ELECTRICITY FROM WIND.
Windmill So Arranged as to Drive a
Two Horse-Power Dynamo.

A Windmill So Arranged as to Drive a
Two HORSEPOWER Dynamo.
In 1887 Professor James Blyth, Of
Glasgow, constructed at Maykirk a
windmill so arranged as to drive dy-
namo which charged an accumulation
for electric light and power purposes.
This motor had, however, only some
of the requisites for utilizing wind
power in generating electricity,
namely, being always ready to go,
without attendance, and in the wild
est gale. He was, therefore, led to
consider the revolving cups of the
Robinson thermometer, and has re-
Gently set up a windmill ON the same
principle. It is illustrated in the
figure, where the cups" c c c c, are
seni-cylindrical boxes attached tC

six feet long, revolving. Blyth fur

!" SHOULDER CYCLESr'
FRENCH SOLDIERS NOW HEAR
A NEW COMMAND.
A Bicycle Designed for Military Purposes
The Machine Weighs About Thirty
Pounds and Folds Up Neatly-New Bi-
cycle Drill Book.
Bikes on Their Backs.

The field. of invention in bicycle
construction has produced many nov
elites, some of which are not likely
to appear in any other than the orig
inal models A French mechanic has
turned out bicycle which may have
a future. 1t is built with view to
use by military cyclers, being so con-
structed that it can be readily folded
up and packed away when not in use,
and easily transported in quantities.
The intention of the inventor is to
have the wheels of a detail of mill
tia or soldiers transported in wagons,
and on arrival at the destination to
lie unpacked and used for reconnoit-
ering, scouting, etc. When any fight
ing is to be done the wheels are
packed away out of the road, leaving
the soldiers free to perform any duty
assigned to them.
The machine has a front driving
wheel twenty-five inches in diameter
and rear wheel of from ten to four
teen inches. The backbone has a
hinge about half way between the
two wheels, SO that the rear wheel
may fold over the front wheel. The
saddle is raised or lowered by stout
C-spring, which, with the steering
post and the handle, folds down over

ual for the use of military hicyclers.
Gen. Ordway is Adjutant General of
the District Of Columbia and an en-
thusiastic bicycler. Except in the
fact that the elements of the COM
mands to be drill ed are bicyclers,
and that their formation requires in
tervals of six feet instead of six
inches, the book is not essentially
different from the drill book for in
fantry The formation is in single
rank, and the cycle infantrymen 60
through about the same movements
that common or garden infantry
men do.
This form of bicycle may also prove
OF service to tourists, where it is
nece sary to travel part Of the dis
lance by wagon, train or boat, being
light and easy Of manipulation. A good
idea of the form Of the new wheel
both folded or packed and ready for
riding, can be gained from the ac-
companying illustrations.

Measuring MUSCLE strength.

A dynamUmeter for the measure
ment of muscular strength is being
introduced for gymnasium purpO.eS.
In future there will be no cropping in
the dark when the young college ath-
lete is taken in hand by his trainers
for preparation for the boat race or
the football match. Every important
muscle in his body can be test ID, and
its strength or weakness at once in
dicated. In this way mans weak
point is discovered without serious
loss of time, and special attention
can thenceforward be directed to-
ward the "leveling up" of his phys
iGue. The old method of testing a
mans muscle by its size, or even by
its hardness, will no longer be used,
and strength tests will supersede those
unreliable systems Of measurement.
The muscular strength Of the various
portions of the arms and legs can
now be differentiated. As a sample
instance of the p satellites Of the
new method. it may be stated that
by ascertaining the strength Of the
abductors OF the leg by the dyna-
mometer bad gait can promptly be
cured, as the proper exercise for the
weakened muscles can at once be de-
termined. The dynamometer is hung
on two heavy iron rods. placed in a
vertical position, with their ends
fastened securely to the floor. It can
be adjusted to any height--to the
waist, feet, or neck. The muscles
tested act directly upon lever which
is connected with a piston working
in a chamber filled with oil. The
pressure is transmitted to column
of mercury. and the result in pounds
is recorded in slender glass tube.

makes and breaks contact in mer
curry pool at the required speed. An.
other form Of governor merely regu-
lates the number of storage cells to
salt the current, and in this way the
machine is always doing some work.
The round and vertical iron shaft, S,
carries at it's lower end massive pit
wheel actuating train of gearing,
and driving a fly wheel six feet in
diameter From this fly wheel the
dynamo is driven by betting, and
charges the accumulation. The open
ing of each box is 10 feet long by 6
feet wide, and the machine going
with fair wind at ordinary speed
gives about two electric horsepower.
1t runs we'll in strong gale, and is
we'll adapted for small domestic in
stallations; but, Of course, the size
can be increased, and more than one
installed on windy sites. Professor
Blyth's plant is we'll adapted for light
ing houses in the country, where wind
is more available than Goals or water
power. Wind is Clearly form of
power, and the motor does not require
much attention.
