ODD WATER WHEELS.
Some Float on Streams-Huge Ones
Make q River Lift Itself.

The people Of Syria and Tifis make
their streams do things that Americans
do not seem to have learned the secret
Of persuading the water courses Of this
country to perform.
At Tifis the natives have learned
how to utilize the power of the current
Of the river Kur without building
dams. What they have accomplished
possibly might be done by an Ameri-
can farmer living on the banks Of a
rapidly moving stream and desiring
small, cheap power. The Caucasians
build floats on the surface Of the river.
Into them are set water wheels. The
whole affair is fastened to the bank in
such a way that it will rise and fall
with any change in the level Of the
surface Of the river, so that the power
is about constant all the time.
In Hama, the ancient entering in Of
Klamath" the Syrians have accomplish
ed a feat that makes one think Of lift
ing oneself over fence by tugging at
ones bootstraps. They have harnessed
the historic Orontes, or Nahr el Asi, as
the Syrians call 1t, into the work Of
lifting itself many feet toward the ze-
NTH and trained it thus to water their
fruitful gardens and orchards.
AS for size, the water wheels which
do this work are as to other water
wheels what Niagara is to other water
falls. AS one stands by one Of these
great wooden frames revolving upon
it's wooden axle and looks up at its
perimeter forty feet above one thinks
it large and is astonished when he
turns his gaze up stream to see that
relatively it is not great wheel, for in
the distance looms up one sixty feet in
height. Even then he is not prepared
for the spectacle Of one ninety feet in
diameter grunting around on its cum
brous axle just outside the town.
Life in Hama for some people IS
like the liking of others for olives, an
acquired taste, because Of these very
water wheels. According as one feels

filled with nerve racking groans. Day
and night without ceasing these mass
i've, slow revolving structures utter
speech. For those who have acquired
taste for their companionship the never
ceasing tones are soothing, resembling
the ocean roar or slow fugue played
on some cyclopean organ The dia-
pason tones are deeper and louder than
the deepest organ stop. Now they are
in unison, now repeating the theme,
one after another, now for a brief mo-
ment in a sublime harmony never to
be forgotten, according to one traveller,
then once more together in a tremen-
dous chorus. The sounds are describ-
ed as a slow movement up the scale,
followed with heavy drop to the key
note as: Do mi sol, do do do; do sol la,
do do do. This unceasing Sisyphean
music, it is said, has been going on
for a century at least-New York

Bird. That Carry Their Young.

The woodcock, it Is said, has been
known to carry away her young when
threatened with danger. She places
them on her spread feet pressing them
between the toes and the breast. A
naturalist says many woodcocks also
carry their young down to marshy
feeding grounds In the evening, re-
turning before dawn. In fact they
have no means Of feeding their young
except by carrying them to their food,
for they cannot convey their food to
them.
