sibility. Brother Jernegan wasn't an
impossibility.

A grubber after facts has had the

ers. The works of Correllle do not con-
tain. more than 1000 different words,

To overcome some of the peculiar DIFF
ficulties in the construction of the jung
frau railroad the Swiss engineers, with
their usual practical spirit have resort

with this exception, that electricity has
been substituted for steam, which is
deemed both practical and an econ
Dmical Improvement. The motive DOW
er Is derived from the waters of the
Lutschine, so that the glacier furnishes
itself the means to overcome it's resist
ance. The electric locomotive to be
used on this remarkable railroad is of
a new and ingenious type, and the con- |
templated average speed of the trains
will be four miles an hour; every train |
will consist of a locomotive and two
cars, and the entire weight will be
about twenty-eight tons.
Ohio men can get things and do
.hings. One Of them has succeeded in
lighting his house with incandescen+
electric lights for several months ot
practically no expense The arrange
nent Is so simple that there is no rea-
ion why it should not come into general
Use. He employs a dynamo, which he
built himself, running it by the force
# gravity. The man uses chimney,
it the top of which he placed a pulley,
|ver which runs a strong wire rope.
One end of this is attached to the dyna
no and wound around drum, while at
he other is a weight of three hundred
POUNDS. The drum about which the
ope is wound is connected with the dy-
lamo by train of geared wheels so
rranged that the slow motion of the
weight is multiplied many
lines over until the last geared wheel
rives the armature of the dynamo,
which revolves at a high rate of speed |
NE machine runs smoothly without |
oise and requires no other attention |
