TO UTILIZE THE SOLAR HEAT.

IO UTILIZE THE SOLAR TEA -
If the suns heat that falls upon a
square yard of ground could all be
saved and utilized in steam engines,
the power generated, according to Pro-
fessor Langley, would be as much as a
full horse power. At the Paris eXposi-
ton of 1878 a solar engine produced
power enough to run printing press.
Ericsson invented a solar engine that
might have a practical value in the
Sahara, where a large portion Of the
solar energy that strikes the outer
part of the atmosphere penetrates to
the bottom of the aerial sea. We hear
a great deal of the vast power to be
obtained by utilizing the falls of
Niagara, but the sun power wasted on
the District of Columbia, says the pro-
fessor, is a hundred times as great.
Unfortunately there have been no
thoroughly practical inventions to
harness the suns wasted energy. The
day will come, doubtless, when it will

DOUBLE TURRETS.
The feature of the vessels which
makes them notably different from
other battleships is the new form Of
turrets. about which there is still some
difference of opinion. Their advdn-
tages are said TO be a large saving in
weight, which permits of more guns
and more powerful machinery for the
propulsion. a better concentration of
fire and the ability of the vessel to
deliver all four guns in either forward
or after turret almost simultaneously,
with g,ia result of hitting a terrific
blow to the target.
No battleship, the ordnance officers
contend. could Withstand the blow if
every shot took effect. The introduc-
ton of the double turret system Wss
opposed by the constructors on the
ground that it was too great a de-
parture in the methods of mounting
guns and that there was danger of
both turrets being placed out of action
by a single shot hitting either They
also pointed out that there was no
advantage in discharging the guns
both at once. for the reason that if
one shot missed a ship through poor
aim it undoubtedly would follow that
all would. and thus half of the ships
broadside of heavy guns would be lost.
The objections advanced. however.
were met by the ordnance bureau, and
Secretary Herbert finally decided 10

INTERESTING READING.
What Morgan Said on the Presidents Rights,
in Speech, Feb. ~, 1896.

Washington, Dec. 22.-In. answering a
question of Senator Gray in the discus
sion of the Cuban belligerency resolu-
tons Feb. a, 1896. Senator Morgan Is
quoted in the Congressional Record as
follows:
II dispute the power of the President OF
the United States of his own motion and
without the assistance of Congress, to
recognize the belligerency between two
foreign governments. because the Pres
ident of the United States has no right
by his proclamation. to change the com
mercial and other relations between the
people of this country and the people OF a
foreign country. Being the representa-
tive of the United States, in virtue of its
sovereignty as affects foreign countries,
he has the right to recognize the indcpen-
dence of a foreign country. because that
recognition has no effect on our own peo-
pie. 1t does not compel US to pursue
commerce under the laws which regulate
war instead of the laws which regulate
peace.
Senators White and Gray having still
further pressed their questions, asking
If he denied the right of the President 10
recognize belligerency, Senator Morgan
said:
IF the senator from Delaware will al
low me. | again distinctly admit and as
sort that the President of the United
States has the exclusive right to recog-
nizc the independence of Il foreign coun-
try because that affects our people not
at all
