LOCATING A BREAK.
Clever Work Done by Philadelphia
Pneumatic Tube Experts.

Pneumatic Tube Experts.
In Philadelphia, probably more ex-
tensively than in any other city, under
ground tubes are used for the convey
Rnce of letters, kilograms and small
parcels. A few days ago one of the.
cylindrical rubber carriers employed
in this service stopped somewhere
along the route. Air pressure and sue
lion in turn failed to drive or recall it.
1t was found necessary to dig down
md open the pipe and remove the box.
But the problem was to determine
whether the box was ten feet or two
thousand feet from the starting point.
1t was not considered desirable to dig
up a half mile of pipe to remove this
obstruction. Other means of locating it
having failed, the following plan was
adopted: \ pistol was fired near the
end of the tube. and the time required
for the sound to travel and echo to re-
turn measured. Thus the distance of
the object was estimated Sound trav-
els LOO feet a second. As the velocity
would be affected by the temperature
proper allowance was made. The
chromograph improvised consisted of a
metal drum ten inches in diameter, re-
volving slowly, and moving endwise in
rotation. The polished surface was
coated with smoke. A pin was attached
to one prong of a tuning fork, giving the
note C, and therefore vibrating SIG
times per second. Consequently 512
waves were impaired to the trace. A
pendulum of clock beating half sec
onds electrically caused another dis
turbance of the pin-point in its tracing
on the drum. Provision was made for
automatically recording the instant of
the shot and arrival of the echo. Five
trials gave 2,973 seconds as time re-
quired for sound to travel both ways.
A velocity of 1908 feet was assumed
for temperature of SO degreea and a
correction of 1.12 feet per second for
each degree above that standard. The
observed temperature was 80 degrees i'll
the ground. Computed velocity was
1910 feet, and distance both ways 3,O75.
Dividing by two, the explorers made
distance of box 1887 feet. Upon dig
ging down the workmen found the OBJ,
Btruction within a foot or two of the
designated place.

SPIRIT PHOTOGRAPHY.
A Step Towards the Logical Solution
of Its Mysteries.

a step IOWarOH the L0GIcaI solution
of Its Mysteries.
Some apparently unexplainable mys-
teries of photography seem to depend
upon a previous exposure of a plate.
without the owners knowledge. An
exposure was made Of the interior of a
house. The plate developed more quick
ly than was expected, and the image
was quite different from the room in
tended to be photographed. The plate
was from fresh box. An exposure was
made with a river in the foreground.
The finished picture revealed the figure
of woman, apparently upright in the
water. To complete the mystery, the
body of woman was found in the river
a few weeks afterward, in the exact
spot of which the photograph was
taken. Papers awhile ago were telling
of an exposure upon haunted" house.
The negative showed picture at win
dow. said to be that of man murdered
there. A photograph of a garden
showed a dog, a child's dress. and a
hat, which had not been there at the
time the plate was exposed. Upon trac-
ing the history of this glass it was found
that it had been used for other films.
1t had been washed, immersed in nitric
acid, and every means used to insure
chemical cleanliness, yet energy enough
remained latent to form developable
image upon the new film. This is a
step toward the solution of the mystery

formed into an oblong globe, just the
size and shape of the human eye.
Next it passes into the coloring room.
A piece of colored enamel is placed on
the summit of the globe, and this is
gently heated in a small flame and con-
tinuously rotated. Gradually this takes
the form of the iris, and then a spot of
darker enamel is added to represent
the pupil. Then this is covered by a
thick layer of crystal to form the cor
nea.
At this stage the eyeis detached from
the bBowpipe and cooled and then sent
to the cutting room, and from it
energies shaped into small hollow
oval with irregular edges.
The edges are fired and the eye is
allowed to cool slowly, this being THE
annealing or tempering process, which
toughens the enamel and renders it less
liable to break. The final work is the
polishing, and then it is ready for the
owner.
The coloring work is the most deli
cate of all, as sometimes eight or nine
colors are worked in to give the correct
shade.

Speedy Railway bicycle.

There is now on the market, placed
there by Michigan firm, railroad
bicycle constructed throughout like an
ordinary machine, but capable of great
ly increased speed. The wheels are, of
course, Hanged and fitted with soft
cushion tires, one-third of an inch thick
and five wide, which causes the wheels
to run noiselessly over the rails. One
advantage is that the rider can hear
approaching trains from either side.
There is no jar, and owing to the
smooth track surface very high gears
can be used. A good rider can average
a speed of thirty-five miles an hour on
a long run on this machine with ease. A
hub brake with which the wheel is
equipped makes such high rate of
speed safe.

MAKING GLASS EYES,
Requires Great Skill Both in Cast
ing and COloring.

The glass eye making industry is
larger than most people have any idea
of, the trade being stimulated by the
fact that the life of usefulness of a
glass eye is from six months to one
year, rarely longer. The salts con-
tanned in the tears have a disastrous ac-
ton on the enameled glass, and eat it
away to such an extent that the tiny
spheres become so much smaller in
size that they can be worn only with
great discomfort. In New York there
is a factory turning out 500 glass eyes
in the course of single week.
In its initial stage the eye, says the
New York Herald, is a long, slender
stick of enamel, made of perfectly
transparent and fusible flint glass. This
is placed in a crucible and exposed to
great heat. The globemaller places the
enamel over blowpipe supplied with
wind, which is pumped by engine
power.
Under the careful manipulation of
the workman the enamel tube is

A housekeeper says the proper way to
cleanse black or drab colored stockings
of cotton or Isle thread is to wash them
in bran water. Tie the bran in mus,

Shake the stockings out and dry quick

When the Wheel Gronns.


When your bicycle makes a noise it
is sure sign that something is wrong.
The perfect running machine is noise
less. Loose tools will rattle, and should
be so wrapped that they will not be
heard from; jingling sound usually
means that spokes have broken loose
from their fastenings at crossing
points; a distinct click indicates
spokes loosened at the rim; what might
be termed jogging noise is usually
caused by loose crank; loud swapping
almost invariably comes from a dry
chain. and loose sprocket will thump.
No matter what the noise is or from
what part of the machine it emanates
it indicates trouble that should be
promptly attended to.
BORGIA ROOMS REFRIGERATED
Chambers in the Vatican Ruined by
Constable De Bourbon Restored.
The restoration of the Borgia rooms
in the vatican is an undertaking which
will long serve to preserve the memory
Of Leo XIII. as patron of art, says
London exchange. These six noble
chambers. situated above the famous
stance of Raphael, were built in 1896
by Alexander VI of unhallowed renown.
The first, named the hall of the pom
tiffs, had been redecorated in the time
Of Leo X. after Raphaers designs. On
the walls of the three next Pinturicchio
painted the finest of his frescoes, and
one chamber contained the "Aldobran-
DIM Marriage Feast" which is supposed
70 supply link with classical art. Bene-
letto Bonfllo took up his masters brush
to complete the adornment of the last
two apartments. This sumptuous suite
served as a home for the popes until
Sixtus V. and Clement VIII. constructed
the existing palace. During the sack OF
Rome by Constable de Bourbon much
damage was done to the Borgia quarter,
which has been practically abandoned
until to-day Unhappily, the mural
paintings in only two of the rooms have
been found in a state admitting of re-
pair. Elsewhere it has been necessary to
renew the decorative work as far as pos
sihle on the original lines.
