We did not publish it then, hut later a clipping from some paper giving credit to the Barnwell Sen tinel was sent us. Under what was taken from The Sentinel appeared three or four linos, but we had no way of knowing what paper that comment came from. So we gave the Sentinel credit fur what TheTimesclaims to have written. But if The Times did write the matter in question, we hasten to accord it credit for it, but must he allowed .to note that the verv same matter ^idea. if n?t words) was sent to its some weeks ago. A Cold Stove. ii ilie accounts given of it are correct, says the Literary Digest, Prof. W. L Moore, chief of the weathpr bureau. has invented a device by which a hot room can be cooled as simply and inexpensively as a cold room is heated by a stove. The apparatus consists ol an automatic blower hy which outside air is drawn in, cooled and thrown out into the room; and the degree of cold produced is dependent on the volume of air so treated, which is itself regulated by the difference in the temperature of the outer and inner air. A reporter of the New York Herald describes the machine in operation, partly in his own language and partly in I'rof. Moore's One of the machines, he says, is set up in a corner of a long room at the Weather bureau. It is a cylinder ol galvanized iron, about two and a half feet in diameter and extending from near the floor almost to t he ceiling, with a stove pipe going out through the wall at the top. At the bottom is an other short pipe, with its mouth elose to tlie iloor. Prof. Moore refuses as yet, to disclose the pre else modus operandi ; but the visitor noted that, while the outer air was 85 decrees, the air in the room was 04, and that which was pouring out of the lower pipe was ?>G, I'rof. Moore explrined : "You will notice that one of the windows is open at the top. Through that opening the denser cool air steadily forces the warmer air overhead, so that there is a continual change. The action of the machine depends on gravity. The pipe at the top brings in warm air, which is dried, washed and partly cooled in the upper part of the machine. Descending: int the lower part it is thorough! cooled and then passes out an into the room. The operation dependent on the difference i specific gravity between the war and the cool air. This regulati the machine in such a manui that it works faster when tl weather is hot and more slow] when the weather is cold. If tl thermometer today fell to G5 d arees the machine would str working at its own accord. It automatic, but no machinery < power is required to work it." The reporter noticed nn ii crustation of snow and icich j all around the bottom of tl cylinder, and 1'rof. Moore e: ; plained that they were moistuj condensed from the air of tl room. lie added : "The nn chine makes real cold, as yc see. It has to he charged oik a day, and the composition tisei which is a secret, contains n ammonia, nor any of tha it gredients of ordinary freezin mixtures. The machine meant chielly to cool houses.
