NEW PROCESS IN ALLOYS.
Philadelphia Claims to Have Dis
covered a Perfect Way of Unit
ing Copper and Iron

A Philadelphia man claims to have
overcome the difficulties besetting those
who have attempted TO MAKE alloys Of
copper and iron, and to have discovered
a process of alloying these metals per-
fectly homogeneously. The process con-
sists of melting copper with a mixture OF
oxide iron and calcium carbide. Any
oxide of iron, either hematite or the
black, oxide, can be used. A mixture of
three parts of oxide of iron and one part
calcium carbide is made, and, if it is de-
sired to obtain a so per cent. alloy Of
copper and iron, Is parts Of this mixture
should be used to eight parts copper.
The copper is melted in a crucible and
the mixture added, a little at a time, the
bath being stirred and the temperature
raised gradually. When the operation
is completed the alloy is found in ingots
of any other desired form. If an alloy
containing as much as IS per cent. OF
iron is required the process is reversed,
a bath of iron being substituted for the
bath of copper and a mixture of oxide of
copper and calcium carbide being added.
The inventor claims that, on account Of
the fact one of the metals is presented
to the other in a nascent condition, a
perfect union is formed.

CRUDE WIRELESS OUTFIT.
Eighteen ear-Old Iowa Boy Displays
Ingenious Skill in Making In
struments of His Own.

Willie Peeler, aged IS, has completed
from makeshift materials, says the Fort
Dodge Ua.) correspondent of the New
York Herald.
In July young Peeler attended q lee
ture on liquid air and wireless telegra-
ply. He was SO impressed that he re-
NAMED after the lecture for further in
vestigation. The lecturer was meeting
others, and did not have time to an
swer the questions put by the youth.
This, however, did not deter the lad from
making careful inspection of the in
struments.
81 can make that, and I'm going to
have one" he remarked to a compan-
ion. And he did. His patience is shown
in the induction coil which he made. 1t
has 2h miles of fine wire wound by hand
on a reel and required all of his even
ings for a week. Each layer of wire is
vanished and padded with layers of
newspaper. It's power is sufficient to pro-
duce waves that will carry a mile.
Two copper plates were necessary to
complete his system, but his limited
means derived from clerking in a
grocery store, did not permit of his buy
ing them at so cents each. Nothing
daunted, he took two empty lard cans
and from the tops of these made the
necessary plates.
Silver filings in a glass tube comprised
another needed part. An aluminium
cap and a sewing machine needle were

a lighted candle or gas jet, sufficiently
high SO that there is no fear of the SER
pent's burning up, but also low enough
for it to be influenced by the draught
which ascends from the fame.
The pin may be stuck in a wooden sup
port over the fame and then the serpent
will keep ever on the move.
But what maks it go?
The flame of the candle or gas jet is
in constant need of air to keep it burn
ing. The air circles around the fame
on all sides. One portion of it (oxygen)
is instantly taken into the fame, and
the rest of it (%nitrogen) ascends in the
direction of the arrows Gig. q, ming
ling with the heated air (carbonic acid,
etc. which issues from the end Of the
flame. Now, you probably know that
hot air is lighter than cold air, SO that
is the reason it rises in an attempt to find
its own level, just as a cork floats to the
waters surface from the bottom.
A stream of air, therefore, plays
against the paper serpent, and striking
its slanting sides, gives it a twist which
sets it whirling around, and, also puz-
zles the onlookers, who will always be
mystified concerning the source of its
hidden power until you see fit to ex4
plain.

with an elevation no greater than the
height of a man is 1900 feet for the
Japanese rife compared with 1,7OO feet
for the Russian piece.
The Arisaka rifle has a central maya
zine of the Mauser type. 1t Is simple
in its mechanism and is easily manipu-
lated. The movable breech includes a
cylinder working with a lever, a NOV
able head and a firing pin. with cock
and rebounding spring. The loading of
the peace is rapidly executed. Open
ing the breech, the central magazine is
charged with a metal loader, a kind of
small box or clip holding five cart
ridges aepress a spring in the magazine
by which they are automatically raised
into firing position. The empty shell
is, of course automatically elected by
drawing back the cylinder, the same
operation serving to set the firing pin.
Both the Russian and japanese cart
ridges are charged with smokeless pow
der, the Japanese containing slightly
more of the explosive than the Rus
sian. The Japs manufacture their own
powder. the Itabaska brand.
One of the best features of the Ari-
saka rifle is the velocity of the projec-
tile. In the old smooth-bore a bullet
aimed at an object 900 feet distant
would describe a parabola, the highest
point of which would be 129 feet above
a horizontal line drawn from the
mouth of the rifle to the target. With
the new Springfield, shooting at a
range of 1000 yards. the bullet rises at
it's greatest height only 81 feet, Wills
the Krag bullet, under the same condi-
lions, rises 26 feet, the turning point
in the trajectory being midway between
the marksman and the target. The Ari-
saka has a slightly fatter trajectory
than the Springfield, and in close fight
ing the bullet practically move in a
straight line. This quality adds con-
siderable to the weapons accuracy.
The bayonet used on the Arisaka rifle
is Of the Sword" type, and can easily
be detached and used as a hand
weapon in close fighting.

MOLASSES TANK STEAMERS
Product Has Proved Emin-
emily Successful.

There is a company in Boston which
purchases large quantities of molasses
in New Orleans and sells it in New
England. Last winter it conceived the
idea of employing a new system of
handling the product. If the commod-
ity could be pumped, it could be car
ried in tank steamers as oil is carried,
thus saving the packages, the cost OF
which runs from 10 to 100 per cent. Of
the cost of the molasses itself, time in
loading and discharging, space in YES
sells and on shore, and leakage, which
latter is a big item with the wooden
method of shipping. The cost of hand
ling would be much reduced and COOP
erage would be eliminated by shipping
in tank steamers. Nowadays there are
tank steamers plying between Atlantic
and the gulf ports, which carry molas-
ses from March to October and oil tho
remainder of the year, the molasses
being more economically pumped in
tbs warm weather. BY battening down
the matches after discharging a cargo
of Oil it is possible to thoroughly
steam out the hold and then, by scrub
bling the tanks, the oil can, it is said,
be completely removed.
When the plan was first seriously
considered, the company's engineers
wers not aware that any such thing
was done elsewhere, and were some
what in the dark about certain essen
tial details. 1t was necessary, for in
stance, to find out about the friction
of the molasses, SO as to know how
much power must be used with the
pumps. Experiments OF their own
gave unsatisfactory results. Then it
was discovered that at some of the
northern sugar ~refineries it is CUSTOM
airy 20 force the molasses left by the
separation of the sugar into tanks
There are distilleries, too, In which
something of the kind is done. BY
visiting these places the engineers
learned nearly all that was necessary.
They then went ahead. The molasses
is now taken from the vessels in short
order and transferred to enormous
tanks in warehouses at the head OF
their pier. The machinery and pipes
are designed to extract 5000 DOC gallons
from a ship in SO hours, or 227 gallons
a minute. After the molasses is in the
main tanks on the wharf, another set
of m are used to send it into the
mixing room in smaller quantities.
Although the standpipe has a diameter
of fnIIy eight inches. the flow is at
fected by cold weather.

The rife with which the Japanese
army have been doing such execution

a native, Col. Ariskaa, after whom it

1t is a combination OF the best fea-
lures of the Mauser and the Italian
Mannlicher, adding thereto certain orig
nal ideas of Col. Arisaka.
The rifle has a caliber of 6.5 mill

CAPTIVE SAVED BY STORK.
Bird Carried a Message from Moorish
Prison to Quiet Town in
Distant Norway.

The story is told of how, many years
ago. some English captives in a Moor
ish prison were rescued through the
means of a famous old hymn tune. A
British man-of-war had anchored OF
a port near Algiers which was notorious
for the pirate craft that it harbored. At
night, while all the crew except the
somewhere on shore singing a we'll
known air. Some of the ships officers
were quickly summoned, and as they
listened and the. singers voices-for
others had joined in-became louder
and clearer, they recognized the notes
of the grand "Old Hundred"
Guessing rightly enough that some Of
their fellow countrymen lay imprisoned
in the Moorish fortress, the captain gave
orders for the small boats to get out.
Then a strong landing-party Of we'll
armed seamen swiftly rowed in to shore,
stormed the fortress. In a very short
time the ~captives, three in number, were
safe on board the man-of-war.
Wonderful as this rescue may appear.
it is perhaps surpassed by the story OF
how Conrad Jonassen was restored to
liberty. Conrad was a Norwegian, and
as a boy had made a pet of a stork
which regularly visited his town. Year
after year the bird returned to where
it was always fed, to build its nest upon
the house roof and real it's brood of
young.

ANIMATED PAPER SERPENT.
A Very Pretty Heat Illusion and More
Effective Than Some That Are
More Elaborate.

The animated serpent is one of the
best of heat illusions, being a great deal
more effective than many elab-
crate. The serpent appears to be tire
less and automatic, for, though 1t has no
visible means Of motion, yet it keeps
whirling for hours without a stop-that
is, II you wish to burn that much gas or
consume a few pounds Of candles.
According to the Chicago Inter Ocean,
the serpent is made by drawing a spiral
like Fig. / upon a piece of stiff bristol
board. Cut the spiral out with a sharp
penknife, so that when you take hold
of the terminal portion, which repre-
sents a tail, you get a spiral of paper
with its lower end in the form of a
s%erpent's head. Stick a pin through the
end of the tail and hold the serpent over
