rage, was completely repulsed. The
British improved their positions slight

Washington, Sept 23.-Machinery
designed to force men from non-es-

MADE USE OF STEAM POWER
Centuries Ago, Men Were Familiar
With Its Possibilities, but Did
Not Develop Them.

A real curiosity in the United States
patent office is a working model of the
first steam engine, built by clever
inventor named Hero century and a
half before Christ was born
A modern engineer would call it a
steam reaction turbine. 1t consists of
a spherical vessel pivoted on an axis
and supplied with steam through one
of the pivots. The steam escapes
through bent pipes in opposite direc-
tions. thus causing the globe TO re-
Volve.
Hero was the first steam engineer.
Having hit upon the idea that the eX-
pansive energy of steam could be used
for power. he developed a number OF
devices for its mechanical employ
ment.
One of them was hollow altar be-
meath which a fire was built. Under
the altar was a vessel containing WA
ter. The latter. converted into steam.
opened the temple doors by pressure
upon "A pair of vertical posts on which
ed, the doors closed automatically.
The ancients 1000 years and more
ago used steam power for turning spits
and various other unimportant pur-
poses. But il does not seem TO have
occurred to them that this source of
energy might be made available for
mechanical utilization on large scale.
