A Railway Car Cushion Cleaner.


The French have brought carpet
cleaning machinery to a high state
of efficiency. One of their latest
machines not only beats the car
pets Of railway cars, but also
brushes the cushions while draw
ing of the dust. With this machine
operated by one man $50 carpets
or cushions can be cleaned in an
ordinary working day. The ma
chineconsists essentially of strong
frame containing an endless band.
heaters revolving brushes, exhaust
fans and suction pipes. The car
pets are attached to the endless
band, the revolution of which
brings them under the influence Of
the heaters. These consist Of
twelve stout leather straps fixed on
the iron arms Of a horizontally
revolving drum. Meanwhile the
cushion is being cleaned by the
backward and forward motion of
the contact with cylindrical
brushes. The dust raised by the
heaters and brushes is drawn by
the fan into the galvanized iron
pipes and discharged by the
current Of air outside the building.

A Novel Rubber Suit.

Sportsmen will be interested to
know that a rubber combination
suit for their express use has been
placed on the market. The suit
consists Of tights, boots and panta-
looms, which terminate at the waist
in float somewhat resembling a
horse collar, with the pointed ends
at front and rear. This float can be
inflated and debated at the will of
the wearer. While designed espec-
tally for persons hunting in South
ern swamps and bayous, it can be
used as safety float in any waters.
Tin paddles can be attached to the
feet of the hunter, who can thus
guide himself in deep water while
handling his gun with perfect
freedom.

A Bicycle for one-Legged Riders.

A safety bicycle has been inven-
ted for One-legged riders. 1t is pro-
PEELED either entirely by the hands
or in conjunction with pedal driv-
ing. The usual handle bar is
bent so far around as to virtually
make one handle. This handle
has an up and down motion, which
by means of cranks causes the revo-
luton of a toothed wheel fixed
about half way between the handle
bar and the axle of the front wheel.
The driving of this wheel is effected
by means of a chain running
around the toothed wheel, and one
fixed on the hub of the front wheel
similar to that on the hind wheel
of the ordinary safety.

A SENSATIONAL SCENE.
Fierce Runaway on King William
Street Yesterday Afternoon.

Yesterday afternoon about one
o'clock as Jesse Fry was on his
way home on Madison street, he
was the star in first class run
away accident, and today he is
wondering how he ever came out
alive.
While driving along King Will
liam street with the fine big horse
he recently purchased from Bob
Tendick, strap attached to the
shaft of the buggy became loosened
Mr.. Fry's colored coachman
noticed it and called his attention
to it. AS Mr.. Fry was about to get
out of the vehicle to attend to it
the horse suddenly became fright
ened and made squirt.
The colored man could not check
the fierce animal and Mr.. Fry was
thrown out backwards. His feet
got caught and he was dragged a
distance of fifty feet.
After he was released he was
picked up and taken home. He
was injured about the shoulders
and hips, but is able to be out to-
day. Mr.. Fry says the colored
coachman was one of the pluckiest
fellows he ever saw. 81 wouldn't
have given fifty cents for that mig
gers soul, when L saw the buggy
turning a corner on one Wheel"
said he this morning. "Why, that
buggy is just like baby carriage

STRAIGHT OF 1T.
Not Judge Bryan Callaghan's, But
Bob Callaghsn's Watch Was

Recovered.
Detective Hughes requests this
publication in the case of the arrest
OF Sam Brown and Matte Mac. He
says the watch stolen was ladies'
size silver watch, owned by col
ored man named Bob Callaghan,
who is the driver for DR.. A. Graves,
Jr. He lost it over a year ago. Sam
Brown was passing where Bob was
building a chicken fence for Mrs.
DR.. shropshire. The fence was
put up in a roll and Bob asked
Sam to help him carry it in. Sam
did so, and as they were lifting it,
Bob's watch caught and tore out of
his vest and fell out of his pocket.
When he came back to look for his
watch after carrying the fence in,
Sam and the watch were,gone. Soon
after he saw Sam and he denied
any knowledge of the watch.
Callaghan often, when he saw
Brown. would remark that that
fellow had his watch.
About a year ago Brown was
very intimate with the Mac woman
and from a letter found by man
named Murray some time ago
written by her to Brown it has
developed that Brown gave her the
watch and told her how he got it.
She wore it until they had a quar-
rel and she wrote the letter which
gave the snap away. On account
of Judge Bryan Callaghan having
lost a fine watch about the same
time, Murray brought the letter to
Detective Hughes and he traced
the whole matter step by step un.
til the arrest followed.
Matte Mac at first denied writ
ing the letter to Brown, but yes
terday she admitted it.
