The normal brain remains vigorous

tones upon the depravity manifested
by the cid towns boys. Some time later
he again visited the place, and this time
he met with no insults and did not even

praise as well as blame, and so he said
that he was truly rejoiced to see that

RESISTANCE OF A TRAIN.

At Sixty Miles an Hour It II -Four Times
Greater Than at Thirty.
At 60 miles an hour the resistance o1
a train is four times as great as 1T is
at 30 miles-that is, the fuel must be
four times as great in the one case as
it is in the other. But at 60 miles an
hour this fuel must be eXerted for
given distance in half the time that it
is at 30 miles, SO that the amount OF
power exerted and steam generated in
a given period of time must be eight
times as great as the fastest speed.
This means that the capacity of the
boiler. cylinders, and other parts must
be greater, with o corresponding adj
sition to the weight Of the machine.
Obviously, therefore. if the weight per
wheel, on account of the limit of weight
that the rails will carry, is limited, we
soon reach q point when the driving
wheels and other parts cannot be fur
Their enlarged, and then We reach the
maximum of speed.
The nice adjustment necessary Of
the various parts of these immense en-
gines may he indicated by some fig
ures as to the work performed by these
parts when the locomotive is worked at
a high speed. Take passenger engine
Oh any of the big railroads.
At so miles an hour a driving wheel
81. feet in diameter revolves five times
every second; now, the reciprocating
parts Of each cylinder, including one
piston, piston rod cross head and con-

man is poor indeed who cannot afford a
large collection of ties. There is one
young man in this city, however, says
the Denver Times, who would have
willingly paid five times the cost OF

He is a genius in his way, and. like most
OF his tribe. requires a guardian. IL
was on a bright, warm morning, not
long since, that he sauntered from his
home, just about shopping time, and
in his absent-minded way wandered
downtown. As he walked along Six

to laugh. Their curiosity was lost upon
him. however, for he was far away IN

when editors accept everything that Is

young authors to ruthlessly cut manu-
script ''to satisfy our readers" He
wandered into a crowded drug store,
and, elbowing his way through the
throngs of well-dressed women, asked
for his favorite phosphate. and then
continued his stroll until he reached
the Office of the Times. Then some one
asked him why he did not dress before
coming on the street. He looked up in
mild amazement, sought a mirror, and
then made a rush for the nearest hab.
erdashery. Since then he has become
possessor of complete collection OF
ties, and when he sees his sister wearing
the choicest specimens. his hand IN
seeks his collar band to see il
he has again been neglectful.

PIPE COLLECTIONS.
Bisnarck's Meersckaum Foretold the L.
portant Events Of HI. Life

portant Events OF His Life
One of the Two greatest pipe collec-
tors who ever lived was Marquis de
Watreville, whose smokins-room In
Paris had the walls covered with costly
types, some Of them worth, il is claimed,
as much as $1,000. and all arranged
with great beauty Of design.
The other was the well-known Capt
Bragge, of London. whose collection
was valued at $500. o90. who had agents
in every part of the known world, and
whose collection was deemed worthy
in 1889 OF being made a special exhibit
during the summer season ut the Crys-
tai Palace.
Prince Bismarck is great pipe col
lector, and the gem Of his collection has
a curious history. Many years ago. as
Bismarck was strolliDg in the suburbs
Of Friedrichsruhe with his two hounds.
he was accosted by Bohemian peddler
and asked to buy a plain meerschaun,
pipe of the type that Bismarck most af-
fected. Atfrst Bismarck declined. but
the peddier claimed for the pipe the
power of forecast, ard told him he
would serve three emperors as minis
ter, and that three important changes
in his life would be foetold by acoi,
dents Detailing the pipe.
Laughing. Bismarck bought the
pipe. He has since served three en-
perors. Two days before the historic
moment when he was refused an audi

piece from the side OF the bowl, and
within a month he was practically dis
missed by the present emperor. The
