on the question OF boxing competitions
at the olympic games to be held in Ber-

eventually adopted providing that the
weights OF the contestants be taken in
Kilograms and reducing the number of
the classes Of boxers to six. instead Of
the original eight.
II was decided to create an inter
national boxing federation to control

HARNESS FORCES OF NATURE
Hitched to working
Machinery.

In several ingenious ways the forces OF
nature are now exploited in order to pro-
vide power for machinery necessary for
various human activities. Such apparR-
tus Is especially favored by engineers,
for not only can enormous power be OBJ
tAined. but the running expenses are ex-
tremely low One Of the most ingenious
of these inventions is that which OBJ
tains power from the rays OF the sun.
The apparatus Is at work in Egypt,
where It pumps up water onto high levels
in thousands OF gallons.
This novel device consists OF number
of reflecting mirrors which concentrate
the rays OF the sun on to glass
covered trough containing water. In a
short space of time this water becomes
sufficiently heated by the reflection from
the mirrors to give off steam, which
passes into a pipe to an engine OF the
usual steam variety. When some thirty
or forty of these heating boxes are boil
ing water by means OF the suns heat II
is obvious that sufficient steam-power ID
obtained TO keep very powerful pump
ing engine at work with a minimum OF
expense.
Some idea OF the enormous power which
the sun machine conveys to the engine
can be gauged by the fact that 1900 gal
Ions OF water can be lifted nearly forty
feet In one minute. In many ingenious
ways water Is now trapped by means pt
dams, gigantic reservoirs and great
stretches OF piping and converted into
power for various purposes.
Many great waterfalls are now hAr-
messed in such a fashion, two OF the
most important being tho falls OF the
Rhine and those OF Niagara. The ma
ohinery used 70 obtain power from these
great products OF nature is somewhat
complicated, but roughly speaking, huge
pipes divert tons OF water from the
rapids just above the fall. This trapped
water is then allowed to fall some hun
dreds OF feet, and the force of It's fall
produces enormous power. The water
drops down pipes and shoots out IN

fierce Jets from noEzles below.
Dozens Of these powerful streams inn
plnge on waterwheels connected to Al
shaft which is whirled round at a furi-
GUS speed. thus providing the force neces-
sary to keep numerous electric dynhmos
continually at work. In this fashion the
falls OF Niagara are made to produce
title short OF 100000 horsepower. Still
more Ingenious is another method OF pro-
ducing power from sea water by the rise
and fall OF the tides Portions OF the
coast where high tides are the rule are
chosen. and a number OF clefts in the
cliffs are constructed or those OF nature
specially adapted.
The water runs high up into these open
ings at high tide. and by means of pipes
is trapped into huge reservoir. When
the tide falls hundreds OF gallons of
water are thus left behind. Being on a
high level, II is then a comparatively
simple matter TO drop this water by means
OF pipes to a level many feet below and
utilize the power thus obtained by the
usual water Jets acting on specially con-
structed wheels.
