It was agreed that kind of paving was especially good, but some argument was hoard agalnst th extra cost. More criticlsm W lodged against the extra charge for grading and the extra cement than the other The club took no formal action matter last evening. On the question for a site for the manual training department there was much diver sity of opinion. Some favored the pur- chase of ' additional property and other thought the bullding should be erected o the present high school site. The extra cost of a site could then applied to provide & better bullding. As to the styl of bullging it.was thought a buliding could be erébted which would supplement the present one and even add artistic features to the school campus The members of the Board of Education were present and anxious to have the com- mercial olub assist in the solution of the problem The club was asked to appoint a vommittes to work In conjunction with the bogrd.

The Natlonal Live Stock exchange, repre- senting ail the besf producars of the o try, is making a move against the tax on olcomargarine and has set forth it argu- ments in a pamphlet form addressed to the president, the senate and the house, A re- capitulation of the arguments against the tax of 10 cents a pound on colored oleo- margarine and % cent on uncolored oleo shows: Oleomargarine products are almost inden- tical in chemical constituency, in digesti- bllity, in palatability and wholesomeness with butter products. The basis of both is | the butter fat. The discovery of a new | food product should not be discouraged by excessive taxation or onerous restrictions, All regulative laws should be directed solely toward the guaranty of the purity of the | food product and the prevention of fraud |in_its" distribution and sale, The perfection of the manufacture of { oleomargarine placed within the reach of | the “great masses of the people a cheap and wholesome food product and found a | new outlet for an important part of the | steer supply of the live stock producing sec- | tions of the Tnited States and made the product of the cattle raisers more valuable, The imposition of the tax struck down & new industry and made a monopoly of an old. It lessened the food supply of the masses simply that the butter makers might get higher prices and establish a substantial monopoly. It made conditions #uch, that later, when monopoly had made high prices, so that the manufacture of the new food product became possible, fraud and deception grew so prevalent that but- | spread upon their bread.

Through the microscope he discovers billions of little creatures of whose existence he was un- aware. With his measuring Instruments the scientist 1s able to measure distance and quantity a million times more acc rately than with the eye; heat a thou- sand times more accurately than with the sense of feeling; and time a thousand times more accurately than with the unaided mind. | The bolometer, devised by the late Prof. | Langley to measure the heat of the stars, |18 a marvelous instrument. The heat of the average star Is no greater to us thgn the heat of a candle placed three miles away, yet this delicate Instrument will measure the varying degrees of heat glvn off by different stars. A spider's web, a thread of spun gl the gause of a fly's wing and a mirror gs small as a pin | head, are some of the things that enter |into its construction. It Is so sensitive to heat that the image of a man's face thrown upon it at a distance of a halt {mile will be registered sharply. The dividing engine, used by sclentists | to make spectroscope gratings for analysz- Ing rays of light, is perhaps the next most | delicate machine man has contrived. The Rowland dividing engine will rule 120,000 parallel lines on a single Inch of surface. Another will draw fourteen lines on the edge of the finest tissue paper. It was almost an Insuperable task to get the wheels perfect enough to do the work, but a little electroplating brush of the most ingenious construction finally served the purpose. When the machine is in opera- tlon it mist be let alone, as eyen the prox- imity of a human being will fnterfere with the truenees of its lines. It goes on inces- santly drawing its dlamond point across the hardened steel, hen, the grating is finished it sells for as much as $50 per square inch, Another very perfect machine is the Whiteworth measuring machine, which will determine thickness down to the millionth part of an Inch., When one desires such a degree of accuracy it is an easy matter to set the machine a shade too tight. To over- come this the Inventor placed a pair of “feelers” on it, enabling the operator to tell when it Is exactly right. The ma- chine is so accurate that if a man places his tinger nail against a bar of iron thirty- six inches long, It will register the ex- pansion caused by the communicated heat. The Shaw, measuring machine will de- termine length down to the hundred-mil- lionth part pf an inch. As the series of wheels on a watch multiply the motion of a single turn of the mainspring lato thousands of revolutions by the balance wheel, 80 there Js a series of little levers in the Shaw machine which reduce the movement of an inch on the lever operated by the hand to the hundredth-millionth part of an Inch on the one at the other end of the serles. One well may wonder how such an instrument can be turned to human use, yet it was this machine which discovered that the vibration of the dlaphragm in a telephone receiver, In regis- tering the faintest audible sound, moves through the one-fifty-millionth part of an inch. This machine is so delicate that un- alded human perception cannot interpret its registrations, therefore a small micro- phonic telephone has been attached to it for thig purpose. These measuring ma- chines werg uéed to determine the length of the fuhprculosis germ. One of the greatest alds to human knowledge is the spectroscope. In its simplest form this instrument is a tri- angular prism through which the sun shines, revealing the colors of the rainbow, In its complex form it takes the shape of a telescope broken in two, with the two parts placed at about the,angle of the two marks of the letter V, except thaf they do not join at the apex. Instead there are a number of prisms placed between them, Which bend the ray of light going Into one barrel until the eye can behold it while looking in the corresponding end of the other barrel. The powers of this instrument seem al- most miraculous. It will discover the pre: ence of one-efghteen-millionth of u grain of sodium, while, the human taste can percelve only the presence of one part of salt in & few hundred parts of water, It can take the thousandth part of a grain of dried buman blood, which has been ex- posed to the air for fifty years, and show by the characteristic lines that it is blood Train Robbed by Three Men Near Cornell, Kansas Passengers Are Forced to Deposit Their Purses, Watches and Rings in Gunny Sack. ¢ PITTSBURG, Kan., Feb, 6.—Thres un- identified men held up ‘and robbed the pas- sergers on an eastbound Missour! Pacific passenger train five miles east of here last night. They were unmasked. About $400 and a small amount of jewelry was taken from the passengers. The robbers boarded tne train on the out- skirts of Pittsburg. They took seats In the chair car and rode quietly along until | the train was near Cornell, Kan. There they leaped from fheir seats, backed con- ductor Garrity Into a corner and drawing revolvers, warned him not to call for as- sistance. One of the robbers then covered the passengers with two large revolvers. You will now prepare to give up your | valuables,” he said. “My partner here will qu- among you. Please be quiet.” The “partner” thereupon produced a gunny sack and started on his collecting tour. From each passenger he took everything Money, watches, dlamonds and rings all went into the sack., One woman screamed and fainted. The collector calmly lifted a ring from her tinger, picked her purse up off the floor, to which it had fallen, and pas the next vietim. Passengers revived the woman after the robbers left the coach. Throughoutsthe progress of. the robbery {the train hurried ahead. Not one of the crew, with the exception of the conductor, knew a robbery was being perpetrated. | When the lights in the town of -Cornell loomed Into view, several of the pas- sengers at the rear of the coach who had not been reached by the robbers, hoped they would escape with thelr valuables, and they began placing them back In thelr pockets. But they were doomed to dis- appointment. Just because the train stopped at the station, the robbers did not hurry away. The robber with the gunny sack stripped the last passenger in the jcar of his goods and then the three dropped d on to| Some Things You Want to Know fic Instruments. ~and human blood at that.* It can take a ray of light coming from a star so dis- tant th&t the ray has been years in reaching here and divide it up In such a Way a8 to discover the kinds of matter in the star from whence the beam comes. In ihis way the spectroscope found hellum in the sun, ninety milllon miles distant, be- fore the chemist discovered it hard by his own doorstep. The spectroscope has hundreds of uses, some Of them very prosaic. In the Bes- semer process cf making steel the object 18 to burn a certain percentage of the carbon out of the ore. It usually takes abcut twenty minutes to complete the process, but ‘if It is poured out twenty secunds too scon or twenty seconds too late the whole is ruined. The spectroscope tells the exact Instant when the proper amount of carbon has been burned out A remarkable Instance of precision in big things is the cuse of the great Yerkes telescope. A star of the seventh magni- tude appears to be one-twenty-five-hun- dredth of an inch in diameter. There Is a spider web across the object glass which is one-six-thousandth of an inch In diam- eter. The problem s to move this twenty- two-ton telescope with such precision that the star disc of one-twenty-five-hundredth of an Inch can be threaded upon the spider web of oné-six-thousandth of an inch at all times, and to keep, it moving in oppo- sition ‘o0 the motion of the earth. This Is accomplished by electrical ajtachments of wonderful accuracy. The strength -testing machines now In use represent a high type of exact mecha- nism, possessing as they do the strength of a thousand glants and at the same time the delicacy of the halr spring of a wateh. They register ‘at one effort the tensile strength of a bar of iron requiring a mil- lion, pounds to pull it apart, and at the next effort tell to the fraction of an ounce how much pressure it required to crush an egg shell. They will test the strength qf a horse hair or that of a gigan- tic cable With eqial exactness. This ma- chine operates.cn the principle of the hydraulic press—2/0 grains of welght on one platform lifting 20,000 punds on the other, Anli The microteme 18 another remarkable in- strument of the laboratory. The person who has scen the breakfast bacon slicer in a grocery store will understand ‘some- thing of its prinefplus. When the sclentist wants to examthe the cross section of a little norpsule too small to be picked up with the hand he encloses it in a coating of hard paraffin and that in another coat- ing of softer consistency. Then he puts it Jnto his little slicing machine and is able to make slices so thin that it would require 2,000 of them piled on top of one another to make a stack an inch high. Yhen he melts. the paraffin away and places the almost invisible slice on the object glass of his microscope. Time measuring Instruments of precision were the forerunners of all the delicate machines of sclefice, Ever since man has havigated the”seas beyond the sight of land he has needed the most accurate measures of timé In order that he might tell his longitude with reasonable correct- ness. In 1714 the English government of- fered £20,000 to'the man who would evise & chronometer so accuraie that longitude could be told within thirty miles and de- scending reward down to half as much for the person who'Gomld tell it within sixty miles. In 176 Jolih Harrison, son of a Yorkshire carperité¥] claimed and was given the ‘highest®wward. Now chronom- cters are made which are so accurate that hey will vary only a few seconds in weeks, The ysilgl battleship carries three chro- nometers, and the méan time of the three is taken as actuul’time. There are machines in common use today whigh make sérews so small that they appear to be but little particles of dust, 100,000 of them being required to fill an ordinary thimble.' Yet each of them must have a perfect head and a perfect thread. They are used as screws for the fourth Jewel wheel of a watch. All the operations with them are done more by the sense of touch than of sight and it is marvelous how acute the himan sense of touch may become. Some time ago a bicycle marnufac- turer brought some balls intended for ball bearings to watchmaker to show what per- fect specimens he had produced. The watchmaker said they were not round and wagered he could point out three depre sions on cach ball. A micromejer was ap- plied and it showed that on éach bal the exact spots pointed out there were de- pressions of less than the thousandth part of an inch. ? BY PREDERIC J.

Great Britain, ‘ LFUTURE MODERATES URGE CAUTION They Insiat that Budget Sh Disposed of Firat—Government Will Outlime Jts PFlan This Week. LONDON, Feb. 6.—Of even greater inter- est than the possible changes in the cabl- net is the course the government is likely to pursue upon the reassembling of Parlia- ment. Premler Asquith has kept his own | counsels and the views of the liberals vary aoccording to their shade of radicalism. Extreme liberals strongly favor an im- mediate attack upon the veto power of the House of Lords, leaving the budget and all other legislation until the party has settled its account with the peers. The Irish members, too, are believed to sup- port this view. The more moderate liberals, seeing the possibility of the disorganization of the | finances of the country by this course of | action are urging the government first to |introduce the budget, which the lords, | accepting the result of the election as an | endorsement of the government's financial | poliey, are already pledeged to pass. Future Status of Lords. | On the question of the future status of | the House of Lords, opinions differ almost |as widely. The laborites and extremist |radicals are for the absolute abolition of the upper chamber which hardly comes | within the purview of practical politics. | Another section of the ministeriailsts de- | mands the abolition of the lords’ right of | veto on- financial legistation and the cur- | tatlment of their veto in other legislation. The views of the moderates are expressed by Sir Edward Grey, the forelgn secretary, | who satd: “‘No reform of the House of Lords can be a real reform unless it provides for the abolition of the hereditary principle and the substitution of popular election." The Spectator follows up this with the | Suggestion that the upper house be modeled {after tha American senate the . |consiat of 20 members chosen under & {system of proportionate representation | from equal electorate areas. In the meantime the unfonists, with the exception of a few peers, who, under no circumstances would find a place in the reformed chamber, are practically unani- mous for a change In the constitution of the House of Lords. Many schemes are being put forward, the most popular probably being that em- bodled in the report of the Rosebery committee, which provides for the elec- |tion of the hereditary peers of 100 of their own number, together with 130 peers qualified by service to the nation, ten bishops, five judges and forty life peers. Some imperialists among the unionists favor the suggestion made by Horton Griffiths, who has had great experience in the colonies, and some here. He pro- posed, when the moment is opportune, to establish a senate of the empire to include representatives of the colonies. Position of Nationalists. Premier Asquith can count on a majority for the curtallment of the House of Lords veto, fpr In time the nationallsts and doubtless the independent nationalists too, will be with the government. On the budget the attitude of the nationalists 1s still uncertain. Mr. Redmond has not committed him- self beyond glving out his cable corres- pondence with M. J. Ryan, national presi- dent of the United Irlsh League of America, but many members of the party strongly oppose the clauses Imposing whisky dutles, and If they do not vote against them would, In their own political interests have to abstain from voting. Willlam O'Brien, who heads the inde- pendent Irish members, has made his in- tended attitude quite clear, in a letter in which he says: “There {8 no doubt that the Irish party contemplates the blackest treason perpe- trated against Ireland since the action of the unfon. The nationalists propose to as- sist the government in passing the budget, which will impose on Ireland $10,000,000 in taxation per annum.” Action This Week.

BLUFIELD, Nic., Feb. 6.—Despatches teceived here describe the engagement which took place between the provisional forces under General Mena and the gov- ernment troops. In an officlal dispatch General Mcna says that he defeated 500 of the enemy, commanded by General Gar- rida, a Guatemalan, at Las Garltas, which is midway between La Libertad and Gui- galpa. Mena completely routed the enemy, cap- turlng many prisoners and riflés. The losses to the Madriz forces were heavy, while the provisionals suffered but slightly. General Mena is pushing forward to join General Chamorro at Comoapa, which Is well along the way to Managua.
