wELDED-sTEEL OVERFLOW PIPE

A steel pipe in one piece, nearly 2,o00 feet long and 27 inches in di- ameter, has recently been constructed to serve as an overflow for reser- voir which supplies Victoria, B. C.. with water, says an illustrated ar ticle in the Popular Mechanics Mag azine. A great deal of trouble had been given by the periodical over flow of this reservoir, as farm lands below it were either inundated or SO waterlogged that it was impossible to seed them in the spring. So it was decided to build this outlet. part of which was to be a concrete lined canal. and the remaining portion made of pipe.
 The pipe was made in sections, 20 feet long, at the factory, the plates being rolled to shape and joined by welding. These sections were shipped to the site of the overflow, and were there brought together and held firmly by clamp of special pattern which allowed a portion of the joints to be welded while the clamp was still tightly screwed up.

BUGS ARE THREATENING
 IN THE NATIONAL
Yankees, Though Not Gain- ing on Browns, Hit
 Real Stride

New York, August 13.-The Pitts burg Pirates, rejuvenated under the leadership of Bill McKechnie, threat en to upset the New York-St. Louis monopoly in the National league and make three-club stfuggle down the home stretch.
 The Pirates hung up a seasons record Saturday when they hammered out their thirteenth straight victory and, although checked in the 10 in- ming battle today by Cincinnati, they are separated from the first place Giants by only five and a half games. Steady, and at times brilliant pitch ing, plus a terrific batting attack. is the driving factor in the clubs on- ward rush.
 Giants Regain Lead The Giants, meanwhile, saved an otherwise disastrous week and re- gained first place from the St. Louis Cardinals by trouncing Brooklyn three times in two days. By defeat ing Boston today while the Card inals. lost their second straight to Chicago, the champions increased their lead to a game and half.
 Though unable to gain on the St. Louis. Browns. who held teHaci- ously to their lead in the American league, the Yankees apparently have hit their real stride. They ended a successful western trip by taking three out of four from Detroit.
 Both lost today, the Yankees to Washington and the Browns 10 Chicago.
 Improved infield play, due to the addition of Joe Dugan, and sustained batting attack, have combined to fortify the Yankees for the drive toward the finish. The Browns, with none too good twirlers, have main- tained their pace chiefly because of heavy hitting.
 Detroit and the White Sox dropped back while the Chicago Cubs, clos ing a successful eastern invasion and slugging their way to victory twice over the Cardinals. are on the heels Of the Pirates In the National league.
 Cleveland and Cincinnati. the only clubs below fourth place to show winning percentages. top the second division by comfortable margins. The Reds bowled over the Giants three times in row but until today were unable to stop the Pirates. Phila delphia was Pittsburg's other vic tim during the week.

FOUR PRISONERS MAKE GETAWAY. Men Walk Out of Chattanooga Prison With Party
 of Visitors
By Associated Press

Chattanooga, August 1S.-Four prisoners, all said to be desperate men, and including Luther Borln, who killed Sheriff j. L. Smith of Bradley county, a few months ago, escaped from the Hamilton jail some time today and are still at large.
 Besides Borin, the fugitives are Arthur Henley, serving term for felonious assault; Ira Henley. con victed of highway robbery, and J. F. Rouch, held for forgery.
 Sheriffs officers believe the pris- oners walked out with a party of visitors, this being visiting day at the jail and several denominations holding religious services in the in- stitution. It is the theory of Sheriff Bush that clothing had been smug- gled to the men along with the saws with which they escaped from their cells by saving through steel plate, and that the prisoners took ad- vantage of the fact that a new jailer was on duty to leave with some of the visitors.
 Make Good start
 The escape was not known for some time and the fugitiyes had a good start. Sheriff Bush. when informed, organized posse and began a search for the men and also notified nearby cities. It is believed that Borin will make for his old haunts in the noun tains of Bradley county. where he is accused of killing Sheriff Smith when discovered at moonshine still. One of Borin's brothers is in the jail her charged with the same of- fense, but did not escape, the two men having been separated. The Hen ley boys come from Tracy City, and Arthur Henley had Been sentenced to from three to twenty-one ears in the penitentiary for shooting Lon Parrish, special agent of the Nash vile, Chattanoog and St. Louis raI- road at Tracy City

DIRECTIONAE RADIO WAVES

Directional control of radio waves. of which mention was made in the Popular Mechanics, is the latest in- vention of Signor Marconi and was successfully demonstrated by him in New York city recently, says an H. lustrated article in the August Popu- lar Mechanics Magazine. Using waves only one meter in length, the famous inventor sent. or shot these accurately across 20 feet of space with midget wireless out fit. In shooting the waves. a reflec- tor was used. the waves being caught at the receiving end on a horizontal metal standard. The reflector is q skeltonized semicircular appartus, with the open or flat surface to- ward the receiving station, and throws the radio wave in somewha. {. the same manner as mirror in the hand throws a ray of light.

BATTERIES QUICKLY TESTED

Hydrometer readings are usually puzzling to the novice. but with a recently introduced battery tester no confusing calculations are necessary says an illustrated article in the Popular Mechanics Magazine. The innovation has three colored balls, white, green and red, each of different and known specific gravity. When the glass tube of the instru- ment is filled, these balls. by either floating or sinking, indicate the difference in specific gravity be- tween them and the contents of the battery under test, and IL thus possi- ble to form a reliable opinion of the condition of the cells, and to prop erly dilute the electrolyte.
