The weekly tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1891-1894, 1893-12-29

The Board OF Trade has done gooG
work for the city of Great Falls in the
past. 1t has been devoted 20 no clique
or faction but solely to the general wei.
fare Of this city, and with what splendid
results. Our business men now seem to
think that there is nothing more to do.
or il there is they seek to place the bur-
den upon the shoulders of others. This
is all wrong. II we are to keep pace
with our former growth it is the impera-
tive duty of every business man in Great
Falls to attend the meetings of the Board
of Trade and give it the support, not
Only Of his purse, but of his presence.
II is only by concert Of action that the
best results are obtained. If the Board
Of Trade is to do its most efficient work,
if Great Falls is to attain the greatness
We are all hoping for. it must be through
the active interest, aid ard counsel of
every business man within her limits.

A business man in this city who Is up
to his ears in the work necessary to
gather capital to float an enterprise, and
at the same time to keep information Of
the nature of it away from busy rivals,
found time last week to say: "Ddd you
ever think that patent does not patent
IN this country? Well, it's a fact. All
that thu patent Office does is to give you
a paper with some writing on 1t, but If
another man steals your idea and goes
to manufacturing your invention the
patent Office will not lift a finger to pro-
tect you or to stand by it's own decision.
The fact that you've got patent is a
point in your favor, But you've got to
hire lawyers and fight the thief in the
courts, and if he can stand it 10 hire
lawyers longer than you can that settles
you, and you might as well make him q
present of your invention. There are lots
of men in the country who are getting
rich on the discoveries of Nther people.
ALI they had to do was to lake 'em and
fight the real discoveries into poverty.
The patent Office, to be respected and to
be of any use, ought to have the power
to cause the stea1er of patent to be sent
to prison. New York Sun.

Lanes Geyser Clock.

The most curious and unique clock in
the United States, or in the world for that
matter, was constructed by Amos Lane OF
Amedee. Lanes curious clock, which, by
the way, is all face, hands and lever, is at
tacheu to geyser which shoots upward an
immense column of hot water every thirty
eight seconds exactly. This spouting never
varies the tenth of a second in its time;
therefore clock properly harnessed to it
cannot do otherwise than keep correct
time The lever mentioned above In con-
nection with the hands and face Of the
clock is SO placed as to be fairly hit by the
shooting column Of water, and every time
the lever is struck it moves the hands for
ward exactly thirty-eight seconds. Lanes
only trouble was to properly divide these
thirty-eight second strokes into hours.
During the time he was employed in con-
structing his novelty it is said that he often
quietly wished that old Dame Nature had
geared this particular geyser so as to spout
every half minute exactly.-St. Louis Re-

Effect of Music oil Animnls.

At the zoo the zebra, wild ass, deer
and ostrich went into paroxysms of rage
at the sound of tho piccolo, although
they had manifested various signs of
pleasure over the violin and flute. The
tiger was asleep, and refused to be awak-
ened by the fiddler and flutist. But
when the man with the piccolo began 70
play the animal sprang furiously to its
feet and rushed angrily up and down the
cage, flashing its tail. So extreme was
the beasts anguish that the piccolo man
speedily gave place to the flutist. The
difference in effect was at once apparent.
Tho tiger stopped, listened, Icy down
and purred like d Kitten in its enjoyment
of the grateful sounds, and presently fell
asleep in luxurious repose. - London

Photographs in Egyptian rombs,

The art of exploring the gloomy recesses
Of Egyptian tombs has made progress since
Belzoni, cropping near the coffin Of King
Cheops in the pyramid, "barglariously
broke the coffin lid" as Byron says. Mr..
Flinders Petrie, writing on the problem by
what light the work Of making the an
Gent inscriptions in these close and con-
fined repositories of the dead was per
formed, takes occasion to observe that in
our latter day excavations there Is no need
to invoke the electric light, very small
amount of reflected sunshine being enough
to work by.
Mr. Petrie has himself taken photographs
at Gizeh which require far more light than
is needed by a painter or sculptor, by
means of four successive reflections Of sun
shine from common sheets of tin plate, such
as biscuit tin lids, and he feels certain there
fore that with larger refectors there would
beno difficulty whatever in lighting any part
of the kings tombs more brightly than by
small lamps, though the lamps that the an
Gent Egyptians used were, in his opinion,
like our night ghts-feeble, but smokeless.
and capable of being used In the form Of "a

Pet Economics.

At dinner the other evening every

were his or her pet economies, and the
result was very amusing, each person
