WILL NOT AFFECT BAY RUM.

''The acquisition of the Danish West Indies," said Henry Nicholson. an i'm porter of bay rum, will neither raise nor lower the price of bay rum. Most of the bay rum used in this country comes from St. Thomas island. and the removal of the tariff that now ex7 ists would mean the collection of in ternal revenue. The internal revenue rate on bay rum is equally as high as the present tariff from St. Thom9 g island. so that from our standpoint there would be nothing to gain from the acquisition of those islands. - Pittsburg Dispatch.

A NOVEL STEAM ENGINE.
An Iowa Invention Which EIini-
mates the Use of a Boiler.


A unique idea has been worked out by a
Des Moines Qowa) inventor whereby the
boiler of a steam engine is practically
avoided. The general principle of the en-
gine is this: That while in the ordinary
engine but a small quantity of steam is
being used at any one time, yet a great
quantity of fuel is necessary in order to
keep a large volume of water continually
boiling to provide the necessary steam. In
the present instance there is no boiler
proper, there being substituted therefor a
small quantity Of water in the lower end
of what might be called the steam chest
proper. though here called boiler.
Operating in this boiler is long. hollow
piston, lacking about one-thirty-Second OF
an inch of fitting to the sides of the boiler,
thus leaving room for steam cushion
all the way around it, and also making it
possible for the condensed steam 10 run
down the sides. a rod connected with
this piston passes up through the centre
of another piston, which operates in
vacuum cylinder above the boiler and is
geared direct to the fly wheel
The upper piston above referred to tts
absolutely air-tight in the vacuum CYL
inder, and is gesred to the shaft in the
usual crank manner. As the steam pis-
ton is forced up, it forces the upper pls-
ton up, leaving a vacuum, which draws 1t
back again, thus giving. in addition to the
steam power of from forty-fiye 10 sixty
pounds pressure, the additional fifteen
pounds pressure of the atmosphere in the
vacuum.
One of the greatest advantages claimed
is that. in view of the fact that two pis-
tons are connected direct to the machtn-
cry. and there being great difference in
the length of their stroke, il dispenses en-
tireIy with the dead centre principle OF
all other engines, as one OF the pistons
always begins doing business before the
other one ceases.
Surrounding the vacuum cylinder IS
Jacket containing water, which prevents
the heat from the friction of the air-tsht
piston from expanding the metal and
wasting any power. 1t also operates to
keep the upper end of the boiler cool. and
assists in the condensation of the steam.

There is absolutely no exhaust or es-

EVANS TO BE SACRIFICED.
The Alleged Pledge to Win the Sol
dier Vote.

The Republican National Committee,
according to a statement made yesterday
by Corporal Tanner, formerly Commits
sioner of Pensions. made a promise to
have Commissioner II. Clay Evans re-
moved from office in the event of the
success of the Republican national ticket.
The old soldiers are now demanding that
that promise be kept, and that a new
Commissioner be appointed in place of
Mr.. Evans. At the recent encampments
held in New York. Nebraska, Missouri,
and ether States, the veterans have
passed resolutions. il is said. and for
warded them to the President, asking
for Mr.. Evans removal
The matter is said to be still unsettled,
and the opinion prevails that Mr.. Evans
will be allowed to retain his Office until
some other equally good position is found
to which the President can appoint him.
Notwithstanding the opposition of the
soldiers and the factional fight against
the Commissioner in his own State. Mr..
Evans has a large number of friends and
they are confident that he will be prop
erly cared for by the President, and that
he will not be removed arbitrarily from
office. Mr.. Mckinley has a very high
regard for Commissioner Evans, and, it
is said, will stand by him.
James l.. Davenport, at present Deputy
Commissioner of Pensions, has announced
himself as a candidate for Commissioner.
and his name has been presented to the
New Hampshire, of which State Mr..
Davenport is citizen. 1t is understood,
however. that Mr.. Davenport's candidacy
is not in any way inimical to Mr. Evans,

THE REASONING OF A DOG.
An Incident Showing Canine In
stincts of Logic.

In August, 1914. l was a boy of fifteen,
working with my father on the farm in
northern Illinois. One afternoon he had
Just climbed on a load of straw he had
been pitching up TO me. when 1 heard a
rattlesnake on the ground nearby. After
looking about few minutes, We discern
ed him in the stubble about twenty feet
away, Just coiIing ready for defence or
attack In those early days 1t was con
sidered almost a religious duty to des-
patch every venomous creature of that
kind, so plentiful were they on the prai-
ries. 1 was about to get down from the
load for that purpose when l thought of
the little dog Penny. He was slender
little fellow of the proverbial ''yaller dog
species, but had a great reputation as
snake killer. So 1 whistled for Penny.
who came running in cheerful response
from the house.
Being directed and h.ssed on he soon
discovered the snake. still darting out his
tongue and giving forth warning with his
tail. We had a fine view from the load
Penny approached cautiously, first on
this side, then on that till he had gone
round the snake several times, always
finding him ready for a fatal blow in any
direction. Suddenly he stopped still and
turned his head to one side in serious
contemplation. think if he had had
finger he would have scratched his head
Just back of his right ear in search of an
idea. After a few moments reflection his
plan seemed formed. He stepped back
step or two. made a bound forward to-
ward the snake and snapped at it with
his teeth, coming very close TO 1t, but not
touching it; then bounded back as quick
as a fash The snake struck out his full
length. and very fiercely, but he was not
quick enough Penny had lodged him.
The snake, of course was now straight
ened out; and the dog, springing so quick
you could hardly see him, caught II III
the middle of the body and, giving 1t one
quick violent shake, dropped II on the
ground completely stunned so that ii was
only a moments work to seize it again
and shake il into many pieces.
Since then | have had great respect for
dog logic and a much higher regard for
Penny's Intelligence II is very evident
he drew the conclusion. after careful eX-
animation, that 1t was impossible TO seize
the snake without receiving the poisonous
blow Then he reasoned, IF l can get
him Strengthened out, l can safely tackle
him Again, If ] jump at him-not too
close-I can dodge him when he strikes,
and he will be Strengthened by the act

TROUBLES OF A sPoTTER.

the Ferry Fares.

There IS a mild hammered young man
at work In the big Jersey City station and
ferry terminal who thinks he has the
hardest Job in the United States. He is

such a position. He is not hired to spot"
dishonest employees. however, so does not
suffer the additional penalty of the enmity
of other railroad men, His duty is to see
that people who cross the North River
to meet friends on incoming trains pay a
return fare to get back to the city. He
catches several hundred every day, and
earns his salary many times over.

THE OLD MISSISSIPPI.
Wonders Associated with the Great
American stream.

81 have been very much impressed with
the importance of small things in late
years" said an old steamboat man. and
the Mississippi River has furnished me
some rather good examples. ! can under
stand now why Caesar looked out upon
the Nile in such curious amazement and
offered all that he stood for to the Egyp-
tian priest if he would show him the source
of that wonderful river. But the antics of
the Nile look like insignificant nothings
to me when compared with the strange
conduct of the stream that ooZes out or
the earth at Itasca and hurries on its
murky and devious way towards the Gulf
OF Mexico. Towns along the Mississippi
that stood right on the bank OF the river
have been isolated even in my day, and
there are too, all along the course of the
stream little empires in view where the
river has encroached upon small centres
of population, finally eating the earth
away and forcing the inhabitants to seek
other quarters. There are hundreds Of
these places that are almost forgotten
now even by the men who are constantly
on the river.
what brings about these violent
changes along the banks of the river?
Not foods. IT is just the ordinary doings
of the stream. In the first place the
current of the Mississippi is wonderfully
swift and the sediment deposited at any
point where resistance to the flow Is Of

damned at that point. Experts have ad-
mitted this This brings me to the point
of my narrative.
