gestions of the work of giant hands. a race

For Bryce Canyon (Utah) is such
place as one expects to find only in the
stupor of a narcotic, and scarcely at the
end of drive through a red canyon,
where the pines sway evenly and the larb
grows ever green. We had been driving
all day through Redeemed hills with an
occasional lava rock outcrop; and far TO-
ward the east we had seen mere glinipses
OF pink walls, shining brilliantly as if they
claimed an internal illumination. Sage
brush and cedars adorned the slopes. and,
as we followed the undulations of the
Sewer River, willows banked the stream,
adding a gay color to the drab of the
countryside.
One stops abruptly when he first stands
on the rim of Bryce Canyon, gasps inaudi-
bly, at the reality, and then, like a pagan
worshipper, gazes enraptured at the sweet
deicacy of the place. Grandeur one finds

ney UNDERSTOOD the nature or the eX-
pansion and contraction of air by heat
and cold of which the vocal statue on the
plain of Thebes was an example. The
movement of the statue of Scraps and the
altar tricks of the Pharaonic priesthood
are other examples of the designed antics,
due to the use of compressed air and the
.vapor of water.
Had it not been for the written work of
Heron, the "Spiritalia," we should never
have suspected that air was made to per-
form so important part in ancient frauds
nor that its compression and expansion
had been employed to raise liquids.
Notwithstanding the high opinion which
history gives us of the historical and
philosophical knowledge of the old Egyp-
tan priesthood, we should hardly have
surmised that they had the art of applying
this subtle fluid so ingeniously. They
seem however, to have searched all nature
for devices; and to have become familiar
with many of the principles upon which
the most valuable of our arts and me-
chanics are based.
The condensing air pump or compressor
must have been used in charging the wind
guns of Ctesibius of Alexandria, about
12O B. c., as described by Vitruvius. The
properties exhibited by partial vacuum
must have been we'll known from five hun
dred to 1000 years before the Christian
era, as illustrated in the use of the siphon
and the atmospheric watering-pots of the
early Egyptians, though the principle of
the perfect vacuum is undoubtedly due to
Torricelli, by his production of the Mer-
curial vacuum about 1643 A. D.
The air pressure bellows in its many
stated use, that of forcing fire from the
earliest times, when a slight advance
was made in air pressure to operate the
devices and toys used in priestly incan-
tions, follow by its application in the
propulsion of projectiles by Ctesibius. Then
its principles slumbered in its low-pres-
sure use for more than 1000 years, when
the arrow discharged under air pressure
by Ctesibius finally developed into the
pneumatic gun of Marin in France, which
was presented to Henry w in 1900. A
more perfect compressed air gun was
brought out by Gutter at Nuremberg in
1856, which had attached to the stock, in
musket form, all the appliances for
charging and discharging by air COM
preston. But little further progress was
made in this line until near the middle of
the nineteenth century, when compressed
air guns took wide range of design;
their most useful and effective outcome
being the pneumatic guns of Zalinski and
others.
While the mechanical arts slumbered
through the dark ages in Europe, the
Chinese seem to have improved the abort
ginal piston blower by more perfect ac-
tion and finish, in an instrument styled by
them the "wind-box"
The water trombe, or tromp, for COM
pressing air by fall of water in tube,
used for blowing forges and other pur-
poses, was known to Heron, and was men,
toned by Ping in his "Natural History"
In improved form the tromp has held its
place for 1000 years and is in use at the
present in Europe and the Orient.

fountain for raising water was carried out

PARIS. May 23-The opening guns
in the Clemenccau nationalist attack
on the Poincare Ministry for it's part
in the Genoa conference were fired in
the Chamber Of Deputies to- day by
Andre Tardieu, former High Commits
sioncr to the United States. He as
sailed American policies ms partly re-

WASHINGTON. May 23.-Provision
for regular army of $4,000 men and
1880 officers was made to-day by the
Senate Military Committee in virtu-
ally completing revision Of the annual
army appropriation bill. House ap-
propriations were increased by the
Senate committee about SAC 900 900. A
contest with the House was predicted
in view Of the House limitation on the
army 10 115,o00 men and 1000 Off
GERS.
Chairman Wadsworth was authorized
by the committee 20 report the bill
at once to the Senate and seek an ar
rangement for early consideration.
None Of the Democratic committee
members voted against reporting the
bin, but there was q reservation of s
right to offer amendments.
Although the committee provided
appropriations for 1873 600 mon the bill
would authorize q maximum personnel
Of 100000. This, il was said, was to
give the War Department some latitude
in recruiting to fill gaps caused by en-
listment eXpiratlons.

100000. The Senate increase. it was
explained. was due largely to increased
cost of the additional personnel and
also salary increases for officers pro

might also dictate other conditions nf-
fecting Franco herself, sucn as pos
siby ,he reduction Of the military
forces on the Rhine, which is a heavy
burden OF expense to Germany. n
this case conflict of opinions would
be inevitable, as France considers her
army as the chief prop under the
Treaty Of Versailles.
Andreas Hermes. Berlin Minister Of
Finance, who came to Paris to talk with
members Of the Allied Reparation
Commission regarding it, demand FOR
increased taxation in Germany and
control of German fiscal affairs by the
Allies as the price Of q moratorium on
war bill payments, returned TO Berlin
Tonight Before his departure he told
the commission that he would advise
his government to accept the conditions
laid down. He did not come here with
authority to make any definite pro
posals regarding the Berlin Cabinet S
intentions and he confined his activ-
tiles to listening to explanations of
what was expected of Germany. He
will communicate this information to
his Cabinet colleagues and leaders of
the political parties in the Rcichstag
and then return here May 26.
In view OF the similarity OIL \LNc
terms suggested by the Rcparac'on
Commission and the demands which
Mr.. Morgan is expected to make as the
price Of German loan, it is believed
here that unless the Berlin government
agrees to the conditions Of Allied con
troll it will be difficult for the bankers
to offer any loan.
influential members Of the Rcpara
tion Commission reiterated their con.
fdcnce tonight that Germany would
90 as far rs possible toward meeting
the Allied demands and that then the
commission would be prepared 10 make
minor concessions. The members OF
the debt body do not want to accept
the responsibility for further troubles
in Europe. and it was intimatcd that
even should Germany refuse the Al
lied terms there would be no need OF
referring the matter directly to the
Allied governments.

Tardieu's speech came Immediately
after a short recess Of tho Chamber in
honor of Paul Deschanel. former Presi-
dent, who died few weeks ago. A
eulogy WAS read in his memory.
The Clemenceau group leader berated
"the evils Of the Anglo Saxon economic

fcated powers and Russia snd for the

Premier Poincare interrupted to an
nounce that tho government would not

scnted at the Holland meeting The
government would only ask the Cham
ber to approve its course at Genoa, he
said, and then the Cabinet itself would

Tardieu indicated that French ma
tonalism would be the keynote Of tho
Clemenceau groups attacks on the
present ministry.
This economic materialism that we
are contcnding with now was an An
gloSaxon invention supported by the
Germans" he said. "Therc is one OBJ
stacle in Europe to this scheme, and
that is France with her rights and her
treaties"
Tardieu insisted that America knew
little Of Europe's problems and said,
in effect: I'VE must ask our Ameri-
can friendr not to Intervene in our
business. Americans could not take
offense at such request. The United
States had created the Monroe Doc
trinc to forbid the abusive invas on
by Europe on the American continent
We must also have our Monroe Doc
trine to prevent inopportune Ameri-
can intervention on the European con
tinent. Americans may be shocked by
the state Of affairs. but they must rec
