Christian Endeavor services at S.
Mayor Browning has appointed as a
committee to handle the Ogden SEQ

raised in Ogden amount to about $500,
the exact amount contributed by Og-

management Of the Gentry show for
making them their guests yesterday

Minneapolis, May 1.-THE Journal
says: ~ a conference Of PopuIist and
silver leaders held last night after the
return OF the state delegation from
Sioux Falls, it was decided to push the
Towne vice presidential candidacy be-
tore all Democratic conventions to be
neld between now and the meeting of
the national convention at Kansas City.
Michigan has already declared Tor
TOWne. The Minnesota Democrats viii
do the same, and the ToWne leaders
count confidently upon the open or
tacit support Of all the northwestern
states at Kansas City. Towne also
stands well with the New England
anu-impeTialists by reason of his re-
cent speeches there. In fact, his candi-
d2cy really began as the result OF a
speech before the Bridgeport, Conn,
board OF trade. Connecticut Democratic
conventions win, il is claimed, declare
Tor him and the Massachusetts deiega-
ton already elected and pledged TO
George Fred Williams candidacy, is
expected 10 be swung to the Minnesota
man By Mr. Williams.
Developments in favor Of TOwne are
expected in Ohio at the approaching
Toledo conference of anti-administra-
ton leaders. TOwne headquarters are
to be established in Chicago very soon,
and it is limited that the necessary
financial backing is already assured,
and that it comes from the New Eng
landers who launched his candidacy.
The Lincoln Republican mass con-
ventiOn at Kansas City will also nomi-
nate Bryan and TOwne before the Dem
Ocratc convention gets down TO work,
and then its committee, together with
that of the Sioux Falls convention. will
urge on the Democrats the necessity of
indorsing the ticket. Meanwhile Eff
forts viii be made 10 have delegates
otherwise pledged name ToWne as sec

soeciafly made gathering rod, Win
which he brings down the golden drops.
This rod is generally in three sections,
so that its length may be regulated by

of the rod is a knife, and beneath II IS
a little pouch, such as is used on q
fruit picker, into which the piece OF
gum drops after being detached from
the tree by the knife. After getting
all the gum on a tree-and there is sell

the gum gatherer goes on TO the next

Not all spruces yield gum. Many OF

A number of guides who in the fishing

The life of the gum gatherer IS neces-

is also terribly lonesome. All winter

In q week from now, at most, the

installed. For the past two months or
more work on engines and coTnpreSS43rs
and liqueffers has been going ahead in
three different localities in New York

gallons Of liquid air every hour. have
been in course Of construction behind
the locked doors Of the inventor s
laboratory. These lots Of machinery
have been assembled and tested and
were shipped only a few days ago.
Besides the apparatus for the manu-
facture Of the visible air. there VIII
be little motor engines to be run by the
strange LIQUID, the power coming from
the expansion of the air as it Vap0riZeS.
Model eoInrressors and liquefiers VIII
show how the work is done from start
to finish. In fine, those who visit the
coolest place in Paris during the expo
sition will find a complete laboratory,
showing all the processes Of transfer
nation from invisible to visible air
through 400 degrees Of temperature,
and the application Of intense cold to
commercial, domestic and scientific
uses.
What will probably impress the VS.
itor most will be the pTOd5gality Of
those in charge. At least, that has al
ways impressed the visitors TO the New
York laboratory. Tt is not so long ago
that Professor Dewar produced the first
ounce Of LIQUID air at cost OF S3,Uy0,
and for many months he could not re-
duce the cost Of an ounce below $500.
Here viii be an apparatus, however,
which the inventor claims Will make
LIQUID air at a cost Of only cents

gaIity. after all, in using up thirty or
forty gallons of liquid air every hour
If this claim as to cost be true.
Practical Uses of Visible Air
Refrigeration is the most obvious use
to which visible air can be put. Ice
costs about So a ton noIninally. Eleven
gallons of liquid air. if placed In a
cylinder and allowed to expand gIa0-
ualIv. has refTfgerating power equal 70
one ton Of ice. The eleven gallons or
LIQUID air cost A cenks: thus there IS
q saving Of 81. rs in producing the same
degree Of cold that may be produced

Ii0uid air is a. very dry cold; that pro
dnced by ice is a very damp cold; Ter
most purposes the former is obviously
much better.
