Ga.olIne Enrlnr.

The use of gasoline engines to operate mining machinery has been discussed at a meeting of Ohio engineers. and in a very practical manner. Heretofore the use of the gas engine or machine which emitted a blaze has been considered dangerous in a mine. but 1t appears by the report of the committee on this oc- easion that application of the same to coal mining in certain cases has now been made. and successfully, SO much SO indeed as to promise a positive rival of steam, air and electricity in mining op- erations An illustration of the com parative advantage in this respect is seen. for example, in the case of fan pump Co be located one mile from the power plant There would be no con duct of steam to this point on account of the great condensation. With com pressed air the friction would be enor- nous. With electricity. while the loss by resistance and leakage would be comparatively small. constant watching of the motor would be necessary. Moth ing of this kind pertains to a gasoline engine for when once started it takes care of itself. using it's fuel in propor- tion to the load carried. about all the attention required being to start, stop and oil it. An external flame. this re. port says should never be used. espe' cially in a mine subject to gas. though . good electric igniter. in which the flame is confined in the interior of the cylinder. Is entirely safe. Chicago Record.

RAILROAD ATTACHMENT FOR BicYcLXS and engage the bicycle tire for the pur. pose of relieving the lower rollers Of undue strains The axes of these latter rollers are perpendieulAr to the periph- cry of the bicycle wheel.
 Beneath the rear wheel of the bicycle s somewhat similar arrangement is em- ployed. In this case the frame carries but a single roller and Is suspended in ro-s,iss Hy a sapporting braeo attached Co the bicycle frame and by bar run ming from the bearing of the rear wheel. As in the device used on the front wheel. SO here the roller engages the inner side of the rail and the adjacent portion of the wheel
 In order to keep the bicycle in post. tion on its track a lateral frame is fas- tened Co the lower brace and is provided at it's outer end with a fanged wheel running upon tho rail opposite that upon which the bicycle Is mounted. The fiange of this wheel is opposed to the hange devices on the bicycle SO as to keep the latter in position on the track
 The attachment in itself is lightly constructed It can be removed from s bicycle and easily applied, and, more over. can be packed in a case carried on the bicycle A rider is thus enabled to use his wheel not only on ordinary roads. but also on railway tracks, Scientific American.

r.mp.rntur. and Crime.

The novel argument Is made in one of the technical journals that If mur. derous deeds are done in "cold blood" the proper time for such acts should be between II clock at night and 1 o'clock in the morning. this being the interval when the temperature of the human body falls to it's minimum-that is. healthy beings 1t is assumed. go through Aregular daily cycle of variable warmth. The maximum heat is reached At 9 o'clock in the morning. when in per sons under 25 years the temperature stands at 99 degrees F.. this being maintained until 6 o'clock following. when it slowly and steadily falls till an hour before midnight. the decrease by this time amounting to something over two degrees-then. at about 8 o'clock in the morning. the upward turn Is taken and the heat increases till Q o'clock. The point Is made. however, that tbis extent of change occurs only in young bodies old people preserving q nearly equal degree of warmth through all the 24 hourA

They Help On. Another.

A singular custom prevails among the Tartars or Kurds. If man gets in
 Co dificulties-that Is, loses his cattle or other movable proPerty-he pours little brown sugar into a piece of col ored cloth. ties it up and carries one such parcel to each of his friends and Acquaintances. In return he is present sd, according to circumstances with a SOW or sheep or a sum of money. He is thus at once set on his legs again. The same method is adopted when young man wishes to marry, but is not in position to satisfy the parents of his intended bride in the matter of the "bashlyg is, marriage dover.

cycles on RallroadA
 The invention which forms the sub feet of the accompanying engraving seeks to provide a simple attachment by which an ordinary bicycle can be used upon a railroad track. the bicycle run ning upon one rail means being provid- cd whereby it Is held in position.
 Below the front wheel of the bicycle q frame is suspended from a forked braee fastened to the bicycle frame and from a bar running from the axis of the front wheel. On the lower portion of this suspended frame rollers arc jour. naled to engage the track and the adja- cent portion of the tire. At the rear of the wheel, about midway of its height two additional rollers are journaled in the forked brace already mentioned.
