All the speed obtained must be from
gearing, FOR the reason that if all control
was removed from the balls their gravity
would increase until they would fly Off at
a tangent, even If the angle of A. on which
they descend was reduced to the merest
slant. The power would not amount
to much if applied directly from the
big wheel. This wheel is thirteen inches
in diameter, and the arms which fasten it
TO the upright shaft give it a leverage
OF about inches, when the power is
taken from a 2-inch wheel above the rest
ing place of the screw shaft. From this
Cogyed 2-lnch wheel two horizontal shafts
extend at right angles with the main
shalt. On one of these the inventor has
rugged his governor, or balance wheel
and the other operates a miniature pump.

wheel is geared to a = inch pinon on the
hOrl Ontal shafts, and still other gearing

the main wheel.
At a recent exhibition Of the working
model, the machine demonstrate its
power TO the amazement Of all who saw
it, The three marbles were dropped into
the screw and the brake removed The
two marbles on the deep screw imme-
diately commenced to roll down and the
single one on the shallow screw started

the spectators was permitted to apply
the brake and move the model into an
other room. Removing the brake, IL re-

model, so that the increase is not in the
nature Of an experiment There is no
limit to the size of the motors and the
number or sets of screws and balls that
may be put into each, but the inventor
says two sets will generate all the power
that the machine will stand when built
of ordinary machinery strength.
Antonio Tore is a thorOugh-going Bo-
hemian and has realized and spent half a
dozen fortunes upon inventions. He was
born in Cuba of Italian parents fifty
years ago, and learned mechanical en-
cheering as a boy in England. His row
ing disposition has carried him into every
country on the globe where his trade is
known. on and on he has spent about
fifteen years Ia America ten Of them in

vious patents have been a vacuum sugar
pan, an automatic fan, car track and a
railroad brake The profits all went as
soon as earned, however He has been at
work upon his present invention
about three years. The suggestion
