Invention If j Bsllsirs Nan Attract
ing Attention.
ITS CAPACITY Is SIX TINES THAT
OF THE DEC1vES NOW IN USE.
COMPANY TO BE ORGANIZED
FOR IT'S MANUFACTURE.

A Bellaire man has applied for
patent upon an electrical coal mining
machine which bids fair to accomplish
much for the industry when once intro
duced and placed in operation. It's
points of superiority which recommend
it to the attention of the mining In
terests is speed, facility of manipula-
tion. and economy in the expenditure
of power. The machine has been ex-
amined by number OF electrical and
mining experts, and has uniformly
been pronounced correct in principle
and marvel of mechanical genius.
Those not familiar with the labor
saving devices in common use in this
industry will understand that the ma
chine now in vogue comprises
sprocket wheel. TO which is attached
what are technically known as bits,
similar in form TO the eage end of a.
chisei, and that it is these pieces OF
sharp metal that cut the mineral as
the sprocket reyolves. The bits are
seraped along the face of the coal, to
which they are held by strong lateral
pressure. The present machines cut
but forty inches, while the one in
question cuts twelve feet, with q
maximum reach of twenty feet. re-
curing but two settings for a room "a
feet in width Its capacity is easily six
time saS great as that of any other
make, and the power necessary to
propel it is only one-third as great.
40 txrns sr1- a ~
pounds, and can easily be operated
with l0-horse power and the services
OF two men. The machines now in use
weigh from $500 to 1900 pounds, and
require 3O-horse power to propel them.
The principle upon which the ma
chine is constructed is that of an &C.
centric wheel with a semi-rotary mo-
ton. 1t strikes the coal much as the
miner does with a pick at the rate OF
400 strokes per minute. The length
is only seven feet and the movements
of the machinery is sidewise, thus per-
hitting it TO be operated within some-
thing like half the space of other
channeling machines. The floor is also
left level, which is distinct advan-
tage.
While the machine has been thor4
oughly tested by the patentee, its work.!
ings will be exhibited in one of the
Bellaire mines within the next THREE
weeks for final test. The work az
constructing the machine to be used i'm
this test Us in the hands of an expert
machinist, and there is no fear but
that it will prove all that is claimed
for it.
The inventor of the machine is T. NJ.
Gallagher, well known miner, who re-
sides on Union street, Bellaire. and
whose numerous inventions and i'm
provements of mining tools gives him
prestigein this, his most important UNI
dertaking.
If the machine demonstrates its USE
fulness, as it Is firmly vilieved 1t will,
a company will be organized in Bell
ARE Immediately for its manufacture.

During the past week it has been in

ITS control Of cycle racing. It may be
possible that the authority for that
statement obtains his information
from a power higher than that of the
secretary of the International Cyclists
Association. Secretary Sturmey has
held that important Office ever since the
organization of the /. C. A., consequent
ly he is one of it's most enthusiastic
supporters. The strength Of the organ
ization and the way that its power is
enforced on European tracks, is shown
by the fact that all American riders
who have gone to Europe during the
past few months have been Obliged to
be reinstated by the l.. A. ". before
they could compete on the foreign
tracks.
So far as can be ascertained, there
is no information either from public

Of food made with alum baking pow
ders and the opinions that have been
published from noted scientists to the

of such Importance do the food COM

names of the alum powders are OFF,

of the latter two States have provided
that there shall be printed in plain

they contain alum.

that many grocers are selling what they

sell a ptwder with his own name upon
the label, especially as he can make
an abnormal profit upon it. Many gro
GERS, doubtless, do not know that the
powders that they are thus pushing

contraband in many sections il sold
without disguise.
1t is quite impossible to give the
names of all the alum baking powders
in the market. They are constantly
appearing in all sorts of DISCUSSES and
under all kinds of cognomens. They
can be avoided, however, by the house
keeper who will bear in mind that all
baking powders sold at twenty five
cents or less per pound are liable to
contain alum, as pure cream of tartar
powders cannot be produced at any
thing like this price.
