THE GULF or MEXICO.
Changes Taking Place in Hts Water
Level.

Changes Taking Place in Its Water
According to the engineers of the
photographic bureau the level of the
Gulf of Mexico is one foot higher than
it was in 1853, and, of course, the en-
croachment on the surrounding coasts
has been greater or less, pending on
their character. In some places, says
the St. Louis Republic, where the mar
ginal lands are composed of high, rocky
bluff, this change of level has gone on
attention. On the other hand many
low-lying points (some that were. once
Inhabited by the primitive inhabitants,
or by the pioneer white settlers), are
entirely submerged. The cause of this
change of level has not as yet been
ascertained, but it is reasonably GER
tain that it is the result of either set
ting of the dry land or of a general
and uniform rising or upheaval in the
gulf bed. No man who has given the
matter a moments thought will argue
that there is more water in the gulf
now than there was thirty-five years
ago; on the contrary, there isn't the
least doubt but that there is much less.
However this may be. if this aqueous
encroachment is steadily maintained,
Keokuk will be deep-water harbor
and St. Louis and the whole of Missouri
will be entirely submerged in less than
forty thousand years from January 1,
1895.

MEEk.N'S AlLlGATORS.

He Made Them Work a Dynamo, But
Couldn't Stop Them.
My boy once had pet alligator that
was pretty fierce, observed Meeliin, the
lazy inventor, according to the Chicago
Times. When he teased this young
saurian, the beast would skip out with
it's powerful tail in an amazing fash
ion. without doing itself or anybody
else any good. 1t occurred to me that
here was splendid example of wasted
energy, and set out to devise a means
of conserving it and turning it to some
useful purpose. I spent "a winter in
Florida, and after | had experimental
with some of the small gators that are
supplied to tourists for a consideration,
l ordered some big fellows. After some
little trouble l secured ten gators,
each about four feet in length and of
about ten horsepower tail capacity.
My scheme was utilizing their tail
power-yes, it was kind of tail
race - was this: The gators were
placed side by side in stalls, which left
their tails free to wag. ! had upright
beams set like pendulums, the swing
ing ends of the beams coming close
position for action. Then l built a
tank over the stalls and filed it with
laundering big cannon balls. There
was an inclined chute running from
the tank to power wheel made with
hollow places in the rim, something
like water wheel. In the chute
had a valve to regulate the flow of
cannon balls. Half the gators were
used to work the cannon ball part of
the machine, and the other half to
run q conveyOr contrivance to lift the
balls back into the tank after they had
done their work in turning the wheel.
/ connected small dynamo by belt
to pulley wheel on the power-wheel
shaft. My main circuit ran from the
dynamo to a bank of incandescent
lamps. which were to be used in the
test. When everything was ready. the
wheels oiled up, main switch closed
and the gators pretty mad, l hired four
little colored boys to go along in front
of the stalls and crack the gators on
the head with short clubs. This made
'em awful mad, and SO they struck out
with their tails. Then the old shebang
commenced to run. A little coon would
hit gator on the head, he'd let out
with his tail, strike beam, open the
valve, let out cannon ball, which
rolled down the chute and onto the
wheel, turning it around. Then the
ball rolled back to the conveyor and
was hoisted up by one of the other
gators. She was humming beautifully;
but had forgotten one thing: that was
a governor. The little coons liked their
work. and lambasted the gators un-
mercifully. | stopped them, but the
wild animals were beyond control.
They lashed around until the speed got
SO high that the armature of the dyna-
mo burned Out with q fash. The gators
running the conveyor got into race
with the other fellows and hOisted up
cannon balls so fast that the tanl, got
overweighted and broke down. The
cannon balls fell on the gators heads
and killed every one of them. Fact.

the incident has also q sorrowful tinge. A
Sioux Indian and his squaw, whom the
woman's husband had known out west,
were returning from Europe, where they
had been as attaches of Buffalo Bills Wild
West. When they came to Chicago, they
stopped over a day and hunted up the
paleface whom they had known out west.
He hired carriage and took them out to
his home, which surprised his wife not a
little, and there they were entertained.
The squaw spoke no language but her own.
Her man knew enough English to make
himself understood. Both were In their

points and oysters, but when the roast

the squaw bulged out, and she clapped her
hands. She devoured 1t slice by slice and
in a manner calculated to shock the wife
of the paleface.
After dinner the squaw sang for the
paleface woman and her papooses to show
gratitude. Then, through her man, she
had the palefaoe woman take off her shoes
and stand on a sheet of paper The squaw

The West Side wife playfully chided her

said, Wait" In year from the time of
the visit package was delivered to the
house. 1t was opened, and there were thel
split bead moocasins made by the squaw.l
There also was the information that she
had died about the time the moccasins
were completed.
In crude sort of way, but all the more
tender on account of its simplicity, the
Indian explained that his squaw would
have sent the moccasins sooner, but she
had been sick, and her work had been de-
layed, and that she was afraid she would
not live to keep her word to the paleface
woman who had entertained her with such

In the home of the West Side paleface that
night, and even now, when the wife of the
palefaoe tells the incident, there is a slight
