So-caIIed prv Battery.

The so-called dry battery is an cleo
trio cell really containing a liquid or
paste whose drying out-as on stand
ing on a shelf destroys the useful
mess of the battery; but unique new
battery cell, called the anhydrous, is
dry until put to use, SO that it may
Ibe kept in store indefinitely without de-
preciation. It simply contains the
necessary chemicals in a dry state. A
little water poured through special
Opening puts it in action, and then, be
ginning perfectly new and fresh, it
serves the usual purpose of the dry
battery.

A CCMMENCABLE MOVEMENT

Mrs. Russell Sage's decision to de-
vote large part of her great fortune
to establishing throughout the coun-
try facilities whereby the honest poor
man can borrow money in emergency

WELDING BY ELECTRIC ARC
Its Success Has Led to Formation Of
Three Companies in Different
E Parts Of Sweden.

The success of welding by electric
arc has led to the formation of three
welding companies, in different parts
of Sweden, and one at Gothenburg has
placed Its plant on an old barge that
can be towed alongside any steamer
needing repairs. The outfit, as de-
scribed by A. Scott Younger, in
cludes small marine boiler with a
De Laval turbine, working two direct
current dynamos. Duplicate cables
can reach on board the steamer and to
the inside of the boilers if necessary,
and make it practicable to do repairs
in two places at once. One end of the
barge has workshop, with anvil and
wise benches and full equipment for
small repairs. The anvil block is
steel slab 1917 inches wide by 211
deep, supported on two wooden
trestles, and the negative from the
dynamo is clamped to it, the positive
being the holder - with insulated
handle held in the operators left hand.
The current passes through the jaws
holding the specially Sprepared rod
three-sixteenths inch in diameter
used for welding. The pieces to be
welded with chamfered edges are Sc
cured in position on the anvil block,
the rod is touched to the point to be
welded and slightly withdrawn, and
the electric arc thus formed quickly
melts the end of the rod, causing a
drop from it to adhere to the work.
This is hammered and the process re-
peated. A great variety of work can
be done, and in butt welding practi-
cal rate for three-eighths-inch plates is
about ten feet an hour.

Axle Train Lighting System.

A new axle train lighting system has
recently been devised, in which the
generator is located in the baggage car
Of the train. The generator is placed
in the body of the car, where it is
open to inspection at any time, and it
is driven by belts from the axle Of
one of the trucks. The belts are made
self-adjusting, so as to take up slack
due to the fexing of the springs. A
storage battery which is charged by
the dynamo serves to furnish current
for the lights when the train is stand

the wind wheel rises, and once the
minimum dynamo speed is reached an
automatic device connects the battery
up and it begins to charge. When the
wind ceases to such an extent that the
power generated is not enough to
force current into the battery the con-
nection is automatically broken until
the wind rises again.
A wind of about six miles an hour
causes current to be generated, and
the plant has been tested up to a gale
of 60 miles an hour with perfect regu-
lation. The power generated increases
enormously, of course, as the wind in
creases.
