Coles Magnetic Motor.

Professor Coles. the famous Kingston
tfa) scientist, writes that he has dis
covered how to run machinery by mag
netlsm, and has incidentally hit upon
perpetual motion. The gist of his
communication follows: The magnetic
motor IS so simple in construction that
almost any sChoolboy will be able to
build a motor of his own. If you take
a common horse shoe magnet and a
steel pin, as shown in cut, marked ]
and X. the magnet will attract the pin
at distance of quarter of an inch,
so that it will jump to the magnet: and,
If you were quick enough to slide some
non-masnetlc substance over the face
of the magnet, just before the pin
reached It. the pin would jump to the
other end of the magnet, and vice
versa, so long as you were able to cut
off the attraction. Professor Coles,
working upon this theory for years. mas
at last discovered, in aluminium glass,
a substance that will cut off the mag
netic attraction as completely as snow
cuts off the attraction of the earth
from steel sled shoes. The motor may
be described as follows: A A is
woven magnet, weighing less than 10
pounds, AMI having drawing power of
more than 100 pounds. The magnet is
composed of seven different kinds of
magnet metals, and SO woven that each
metal forms complete and independ-
ent junction of its own, and is said
to arrest the magnetic currents as they
pass from pole to pole. B B shows the
ending of the magnets, through glass
rim or case, as the whole machine is
encased in glass and works in glass
grooves. D shows the spokes in the
wheel, which are made of copper, fas-
tened to a glass rim; E shows a net
work of German silver wire, forming
functions on each spoke, and ending in
steel flocks H: F shows a rubber-like
of the magnet after it has drawn the
steel block down to it, and, then draws
the next, and next, as so on, forever,
just as if one could take a common
horse shoe magnet and attract the pin,
and at the same time keep the magnet
moving swift enough so that the pin
could never catch up to it. The speed
is over 100000 revolutions in a Sec
ond. proving that magnetism is swifter
than either light or electricity 1t is,
practically, the long-sOught-after per-
petual motion. and Prof. Coles gives its
to the world as though it
were but mere toy. In it lie millions

The Buying Of Food.

found to discourage the importation of

Insanity In Animals.

That animals are, to an extent. sub-

lar belief among insanity experts. II
has. however. become necessary to ad-
nit that there is some corresponding
affection in animals and man or ono
answering to the same description. Hy-
droph0bia appears to be a form of in
sanity and it is said that horses have
gone mad from fright. There n NO

tinuous service on the Great
Northern Railway, in England,
actually disintegrated under the
wheels of passing train. So
complete was the breaking up that sci
entists thought it worthy of investiga-
ton, during which it was determined
that the metal had become exhausted
and had broken down. just as an over
strained animal might be expected to
90. This has led to further inquiry,
and scientists are satisfied that metals
do become tired out Fine cracks often
appear in steel rails and it has been
supposed that they are caused by the
continuous conclusion of railway
wheels. This, however, seems to be
contradicted by the examination of
newly-made rails. in which similar
me lines occur. The idea that metals
become weary, while not altogether a
new one, is to an extent a plausible
one, and under the careful scrutiny of
scientific societies will probably be sat-
lsfactorily explained and settled.

quarrel between German Jewish stu
dent named Hartmann and Bohemian
student named Schmidt. While the po-
lice were escorting Hartmann from the
town hall an anti-Jewish mob attacked
them and then smashed all the windows
in the synagogue, the Jewish schools
and the houses of the best known Jews.
the authorities called out the military
to suppress the riots and the troops pa
raded the town from o'clock yesterday
afternoon until L o'clock in the evening,
when a regular system of military patrol
was established. An order has been is
sued forbidding public meetings of any
kind. directing all householders to close
their houses at 8 o'clock in the evening
and warning the heads of families to
keep their apprentices and assistants in
doors after 80 p. m. The police have
made twenty-nine arrests.
The town is quiet this evening, but
there are disturbances at Sachsen. SUI

Thus far only five persons have been
injured in the riots. 1t is expected that

By many it is believed that President

assertion that he will not agree to arbi-
trate unless all the states involved are

that the operators of other states will
not join the local operators. IT Ratch-

useless. This, in brief, is the situation,
and it is apparent that both sides are
making preparations for movements that
will be to their benefit.
that il the operators start the mines on
the lines laid down, mines will also be
started by the miners. 1t is proposed
to select operators who are in sympathy
with the strikers. They will be given
permission to mine coal at the rate de-
manded and the coal will be stored. BY
this means it is expected to get fund
from the union miners that happen to
be working and with this fund pay the
expenses Of fight against imported
labor. The miners officials are making
arrangements to have II fund on hand to

asked for a conference. The president
was evidently annoyed and Mr.. Quigg's

might stay over until tomorrow and have

is an active candidate for postmaster of

saw the president for a few minutes. At

hour.
