MOTOR AND DYNAMO.
Different In Function. Yet Almost Iden.
tical In Construction.

tcal In Construction.
1t Is very common error TO confuse
motor with dynamo. and but very
few, outside of electrical engineering
circles, can explain the difference be-
tween these two machines The news
paper man writes about the ''dyna-
mos" burning out and setting the
street car on fire or tells of the giant
motors whirling at tremendous
speed in the power house, and very
few realize that a mistake has been
made
To explain in the simplest language.
a dynamo is a machine driven by me
chanical energy. which converts that
mechanical energy into electricity,
another form of energy. a motor Is
a machine that takes the electrical
energy generated by the dynamo and
converts 1t back again into -mechan-
fcal energy And. curiously enough.
the two machines are almost identical
in their construction Indeed. some
dynamos can be operated as motors
and some motors as dynamos without
any change whatever.
Going little into detail. a dynamo,
monty called by electrical men. is
machine consisting of what is called
an armature which is made to revolve
between the poles OF a mas net or
group of magnets. The armature con-
tains a great many loops Of wire,
which cut the lines of magnetic force
which how from one magnet pole to
that of opposite polarity. Although
no one can see how it fs done, 1t is
nevertheless true that this simple proc
ess ca uses a current of electricity to
flow through the wire of the armature,
which may be led out of the latter
through suitable sliding contacts or
brushes and sent cut through the con-
extend many miles The current is
over one wire and back over the other,
keeping up continuous flow through
the armature and outside circuit
There you have the dynamo. 70
operate the dynamo mechanical energy
such as that of a steam engine or
water wheel is required. The more
current you take out of the armature
the harder it is to turn.
Now. If you take a machine similar
to dynamo away out somewhere on
the line and connect its terminals to
the two wires of the circuit the cur
rent which is being generated by the
dynamo flows through the armature
of this second machine, and, 10 and
behold, the armature begins to spin.
There you have the motor, which is
nothing more than dynamo running
backward and using up current in
stead of producing it. Put a pulley on
the shaft of the motor and you get
mechanical power again, which is
what you started out with. That is
why motors are so economical and
convenient where mechanical power is
required. Great dynamos in a power
station generate current in vast guam
titles, which is sent out over the lines
to be used up in motors of all types
and Sizes from a thirty-second of Il
horsepower up to a thousand horse
power, as desired. Now, when you
want to operate a sewing machine by
power you buy little motor to do it.
A few years ago It would have been
necessary for you to put in a boiler
and steam engine.-Electrical News

COATSVlLLE LYNCHlNG.
Chief of Police and Three other Men
are Indicted.

Gainesville, Pa, Sept 20.-The
grand jury that investigated the burn
ing to death of lack Walter, August
10, today returned indictments against
Charles e. Eumsted, chief of police of
Coatesville, and Stanley Howe, a
policeman, charging them with invol-
untary manslaughter, and Richard
Tucker, an insurance agent, and Wal
ter Markward, who are charged with
murder. The two police officers were
admitted to bail of $4,000 each. Tue
ker and Markward were held without
bail
The grand jury held that the chief
of police was lax in his duty the night
of the lynching, and that Policeman
Howe, who was guarding the prisoner
at the hospital from which he was
taken by the mob, made no effort
to prevent the lynchers from getting
their victim. The other two men are
charged with being active spirits in
the mob.
