Cabinet Cmces.

An effort will be made during this con-
gress to have the number CT cabinet Off
Gers increased to nine. The proposition
being aeitated is to create a cabinet de-
partmenU of commerce and Industry, says
the Washington Star.
The first cabinet, that of Washington,
consisted Of five members. The secretary
of state was paid $500 a year, and the
others So, 600 each. War and navy formed
one department. and there was no depart.
ment of the interior or of agriculture.
The first increase in the number of cabinet
officers was under President jefferson, VINO
had secretary of the navy and secre-
tary of war instead of the two offices Icing
in one. The number remained ut six un-
til President Taylor's term, when secre-
tary of the interior was added. just be-
fore the close of President Cleveland's first
term the department of agriculture was
established and secretary of agriculture
was created. Prior to that there had been
u commissioner of agriculture.
The salaries of the cabinet officers have
been increased from time to time until
now they are $4,000 each per year. During
the first three or four administrations of
the United States the cabinets were not
composed exclusively Of men who agreed
in politics. Washington's administration
was kept in state of turmoil by the dis
agreements between Hamilton and Jeffer.
son, until finally the cabinet was broken
up. Madison, John Adams and jackson
had much trouble with their cabinets.
Madison had II men in his cabinet during
two terms. jackson had 10 and Grant had
81. 1t has been rare thing for cabinet
to remain without change throughout an
| entire administration.

The Clairvoyant Operator.

An odd sight is to be witnessed daily on
the Consolidated Exchange. Visitors for
some time have noted little group of
women who stand all day long in the gal
lery at the Broadway end of the building.
They also notice one particular broker on
the floor who is continually craning his
neck and glancing at one of the women In
that group. Every once in awhile after
glance, he jumps into the wheat pit, which
is just under the edge of the gallery, and
makes transaction.
Only the observing will notice, however,
any connection between his operations and
the woman whom he watches. From 10:30
o'clock till O'Clock she stands there with
one hand resting over the railing. With
slight movements Of this hand she gives
orders to buy and sell wheat to the broker.
The number of fingers extended indicate
the number of thousands of bushels to be
done, and twist up or down of the whole
hand tells the broker whether to buy or
sell.
But that is not the queer part of it. A
stranger asked one of the brokers, q friend
of his, who the woman was.
"Why," was the reply, that's the clair
voyant operator She's real clairvoyant
all right, and she reads the future turns
in the market and buys or sells according
ly. Or at least she thinks she reads the
future, and maybe she does, for she has
lasted longer than the ordinary woman
speculator. She has been at it for months ;"

Utilizing Wave Power.

B. Morley Fletcher, an associRte men,
Der Of the British Institute Of Civil Engi-
neers, has been engaged for some time in
carrying on experiments in England look
ing 10 the utilization of the force developed
by the rise and fall of the waves OF the sea.
Many attempts have been made to use this
enormous power for mechanical purposes,
and IL has been estimated that very small
fraction of the energy developed in the sea
by the winds would suffice for all human
needs. Mr.. Fletcher has succeeded in
making an experimental machine which
promises to be Of real utility for many
purposes.
The machine is simply pump arranged
in an ingenious manner, SO that the waves
shall work it up and down, and the force
Of the stream of water thus propelled may
be used either directly for operating en-
gines or be carried TO reservoirs and used
from these for producing energy. Mr..
Fletcher's machine consists, first, of q
strong metal rod, the lower end Of which
is held stationary at fixed distance from
the bottom of the sea by means Of chains
and anchors. Near the upper end anG
built so that it can slide on the rod is q
big, round, hollow float, shaped like a
cheesebox. Attached to the lower side Of
this font, one ON either side of the central
rod, are the barrels of two long pumps
whose piston rods arc made fast to cross
piece on the central rod below. 1t is evil
dent that if the central rod is held firmly
the rise and fall of the floating cylinder at
the top will work the pumps. The diff
Guilty TO be overcome lies in the fact that
the central rod would naturally rise and
fall with the float. To overcome this tend
ency Mr.. Fletcher has carried the lower
end of the central rod down into the sea
below the zone of wave action, and there
fastened great fiat disk to the rod. This
disk offers so much resistance to movement
that it holds the central rod practically
still while the float rises and falls and doe;
the pumping. A small machine which
was used at Dover had float about feet
in diameter and stroke to the pumps Of Z
feet, and this, when in full action, devel
oped 81 horsepower.
A plant is now being built which is in
tended to develop 500 horsepower when i
