Census Record for the Past
Ten Years Shows That
Watts Motive Power Still
Reigns Supreme.
Use of Electricity for Light
ing and Transit Has In
creased Enormously-Sky
Serapers and Their Needs.

The motive power used in the manu-
featuring establishments OF the United
States in 1900 aggregated 11,3o0.oSl
horse power. as compared with 1854. 655
horse power in 1890; S,41o, s37 horse power
in 1880. and 2,246,142 horse power in 1870.
"A recent report issued by the Census
Bureau shows that the increase from
1890 to 1900 was 5,345, 426 horse power, or
ss.s per cent; from 1880 to 1890 2,543. sis
horse power, or 74.6 per cent; and from
1870 to 1880, 1864, 695 horse power. or 40 4
per cent.
Total Power Used.
OF the total power used in the manu-
features in the census year. steam en-
gines furnished ZAP. 416 horse power. or
about TIA per cent Of the aggregate;
water wheels supplied 1,727.25s horse
COVER. or Is per cent: eleetric motors.
S11 DIG horse power, or 81 per cent; gas
and gasolene engines. 143,S5o horse
power, or 1.3 per cent, ard other forms
of mechanical power. 54,4eo horse power.
or fve-tenths of / per cent. Rented
power was used to the extent of 321 .051
horse power, or rs per cent OF the total.
OF this 1S3, 6S2 horse power was electric.
and 137. $50 was from other sources OF
Energy.
The statistics in the report relate only
to manufacturing operations and do not
include any portion Of the vast amount
Of power used yearly for other purposes.
The report says the rapidly increasing
application of power to other industrial
uses than manufacturing. steadily re-
duces the ratio of power used for mills
and factories to the total applied to all
uses, and that it is no longer safe to
take the power employed in manufactur
ing as basis upon which to make the
calculations concerning the aggregate
power OF the country.

in any considerable quantity was limited

JOHNSON THOUGHT NOT

Disbelieved.

NEW YORK. Oct 3O.-William G
johnson. the young man who walked
into the Greenpoint police station late
Wednesday night and announced that he
was the man who killed Albert C. Lati-
mer. on July 2 last, appears to be a
romancer of tx, first water '@-~
He was examined at length by num-
Der of police officials in Brooklyn today
and the opinion was expressed that he
was a liar. though try as they would
the police could not unearth the motive
of his remarkable story. 1t is not be-
lieved that he Is a crank, as he talks
well and sticks closely to his story de-
spite the efforts made to break him
down.
Sometimes tramps confess to crimes
which have not been solved and which
are occupying public attention in order
to pass few weeks of winter weather
in nice, warm Jail, where three regu-
lar meals day are served. Johnson,
however, does not appear to be that
sort of man.

EMERSON DEFEATED
BY TANG[ENOOD CLUB
Score of 5 to 0 Tells Story
of Hard Scrimmage.

The Ianglewcod Athletic Club foot
ball eleven defeated the gridiron war
riors frcm Emerson Institute. on Van
Ness Park yesterday, by score of to
0. The Tanglewoods failed to score in
the first halt, but Bayly carried the
leather over the line near the end of
the second. Hughes failed to kick goal.
The Emersons played we'll on the
aggressive, but they were never able to
make more than three or four yards,
and at no time did the sTanglewoods
fail to hold them for downs. The de-
fensive work Of the institute laos was
particularly good.
Hughes, Brewer and Alexander, the
backs of the Tanglewood eleven. played
exceptionally well, and on the close
formation plays made gains ranging
from ten to forty yards. Brewer con-
tributed the greatest number of gains
but those made by Alexander and
Hughes were longer. Prospect, at right
end, worked a clever delayed pass
that puzzled the Emersons and allowed
him to cover thirty yards before being
downed. Caliow and Doran did excel
lent work on the line, and held their
opponents in commendable fashion.
Nc Scoring in First Half.
Emerson kicked off to Tanglewood,
and the ball was returned thirty yards.
Tanglewood tried the close formation
md ind
to be a good ground gamer. Alexander
was sent around left end for fifteen
yards. and Brewer skirted right tackle
for ten. Hughes plowed through center
FOR eight yards, and the ball was near
Emerson's 15-yard line, when it was
fumbled. Emerson got the ball, and
Bruce Magruder went through center for
four yards. He was tried on an end
run, but failed to make good. Right end
was tried, but no gain was made, and
Tanglewood go, the ball. Time expired
without scoring.
Tanglewood kicked to Emerson at the
beginning of the second half. and Ma
gruder brought the ball back ten yards
Several assaults were made on Tangle-
woods center, but IL was strong, and
no gains resulted. Magruder and Orme
made short gains through tackle, but
Tanglewood got the ball on downs near
the center of the field and proceeded TO
rush # right up to the goal line.
Alexander was tried around left end
on close formation and made fifteen
yards. Brewer was sent around rsght
end for fifteen on the same formation,
and Hughes through the line for eight
yards.
The Tanglewoods used two plays al
most exclusively. The close formation
and the tandem plays When Tangle-
wood placed the ball on the 5-yard line
Emerson took decided brace and
threatened to hold them for downs.
Alexander made two Yards, and Brewer
placed the bah on the 1yard line

gested.
Nearly everyone will admit that as q
nation we eat too much meat and toe
little of vegetables and the grains.
| For business men. office men and
clerks, and in fact everyone engaged in
sedentary or indoor occupations, grains,
milk and vegetables are much more
| healthful.
Only men engaged in severe outdoor
manual labor can live on heavy meat
diet and continue in health.
AS general rule, meat once day is
sufficient for all classes of men, women
and children. and grains. fruit and veg
etables should constitute the bulk of
food eaten.
But many OF the most nutritious foods
are difficult of digestion and 1t is of no
use to advise brain workers to eat large
ly of grains and vegetables where the
digestion is too weak to assimilate them
properly.
1t is always best to get the best re-
suits from our food that some simple
and harmless digestive should be taken
after meals to assist the relaxed diges-
tive organs. and several years expert
ence have proven STARTS Dyspepsia
Tablets to be very safe. pleasant and
effective digestive and a remedy which
may be taken daily with the best re-
suits.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can hardly
be called a patent medicine as they do
not act on the bowels nor any paTticu-
lar organ but only on the food eaten.
They supply what weak stomachs lack.
pepsin diastase and by stimulating the
gastric glands increase the natural Sc
erection of hydrochloric acid.
People who make a daily practice of
taking one or two. of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets after each meal are sure to
have perfect digestion, which means per-
feet health.
There is no danger of forming an in
furious habit, as the tablets contain alb
solutely nothing but natural digestives:
have no place in stomach medicine,
and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are GER
tainly the best known and most popular
of all stomach remedies.

practically to manufacturing operations
Within the past twenty years, and more
particularly in the last decade. the use
of electricity for lighting and for the OPP
Grafton of street railways has developed
enormously, and has resulted in the use
OF power in an entirely new field to an
extent that exceeds the total amount of
power used In many Of the larger man
ufacturing industries.
In 1900 over 1900 electric railway lines
were in operation in the United States.
and the total capacity Of their power
plants exceeded 100000 horse power.
There are over $500 central stations for
the distribution of electric current for
lighting and other purposes. and the
total amount of steam, power used to
generate 1t is estimated at more than
1 100000 horse power. One company
alone, in New York city, operates sew
eral central stations. aggregating nearly
250, 900 horse power. The isolated electric
plants in that city represented over
100000 horse power.
Skyscrapers' Needs.
The modern Office building. often hous-

DEAF MUTES To PAY

The cessation of this sport is the re-

evening a Number of the older students

Pillaged the Chapel.
The boys then turned their attention
to the chapel, hiding all the chairs and
replacing the Bible used in chapel exer-
cises with a Webster's dictionary of the
same size. All might have ended with
out serious result were it not that on
this particular evening reception was
to be given by one of the professors who,
with his family, occupies a room on the
second floor. The guests complained to
the professor. and he reported the mat
ter to the president of the college, Dr.
Gallaudet.
The doctor requested the presidents of
the different classes to investigate the
matter, but there was no result, Then
DR.. Gallaudet took the matter in hand.
After giving some advice in the chapel
regarding the value of truth, he asked
all the students innocent of the dis
turbance to leave the chapel. In body
they all retired. The doctor called them
back. and asked the guilty parties to
stand up. No one stirred. Each stu
dent was then given an individual hear
ing but this Plan was as much of fail
ure as the others.

DANGEROUS SURGERY.
should Be the Last Resort.

Many people suffer from piles, be-
cause after trying various lotions,
salves and olntmeats without relief
on cure. they come 10 the conclusion
that surgical operation is the last
resort, and rather than submit to the
shock and risk OF life of an operation,
prefer to suffer on; very often, how
ever the afflicted one is over per
suaded to resort to the knife. and
even though the operation is appar-
emily successful. and there is com
plete recovery from the shock Incl
dent thereto, the result Is invariably
the same; the piles sooner or later re
turn because their cause has not been
removed This result is a logical one.
inasmuch as the knife removes the ef-
fects OF the disease only, while the
cause remains as before. There is
claimed to be a remedy which does re
move the cause, hence eradicating the
disease. and that Is the Pyramid Pile
Cure. It is in the form Of a supposi
tory. is applied directly to the parts
affected, and brings about a complete
cure, quietly and painlessly. In this
connection the testimony of MI John

usual interest
