A Mechanical Prizefi1hter.

To accommodate the needs of the
professional boxer, as we'll as to in
struct the novice in the noble art of
sclf-dcfensc, Mr.. Charles Lindsey, of
SO Glen Street, New Britain, Conn,
has invented an automatic sparring
machine. This machine is really a
formidable fighter, and has already
gained quite an cnviable reputation
in the many encounters it has had
with local talent. Not only does it
deliver straight leads and counters,
but it varies these with an occasional
uppcrcut, and its blows are raincd
with a speed and power that are the
envy of the professional boxer. The
machine does not telegraph" that
is, it does not give warning of the
coming blow by preliminary back
ward jerk, which is SO common to all
but the best of boxers. Nor can the
opponent escape these blows by side
stepping, because the automatom will
follow him from one side to the other.
At each side of the opponent is trap
door, connected with the machine in
such a way that when he steps on one
or other Of these doors, the machine
will swing around toward him. The
arms of the mechanical boxer are fit
ted with spring plungers, which are
connected with crank handles turned
by machinery. Separate crankshafts
are used for the right and left arms,
and they carry pulleys between which
an idle pulley is mounted. These
pullcys are connected with the main
pulley by a belt which is
shifted from side to side, bringing
first one and then the other Of the

neither paste nor glue is required as
a fastener. Since all coins are not OF
the same thickness, naturally the
length of the package varies for differ
cnt coins; but whatever may be the
length, the crimpers force the edges
of the paper up tightly to the surface
of the coins. When the crimping is
completed the package resembles a
cartridge, when it is elected from the
machine into a box, which may then
be detached and carried wherever the
packages of coin may be needed. One
of the clever features about the ma
chine made wrapper is that, like a
good safe, it is burglar proof; that is
to say, it is quite impossible to break
into it and extract a coin without
completely destroying the paper case
in which it is wrapped. AS the ends
of the of the package arc not sealed,
it is unnecessary to write or print on
the wrapper the value of the coin in
side, as the denomination can be cas-
lily seen; if, however, such markings
should be desired the role of paper
can be printed before it is put into
the machine. scientific American.

Mexican Pearls Of MANY Hues.

jewelers. are learning to realize the
value Of the Mexican pearl, and the
seasons work in pearl fishing is prov
ing very rcmuncrative. Adrain Cor
neio, prominent pearl fisher of Low
cr California, says that the pearl fish
crs all along the coast of the gulf are
doing an excellent business this year.
In this part of Mexico there is more
variety in the color of the pearl found
than in any other part of the world.
The colors include black, grey, red,
blush green and yellow. Mexican
pearls are rapidly gaining a good rep
utation in the markets Of the world.
In Paris, which is the center OF the
pearl trade, there are no pearls more
in favor than those from Mexico.
There is now about as much pros
pccting for pearls in the Gulf OF Cali
fornia as there is hunting for mines
throughout the interior of Mexico,
and the entire gulf coast is closely in
spcctcd by pearl fishers or prospect
ors. The best pearls are to be found
in the bottom of the pearl beds. For
this reason old beds that were some
time ago supposed to have been work
cd out have lately been raked over,
sometimes with excellent results. One
of the finest gray pearls ever found
was discovered in one OF these desert
cd beds. Among the most valuable
pearls to be found in the Gulf of Cal
ifornia are those of a reddish color,
but these are discovered only occa-
sionly. They have an exquisite lus-
ter and many of them are large and
of the most perfect shape.
Australia has taken steps to protect
her pearl fisheries for British seekers.
The report on British New Guinea,
just published by the Commonwealth
of Australia, contains an amendment
to the law relating to pearl shell and
"bcchc de mcr" fisheries, under
which no ship or boat is to be licens-
ed to fish for pearls of bcchc de mer
unless owned by natural-born British
subjects, naturalized subjects, dcni-
zcns of British New Guinea or Of Aus
tralia and bodies corporate establish
cd under the laws of some parts Of
the British dominions. This is said
to be an act of retaliation in view of
the German regulations regarding Sa-
mOa.

Married..

Mr.. Victor S. Martin, formerly of this
place, son of Rev. and Mrs. w. l.. Mar
tin, was united in marriage on Sunday,
June oath, to Miss Pearl A. Witter at
Los Angeles, Cal, the present home of
both parties. The wedding trip included
Mt. Wilson, CAL, 5000 feet above the sea.
They We're remembered by their many
friends with more than 100 various useful
and valuable presents.
The Los Angeles Young Men, paper
published by the Young Mems Christian
Association, says:
"The men who have thought that Mr..
Victor Martin, the genial office secretary,
was bluffing in regard to his declarations
Of intended matrimony, have nothing
more to say. The force with which Mr..
Martin responded 81 will" in answer to
the minister's question last Sunday, left
no doubt in the minds of his friends that
his marriage had his entire consent. The
ceremony was performed at the United
Brethren church at Hope and Pico, of
which Mr.. Martin is member, the pas
tor, Rev. Parks, reading the service.
The bridal pair came down the aisle of
the church unattended, and pledged the
marriage vows with the simplicity and
earnestness that concealed neither their
joy nor the sense of the sacredness of
the occasion. After the ceremony the
many friends of Miss Witter, now Mrs.
Pearl Martin and Mr.. Martin crowded
around the pair and wished them all the
good things that ever these two worthy
people might desire"

of the Los Angeles Y. M. c. A., and his

boxing arms into action. The belt
shifter is operated by an Irregular cam
at the bottom of the machine, and
this gives no inkling as to which fist
is about to strike. Aside from this,
the body of the boxer is arranged to
swing backward or forward under the
control of an irregular cam, so that
the blows will land in different places
on the opponent; for instance, a back
ward swing of the body will deliver
an uppercut. The machine is driven
by an electric motor, and can be made
to rain blows as fast as the best box
er can receive them, or it may be OPP
Grated slowly for the instruction OF
the novice. As the machine is fitted
with spring arms and gloves, an agile
opponent can ward off the blows and
thus protect himself.

MIX as Fire Extinnulsher.

centered over Frederick between and Z

a large bank barn on the farm of Charles
Wachter, a short distance beyond the fair
grounds, completely destroying togeth-

At the time the barn was struck Mrs.
Wachter was in the building milking a
cow. A ball of fire fell from the roof
close to where the cow was standing and
Mrs. Wachter eXtinguished it with the
pail of milk Immediately afterward the
roof caught fire and while it was burning
the live stock was removed. The wheat
crop was insured. The storm was severe

ever, was particularly good.
The attendance, we regret to say, was
small This was due to the fact that our

selves celebrating the day. Many accus-
toned to attending entertainments were
out of town picnicing and did not return
until late in the evening.
