For the forced draft equipment OF
the United States battlesh1ps Della
ware and North Dakota twenty-eight
turbine fans, each with a capacity OF
$4,000 cubic feet a minute, have been
built at the Troy works Of the Sirocco
Engineering company.
Although only twenty-seyen inches
in diameter, the fourteen Sirocco tur-
bine fans to be installed on each OF
the United States Dreadnoughts sup
ply $4,000 cubic feet Of air every
minute to keep the fires roaring under
the boilers of these monster war YES
sells. It Is an enormous output for
their small size that has led to the
adoption Of this type Of fan on all the
principal transatlantic liners, In Euro
pean navies and now by the United
States naval authorities. The fans
are built on the same principle as a
steam turbine and consist OF q
squirrel cage" drum surrounded by
sixty or more narrow blades.

WHERE DID CASTRO GET IT7
MonopoIies and Foreign interests the
Sources Of the Venezuelan Presi-
DANTE European Bank Deoosits.

MonopoIies and Foreign Interests the
Sources of the Venezuelan Presi-
dents European Bank Deposits.
Estimates Of the amount Of money
that President Castro Of Venezuela
thrlftily deposited in Europe prior to
his fight vary all the way from $1O,-
100000 to S%6O,OOO,000. Where did he
get it? Is the natural question. Most
Of his wealth has come from monopo-
lies out Of which he has received the
lions share. The latest and one OF
the most ingenious Of these monopo-
lies was the sole right to butcher cat
tie. This was said to produce a net
income Of $4,000 a day, as thHi.cattle
raisers we're forced to sell their ami
mails for almost nothing In the absence
of competition.
Foreigners Of all nations, as we'll as
the Venezuelans, have contributed to
Castro's European bank deposits.
After four years Of exploitation the
receiver" Of the New York andRermu-
dez company's asphalt property turned
into the Venezuelan treasury only 3d.
900 as the net proceeds Of four years
sales, amounting to about half a MIL
lion dollars at the mine. All but 3d.
600 Of this sum, the receiver stated,
was absorbed by Expenses and Inn
provements." The receiver" neglect
ed to mention the profits derived from
the sale Of the asphalt here. Added to
the half million dollars charged to "ex.
penses and improvements" the profits
made on the sale Of refined asphalt
make an enormous sum, which has
been divided between Castro and his
American business associates.
But the cattle and asphalt gratis are
only samples Of the sources from
which Castro has enriched himself at
the expense of his own people and for
eign interests in Venezuela.

POWER OF WATER.
Under Certain Conditions II 10 Prae.

Under Certain Conditions Il ls Prae.
tieaIIy Irresistible.
When q man goes in swimming at
the seashore and slaps the water forci-
bly, with his hand or takes q back dive
from a pier and lands squarely on his
back he realizes that the. unstable
liquid offers not a little resistance.
Yet, says a writer in the New York
Tribune. it would surprise almost any
body to see what water will do under
certain conditions.
A stream from q 1reman's hose will
knock a man down. The jet from q
nozzle used in placer mining in the
west eats away a large piece Of land
in a day, toys with great powders as
II they were pebbles and would shoot
q man ove the country as though he
were a p~rojectile from a cannon.
There is a story Of an eastern black
smith who went west and made a bet
that he could knock a hole through
the Jet Of n Of these nozzles with a
sledge hammer. He lifted his arms,
swung the sledge and came down on
the ten inch stream with a force that
would have dented an anvil. But, the
jet, never penetrated, whisked the
massive hammer out Of the black
smiths hands and tossed it several
hundred feet away into the debris Of
gold bearing gravel beneath a crum-
bling cliff. After this the blacksmith
left out iron when he spoke Of hard
substances.
There is also a power plant near
Durango, Colo, where q United States
cavalryman one day thought he had
an easy job in cutting a two inch
stream with his sword. He made q
valiant attack. The result was that
his sword was shivered In two and
his wrist broken.
A little thinner jet Of water descend
ing 1,600 feet to a mandatory at
Grenoble, Spain, and travelling at the
moderate speed Of 100 yards a second
fractures the best blades Of Toledo.
OF course some people will not be-
lieve such stories without having seen
the thing, and one may think it a proof
OF the scientific imagination to say
that an inch thick sheet of water, pro-
vided it had sufficient velocity, would
ward off bombshells as well as steel
plate. H. h. m,
Nevertheless many persons while
travelling have seen a brakeman put a
small hydraulic jack under one end
Of Pullman a and lift twenty tons
or 80 by a few leisurely strokes Of the
pump handle, and the experience Of
riding every day in a hydraulic ele-
vator tends to remove doubts Of the
magic power possessed by water hitch.
