TO HARNESS CYCLONES.
'lan to Utilize the Zephyrs Which
Blow Across the Prairies.

Blow Across the Prairies.
Professor b. b. Britts Of Richland
Center, Wis, has arrived in Omaha
with a mysterious machine which he
says will take power from the wind
and store It in such a manner that 1t
may be used at will. He maintains
that he can bride slight breeze or
cyclone and convert its power to the
use Of man.
Omaha capitalists have been asked
to invest in plant for the manufac-
ture of Britts' strange machine. The
inventor guards his secret with great
care, but says that he will be in posi-
ton to make public demonstration of
the cyclone Harvesting machine in
short time. He maintains that patents
are pending and hopes to have his
rights so fully protected that his inven-
ton may be put into common use be-
more the opening of next year.
When asked if his plan was superior
to the scheme of utilizing the suns
rays in generating power, Britts said
that he has spent much time in investi-
eating the plants constructed in Cali
fornia for the utiliza tion Of the suns
rays and that he is confident that his
machine is far superior to anything of
the sort ever tried
"In this western country there Is
never time" said Inventor Britts,
"when there is not sufficient wind to
make it possible for my device to &C.
quire power. 1t is different from a
windmill and is SO carefully construct
ed that It may be operated with the
slightest breeze. My invention will do
away with all other methods of gener-
ating power. 1t is applicable to locomo-
tives and will displace electricity and
compressed air in propelling street
cars. 1t will also be valuable for navi-
cation purposes and will make coaling
stations and steam power a thing Of
history"

on? But you will say with n sneer
that we all smoke opium, and that an
opium smoker, of course, will not
drink because the pipe gives one an
aversion TO alcohol. 1t is true that
the opium smoker can't drink, but il
is not true that all Cinnamon smoke.
For no one can smoke and work, and
IL is only the loafers Of Chinatown,
the card sharps and confidence men
who hit the pipe. The true reason of
Chinese temperance in this country
Is one Of economy. We can't afford
to drink. To get drunk, To be arrested
and to be fined, and, therefore, as a
race, would like to be just as intern
perate as any other people, only they
control themselves. - Philadelphia
