Power from the Tide.

An interesting little plant, in which
the rise and fall of the tides is used as
motive power FOR the generation Of cleo
tricity, is described in ''Stein und Eisen."
Near Floumanach, on the northern coast
of France, where the tides have daily
range Of 80 feet, a small fish pond
separated from the sea by a dixie is ar
ranged with gates closing automatically
when the tides recede.
The machinery of an old grist mill is
used to operate a small dynamo, which
charges a storage battery and furnishes
light for the fish industry there. An
other wheel in the same mill works an
ice making machine, the whole thing
being under the charge of one man. 1t
is stated that the total daily expenses for
generating about 1000 horsepower hours
is eight marks, or eight francs, or about

ton and they were married in Columbus
two months ago. From Columbus they
went to indianapolis where his money
gave out and he could not find work
They came to Milwaukee penniless, and
not being able to find work, Williams
undertook to raise money by criminal
means. He was so successful that he did
not hesitate to continue the practice, and
left the city only when he felt that de
lection was imminent
Followed by His Wife.
Williams wife was left in Indian
apolis several days ago when he was
brought here by the detective, but she
borrowed money and followed him as
rapidly as possible.
Il love him." she said, ''and will wait
for him."
Judge Brace advised Williams to let
his punishment serve as a lesson.

ALFONSO'S ISLAND PALACE.
Wedding Present in the Bay of Arosa tt
Be Site of Royal Summer Home.

Wedding Present in the Bay of Arosa to
Be Site of Royal Summer Home
King Alfonso of Spain is preparing to
enjoy next summer the odd wedding pres
ent that some wealthy Spanish noble
men bestowed on him and Queen Vic
toria. He is having Il palace built on the
island of Cortegada in the Bay of Arosa,
opposite the port of Carril and the sum
mer resort of ilIargarca, famous for It's
sulphur baths. The villa at San SebaS-
tan, at which he has heretofore spent
good deal of time each summer, is the
property of his mother, and the new
summer home is designed to give the
youthful couple a place where they can
entertain guests independently.
The island is about three miles ana a
half i'll circumference. 1t is diversified in
surface and beautifully wooded, while in
all directions it receives cooling breezes
and commands splendid views, varying
from the broad Atlantic to the pctur-
esque shores of the bay. Previously to
it's purchase for the King it had a popu
latiOn of seventy fisher folk, who inhab-
tied eighteen dwellings,. They sold out
their rights to the intending donors, shar-
ing the desire of the latter, rs they put
it, to please their sovereign, upon the
one condition that the Chapel of the In
carnation, a far famed shrine to which
pilgrims from all the fishing villages of
the coast resorted, should remain UNI
touched and should be always accessible
to pilgrims.
The King has placed the building of
his palace and the identifying of the
Island in the hands of the Marquis de
Viana and a Madrid architect, Senior Ri
poles. The building is TO be of semi
Arab design, following the general lines
of some of the most famous parts of the
Alhambra. The harhor is also to be de-
veloped so that the King can indulge in
