Once More, Appendicitis.

The current literature Of the vermiform
appendix has just been enriched by an ad-
dition that will be received by the world
with sigh of relief AS all the world
knows, the world, for some time, has
been existing in a state of mental de-
preston, from fear of its vermiform ap-
pendix. 1t has suffered its appetite for
grapes and cherries to go unappeased.
lest a seed from the fruit should rile the
little worm-like appendage and cause it
to turn and rend its most faithful friend
The world has eaten its jam with fear
and trembling, and then gone to sleep
with it's hand upon its abdomen in order
to detect, if possible, the first symptoms
of a declaration Of war on the part of
the vermiform appendix. All of these
doubts and fears the world has suffered.
because the doctors said it must. Shrewd
doctors! They ought to build a monument
10 the vermiform appendix
In a moment of unguardedness a New
Jersey doctor the other day drew grape
seed into his lungs. That accident, while
unfortunate for the DOCTOR was the cause
of the giving to the world of the informa-
ton which will lead to its breaking from
the thralldom of the vermiform appendix
1t will burst the fake chains that have
held it. and viii once more eat its fill of
grapes and cherries. 1t will defy cholera
morbus and collie in the ecstacy of delight
at being free from the vermiform appen-
dix.
The New Jersey doctor said he had no
fear thai the seed in his lungs would kill
him. 1t might do so, but the chances
were that it wouldn't. Nature, he said,
was the most wonderful restorer, and
would go to work at once to take care of
the grape seed. He felt sure that the seed
would soon be encysted, and would do him
no harm. He added that people had
grown unreasonably afraid of fruit seed.
They had got themselves into believing
that if they swallowed seed their fate
was sealed. and they would almost inevi-
tably need the surgeon with his knife, or
the undertaken. That was all wrong. Ap-
| pendicitis, he asserted was a germ dis
ease; that one might fill his vermiform
appendix with marbles, or cobblestones or
anything else handy, il he pleased, and IT
would not necessarily produce the disease,
and that one might have it without ever
| permitting solids to pass his lips. A great
many cases of so-called appendicitis

nostrums of the nursery. Grapes, he as
serted. might be eaten with impunity.
1t is pity that this friend of humanity
| has got to wear a grape seed in his
/ breathing apparatus for some tipe, and
may never get rid of it. Stin if that seed
had never got into his lung, his gratifying
speech might not have been uttered. He
will have both the sympathy and the
/ thanks of the grape loving public.

To Use Half the Power in Coal.

AIr. Thomas A. Edison estimates that
80 per cent. Of the power that is in coal
burned under an ordinary steam boiler
goes to waste and that only 10 per cent
is utilized. It is announced in the Phila-
delphia Press that Mr.. George Westing-
house, the inventor. will. within week
or so, set to work in his machine shops in
Pittsburg an apparatus that will utilize
80 per cent. Of the power Of coal. 1t can
readily be understood that If the claims
made for the apparatus are correct, its
perfection and adoption will probably
mark the beginning of a revolution in the
production of power for the operation of
machinery. Mr.. Edison says the solu-
ton of the problem OF obtaining directly
the power of coal would probably result
in increasing the wealth of the world to
a greater degree than any other infiu-
ence of civilization. and would far exceed
the advantages to the world that flowed
from the discoveries of Bessemer for the
making of steel. Mr. Abram S. Hewitt
says Bessemer's invention has been equi-
valent to the addition to the wealth of
the world in the last forty years of a
sum equal to the entire commercial capt.
tai of the world hundred years ago. If
Mr.. Westinghouse has learned how to
obtain one-half of the power of coal, were
only one-tenth of it has heretofore been
obtained, the magnitude of his discovery
is apparent. And further, it is under
stood that the apparatus is not to be a
patented and secret affair. but that it
may be made by anybody.
Gas is the medium of the transmission
of the power from coal to Mr.. Westing-
houses engine. He has an apparatus
which turns coal into producer gas"
with the loss Of the least possible loss
Of heat units. 1t is estimated that 80
per cent. of the heat units in the coal
are saved. The engine he has built will
utilize nearly all of the heat units in the
gas, the calculation being that not less
than half of the power of the coal will
be turned out by the engine in the shape
of rotary energy. 1t is expected that the
engine win develop one horse power for
an expenditure of one-half a pound of
cOdlt whereas heretofore II mas Deen
necessary to burn five pounds of coal to
obtain such development. Another point
is that it is believed engines of the kind,
Of 1000 horsepower. can be economically
operated in the production of electricity.
At present electricians regard 100 horse
power as about the limit for steam en-
gines in electric power stations. to be
operated economically.
AS to the value of the discovery in dol
lars and cents. the coal bill of the Man
haitian Elevated railroad of New York
may be referred to for an illustration.
The road burns 100000 tons of coal every
year, at a cost of $4,000. Reduce these
figures by four-ffths. and it will be seen
what the Manhattan Elevated would
save in a year if operated with a power
plant which consumed, only the amount
of coal per horsepower that it is claimed
the new gas engine will consume.

The Buffalo Bill literature that is to be
met with on all sides these days recalls
the fact that the person who first intro
duced Buffalo Bill to the world has al
most dropped out of the memory of man.
Ned Buntline is referred to. Fifteen or
twenty years ago Ned Buntline's stories
of western frontier life were the delight
of all young America. They had as their
chief characters such personages as Buff
falo Bill, Wild Bin and several others
who existed in the flesh, but who for
time were supposed to be merely fig
ments of the story-teller's Imagination.
The immense popularity of Buntline's
stories suggested to some smart manager
that the characters he told of would
prove good drawing cards if they were
taken on the road in a show. Wild Bill

man, and went back west, where he was
killed. Buffalo Bill (W. F. Cody made a
success on the road. and his present Wild
West is the evolution of Ned Buntline's
stories.

The Farmers National Congress at At
lanta put itself on record as opposing the
expectation of either gold or silver. The
convention had probably not read the
newspaper dispatches for the last few
days. telling of the advance in the price
of silver because of the fact that large
quantities of it have been sold to for
eign purchasers. The universal opinion is
that Japan and China are quietly accumu-
lating stocks of silver. and are buying
large quantities in San Francisco and
elsewhere in this country. If this should
prove correct, the effect of the purchases
may be to reduce stocks of silver to
such an extent that the price will go con-
siderably higher. With higher prices for
silver, the demand in the west for free
coinage would cease entirely. The west
does not care three raps whether the sill
yer is made into money or exported. A
market for it's silver is all it wants. The
National Farmers Congress is opposing
its western silverite friends when it OPP
poses the expectation of silver.

The Wheat Industry.

The millng industry is the largest i'm
the United States in point of capital
and help employed. Our mills have am
pie capacity to convert into -four every
bushel Of wheat grown in this country,
and, like the railroads and farming in
terests, the milling industry is spread
over the entire country, being confined
to no particular section. In 1895 flour
represented 81 per cent Of the wheat
exports from the United States. That
per cent has steadily declined until
flour represents now about 80 per cent
of the wheat exports-a decline Of 81
per cent in the face of constantly In
creasing capacity to manufacture -four
in this country. In 1892 the wheat ex-
ports amounted to ODE. 665, S12 bushels,
Of which Isl, $50, 351 bushels went as
raw material, and 6S,3S5, 461 bushels
as the manufactured product In 1893
the exports amounted to 191, 912,6334
bushels, Of which lit ,121 JOG bushels
was in the shape Of raw material.
Were it possible to export this as Hour,
the saving to our country would be
from $8,00O,O0O to $4,000, 900, the cost
of manufacture. OF this amount the
greater part would be paid out in lae

Electricity and Wool.

Wool, after it is shorn and cleansed
preparatory to the carding and spin
ming processes, is capable of being
highly charged with electricity, and
the phenomena resulting from this
characteristic are familiar to all card
ers. Oftentimes the influence OF this
agent is so active as to interfere ma
terially with the working of the wool.
Wool that is thoroughly wet, or that
is we'll fabricated either artifcally or
with its own natural grease, shows
no effects from the presence of cleo
tricfty. and it may be accepted as a
well-esta blished fact that in all grades
of wool the susceptibility to the infiu-
ence of electricity increases in the ra-
ito OF dryness or absence Of lubricat-
Ing material in the fiber, or, in other
words to its freedom from the tnoisten-
ing effect of oil or water. Sufficient
moisture properly applied will not only
prevent all of the i'll effects of. elecri-
city in wool, but will destroy every
evidence Of it's existence in both the
pickle: and card rooms. By making
