When an Ass sings.

The ass has voice. and sweet one,
no doubt, to such as like it, but it is
used principally in song. Nothing aside
from a symphony concert could be more
inspiring than the mathis of the ass.
He losses his caudal continuation in
the air of early morning, flaps his gen.
erous ears gayly, and then, raising his
eyes heavenward, he heehaws most me-
lodiously. No one who has heard that
anthem can conscientiously charge the
ass with lack of intelligence, unless
it be one Of those loose talking persons
who hold that he who is gifted music
ally is but an ass in all things practical.

The EAeeley Cure.

Considering the abundance of evil
dence constantly before US of the efica-
cy OF the Kelley treatment for the liquor
and opium habits. it is quite remark able
that there are many confirmed slaves to
alcohol or drugs who still refuse to avail
themselves of this opportunity for relief
The following is sample of the letters
received almost daily from graduates of
the Kelley treatment by the Kelley in
stitutes of Kansas:
"To sum the whole matter up. l can

Water Power Transmission.

A writer in The Electrical Review
gives some noted instances Of long dis
tance water power transmission, includ-
ed among these being three pairs of tur-
bine water wheels at the falls Of Juan
acatlan, Mexico. each of which is rated
at 600 horsepower, or approximately
an aggregate of 1900 for the three
pairs. Two pairs only are in constant
use, the other pair being held as a re-
serve power and for use in case of acct
dent in the motive power plant. Now,
the distance over which the power is
transmitted is nearly 10 miles, the plant
being situated over II miles from Qua
dalajara, one of the largest cities in
Mexico, to which point the power is
carried and the electric lighting of the
city accomplished by it. The 20 inch
turbines in this case are placed under a
head of 80 feet and are Of very perfect
construction, the wheel or runner proper
being made of bronze, the shafts of the
best hammered scrap wrought iron, and
other parts requiring strength being of
steel. The transmission of the power
from the turbine is Iaade to an interme-
date line shaft. From that the power is
taken to the generators, and this is ac-
complished by the modern hemp rope
improved transmission. The ropes are Of
the continuous style, passing from a
groove in the pulley on the main power
line and from that groove returning to
an adjacent groove on the water wheel
pulley, thence to another groove on the
main line, thus returning back and
forth until 16 grooves are filed on the
wafer wheel shaft The mower is taken
from the pair of water wheels by two
of the rope pulleys, one placed on each
side of the pair of wheels, the same ar
rangement of course being observed in
both Of the other pair of wheels.

DIR. Tracey's Temperance Lectures Are
Heard by Thousands.
DR.. N. W. Tracey, the temperance ad-
vocate, is drawing great crowds to his
meetings in Hamilton hall. A thousand
people attended his first lecture. and
1900 the second one last night.
His lecture last night was entitled:
"The Drunkard's Progress" and the
vivid and startling language of the
speaker was heightened by the pictures
thrown on the curtain by the stereopti-
con.
The different steps in the career of
the drunkard were illustrated and the
audience watched and listened with in
tense interest as the pleasant voice of
the speaker called their attention from
one picture to another. An unusual
thing in the work with the stereopticon
were the impressive transformation
scenes.
Dr. Tracey will lecture at the same
place tonight on "MentaI Agonies" and
the meetings will continue through next
week. They are free to the public.
