TUBULAR CHIMES.
The Famous Westminste Harmonies
Are RunE In the Keney
Tower I'm Hartford.

The clock in the Keney Memorial
tower at Tunnel square has begun to
toll the hours, and the tubular chimes
which are connected with the clock
mark the quarter hours by repeating in
measures of four notes the famous
'WestEiiEster Chimes"
The set in the Keney Tower, says the
Hartford Courant, is made up of five
tubes which hang in q frame suspended
by Manila tarred rope, and are struck
by hammers operated by clock work.
The largest of the five tubes is feet
inches in length and S inches in diam
eter, weighs $50 pounds, and is keyed to
"A natural. This tube is simply for the
striking of the hour, and has nothing to
do with the production of the chime
music. The next smaller of the tubes
Is four inches shorter and weighs 220
pounds. The key of it is B natural, and
it is the heaviest of the chimes. The
other three tubes are: E natural, z feet
inches, 100 pounds; T sharp, feet,
100 pounds, and q sharp, feet inches,
140 pounds.
The tubes are of soft brass and are
drawn in the usual manner by hydraul-
ic pressure, the tone being governed by
the length, the diameter and thickness
OF the metal forming the tube. The
tone Is soft and melodious, and has a
radius of about one mile under favor
able conditions. The vibrations last for
two minutes, whereas the vibrations of
the largest bell last for only one min
ute.

comes to the mind after reading his book

the question, but answers it in a direct

FIRE ENGINE SEARCHLIGHT.
mates of Burning Buildings
Who Are Unconscious.

Fire Chief Croker completed the
plans for the fire engine searchlight
which he expects will increase the
efficiency of the New York fire force
50 per cent. Chief Croker describes
the engine from his plans as follows:
"The new engine will be one of our
regular fire engines, but in place of the
pumping machinery it will be
equipped with a dynamo connected to
a high speed engine. On the platform
just behind the driver have mounted
two 18-inch marine projectors. Each
protector will be fitted with a special
diverging lens, with which the beam.
Of light may be spread out to cover
as wide an area. as desired. Il the
tests are successful we will have one
searchlght engine in each division of
the department. When the new en-
CINE is in service and persons are re-
ported to be still in the building afre,
the searchlight will be taken by fire
men up the dark stairways and into
the rooms, where it will quickly re-
veal any object"

WE'D AFTER TWENTY YEARS.
Couple Long Separated Brought To-
gether by Assistant Chief
Lewis of Chicago.

Lyman Lewis, assistant chief of po-
lice Of Chicago, received a letter the
other day from a newly welded pair
now in Wilkesbarre, Pa, which says:
eve wish to thank you for our happi-
ness. You have certainly proved a
veritable cupid" The assistant chief
laughed softly and bit off the end of a
25-cent cigar. Between whiffs Of the
fragrant weed he told the story.
Twenty years ago George smale
and Margaret Tucker lived in Lowell,
Mass" he said. ''They loved and
were engaged to be married, but as he
was 10 and she two years younger
stern parents counseled delay till the
young persons were old enough to
know. They parted and Margaret's
parents moved from Lowell and the
couple lost track of each other. Then
George married another and Miss Tuck
er came west. Mrs. Smale died three
years since, and George thought of his
old love. He traced her to Chicago,
but She had left here five years before.
I located her in Milwaukee and gave
her Georges address. Last week she
arrived in Wilkesbarre and became
Mrs. Smale. That's all there is to the
romance, which began nearly a quar-
ter of a century ago. I guess it's a
pretty good romance at that and the
assistant chief knocked the ash off his
cigar,
