A FEW INTRICATE SUMS.

Taking him unawares, 1 asked:
Can you add 1886. 432 to 1885, 4S to
SO. 59S, 624, 13S to 1,S46, O23, 001 to 14,374
without stopping to figure?"
THAT makes II, 473, 496, 1884," said he on
the instant, and then he laughed at
my surprise.
AS 1 called the numbers to him he
added them, having the aggregate of
the first two before 1 had finished the
third, and of the whole while / caught
my breath after enumerating them.
Then 1 read him a column of figures
ranging from tens to hundreds of thou
sands. the length of a sheet of legal
cap, and he had furnished me an &C
curate aggregate the moment 1 fin
iShed.
Such an evidence of unexplained
power viii astonish the most credu-
lous. but what must one think when
such a character says he is a living
walking, chronometer, and proves the
same before you can dispute it. He
mistrusts all men, and a financial con-
sideration, together with the induce
ments of acQuatintances, is necessary
to set his tongue going, which done,
he keeps you busy listening. for he
talks like torrent rushes, swears with
the fury of a cyclone and calculates
with the rapidity of electric pulsations.

ventors of a rapid fire mechanism
which is of the same class as the we'll
known Hotchkiss gun. 1t is applied to
1-pounder and 6-pjounder guns. This
invention is owned by a private cCrpO-
ration, unlike most of the navy inven-
tons which belong to the government.
Commodore John a. howell is the in
ventOr of the automobile torpedo,
which bears his name. Its mechanism
consisted chiefly of a heavy cog-wheel
made TO revolve at high rate of speed
before the torpedo is put in the water,
Commodore Howell sold this invention
to the Hotchkiss company and for a
time drew a royalty on it. OF late it
has been supplanted by the Whitehead
torpedo.
Lieutenant Joseph Strauss is the in
ventor of improvements in mounting
turret guns. He conceived the idea of
the double turret, having an eight-inch
turret placed on top of 13-inch turret
as used on the battleships Kearsage
and Kentucky, which were launched
not long ago at Newport News.

my watch to see Il ne was right, and
before could see he said, Your watch
Is one and one-quarter fast"
How do you know2" / asked
I can't tell you. but 1 am right"
ne said And so he was, as the West
ern Union regulator proved. I then
concluded to test him further, and re-
solved that l would say nothing OF it
Wnen his hour was enoed, and note If
| he knew it. Imagine my surprise,
when in the middle of a problem he
stopped me and announced that his
time was up. Consulting my watch I
found him right to a second.
EXAMPLES OF REMARKABLE
SIGHT
Previous to that 1 had asked him
the time in st. Petersburg, and he
stated 1t correctly, saying that he was
conscious of the degrees of longitude
and latitude in all his calculations of
time. He knows their location and
can answer any question of time when
from sound sleep, and upon being
asked the time would state it accurately
while rubbing his eyes.
Reading the dial plate of a clock in
Berlin, he says, is no more trouble tic
him than that of a watch in my pocket,
and in this he brings proof of the as
sertion that he is conscious of every
correct clock tick in the world, whether
sleeping or awake. You may take him
by surprise, and after stating that the
distance from Kansas City to New
York and the dimensions of loco
motive drive wheel, allowed a stated
loss for slipping of the wheel in each
mile travelled, and h will instantly
tell you how many revolutions the
wheel will make in travelling that dis
lance.
His memory is almost as remarkable
| as his calculating genius. Having
heard any statement he will remember
it, and, though he may not under
sand words he hears, he will use them
in the same or a similar sense to that
in which they were used when he heard
them. BY this means he has a vo-
cabulary far in advance of other Hit.
crates.
Speaking of his youth, he said he re-
membered no change, so far as his
| knowledge of things is concerned, since
his 7th year, at which time he came
into possession of his mystery" He
is not fond of his relatives, who, he be-
lives, would make a fortune at his ex-
pense if he were not so smart as to
prevent it. They used to call him a.
fool, and he hasn't forgiven them for
that-KansaS City Times.
