the remains OF fires and wrecked fur

FIRST DREDGER INVENTED
APPARATUS OPERATED BY TWO
YOKE or OXEN.
Letters of Patent Issued to Hard
ford. Conn. Man by Presidents JEFF
ferson and Madison in 1902.

Mr.. William f. j. Boardman of this
city has in his possession letters pat
ent issued by the United States july
81. 1902, says the Hartford Times.
They bear the autographs of two
presidents, Thomas Jefferson and
James Madison. At the time of the
issue Mr.. jefferson was president and
Mr.. Madison secretary of state. Levi
Lincoln was the attorney general of
the United States. the patent was
issued to John Greenleaf, citizen of
Massachusetts, and the document has
been in the Greenleaf family most of
the time since 1902. The wife of Mr..
Boardman belonged to this Massachu-
sets family, and the letters patent
came to Mr.. Boardman through her
intervention.
The patent was issued on what was
called by the inventor a dock scrap
err, or machine for cleaning out docks.
1t was the first notion of the present
dredge used in cleaning out the beds
of rivers and harbors. The machine
was large rake and hoe combined.
weighing about eleven hundred
weight" The construction included
an oak plank eight feet long. thirteen
inches wide and six inches thick.
Across the plank on the front side
and at right angles with it were rang
ed eighteen iron bars. one inch and a
half square and twenty-five 'inches in
length. which were let into the plank
by grooves at equal distances and boil
ted. These bars projected seven in
ches below the plank and were point
ed and sharpened at the lower end,
the device in this shape forming a
rake. The same bars projected five
inches above the upper edge of the
plank, and a strip of iron eight feet
long, five inches wide and one inch
thick was fastened in contact with the
with the upper edge of the plank ana
secured by bolt through each of the
bars This strip of iron was feather
edged, and when the machine was ill.,
vented. a hoe on large scale was
formed The shank or handle of the
machine was made of four iron bars,
which at distance of four feet were
welded together. The whole length
of the shank from the scraper was
eight feet.
The power used in dragging this
apparatus was on land. and consisted
of cattle, wind or water or any other
power that might be used. The scra-
per, when loaded, was dragged to the
channel or stream opposite the dock
and the mud was carried off by the
current. The inventor with two yoke
of oxen. five men and two boys, clear
ed out a dock at Newbury Port, 5000
| tons of mud, in seventeen days. At
times he carried out twenty tons of
mud at one haul.
The application for the patent was
made at Newburyport. March 2, 1902
| The witnesses to the signature of
Mr.. Greenleaf were Charles Jackson
and Samuel Savett. The letters patent
are among the oldest in the United
States. Mr. Boardman. who is an en-
thusiastic collector. has one of the
most valuable collections of curios to
be found in New England.

The opinion which one has often
heard expressed by old people that in
the days Of their youth the winters
were colder and the summers warmer
than they are now Is subjected 20 the
test OF carefully examined statistics Of
temperature by DR. Buchan IN paper,
which is published in the Scottish
Meteorological Journal for the present
year.
Comparison Is made between the
average temperatures of each month
for the last forty years, aud the aver
age for longer period for which sta
tistics are available. ranging from 1874
years at Greenwich and 1873 years at
Edinburgh TO seventy years at Oxford,
sixty-tive at Guernsey, and sixty al
Aberdeen.
The result of the comparison of the
longer period of observations with the
shorter seems TO show that long ago
the fluctuations of temperature were
more marked than they are now, but
though IN some places the summers
are colder now than they were AT the
end OF the last century, IN others it is

the observations at Greenwich with
those at Edinburgh, aud they extend
nearly over the same time, January is
IA degrees warmer on the short aver
age of forty years than on the long
average of 1873 years at Edinburgh,
but 1t is only 0.3 of degree warmer
at Greenwich over the average OF 1874
years. June is colder by GA of a de-
gree on the long average at Edinburgh,
but 1t is warmer by o. 3 at Greenwich,
aud, while November Is warmer by
0.S of degree at Edinburgh, and De
cember warmer by 90 on the Ions
average, November is colder by 0t
and December colder by 0.S on the
long average at Greenwich.

A Curiou. Illusfon.

The illusion of feeling In amputa-
ted limbs has begun to receive scien-
tiic attention. 1t appears that the
victim of accident is often more con
scious of the existence of the missing
limb IN its proper place than of the
other, aud accidents sometimes re-
suit, as In the case of heavy one
armed man who put out his phantom
arm to aid in recovering his lost eqai-
hbrium. and in consequence had q

part of both feet would rub his ruff

and groan over the pain he declared
he still felt ip his cornsi
