday from San
Domingo City. The bark experienced un-
usually heavy weather, and was frequently
tossed about like cockle-shell by the big
waves. Provisions, fresh water and deck
fixtures were carried away.
On January 4, while the vessel was scud-
ding along under single sail, violent puff
of wind tore it from its fastenings 1t was
decided to resort to the use of oil bags in
the hope of quieting the water. A number
of oil bags were thrown over the port and
starboard bows, and two were towed astern.
The effect was almost instantaneous. The
vessel righted quickly, and glided over the
tops of the waves, which gradually began to
subside.

road system, the G0ssiper heard a
prominent business man remark yes
terday, "the best plan is to build q
good road and then never let it get
out of repair. The railroads are kept
in GOO condition by men who are con-
stan.ly On the lookout for defects in
the roadbsd, and this plan can be
proftably and advantageously used on
country roads. To repair q road once
a year does not put it in proper con-
dition Immediately. To have GOOD
roads they should be under the daily
supervision of those who are employed
to keep them in order"
The Gossiper heard a railway of.
fetal say recently that this would be
one of the busiest Sc isons the railroads
had ever had. "The rush would not
only be great" said he, "but it will
start considerably earlier than usual.
1t will also be a season of cheap rates
and the public will find it possible to
do much travelling on comparatively
small amount Of money. One fare
round trip rates have been authorized
not only to all the great conventions
and encampments, but to dozens of
smaller meetings, which will be felt in
only local way. The big cOnven.
tians booked for this summer, how.
ever, are of national moment, and the
reduced rates are effective all over the
United Sta.es."
There are still some honest men
living ON this mundane sphere" re.
marked LA. Warford to the Gossiper.
"On the 18th ult., my uncle, VIM.
Warford, left here on the northbound
NJ. K. & 7. train for Kirksville. On
arriving at his destination he first die
covered the loss of his pocket-book,
which contained something over $50
in cash and some notes. He last re-
membered using it at the depot here,
and wrote me, asking me to make in
quiries. Later, however, he received
a letter from a friend at Odessa, say
ing the pocket-book and contents had
been found by the porter on the train,
and turned over to him for delivery"
The BAzoo regrets not being sble to
learn the name of this particular por.
ter.
eff there is one thing mere than
another which annoys q merchant, it
is the dust which settles and accumu-
lates after sweeping remarked a
business man to the Gossiper, yester.
day. "But think We have dropped
on to scheme which will in a large
measure do away with this annoyance.
Dampened saw dust has for some
time been accepted as the best thing
that could be used before sweeping.
Only recently it has been discovered
that its purpose can be served better
by dsmping broom in coal oil. 1t
cleans the floor better, and there is
apparently no dust escapes the fric.
lion of the broom with the floor. It
is bsipg generally used and serves the
purpose well. Of course this applies
only to bare and uncovered foors."
