It Runs a Year.

Peter NJ. Ravenskilde, of Cabrey, Ill,
has invented a clock that will run a
year, perhaps longer, without atten-
ton. 1t was started August 26, 1898,
and has not stopped or lost or gained
time since. The clock is run with a
wheel sixty inches in circumference
From the outer surface of the wheel
are suspnded 120 cups, ach one-half
inch in diameter. Every minute and
half, as this wheel turns by the
weight of the balls, one of the balls
falls out of its ceup and rolls down an
inclined plane twenty inches long,
when, by its own weight, it reunites a
broken circuit of electricity and is ell
eyated by little car travelling along
an incline plane to the top of the
wheel, where it falls into a cup which
stands vertically for a short time. Af-
ter the cardischarges its cargo it re-
turns to its original station by its own
weight. From the time one of these
balls is dropped INTO a cup until it is
again dropped into anothercup 1t trav-
els thirty-six inches. Thus the work
done by all the balls is equivalent to
one ball travelling over a mile a day;
400 miles in one year, and in sixty
years the distance around the globe
The electricity used is generated in an
ordinary storage battery.-Kansas

No Change Probable.

In some quarters it is said that the
resignation of Secretary Alger will
change the policy Of the admininstra-
tion. Used in this connection, the pol
icy Is vague, but If 1t is intended to
convey the idea that the course OF the
administration in its dealings with
the Philippine question will be chang
ed a particle by the resignation of the
Secretary of War, the word is misused.
But there will be change. In fact
1t is we'll under way at the present
time, and, more than that, it was con-
templated long before General Alger
thought of retiring. The change will
be toward more vigorous prosecution
OF the war. The forces will be suffic-
iently increased to establish peace and
order quickly throughout every foot
OF Luzon. After that there might be
change Of policy looking toward pac-
ification and governmental measures,
but not before At least there will be
no change looking toward backward
step.
For this resolution is to stop the
war by crushing blow. the admins
tration is to be commended. It can
get the men and 1t has the means. AS
soon as the rainy season is over the
sovereignty OF the United States must
become an admitted thing by every
citizen of the Philippines Now that
the authorities are satisfied that the
situation requires great force. vigorous
ly applied, they should apply all the
power necessary to effect a quick paci-
ficat.on, and one that will be lasting

An Expression of Admiral
Dewey's in Favor Of the
Administration.
nav James Creelman.l

Trieste, July 22.-For the second
time since he reached Trieste, Admiral
Dewey tonight formally declared him
self practically for Mckinley. The
Admiral gave dinner on board the
olympia in honor OF Minister Harris,
and, while standing with a glass of
champagne, Dewey said:
Here's to- the health of the Presi-
dent of the United States, William
Mckinley May he be reelected"
Dewey is making it plain that he in
tends to support McKinleys candidacy
with enthusiasm. There was a dra-
matte scene at Mirarmar Castle this
morning when Dewey took Minister
Harris, of the Legation, his staff and
Congressman Foss on launch to see
Maximilian's old home.
Standing on the granite fight of
steps from which the Archduke en-
barked to establish his imperial throne
in Mexico, Dewey looked at the beau
tiful castle, towering above the gar
dens, groves, terraces and fountains,
and said: "It makes my heart bleed
to think OF this brilliant Archduke,
who, after designing and building
such home as this, left it all for a
bloody death on American soil. When
l look at his noble place and think Of
the rough grave he filled and cannot
help plying him, and yet it was right
that end should have come as it did
ior there must be no empires founded
in America. There can be no other
end for those who attempt to erect
thrones on our side of the ocean"
Minister Harris tonight invited Ad-
miral Dewey to visit Vienna and Tyrol
as his guest. Dewey declined, saying
that he did not want to leave his ship.
The Olympia will stay at Trieste two
weeks and then go to Naples, Leghorn
and Gibraltar. Dewey has been urged
TO go to England, but is inclined not to
touch the British coast. He said to-
day he would undoubtedly reach New
York about October l.
When the authorities of Trieste Of
fered Dewey large force of police to
keep the olympia's men from getting
into troublt the Admiral smilingly de-
clined, saying: why this ship car
ries nothing but gentlemen from top to
bottomn

New Cage For the Demons at
the Ohio Penitentiary.

Columbus, July 22,-On Monday the
cage which has been prepared at the
penitentiary for the reception of the
four prison demons" will be complet-
ed and the quartet will be installed in
their new quarters. The four men for
whom the cage is designed are the
most intractible and murderous men
of the 2,300 now confined in the state
prison They are Otis Hurley. of
Montgomery county, Ira Marlatt, of
Columblana county, and Frank
O'Neill and John Atkinson, the Cleve-
land convicts who shot and killed
Guard Lauderbach last November in
an attempt to break out of prison.
The cage itself is simple structure
of steel bars, which incloses the doors
of our cells. The demons" when in
carcerated there will have full power
to do what they please to each other.
Little regret will be expressed by the
prison officials if the four exterminate
one another, for past experience has
shown that only in some such manner
can the lives of the guards and the
other prisoners at the institution be
secured.

The death of Col. Robert @. Inger-
SOIL impressed the world profoundly
Even thoSe people who are orohodoS
in religion got over the shock his
views gave them long ago He had
gentleness and sicnerity, and his pri-
vate character commended him to
those who were opposed to him on the
vital question. He was an excellent
lawyer and would have been a striking
figure in politics had he continued in
that line; but he will be best remem-
bered as the great agnostc." He was
a charming man, come even among
those who looked upon him as utterly
at fault in he ideas he preached. He
was an entertainer His Mistakes of
Moses" attracted even those who were
unshaken by him in their plous belief.
AT first it was claimed that he did
much harm, Now It is admitted even
by some olergymon. that he was fair
antagonist, and insisted on freedom of
thought and action that has been good
for all
Some of Colonel Ingersoll's tender
est eloquence was in his funeral ora
tions. The languauge was beautiful,
but the matter would scarcely stand
the test of analysis. He could give NO
promise after death. He could only
gid a melancholy and, from his point
of view an almost hopeless situation
with the beauties of phraseology. That,
though was good deal. He could
satisfy the yearning for sympathy. His
oration at an angostic funeral was as
and impressive as the
singing of "Rocll of Ages" over the
bier of a fun believer.
He was great agnostic," not be-
cause his theories were new or un-
common; but because he had great
powers of expression, and a personal
ity that entitled him to great respect.

The Cloud Getting Darker.

Admiral Dewey cables that '.for po-
should be hurried to Manila at once.
The announcement that political reas-
ons had developed in the Philippines
which demanded a stronger naval force
astonished the country. as well as the
Washington government. The presl-
dent and his cabinet are disposed, how
ever. TO look upon the matter with in
difference, saying that Dewey wants
the big ship to inspire fear in the
Filipinos, but that is nonsense in the
superlative degree. If the entire navy
of the nation were in Philippine waters
it could not extend the jurisdiction of
this country over more than strip
reaching back eight or ten miles from
the coast. and not then unless the
ships kept throwing shells all the time.
Dewey would have sent no such an
order for a ship to terrify the natives
He has over twenty craft OF various
kind already, which are more than
enough to give the land forces all need
ed naval cooperation. Moreover, we
regard the Filipinos as insurgents. and
hence we could have no political affairs
with them. If they wish to surrender
Otis will receive their arms and let
them go to their homes IN peace, but
there could not be political aspect of
the situation. Then Dewey must re-
fer TO something else. and it is not
difficult to see what it is. A great deal
of foreign property was destroyed at
Iloilo: the owners of it claim that it
was destroyed by shells from American
warships, and they are preparing to
demand payment in full of the United
States for their losses. Whether they
are telling the truth or not, the fact
remains that unless We pay the bills
without resorting to the tricks of the
diplomatic trade annoying political
complications will arise with Germany.
France, Japan and China, and possibly
with England.
Manila is absolutely under the juris-
diction of an American army. A few
days ago 700 buildings were destroyed
by fire aud business was brought to 8
foreigners. Now, the nations TO which
these foreigners belong would want no
better excuse to land troops at Manila
TO protect their subjects The fact
that she American Army could not or
did not prevent he great eonfagratiou
could be used as an argument that the

He Belongs To All.

Admiral Dewey's declaration that he
will not under any circumstances con-
sent TO become candidate for Presi-
dent is calculated TO cause a few am-
bitious gentlemen to sleep more sound
ly. The reasons he gives are good.
Politics is one thing. the navy is
another. He has spent his life in
mastering the duties and details of his
chosen profession. In the game of
politics he says he would be tyro and
the strain of political strife would be
unwelcome to his tastes; irritating and
unsatisfactory even should success be
its outcome
While Dewey would no doubt make
g most excellent President, his incum-
bency would create q vacancy in the
branch of public service of which he is
the head that would be hard to ill.
Where he is he occupies a unique
place IN the hearts of his couutrymen.
Their patriotic regard FOR him is un-
blurred by partisanship and unclouded
by political strife.
As Presidential candidate he would
be appropriated by a section of our
citizenship. As the great, wise and
victorious Admiral be is the pride and
possession of all.-St, Louis RepHblSc

Suppresslng Evidence.

When Rear Admiral Sampson was
under fire OF criticism for alleged
blunders and ungenerous eonduct, Sec
retary Long wrote an admirable letter
in his defense, suggesting that the peo-
pie ought not to regard peccadillos, but
should be satisfied with the glorious
results achieved.
Under this rule Rear Admiral Schlev
never ought to have been compelled to
reply to attacks made upon his record.
He answered every criticism when he
wrote In his forced defense:
Without any further instructions
from any one, did ascertain the fact
that the enemy was at Santiago and
the enemy did not move without a
decisive conflict n
But 1t appears in the case of Rear
Admiral Schley that Secretary Long
not only failed to overlook peccadillos,
but searched for them 10 order to in
jure hero who had achieved glorious
results, and even went so far as to sup
press vital piece of Information in
his official report to Congress. No
where in either Secretary Longs or
Admiral SIMPSONS reports was there
a reference to the important dispatch
from Sampson to Schley, quoted by the
latter. ordering him 10 ..hold his feet
of Gienfuegos," and saying that the
best plan was to hold Havana and
Cienfuegos until the whereabouts of
CerEera's feet could be determined.
This letter was vital to the question
of responsibility for Schley's delay at
Cienfuegos. Under such instructions
he could not leave Cienfuegos without
a supplementary order.
Why did Secretary Long suppress
this vital evidence of Schley's iustifca-
tion and of SIMPSONS responsibility
for the delay charged to Sehley? How
can he explain it? How can he escape
the charge that he, who should be
wholly impartial towards his subordi-
mates in the navy, has lent his power
to the misrepresentation and persecu-
ton of a naval hero?-St. Louis P.-D.
