WONDERFUL LIGHT.

In the lamp house OF the Governments

light in tie world. The light itself stands

four inches thick. 1t is capabl. OF flashing

bit of ciockwork eucased in 2 COX two feet
square.
The light consists of two concave discs
about 1-2 feet in diameter. These discs
are placed back to back about foot apart,
and in position look like tremendous double
convex magnifying lenses, so large that they
could not be cast in two single pieces, butS
had to be built up in segments and the whole
strung together on great iron skeleton.
And this, in point of fact, is precisely the
case.
Back to back, the lenses inclose hollow
interior. into which is thrust a powerful
electric light. This light of itself is about
1000 candle power. When its light is
projected through these huge magnifying
prisms, its power is intensified more than
SO, 900 times.
1t is altogether beyond the human imagi-
nation to grasp the possible effect of 25O,-

power of this new lighthouse wonder. At
the present time the finest oil lamp which
Ingenuity has been able to devise may be
seen on a clear night some thirty-five or
forty miles at sea. The new light may be
seen at point 20 miles sawsy.-Spare Mo-

CLYDE LOCKOUT.
ublic Sentiment Overwhelmingly

Public Sentiment overwhelmingly
Against the Shfpbuilders.
Glasgow, Nov. 6.-In consequence Of
the lockout put into force yesterday by the
Clyde shipbuilders against part of their en-
ployes, nearly all of the engineers employed
in Clyde ship yards quit work this morning
as public protest against the action of
the employers, who have no local dispute
with the engineers in their employ, yet
have declared a lockout in sympathy with
the Belfast shipbuilders, with whom they
entered into an agreement for common ac-
ton in the dispute Of the latter with their
engineers.
Public sentiment is overwhelmingly op-
posed to the gratuitous action of the Clyde
builders.

Development of Electricity.
Mr.. Hans Zopke, a German state en-
gineer, commissioned by his government to
look into the methods adopted in this coun-
try for the propulsion of cars by electricity,
is in this city.
II think America far ahead of any other
country in the use of electricity,' said Mr
Zopke. You have taken advantage Of
every invention and appliance that the
minds OF electricians have conceived, and in
this are the leaders of the world.
Il have made many reports TO INV gov
ernment regarding the electric roads of the
United States, and now, as my lea yeis nearly
up, am furnishing the final recommmenda-
tions and observations. Ihave been much
interested in the experiments with electric
locomotives, and the one used in Baltimore
is one of the rnarvels of the age. 1t is a
credit to the General Electric Company,
and believe is but the forerunner of greater
things in the same line.
II have applied for an extension of my
leave in order that / may remain in the
United States to see the developments of the
next six months. / believe that the spring
OF 1896 will witness some OF the greatest
experiments with electricity the world
has known. The principal trial will be
In the use of electric motors on steam roads,
and feel sure that the results win be sur
prising. Ny government is much inter-
ested in the future of electricity, and is
anxious Co take advantage of all modern
methods and appliances"

used to prevent it. The building should
be located high enough to insure per-

shelteredfrom the cold winds in winter.
The driveway should be graded high
enough to allow the milk to flow from
the weigh can into the receiving vat. #
the vat can be placed above the level of
the separator twill avoid the pumping
of the milk.
The more convenient everything is
arranged the fewer persons will be re-
quired to operate it and the less the
expense will be. II were building a
creamery for myself I would build the
churnroom in a endorsement, making
the excavation about feet deep, which,
with an s-foot wall, would permit the
use of plenty of windows for light and
ventilation. The idea would be to Sc
cure as even temperature as possible
the year round. It is very necessary
to have O cool room in which to churn
and work butter in hot weather. It
is q very difficult matter to make good
butter in q room where the temperature
rises to so or 30 degrees. "
In the diagram w is the scales and
weigh can, on an elevated platform,
from which the milk runs through a
conductor into the receiving vat, r v,
and from the vat into the separator S.
From the separator the cream can be
conducted into the cream vat, c v.
Oh is the churn and B w the butter
worker. B is the boiler, which should
be " or more larger than necessary
to supply the engine (E) on account
of the extra steam needed. F is coal
bin and o an Office. An icehouse and
q cold storage room can be attached
at the north end (N) if needed.
The steam and water guage should
be 20 placed on the boiler as to be in
sight of the operator, through the open
door, while running the operator. The
roof in the building should be fireproof,
to lessen the risk; the insurance will
be less also. Any competent carpen-
ter can construct the building and fit
the interior. It's entirely unnecessary
to employ regular creamery con-
tractor, and perhaps pay double price
or more. Better employ q competent,
disinterested man who understands
creamery work to superintend the build
ing. The cost viii be less and the
work more satisfactory. Sometimes
secondhand machinery that has been
used but little can be bought very low,
compared to new; as the machinery is
the greatest expense, it would reduce
the cost of the plant very much.-O. ].
