The wind Engine.

There seems to be no question as TO
the practical utility Of the new though
crude wind engine which Is now
coming into use in some parts OF the
west. According to the description, 1t
resembles the paddle wheel OF stern
wheel boat, with a shaft IL to IA feet
long, 10 to 16 feet across. with six or
eight arms. The lower half Of the wheel
ia shielded from the wind, so that the
air acts only upon the upper vanes. A
crank upon one end Of the shaft con-
meets with the pump. Power can be in
definitely increased at any time by sim
ply increasing the length. The wind
acts upon this sort Of paddle wheel from
all points of the compass except two
and it seems to require no governor,
but simply pumps more during storm.
No tower is provided for, and it is
placed so that the radial arms will be
clear Of the ground. One of these wheels
now running in Kansas is stated to be
81 feet in diameter, 81 feet long, and
has eight fans. The largest water whee
| in the world is said to be an oversho'
wheel in the isle Of Man. 1t is 72H

H. Tried It = Second Time.

A new story Of the late John 2.
Spaulding, illustrating his unlimited
generosity and original methods OF dis
tributing it, was told the Saunterer the
other day.
The sugar king" Of Broad street was
q confirmed bachelor, as everybody well
knew. His brother, the late Mahlon ID.
Spaulding, used to live in Beacon street,
and was the father of a happy family.
At the birth of the first child word was
sent to the rich uncle that the boy had
been named after him, John p. Spauld-
ing, 3D." Uncle John responded with
check for $40, 900. A couple OF years
later another heir was born, this time
girl, and Uncle John was again notified
that the little daughter had been named
after him. This was stickler for the
uncle, and he wrote for particulars. A
day or two afterward he received re-
ply, something in these words: There
is really no mistake. We named our lit
tie daughter 'Spaulding'-after you.
Uncle John sent another $40, 900 check

Wonnd steam Pipes.

The plan of winding steam pipes over
eight inches in diameter with three-slx-
teenths inch copper wire, thus nearly
doubling the bursting pressure, Is pro-
nounced by competent judges TO be an
important change in engineering prac-
tice. Further, that the thickness OF
sheet copper forming the pipe may De
reduced to the minimum, and at the
same time insuring the full advantage
of wire winding, an improved system OF
manufacturing steam pipes has been de-
vised, described as consisting in simply
using copper Of the thinnest possible
gauge TO form the interior or core OF the
pipe, while the body proper is COM
posed of steel wire wound closely
around the core, the interstices beng
filled in solid with copper by electro
deposition. Increased strength comes
from wire winding. New York Sun.

Deputy Sheriff John Mcnamara came

was nearly six feet deep. He was in the
act OF lighting lantern when the Shea
team came along. Before he could make

badly smashed and the team was some
