SOLVES THE ROTARY
A NEW WORKING
ENGINE
SATISFACTORY TEST MADE
Successful Result OF Years of Study
to Produce What Is Expected
to ReVOIutIOnize the Make
of Engines.

SALTWATER, Mimi, March 11.-(Spe-
cial.)-The honor Of having perfected q
rotary engine rightfully belongs to
Charles Fischer resident of this city,
who, on Saturday, demonstrated his sue
cess at test given In d. M SWANS
foundry, where he built an engine during
the past winter, having one-horse power.
Fischer has for many years been engaged
on the steamer Clyde. and is known by
engineers as a thorough mechanic. For
years he has been studying the subject
of rotary engines, and last fall became
possessed of ideas which he carried into
execution. The cylinder of the engine is
less than three inches in diameter and Is
encircled by brass collar.
When he was ready to start the en-
CINE Saturday, he turned the steam into
the cylinder, but the engine refused to
bulge, and Fischer's hopes were mo-
mentarily dashed. bat he happened to re-
alize that brass expands and after trim
ming the collar he made another test and
the engine started without trouble. 1t
has an easy motion and gives lots of
power. Fischer said he expected to get
about 1900 revolutions per minute out Of
the engine, but the first test showed
speed of $500.
In view of the fact that the new in
vention is not yet patented he does not
wish to disclose how his engine Is made,
but many engineers and mechanics who
saw the engine in operation say It Is a
wonder and that 1t will do more than
the inventor claims for 1t. He naturally
feels highly elated over his success and
will secure patent rights as soon as pos
sible A great advantage possessed by
the engine is that while running at full
speed 1t can be reversed. The engine
operates without a governor, and George
Dougherty, of st. Paul, who was present
at the first test, said he bore down upon
the f1ywheel for the purpose of test 'ng
the power and says that his combined
weight and strength made no percaptible
difference in the speed of the engine. A
more thorough test will be made Monday,
when the engine will be attached to a
lathe in the shop.

I'm the spring I go out as a bridge car
penter, which is my trade. and work un-
til the harvest begins. When work in
the harvest fields Is over I come back to
Minneapolis and go to grating, 1t beats

me $40 a month and board. I swore a
solemn oath I'd never work again in the

Anderson is under arrest, and Is sus-
pected of swindling hundreds of families
in the Twin Cities by securing bogus SUBJ
scriptions for papers and periodicals. In
conversation yesterday with Detective
Ed O'Connor, who, In company with De-
tective Thomas Murphy, has handled the
complaints which have come to the police
about Anderson, the latter furnished the

There is also a warrant out charging

an interview Judge Wilson said:
80 far as the heads of the two tickets
are concerned IT will be the same old fight
Of 1896; Mckinley and Bryan will run
against each other. AS for their running
mates l have no idea who they will be.
! look for an enormous crowd here in
July. People are coming from Colorado
by the thousands. All the West will send

national convention be held at their very
doors and not see it. Nothing will let
them overlook this opportunity"

WEEK At THE CAPITAL
HOUSE WILL BE DULL, THE SEN
ATE LIVELY.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 1.-THE
week in the house promises to be rather
dull. Tomorrow the contested election
case of Wise VS.. Young from-the Vir-
GINA district, which has been debated
for two days, will be voted upon. Dr.
Wise, the contestant, who is a Repub-
lican, was seated by former congress
on contest, and indications are that he
will be seated.
Tuesday the conference on the financial
bill will be disposed Of There may
be some lively debate upon the
report, but 1t will command the
full party strength on the Re
publican side, and will be adopted. The
remainder of the week will be devoted
to appropriation bills, of which two have
been reported to the house. the army
and the District of Columbia bills.
The senate will continue to give at
tention to the Puerto Rican bill and the
Quay resolution this week, with a prob
ability that there may be a decision in
favor Of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty and
Senator Mason's Boer resolution Mr.
Mason says 1t is his purpose to call up
his resolutions again, and to get a vote
upon them If possible, Senator Davis
has expressed an intention TO ask the SEN
ate to take up the treaty during the lat
ter part Of the week, but Senator For
aKer, IN charge or the Puerto Rican bill,
expresses confidence that Senator Davis
VIII not bring the treaty forward in time
to embarrass the Puerto Rican measure.
Speeches on the Puerto Rican question
will begin Monday. Senators Rawlins and
Turner and probably later In the week,
Senator Nelson Will be heard The de-
bate on this measure will be very gen
elal,- and possibly quite spirited. The
members of the committee on order of
business emphatically con tfadict the re-
ports that the committee is exerting its
influence to secure the amendment for
the Puerto Rican bill, saying that the
committee has nothing to- do with the
formation of Legislation The senate will
meet at 10 o'clock Monday, two hours in
advance of the usual hour of converting,
in order to take up the Alaskan code bill,
the reading Of which has not yet been
completed.

public meeting at the Columbia theater,
held in the interest of the National
Junior Republican, which has it's head
quarters at Annapolis Junction. The OBJ
ject of the Republican Is to provide for
| the boys of Washington and Baltimore,
| especially those without homes, place
where they can be taught to care for and
govern themselves. Senator Depew made
an interesting talk, in the course Of which
he said:
81 am always suspicious of philan-
| thrOpy. 1t comes to me in SO many forms
| and so many guises seeking help In
many cases either the individual Is
fraud or the cause he represents is
of all charitable efforts are productive
of more harm than good. They increase
pauperism and encourage paupers to re-
main as such. Especially is 1t true in
England that most of the money con-
tributed for charitable work is absorbed
in the salaries and office rent of those
directing its expenditure.
1 have observed that a scholarship in
one of our colleges that provides for all
the wants of the student holding it usual
ly turns out an indifferent or worthless
man, while a scholarship that only sup
plements the efforts of the student pro-
ducts are especial and useful citizens,
ana OIten man OF brilliant parts. The
men who have become great are they
who have had had to work their way
| through college
It is because 1t teaches help and
| self-reliance that l like the work of
! junior republic The problem that con-
! fronts us in America Is the concentration
| of population in great cities. There the
boy lacks the beneficial environment of
| good home and good neighbors, and is
| surrounded by vice and temptation. The
| mere education of a boy who grows up
with such surroundings may only make
him the more dangerous a citizen In
! every large city there are hundreds and
| thousands of boys whose surroundings
| tend to make them villains and rascals.
| murderers, or ballot box suffers and
ward heelers. How are we to save them?
| Various remedies have been proposed.
| Some say by education, but the mere
! education of such a boy may make him
| only the more dangerous as a citizen
| The reform school has been tried. but
! this arouSeS antagonism in the bow s
| breast, and makes him hate the law and
the powers that enforce It. AS remedial
measures / think both Of these plans are
! failures. You have got to appeal to the
manhood Of the boy. and have got to
raise his self-respect.
| Addresses also were made by Mr.. Blair.
Mr.. Thomas c. Moves and several officers
of the Republican party. letter of
regret was read from Hon John Hay.
