An Illustration Of How . Yacht May Ac
coEaplish This Feat.

An mustration Of How . Yacht May Ac.
conplish This Feat.
Every yachtsman knows that . ship
can sail faster than the wind: that is
to say, if the wind is blowing ten
knots an hour. ship may be making
twelve or fifteen knots an hour. Now.
1t is obvious that if the ship is sailing
straight before the wind it cannot. at
the utmost, travel faster than the
wind itself is blowing-as matter Of
fact, it will travel much more slowly.
IT. oa the other hand, the ship is sail
ing at an angle with the wind, it
seems st first sight that the wind must
act with less effect than before, but as
a matter of fact the ship not only
sails more quickly than before, but
more quickly than the wind it
self is blowing. Let us consider the
difficulty in the light of the following
experiment: Place bali at one side
of the billiard table, and with the cue,
not held in the ordinary manner, but
lengthwise from end to end of the ia
BILE, shove the ball across the cloth.
The cue here represents the wind, and
the ball the ship sailing directly before
It; the ball Of course travels at the
same rate as the cue. Now, suppose a
groove in which the bali may roll be
cut diagonally across the table from
one corner pocket to the other If the
ball be now placed at one end of the
groove and the y he held horizontally.
parallel with - long sides and moved
forward across the width of the table
as before. the bali will travel along
the groove land along the eue) dag
onally across the table in the same
time as the cue takes to move across
the width Of the table This is the
case of the ship sailing at an angle
with the direction of the wind The
groove is considerably longer than the
width of the table, more than double
rs long, in fact. The ball, therefore,
travels much faster than the cue which
impels it. since it covers more than
double the distance in the same time.
1t is in precisely the same manner
that tacking ship is enabled to sail
faster than the wind

meetings of the board were harmonious.
Both Mrs. Lease and Mr.. Freedom were

mem bers of the board to transact business
without them, no conflict came up: no
body presided, and no reorganization was

SECRETARY OseoRN'S LATEST IDEA.
TOPEKA, Kan, jan. 5-Secretary of State
Osborn has evolved remarkable scheme,
which has already taken root among the
members of the populist party. He de-
elares that two hours ought to make a
lays work. He says that ten or twelve
hours day was all right before the era of
laboriDg g-saving machiney, but, with all
lbe improvements which have been in
vented in machinery, he estimates that
one operator can produce much in a
given length of time as twenty could
seventy-ive years ago. Mr.. Osborn says:
cit Is estimated that two hours of labor
each day performed by every nble-bodied
person will produce all the necessities,
luxuries and ornaments that the world
can consume, as well as perform all the
necessary business of the age. If this be
true, 1t must necessarily follow that for
Every operator employed ten hours per
iay four others must be forced into idle
ness, or the world will be overstocked
with products. This vast mum Der of such
oilers depending upon their labor for su b.
pistence must materially reduce the mark
1T for the consumption of all products.
This again must reducs the number of
producers and create more idleRess, which
must continue to go Oh while the condi-
lions remain Unchanged"
