Modern Car Wheel I.athcs.

think II will be safe to say that
the output OF the best American
lathes averaged six pairs OF wheels
per day fully ten years ago. This
was when using tool steel Of the
variety. Since the advent
of the hlgh-speed tool steel the de-
signers Of the United States have
brought up their machine tools from
year to year TO a constantly higher
state OF efficiency. until the best
lathes we're probably averaging IL
pairs of wheels per day five years
ago. Within the past two or three
years this output has been steadily
increased by improvements in de-
sign and methods OF handling, until
at the present time many railroads
are equipped with lathes turning
out from 16 to 20 pairs OF 36-inch
wheels in 10 hours. these outputs
being readily obtainable with tires
of all the standard makes of Eng
land. Germany and America.-Cass-

THE NILE.
Il is of a Lovely Sameness Every
where.

Some people talk OF the same
ness" of the Nile: and there is
lovely sameness of golden light. OF
delicious air. of people, and of
scenery. For Egypt is, after all,
mainly a great river with strips on
each side of cultivated land, fiat
green. not very varied. River, green
plains. yellow plains, pink, brown,
steel gray. or pale yellow mountains,
wall of shadoof. wall of sakieh. Yes,
| suppose there is a sameness, a sort
of golden monotony. in this land
pervaded with light and pervaded
with sound. Always there is light
around you. and you are bathing in
il. and nearby always, If you are
living. as l was, on the water, there
is multitude of mingling sounds
floating. floating to your ears. AS
there are two lines of green land,
two lines of mountains following the
course of the Nile. so are there two
lines of voices that cease their call
ing and their singing only as you
draw near to Nubia.
For then. with the green land,
they fade away, these miles upon
miles of calling and singing brown
men; and amber and rudy sands
creep downward TO the Nile. And
the air seems subtly changing, and
the light perhaps growing a little
harder. And you are aware of other
regions unlike those you are leaving.
more African, more savage, less
suave. less like dreaming. And
especially the silence makes a great
impression on you. But before you
enter this silence. between the am
Der and rudy walls that will lead
you on TO Nubia and to the land OF
the crocodile, you have a visit to
pay. For here. high up on ter
race. is Kom Ombos. And Kom On
hos is the temple Of the crocodile
god.-R. Kitchens. in the Century.

Ty Cobb has been reviled more
than any other player in baseball.
lie is called "chesty." swell
head" "grandstand player" a
numbering base runner" and other
names enough for a stranger to the
game of baseball to think the great
ball player to be a dyed-in-the-wool
rufiian of the worst stripe.
Now. Cobb is "chesty," "cocky
and fresh" but those are the quail
ties that make the best ball players.
Cobb was the freshest kid who ever
broke into the big leagues class, is
what every Detroit player says who
was with the Tigers when Cobb first
Joined them. But Il was that chesti-
ness and nothing else that enabled
him to climb 20 the top OF the pro.
fession where he stands pre-eminent
now. and there will be no one 70
push him on that high pinnacl,
until he himself says so.
And what is "chestiness" but the
feeling one has that one is just as
good II not better than anyone else
in the line Of business one follows?
Cobb felt it in his youthful bones
that he was rs good a player as any
one on the Detroit team. and made
good the feeling imbued in him that
caused the expansion OF chest he Is
accused Of. "Chestiness" is one OF

the most promising traits young
ster can show, and he does not want
TO lose It either as he gets older.
Cobb's brain expands with his
chest. lie knew at the start. and
he knows now. that he is as good
as they make EN-, and. therefore.
why wouldn't he expand. mentally
and physically?
All this knocking Of Cobb comes
from nothing else than pure and UNI
adulterated jealousy. II Is a case OF
sour grapes every time.

NEW CHIMES
AND INSTALLED
TODAY.
Hours unsteady Recorded by Eiec-
tricity at J. L.. VOLTS Jewclry
Store.

The work OF Installing the new
electrical Cathedral Chimes In front
of the jewelry store OF J. l.. Woln
was completed today by Mr.. IL. {.
Korfhage, OF Louisville, the maker.
The deep, full tones OF the massive
bronze tubes may be heard for
blocks and are proving constant
surprise and delight to passersby'
IL is interesting TO note that the
second set OF electrically operated
chimes In the United states Is To-
Gated right here In J. l.. Woln 3
jewclry store and that the other Is
located In Kentucky also-at the
Seelbach In Louisville.
The mechanism Is extremely sim
pie. Every 10 minutes, exactly on
the slxtieth second. a contact Is
made which. In return, actuates
solenoid which cuts in small motor
on the lighting circuit, operating
the hammers which strike the tubes.
The complete mechanism cost $3.50
and is regarded by mechanics who
have examined II as a masterpiece
The installation OF these chimes
Is only one OF a series of improve
monts aud alterations which are
under way az the handsome store AZ
l327 broadway and. when they are
completed. II will be a store oil
which all west Kentucky. as well az

Mr.. Willis Morgan has in his pcs
session a vegetable freak, which was
raised on the farm of his son. II. b.
Sander Twin potatoes of two en-
tirely different varieties, one a round
red skinned potato. the other long

Woman Justices of the Peace.

Although, as Lord Halsbury told
the royal commission on justices Of
the peace, he has never made a wo-
man a magistrate lady Justices were
not uncommon centuries ago. The
countess of Richmond. mother OF
Henry VII, was one. and according
to Noy, the Encouragement to
Charles /. decided many important
cases. There Is also the instance Of
Lady Bartlett, who was made a JUS
tice by Queen Mary. and sat on the
bench in GloucesteTshire, and that
of Lady Berkeley, who. under ex-
traordinary circumstances, became
Judge in her own cause. She COM
planned to Henry VIII that certain
people had killed her deer and done
damage to her property. So that
susceptible monarch Immediately
granted her a special commission
under the great seal to hear and de-
termine these misdemeanors and
made her one of the commissioners
of the quorum. She then returned
to Gloucester. opened the commits
sion. sat on the bench in the public
sessions hall. impaneled a jury. who
found the prisoners guilty. after
which she pronounced exemplary

MANUEL.

King Manuel, of Portugal, is
fugitive. Manuel is better on. When
he gets used to it he will sleep bet
ter O. nights. and he may marry
whomsoever he pieases. We have no
concern about his financial condi-
tons. Most kings haven't much
sense, we take It; but most Of them
generally go into exile well heeled q.
There Is no particular honor, any
way, in sitting supinely on a throne
by virtue of being the Inbred scion
of a bastard line. He had no power,
simply a name by which others exer-
cised power. Great wrongs were done
the people OF the country in his
name. Perhaps, 1t wasn't his fault;
he didn't know they were being
done; he probably wouldn't have the
intelligence to right them If he knew
of them. Those. who have the bring
ing up and control of royalty, do not
encourage the initiative of their
wards. The temptation TO use roy
atty for their own ends is too great.
SO we can't see what Manuel has
been deprived of excepting a lot OF
trouble. He got out of fhe mess
alive, which Is much to be thankful
for. when one considers the situation
in all its possibilities. ThaJ Is why
we say Manuel is better of.

toned and condemned thai same sort
of piety some eighteen hundred years
before Ebert, and gave expression
to a great deal of valuable philoso-
ply. which would well repay the con
sheraton of those, who find them
selves deluded by the more vigorous
than profound utterances of the sage
of East Aurora.
Carlisle has well said that
strength Is the measure of all
worth. and he wisely modifies ii by
the phrase, "well understood" In
stead of deifying those elemental in
stincts of self-preservation and ego
ism. which a wise Creator has i'm
planted in every plant and animal for
the perpetuation of species, they
should be subordinated 20 the uses
for which they were intended; for
from these instincts springs all the
selfish desires and vices Of mankind.
Strength and courage are better
exemplified in subordinating the
brute instincts and restraining ele-
mental passions. than In the acquisi-
ton and achievement of their desires.
The courage that sends soldier
into battle is not the same courage
that impels a lion to fight for his
food. The former is of the self-sac-
rificing character. true crucifxion
OF self; the latter is but the despera-
ton of brute. whose natural eau
ton is overcome by the demands of
appetite.
1t is true. a hungry lion will fight
more valiantly and against greater
odds than a full one: so will a hun
CRY highwayman: ergo, according to
the Hubbard philosophy, a hungry
highwayman is the highest type of
man, and we are immortal only when
we are desperate.
We have known men, who became
rich and politically powerful because
they had neither the strength nor
the courage TO remain poor. OF forego
ambitions realized at the expense of
honor. The man, who gets rich by
immoral means, though he be ruth
less and ruggedly intellectual. mani
ifests the strength and courage of the
hungry lion. not the strength and
courage of the soldier; for he prob
ably had not the courage to undergo
the hardships of poverty and "slings
and arrows of outrageous fortune
when tempted by the certainty oi
material gain. Yet, only he of al
men knows how unsatisfying Is such
success; for he has soul which
makes but a poor obeisance % q

woRsHIPPING THE INSTINCTS.

WORSHIPPING THE INSTINCTS.
Savage man was won, when he
had run across something he could
not understand, to call 1t God at
discretion and give it a niche in his
ever growing pantheon. Perhaps, ii
is his inordinate regard for print
tive impulses. as opposed to social
conventions, that induces his con-
duct; but we find Ebert Hubbard.
Immediately he has discovered the
personal devll", falling down and
worshipping it.
Ebert, we learn from his own lips,
has found that under the conven-
lions of society and the glib profess
sions of religion, human nature still
turks within us; and instincts, that
link us TO the earth among the
plants and lower animals, refuse TO
desert this mortal tenement OF clay,
despite the struggles for spiritual
ideals. Therefore, says Ebert. here
IL Truth and right. and he flippantly
restates with all the assurance of
epigraml what philosophers before
him cautiously defined: Strength
and strengths will are the supreme
ethic."
Carlisle says that Strength, well
understood. Is the measure OF all
worth. and so. we must accord to
Gilbert credit neither for the genius
that expresses for US thoughts we
have long cherished. nor for original
ity, the essence Of which is sincerity.
Ebert mistakes the nature of
strength. and reminds US Of the man,
who having heard for the first time
the theory OF evolution. was ready to
dispense with a Creator in favor of
the original protoplasm. until some
one asked him who made the prOto-
plasm. Ebert says We must work
for ourselves, because II Is our ma
ture: self-sacrifce and abnegatlon
are signs of weakness and cowardice;
and he assures us that even the pious
saint takes a natural egotigtic de-
light in his own piety. Marvellous OBJ

Cases Of poison by jimson weed arise
In adults from excessive use as a sum

sometimes tempted to eat the fruit il
they are permitted 60 play where the
weed Is TO be found Several cases
Of that kind we're reported 10 the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
during the fab Of 1897. At Alpena,
Mica, five children were badly poison
ed in August by eating the seeds Of
the purple-flowered species, which
were cultivated in a garden as a Gu
rsosity under the fanciful trade name
Of "night-blooming cactus" Children
are also poisoned by sucking the flow
er or playing with it in the mouth.
The fresh leaves and also the root
have occasionally been cooked by mis-
take for other wild edible plants. One
OF two instances are recorded in
which cattle have been poisoned by
eating the leaves of young pants
which were present in grass hay.
