HOT WATER WITHOUT FIRE.
University Professor Heats 1t by
Stirring with n Paddle.

1t is possible to make pail of water
boil without putting it on the fire and
without applying external heat to it in
any way. In fact, you can make a pail
of water boil by simply stirring it with
a wooden paddle The feat was recent
ly performed in the physical laboratory
of Johns Hopkins university in Balti-
more, Md, and anyone may do it with a
little trouble and perseverance. All you
have to do is to place the water in pail
1t may be ice water, if necessary-and
stir it with a wooden paddle. If you keep
at it long enough it will certainly boil.
Five hours of constant and rapid stirring
are sufficient to perform the feat success
fully. The water will after a time grow
warm, and then it will grow hot-so hot,
in fact, that you cannot hold your hand
in it, and finally it will boil Professor
Ames of Johns Hopkins annually illus
trates some of the phenomena of heat by
having one of his students perform the
trick in front of his class. 1t is tire
some job, but it is perfectly feasible.
The point which Professor Ames wishes
chanical equivalent of heat. 1t requires
just so many foot pounds of work to
develop given quantity of heat. BY
turning the paddle in the water at a
regular speed it is possible to find out
just how much work is required to raise
the temperature of water one degree. The
best measurement so far made and, in
fact, the one which is accepted as the
standard of the world, is that which MAS
measured in Johns Hopkins college.
Heat is developed in almost any sub
stance which is subjected to continuous
or very violent action. 1t is an old trick
for blacksmith to forge without fire
Long continued and violent hammerine
on two pieces of wire will heat them tC
such an extent that they can be welded
together. A lead bullet, if shot directly
at stone wall, will develop heat enough
by the contact to melt and fall to The
ground molten metal. There are many
other occasions wherein this mechanical
development of heat becomes manifest

SPAIN ACCEPTS ALL TERMS
REPLY NOT YET PRESENTED.
The Spanish Answer Presents EInb-
crate Views on Questions Aris-
Ing In the Future-Must BE Seen
to He Judged.

Washington, Aug. 9.-Spain's reply is
an acceptance of all the conditions laid
down by the United States, but Spain
presents elaborate views on each point in
volved and on questions which would nat
urally arise when the American conditions
were carried into execution. Whether this
will be considered satisfactory remains to
be decided.
The answer will be presented to the
government probably this evening. 1t is
definitely settled it will not be delivered
prior to today's cabinet meeting The re-
ply should certainly be in the hands Of
the United States government during the
day, but it is possible the French ambas-
sador will simply deliver it today and
there may be no occasion for conference
between the president and NJ. Cambon at
the White house.
The only notification the government
had received on the subject at 1890 this
morning was the brief announcement that
the reply had been received. The cabinet
adjourned at 1895 without having re-
ceived official word of the Spanish accept
ance. No hour had been fixed for NJ.
Cambon to arrive. but when the cabinet
meeting ended it was stated the ambassa-
dor might deliver the answer to the pres
ident within an hour. 1t is understood
the tenor of the reply may necessitate
calling the cabinet together again.
A dispatch was read from Dewey an
nouneing the arrival of the Monterey and
Brutus at Manila, and that there was
plenty of coal and fresh provisions TO last
three months.
Up to 2:30 p. m. the Spanish answer
had not been delivered to the president
or the state department. There is no pres
ent indication of an extra cabinet meet
ing to consider the reply. 1t will be in
the hands of the president and Secretary
Day by tonight.
Up to midday no arrangement had been
made for conference between the pres
ident and M. Cambon. 1t may be that nc
further conference will be held, and thai
the Spanish reply will be given Secretary
Day, for it is complete in itself and al
present has not reached the stage OF argu
ment.

ALGER REBUKES ROOSEVELT.
snnppy CabIegrnm to the Distin-
guished Rough Rider.

The following correspondence has
passed between Colonel Roosevelt and
Secretary Alger:
Santiago de Cuba-My Dear Secre-
tary: l am writing with the knowledge
and approval of General Wheeler We
earnestly hope that you will send us
most of the regulars and at any rate the
cavalry division, including the Rough
Riders, who are as good as any regulars
and three times as good as any state
troops-to Puerto Rico. There are 1900
effective men in this division and if those
who are left behind were Joined to them
we could land at Puerto Rico in this
cavalry division close to 1000 men who
would be worth easily 10000 national
guards armed with black powder Spring
fields or other achaic weapons. Very re-
spectfully. THEO. ROOSEVELT"
The following reply was cabled:
"Your letter of the 32d received. The
regular army, the volunteer army and
the Rough Riders have done well, but
/ suggest that unless you want to spoil
the effects and glory of your victory you
make no invidious comparisons. The
Rough Riders are no better than other
volunteers. They had an advantage in
their arms for which they ought to be
very grateful.

New York, Aug. s.-A Washington
special to the Herald says;
In connection with the probable selec-
ton of Secretary Day as one of the peace
commissioners, it is stated he will, at
an early date, retire from the office of sec
rotary of state, and, after concluding his
labors as one of the members of the COM
mission, resume the practice of law in
Canton.
Although this is the first public an
nouncement that Day intends to retire
from public life, it has long been known
TO his intimate friends that when he ac-
cepted the portfolio he did so with the
understanding that he would resign i'm
mediately after peace was restored be-
tween Spain and the United States.

is $l275
Tickets may now be purchased between
Chicago and Kansas City for $40 so. The
normal tariff is Sl2 so. The Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul took the initiative
in the fight. Other lines have declared
their intention of following its lead.
Blame for the necessity for these reduc-
tions is placed by the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul on the Canadian Pacific
That line, the Milwaukee & st. Paul de
clares in its notice, brought about a wal
of rates to Alaskan points. The applica.
ton of these low rates=about 60 pei

the Chicago-St. Paul situation to such
an extent that brokers have had no DIFF

FIVE TRANSACTIONS COMING.
The Spanish Answer Coming slowly
to the French Embassy.

Washington, Aug. S.-2;45 p. m.-The
Spanish answer to the peace terms has
just been received at the French embassy.
1t is quite long and in cipher. The trans
lation began at once, but it will take
some time to complete the work.
At $3.50 o'clock the Spanish reply was
still arriving at the French embassy.
The fourth section having just been re-
ceved.
Paris, Aug. s.-The Spanish anIbassa-
dor this morning presented to the French
minister of foreign affairs SPANS reply
to the peace terms of the United States,
which was subsequently cabled to Wash
ington.
Five TransIatiOns.
Washington, Aug. s.-opain's answer
to the demands of the United States is
now on the way to Washington, but it is
coming with slowness almost painful
in view of the earnest desire to know
whether the acceptance is complete or
qualified.
There are no less than five TRANSACTIONS,
four of them in cipher, In transmission
between Madrid and Washington. After
the response was reduced to Spanish
cipher and then sent to the Spanish am
bassador at Paris, by whom it was to be
translated into French, after which the
ambassador would deliver it to the
French foreign office to be reduced to the
French cipher for transmission to the
French ambassador here. These moves
take, it is calculated, eight or ten hours.
The impression prevailed in official
quarters up to midday that the response
would not reach the president until quite
late today at the best, and more likely
not before tomorrow.
The impression is growing in official
quarters that the Spanish answer, while
! in the nature of concession of the Amer
lean demands, is not brief and simple
acceptance, without reservation or condi-
ton. There is no direct official advice
on this point, but all the official advices
from Madrid indicate the response is
document of considerable length, pre-
pared with laborious care, and it has sew
eral features which may not appear in
the conditions presented by the United
States.
1t is probable the reply will be in the
hands of the government in time for con-
sideration at the regular cabinet meet
ing tomorrow, when the sufficiency OF in
sufliciency of the response will be deter
mined.
