New York, Nov. 6.-Gen. Butler, says
the London correspondent of the Tri-
bune considers himself the victim of
South African conspiracy and threatens
to unmask his assailants. Unlike Gen.
Roberts who rallied the political as well
as the military forces in South Africa
and did not make an enemy except
when compelled to criticise subordinate
generals and officers, Gen. Butler lack
ed fiexibility in dealing with men and
excited much opposition. AT West
minister. Buffers friends now assert
that he will vindicate his reputation by
exposing the Vaccinations of the con-
spirators who have been traducing him
and telling the secret history of the
Jameson raid and other operations The
war office will probably anticipate a
parliamentary discussion by publishing
the exact text Of the message hello
graphed after Colenso. 1t can hardly
fail to do this when two contradictory
versions are already before the public.
The army is the only branch of the
government service in which the con-
fidential character of official documents
is not respected.

In distress, 1 was advised to try PERU

Peruna a Preventative and Cure for Colds.

President of 1.-THE Past-time Boating
Club, writes:
Whenever the cold weather sets in
have for years past been very sure TO
catch a severe cold which was hard to
throw off, and which would leave after
effects on my constitution the most of
the winter.
Last winter I was advised to try
Peruna, and within five days the cold
was broken up and in five days more L
was a well man. I recommended it to
several of my friends and all speak the
highest praise for it. There is nothing
like Peruna for Catarrhal Affections,
it is well nigh infallibIe as a cure, and
! gladly endorse TIC. r. Given.
Gave New Life and Strength.
Mr. Edward Laws, Crown Point, Ind,
writes the following:
'I must tell you what a grand help
Peruna has been to me. For over two
years 1 suffered with catarrh of the
lungs and throat, and although 1 doc
tored for it, nothing brought me relief
until I tried Peruna- One bottle helped
me greatly, and three more effected
complete cure while at the same time
it gave such new life and strength to
my whole body that feel like a new
man and ten years younger.
ct hope that my testimonial may in
duce others who are similarity afflicted
to try Peruna-"-Edward Laws.

allow the vane to swing through the
whole circle, and in another stop the
vane on coming into the wind. The
size and power of these motors are linn
tied only by the length of arms and
axis and the area of the vanes, which
will depend, in turn, upon the use to
which it is to be put and the pocket
book of the owner.
The power will be considerable with
very little expense, as an arm of 10
feet in length will support a vane of 10
feet square-that is to say, surface Of

enough to reach above wind obStruc-

striking the back of the vane, causes
it to unfold and swing freely in the
wind till it completes a revolution.
Two OF the four vanes are thus always
under wind pressure and two drawing
into position.
The principal expense in a motor of
this form is the cost of the canvas, if
that material should be used, while if
old lumber be substituted it could be
constructed perhaps more cheaply than
the Go Devil. This is the simplest
form of the device and could only be
stopped by means of brake and after
ward backing until all the vanes are
free from pressure ON the arms. 1t

notifications of this motor, varying in
the manner of hinging the vanes, as
also in adapting it to be thrown out of

the vanes swinging directly from the
arms and held against the wind by
ropes. This form would revolve only
one way, according as the restraining
cords are connected and could be
thrown out of gear by having the ropes
run over pulleys and slackening them
as required. In Fig. 8 the vanes swing
between parallel arms, being held
against the wind pressure by a movable

WHY THE BOILER BURSTS.

Scientific Explanation of Some Phe-
nomena of the Kitchen.
When you hear the kitchen boiler
cracking there is no cause for alarm.
There is a prevailing impression that
the cracking IS produced by steam and
that there is, therefore, an increased
pressure on the boiler at such times.
But this is an error. If the boiler is i'm
good condition. with the water turned
on rs usual 50 that the boiler is kept
filled. the only pressure that it is sub
icctcd TO is the same as that in the
water pipes. from which. of course.
there never is the slightest danger.
And this is true, no matter how hot
the water in the boiler may be.
The reason is very simple. As long
rs the boiler is kept full of water there
Is no room for steam. If YOU open the
hot-water cock the water pOurS out and
steam rises from il because it then has
Il chance TO escape into the air In
other words, rapid evaporation takes
places. But rs the hot water pours out
water from the pipes rushes in to take
its place, and thus the boiler is kept
fun.
The cracking noise referred TO is
heard when the water is usually hot
and is nothing hut the expansion of
the boiler under the influence of that
heat. 1t IS in no degree an indication
of danger, unless. indeed. the boiler is
worn out or defective. which is Il mat
ter entirely outside of what we are now
considering.
When Il kitchen boiler explou<S ii is
generally because 4 fire has been. kin
died in the range while the boiler was
empty. Ii happens sometimes when
when people come back To town after
spending the summer away. The fire
heats the boiler. of course. and when
the water is turned on it is converted
suddenly and violently into steam. and
the boiler cannot stand the enormous
pressure. Fortunately, few persons
are thoughJleSS enough or silly enough
10 build fire before opening the cocks
connecting the boiler with the water
pipes.
