srs Into Zsphyra
OAsPs 70 the oovesaasat aA AUHs-
AAtie G1A Device Which, He
Ayers, VIII Make . Sieve Of
Any TAasI-0Aapsd ClouS

The invention of the "eyclone an
nihilator" is announced by +. ID. Belts,
an artist, whose studio Is at "a Adams
street. Chicago. The device has been
offered to the United States govern
ment by the inventor, who asserts it
will blot out cyclones in every instance.
leaving no bad effect. He makes his
offer to the government with some pro-
visos, but asks nothing in the way of
pecuniary compensation. The hvsn-
ton was made in the interest of hu-
manity. he says, and if the government
wishes to benefit the people by provid-
ing them with these annihilators he will
turn over to il his patent rights.
The annihilator. says the Chicago
Tribune, is a small cannon with a
weather vane and an air trigger. The
weather vane is for the purpose of
aiming the cannon, which rests upon n
vertical pivot. When cyclone ap-
proachcs the vane turns the cannon 80
it points directly at the funnel-shaped
cloud. When the wind reaches a veloci-
ty of 65 miles an hour it will spring the
trigger and fire the cannon. The pro-
jectile fired into the revolving cloud
will throw il off its balance and ii will
scatter into a harmless zephyr.
Mr.. Belts says he got his inspiration
from a story of a hunter who was over
taken on prairie in Iowa by tornsdo.
The storm was bearing down on him
with such speed he had no chance to get
into a cyclone cellar. The only other
thing to do was to take n shot at the
gyruting column. He let go both bar
rels and then tried to say some short,
quick prayers. The funnel quit twist
ing, stopped stock still. and slowly
spread out on the sky like the smoke
from river tug. and fioated gracefully
away.

non and a eannoneer are kept on duty
to look out for and shoot holes in any
cyclone that approaches the town.
That's my device exactly" said In
sentor Belts, with the difference that
do not need cannoneer. suppose
this Oklahoma artilleryman is not At his
.ahnon, what would happen to the town
when the twister came: With my au-
tomatic machine the twister can't steal
any marches"
In a letter on the subject Mr.. Beta
says:
"Once more we have witnessed the
dircful effects of the merciless cyclone,
and once more the dollar-hunting deni-
zens of the earth realize the importance
OF some scheme to cheat this soulless
monster of its prey, and once more do
offer to this government of the people
and for the people my device for ami
hilating said twistsr."
The terms on which he offers his
patent rights TO the government are
that the nnnihilators be furnished to
the people at cost. He also provides
chimes at proht of ten per cent, but
that monarchics shall be made to pay a
price that will yield 100 per cent. profit.
For himself Inventor Betts asks moth
ing.
II WAS the oriRianl intention of Mr..
| Belts that his machines should not be
placed within mile of any church, las
k.,
churches being under Providential pro-
lection" On thinking it over Mr.. Belts
concluded as follows.
"But I can now see wherein my zeal
overbalanced my better judgment. and
| will therefore withdraw that clause
and recommend that they be placed on
churchea free of charge"
The cannon, or mortar, which Mr..
Ret,s would employ has caliber OF
two inches. The projectile is OF rub
her, containing an explosive charge
ind fuse, so it will explode when II
reaches n vital spot in the tornado. An
air drum is attached to the trigger.
When pressure of 81 pounds to the
square inch is exertcd on the drum by
the wind II yields, releases the trigger
and fires the cannon. The cost of such
n machine Mr.. Belts puts at $40.
Mr.. Belts AYERS unlimited faith In the
annihilator. rt rr

the same way. although none but the

they have plenty of rough games in
