ARRIVE
NEW PACIFIC MAIL LINERS.

San Francisco, Feb. 5.-Early in 1901
the Pacific Mail Company's fleet will
be increased by two of the largest
steamers ever built in the United
States, and the equal of any of the
transatlantic liners with the eXcep-
ton of the Oceanic and Kaiser Will
helm der Crosse. They are to displace
about 1S,40O tons, and will steam close
to twenty knots an hour in their pass
age between San Francisco and the
Orient. There will be luxurious apart
ments for $50 first-class passengers.
their staterooms, dining and smoking
rooms. social halls. Libraries and grand
saloons being placed amidship, while
aft and forward there will be ample ac-
commodations for 1900 Storage pass
engers.
The steamers will be SIS feet In
length over all, or $50 feet between per-
pendiculars. The nodded beam will
pe 63 feet. while the depth of hold will
be 40. The gross tonnage will be H..
900, which is the same size as the Cam
pania. Lucania. Cymric. Gray Valdez
see and Pennsylvania. They will both
be driven by quadruple expansion en-
of which will be $4,000. The cylinders
of these engines will each measure 35,
80, 10 and 100 inches in diameter, by
66-inch stroke of piston. In each ship
there will be six double ended and two
single ended cylindrical Scotch boil
ers, each 16 feet in diameter. The
working pressure will be 200 pounds
to the square inch. All modern access
series. such as electric lighting, Ice
making machine, steam steering gear,
etc, will be included in the general
outfit.

EMPEROR NOT OPPOSED.

Picking. Feb. 1T is generally be-
lieved that the Dowager Empress will
not attempt the formal deposition uf
the Emperor at the present moment,
though that this was her first Intention
there is little room to doubt.
1t Is gathered from creditable Chi
nese sources that the Dowager intended
to carry out her plans during the first
days Of the new year. Everything had
been prepared for the coup but ut the
last moment representations TO her
that such course probably would
create serious opposition in the south
and this induced her to temporarily
abandon her decision.
There is much anxiety in native
quarters regarding the Dowagcr En-
press next move. II Is generally
thought, however. that she will allow
affairs to remain as at present until
she is able to ascertain to certainty
what attitude the Emperor's party is
likely to assume. There Is little rea-
son to believe that the Emperor's Is
strongly enough united to make Sc
rious trouble whatever action the
Dowager Empress make take.

MAKING A HEAVY GUN.
Takes Longer Than the Consteuction of
the Ship That Carries II.

the Ship That Carries 1t.
Mr.. w. J.. Gordon sketches Wool
wich arsenal in the Leisure Hour.
Among a host of interesting descrip-
tons may be selected here what he
says about the making of a gun: I'm
their early stages these guns are I'M
expectedly long and slender things, ow-
ing to their being without the coils
and Jackets that build them up to such
bulkiness. They look their longest
during their wiring, that modern proc
less which enabled us to reduce the bulk
OF the gun so much that the podgy
Woolwich infants have developed into
graceful boys. There is something
startling in finding a gun being treated
like a bat-handle, the only difference
being that instead of waxed thread
you wind on a thin fiat strip of steel
having a breaking strain of 100 tons
to the square inch, and wind this on
In several layers instead of one. The
gun revolves in a lathe as the cricket
bat does, but much more slowly, and
IN place of the wooden spool of thread
oIoA1uo, d. IlSuC Angles 10 III, d
huge iron reel, from which the riband
or wire, as it is called, which is about
a quarter of al inch wide, is wound
on spirally at high tension, the spirals
being knocked up tight to each other
with a punch whenever they fail to
wind on closely together. The gun is
thus wrapped with literally miles of
wire, mostly in the region of the pow
der chamber. Over the wire Jacket
come the hoops of cast steel cut out
of ingots as disks, and forged into
rings just a trine smaller than the fin
ger they are 10 fit and when these
finished they are one by me-, for
there are many CT them, heated just
enough TO expand them. and slipped
over the gun to shrink and grip it as
they cool, the gun being upright at the
time, with a stream OF water flowing
through it's bore tt keep the tempera-
down. In this way wiring is all
hidden, and the gun looks as though it
we're built up entirely Of these mas
slve hoops, as it used to be. The lathe
and other operations necessitated
all this may be imagined, and we
cease to wonder why it takes longer to
make a heavy gun than it does to build

THE ROYAL

German Emporor's Little Daughter Gives
a Five o'clock Tea"
Princess Victoria Luise. the onIv
daughter of the German emperor and
empress, celebrated her return from
the mountains by entertaining all her
little friends at a five o'clock" where
chocolate was served, and not tea.
There are SO few little princes and
pr1ncesses of tender yea that little
people of less exalted rank were includ-
ed among the invited guests. These
latter, a little shy at their first intro
duction into imperial circles, were re-
ceived by the gracious hostess in such
an informal manne that they felt at
home at once. She has inherited house
wife capability from her charming
mamma, and she insisted upon dealing
out to each separate his or her share
OF cake and chocolate. AS each child
left it received as a souvenir a package
OF chocolate, attached to which was a.
small portrait of the fascinating little
imperial hostess. 1t was all a very
great success She is not only beloved
by her father, mother and six brothers,
but the entire imperial household is at
her feet. This little sprite can do with
her father as she likes, and at the same
hour every morning she runs into his
study and delights him with her va
rious accomplishments from day to
day, such as a new verse in French,
German or English, or anything that
she thinks will please him. She is FIVE
years old, very blonde, with expressive
blue eyes, and enjoys to the utmost
every moment of her until now I'M
clouded life. The mother and little
daughter are inseparable, and in this
way the little n has become quite a
traveller, and she has seen more lands
than many a grown person.

tain kind of mail box represented in
the accompanying cut. This box is a
unique continuance fitted with auto
matte signal flags so that the passing
carrier a see at a glance if there is
any mail deposited in it for him to col
lect. 1t is also a receptacle for deliv-
cred mail, and a different colored flag
apprises the householder when the car
rler leaves any mail in the box. One
or the flags is white and the other red.
The box is to be affixed to a post near
the street convenient for the carrier.
1t is fitted with perfect locks, and when
the carrier drops mail into the box
h white flag Immediately comes up,
winch indicates that there is mail for
the people in the house. Dropping a
letter to be mailed into the box raises
the red flag, which is the signal to the
passing carrier. 1t is large enough for
the largest-sized letter, and has D
rate spaces for papers and packages.
1t is the intention of the postofice de-
partment to introduce the house-to-
house collection system as soon as pos
sible.

A Story of Twins.

Lloyd Lowndes and Richard Lown-
des, sons Of Governor Lowndes of
Maryland, are twins and look very
much alike. According to a story go
ing the rounds, Richard was travelling
through Ohio a year ago, when a man
came through the cars and slapped him
on the back. Hello, Lloyd" he said,
stop over and spend the night with
me at Chillicothe." Richard said he
wasn't Lloyd, but the man wouldn't
believe him, so he stopped over
Among the people he met was Miss
May. Quinn. She liked him and he
liked her, but Richard had been mar
ried for several years. So he told his
brother Lloyd about her, and in proc
ess of time Lloyd went to see her, fell
in love, proposed, and was married
last week. When he told his fiancee
that he was not the Lloyd she first
met, but that the first Lloyd was a
false. Lloyd and really Richard, he
had a hard time convincing her he
was speaking the truth.

ton OF photography to the study of

The west indies Hurricane.

The United States photographic Of
flee has tracked out the late destructive
West Indian hurricane. 1t was first en-
countered on August 8 at a point near
l~attitude'12 degrees north, further east
than, any tropical storm hitherto re-
ported to the photographic office. The
center of the storm reached Porto Rico
on the 8th, Hayti on the 9th, Bahamas
on the 18th, and Jupiter, Fla, on the
18th. 1t then continued parallel to the
United States coast, where hurricanes
were reported by vessels until the 18th.
When last reported, on the 21st, it was
near latitude 40 degrees north and lon
gitude 60 degrees west, much weakened
in character. The life of this hurricane
is stated to have been longer than any
hitherto reported to the photographic
Office.

There are four things essential to
the dogs well-being-nameiy, proper
housing, feeding, grooming and exer-
cls1ng. In all cases where it is possi-
Die, 1T is best that a dog spend a great
deal OF his life out of doors, especially
at night. Never allow dogs to sleep
near a register or fireplace. A dogs
food is, properly, porridge, bread and
milk, broth, table scraps, dog biscuits
and meat in moderation. Some green
vegetables and bones to gnaw-not to
break up and swallow-are, also part
or his diet. Never feed a dog at the
table and never-never give him con-
dictionary unless You wish to doom
him to an old age of obesity and indi-
gestlon. One OF, at most, two a day
are the number Of his meals, and reg
ula hours for feeding should be OBJ
served. These are general rules. The
dlherent breeds require. variation of
diet and their individual needs must
be studied. Grooming must be done
daily with the comb and brush. OF
which each breed has his proper kind,
and with the hand-a species of mas
sage, in fact. Olive oil and paraffin in
equal proportions are rubbed into the
SKIN to preserve the coat. Grooming
Is best done after exercise and before
feeding, but after each meal the dogs
race should be sponged, especially il
MS hair and ears are long. It is Il mis-
take to wash dogs too Otter. When
they are denied their rights Of rolling
on n grass or on the ground an oc-
cas1onal Tubing is necessary. Twice
a month is quite often enough. Small
dogs may stand in the tub, bur larger
ones usually prefer to stand on a BATH
mat. Holding the water jug in the
right hand and using the left hand to
soap with, begin to scrub the dog di-
rectly back of his skull. Wash both
sides of the body, along each leg and
down the tail. Do not get water in the
ears, as 1t is liable to cause canker.
Leave the head to the last. as he will
give himself a violent shake as the
water touches his head. Rinse in
plenty of lukewarm water and dry
with rubbing. Feed him Immediately
after his bath, encourage him to ex-
ercise a little and finally put him to
bed to rest.-Harper's Bazaar.

A Novel Voting Machine.

A novel voting machine was tested
the other day at the government print
Ing office in Rome. 1t is the work of
DR.. G. Trespioli, a well-known scient-
list, and his brother Faustus. A voter
goes to the polling booth and the off
c1al in charge cancels his name on the
register and puts in it's place a stamp
bearing the number of the ward, and
a progressive number, which he OBJ
ta1ns by consulting and setting the ma
l In operation. Until this number
is obtained the voter can do nothing,
for the machine would not act. When
he learns his number all he has to do
Is to step on the pedal of the machine
and press or the ticket bearing the
name of the candidate he prefers.
Then, after he has removed his foot
from the pedal, he sees under a plate
of glass his ticket go directly into the
ballot box, and thus his duty is done.
The machine is in the form of a box,
and it contains scrolls of cardboard on
Which are printed the m of the va
rious candidates. After each voter has
maue his selection a ticket is cut from
one of the scrolls, and passes into the
ballot box, which is constantly revolv-
ing. When the days work IS over the
ballot box is opened and the votes are
counted in the usual manner.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the.
diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness Isl caused by an

Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have a rumbLng sound or imperfect hear
ing. and when 1t is entirely closed deafness Is.
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be,

viii Make the Blind See.

Inc RUSSIAN electrician, Paul Stiens,
us now in London, exhibiting an inven-
ton by which he claims he can restore
sight to the blind, and even, to those
who were born blind. STEMS idea is
to supply a substitute for the lens of
the eye by the aid of electricity. I'm
mnedlately the apparatus is brought into
contact with the body of the individual
: operated upon," said he," as in the
camera, it focuses the rays of light
from the object to the brain, and sight
is given. Objects are clearly seen.
They are not inverted, but appear in
their proper form. My apparatus sim
ply constitutes a substitute for the len
OF the eye" Experiments seem to bear
out STEMS statements. He claims also
tha his invention will enable the deaf
TO hear perfectly. You know" he said,
that even though the drum or tym-
panic membrane is at fault, if the small
bones called the incus malleus and
stapes are present, a man is enabled to
hear by means of a plug which is put
In his right ear. In fact, such a plug
is called a false drum. Now, with the
aid of my apparatus, when the mem
brane and bones are at fault, hearing
is given by application of my apparatus
to the surface of the body. The body
is a good. conductor of the electric cur
rent, and when the apparatus is in use
a man wishing to talk to the leaf per-
son speaks into the apparatus. The
voice vibrations are carried through it
to the person spoken to, thence by his
nerves to the ~resonating chambers and
along the eustachian tubes to the aud
itory nerves, which convey the sound
to the center of hearing in the brain"
Asked what happened when the audi
tory nerve was at fault, Mr.. Stiens said
another nerve would gradually be edu-
Gated to take its place.

New Fire Escape Truck.

NO great Improvement in fire ladders

and ladder truck having retained it's
present character for many years. In
ANEW and apparently practicable pat

trucks the familiar ladder is replaced
by a telescoping extensible steel shaft
which is pneumatically extended, re-
'sembling when extended an elongated
pole with many sections. At the top
OF this steel column is a bracket arm
