THE MODERN STEAMSHIP.

Impossible TO Guess What Speed May Not
K.s Reached Hereafter.
Twenty years ago it was thought by
many that the limit as to size, speed
and economy had been reached. At pres
ent it seems that the draft Of water at
the harbors and the cost are the limits
that will prevent further development
Oh present lines. With different ma
terial for construction, with liquid fuel,
and other improvements or inventions,
it is possible that 20 years from now
one may look back at the Lucania with
her 81. 6 knots as we look back on the
Germanic and Britannia of 1874 with
their 16 knots.
The steam pressures on ocean steam
ers up to 1850 did not exceed 20 pounds.
With the earlier vessels, with only 5
to 10 pounds OF steam, it was possible
to stop leak in boiler "by pushing a
rag in the hole.' AS late as 1846 a
prominent firm Of engine builders in
England stated that from 10 to IL
pounds was what they used for mer-
chant vessels. By 1880 pressure had in
creased to from so to 80 pounds, and on
the introduction of steel for boilers pres
sures went up to about 100 pounds by
1885, and now boilers are being built,
for large steamers, to carry 200 pounds.
Special types Of boilers for torpedo boats
and other uses carry much higher pres
sure.
The Ericsson machinery weighs only
Sc pounds per horsepower. This last is
for torpedo boats and high pressures
and can not yet be approached for large
vessels. On the trial trip the Minneapo-
lis developed co., horsepower, and
the total weight of all the machinery,
with the water in the boilers, was 1, 961
tons, so that the weight Of machinery
for each horsepower was about 80
pounds. Had the Minneapolis machinery
been of the same relative weight as that
of the Powhatan it would have weighed
over 8, 400 tons, or 1000 tons more than
the Minneapolis herself weighed ON her
trial trip. -Chautauquan.

The city probably takes greater
rank from historical standpoint than
from anything else, for on its site, not
over 20 years ago, camped the Indian
in all his primitive glory, and around
its borders occurred several massacres
and sharp skirmishes between the
citizen soldiery and the dusky red
man. Relics of these skirmishes, in
the shape of ruins, etc., and of the
fast disappearing nomadic tribe still
abound and are in good preservation.
Coal of crude character, not
containing enough carbon for good
burning, and queer deposit of min
erals for paint are found along the
banks of the river in this city, and the
latter, if developed, would undoubted-
ly prove profitable to the investor, one
fact which has certainly escaped
attention.
AS yet the city is dependent, in a
great measure, for its prosperity upon
the agricultural resources adjacent to
it, and thrifty population cultivat-
lag rich soil has yearly increased its
wealth, and to-day our farmers own 80
per cent. of the money on deposit in
the three state banks Of the city.
Redwood Falls has a population of
over 1900 souls, large number of
magnificent brick blocks, two Of
which are hotels, aside from the in
dusIries mentioned above.

THE FALSE MUSCLE INDUSTRY.

Shapely Calves Made to Order For BIZ
cyclists In Welsh Factories.
There is one department of industry
which, by the general admission of
those engaged in it, is exempt from the
stagnation which SO largely prevails.
Indeed it is in remarkably fourishing
state, and the men and women employ
ed at it are kept busy from morning to
night. It is that which deals with the
supply Of artificial sinews and muscles
in order to give to limbs the plumpness
and symmetry which nature has denied.
The great demand at the present time
is for we'll shaped calves for the legs,
and for some time the purveyors Of
these embellishments could not make
out why SO many of them were wanted,
because the requirements of the ladies
of the ballet and burlesque actresses are
pretty much the same all the year
round, and there was nothing going on
to occasion an unusual request for the
articles.
But they have now found out the rea-
son. They are required by lady cyclists
who wear knickerbockers, and who,
naturally enough, desire to exhibit to
mankind the limbs which are not COW
cred by these bulky garments in as
shapely and attractive form as posi-
BILE. The stuf6ng required for this pur-
pose must be of the best kind, and it is
also necessary that the mold should be
we'll fitting; otherwise the lady cyclist
would become kind of scarecrow on
wheels instead Of thing of beauty.
The articles, therefore, cost more than
the ordinary calves, and it may accord
ingly be ssld that the latest fashion
among women not only encourages cycle
making, but also aids the artistic mp.
holstery Of the human figure in the
highest form. Cardiff Wales) Mail.

CULTURE IN CHICAGO.

4 Trifing Mistake Has Made Things Un-
pleasant For Noted Author.
When the president of that exclusive
literary organization, the Twentieth
Century club, introduced DR.. A. Conan
Doyle to a Chicago audience Friday
evening, he committed an error which
is likely to give rise to serious compli-
cations and to involve DR.. Doyle in en-
barrassment DR.. Doyle is not theo-
logian-at any rate, not professional
theologian. He must have been startled
when the Hon. George E. Adams an
nounced him as Canon Doyle. Presum-
ably many Of the cultured men and
women who were present at the Twen-
tieth Century club reception take it for
granted, upon the authority of the club s
president, Mr.. Adams, that DIR. Doyle
is canon, all associate perhaps Of
Canon Farrar, and high in the councils
of the august church Of England. We
hear it rumored that Mr.. Higinbotham,
president Of our late ever glorious and
ever lamented Worlds fair, has not yet
disabused his mind of the serious error
arising from Mr.. Adams blunder; that
he addresses DR.. Doyle as Father Doyle,
and that at luncheon yesterday he said
to his distinguished guest, "Will your
reverence ask the blessing?"
We don't know how true it is, but
we understand that DR.. Doyle has been
invited to ELL the pulpit in a num-
Der of our churches, and that he is be-
sieged with letters addressed varfously
"Rev. DR.. Doyle, "Rev. Canon Doyle, !"
''The Very Rev. Canon Doyle" etc.
Altogether much confusion has been
precipitated by the little slip made sim
ply in carelessness by the president of
the Twentieth Century club. We think
it incumbent upon that leading literary
organization of the west to set about
correcting the error it's executive has
innocently sprung upon the public and
upon very distinguished visitor. -

Two Important County Gases Com
promised and Judgment Taken.
The Suits Against the Bondsmen OF White
hill and Berg are Ended mt Last and
the County VIII Get the
Money Next Year.

The fall term of the district court has
been in session for a week and will hard
ly last more than week longer. Judge
Fall was detained at Las Cruces until
Tuesday so that two days were lost last
week. On his arrival he commenced at
once to organize the juries and get to
work.
While jurors were being secured the
docket was called and cases were set for
trial or otherwise disposed of. On the
civil docket several cases were dismissed
and number continued to the next
term, but most OF the cases were set for
trial during the term, though it is not
expected that many will be tried.
The first jury case was that of Ride
nour, Baker K Co. VS.. G. J. Price, case
which was brought from Sierra county
on change of venue. The case was one
OF considerable Importance and occupied
more time in the trial than was expect
ed, as it did not get to the jury until
Monday afternoon. The argument con-
sumed nearly a day, every detail of the
case being presented to the jury by the
attorneys. The jury was out some time
but finally agreed upon verdict for the
defendant.
Besides this case there were two others
from Sierra county, one of the Sierra
Land and Cattle Co. VS.. G. j. Price and
the territory VS.. n. Armijo, a murder
case which was tried in Sierra
county and appealed to the supreme
court which granted new trial. This
case and the case OF Frank S. Deal are
the only murder cases set ior trial at
this term.
The case of the territory VS.. Armijo
was on trial yesterday. There were Is
witnesses sworn in the case.
1t is quite probable that several crimi-
nal cases will have. to 90 over until next
term for the reason that the funds are
not sufficient to continue court until the
docket shall have been cleared.
One of the most important cases on
the docket was disposed of by agreement.
This was the case OF the county and ter

ritory against H. H. Whitehill and his
bondsmen. When he went out of office
it was found that he was short over $780,
600 wit.Ythe county and territory and he
turned over his property to his bonds
men to secure them. The case was
brought to recover the money and it has
been continued from term to term until
last week when it was compromised,
the attorneys for the defendants allowing
Judgment to the stmount of $1,000 to be
taken in favor OF the county with
stay OF ex, tution for six months.
The bondsmen OF the ex-sheriff are: S.
Lindauer, Henry Holgate, J. A. Lock-
hart, j. w. Fleming, W. II. Taylor,
Richard Hudson, j. P. Stanley and NJ.
w. Bremen.
1t is supposed that the value OF the
property turned over to the bondsmen is
more than sufficient to cover the judg-
ment so that the bondsmen will lose
nothing. The amount due the county
was considerably more than double the
amount OF the judgment, and the re-
mainder OF the amount sued for was due
the territory.
The territory gets no part OF the
amount OF the judgement as it was found
that the bond had been drawn in such a
way that both the territory
and county could not get judgment, and
it was decided to leave the territory out
of the question entirely.
Another important compromise which
was made this week was the settlement
OF the Berg bond case. A compromise
was also agreed upon in this case.
Judgment was taken against six OF the
bondsmen, or rather Judgement was
taken against each of the six bondsmen
for one-sixth of the amount of the claim.
The six bondsmen against whom the
judgment was taken are H. l.. Pickett,
Estate OF A. +. Walcott, NJ. w. Neff,
j. p. McGrorty, John Corbett and j. H.
Tracy. The judgment in each case
amounts to little over 81, 100 which the
bondsmen will have to pay as the estate
OF w. Berg is of no value.
There yet remains about 1000 of
school money due from ex-Treasurer
Berg to the various school districts OF
the county and suit will be commenced
against his bondsmen for this amount.
This bond is said to have been lost and
there was for some time some doubt as
to whether the bondsmen could be held
for the school money. The securities on
the school bond are Deming men.

Two or three nights last week were
pretty chilly. The thermometer regis
tered several degrees below freezing
point.
This is examination week at the nor
NAL school in some of the branches.
The pupils have done good work since
the school has been opened.
The hotels and restaurants here have
been doing big business for the past
two weeks and there has been a noticea-
BILE increase in trade among the mer-
chants.
The Pacific mill above town is pound
ing away day and night on ore from the
Pacific mine at Pinos Altos. This is one
OF the few mills in continuous operation
in this part of the territory now.
The eagle. (Silver City, N.M.) 1894-1???, 1894-11-21

The bondsmen of Mr.. Berg against
whom judgments have been taken will
have six and twelve months in which to
pay the amounts due, as stay OF execu-
tion was granted for half the amount for
six months and stay of twelve months
for the other half.
The total amount of judgments
against the bondsmen of Whitehil and
Berg is nearly $4,000 and if this amount
can be collected it will put the county in
pretty good shape financially. 1t will
pay off more than half of the total float
ing Indebtedness OF the county at pres
ent and it is expected that the new law
which will go into effect on the first of
next January reducing the fees OF the
county officers will bring the expenses of
the county well within the revenue so
that there will be considerable amount
with which to pay off Indebtedness
which has already accrued.
Besides this there is large amount of
money due the county on account OF de-
linquent taxes which, ii it could be col
lected would help very materially
toward bringing the county out of it's
bad financial condition.
The bond cases, ii they had gone to
trial, would have consumed a considera-
BILE portion OF the time OF the court at
this term and it was deemed best by all
concerned to compromise them and get
them off the docket.
Mr.. Berg is now in Mexico and will
probably not return to this territory
soon as there is an indictment against
for embezzement of county funds. He
was treasurer at the time of the Dane
bank failures and had the money in the
Deming bank.

MAN IN THE MOON.
One of the Most Popular and Perhapt
Most Ancient of Superstitions.

Man in the moon is the name popularity
given to the dark lines and spots upon the
surface of the moon which are visible tt
tie naked eye, and which, when examined
with telescope, are discovered &c be du,
to dcpressions aud mountains on the sur
face. 1t is one cf the popular and perhaps
one of the most 2ncisrt superstitions in
the world that these lines and spots are
the figure of a mar ieaning on fork or!
which he carries bundle of thorns OF
brushwood, for stealing which on a Sun
day he was confined in the moon.
Some Of those versed in such lore ex
plain that this story undoubtedly had its
origin in the account given in the fifteenth
chapter of the book of. Numbers, thirty
second versc, of man stoned to death for
gathering sticks upon tho Sabbath day
With the italians Cain appears to have
been the offender.
The Jews have some Talmudical story
that Jacob is in the moon, and they believe
nis face is visible. Bishop wilkins writes
that, las for the forme of these spots some
of the vulgar thinke they represent man
and poets guess 'tis the boy Endymion
whose company she loves SO well that she
carries him with her"
