ARMY BUGLES.
Fashioned From Sheets of Copper BY
an Ingenious Process.

Fashioned From Sheets of Copper BY
an Ingenious Process.
From start to finish the making OF
an army bugle is process of much
ingenuity and interest. A bugle may
not at first sight present striking re-
semblance to it's cousin. the coach
horn, but one is practically curled
up version of the other. for before the
bugle is bent into shape it consists OF
narrow tube ffty-one inches long.
In the first stage Of manufacture the
bugle is cut out Of sheet copper and
rolled into two thin cylinders, technic-
ally known as the bell and the
branch" The narrow tube, which is
the bell" is gradually shaped out on
molds until the opening is the regular
four inches in diameter. 1t is then
spun" on wonderful machine, and
an expert workman takes the rough
edges off the copper.
Both sections are afterward Hlled with
molten lead preparatory to the bending
stage. and it is this solid stutflng
which prevents the tube breaking IN
the process and allows it to keep its
shape. The expert workman, with the
aid of a formidable lever and hammer,
bends the bugle into the familiar
shape. the lead being subsequently
melted out at a charcoal furnace, after
which the instrument is sent off to the
polishers.
One of the most intricate parts of the
bugle is the mouthpiece, which is made
of nickel silver and turned out on a
special lathe With the mouthpiece
fixed the instrument is ready for the
testing room.-Pearson's Weekly.

and the river beneath there are more
than 200 feet of space and the cables.
Every exposed strand and spot of the
whole structure must be painted. so
the men scramble over the cables until
they reach the topmost point Of the
great towers, which extend 272 feet
above the water, and finally end up on
the scafolds suspended beneath the
structure, where the masthe9ls of pass

THE BIG SHOW.

And that word is not confined to
dress or to hats or walking sticks or
ribbons or frills. 1t even includes
circuses and the clowns therein.
Beg pardon? Yes, clowns is correct
For there are fashions in clowns just
as there are fashions in necktieS or in
the waistline, ar anything else. And
the fashions in clowns have changed
good deal in the last fifteen or
twenty years.
Incidentally, speaking of clowns,
brings forth the fact that the Sells
Floto Circus and Buffalo Bills Origi-
nal Wild West is to visit this city,
Saturday. July II and when it comes,
the genus clown will be present in
forty species. AS to their fashions
Time was when the clown merely
had to be funny. His work was that
of the impromptu. He followed the
principal riding act around the ring
and made faces, or tumbled on his
left eye as his fancy bade-and the
audience liked it.
But that time is gone now For
now the clown must be sort of
theatrical magnate on small scale.
He must have his set acts, which he
and his assistants perform for the
promotion of mirth beneath the
Spreading "white tops" Every GEES
ture must be made at just the right
mSment-everything must move with
the precision of theatrical perfor-
nance upon stage when one cue
line brings forth another and the con-
slant dovetailing of the speeches and
the business builds the play.
And so it is that in the Sells-F loto
Circus and Buffalo Bill's Original Wild
West there are "props'' and effects by
the wagonlOad, and all for the use of
the forty clowns employed by the
circus. For the business of Glowing
has changed.

IMPROVEMENTS
Decorated Will Reopen First Week
In August.

The ST. Paul's Evangelical churcn.
at the corner of Washington and
Fifth streets, is undergoing a number
of improvements. 1t has been painted
during the past month dark brown.
The interior Of the church has been
re-decorated.
Among the improvements on the
interior are the four mural canvases,
which are very beautiful. The studies
are "The Birth of Christ, "Christ in
the Temple" ''The Rich Young
Ruler" lind "The Resurrection"
These paintings are wonderful pieces
of work. The ceiling has been painted
in oil and with the walls which are
recolored with a brown, these also be-
ing done in oil, the church will present
beautiful interior appearance. The
new lights will hang down about four
teen feet from the ceiling. A new
carpet has also been secured, donated
by the women of the congregation.
Rev. Grauer expects that the church
will be in shape so that it can be
used by the first Sunday in August.

ELECTRICITY.
Some Facts About This Wonderful and
Puzzine Medium.

Some Facts About This Wonderful and
Puzzins Medium.
Here are some Of the known facts
about electricity that will enable those
who know nothing about it to under
stand how it behaves. 1t must be IN
derstood that no one knows what cleo
tricity is. Only through its behavior
can we arrive at an idea Of its nature.
The following facts are condensed from
an article in the Electrical Experiment
ter:
All substances, from the heaviest
metals to the ightest gases, are cleo
trio, but they differ widely in their
electric qualities. Electricity is called
positive when it exists or is excited
in any body in an amount in excess
of the amount natural to that body.
1t is called negative when it exists or
is excited In any body in an amount
which is less than the amount natural
to that body. All electrical phenomena
in nature depend upon the tendency of
electricity to find an equilibrium be-
tween it's positive and negative states.
Electricity resides In all substances
and is, perhaps, an essential ingredi-
ent of their conditions, so every change
in their state, whether from heat to
cold or from cold to heat, from a state
of rest to a state Of motion, from solid
to liquid or to aeriform, or vice versa,
or whether substances combine chem
ically or are chemically separated-in
every change the electrical equilibrium
is disturbed, and in proportion to the
degree of disturbance is the force eX-
erted by electricity to resume its bal
ance.
Electricity seeks to gain it's equilib-
rum by passing through substances
that are favorable to its diffusion.
These are called conducting or non
conducting, according as they favor or
oppose the passage of the electrical
current
Among the conductors are metals,
charcoal, animal fluids, water, vege-
table and animal bodies, flame, smoke
and vapor. Among the nonconductors
also called insulators-are rust, oils.
phosphorus, lime, chalk, rubber, cam
phOr, marble, porcelain, dry gases and
air, wool, silk, glass, transparent
stones, wax and amber. Some of these
become conductors when wet.
When electricity in considerable
force, seeking it's equilibrium, meets
with insulating bodies intense heat and
light are produced, in the evolution Of
which the electric force becomes ex-
pended. When the electric force is
checked in its course by an insulator
spark is emitted If the current be
strong. When currents pass toward
each other along wires at the ends of
which charcoal points are placed and
these ends remain in contact, the cleo
trical communication is uninterrupted
and no light is emitted, but the instant
the charcoal points are separated a
layer of dry air, a nonconductor, is
interpOsed. and the electricity in fore
ING its way through that nonconductor
evolves intense heat and brilliant light

A NINE year battle for freedom
Perseverance, we all have seen, usu-
ally wins in the end. Will Harry K.
Thaw, the man pronounced insane by
as many as ten or more experts, after
nine years of continual effort to free
himself from the hands of the law be
able to accomplish this? The trial OF
the slayer of Stanford White began
Wednesday before the supreme court,
with a jury of twelve men. The fact
that for the first time in all the trials
a jury is present, gives hope to all
concerned. Thaw's council, John B.
Stanchfield considers this of great ad-
vantage. The prisoner had even
called to his assistance many of the
residents of New Hampshire with
whom he came in close contact during
his fifteen months stay in that state
after his escape from Mattewan. This
probably will be his last trial and it
is freedom, now or never. Millions
have been spent in the attempt to
liberate ThaW.

club of this city, Lurton H. Stubbs,
of Chicago, one of the greatest ex-
perts on the prevention of fire in
this country, will give an address at
the ChautauQua on the evening of
July Doth. The lecture will be inter
esting from start to finish and won
derfully illustrated with lantern slides
and moving pictures. The audience
will be shown conditions that cause
fire; just how they start from certain
causes, such as over loaded wires and
spontaneous combustion: They will
see the most approved methods of ex-
tinguishing fires and prevention: the
Chicago fire prevention department at
work: the New York fire department
in actual rescue work; the great Edi-
son buildings burning and several
other big fires. A large audience
should greet this most instructive
address.
