A Motive Power Which is to be Se? cured by Compressed Air. Atlanta Constitution There is being erected in this city an aii enjine that promises to almost accomplish perpetual motion. The invention represents the patient toil and experiments of more than twenty years, and before the week is ended, every detail will have been finished and the complete structure of the first model accomplished. The inventor of this wonderful piece of mechanism is J. A. Adams, a ma? chinist of considerable repute and possessing evident genius. He has for many years believed that great re? sults could be realized from the at? mosphere and more than twenty years ago he began to study the question. His theory in substance was that the air could be stored away and so com? pressed that it would turn the ponder? ous wheels of machinery with the same results as steam and at a much less cost. With this view in mind he went to work upon his theory. For years his labor appeared to be in vain and he accomplished but little. Almost a fortune was spent upon his scheme and the end seemed yet afar off. After months of patient toil, he began to realize that his hopes would finally be realized and he began working with renewed earnestness. Only a short time ago did he reach anything like a satisfactory result. Gradually did the plan outline itself and about four months ago Mr. Adams made a drawing of his model. He immediately began to construct his model and in a few days the work will be complete. The engine is under construction on a vacant lot in the rear of Madison street and the tall tower with the double pipes pointing her-.venward has attracted a great deal of attention. To all outward appearances, the engine looks like a huge tower, and the frame work is heavy and very similar to the scaffolding that is used in building a factory smokestack. In connection with the air engine is a windmill which is also of Adams's invention. In fact, most of the tower and scaffolding is used to support the windmill, and has no relative bearing to the engine except to support the two large pipes, through which the air is obtained for the use of the en? gine. Yesterday a Constitution represen? tative inspected the engine. Mr. Adams was busily engaged giving the machinery a few finishing touches and will in a few days open it for the pub? lic to inspect. "What you see now," said Mr. Adams, "is the result of years of study and patient toil and repesents several small fortunes. "Practically the work has been completed and my great purpose ac compRshedT I have been working under many difficulties. It has cost much money, hut I have managed to get my invention in such tangible shape that it is no longer a theory, but a fact. "I can't go into details yet, but can give you a few ideas that will be in? teresting and will tell the story. It is not the rate of the wind that runs the machine but compressed air. The air is secured through the large pipes that are on the tower. There is located in the pipes a set of wheels and fans that cause a great deal of suction. The air comes down the pipes, and is com? pressed by special machinery and stored away. It matters not how dead the calm or stiff the breeze, as the engine is not affected either way by these conditions. As the air is se? cured, it is stored away, and is used as occasion may require for running the engine. "I do not contend that I have dis? covered perpetual motion, but I do claim that 1 have come nearer that than any one else. It is the air that propels the engine and the wheels that compress the air are turned by the the same volume. It is all automatic and everything works without the aid of man. No attention is required and when once the wheels are released the air does all the rest. It would run for a century unless the machinery wore out. I consider it one of the greatest discoveries of the age. "In a day or two I will put in an electric dynamo, and the engine will generate the electricity. I will have lights hung over the entire plant and the place will be as bright as day. "The engine will be placed on ex? hibition in New York and a stock company is to be formed in a few days. It is a complete success and I do not regret the money that I have spent upon it." Mr. Adams is a genius in his line and has invented many important pieces of machinery. Several years ago he invented an excelsior machine that revolutionized the prices' of that commodity. He also built an arrangement for the manufacture of mattress shucks. This invention, too, has been very important in the manufacture of mttresscs. Mr. Adams claims that his air en? gine will prove successful and satis? factory, and that any number of horse power can be obtained. "I think that the engine will even? tually supersede steam and electricity for motive power, as my machine can be operated at less than half the cost of the other two. "Cities can use it for running im? mense plants and the power to be se? cured from compressed air is not a probability, but a certainty to be realized in the near future." The windmill Mr. Adams has invent? ed and which occupies a portion of the tower is a wonderful piece of machinery. It is unique in design aud compactly built. The invention of the air engine is one of the wonders of this century and many will be inclined to believe that it will not work as is claimed for it. This Mr. Adams will practically demonstrate when he opens his engine for the public's inspection, which will be in a few days. Silled Herself In Church. Richmond, Va., June 30.?A sad and startling tragedy occurred here this afternoon. While the last hymn of the service, "Awake, my soul, stretch every nerve," was being sung at Dr. Hoge's, the Second Presbyte? rian Church, a sharp report was heard as if coming from the rear of the building. Two of the church ofiicers went out, and in the infant class room found Miss Minnie Wilkinson, a lady of about thirty-five years of age, stretched dead upon the floor. She had shot herself through the heart with a a pistol. Miss Wilkinson was an earnest worker in the Church, and was greatly beloved by the congrega? tion. Recently she has been suffering from melancholia, and had told friends she did not wish to live. Bucklcns Arnica Salve.

''Where are you going in such a hurry?" asked Fred Meredith of his friend Paul Wallace. "I am going on an errand for Mr. Rathbone, the gentleman who boards at our house, but I am in no great hur ry." "Didn't you say the other day that you wanted a knife ?" "Yes ; I lost mine, and I'm saving up money to buy one like yours." "Well, I've just a beauty to sell? cheap, too ! Grandfather has given me auother knife almost exactly like the one Uncle Jim bought me. Sec ! and Fred drew from his pocket two new knives, each having three shining blades. "Want to buy ?" "How much ?" asked Paul. "You may have it for a quarter, and that's cheap." "I'll take it, Fred." "Where's your money ?" "Here?cash down," and Paul hand? ed out a silver quarter, taking in ex? change a nice new knife. Now this appeared to be a very fair, simple transaction, as both boys were satisfied with the trade. But there is a shadow to the picture?the quarter did not belong to Paul Wallace, and he had no right to give it to Fred. He did not steal it?at least he did not mean to steal it. It was part of the money with which Mr. Rathbone had instructed him to purchase a rib? bon and some paper for use on a type? writer. He had given it to Paul part? ly in silver, a half and two quarters, and the rest in a bill, as the purchase came to exactly three dollars. So Paul "just borrowed" one of the quarters without the knowledge or consent of its owner, lie intended to run' back home, and get a half dollar which he had in his bureau drawer, and use half of it in making Mr. Rath bone's purchase. He hastened home, got-hisown coin, and then went to the store to make his purchase. He gave the clerk his own half dollar and Mr. Rathbone's, keeping the other quarter, when the clerk exclaimed : "Hold on, lad, one of these half dollars is a counterfeit I" and he re? turned to Paul not Mr. Rr.thbonc's shiny new coin, but the one taken from the bureau drawer. "I'm sorry," added the clerk, civilly, "that I can't take it. Better go bdek and get another. I'll keep your package ready for you." Here was a quandary. What should he do ? His father and mother had gone away for the day, and would not be home until supper time. Of course he could go and ask Uncle John for it; but then Uncle John was so terribly particular about money matters that he would be sure to tell Paul that he had no business to have meddled with Mr. Rathbone's money. Thus the boy reasoned with himself, and at last came to the wise conclu? sion that he would swallow his pride and go directly to Mr. Rathbone and tell him the whole story, asking par? don for his unintentional transgres? sion. Mr. Rathbone heard him quietly to the end, and then said impressively : "Paul, I am almost glad that this thing happened, for it may be a warn? ing and save you from the peniten? tiary." "The penitentiary ! 0, Mr. Rath? bone, you don't think I meant?" "To steal ? ? No, indeed, my boy ; I am sure you did not! But let me tell you a sad story, one of which I rarely speak. I once had an only brother, who was a very intellectual man, very upright and highly respect? ed. For years he was agent and treasurer for a large firm, and had the care of large sums of money. At last there came a terrible shock to us. He was suspected of dishonesty, and when arrested confessed his guilt. He had borrowed a rather small sum of mon? ey?one he could easily replace if lost?in order to speculate. He was successful j he borrowed more and more, and at last lost so heavily that he could not square his accounts. He died in prison, sentenced for dishon? esty ; yet he never meant to steal. Oh, Paul, be careful, be careful ! It is tne first step which counts. There is danger in the beginning of evil, for God only can tell where a 'little sin' may lead us."?Congregationalist. Choosing the Lc-88?r Evil. One of the California pioneer the oth? er day told the Washington Post a story of stump speaking in the Golden State. A turbid orator, so noted for his ver? bosity and heaviness that he had been dubbed "Melancholy" McCullom, was assigned to speak at a mining camp in the mountains. There were about 50 miners present when he be? gan. But when, at the end oi a cou? ple of hours, he gave no sign of fin? ishing, his listeners dropped away. Some went back to work, but the ma? jority sought wherewith to quench their thirst, which had been immense? ly aggravated by the dryness of the discourse. Finally there was but one auditor left, a dilapidated, weary-looking old fellow. Fixing his gaze on him, Mc? Cullom pulled out a man's size six shooter and laid it on the table, i The old fellow rose slowly and drawled out: "Be you goin' to shoot, ef I go ?" "You bet I am," responded McCul? lom, "I'm bound to finish my speech, even if I have to shoot to keep an au? dience." The old fellow sighed in a tired manner, edged off slowly, saying as he did so : "Well, shoot, ef you wani; to. I may jest as well be shot as talked to death." Modern Arms and Gettysburg. At Gettysburg in July, 1863, had the Federal troops been armed with the rifle now being issued to the Uni? ted States infantry, and with the present improved field guns, Pickett's heroic band in the charge on the third day would have been under fire from start to finish, and the fire of massed infantry, combined with breech-load? ing cannon, would probably have de? stroyed every man in the assaulting lines. Pickett's right, when formed for the charge, was 1,S00 yards from the Union lines, and the magazine rifle sight is graduated, it will be re? membered, to 1,900 yards. With the weapons then in use the Federals did not open with artillery on the charg? ing Southern troops until they were within 1,100 yards of their lines, and their infantry did not fire until they were within a much closer range. In the recent war between China and Ja? pan it was stated that a ball fired from a Japanese rifle, called the Mu rata, similar to the United States magazine rifle, struck a Chinese three quarters of a mile away in the knee and crushed it te atoms.?Gen. Filz high Lrr, in the Century. Killed a Babe. RALEinii, N. C, July 1.?Late yes? terday afternoon after the south-bound Seaboard Air-Line train had passed Asbury, a small station near here, and was going rapidly down a steep grade the engineer saw a little white-robed figure on the crossties just outside the track. He jumped to the throttle and reversed the engine so suddenly that passengers were thrown from their seats. He was too late, for the steam chest had struck the little toddler and its dead body was picked up and car? ried to the home of its father, Mr. T. ?\. Jones, of Cary. A New England Farm. Dr. William Seward Webb, the New York railway magnate, has a farm at Shelbur'ne, Vt., which is undoubted? ly one of the most magnificent in America. * The farm is a peninsula of 4,000 acres, extending into Lake Champlain, with seven miles of coast line. Dr. Webb has spent over $1,000,000 in improving his property, and it is now a model estate. He pulled down barns to build larger ones, removed farm houses, leveled orchards and groves to plant new ones, tore up old roads to give place to fine highways, and in short- he did everything that could make the place more picturesque and valuable. His residence is in in the colonial style. It contains 150 rooms, all elegantly furnished, the halls and stairway in oak, drawing room in white and gold, and each suite different in finish and furnishings. There is a reservoir on the farm filled from the lake and seven miles of^iron pipe supply every square inch of the ground. The greenhouse cost $20,000. It contains ornamental alamandas from India, (palms from India and Brazil, and five specimens of eriens, kentias and latanias. Great space is given to gardenias, carnations, violets and roses. In connection with the green? house is a large grapery. From 20, 000 to 50,000 native and foreign trees and trees and shrubs have been plant? ed each year since 1887, including white and Colorado spruces, ten dif? ferent varieties of pines, maples, elms, birches and oaks. There are also or? chards of plums, pears and apples. A ceder cover has been grown for the English pheasants imported in 1891, which have multiplied rapidly enough to afford good shooting. North Carolina quail and all varieties of do? mestic fowls abound. The doctor originally imported a small flock of Southdowns, which have increased to nearly 200. The dairy, costing $85, 000, is supplied by seventy-five fine cows of various breeds. The barns are built of stone and wood. One farm contains the office in which is transacted the business of the farm. It is connected by telephone with all parts of the estate. Then there are repair and blacksmith shops and a grain elevator run by steam. The ca? pacity of the hay loft is 2,000 tons, and of the straw loft 1,000 tons. There is also a complete fire department. In the offices there bookkeepers who re? cord every fact of interest and meteo? rological reports are taken three times a day. There are 200 employes all the year round and their annual pay roll is $30,000. In the summer extra hands are employed. Dr. Webb's stables contain 400 hor? ses, hackneys, thoroughbreds, stand? ards, French coachers and ponies. His best horses are housed in a breed? ing barn of stone and wood 418x107 feet. It is the height of a four-story building, and is the largest barn in the world, having an exercising ring in the middle 375 feet long and eigh? ty-five feet wide. The interior is il? luminated by electric lights. In the harbor during the summer may be seen the doctor's fine steam yacht, besides smaller craft of every description. Altogether, it is a princely estate, well calculated to as? tonish those who are under the im? pression that Vermont is a State of small and sterile farms. But does the owner make a profit out of his farm? ing ? On this point nothing has ap? peared in print. Perhaps the farm is run at a dead loss simply to gratify a' rich man's fancy.?Atlanta Constitu-1 tion. Savfd Three Person*. It is not often that one has to record an act of heroism equal to that of Miss Marie Louise Evans, of Hythe, near Southampton, who succeeded the other day in rescuing three people from drowning by a combination of brilliant courage and skill. On the afternoon of Whit Sunday she was walkiDg on the pier with a friend when a boat containing three persons capsized just off the shore. Miss Evans, who is an accomplished swimmer, ran down the pier steps and sprang immediately into the water to their rescue. She brought one of the party, a woman, to shore, then returned at once tu the spot, where the others, a man and a girl, were struggling in the water, and actually succeeded in keeping them afloat until a rope was thrown from the pier. By means of the rope the man was got ashore, but the girl had a very narrow escape. She was sink? ing' for the third time when Miss Evans dived after her and brought her to the surface. It is difficult to speak in ordinary terms of praise of such a gallant feat as this?a feat which very few women, and not a great many men, could possibly ac? complish. ?Ph iladelphia Record. ?

A PRISONER'S LADDER. Usod for Climbing Out and Back When He Visited His Sweetheart. "Warden Patten, of the Indiana prison at Jeffersonville, has now on exhibition one of the most remark? able contrivances of a prisoner that ever came into his collection, says tho Vincennes Sun. It Is a ladder made of thousands of small pieces of twine, threads, cords and rope such as a convict would secretly collect through years of effort. With tho rope Thomas Shepherd used to climb a thirty-foot wall and get out of the penitentiary yard night after ni<jht to visit an old sweetheart. Ho never attempted to escape, and when his ladder was found one night he re? turned before his absence had been discovered, rang the bell at the front gate and surrendered himself. On his arm he carried a rubber coat, which had been used to conceal bis striped shirt. He wore moccasins over his shoes. Shepherd told a straightforward story, so far as It went. Ho bad made tho ladder, ho said, in order that he might visit a woman outside tho prison. He had gone to her houso only four times, he said. Tho other night when ho returned ho found his ladder gone from the wall and at once he decided to give him? self up. Ho would not tell tho wom? an's name, but the prison officials think they have discovered her iden? tity. She went from her home in Sullivan county, Ind., some years ago to live in Jeffersonville, near her convict lover. Shepherd said that he wove his ladder at night, and that it took him months to finish it. It contained threads, strings and bits of cords of every size, length and color. They were woven, knotted and twisted skillfully. Shepherd was sent to prison to servo a life sentence in 1875. Anew trial was secured two years later and he was recommitted on the same sentence on April 19, 1878. He hns continually petitioned for executive clemency and two years ago his sen? tence was commuted to twenty years. He will be released, conse? quently, on April 18, 1898. He was a country school-teacher. One night at an apple-paring he had a quarrel with a man named Macey Engle over a girl. Engle had Shepherd arrest? ed and ono night, before the caso was tried, Engle was assassinated. Shepherd was convicted on purely circumstantial tvidence and has always maintained his innocence! THE RETIRED BURGLAR. He Tells How He Came to Take Up Burglary as a Pursuit. "Curious, isn't it," said tho re? tired burglar, "how often our choice of occupation, and so of course our whole lives, may be determined by circumstances? I never had any particular inclination for the bur? glary business; in fact, I think my inclinations would naturally be rather against it. 'But when I was a very young man I suffered greatly from insomnia; I couldn't sleep nights and I couldn't keep awake 1 days. "Now, in these days, when things are kept going all the time, there are plenty of night occupations; if 1 had been born now I could have found plenty to do. But in those days things were slower; things used to stop at night, and people used to go to bed and begin again in the morning, and there was mighty lit? tle choice for a man in the way of night work. So I suppose it was natural enough for me to drift into the burglary business. ? "Well, I hadn't more'n fairly got settled down into it before my in? somnia left me and I had the worst time you ever heard of to keep awake nights. I didn't dare to sit down anywhere for fear I'd go to sleep. I think very likely that in reality this was a good thing for me, for I had to keep right on the alert every min? ute, and keep moving, and I dare say that that kept me many a time from getting into trouble; but still it always seemed a kind of pity that I couldn't nave got over the insom? nia just a little earlier than I did. You see, then, I should have gone into some other business, and I should have liked it better, I know." ?N. Y. Sun. ? The Sao and Fox Indians in Okla? homa appointed a day over a week ago for all their tribes to meet at one place and dance for rain. They also invited several neighboring tribes to join the ceremony. Large numbers of Indians met and danced until Sunday's flood came, and this so buoyed them up that they are still dancing, that more rain may come. Before they bef?an their festivities they moved their wigwams from the bottom to the bifrh lands, saying rains would flood the low lands. SHO THE YATES SHOE CO.

This proboscis has two holes through its entire length, aud it is. through them that piggy gets his supply of air.
