Ginning Cotton by Electricity.

For the first time III the history of the
world cotton has just been ginned by
electricity at the Agricultural and Me-
chanical College of Alabama, at Auburn,
thus furnishing an entirely new applica-
ton of this marvellous form of power
For the purpose of illustrating the
transmission of power by electricity the
class i'll electrical engineering, under the
direction of their professor, A. f.
Mckissick, connected the generator at
the dynamo room of the college with
the motor at the Statum farm by wire
1900 feet in length, the distance between
the college and the farm. BY running
the dynamo ut the college the motor at
the farm did the work of the ten horse
power engine formerly used. 1t ground
oats and corn for cow feed and ginned
cotton, doing the work in simple, etfec-
tive manner. with small percentage of
loss.
This application of electricity not only
affords a convenient source of power,
but also gives increased exemption from
danger of fire from the use of an engine
1t is designed that hereafter all work
of this character required at the farm
shall be done by electricity.-Cor ST.
Louis Globe Democrat.

HAVING FUN
But Passengers Grew Frightened and
Looked for u Terrible Fight.


There is staid solemnity about the
average railroad conductor that Is
simply awe inspiring. He passes throu-
the car in his monotonous round -
punching and collecting tickets with
sort of subdued. mournful air. as II
there was nothing in life for him but
punching and collecting tickets. Your
tickets. please" he says in tone of per-
suasive blandness He never smiles; he
never jokes: he punches the tickets
proffered him in n sadly perfunctory
way This is when he is on duty
The other day struck upon conduc-
tor of New Jersey Central train when
off duty He was different man. He
was dressed differently. having doffed
his regulation blue and brass buttoned
uniform. ! soon found that this fellow
was full of fun way down TO the bottom
of his boots. and that the conductor of
the train on duty had likewise vein of
humor rs rich and fertile. though care
fully concealed.
Your ticket, please" asked the con-
ductor of the train rs he came to wherc
the conductor off duty was seated
Il have no ticket" was the response.
Then you will have to pay your fare" :"
Il will pay You when l get to my
journeys end and not before" said the
off duty conductor in = tone of irate
firmness. Railroad companies have no
business to exact fares in advance. How
do know whether the train will get
through or not. The train may run off
the track and we may all be smashed to
pieces, and then I'd be out my fare No,
sir, ! have made up my mind that from
this day on, and have to ride great
deal on the cars, that shall never buy
u railroad ticket and never pay my fare
before get TO the end of my journey"
Il am not here to be trified with" re-
torted the conductor, with an air of in
tense savage gravity. How far are you
going"
TO the end of the route"
Not unless you give me ticket or
pay your fare"
Il have told you what will do. |
won't pay you before ! get to my stop
ping place"
Then snail put you OH the tram.
Il dare you TO do it. only hope you
will. for then the company will have to
pay me money enough to make me in
dependent for life"
wait till | get through punching
tickets and I'll bounce you off this train
so quick you'll think you have been
struck by lightning"
DO it II you dare. Do it now: don't
wait on my acce- It; don't wait for any
thing.
The two talked so loud and appeared
to he SO angry that the attention of all
the passengers III he car was directed
to them. They seemed rs mad as two
wet hens, that popular formulated
climax of Indignation. 1t was the cause
of some fright TO the passengers. but
then those two conductors were having
big lot of fun all to themselves and
they kept it up with increasing vehe-
mence at intervals to the end of the
route.-New York Herald

The superintendent of the New York
State Lunatic asylum has discovered
novel cure for lunacy. 1t is nothing
more nor less than frequent doses of the
national game. Says he: Il believe that
baseball is a homeopathic cure for luna
cy. 1t is kind of craze in itself, and it
gives the lunatics a new kind of crazi-
hess to relieve them of the malady which
afiiicts their minds. | have noted our
most melancholy patients watching base
ball play. laughing heartily and even
immoieratcly at the mistakes of the
playing and the funny incidents of the

while sitting around the baseball field
Is beneficial TO most of them. and cur

Captain Holdane swore at the ships

you're wish were answered. Captain
Holdane was convicted by the sailors

church for all ages.
Perhaps you may do rs much as the
Scotch sailor who just tipped his cap
the earth and the heavens are still re-

How soon our life here
Grows old with the year
That dies with the next December.
