Steel Grows "Tired'' and ~
Breaks When Least Expected

bearings which secure it are not in
proper line, the fibers are continually
undergoing alternate stretching and
compression, and the result is that,
after certain number of revolutions
of the engine, the rod finally breaks.
The plan of the Institute of Tech
nology is, in other words, to bring
about the very same conditions in the
laboratory as actually occur in prac-
tice. 1t runs machines for no other
purpose than to deliberately break
things while the students and instruc-
tors keep tabs on the results. Finally.
after a long series of experiments, the
rules governing these breakages will
appear. If a shaft of a certain dame
ter, subjected to a given strain, breaks
after so many turns, and one of twice
the size under the same strain after
so many more, and so on for different
sizes and different strains, then, ulti-
mately, competent surveyor on dis
covering that a vessels machinery was
out OF proper line, could, by measure
mentS and calculations, establish the
possibility Of accident and either con-
denim suspected parts before their
breaking time arrived, or at least see
TO 1t that they were thoroughly and
accurately tested. The same rules could
De applied to the Shafting of elevator
machinery, to locomotive aXles, to the
thousand and one things that we de-
pend on daily for our lives.
The case of the vibrating bridge is
more complicated. for one cannot count
the tremblings of a suspended thor
oughfare. Yet there is way of get
ting at bridge failures too; for it seems.
in the light of recent experiment, that
this WEAKNESS of structural materials
is accompanied by change in their
very fbers themselves, just as molas-
ses candy, after sufficient stretching
and pulling, changes in character alto
gether. This being SO. a steel bar can
be strained or squeezed in the power
full testing machines at the institute
to any desired extent. and then cut in
sections and examined under the mic
roscope or watched under the influence
of acids. The particular state of it's
fibers just before breaking being once

bridge compared under similar tests
Will soon disclose it's condition and
the stability of the whole structure will

necessity Of commission to examine
the fntellectuals of those who write
books
The paragraph is quoted merely for
the purpose Of saying a word about
the sort of publishers who bring ont
books of an inferior kind at the au-
thor's expense. 1t happens in this case
that the publishers are not guilty Of
this fault, but the short review calls to
mind the increasing number of volumes
which are published by men who are
not entitled to the term publishers.
Ihey are manufacturers of books at
the expense OF the authors. In about

The movement on the part of the
citizens in asking the council for a
better police force resulted in securing
for the city one of the best police de-
partments of any city in the South OF
its size. Marshall McLain has so far
proved an ideal officer and his selec-
tions have proved admirable ones. We
recommend the same tactics in regard
to fire department, and in judging
the future by the past, we can safely
say that if the citiazens at their
meeting next Monday night, take up
this matter, discuss it and make the
proper recommendations to the coun-
Gil, splendid volunteer fire depart
ment and reduction in insurance
rates will result.

UNJUST CRITICISM.

The criticism on the part of the
citizens of Sunfower county, and a
few Of the papers throughout the dis
trict, of Congressman Humphreys on
account of letter written by him to
Postoffice Inspector Fitzgerald, in re-
gard to the Indianola matter, are SO
unjust and unwarranted by anything
contained in the letter as to suggest
the idea, either that these parties
have failed to read the letter, or are
merely using this pretext to arouse
antagonism to our congressman.
The effort of Mr.. Humphreys to pre-
vent the closing of the Indianola post
office, and the writing of his letter
which grew out of it, are alike com
mendable as a. manifestation of his in
terest in the welfare of the people of
that community. 1t is perfectly app
parent from the letter that Mr.. Hum
phreys relied as to the facts stated
upon information furnished to him
by parties deemed to be entirely re-
sponsible by him, and there is not,
in our opinion, sentence in the let
ter which is fairly subject to cavil OF
criticism by any fair-minded man.
It is true that Republican senator
siezed upon and distorted phrase III
it for the purpose of bolstering up a
bad cause, but there is nothing in 1t
that calls for an apology from q
| Democrat.
The suggestion made that Mr.
Humphreys sided with a negro against
a white community appears so pre-
posterous to the people of the distric
in which Mr.. Humphreys lives, anC
who have known him for years, as tt
require no comment.
