A. a resent exhibition Of hydrants

Tn. Ni.Ipr French wine-

An American who has been residing in
France, and has devoted some time to
studying tine wines of that country,
says the California claret is as good a
wine as the claret of France. The Bor-
deaux wines that are exported to Eng
land and America are not pure wines,
but are mixed expressly for the for
eign trade. The French. have a great
objection to this fact being known. 1t
is said that a former United States
consul to Bordeaux was shot down in
the streets after having described the
process of mixing in a consular report
The idea that a Frenchman viii con-
sumo large quantities of wine is
mistake He will go to an inn. call for
q glass of wine, and sit down and play
cards. II he is playing for an hour,
the wine lasts him all that time. He
takes but one glass. The French do
not like a heavy " inc. and the claret
they drink is quite light Even this
thin wine is nearly always mixed with
water, half-and-half. They say water
brings out the fruitly flavor. To meet
the English and American and other
foreign derand, Re French wine deal
ers at Bordeaux take the thin native
wines and mix them with the much
heavier wines of Spain and Portugal,
and the result is the Bordeaux" of
commerce. The method of mixing is
wonderfully rapid and effective. Two
bins of French wines are placed close
to one of Spanish and one bin Of Portu-
guese wine. Above them all Is an
other bin. empty. and ready for the re-
ceipt of the mixed wine. The product
is a good wine, but it Is not a pure
wine In the sense Of being the product

Points on the HorseIess Carrtaxe

1t is generally understood that we
are on the eve of an enormous develop
ment of the horseleSs carriage, and that
the solution Of the question of a prac-
teal and popular automobile vehicle is
at hand. Joseph Sachs dlssents from
this view, holding that the whole ques-
ton is as yet hardly opened In view
of the fact that large number of man.
ufacturers in this country are now
seeking to evolve cheap and effective
motor car, Mr.. Sachs has outlined some
of the points which have to be borne in
mind in the construction of such q We
hicle. He looks upon the tubular form
Of construction as that to be early
adopted. The speed of tie ordinary
vehicle will be from ten to fifteen miles
an hour. and, for special cases, ma
chimes will be made TO GO twenty to
thirty miles an hOur. The element Of
dangcr-Steering. handling, etc.,-in-
creaSes with the speed, and for road
work. the enactmentS regulating speed
will nave to be very stringent. The
Motor car tire will he pneumatic. and
provision will be made TO make IL pune
ture-proof. The steering apparatus
will have to be greatly improved; it's
vital Importance. especially in cases of
high rates of speed, is evident. Fifty
per cent of the whole motor car ques-
ton is dependent ON the motor. In
ventOrS will have TO concentrate theIl-
selves on the construction Of the motor
and its connection to the driving
wheels. In :Dany of the old machines
the gearing weighed more than the
motor. Although the various types of
gearing are being rapidly modified.
there is nothing efficient. commercial
and entirely satisfactory 10 the market.
In electric motor cars it is more than
probable that gearing will be dis
pensed with. The rivalry in the mat
ter of motive power will lie between
steam, gas and electricity. In all prob
ability, steam will be used for very
large carriages. Gas has many adj
vantages. 1t is complete in itself, and
it needs no boiler; but, Oh the other
hand. it is hampered by its non-varia-
ton of speed. Mr. Sachs thinks that
the popular form Of an automobile car
will eventually be q combination of
gas and electricity. The electric mo-
tor car cannot blow up. and it cannot
be stalled. Its great objection Is the
uncertainty of the supply of current
which now exists in this country. Civ
Ell a reliable course of current, the cleo
tric motor is unquestiOnably better
than anything else: but. until this is
reached. electricity will take subord-
mate place as the motive power for
hOrseless carriages.

subjugating the JunEfrau by Means
of the Trolley.

The forty mountain railways already
laid in Switzerland seem only to have
whetted the appetite Of electrical en-
gineers for greater achievements. The
latest scheme is q railway to the top of
the Jungfrau Peak. The peak is ID
go feet above sea level Although
heights approximating this have been
attained in some of the railroads OF the
Andes, and In the mountainous dis
tricts of our own Western states, no
such grades as will be here employed
have been attempted. A vivid idea Of
what the undertaking involves may be
gathered from the fact that from the
lower terminal, at Scheldegg, to the
Jungfrau peak. the difference in level
IS 1000 feet, which rise will be accom-
plished in the total length of the road
of only seven and one-hah miles. The
read win alternately pass through tun-
uels and wind aloEg the edge Of noun
tains and glaciers. giving the passen-
rers unique opportunities of gazing at
superb landscapes. On the Monch
Mountain there VIII be a station,
which, from its situation, will be OF
spccial interest. 1t Is the center Of a
circle of magnificent glaciers. At its
right is situated the Jungfrau Firm and
its awe-inspiring crevasses. On the
