SEA GIRT, N. j., July IS, 1901.
The encampment Of the 1st Regiment of
the National Guard has had more than an
enlivening effect upon the fortunes Of this
pretty resort this week. Not only have
Gov. Voorhees, and his staff attracted
large following of friends and politicians,
but the military features have also drawn
many sightseers from the neighboring re-
sorts. The result Is that Sea Girt is crowd
ed from early morning until after dress
parade in the evening. Visitors are more
than rewarded this year, for the big pa
rade ground and It's envirQns have never
before presented such a striking appear
ance. This is due largely to the new
tents that are used. In place of the small.
squatty wedge tents, the state has pro-
vided large circular wall tents capable Of
sheltering from eight to twelve men each.
Their peculiar construction necessitates a
widening OF the company streets, which has
given more room for everybody, fine i'm
provement over the old style Of camp for
nation in vogue here The troopers are
that the small ones, which were taken
away during the war, will never be brought
back.
Gov Voorhees, has been in attendance
regularly, excepting on Tuesday when he
went to Trenton for his regular reception.
The governor will be here at intervals dur
ing the entire season until the close of the
international rifle shoot at the end of the
first week in September. The National
Guard encampment will not be closed with
the departure Of the 4th Regiment week
from today, for 1t is proposed to send COM
panies down from the other regiments for
rifle practice and special camp work There
will. therefore, be something Of Importance
going on each week until the end Of sum-
mer. There is talk, too Of reviving the
military BAH. which for years was the
great social feature Of the summer on this
coast, drawing prominent families from
every section of the state. If it is re-
vived 1t will be given some time in Au-
gust at the Beach House.
The Beach House is having one of the
best seasons in its history MANY of the
officers have stationed their wives and
families here for the summer.

that that city must be looked upon as
the center Of the wind wheel trade.
(Perhaps this fact has in some meas
ure contributed toward the establish
ment on a permanent basis of the ap-
pellation Windy City" as applied to
Chicago.)
The use of the wind machine as a
motor is, however, still in its infancy.
There can be little doubt that the wind
will become the prime motive power
of the future, not only for all kinds
Of work to be done in rural districts,
but also in the cities for such work
as requires but a moderate expendi-
ture of power.
Work which does not require any
definite time for it's accomplishment,
such as wood-sawing, pumping wa
ter, grinding grain and cutting feed,
is now accomplished by the wind
wheel, and it only needs the invention
of some convenient means of storing
up the energy of the wind, so that the
power derived from it may be avail
able at any time, to make it a univer-
sal labor-saver. 1t is most probable
that the conserving of wind power will
take place through the use of storage
batteries, and it's transmission will oc-
cur electrically. The use of wind pow
err in COMPRISING air and storing the
latter for future use also offers great
possibilities. The simplest way to Sc
cure this power will be to mount small
wind wheels above the roofs of houses,
each house with a wheel of a size suf-
f1cient to meet it's needs. 1t would
indeed at first be a strange sight to
see thousands of whirligig wheels on
the roofs of a city, but after the nov
city has worn away we should not
mind them any more than we do the
rows of chimneys which exist at the
present time.

Second-To construct the machine of
such dimensions and place it in such
a position that it will produce the de-
sired power. In order to do this it is
necessary to know how much wind
actually exists in different localities,
and also how much power is developed
by winds of different velocities.
There are two ways of stating the
strength of the wind. We can either
say the wind presses on a surface with
a force of so many pounds per square
foot of surface; or we can say that the
wind blows a certain number of miles
per hour; that is, the air is moving so
many miles an hour. The wind force
or wind pressure varies with this wind
velocity.

USE OF WIND
WHEELSsasaso

Wind wheels have been in use for
a thousand years. The ponderous and
unwieldy old-world wind wheel has
given place to the compact snug wheel
Of Yankee manufacture, just as the
old-time water wheel has been dis
placed by the turbine. The old-fash-
toned wind wheel, like it's contem-
porary paddle or bucket water wheel,
had to be built where it was to be
used; while the new wind wheels, like
the turbines, can be readily trans
ported to any desired location. 1t is
undoubtedly the hardness of the
American wind wheel which has so
strongly recommended the machine to
the agricultural class, for it is that
class which ait present is it's chief user.
1T will not be far out of the way to
estimate the number of wheels in the
United States at upward of 600, 900.
These wheels are, however, In the
main so small and u~nobtrusive, and
we have become so accustomed to see
ing them that they are hardly noticed
unless displayed in unusually eonspic-
uous places.
There have been about one hundred
firms engaged in the manufacture of
wind wheels in the United States, and
two-thirds of these have been located
within a short distance Of Chicago, so

BRIDE AND BRIDESMAIDS.

Among the newest fancies for brides
maids flowers are bows and arrows,
the bows made of button roses or
lilies, the arrows or orchids or any
contrasting flower.
Sabots full of blooms hanging from
the arm, and stats with bouquets on
the top, are dainty. Muffs of flowers,
or rather of chiffon, with bouquets on
the top made to represent butterflies
are original and charming, and so are
small canoes laden with flowers, which
have only one drawback, that they are
troublesome to carry.
Fans and parasols are considered in
specially good taste as gifts from a
bride to her attendants. The fans may
be used If the day is warm and may
be chosen to make pretty color o
trasts to the dresses.
Parasols to match or to contrast
with the bridesmaids hats and gowns
are effective for a wedding out of
town, where the bridal party usually
goes out of doors after the ceremony.
The pretty sunshades Of the brides
maids are then more decorative, as
well as more useful. than unwieldly
even if beautiful bouquets.

The inland winds are, much stronger
on the great plains than In any other
section. In Kansas and Nebraska the
winds are nearly twice as strong as in
the Ohio& River valley. These veloci-
ties refer to the winds as experienced
on the tops of houses in a city, or
twenty-five feet above the ground in
unsheltered positions in open fields.
All, countries are not as we'll situ-
ated as the United States for obtain
ing wind power. In general the re-
gions between the ATTITUDES 80 deg.
and IS deg. present the most desirable.

ON Ski.

In Norway the ski is in constant use
during the winter, and the ease with
which great distances can be covered
is surprising. Peasants are thus able
to get about their work and visit
friends in far-away districts. Sports
men, with gun on back and stick in
hand, set out in pursuit of game on
ski, and the soldiers are reduced to
this means of getting about when ex-
ercising. A regiment of soldiers on ski
is a sight by no e uncommon in
and around Christiania.-The Traveller.

A Handy Power
That Costs But
Littles& *

There iS no reason to doubt that in
the course of time there will be erect
ed great machines which shall collect
the wind power in such quantities as
will allow it's transmission from CEN
trail power houses, as at present accom-
plished by other sources of energy. Or
wheels may be set up at regular inter
walls and each be expected to contrib
ute power enough to operate a plant
within a certain precinct.
We can very readily calculate just
what wind power is available over
any chosen area and within the limits
of any designated height. The diff
ficulties to be- encountered and yer
come in making use of this energy are
purely mechanical ones. Two prob
lens come up for solution:
First-T0 construct a machine which
will transmit the energy of the NOV
ing air with least loss of power. The
ingenuity Of the American inventor has
been fully exercised in the addition OF
such improvements to wind wheels as
shall reduce to the minimum the loss
If power in their operation. Notwith-
standing these efforts, there is still
much room for improvement, for it il
conceded that even with the best
wheels, a large percentage Of ths
available power is lost.

The Shoenosraph..

Last week they put up some,
new machines in the shoe shop
One of them caught my fancy. and
1 was set to running it. It is
called shoenograph. It will eat
leather by the ton, taking in the
skin of kid or the hide of bulb
with equal ease. When properly
handled it will turn out $4,000
pairs of shoes day. You feed it
at one end and the finished shoes
drop out at the other; shoes for
the ladies, shoes for the babies,
and even brogans. 1 liked my
new job, but alas! I have lost it..
This is the way it happened:
[ worked hard all day to keep
the machine full of hides, but to-
wards evening, in fit Of absent
mindedness, I put two bull hides
into the machine instead of one.
and consequently two pairs of large
programs dropped out. One pair
was size 139 and the other IA. Just
then Mr.. Connolly came along. He
stopped, looked at the shoes and
then at me, saying:
young man, you go way, way
back and sit down. Try your old
job again for change. You have
spoiled two vici kid skins, and we
will never be able to find GUS
toner with feet large enough to
fill those shoes. I have a notion,
to send you to the deputy about,

There is one big bull moose in

party will make every effort to run
down. This animal charged a
young doctor last fall, thereby
winning the luminosity of all the
professional men in the state-who
consider charging sacred per-
siquite of their own.
According to DIR. Burton, the
little band of hunters that start
after the big bull moose this week
are prepared to track the creature
to his lair and force him to bite
the dust with hypodermic syringe
and Roentgen rays if the bullets
fly wide.

The Disposition About every known

representative among the inmates
of this institution. There are ex-
perienced men of all trades and
professions, and if cooperative
commonwealth were started, it
could be peopled and put in run
ming order without going beyond
the walls for inhabitants.
Of course, however, very few of
the inmates are employed at the
work they were trained in. It
would not be possible to do that.
The shoe company just now makes
use of more men than any other
industry within the walls, working
about 298 prisoners in it's various
departments. The Irvine factory
comes next with 81 men.

before he himself sinks to the,

It is a law of nature that one

Action of The Eight men applied
Board of Control. for parole at the
meeting of the Board of Control
last Thursday, and six had their
application granted.
The board has recently awarded
a contract to Messrs. W.B. and W.
G. Jordan extending the time of
the contract for making shoes for
three years.
By this contract the shoe COM
pany is to be provided with at
least $50 prison laborers. At
present there are 286 such men at
work. There is no rush now in
making binder Irvine and it being
a rushing time for the shoe shop
the opportunity of securing a large
number of convict laborers is being
taken advantage of.
It is also the purpose of the CON-
pany to use a considerable number
of skilled wofkmen secured from
the outside, and as their trade is
growing rapidly it may be neces-
sary to draw upon outside help to
a large extent. Convict labor
however will be used where the
men can be secured.
The Jordans have also been
awarded the contract by the Board
of Control to furnish shoes for all
the state institutions of a penal
and charitable kind. This contract
will last three months.
