Good Blood Medicine.

"I became convinced of the merit
of Hoods Sarsaparilla when took it
myself as blood purifier. So, when
my husband had boils and carbuncles |
urged him to take Hoods and the re-
suit was that when he had used but
one bottle the boils had nearly all dis
appeared. He continued the use of
the medicine and after taking two
bottles he was completely cured. and,
as he expressed it, felt as if he was on
earth for the second time. He has
never had any boils since. We take
Hoods as spring medicine and gladly
recommend it." Mrs. A. L. STAYsA,

BY CENTRIFUGAL FORCE.

A Powderless Machine That Fires
Three Thousand Projectiles a Min
ute
Our Newcastle-on-Tyn correspondent
informs us that machine gun of q
novel character has been invented by
James Judge, welI-known engineer
of Newcastle, who thus describes it,
The gun is a patent centrifugal
quick-firing machine gun; 1t is five feet
high and weighs five hundred weight.
1t Is intended for battleship earth
works and garrison purposes. The mo-
tive power is electricity transmitted to
a motor attached to the side of the gun.
The motor causes a disk to revolve at
which are introduced into the interior
of the disk at the axle, travel along
curves In the interior to the circumfer-
ence, and are there impelled through a
barrel. 1t Is claimed that this disk will
rotate under the influence Of the motor
al the rate Of twelve thousand revolu-
lions minute, and will eject shots
from the muzzle of the gun with an in
itlal velocity of two thousand feet per
second One of the chief characteris-
tics of the gun Is that 1t will maintain
a continuous fire. If necessary, a shot
may be discharged at every half revo-
luton, but in practice one shot every
fourth revolution will be found suffi-
client. The bullets are spherical and
measure sixteenth of an inch in
diameter.
The following are the results Of the
tests already made with the gun.
Eighteen thousand rounds of shot at
the rate of three thousand a minute
have been discharged from the gun.
These shots consisted of nickel steel,
some Of brass Gas used in Franco, lead
and chilled metal. 1t was tested seven
times privately, no motor was used, nor
is one yet attached to the gun, although
the gun Is constructed for an electric
motor. The tests were made by means
of a belt driven by q steam engine
Under these conditions the velocity re-
quired and which it Is maintained an
electric motor will produce was not, of
course, attained, but the practical
working of the gun was fully demon

because of the necessity of secrecy, and
the testing was done In a covered shed
at Blyth dry docks.
A steel target, 3-32-inch thick, was
shattered, the disk Of the gun revolving
at a speed of twenty-five hundred revo-
buttons per minute From the penetra-
ton of the target 1t Is calculated that
at distance of four hundred yards
penetration of a similar character will
be effected ola plate seven-sixteenth of
aninch thick under the influence of an
electric motor. There iS no heating of
the barrel of the gun, because of the
continuous stream of cold air which is
impelled throughit by theturning of the
disk The disk itself is also free from
heating on account Of the special bear
ings on which it % constructed These
bearings area highly complicated me-
chanical contrivance, and are similar to
those used in Parsons turbines, which
can revolve at the rate of twenty-five
thousand revolutions a minute, and Le-
Wallis motor, which revolves at the rate
of thirty thousand a minute. To test
the gun thoroughly it will be necessary
to affix a motor which will be a five
horse power motor coupled direct on to

The Italian Actress on Divers Subjects

To save the theater, the theater must
be destroyed, the actors and actresses

1t is not drama that they play, but
pieces for the theater We should re-
turn to the Greeks, play in the open
air; the drama dies Of stalls and boxes
and evening dress, and people who
come to digest their dinner.
Since Shakespeare and the Greeks
there has been no great dramatist, and
these gathered up into themselves the
whole work of their contemporaries.

| tober Pennsylvania sold below 12S. 1t has
| been actively traded in by energetic bull
| interests since that time, and great varie-
| ty Of assertions have been made as to the
Forthcoming benefits of the stock. 1t was
alleged that the stock would be placed up
on per cent basis; also that distribuc,
| ton would be made of large portion or
the great surplus. On the other hand the
belief has prevailed that the company
would persist in the regular dividend rate
OF ~ per cent. semi-annually, which mas
prevailed ever since 1904. Reviewing these
past conditions, 1t is fair to assume tnat
to-day 5 action was disappointment TO
some of the active bulls in the stock, while
lt was certainly an agreeable surprise 10
the conservative element in the street. BUT
when it is considered that the net earnings
of the Pennsylvania railroad system have
increased during nine months Of the year
more than $d0oo,oO0 over last year, to-daayy's
rate or distribution seems moderate. Inc
extra dividend will involve the disburse-
ment Of a little over 81 600. The stocks
net gain was "a, and the trading was re-
markedly quiet. There was a considerable
show Of strength in Sugar Refining. The
advance was attended by rumors that
break In the prices of refined sugars Is i'm
minent. Business in the market at large
was too small to have any important effect
on prices, though the market closed with
level somewhat above last night, after hay
ing ben at ont time shade lower. A single
lot of Lake Shore sold just below the close
at 23o, after having sold yesterday at 30
The closing bid was sold at 210A. Nothing
could be learned to account for this small
but urgent demand. The repression of
speculation is still attributed to the influ-
ence of what are called the controlling in
terests" in the market. The rise in the call
loan rate to-day to per cent. may have
some bearing on the extreme dullness OF
the speculation. Stock market demands up
on the money market during the week have
been extremely moderate, and further re-
ceipts to-day of imported gold brought the
total up to nearly 100000 on that ac-
count. Not a dollar has been transferred
to the interior through the sub-treasury
since last Friday. That call loans should
have stiffened to-day under these circum-
stances argues some special demand on the
money market The demand Is probably
due to the making of arrangements for No
yember dividend disbursements. and will
therefore be temporary and followed by an
abundant return to the market within a
few days.
