Scientific Notes,

A new clock OF large proportions is
being made for St. Paul's cathedral in
London. Someidea OF the size OF this
clock may reformed whenit is known
that the hammer which strikes the
bell weighs $50 pounds.
An Antwerp diamond-cutting firm
has received diamond which is claim
ed to be the largest yet discovered in
the African fields. 1t weighs in the
rough 400 carats, and when cut, pol
ished, and ready for setting the weight
will be at least 200 carats.
Contracts have been signed and ar
rangements perfected for the erection
at Duluth, Mimi, OF new iron-ore
docks, which will be the highest in the
world when completed. The floor will
be fifty-four feet above the water and
there will be consumed in the con
struction 100000 feet OF timber
The new docks will have shipping
capacity OF 100000 tons of ore d
year, and will cost 5000, 900. RI

The "GO-DeVii."

The peculiar little instrument known
as the ''go-devil," used in cleaning out
the big petroleum pipe lines, is de-
scribed by the Scientific American.
a spindle with ball and socket Joint
near its centre carries steel blades set
radially. In front and rear are three
arms, with guide wheels to keep the
spindle co-aXial with the pipe into
which it is inserted. A set OF oblique
vanes serves to rotate the blades and
q piston in the rear approximately
fits the pipe in which it is used. TO
clean the pipe it is inserted at apump-
ing station into the line. AS the oil
is pumped in it forces it forward at
about three miles an hour, the blades
turning as it goes and scraping the in
terror Of the pipe. A catch box is
provided at the other end OF the line,
at the next pumping station, to catch
it in as it reaches that point. For.
merly when a "scraper" was started
it's course was followed by the pipe
patrol, the sound it produced being
audible above ground. 1t was report
ed that it went faster up hill than
down, but this was probably a sub
jective phenomenon of the patrollers
The present practice is to let it go un
accompanied, and TO- time it's arriva
by the hours it normally consumes If
it's Journey.

WOOj Bent Like Wire,

The demand for wood bent into
shapes TO suit structural require
ments has steadily increased OF late
years, and ingenuity has been taxed
to fill it, says the Scientific American.
Pieces for ornamental furniture, in in
finite variety Of form carriage seats
and carriage bodies, car furnishings,
ship building, wagon making, and in
Vulnerable other departments make
demands on the art Of bending woods
for effects OF utility and beauty which
seem to have no end
a machine has been patented capa-
bic OF bending wood OF every descrip-
ton, from the size OF the most deli
cate stick to that Of the heavier piece
OF oak, 4 by 8 inches. OF course it
must be understood that the timber.
OF whatever size, is required to be
steamed to perfect saturation before
the operation OF bending; but per-
son unacquainted with the bending OF
woods can have very little idea of the
enormous energy required to bend
such q stick as that mentioned above
ssSz.-ile OF the most refractory woods,
such as Australian iron bark and
Tasmanian black wood, have been
successfully bent i'll this machine, and
while woods OF more cellular charac-
ter are better for the purposes OF
bending, it is believed that wood OF
nearly every variety can be satisfac-
torily bent.
The machine is composed entirely OF
iron and steel, is automatic in it's
movements, and weighs about four
thousand pounds.

are put i'll to equalize the pressure caus-
ed by the light wrapping of the wire.

so as to put the wire on at great
strain. Several miles have been wrap
ped already so thickly that the. tube,
several inches in thickness, is @runk
or pressed in until the diameter is re-
duced by 400 OF an inch, The Oh
iecr OF putting the wire on so tightly
is to develop the elastic resistance OF
the tube. In other words, the imme-
diate bursting stress comes upon the
wire. because the wire is COMPRISING
the tube all the while, and not until
the wire has been stretched little
could any strain come upon the rolled
steel tube itself.
This would not happen until the in
ternal pressure exceeded eighty thou
sand pounds to the square inch. In
the first trial with the gun it is likely
that ordinary powder will be used,
| calculated to throw proiectile weigh
ing five hundred and fifty pounds for
! about twelve miles and distance Of
three or four miles with great ac-
curacv. If tried with the new pow
ders, which produce less smoke, the
proiectile may be thrown for fifteen
miles. In either case the charge OF
powder will be about two hundred
and seventy down to two hundred
and fifty pounds. DR.. Woodbridge
says that the new powders are re-
ceiving careful consideration by the
| War Department., but since the eS-
plosive powder is greater than OF
those formerly in use, it is
not always possible to utilize the
new kind ior existing guns. The new
gun will be rilicd. The project will
not make Il complete revolution be-
fore reaching the muzzle. but as the
Iitllng gains III curvature as it goes
along the proicctile when it lea yes the
mouth will be whirling at I, speed
equal TO Il complete revolution in the
length OF the gun. In about two
months it will be ready to be sent to
I the Watervliet Arsenal, New York, for
, finishing touches, and then it will 90
to Sandy Hook to be tested. The
gun is OF the type used III forts, but
this one is intended for experimental
purposes rather than anything
else.
