Monday evening the board OF
trade met at the usual place and
transacted considerable business of
importance. The committee on
the organization of fire
department reported progress and
the general desire for the organiza-
ton in the town. The committee
on the Rocky canyon wagon road
reported having been over the
route and selected the best, via
Grave creek, and estimated the
cost at 81, 900. Although the esti-
mate cost exceeds former estimates
and at these times renders the
building difficult, the board decid-
ed to not abandon the work until
it was wholly impracticable. They
therefore appointed committee of
five, consisting of w. J. Smith, G..
Brown, Sam1 Goldstone, E. T..
Tannatt and w. j. Gains to obtain
the maximum amount of subscrip-
ton possible and in connection
Herewith to obtain subscription to
the building pack trail down the
gulch, 80 that in the event of the
inability to build wagon road a
trail at least might be constructed.
The board further appointed a
committee to investigate the meth
cd of incorporating the town, the
cost, ETC., ETC., and report at the
next meeting; the committee con-
sisting of Messrs. Durham, Hem

Attacking the Watermelon.

WASHINGTON, April 18.-Reports
from an authoritative source have
reached the agricultural department
that an unknown insect has attacked
the watermelon plants Of southern
Georgia and now threatens to destroy
that product. The department at
once dispatched Assistant Entomolo-
gist D. W. Coquillet to the spot to
make a thorough Investigation. He
will make close study of this new
pest and experiment in remedies for
its eradication. This insect is said to
be small black bug that eats of the
plant just below the surface Of the
ground. This industrious little worker
appears to have copartuer in evil in
the shape Of white worm that inj ures
the root Of young plants. Southern
Railroad Companies, who, during the
season, transport thousands Of tons Of
this product have joined the farmers
in urging the department to interfere
and prevent the spread Of its ravages
if possible.

The longest plants in the worl

The longest plants in the world
are seaweeds. One tropical and SUBJ
tropical variety is known which meas
ures in length, when it reaches its full
development, at least 600 feet. Sea-
weeds do not receive any nourishment
from the sediment at the bottom or
borders Of the sea, but only from air
and mineral matters held in solution
in the sea water.
Persons who sympathize with the
afflicted will rejoice with D. E. Carr of
1885 Harrison street, Kansas City.
He is an old sufferer from infamma-
tory rheumatism, but has not hereto
fore been troubled in this climate.
Last winter he went up into Wiscon-
sin, and in consequence has had
another attack. It came upon me
again very acute and severe" he said.
"My joints swelled and became in
famed sore to touch or almost to
look at. Upon the urgent request OF
my mother-in-law I tried Chamber
lain's Pain Balm to reduce the swell
ing and ease the pain. and to my agree
able surprise, it did both. [ have
used three ffty-cent bottles and be-
lieve it to be the finest thing for rheu-
matism, pains and swellings extant. !"

enough to know that he is nothing
but man, and so am I. We are in
fuenced by the company we keep and
his company is mainly the bankers
and millionaires and magnates Of the
nation-the very men who control the
debts of the government and the rail-
roads and the cities and towns and the
people. Of course they want these
debts paid in gold. That is nature,
and scripture, too, but We can't do it,
and when the people are driven to the
wall they will fight, fight not with the
bullet, but with the ballot!
"a weapon that comes down as still
As snowfskes fall upon the sod,
But executes freeman's will
AS lightning does the will Of God!'
This silver and gold question is fast
disintegrating the old parties. New
alignments are forming every day.
Mr.. Lowry, the Atlanta banker, is just
as pronounced on one side as MIR.
Inman, the millionaire, is on the
other. Mr.. Inman's manly, patriotic,
philanthropic letter in favor of silver
was the best that have seen in
newspaper. All honor to him for it.
It was hardly to be expected from
man who holds so much of other peo-
ple's obligations. So let the ball roll
on and break up the old parties, if
need be; we can't be Worsted.

tinotly, but when the atmosphere did
for short time clear up it shone with
unusual brilliancy. Its brightness in
the last few months has attracted con-
siderable attention even among those
who are not expert "sky-gazers." All
of these facts, taken in conjunction
with the changing condition of the
weather upon the earth, have led
many to predict the approach of some
thing unusual in the solar system.
This object will very likely be new
star, comet, or wonderful conjunction
of two or more planets, or the long
looked for Star of Bethlehem.-PMla-

40 degrees below with LOO inch.

Another strange change occurs in
the water contained in the jar from
which the air is being pumped. If a
thermometer be placed in it and the
water be warm the mercury rapidly
drops when ebullition begins, and con.
tinues dropping till it reads 80 de-
grees, when the water turns into ice.
If further pumping be continued the
mercury continues dropping till very
low temperature are registered, the ice
vaporizing as high vacuums are OBJ
tained. The reason for this intense
cold being produced is that water, in
changing from liquid to a vaporous
condition, must obtain the latent heat
necessary to its efecting the change.
This latent heat required by water in
turning into vapor under vacuum is
enormous, being stated at 1890 ther
NAL units, each unit being practically
the same as 1 degrees Fahrenheit. In
this machine the water vaporized OBJ
tains this so-called latent heat by the
portion Of the water yaporizing rob-
bing the remainder of its heat, and,
as the total heat in water at ordinary
temperatures is only about ] degrees
that required to vaporize it, just about
! degrees turns into vapor and the
remaining ! degrees into ice. This
wonderful property of water vapor
places it far ahead Of any other known
agent of refrigeration. A pint Of wa
ter vaporized will produce more cold
than three pints Of liquid ammonia
gas, the most successful refrigerating
agent heretofore used in this country,
while the power required to operate
the vacuum machine is only 5 per
cent. of that needed for ammonia COM
pressors doing the same work.
A very simple vacuum pump pro-
duces practically perfect vacuum in
the machine, but the large volume Of
vapor given off by the water being
frozen, if it were drawn into the cylin-
der Of the pump, would require pump
cylinder of enormous area and render
it impossible to maintain the neces-
sary vacuum to obtain low tempera-
lures. This fatal defect is entirely
removed by placing overhead pipes
between the freezing chamber and the
pump cylinder and admitting a small
flow of common sulphurio acid at the
top of the pipe, which trickles down
over glass balls, with which the pipe
is filled. The water vapor on its way
from the freezing chamber to the pump
passes down around these balls and is
instantly absorbed by the acid which
is flowing over them, and so perfect is
the absorption that not a vestige Of
vapor enters the pump. under perfect
vacuum. The small flow of acid re-
quired is automatically controlled by
the machine and there is no waste or
loss Of acid in years Of work. It is
the commonest acid used, hundreds Of
tons being made at the fertilizer works
near this city, and the wholesale price
Of it is about fifteen cents gallon.
When it gets too weak to absorb the
vapor the water is driven off it by heat
without any loss of acid.
Mr.. Conocher says that there are
many other uses to which the princi-
Piles involved in the machine may be
put besides the simple making Of ice.
