A Little Child,s influence.

Bernard j. Schmitz, a wealthy farmer
of Atchison county, Kan, went to Ger
many last November to visit his old
home, and was arrested for deserting the
German army thirty years before. The
matter was placed in the hands of the
United States minister in Germany, but
all efforts to secure Schmitz's release ap-
peared fruitless. Schmitz's eleven-year-
old daughter, however, wrote letter to
the emperor of Germany from her home
in this country, setting forth in "a child
like manner the facts in the case and ask
ing for her fathers release on his birth
day, which came on the 4th of Last month
The letter reached the emperor ON the
9th, and he was so touched that he is
sued a pardon for Schmitz, who is now on
his way home.-Cor. New York World

Smokeless Powder and Gun Cotton.
One of the most interesting and singu-
lar features developed by the new navy
is the matter of explosives.
The most important advance made in
this general line in 1891 was the procur-
ing of a smokeless powder. This was
developed by Professor Monroe, of the
Naval Torpedo station, and has surpass-
ed the somewhat dubious expectations
of it. 1t has been successfully used in
the simpler and lighter guns and also in
the complicated finch rapid fire guns.
With charges of only one-half the weight
of the old powder, it has fred projectiles
nearly 200 feet second faster than the
shots of the old powders Travelled. One
beauty of it is the fact that it is not in
jured by water.
Gun cotton is to be extensively used
ON the new vessels. The high importanc
of this material and the certainty that
the limited facilities for its production
would be source of embarrassment in
case of war, led the naval department
last year to offer an order for $4,000
pounds of gun cotton to the Duponts, of
Wilmington, Del, manufacturers of
naval explosives, ON the condition of the
establishment of a complete plant for the
manufacture of gun cotton in large
quantities.-D. d. Bidwell in New York

Dancing killed Him at seventy-nine.

James McCarty, of Gaskil township,
one of the most unique characters of
Jefferson county, and perhaps of the
state, died Friday, aged seventy-nine
years. His death was caused by over
heating himself dancing in the open air,
for old as he was McCarty could still
keep step to tune in very lively fash
ion. He would often play the violin and
dance to the music for half an hour at
time, greatly to the amusement of the
onlookers. For years his occupation has
been hunting. Up to the time of his last
illness he was remarkably active

10 Protect Live. Of Railroad Men.


An ingenious and simple instrument
has been devised for the protection of
surface men at work on the railways
The inventor, Sir William Arrol, was
Led to apply his mind to this matter In
consequence Of the numerous eess.eailties
which have lately occurred among that
class of railway servants in England.
The instrument consists of a steel spring
connected with a portable electric bat
terry and bell by coil of wire two or
three hundred yards long. When the
spring has been bolted into position on
the inner side of the rail and almost flush
with the top of the rail the battery is
carried to the neighborhood of where
the workmen are engaged, the connec-
ton being kept up by the coil of wire,
which is unwound to the necessary
length.
When train comes along the spring
is depressed by the fanges of the wheel
as they pass over and two metallic but
tons, one on the under side of the spring
and the other on the upper side of the
sole plate, are brought into contact and
complete an electric circuit supplied
from the battery, ringing the bell at the
battery and thus warning the workmen
of the approaching train. The instru-
ments are to be kept at the signal boxes
along the line so as to be readily avail
able by the workmen. Sir William Arrol
does not intend to patent the invention
His sole desire is to render the surface
mans life less dangerous one and he
gives all railway companies permission
to manufacture as many as they please
