The Resources of Siberia.

Under government encouragement
it is said that Siberia is gaining 200.
600 farmers per year. Among it's ex-
ports are cereals, butter, wool, leather
and dried and preserved meats. Al
ready this remote country, which the
popular imagination is apt to picture
as vast waste, the abode of frost and
snow and misery, is becoming talked
of as possible competitor with the
we'll known cereal producing countries
OF the world. A member of the French
bureau of foreign commerce estimates
that, on the basis of the present popu-
lation in Europe, Siberia can sustain
100000 inhabitants, although now
1t has not one-tenth of that number.
1t produces one-tenth of the world IS
yield of gold, but owing to climatic
obstacles many of its mines are not
worked, and its immense coal depos--
it's have hardly been touched.

sTUMPPs REMOVED WITH LITTLE
EXERTION.

in the picture seems to have these
advantages to recommend it. 1t has
been patented by one Theodore H. Me-
Cain OF Washington, and is light
enough to be carried On the shoulder
OF the man who operates it. AS will
be seen, the connection between the
stump and sond tree or more firmly
set stump is made by means of ropes
and pulleys, with a chain connecting
one pulley to the winding drum. This
winding drum has external teeth
over which the links of the chain fit to
prevent slipping, affording a much
hrmer hold than If the ropes were
wound directly around the drum. A
long lever is used to rotate the drum
and rachel device locks the drum
against backward revolution while a
new hold is being taken with the lev
er. BY working the lever back and
forth the chain ;, is gradually drawn
through the drums until the stump
roots give way.

a SMOKE CONSUMER.

Powdered coal is the fuel Of the fu-
ture, according to the otilcials of the
Illinois Central railroad. who have
been experimenting for the last month
with a device for making use of coal
dust. Two boilers at the railroads
power house, Chicago, have been
equipped with the new invention. and
tests OF efficiency and economy in the
use Of coal will be continued for the
/ next thirty days. At the end Of that
time the railroad men claim they will
nave demonstrated that coal when
ground fine enough is the best and
cheapest fuel available, as we'll as be-
Ing absolutely smokeless.
The subject Of coal-dust firing has
occupied the attention Of engineers all
over the world for years. but the idea
has only recently been put into prac-
teal shape. For coal-dust firing the
coal must be ground to q powder as
line as wheat flour.
Inc appliances now In use at the
railroad power house are simple. A
large hopper above the door of the fire.
oox receives the dust. which is put up
IN oags-seventy pounds to the bag.
From this hopper the powdered coal is
Jared down by an automatic shaker
70 revolving brush with steel bristles.
AT the same time currents of air are
admitted at one side and the top of the
brush. Revolving several hundred
times minute, this brush throws the
particles Of coal into the firebox, where
they are instantly in state of COM
bustion. Dampers for the further adj
mission OF air are placed below the
brush.
These appliances were placed on ex-
tina boilers. the only change necessary
being the construction Of a front fac
ing of brick about two feet deep.
Tests were made yesterday after
noon. when the other four boilers in
the power house, which are hand-fired,
p, were shut off and the two boilers hav-
ing the new devices were used to oper-
ate the entire plant. Bags of dust
were poured into the hopper as re-
CURED, and the fire got no other atten-
ton during the two hours test except
an occasional adjustment of the damp
ers and the feeders. Illinois coal,
quoted at $1.4O per ton. was the fuel,
and the officials declared that, so far
as they could see, it was doing the
work as well as the better grades for
merly used. The coal is dumped into
circular pit. where six hammers,
each striking 100 blows a minute,
pound the mass until it is fine enough
to drop through meshes at the bottom
of the pit.
1t was claimed that the adoption of
this arrangement by the city would
give an easy solution of the garbage
problem, as the intense heat would in
stantly consume the rubbish Expert
ments are being pushed to demonstrate
whether the system is suitable for use
on the roads locomotives. Tests will
be made of the apparatus in several of
the large smelling works within the
next month.

Advantages Of Electric FRICTION.

Sir'W. H. Preece says that one great
advantage of electric over steam trac-
ton on railroads is that it impre:ses
a continuous and uniform torque, or
turning, on the shaft, while the action
of the steam locomotive is intermit-
tent. The consequence is that wheels
driven by an electric motor get con-
tinuous "bite" on the rails. as steam
driven rails do not. By means of this
constant grip, slipping on greasy rails
is avoided. It is also possible. with
electric traction; to apply the maxi
mum torque at once, and thus to bring
railroad train up. to its greatest
speed much more quickly than is pos
sible with steam. traction. This adj
vantage is especially valuable on city
lines. where stoppages are frequent
and distances between stations ahort

THE GHOST OF AIRLIE.

Who heard the ghostly drummer of Cortachy castle beat the death roll of the late earl of Airlie?
 His spectral tattoo is ever the her aid of death tn the heads of the Ogil- vys. In bygone times there was drummer who drummed for the "Bonny House of Airly.' The wretched player Noffended the earl of those days and was tied up ill his own drum and flung from the high tower. After vainIy pleading for his life the poor little drummer threatened that his ghost should haunt the family forever and ever.
 Legend has it that generation after generation the dead drummer has sounded the last position earl and coun- tess of Airlie. and the roll of his drum has through the long centuries blanch- ed the faces of many inmates of Cor tachy castle.
 In 1S45 a visitor to Cortachy was dressing for dinner. A tattoo was beat en beneath her window. The lady lis tened in surprise, for as far as she knew there were no landsmen at the castle. Going down to dinner she said to her host:
 Who is it that plays the drum 50 skillfully outside the castle?"
 The earl turned pale and shivered. The countess could not hide her fear The face of every Ogilvy at the table was deadly white. Within a week the countess lay in her shroud. The drum mer was the specter of Cortachy castle.
 A few years later young English man who was to shoot with Lord Og- ivy, the eldest son, at the Tulchan, d shooting lodge at the head of Glenshee, missed his way. The night was wild, and darkness had long set in before he saw the lights of the shooting lodge. Then up the glen came the long roll of the drum. There could be no mistak- ing it. Who could be playing out of doors on such a night, he asked Lord Ogilvy. Silence" was his only an swer. It was the dead drummer f COrtachy castle. The earl of Airiie died in London within less than a week.
 When the father of the earl of Airlie, who fell in South Africa, died, it is said that the drummer did not sound his drum. It may be true. Perhaps be has not beaten it on this occasion. But the countryside will not be denied their ghost, and it may be that We shall soon hear that the spectral drum was heard at Cortachy the day before the gallant cavalryman fell in South Africd.-Lon- don Mail.
