A WONDERFUL CLOCK.

All the movements of the earth are
represented by a remarkable astron-
omical clock which has been placed
on public view at the American
museum of natural science. 1t was
designed by DIR. Herman c. Bumpus,
director of the institution, and is the
result of months of patient experiment.
1t not only shows the daily rotation of
the earth upon its axis but the motion
about the sun and also demonstrates
through all the year the changes
which caused the march of the sea-
sons. The earth is globe of paper
composition four feet in diameter,
while the sun is stereopticon placed
at distance of 10 feet. The stere-
opticon shines on the sphere in such
a manner as to illuminate half of it at
one time. The shadow of the wire
which is back of the lens corresponds
to the meridian of New York. The
earth is caused to revolve by means of
a shaft which derives its power from
small clock. This shaft passes
through a wooden tunnel and COM
municates its power to bevel gears,
which cause the sphere to be always
changing its poise.
By watching the meridian shadow
the observer can always tell the time
of day with more mathematical accu-
racy.
No device of its kind has ever been
exhibited in a museum for instruction
of the public and this astronomical
clock rivals in its accuracy and in the
painstaking way in which it is con-
structed the most delicate instruments
to be seen in well equipped observa-
tories. The contrivance was con-
structed by Al H. Hers, an expert
machinist connected with the mu-
scum.

GOOD ROAD CONGRESS.
Purpose and Features of the lnterna-
tional Gathering at Paris.

uonat 1athering at Paris-
Colonel Charles S. Bromwell, Cliff
ford Richardson and William Page
have been appointed by President
Roosevelt to represent the United
States at the International road con-
gress to be held in Paris during Octo-
Der, 1908.
Napoleon was a great advocate of
road building and since his time
France has spent between $500,000.-
900 and $600000,000 ON her highways.
The advent Of the automobile has
proved a serious menace to the sur
face of the roads, and the purpose of
this congress is to hear opinions of
experts on the subject and to con-
dense them into practical idea of the
treatment and care of the surface of
a road.
This congress, to which the govern
ments of the various nations have
been officially invited to appoint rep
resentatives, will be opened Oct. II
and will be in session seven days.
1t is proposed during the life of the
congress to give several festivals In
Paris and also excursions. one par
ticularly to Nice. to enable the men,
bers to visit especially fitted up roads
or roads in course of preparation.
The United States government has
made several tests at Washington late
~, principally by taking photographs
of the clouds of dust raised by each
automobile. going at different rates
of speed at from five to sixty miles
an hour. These dust clouds were
weighed in order to determine how
much of the surface of the road was
taken off by motor going at an ex-
cessive rate of speed. This point and
number of others which have been
ascertained by the government of the
United States undoubtedly will be
brought to the attention of the con-
gress by one of the American repre-
sentatives. and it is more than likely
that Colonel Bromwell will read a pa

Probably in Constantinople, which
has been described as the "city of hoy

tween the public and private buildings
than in any other city in the world.
The streets are narrow. tortuous and
dirty, and even the better class of pri-

with those of similar class in other
countries. On the other hand, the

found. This has not been proved to be
the case. becau.e n many localities the
only oil available possesses a petroleum
rather than an asphaltum base. 1t
has been found that when the vola-
tile portion evaporates the oil left be-
hind becomes greasy and similar in
consistency to vaseline. Such quality
of oil does not adhere and bind the
road. but is picked up and scattered
by passing traffic.

THEIR HOLDINGS SAFE.
Palo Verde Valley Settlers Secure Un- der Decision of Commissioner of
 General Land Office.

Settlers in the Palo Verde Valley who have feared lest their holdings be taken away from them upon a tech nicality of the government land law, have received assurance from the To- cal Land Office, that they will be fully protected in their claims. Commits sioner of the General Land Office Den- net confirms the judgment of the To- cal office.
 According to it's ruling, persons un- able to complete their improvements because of floods, will have additional time in which to comply with the Land Office regulations.
 The case just decided was that of William H. German, who made des- ert land entry in the Palo Verde Val ley in 1902 Final proof was made in 1906. The entryman asked for three years more in which to make proof because of adverse conditions. The report of the special agent showed that during the first year Berman cleared off twenty acres and the second year cultivated the same and constructed ditches. A pumping plant was in stalled, bur in 1905 the overflow came and the rancher lost his pumping plant and his ditches were ruined.
 Commissioner Dennet states that the showing made by the entryman is ample to establish his claim for more time in which to complete his work The entryman is allowed to withdraw his proof and the tract. entry will be held intact to await the submission of fresh proofs of improvements.
 There are number of similar cases in the same section and Gen. Prescott states that they will receive the bene- fit of this ruling-Los Angeles Times.
