Bad Gastein, Austria, July 19.-The
spirit of activity of E. H. Hartman,

though his general health is improved,
Hartman has not recovered his ap-
petite and there is great rivalry among
the chefs who shall prepare the dish

hundred employees of the Standard

| turing pressed steel wheels into the

caused the situation here to be re-
garded as serious.
The strikers, it is reported, had
been told that two box cars had been
taken into the plant loaded with out
side Workmen. A rush was made
upon the gates but the heavy doors
refused to yield. The mob used rail
way ties in beating down part of the
fence. The cars were searched, but
found to be loaded with material. The
crowd then dispersed.

became known through strike pick
cts. An alarm was sounded and with.

they rode up the main street

into the ground, 1t was in this clash
that three persons were shot The

said
Thirty supposed strike leaders were
arrested.

gathered on, a hill and held an i'm.
promptu meeting, They were ad
dressed by Father Becavaca, Of the
Catholic church who advised against
violence and bloodshed.
Addressing Sheriff Caldwell, who
stood at the edge of the crowd, Father
Becavaca said:
IF you will take these troops away
] will guarantee there will be no more
violence. The sheriff said the
car company officials had requested
the troops as an attempt would be
made tomorrow to operate the car
plant.
The constabulary established quar-

BICYCLE ROLLER SKATE.
The Tachypod Is Propelled by Weight
cf the Eody.

The Tachypod Is Propelled by Weigh,
of the Body.
The tachyIlod is Il new instrument Of
locoIotion invented by Petrini. a tn.
tor in the University of Upsala, Swe-
den, says the Scientific American. It
is a sort of roller skate with two large
wheels resembling those Of a bicycle.
The wheels are attached t the lower
ends Of two arms which are movable
about the joint which connects their
upper ends. ST that the arms can open
and shut like the blades of a pair of
shears. Above the joint is a plate or
shoe on which the foot of the opera.
tor rests and which is fastened to the
ankle by a brace. When the weight of
the body is allowed to press on the
shoe the wheels and the arms separate
and unwind a wire cable which is
wound on a reel carried by the axle of
the rear wheel. and fastened by one
end to the axle of the front wheel.
When the pressure is removed by
shifting the weight of the body to the
b foot the wheels are brought to-
gether and the cable is wound up by a
spring.
The reel is SO mounted on the axle
that 1t runs loose when the cable is
wound up. but engages with a pawl
and turns the axle when the cable is
unwound-that is. WHEN the wheels
are forced asunder by the weight of
the body. Hence the real wheel acts
as a driving wheel. the source of en-
ergy being the weight of the body.
and as the weight is shifted alternate
~ to the right and the left foot in the
ordinary motion Of walking one or the
other driver is continually in opera
ton and the wearer is impelled for
ward with considerable and nearly
uniform velocity. The inventor has
attained a speed about equal to that of
a good bicyclist.

Modern Paintings Fade.

A prominent French artist, NJ. Paul
Signac, has just asserted that certain
ruin awaits the majority Of modern
paintings. A few artists spare no
pains to obtain pure and durable mate
rails for their pictures. But most
painters purchase ready made prepara-
tons that are chemically adulterated
and must soon fade. "Works l painted
twenty years ago." he says, retain
their freshness because l took the
trouble to obtain pure materials. But
many works of a much more recent
date have already begun to fade. 1t is
deplorable that the great artistic crea-
tons of u epoch should be so evanes-
cent. The position is such that the
majority Of modern artists may be
said to be painting on clouds. The
real colorists will be the first to suffer
from the effectiveness of their mate
rails unless they employ technical
processes that will preserve their col

There Is not a word about the missive

The envelope is always plain and with

fury sets forth his belief in the sue
cess Of any expedition which will sim
ply drift across the north pole. Calcu-
lations based on the drift Of casks con-
vince Mr.. Harrison that he can float
right across the center Of the Arctic
ocean within easy reach Of the pole
and that he will finally emerge some
where near Spitzbergen. He argues
that an expedition when drifting can
house itself in Eskimo huts and that II
can maintain itself by ear of provi-
sions safely cached on the ice. 1t is
his idea to start at Puien island in Oc-
tober Of this year or in 1910. Three
years. supplies are to be placed on the

tor, then fired a salute Of sixteen
guns.
One Of the interesting parts Of this
function was the presentation to the
new Clermont by Eben E. Olcot, chair.
man Of the committee having the con.
struction Of the vessel in charge, of
the bell used on the original Clermont.
Robert Underwood Johnson read q
poem written by him especially for
this occasion.
The replica Of the Clermont is as
nearly the duplicate Of the original as
the commission could build from the
plans noted in some Of Fulton's own
letters. She is $50 feet long, 10 feet
wide, Z feet deep and draws 8 feet Of
water. Her sides are almost straight
up and down, and both ends are wedge
shaped. She will be equipped with a
replica Of the old engine and make her
trip up the Hudson to Albany under
her own steam.
The difficulty of determining the ex-
act dimensions and equipment Of the
Clermont was great, and it was only
through the efforts of the late Rear
Admiral Joseph B. Coghlan, naval con-
structor; William ]. Baxter, q. 8. NJ;
Captain Jacob W. Miller, MI. Eben
