that his engine will require no more coal than the engine of slow freight CT and cost even less to build. The wonderful engine at first sight seems very little different from the recipro- eating engine now in use, but each engine does work in two directions at once--as each cylinder is provided with two pistons and two piston rods, two cranks and two shafts being pro- vided.
 The enormous advantage of this is that all shock due to the work done ill one direction is counteracted by that done in the opposite direction and in consequence it is possible to run a 75 horsepower engine on an ordinary table at full speed without any fixtures so smooth is the running. The engine or rather it's principle can be equally we'll applied to gasoline motors in which case the wear and tear would be reduced to minimum and if applied to automobiles all viz bration would be done away.

LONDON LETTER

London. October 4.--In the midst of hard times new club. the Optimisfs Club, has been formed in London. It i consists of those who acknowledge the duty or cheerfulness and who make
 a p&int of looking at the bright side iol everything. One of the founders Of
 the club, the bearer of one Of En-
 Slands proudest names said yester-
 day: Something must be done to icpunteract the prevailing tendency to-
 wards taking gloomy views Most clubs here are in reality, if not in

\ perfect wave of elopements has
 swept over the country during the
 past two or three years Many of
 these marriages being nothing more or
 less than escapades, they have in
 brief time appeared in the divorce
 courts. In some cases where mere children have dared to enter secretly into Wedlock, parents have interfeled and separated the would-be husbands and wives. This is a serious natter. and one fraught with many grave pro- blems as to what is best to do in such cases. The lives of both parties to a clandestlne marriage are usually wrecked by the foolish marriage. School girls and boys getting into au- tomobiles and hying themselves off to some county seat or city hail where they can obtain license and find some one authorized to perform the marriage service is of all too frequent occurrence.
 Not long ago a boy and a girl took a trolley ride out to Rockville. the county seat of Montgomery County. Maryland, obtained license and found some one who was wicked enough to marry them. They then went to confectioner bought some candy and sat down near the track and waited for car to return to Washington. They each returned to their respective homes and thought to keep their marriage a secret. The mother of the young bride, being dis satisfied with her daughters expla- nation of her disappearance from home, insisted upon being told the truth as to where she had been and who was with her, and finally sue ceeded in getting the whole story. The father of the boy groom was in formed of the facts and was so out ragged and indignant that the boy ran away, and both families were over with grief over the affair.

BY MRS. JOHN A. LOGAN

Washington, Oct. 3.-Ncxt to diyor- ees, of which they are Frequently the forerunners, opponents are the most deplorable events in the line of matri- mony. There have been happy mar ridges in which elopements figured but permanent happiness rarely.
 A man who suggests elopement to the girl or woman whom he wishes to marry has not that keen sense of man. Illness, honor and discretion which would eventually overcome opposition to the consummation of his desires if he would wait and prove to the friends of the one he would make his wife that he would be a worthy husband.
 There is no excuse that can be offered by young or old people that justifies entering into the sacred reIa- tions of marriage under circumstances attending '"runaway' affairs. There is lack of dignity and appreciation of the solemnity of the holy ordinance on the part of persons who marry clan (estinely. When parents or guardians oppose the marriage of any two per- sons, there is always grounds for such opposition, and persons who defy those who love them best and wilfully disre- gard expressed opposition, almost in- varibly have occasion to repent of their folly. If true love is at the bot tom of the desire to marry, the par ties most interested can afford to wait until all opposition disappears In the meantime they may discover that what they supposed was undying love for each other was hallucination, and that they are i'll suited for each other. Married in haste, one may repent at leisure is an adage as old as the language we use.

Washington is veritable Gretna Green for Maryland, Virginia, and the Carolinas. Scarcely day passes that does not bring couples from these States who come to Washington to be married and see the sights of the Capi- tai City.

CURRENCY DEBATE

MARX SMITH, delegate in Congress from
AVA Arizona, occupies, as all territorial dele
gates in the House of Representatives have
occupied, the unique position OF being able
to discuss matters of legislation on the floor
without the authority to vote on them.
When the Vreeand currency bill was under
consideration in the House, Mr. Smith notified
the leaders that he desired to talk against it,
and added that he was only too sorry that he
couldn't vote against it as well
This bill, in my Judgment he said to a
group of Democratic associates in one of the
House cloak rooms. "offers a plethora of
faults and paucity Of virtues, and if l was
general worth, l should repeat a brief but
eloquent sentence that came to my attention

ago 1t was during. the dangerous. pioneer
days, and was riding horseback from old
Mexico through forested section OF the
country, when my mount suddenly SHE'D. l
had been more or less preoccupied when TIE
horse veered, but looking round quick,
/ espied suspended from a nearby limb the
body of man, evidently that of plainsman
and probably that of lawbreaker. l rode
round it carefully for a few moments: but
was unable to recognize the mans features.
However, my attention was attracted to a
placard pinned to the mans coat. rode
closer and was able to decipher it. 1t said:
go This was very bad man in some respects
but blamed sight worse in Others
&c." concluded Mr.. Smith, that's the
view take of the Vreeland bill. That placard
told the story, and tells it now, succinctly
and convinClngly.

RIDING THE cHAUTAUQUA

THE citizens Of a Georgia city Of ten thou
sand people arranged for Chautauqua
assembly last summer They held the meet
ings in a big tent a mile from town. The at
tendance was large from the first day.
An enterprising circus man heard of the
large crowds, and located steam merry-go-
round halfway between the town and the
Chautauqua grounds. Along in the afternoon
young man from the country, coming from
the direction of the Chautauqua, was accosted
by citizen who knew him. Well, Ezry, sup

SOME LANGUAGE STATISTICS

IT is estimated by the most competent au-
= thorities that there are no less than five
thousand distinct languages spoken by man
kind. The number Of separate dialects is
enormous. For instance, there are more than
sixty distinct voca bularies in Brazil alone, and
in Mexico the Nahua tongue has been broken
up into seven hundred dialects: Then too
there are hundreds of dialects in Borneo; and
In Australia the complexities of the linguistic
problem are beyond classification.
1t is said that generally the number Of dia-
lects decreases with the intellectual culture
OF the population: If, it is pointed out, there
is an average of fifty dialects to every language,
we still have the stupendous total OF two hun
bred and fifty thousand.

VALUABLE SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE

VALUABLE SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE
THE remarkable botanical knowledge of Sir
George Birdwood, one of the most erudite
men in the Indian service, once enabled him to
perform almost unconsciously a neat bit of
detective work.
He was in Bombay when he was asked to in
vestigate the case of a young nobleman who.
in applying to the Governor for an appoint
ment, represented that he was just out from
England and his letters of introduction had
been lost on the voyage.
A few days after Birdwood had undertaken
the investigation he met the young nobleman
at dinner at the Governors house. The table
decorations of orchids suggested a converse
tional opening. and Birdwood's praise drew
from the young nobleman sitting opposite:
- You should see the .Amherstia nobilis in its
native woods sir.
1t was a fatal remark You come from
Rangoon, then" instantly exclaimed Bird
wood.
The pale face, the silence that followed the
remark. the request of the young man that he
might leave the table. all prepared the Gov
ernor and the company for the subsequent dis
covery that the young man had absconded
from Rangoon with public funds.

from the competition of the 'dntoetreur, a

their fortunes in foreign countries, and already
they have arrived by hundreds in the United

"A SHINE. BOSS ="

FROM the prevalence of this custom in Italy
and Greece it seems likely that either Of
these countries is the home of the street shoe
blacks. Even to-day the stranger who peace
fully sips his coffee at an Italian cafe is first
surprised, then indignant, at the crowds of
loeblacks by which he is suddenly surrounded
Reproachfully they point at his dusty shoes
and offer him their services. The turning
away OF one will not prevent dozen others
from making the same offer.
In Greece it is even worse. From early in
the morning till late at night the frequented
streets and public places of Athens are in
tested with hordes of ragged urchins; for the
true Greek, owing to the dusty mostly I'M
paved streets of Athens, must have his shoes
shined from three to six times a day. Most
of these shoeblacks have come from Crete;
but also Persians are found among them
In France the custom of shoeblacking in the
street has been introduced from Piedmont.
Until the eighteenth century in France, as
well as in other countries, shoeblacking was
done in the house; but during the French
Revolution many Piedmontese came to Paris
and shined shoes in the street. In England
the shoeblack was improved by an admixture
of fat, and even to-day the shining backing is
called in France, eirdge Anglaise.'
When in 1860, Savoy was annexed to France.

THE GLUTTONOUs SPIDER

A NATURALIST attached to one OF Uncle
n Sans scientific bureaus at Washington
asserts that the spider, which is always rep
resented as having tremendous appetite. is
by no means maligned IN this. respect, mas
much as its gormandizing dehes all human
competition.
This scientists Investigations show that a
spiders consumption of food within twenty
four hours. if he was built a human scale.
would approximately be something like this:
At daybreak a small alligator; by seven
A. M, lamb; by nine A. M, a young antelope
by one o'clock, a sheep; and at dinner time
about one hundred and twenty small chicken
pies.
