New Automatic Gun.

William Startling Burgess, junior nt Harvard. has invented an automatic rapid firing gun which has met with the approval of Commander Richard Wainwright of Gloucester fame and of Commander Seaton Schroeder, him. self the inventor of the Drlggs-Schroe- der gun. Mir. Burgess Is the son of the designer of the Puritan and the May flower. His gun Is of the Maxim class which operates by recoil, whereby the shell Is extracted and the new car fridge put In position. but his inven- ton does away with the aid of a drum or other device at the muzzle and with cyclinders of any kind. 1t differs from its fellows in that the entire energy of the recoil Is absorbed by the compress sion of single spiral spring. All bar rel pressure is absent. and another scheme prevents tanning. The escape of gas Is assured. and shell rupture seems to be practically impossible. Finally. the gun will fire 300 shots a minute. Young Burgess Is only 21, but saw actual service in the Spanish war and took part in the engagement with Alfonso XIII at MarieL-Philadelphi rrIroao

ing to the Chicago Record. A large hopper above the door of the firebox re ceives the dust. which Is put up in bags 70 pounds to the bag. From this hop per the powdered coal is jared down by an automatic shaker to revolving brush with steel bristles. At the same time currents of air are admitted at one side and the top of the brush. Re volvins several hundred times min- ute. thls brush throws the particles of coal Into the fircbox, where they are h. stantly in a state of combustion. Damp CTS for tue further admission of air are placed below the brush.
 These appliances were placed on ex-
 tn boilers, the only change necessary being the construction of a front facing of brick about two feet deep.
 Further tests were made recently, when the other four boilers in the power house. which are hand fired, were shut off. and the two boilers hay ing the new devices were used to op- crate the entire plant. Bags of dust were poured into the hopper as re- quired, and the fire got no other atten- ton during the two hours test except an occasional adjustment of the damp CTS aud the feeders. Illinois coal, quoted at $1.40 per ten, was the fuel, and the officials declared that, so far as they could see. 1t was doing the
 work as well as the better grades for
 merly used The coal Is dumped Into circular pit. where six hammers, each l,l Yr.In ntrtn the mass until 1t is fine enough to drop through meshes at the bottom of the pit.
 It was claimed that the adoption of
 this arrangement by the city would give an easy solution of the garbage problem, as the intense heat would in- stantly consume the rubbish. Experi-
 ments are being pushed to demonstrate | whether the system Is suitable for use | on the roads locomotives. Tests will
 be made of the apparatus In several of the large smelling works within | the next month.
 John F. Wallace, second assistant vice president of the Illinois Central | railroad, declared that the officials of | the company were satisfied that the | principle of the new invention was cor
 rect and that they expected to demon I strate that there was a saving of from
 9 to 40 per cent on the same quality
 of coal. Mir. Wallace said that within
 the next month he would begin expert ments, using the front end cinders and
 the clinkers from the grates as fuel
 after grinding them.

But after awhile the wind blew all night from the east, and the waters were gathered into a glittering palisade on either side, and the pillows roared as God pulled back on their crystal bits. Wheel into line, O Israel! March, march! Pearls crashed under feet, flying spray gath ers into rainbow arch of victory for the conuuerors to march under, shout of hosts on the beach answering the shout of hosts amid sea. and when the last line of the Israelites reach the beach the cymbals clap. and the shields | clang, and the waters rush over the pursuers, and the swift fingered winds on the white keys of the foam play the grand march of Israel delivered and | the awful dirge of Egyptian overthrow. So you and go forth, and all the people of God go forth. and they stretch | their hand over the sea, the boiling sea | of crime aud sin and wretchedness. "li

 be cleared for the army of Christian | philanthronists. The path will be lined | with the treasure of Christian benefi | cence, and we will be greeted to the | other beach by the clapping of all heay en's cymbals, while those who pursued us and derided us and tried to destroy us will go down under the sea, and al | that will be left of them will be cast

 from the foam, the breathless nostril oi l riderless charger.

Electric EurnnceH.

In a paper read before the Paris cleo. trical congress Mir. Kellar gave good general classification of the electric furnaces employed at the present time There are three classes-arc furnaces resistance furnaces and incandescent furnaces. In the first class the heat Is generated by yoltaic arc. In the re. sistance type the heat Is furnished by the passage of the current through iUh. perfectly conducting material, and In the incandescent furnace the material to be acted on Is not initially conduct. i've, and q special conducting layer Is required to start the current. The temperatures obtained in the electric furnace are said to be In excess of 5000 degrees c. and are the highest yet attained artificially-New York Times
