THE HYAMS CASE.
Canadian Officials Intend to Convict the
 Prisoners,

TORONTO, Aug. 31. Though tho Hyams murder trial will not commence till Nov. 6, the crown officers have already begun to shape out their plan of cam paign. Tho authorities claim to be thor oughly convinced of the guilt of tho ac- cused men, and no effort will bo spared to convict them.
 Another effort will be made by tho crown to put in evidence relating to tho alleged attempt to insure Mrs. Harry Hyams' life. Tho attorney generals de- partment has been hard at work raking up authorities to prove the admissibility of such evidence. Whether it goes in or not, however, the crown will oppose tho exclusion of the jury during argument on the point. Thus they will bring the mat ter in directly before the jury.
 The same tactics will be pursued with regard to the evidence of Hyams' past ca rcer, to testify concerning which Detect ivo Heidelberg will be again brought from New York. Tho crown has, more over, had detectives at work inquiring into tho religious beliefs of tho defense S witnesses. They have found, it is stated, that two of thcm belong to tho Secular society, and this fact will be brought out in order to impress the jury with tho fact that a man who is not of tho orthodox creed is not reliable.

Compressed Air.

According to a statement mado at the Montreal meeting of the American So- cicty of Mechanical Engineers by Su- pcrintcndent Heggem of the engine works at Massillun, O., the advantages of compressed air have been very pro- nounrcd in the foundry operations of that establishment. The air is supplied ny means of three compreSSors. A bell driven compressor, Is by 10 inches ill size, runs constantly and supplies most of the air that is used, and the working pressure is from 50 to 70 pounds; 1le inch by inch steam driven duplex compressor is operated by pressure valve, so that when the pressure of air falls below 60 pounds this compressor is put i'll motion to supply the deficion- cy-tho air supply being thus main tained automatically. \ smaller steam driven compressor is also kept as a re- serve ill ca>c of accident to either of tho other machines. The air is stored in three reservoirs uf 250 cubic feet capac- ity each, and these reservoirs arc placed i'll those parts of the works whore the greatest volume of air is required, and, owing to the intermittent use cf the air, tho compressors are equal to furnishing sufficient amount, and at A cost of something like 8 per day of ten hours

M Daudet, the eminent French au- thor, was for long timo an usher i'll 8 second rate school on pittance which scarcely sufficed to keep body and soul together. After time he grew sick of this hard and unremunerative kind of work, and then made lis way to Paris, where he arrived with only capital of two shillings and bundle of poems. Ho was fortunate enough to find pub fisher for tho latter almost at once, and it was not very long before he obtained journalistic employment, which kept him going until he found novel writing sufficiently lucrative to provide him with a living. Now he can command almost any price he likes to ask for his books and articles, and must be a very wealthy man. Paris Letter.

Where Franklin Flew His Kite.

Colonel Enoch Taylor of this city, speaking of the researches of the sa- wants into the vagaries of lightning, re- marked that probably there were few people who ever gave thought when they crossed Spring Garden street in the vicinity of Thirteenth street that they were walking over the spot where Benjamin Franklin flew his kite. Yet such is the fact. A diagonal line from the southeast corner of what is now known as Thirteenth street to Spring Garden will about cover the space in which Poor Richard" drew lightning from the clouds. It was bare field then, with few farms and country houses scattered around. Bostonians fondly imagine that it was on Boston Common Franklin conducted his expert ments That's mistake.

A most ingeniously contrived machine for engraving on glass, insuring the rap i'd and economic production of decora- tive work in that line, as also in metal manufactures of every variety, is de- scribed in The English Mechanic. Among the merits claimed for this de- vice is the fact of there being no limit to the number of objects that may be operated upon simultaneously, with a perfect uniformity of workmanship, and further, the facility with which this machine, being of 12 multiplying pow
 er, can be operated upon and replaced with fresh objects, is another important characteristic, and three different pat terms may be produced i'll one hour on q single machine The construction of this apparatus fulfills the desideratum of great simplicity, it would appear i; that is, the globes, or whatever is to be engraved, arc fixed on platforms in two upright cylindrical forms, these plat forms being raised or lowered as desired by means of handle, and tho engrav- ing needles are applied or let off by a touch of tho treadle-the pattern to be followed resting on a board at the back.

 MACON, Ga, Aug. 31.-An excursion train on the Southern railway carrying the Knights of Pythias excursion from this city to Indian Springs for picnic left the track between Holton and Popc's Ferry. The baggage car and two passcn- ger coaches turned over. J. A. Kennedy of this city and Mir Hancock of Americus, Ga, were killed, and almost every person in the two coaches was hurt moro or less seriously. Some of them are likely to die.
 Thero is no way of accounting for the accident, as it is said tho track was in perfect condition. So far as can be ascer- tained the train was not running at a high rate of speed. It was well crowded with members of the lodges, which had mapped out an elaborate programme for the days enjoyment.
 At the place where the wreck occurred there is considerable fall to the ditch, and, as the two coaches turned over, their occupants were dashed from side to side of tho car and crushed against its roof.
 Physicians have been sent for, and work was started on the making up of wreck ing train us soon as the news reached this place. The station and railroad offices are already besieged by friends of those on the train, the news having spread through the town with rcmarakbl0 rRpidikx.
