MAKING CAR WHEELS STRONG
Severe Tests to Which They Are Sub
jected in Manufacture.
fl,o Ru6 u6alo


Some remarkable tests on car wheels
have Just been made at the foundres of
the New York car wheel works at Black
RCck. The company is filing an order for
special quality Of wheels to be used under
JOG, 0,OOO-pound capacity cars now being built
for the Pennsylvania railroad by the Press
ed Steel Car Company. The requirements
for wheels for such work are very severe,
and railroad engineers have regarded that
proposition as one of the most difficult to
be faced In modern railroadng All the
railroad papers have recently been filled
with discussions on the subject.
The load to be carried by each wheel in
double the load in ordinary practice. The
New York car wheel works have made a
speciality for some years of chilled wheels
for special service. and the progress made
in the manufacture has been demonStra ed
by tests The specific ations and test re-
quirements of the Master Car Builders AS
sociation require wheels to stand ten blows
of a weight of 40 pounds falling twelve
feet the wheel being placed horizontally,
supported at three points on the tiange.
Some railways also require the wheels to
stand the thermal test. which consists Of
casting band of molten iron, II. inches
thick by inches wide, around the wheel
tested. The test demonstrates the ability
of the wheel to withstand excessive heat
ing from brake service. The roads in
spector selects three wheels from each lot
of 100 offered. and if any one fails to meet
the test requirements the lot is rejected.
1t can be seen that the tests are severe,
even in regular practice.

Vesuvius.
From the Academy,

From the Academy.
There was no life on that bare, black.
birdless cone, and as we climbed an Icy
wind began to blow, and the lava dust
stung the face like hail. The crust was
warm to the feet. / dipped my hand into
an aperture the size of a rabbit hole and
withdrew it hot and wet. On every side the
smoke eddied up from tiny craters; but all
these things were details In face of that
everlasting vomit of black smoke from
the crater. The wind ragged above us as
we drew near the crater, and the lava dust
spat most viciously, the sulphurOus smoke
hid the world from our view. 1t was as If
the lieutenants Of that angry monarch
strove to prevent mortals from gazing too
closely at her Internal orgies. On hands
and knees we grabbed our way up the cone
coughing. blinded by the smoke. buffeted
by the Icy wind. We reached the verge
of the crater and threw ourselves on our
cauldron of fire and smoke. The guide
clutched my arm and motioned me to follow
him round the edge Of the crater. l crawl
ed after him, crying 'EnOugh!' But he did
not hear. He could not have heard a fog
horn in the roar of that wind. ''Enough!'
I baWled, trying to grab him. "E-nough!'
/ roared clutching at his leg. He shrugged
his shoulders, and, taking my arm, We
plunged down through the lava. A few
PAGES below he stopped. 1 bent toward
him. and through the screams Of the wind
heard him say, "Give me a leetle present
to buy ma caroni."

PRINCELY CADETS.
Young East Indian Chiefs and Mobiles
Who Have Joined New Corps.


From the New York Post.
Thus far seventeen young chiefs and no.
bles have Joined the imperial cadet corps,
which was established in India short
while ago. OF these thirteen come from
Raiputana and the central states, two from
the Bombay presidency, one from the Pun
lab and one from Hydera bad. Four are
ruling chiefs. The others are scions Of
princely or aristocratic families, most of
whom have been educated at the various
chiefs colleges. 1t is the purpose Of the
yiceroy to modify in some degree the cur
riculum at these institutions, in order that
the pupils may be better qualified for the
duties which they will have to perform
hereafter as cadets. and later in staff posi-
tions in the Anglo-Indian army.
A winter camp for the corps has been
arranged at Meerut, and the first course of
instruction will be given there. The gov
ernment will provide each cadet with a
charger The number of horses and ponies
and personal attendants for each cadet
has been narrowly limited Living in camp
will be simple and the discipline strict The
closest attention will be paid to caste rules.
The entire course of instruction, which will
combine drill. riding and military exercises.
with suitable indoor instruction, will be 80
designed as to enable the pick Of the cadets
in time TO take their places as AoritiSh Of
ficers, while never losing the character and
bearing of Indian gentlemen. When on
duty and during instruction the cadets will
wear simple uniform. for which special
designs are to be made. Probably the
cadets will soon be inspected by the vice
roy. and they will form a conspicuous fea-
ture in his escort at the proclamation dnr-
bar at Delhi on January 4, 1903 The result
of this attempt to bring the British and
native divisions OF the Anglo Indian army
into close relationship will be watched with
interest.

Possibilities Of Steel Famine.
From the Scientific American.

tfOm the Sc1entlhc American
OF all our Industries the manufacture of
steel affords, perhaps, the most striking evil
dence Of the unrivaled run Of prosperity
that the country is now enjoying. In spite
of the fact that our production. both of pig
iron and finished steel, greatly exceeds that
Of any other country in the world, the de-
mand Of the home market is such that it
has overtaken our production, and even
gives promise Of exceeding it. One of the
leading officials OF the largest bridge COM
pany in this country considers indeed that
VIC may shortly be confronted with a steel
famine Of serious proportions. So greatly
has the home demand increased that no
contracts are being made for export, and
importations from abroad are looked upon
as inevitable. AS illustrating the condition
# affairs, the case may be mentioned Of
Al. important southern road which has been
unable to secure delivery of a much-needed d
1rder for %, 600 tons of steel rails. and in
consequence is now driven to the consider
&lion Of Immediately importing 10000 tons
from abroad. 1t has been customary to
speak of the recent remarkable development
Of our export trade as the overflow Of an
industrial development which had exceeded
the demands of the home market. We very
much doubt IL the ablest prophets OF
finance ever expected to see the day when
the enormous and pidly-increasing output
of our steel industry would be overtaEen by
the demand for home consumption.

Intelligence Of Animals.


Elephants are among the most severely
drilled of animals; their intelligence does
not have free play in consequence. But all
English trainers agree that there is a great
difference in capacity between them, and
that some will learn and remember a les
son far mora quickly than others Cats
have very level brains and are too self
center and self-contained. as a rule. to
show the distinctions which exist bet
them. Their strongest instinct is toward a
Kind OF domestic comfort not exactly
shared with human beings. but enjoyed in
their company, to which the cat perfectly
adapts itself. Yet there are misanthropic
cats which make no Secret of their dislike
and contempt for mankind In general onl,,
come into the house under protest and
would prefer to sleep in a coal cellar to
taking their nap in good society These
are the exceptions in the cat world, but
every one has met with them. Birds are
usually regarded as possessing brains in
classes, no. as Individuals the origin of
the belief being probably the fact that
birds Of one species usually build exactIv
the same kind of nest. The generalization
is not correct. The same species may have
brains of all capacities.
