A Mammoth Stone Crusher.

From lions Herald.
A mammoth stone crusher. said to be
the largest in the world, which is now in
operation in South Pittsburg, Tenn. at ~
cement plant, Is able to take rocks as
large as 3 by > by 10 feet and crush them
to 6-inch size at the rate of 500 tons
per hour-a remarkable feat when 1t Is
considered that the rock so reduced Is
hard and tough limestone. The machine
the hopper is 20 feet In diameter. with
fairly steep sides. to facilitate the
feeding of the stone from all sides by
gravity. The crusher belongs to the 'sus-
pended type of the machine, the gyra-
tory shaft on which the head is mounted
being suspended from a spider at the up
per end of the crusher. The shaft is sup
ported in the hub of the spider In such
d manner that II may osciilate slightly.
The lower end of the shaft is formed with
an eccentric bushing, which engages an
eccentric ring. The latter carries bevel
gear. which meshes with bevel pinion
on the driving shaft As the driving
shaft is rotated, the eccentric serves to
impart a gyratory motion to the shaft.
The crushing head. which Is supported on
this shaft, is conical in form, with a
corrugated surface. The gyratory motion
of the head produces powerful crushing
motion. The eccentric of the machine
operates in a reservoir of oil, to prevent
friction and reduce the wear of parts to
a minimum. The top shell of the crusher
was made in two pieces, in order to bring
it within limits of railroad transportation.

The ueyotees Of aquatics at the hilltop
institution were made glad this morning.
when il was definitely announced that
Harry Vail. coach of last years varsity,
and the man mostly responsible for the
great record made by the props. had been
engaged to coach the embryo coilegians
from March l until after the American
Henley race the latter part of July. AL
though his services will be given pri-
marily TO the props. he will nevertheless
help both the freshman and varsity
crews in return for the favor which the
varsity did to the props last season in
allowing him to spend time in training
them.
1t may surprise some why follower
of Georgetown should engage the man
to look after The preps. but the idea
which he is following out is that the
only way to get winning eight is to
start at the bottom and build up. and
hence he is going to begin by develop
ing men in the prep school with the idea
of keeping them at the hilltop school
for their college course. 1t is limited

NEW ORLEANS RACE
MEETING CLOSED

NEW ORLEANS, January 23.-After
Suburban Park, in Jefferson parish,
across the Mississippi river from New
Orleans. yesterday was closed. at least
temporarily. The announcement of the
suspension was made at the conclusion
of the fourth race, shortly after John
Sheehan of Memphis, a bookmaker, had
been arrested on the charge of violat-
ing the Locke anti-racing law.
Sheehan's arrest followed a Geographic
order from Gov. Sanders to the district
attorney of jefferson parish. The tele-
gram said that unless the betting on
horse races at McDonoghville. as Well
as the gambling at Southport. are stop
ped Immediately l shall take d hand
myself"
The governors order was sent at the
conclusion of a conference with the ad-
jutant general Of the state. In view of
this conference, turfmen. Jefferson par
ish officers and the public surmise that
if the governors orders were disobeyed
troops would be sent both to the Sub
urban Park track at McDonoghville, as
well as to Southport poolrooms.
District Attorney Marrero of Jeffer-
son parish held a consultation with
friends as soon as the governors order
came. and at the conclusion of the third
race Sheriff Marrero. father OF the dis
trict attorney. had Sheehan and his
clerk. w. f. Ralston, arrested. They
will be arraigned before a justice of the
peace in jefferson parish today. Their
trial in the district court Of Jefferson
parish will probably follow next Mon
day.
The contention of the race manage
ment is that Sheehan and others mere
ly pay the Suburban Racing Associa-
ton s12 day for advance informa-
ton" This is a card showing the
scratches, correct weights. etc, on each
race. They say that when Sheehan and
others make wagers with friends the
Locke law is not violated. 1t is their
desire to make a test of the case in the
courts.

RACQUET TITLE HOLDERS WIN.
Fearing and Scott Beat Waterbury
and Johnson in Doubles at Boston.


BOSTON. January 23.-Two interesting
matches were played in the opening
| round of the United States amateur dou-
bes racquet championship tournament at
| the Tennis and Racquet Club yesterday.
In the contest between George r. Fear
ing, jr., and ii. d. Scott of this city,
present holders of the title, and Lawrence
Waterbury and D. Johnson Of New York
1t was only by a splendid rally that the
champions were able to stave off defeat
After losing the first game, Waterbury
and Johnson won three in succession,
chiefly through the great service and
court covering of the former. Then Fear
ing and Scott braced and through the
deceptive service of the former and the
brilliant placing of the latter took the
remaining three games. The match be-
tween p D. Haughton and NJ Hereford
of Boston and G. G. Clark. jr.. and George
