A system of chariot wheels, mounted on
beautiful steel ball-bearings have been
perfected now that carries these great
masses of ground glass so smoothly that
the touch of a finger is sufficient to set
them revolving. Once, as an experiment,
a mighty third order lens actually was set
to revolving in the lighthouse head
quarters at Tompkinsville, Staten Island,
by a man with powerful lungs, who blew
at it until it turned.
Another big improvement in the efficiency
of the lighthouse service is the final con-
struction of an apparatus that will burn
acetyline gas perfectly. Scores Of plans
have been tried only to be rejected, but
now the department feels fairly certain
that II has succeeded.
The value OF acetyline gas for coast lights
does not lie in it's Illuminating power. Ker-
osene oil has been found to be the most
satisfactory in all respects for all kinds of
lights in that respect. But acetyline gas
is of great value with the hundreds of
lights that are not in the care of keepers,
but are simply lighted and left burning day
and night. Small lights set on bars and
reefs, range lights set along shore and on
hill tops, and many lesser lights in harbors
and estuaries are kept going this way.
The trouble with kerosene is that after
a time the wick carbonizes and the light
fails before the kerosene in the reservoir is
exhausted. With the nov apparatus for
making and burning acetyline gas, there is
no such trouble and the burners will last
at least as long as the gas holds out.
Lights have been kept burning for 60 days
and nights without needing attention.
The method cannot be applied to light
buoys or other floating lights, as the proper
production and government of the supply
Omaha daily bee., 1902-10-26

Of gas demand that water shall reach the
chemicals only in strictly regulated quanti-
ties. So that class Of lights still must con-
tinue to depend on ordinary gas and keTo-
sene for fuel. For this purpose immense
iron tanks are used. On their top is a
cage in which the lens is set. Immense
chains are shackled to the bottom and a
queer cast iron mushroom anchor hold
them in position. These mushroom anchors
or sinkers are so shaped that they work
themselves deep into the mud or sand and
after a few weeks they cannot be dis,odged
even by the huge derricks of the lighthouse
tenders. When it is desired to take up
buoys of this kind-as in the winter when
the ice threatens them-they are unshacklel
from the chains and dragged aboard, and
big wooden spaTs are fastened to the chains
to serve as marks until the danger is pa t.
While every year sees more or less
damage to lighthouses and beacons there
is only one spot along the coast that has
deied the lighthouse builders successfully
and hat is Diamond Shoals off Cape Hat
teras, the most dangerous place in the
lighthouse service. A lighthouse engineer
will get "hot in the collar" if it is sug-
gested that this spot has defeated the
department. He will say that a lighthouse
can be built there and built to stay. He
will point to the lighthouse that finally
was constructed and has remained of the
mouth of the Elbe, a worse spot than even
Diamond Shoals. But the question OF money
prevents. A lighthouse on Diamond Shoals
would cost too much.
So this year, as In previous years, a
lightship will hang on to the bottom there
with its anchors like grim death with all
on board praying that 1t will continue to
hang on. A somewhat alarming comment

brass bands. The value of the bivalve lens
is that each face throws an immense beam,
concentrating the light rays that in the or
binary lens are dissipated by being shot
to many angles.
A bivalve light of the fourth order will
throw a flash of 5000 candle-power from
a light of only $50 candle-power.
Only a few OF them have been Installed
as yet. Their cost is heavy, a third-order
lens costing $12, 600.
One of these bivalve lights has been
installed in the famous Navesink light
house overlooking Sandy Hook. Although
not a hrst-order light, the new lens makes
It one of the most powerful In the world.
1t throws a flash every five seconds and
the lighthouse department has a report
from a sea captain who declares that he
saw the fash seventy-ive miles at sea.
II he was correct, what he saw at that dis
lance must have been the reflection of tho
fash on the sky, for the Navesink tower
Is 246 feet above the sea and consequently
the extreme limit at which the eye could
see the light directly is only twenty-five
and one-fourth miles, the curvature of the
earth %precluding any greater reach. But
this light is so powerful that 1t is Ger.
tain that its illumination of the sky and
sea can be seen from a distance many
miles beyond the direct reach OF its rays.
When twenty miles away from it its glare
is so binding in clear weather that the
eye is daZZled and panied by II.
The bivalve light, OF course, must be
revolved much more quickly than any
cylindrical lens and. as a lens weighs
from two TO three tons, according to its
class, the problem was a difficult one in
practical mechanics, since all the lights
OF the country are ~revolved by ~clockwork

Yes"
Then, the illustrations of the author Of

Then some fool of a rich fellow comes
along and offers a fabulous sum for the
original drawings, and wants an intrcduc-
ton to you, and invites you to dine with
him. and your fortune is made, and your

on the beauty of the station is to be OBJ
served in the departments directions for
the year: Light vessels No. II to Y will
be used on this station alternately" Each
of these ships is fitted so that it can move
under it's own steam, so it will not be an
absolutely helpless hulk when it breaks
away from it's mooring in a bowling gale
as it will more than once in this coming
winter.
Lightship No. 80, also built to go under
its own steam, was driven from its anchor
age six times in four months, but man
aged to steam back to it's position each
time. The seventh time it failed. 1t fought
against the hurricane for three days and
then went up on the North Carolina beach
near the Creeds Hill Life station. The
lifesavers got it's crew off.
The value of the Diamond Shoals light
ships is show by the fact that during
this vessels last year on it's station, $50
steam vessels and 1876 sailing vessels
passed it.
The United States light vessel that has
had what probably is the most extraordi-
nary experience is Columbia river light
vessel No. so. Its station is off the mouth
of the Columbia river, eight miles off
shore. That shore is one of high rocks and
forbidding promontories, wherefore there
are such names along its threatening miles
as Cape Disappointment, Cape Foul
weather and Destruction island. One day
in November a gale began to blow from
the sea. 1t rose to a rate of seventy-four
miles an hour. The heavy anchor chain
Of the light ship snapped. 1t drove toward
breakers that were so bad that even thu
old captain described them as 'frightful'
in his short, dry, official report.
Sail was made and the men worked it
about twenty-five miles off shore. The
next day two tenders steamed out and
tried to tow it in. Both failed. By dusk
the big high-sided lightship was in the
breakers.
Now there was only one chance for life.
North and south lay rocks, promising a
sure end to ship and men. But between
them lay a short stretch of sandy beach.
II the snip could hit that it might escape
immediate destruction. 1t was headed for
1t and struck the right spot before dark.
Its crew was taken off in the breaches
buoy.
when 1t struck it's men by consummate
skill had so handled its sails that 1t turned
head to sea and thus presented it's high
bow to the surf with the result of saving
IT, when the storm ended it was high and
dry on the sand. Then contract after con-
tract was made by the government to
launch 1t again. Each contractor failed.
Finally it was decided to haul the shin into
the woods behind the beach and across
half a mile Of country to Bakers bay. in
the mouth of the Columbia river. The shin
made the journey among the pine trees
without accident and within a month was
Iauhched and anchored in front of the
lighthouse departments wharf.

Such political rot as the Nor
ris Times is hashing up to its
readers will not make votes for
and candidate. It says, "Mr.
Babe is a young man un1m-
formed in the law and there
fore has no claims as compared
with Mr.. Bevans" for judge of
probate. AS a matter of fact,
that office can be successfully
conducted by any man who
has reasonable amount of
common sense and of sound
judgment, and we are con-
tident that Mr.. Babe is not
lacking in either of these
qualifications. Grant, Traverse,
Big Stone, Pope, and several
other counties we might name,
do not have attorneys for pro-
bate judge and seem to get
along nicely. AS to the claims
each candidate has upon the
republican party, that party
should be the best judge, aud
it is certainly bad form for a
democratic paper to attempt to
belittle a candidate upon such
trivial grounds.-Chokio Re-
view.

Last week inaugurated the
state campaign in earnest, and
for the next four weeks gum
shoes" will be thrown aside
and candidates on both sides
will tour the state with much
blaring of trumpets. Both sides
are using fewer speakers than
III previous campaigns, and
rdepend more on reaching the
individual voter. The demo-
cratic committee is doing this
largely by literature, which is
being printed by bales and sent
out through the mails by a
force of a dozen clerks and
stenographers. The votes are
also being reached by county
organizations.
The republican committee is
facing the situation frankly.
The danger of off-year apathy
is fully recognized, and the
principal effort of the cam
paign will be to impress on the
voters that every vote will be
needed. The primary election,
with it's excitement, is res
~ponsible for letting down of
effort in the strong republican
counties, where the majorities
come from, and it will require

voters out a second time in

For the benefit of our roader

For the benefit of our readers
who desire to know something
of J. F. Schain's Legislative
career we reprint the follow
ing bills which were intro
duCed by him during his
service i'll the lower house,
which later became laws:
H. F. No. 318-An act to
provide for collection of taxes
in certain cases. This act pre-
vented the removal of build
ings from lands which had
been sold for taxes by the state.
H. +. No. 498-An act to per-
feet the record evidence of
title to certain land, carrying
with it an appropriation of
$4,000. This bill provided for
the placing on record in coun-
ties where located of certain
lands which had been granted
to railroads in the early history
of the state, thus bringing
them under the direct taxation
in the counties where the lands
were located. There was a large
amount of these lands in
Traverse and adjoining Coun-
ties, and all are now on record
in the register of deeds office.
H. F. No. 195-An act requir-
ing railroads to build platforms
to facilitate the loading of
grain, livestock and other COM
modities into cars for ship
ment. In Mr.. Schain's original
bill he further provided for the
placing of scales i'll railroad
yards at stations for the weigh
ing OF grain, cattle, etc., but
this part of the bill was
stricken out, after a hard fight,
in committee.
H. F. No. 395-An act to
create a system of district poor
houses. This measure permits
two or more counties to unite
in the establishment of a poor
house or farm where the poor
of the counties so united may
be cared for at a pro rata rate.
H. F. No. 5S-An act DrOvid-
ing for the care of the property
of persons committed to a state
hospital for the insane.
Another important bill in
troduced by Mr.. Schain was
one which provided for a
county assessor to be appointed
by the boards of county COM
missioners, but the measure
was defeated. It will be of
interest to know that the tax
com mission in it's report to the
special session of the 1egis-
lature last winter also recon-
mended a county assessor. e..
