This year the republican conYeu-
ton will be he'd IN Chicago in June.

Clock with a Tingle Wheel,

Aclock with but a single wheel is de
scribed in Work. 1t was constructed
by Los Angeles clockmaker, and its
single wheel is more correctly describ-
ed as a perforated disc, which is kept
under rotary tension by two weights.
Inplace of a pendulum and gearing,
theity-one Ainch steel balls are used,
which operates consecutively When
the timepiece is set one of the metal
balls isc ausde to descend in zogzag
fashion the other. After the ball has
descended to the lower plate, its
course is directed in such way that /
enters one of the holes at the lower
end OF the perforated disc, releasing
the disc and then proceeding in its
rotary motion the space of one hole.
The time consumed by this operation
Is limited to one minute; thus the
disc Is pierced with sixty holes for
one hours time. The forward motion
and stopping is effected by the un-
locking and locking of spring.

Let US consider for one moment whn.
the idea OF the world was-not. indeed.
at the earliest period of which we

Of written history or OF written history
among that Indo-Germc mic people
whose descendants have overspread so
much OF the earth. The world of No.
mer was a small. fat surface. IN which
civilization was bemmed in by foreign
races. who again were surrounded by
a great ocean or river over which no
man had ever passed. The world OF
which Homer had any definite notion
was Greece-a Greece which hardly
extended as far as the Balkans on the
north and which scarcely included the
Levant and the Islands In the Aegean
sea. No doubt he had some general ac.
quaintance with world beyond these
narrow limits. He knew. ut any rate.
some OF the Leading features of north
ern Africa. He had heard, as was only
natural. OF Egypt. whose civilization
had made such marked advances and
was exercising so much influence. He
had some knowledge of the great river
on whose recurring foods Egypt de.
Ponds for her prosperity. He had even
heard OF the pygmies and OF the Ethio.
plans who dwelt higher up its stream
Some reports had reached him OF
southern Italy. But 1t is hopeless TO-
attempt to fit the geography OF Homer
to the actual facts. If man were To
search today for the precise spot OH
which Captain Lemuel CULVER was
wrecked in the first of his famous voy.
ages he would find that the Lillput of
Swift was in the heart OF Australia.
and much In the same way. to quote
Mr.. Gladstone's language. 1.-The key to
the great contrast between the outer
geography (of Homer and the facts OF
nature lies in the belief of Homer that
a great sea occupied the space where
we know the heart of the European
continent to lie."
1t is another indication OF the small
ness. of Homer's world that the ten
years war. of which he has given us
