Et WaVA 3uilt by1 Oliver Evans, Who C6uldn't Lny Up, Moner. The real inventor of the locomotive never realized a cent frome his Invon tion. H1s name was Oliver Iirans. le wils bornr In Delaware in 170) and spent all his life Perfecting inventions which were destined to bring lin1 nothing but more poverty. le was the original in ventor or they high pressure eng'no used fin locomotives, the only kind that could be employed to advantago in this form of transporltfoil, but realized nothing Unr his idea. 11. lI)A!Cpietion of the notion to both land and water power was somewhat novel. Inl 1-1l tie unilepality of Philadel 1.l: essd for bids for the dredglng of the river ard the cleaning of the (locks. Nyalns3 put ini a bid lower than any of lis competitors and wien it was ac p ied mlet-erprlmwd to buiki a steam Joat to d tile work. ie fitted out a scow with a steam angine, building both the engine and the --ow in his own workshop. \ sen the boat was ready to be launched Evains determined to give the PCOplIe of 'lhiladlp1ihla an object lesson in mreclanics, so he put the boat on wheels, litted up a push wheel behind, set his engine to work and propelled the boat through the streets to the riv er in tihe midst of an open mouthed throng. not a few of whom bad a dim Idea that he ought to be arrested for witcheraft. When the boat reached the bank of the river, the wheels and axles were, takei off, the cra ft was launched, fitted out with other wheels anid illade to do the wVork of dredging tire harbor. So far as the invention of muechani eIl (evi(ces wvent Evais had a splendid genius-, blit when dollars and eents came10 up for consideration lie was a mere child, and even allowed himself to lie cheated out of tile m1one0Y that was due him for cleaning tire Philadel phia harbor with his new fangled steamboat. The extreme cold of the past winter -a temperature of 20 below zero which hit a large belt of the peach growing territory in Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma has probably finished up the peach crop for this seson, if it hAq not destroyed the trees root and branch. Where one has a Peach orchard so lilt a careful examination should be made of each tree to see if the injury extends to the trunk and root system. If it does the tree may as well be sent to the brush pile, but if the injury is simply confined to the last season's growth of wood and the fruit buds the tree may be saved by a vigorous prun ing, cutting all of the injured wood in May, when a new growth will be thrown out and the tree become all right in two or three years. The Fish Net. A curious custom was at one time in vogue at Gloucester, Mass., which il lustrates the sacredness wileh seems to surround a fish let and the protec tion which the law affords that class of property. Whenever it became neces sary to quarantine a house because .of smallpox or other contagious disease tile quarantine was efl'ected by string 1ng nets arbout tile building on the out side. The penalty for disturbing a net was so great that no one dared to med dIe with tihe barrier. A Human Compass. Little Jack--What did papa mean by saying thlat he was the captain of this ship ? Ma--Oh, that is only his way of saying that lhe Ia the head of the house. Little Jnck-If pa is captain, then wnat are you? Mat-Well, I suppose I ami the pilot. Little Jack-Oh, yes, and then I must be the compass. Ma-The comlpass? Why the compass? Little Jack--Wiry, tire captain and pilot are always boxing the compass, you know! The mtter Truth.
