THE ENGINEERS SMILE.

When They Read About Railroad
Adventures as Generally Report
ed.
"Olu railroaders smile frequently
when they read in the newspapers the
accounts Of alleged thrilling adventures
of ch2ineers,' said a member Of the
craft. For instance, noticed story
IL some Chicago oape: not long ago
of the terrible experience of a man
whose hair was turned white in fif-
teen minutes or something Of that
kind, by tho close call he had of going
through a bridge. There had been a
dermined, and the whole business
train that struck it.
All this would have happened if
the eagle eye of the man at the throt-
tie hadn't taken in the situation about
half am lie back on heavy down
grade ard rev erSed the engine. The
queer part .. the story was that this
eagle eye'-tlat's what we call 'em

the engine would have jumped the
track T lat isto sy IL he had put on
trc .IfT q 1tsg s1nu reversed his iss=esss
at the same time the sudden stcppage
and reversal would have thrown her
off.
Now all this reads very well, l sup
pose to the general public. who don't
care whether 4 thing is true or not
just so it interests them. 1t amuseS
railroad man for another reason. He
knows that an engine won't do any
thing of the sort Wherever there is
danger ahead which compels a man to
stop right quick he doesn't have any
time to waste setting the brakes and
then waiting for the train to slow up
before he throws his lever He gives
gives the air brakes a shove with his
foot and throws back the lever, all
by the same motion, you might say.
It's all done in a second.
'"Then. if he has a chance, he looks
out for himself; he has done all that
he can and lie jumps. AS a general
rule, if the accident which he has pre-
pared for really takes place, he does
not have time to jump, and although
engineers are as brave as any set of
men alive, because a man takes his
life in hand whenever he goes out on
run. they often get the credit Of
being heroes and sticking to their en-
gines in the face, Of danger ,Vilal,, as
a matter Of fact. it was the only thing
they could possibly do. When Il man
lisco --rs a washout- or another train
comm coward him on the same track,
it is usually too late to get out of the
way before the smash takes place.
The heroism comes in in holding
place year in and year out which is
liable to cost him his life at any hour
ot the day or night through the blum
der OF some one else, or some accident
that nobody could foresee or prevent"

NAPOLEON'S USE Or ARTILLERY.

"In all the recent discussion OF Ma

ly had much to do with his wonderful
success 1t WAS az essential part OF
his great art OF being the strongest
to Use his own happy phrase, to give
the enemy, wherever possible, an ex-
aggerated idea of his forces. This is
part Of the secret of his victories over
superior numbers. which military tao
ticians love to write about.
"He placed great reliance upon the

for breaking an army into sections, but
for dealing VITA r3,c. section at Il

had succeeded in separating the forces
Of the enemy into, say, three divisions,
either by sheer hard fighting or by

could send him to the next division

Among the most recent and novel ap-
plications of wire, perhaps none has
greater interest for the mechanical
world than that presented by the new
wire flywheel lately erected at the
Mannesmann Tube company's works,
Germany. Heavy flywheels driven at
high velocities obviously present dan
gers of breaking asunder from the
great centrifugal force developed. The
wheel at the factory mentioned con-
sists Of cast iron hub, or hoss, to
which two steel plates, disks or checks,
about twenty feet in diameter, are bolt
ed. The peripheral space between the
disks is filled in with some seventy
tons Of No. 5 steel wire, completely
wound round the hub, and the tensile
resistance thus obtained is far superior
to any casting. This huge flywheel is
driven at speed Of 24O revolutions per
minute, or Il peripheral velocity Of
about 2.S miles per minute (2sO feet
per second approximately, which is
nearly three times the average speed
Of any express train In the world The
length Of wire upon such a constructed
hywheel would be about 25O miles.
The use Of paper is also regarded with
favor as a face for large fywheels,
the tensile strength Of paper being en-
ormous; and it is quite possible that
some Of the new big fywheels will
be built up with paper rim.

WARNING To FARMERS.
VIII Miss Ii If They Fail to Improve
This Opportunity.

A few years ago. owing to quite an ex' @
tended drought, the corn crop Of the South
west was a partial failure, and the farmers
Of that locality found themselves short OF
food for their hogs. the result being an ~
temperate haste to sell off their entire
holdings of hogs. includng Their lrood
stock, thus leaving them without the means
of quickly resuming the business OF hog
raising As a natural result Of their unDusl-
nesslikp methods the following year hos
prices advanced to eight cents per pound at
Souh st. Paul, but most of the farmers OF
Minnesota were not able to avail them
selves of this advantageous market condl,
tion, as their brood stock had been hustled
off to save feeding high-priced corn:
We are just now confronted with a SIM
liar condition, with this exception: Mime
sofa has an abundance Of cheap small grain
with which to carry over to next year It's
brood stock. while the farmers in the corn
countries to the south Of us have neither
corn nor other grains. and are forced to
dispose Of their breeding stock and trust
to time and future crop OF corn to make
a fresh start. Hogs are likely to bring eX-
cellent prices all Of next summer and win
ter, owing to the conditions mentioned.
viii our farmers have the business ability
to take advantage Of the situation? Don't
sell off your breeding hogs, Eut make ample
preparation for goodly supply, ana re-
munerative prices next fall and winter.

Electric Burglar Detection.


The use of electricity in protecting
property against burglars has become
familiar in many ways. One Of the
latest devices has been the use Of q
concealed miniature camera, which,
when the surroundings are disturbed,
takes picture silently of the intruder.
This has worked very effectively IN
several instances. Another recent
scheme for the protection Of safe is
it's inclosure by a metallic envelope or
casing, which does not touch the safe,
and IS insulated from it. the envelope
having a door opposite the safe door.
The envelope or casing rests on springs
mounted on insulating blocks, which
strike the safe and close an electro
circuit through an alarm when the
springs are compressed. There is also
an outer envelope which does not
touch the inner one, but is in electrical
circuit with the safe, this envelope
resting on the floor, and also having
door opposite the safe door. A spring
near the door acts as circuit breaker
when the door is opened, and in case
either envelope is raised, it strikes
either the safe or the other envelope,
closing the circuit and sounding an
alarm, a battery beneath the safe, or
other convenient place, being connect
ed by one pole with the safe and the
outer envelope while its other pole
connects with the bell. A closed cir
cult battery is also connected with con-
tact lngs in the, floor, which connect
with the outer envelope, wire leading
from the other pole of the battery to
a. circuit closer composed Of an elec-
trio magnet and hinged armature
normally resting on the magnet, but
raised by spring when the circuit is
broken. When the circuit through this
battery is broken the drop falls and
strikes upon the free ends of wires,
thus closing a circuit through the bell
