HAND POWER BUGGY.
New invention That Hay Compete
With the Automobile

A motorless Nauto-buggy, propelled
by means Of hand-wheels, may soon be
familiar feature of street traffic, if
the hopes of ]. r.. Blackburne of Lib
erty, DeKalb. county, are realized.
That they will be realized Mr.. Black
burne is confident and the fact that Oh
Saturday he received from the United
States patent Office letters patent on
his invention, have made him very
sanguine.
Mr.. Blackburne on Monday exhibit
ed the patent to an American reporter,
and showed detailed drawings of the
invention, which he believes is destin-
ed to succeed the automobile as that
machine has succeeded the horse
drawn vehicle.
Briefly described, the invention is
an ordinary buggy with the exception
that the rear axle and wheels reVolve
together; the axle is ball-bearing. It
is connected with system of gearings.
for every turn Of hand wheel, which
rises from the buggy bottom in front
of the passenger, revolyes the larger
rear wheels sixteen times. From this
it can easily be figured that as one
turn of the power wheel, turning the
rear wheel sixteen times, will carry
the vehicle something like 1T feet.
Thirty revolutions Of the power wheel
would therefore carry the vehicle a
mile. One turn Of the wheel every four
seconds would mean q speed Of thirty
miles an hour, and Mr.. Blackburne
asserts that Child. can turn the wheel
with ease and secure as great a speed
as grown man. In fact, Mr.. Black
burne further asserts that one.fourth
model of his invention was required
by the patent Office before issuing q
patent, and that his grandson, twelve
years old, operated the miniature ve,
hiclon the streets of Washington.
creang sensation by the speed at.
tained.
Colonel Blackburne states that bug
gies equipped with the invention can
be built and placed on the market to
sell for 800 to Si25 each, and he is,
confident that it will not be long until
the streets of Nashville are crowded
with his invention. He states that
the model he will have ready in two
weeks will be capable of attaining a.
speed Of mile a minute, and he as
serts that as test he will ride in the.
machine over any turnpike, preferring
those with the steepest grades in order,
to show the hill-climbing ability OF
the machine. He states that he can
make the trip from Nashville to Le--
banon and return in less than two
hours, the distance being about twenty
miles each way.-Nashville American.

new SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
1t is Thought That Thermit is the
Exact Opposite of Liquid Air.

DR.. Hans Goldschmidt of Essen, has
invented thermit. 1t is the exact op--
posite of liquid air. and is composed of
oxygen in the form of oxides and
aluminium. Combined and iguited.
these substances produce a tempera-
ture equal to that of the arc light, and
of the highest value for the welding
cf large pieces of iron and steel, es-
pecially in the repair of broken parts
of huge machines, which it is not
desired to take apart and send to
great forge. Thus, it will be of inesti-
mable value for the Welding of ships
parts, fractured sections of ordinance
and for work on bridges and railways
1t already has been proved to be Of
the greatest commercial Importance,
having been employed for the purposes
indicated in nearly all Of the principal
cities of Europe, for, unlike liquid
air, its uses are not confined to the
wholly spectacular side Of science.
Thermit compound is grayish
black powder. much like coarse gun
powder in appearance. When it is
desired to secure pure iron, either for
welding or for the arts, this powder
is placed in crucible- of magnesia,
or other substance that will resist the
maximum of heat, with a quantity of
iron rust, and then igrited by pinch
of peroxide of barium and fuse.
The result is Immediate The
oxygen of the iron rust combines with
the aluminium, producing aluminium
oxide, while the iron contained in the
oxide of iron sinks to the bottom below
the aluminium Stag.
This action takes less than one min
ute. An enormous heat is developed
with safety, for the crucible may be
moved about with the hands. The
chemical reaction provides a rapid
evolution of heat, which when started
from given point. raises tie next
nearest portions of the mixture to
temperature sufficiently high to cause
another reaction, and this mode Of
heat propagation continues until the
entire contents of the cruclble are ig
nited. d.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

TO Fight The BOIL WEEVIL,
CONGRESS Makes tha Sum of
$250,0O0 Available.

Washington, Jan. S.-The House to-
| day made available the sum of $3.50, :
600 to be used to meet the emergency
caused by the ravages of the cotton
boil weevil and other insects and dis
eases affecting cotton. The measure
had the support of both sides and was
! adopted without division. The sum
is diverted from the half million dol
lars appropriated last year to eradicate
the foot and mouth disease among
cattle.
Mr. Burleson, of Texas, explained
that the bill simply diverted money
heretofore appropriated for another
purpose, and did not make new apprc-
priation. He urged the importance of
the passage of the bill to- the cotton
growing sections, giving the history
of the boil weevil and what it has done.
Mr.. Gillette, of Massachusetts,, call
ed attention to another insect-the
gypsy moth-which has been brought
to New England and which, be said,
was equally dangerous and should re-
ceive attention with view to extermi-
nation
Mr.. Robinson, of Michigan, said be
believed it would be esta blishiDg a
bad precedent to pass the bill.
MI. Gillette, of Massachusetts, offer
ed an amendment for an additional ap-
preparation Of $3.50, 600 for the eradica-
tion of the Egyptian moth.
The Speaker sustained point of
order against the amendment and the
bill was passed without division. It
provides that the sum made available
may be expended by the Secretary of
Agriculture in such manner as be
shall deem best, in cooperation with
State experiment stations and practi-
cal cotton growers, if the Secretary Of
Agriculture shall deem it advisable,
10 meet the emergency caused by the
ravages of the cotton boil weeyii and

MR.. sHAW,s AppREas.

For a frost and a failure the meet
ing in the Opera House last Monday
night under the auspices OF the Roose-
veit Workingmen's Club has OCCASION
ed much comment
AS "A matter Of fact Secretary shaw's
address has attracted a great deal OF
attention ana has been the subject Of
a great deal Of comment from the met
ropolitan papers. When we regard this
newspaper audience we shall come to
see that Mr. Shaw was really speaking
to hundreds Of thousands. and his re-
marks must be regarded as important
when viewed from any standpoint.
The Secretary devoted most OF his
time TO demolishing such campaign ar
guments as have already been ad-
vanced by the Democrats for want Of
anything better. None Of these argu-
ments carries conviction. 1t is said
that President Roosevelt is rash and
unsafe, vet this charge cannot be sub
stantiated, although he has been Pre-
sident nearly three years. Surely that
is sufficient time for one to demon-
strate his qualities.
The policies Of the Republican party
are attacked; yet under those policies
the country has been prosperous. and
lis prosperous. There is no panic In
sight, but all our financial and indus
trial activities bespeak continued pros
perity.
The fact is that the Democrats have
no live issue, nothing which will con-
vince the people that change is need
ed. All the alarming prophecies sent
out by the Democratic Congressional
Committee are dicounted by the reports
Of trade and finance. The Roosevelt
administration has been thoroughly
American, active and energetic. and
under It no legitimate Industry has
suffered.

thirty cents for every crate OF berries

ever since the season opened, but that
will not account for the low prices. The

could manage. Now whole fields are
set. and by improved methods larger
yields are secured. We suspect that
fruit growers will be compelled TO turn
their attention more largely to other
products.
But what shall they beg Peach grow
ing with "yellows" and "San Jose
scale" is getting to be extra hazardous.
Every fan the markets are overloaded
with sweet potatoes. Melons are un-
certain, and it often happens that they
are not worth harvesting, and often
times trucks do not pay the freight.
Many farmers are again turning their
attention to corn and large acreage

that is likely TO prove the most proft-
