IT WAS cHIIapREN,s DAY.
Delightful Afternoon with the Littl

Delightful Afternoon with the Little
People at the Hebrew Fair.
The standing room at the Hebrew fair
was largely monopoliZed yesterday by
the children of Washington. The matinee
was given for their special Benefit and they
responded to the privilege. They made UP
a very merry tbrong and were, OF course,
the feature of the fair this week.
There was plenty to amuse aud to instruct
them. T here was program specially
arranged for them which they enjoyed
very much after they had sazed 10 opeu-
eyed woEder at the many beautiful little
palaces n the hail, which realized for them
many fairy story.
Frank Parker danced the herDpipe and
Miss Mamie Stevens delighted the specta-
tors With her new dance. Prof. John
Connor. was there with his talking dolls
The fair SO far has been an unlimited
success, and bids fair to continue to be
the special point OF attraction in the city
till its close. Notwithstanding the many
thousands who have seen the lovely visions
in this hall, there are other thousands who
have not. To these it can only be said
that there are some nights yet in which
they may make amends for their absence
by joining in the jubilee at the first op-
portunity.

Dog Saved Two Children.


/. Lieut.. John c. W. Brooks thus writes
Of his dog: While a gun was being
loaded Bombshell would sit on the
parapet and watch the operation. That
finished he would jump up and look
out to sea over the range, and then
gcamper down from the parapet and
follow US into the bombproof.
f: AS usual Bombshell was on hand to
see the test of the new big gun.
He superintendent the loading, and
while was aiming the gun he looked
over the range as carefully as did the
lookout; and from his air Of RESPONSE
bility one might have supposed that to
him had been intrusted the duty Of see
ing that the range was clear.
But when We started for the bomb
proof, instead of following us, as was
his custom, Bombshell remained on the
parapet, looking out to sea and snifhng
the air. In a moment he dashed off
through the bushes which covered the
narrow beach between the parapet and
the sea.
Though thinking his action peculiar,
l was sure that he would not remain
In front Of the gun, because he mad
done so once, when quite young and
inexperienced, and the burning grains
Of powder-which are always thrown
out by the blast of a gun-had buried
themselves In his skin, burning him
badly. He had never forgotten this.
! Certain that he would take care Of
himself, l paid no further attention to
him, but went with the others into the
bombproof, and took my place by the
electric key, ready to fire at the com
mand' Of the captain.
Just as the command Fire" was
about to be given, Bombshell reap
peared OH the parapet and began to
bark furiously into the very muzzle of
the gun.
l called to him, but he would not
come. Annoyed at the delay Of the
test, 1 tried to catch him. but could
not do so. AS approached him he re-
treated, still barking and apparently
urging me to follow him.
Finally convinced from the dogs &C
lions that something was wrong, the
electric wire was disconnected from the
gun, and 1 followed Bombshell. Wag-
ging his tail with Joy at having &c
complished his object, he led me
through the underbrush to the beach.
There, concealed behind clump OF
bushes, were two little children quiet
ly digging in the sand and entirely I'M
conscious of the danger in which they
had been.

To Make War Impo.sIbl..

A native OF Montreal mas invented \
gun which, he confidently believes,
when 1t is adopted by all nations, will
make war impossible. II all that is
claimed for 1t be true this gun Is GER
tainly the most remarkable piece Of
ordnance in existence.
A description of the piece Is fur
nlshed by NJ. sommery, Of Montreal, an
agent Of the inventor, who recently re-
turned from Washington, after giving
an exhibition of the weapon before NJ.
Patenotre, the French ambassador, and
the military attaches Of the embassy.
The most remarkable feature OF the
gun is that no explosive is used. and
that its missils are projected by an
agency the nature OF which is a pro-
found secret, which, without noise or
smoke, is capable OF discharging the
almost incredible number of $780, 1000
shots a minute.
The gun in general appearance re-
sembles field piece Of the modern
type. over the barrel are some cylln-
ders, surrounded by a pressure gauge,
and to the rear is shoulder piece such
as is commonly attached to rapid fire
guns.
A little forward Of the breech is a
funnel, down which the bullets are
passed into the gun as fast as two men
ian pour them. Underneath thu gun
and between the wheels is placed the
mechanism by which the proBulsive
'orce is generated. This is carefully
Hutchinson gazette. [volume] (Hutchinson, Kan.) 1895-1902, 1896-06-04

Enclosed, 80 that no hint Of Its nature
can be obtained, although the presence
Of the pressure gauge might be taken as
an indication that compressed air is the
mysterious power used.
The mechanism, M. Sommery ex-
plains, is put into action by simply
giving slight oscillating movement
to the trail by means of lever worked
by two men, the trail being geared d.
rect to the mechanism and having no
attachment to the axle. as is usually
the case.
Once started the mechanism Is said
to generate force enough as long as the
motion of the trail is kept up.
How the muscular strength OF two
linen could produce power sufficient
to throw 100000 bullets minute, with
range Of about 5000 yards, is
something that the inventor is not yet
prepared to explain. He insists, low
ever, that no other source OF power Is
used.

vary greatly with the length Of the
piece, one two feet long giving a muz-
zle velocity of S64 feet second, while
for the nine-foot form the amazing
velocity of 3,752 feet is claimed. the
bullets in each case being half an inch
in diameter.
The inventor insists that his prin-
ciple can be applied to cannon Of the
largest size
A report on the gun was recently
made to the board on Notifications.

Some Oddities.

The Soar family Of Ambaston, Der
byshire, England, have a curious heir
loom in the shape Of a loaf Of bread
which is now over 600 years old. The
founders Of the family, 1t appears, were
great friends of King John. When that
monarch died he made several land
grants to the Scars. One of these
tracts, 1t appears. had always been
conveyed with loaf of bread as a wit
ness of good faith. When King John
made over the papers to the original
Soar he sent the traditional loaf along
with the writings" and the deed and
the loaf are both kept to this day as
sacred relics.
The Hungarian crown, the royal
headdress worn at their accession by
all the Austrian emperors, is the iden-
tical one made for Stephen and used
by him at the time OF his coronation
more than 800 years ago. 1t is Of pure
gold and weighs nine marks and six
ounces about fourteen pounds, avoir-
dupois). 1t is adorned with fifty-three
sapphlres, fifty rubies, one emerald and
1888 ~carls, but no diamonds, 1t being a
notion Of the royal Stephen that ,lia-
monds were unlucky.
An ingenious man has invented de-
vice for feeding his horse, and he does
1t with one ofthe ordinary alarm clocks
For instance, il the horse is to have its
morning feed Of grain at o'clock the
alarm is set, and when the NOR ing
comes the horse gets its breakfast he
fore its owners eyes are open. II is
so arranged that the alarm pulls the
slide, letting the grain run through a
sluice to a manger.
Among the latest inventions which
Yankee genius has given the world is
a doorknob which renders a latchkey
superauous. BY rotating the knob in
the same manner as a safe lock until
the proper combination is secured the
door can be opened.
The largest oak tree now standing in
Great Britain is that known as the

A Canyon Bridge Of Rock.

One Of the many natural wonders of
Arizona scenery just made accessible
by the opening up Of new rail and stage
roads is a remarkable natural bridge
in the Tonic basin, not far from Flag
staff. The bridge is 500 feet long and
spans a canyon some 200 feet deep, at
the bottom of which flows the river
The bridge is of rock. and is perfectly
proportional. The underside is grace
fully arched and the upper perfectly
level. The walls of the canyon are
honeycombed with caves, in which are
a great profusion of stalactites and

Some Gigantic Photographs.

The largest photographs that ever
have been made, II we are correctly in
formed, were those used in Baltimore's
Columbia parade, in the fall OF 1892.
They represent scenes in the life OF
Columbus, and were used ms decora-
tons for the float of st. Plus parish
in the parade mentioned. The largest
one Of the lot, copy of Gribayedoff's
Columbus before Ferdinand and Isa-
bella" was nine feet long and six feet
wide. This Photographic triumph was
made by special process. The patent
belongs to Photographer W. H. Weaver
of Baltimore.

Utilizing Power.

The engineers of the Marquette Iron
Range Railroad have adopted scheme
for utilizing the power Of a loaded train
going down grade. 1t is proposed to
string a trolley line over the tracks.
which fall 800 feet in distance of Is
miles. The loaded cars, each carrying
twenty-five tons. will be made up into
trains Of ten cars each, and to each
train motor car will be attached. On
this car a dynamo will also be placed,
connected with the axles Of the car.
The descending train will thus gener-
ate electricity, which will be conducted
to the trolley line, and thence to the
motor car Of an ascending train, which
will haul back the empty cars. 1t is
said that the difference in weight be-
tween the empty and loaded cars will
make up for the loss OF power due to
friction, leakage, etc. 1t is quite prob
able that the motor of The down cars
could be used as dynamo, thus OBJ
Waiting the necessity OF an extra ma

Ramod on the Preacher.

A Georgia paper tells Of Tafle for
a minister that was recently held in
PARROT, Ca, the loser being compelled
to take him. The methodist congrega-
ton was having a revival which
dragged its length along until the con-
gregation had become worn out with
church-gOing and providing for the
preachers, who came from all around
to assist in the cause. The last preach
or that came was the straw that broke
the back of the dromedary. No one
wanted him, and meeting Of the stew
ards was held to consider how he was
TO bS provided for. One Of them pro-
posed to draw straws for him, which
was not agreed to, but finally the QueS-
ton was settled by proposition to raf-
die the minister on, and this actually
happened, the steward who made the
lowest throw taking the unwelcome
preacher and providing for his Dhysi-
cal wants during The closing hours Of
the long religious service.
