SI ill placed his hat on his head, and big knots stoodV.Jf out over his eyes. The gnmo went rather moro

u I Ching Chang Is in reality tho famous Ajeeb,; only bis raiment and bead aro different. But

U AJeob, by any other name and In any otherH i clothes, seems to play just as woll. He has had

""J Englishman, who often played withhim, twice beat the figure and twice bnd drawngames with hlin., HoTjad tho rare opportunity,therororo, of finding out tho automaton'smethod of acknowledging dofeat. It is to takehis king from tbo board, 'riils Englishman saidthat ono of the automaton's strongest polnlawas tho rapidity with which he would broak1 SJ!K ode,fenccj! aropnd a castled king.

"The Ilguro." says tho Kngllshman, " usuallyplays a giimn which gives hlin an attack of thiskind. When ho has the first movo ho openswith what Is called tho Oluoco Piano (or qulotgame), adopting for fourth nnd fifth moves,usually, the advanro of queen's pawn oneequaro nnd the castling of hi king. For thosixth movo he plays what Is often regardodas a weak move, advancing bis king arook a pawn one square,' which Willihim has a double object; first. It

his king's knight from being pinned,and next It gives that plcco n square lo movo to,which Is very seldom so occupied by good play-ers, yet affords n retreat whenco tho knight canbo very clToctually brought out nt tho right mo-ment. In tbo meantime his opponent has usual-ly brought out ha king's knight and castled,without tho precaution of providing agalnBt tbpinning of tho knight, a process which tho au-tomaton immediately attends to. after which, ithis opponent Is a weak player, tho automatonmakes very short work of him."

Hit. OEIIL'S ACETrLEXE ZA&IP.

An Invention In Which the Element of OnagerIs Nald to lie Lacking.

Henry Oehl, a John street watchmaker,. hasinvented a lamp for burning acotyleno cat Inwhich ho claims tho clement of danger presentIn most contrivances for tbo production of thegas Is lacking. This safety Is said to coroo fromtrcatmont of tbo. carbldo by a secret process.Tho lamp, ready, is a foot and a half high. Thebody of it Is n sort of urn of brass, nickel-plate-

with a capacity of ono and a half gallonsand open nt the top. In this urn'lssetthogasgenerating part of tbo lamp, terminating In thoburner. This consists of an inner and an outercylinder. Tho outer cylinder Is about fourInches In diameter and is open at the bottom.From fflo top projouts on ordinary gas burnerwith a cock. Tho Inner cylinder, or carbide

L --J

holder. Is four inches high andjsmnll enough tolit loosely in tho outer cylinder. The lump ofcarbldo, which may woigh as much as a poundnnd n hnlf in a lamp of this slzo, is put Into thiscylinder, tbo mouth of which is closed with agrating, on which tho carbldo rests. It lathen sot on a standard, tho grating beingdown and the open cud of the carbldo holdertip. Next the holder on Its standard Is in-serted in the outer cylinder und locked In withu spider at tho bottom.

Kvcrythlng is now ready for tho generation oftho gas, a gallon of water having been pouredinto the urn. Tbo outer cylinder containing thocarbide holder is set into tho urn. tho watermeets tho carbldo und decomposes it into liino,giving off acotyleno gas,which passes up throughtho cylinder into tho gas pipe. The secretprocess through which tho carbide is put pre-vents It from generating gas too fast foi; thoconsumption of tho burner, and bo, by pressure,forcing its way out throuah tho water. Tholight thus produced Is so white and vivid asto bo trying to the eyes until mitigated by a

when it becomes an excellent readingIght. Thoro Is no odor and llttlo heat.

Thero aro two drawbacks to this lamp. OneIs that It cannot bo turned down except veryslowly. Another Is that It cannot oo turnodout and loft standing, because tho continuinggeneration of gas would result in such apressure that it would forco Its way out. throughthe water. Danger of explosion from thiscause there Is none, the inventor says, tbo onlydifficulty being that tho gas would make, anunpleasant odor in tho room. When the lamp laturned out the cylinder should be removed. MrOchl has contrived a way to mitigate thisfault, although it docs not do away with it.Inside the urn Ib a support which will catchand hold the carbide bolder out of tho water.To stop tho worklng.of the lamp the light shouldbo turned off, the cylinder raised to this eun-nor- t,

and the lamp again ligbtod. There willstill be a generation of gas, because tbollinoof the decomposed carbldo rests on the gratingand acts as n sponge, furnishing moisture whichcontinues the work of decomposition for thirty-fiv- e

or forty minutes. Tho relighted lamp maybo left wltbpcrfoct safely. It will burn outwhen tho process of generation ceases.

COAZ, aONSVSIEtta SWINDLED.

The Old Short Vfelaht Fraud Bavtvaa by Cer-tain Itclall Dealer.

The retail coal dealers who are members ofthe Coal Trade Protective Association sny thatretail coal dealers who aro not members of theaosoclatlonlaro defrauding customers by moansof short weight. The short weight swindle asplayed by some retail dealers brought the wholocoal trade Into disrepute some years ago. Itcame to such a pass that the consumer whenhe bought a ton of coal never expected to gotfull weight. It was nt this time, coal dealerssay, that tho Coal Trade Protective Associationwan formed by honest dealers with the purposoof forcing dishonest deal rs to glvo full weight.Theysontout watchers and had tho coal wag-ons of suspected (I cnlers watched, advisingpurchasers to havo tho coal they rccolvod

In that way a large part of thofraud was stopped.

Iteccntly members of tho association heardmoro complaints,and the warfare was resumed.It was stated yesterday that In tbe past twomonths more than soventy-flv- e loads of coalin tho course of dolivery from suspected yardshad been rcweighed, and of tbeso fully So percont. had boen found to bo short weight. Tholoads reweighed wero all of them either ono ortwo ton loads, nnd tho nvcrage shortage was130 pounds to tho ton. With coal nt $0 a tunthat means a swindle of 'M rents a ton. Thoworst case that the agents of tho associationdetected, was in what was supposed to bo a two-to- n

load. Tho load really wolghcd only 3,470pounds. It was S30 pounds short. That Is,tho consumer was being cheated out of aboutSI 24

The' members of the Coal Trade ProtectiveAssociation want coal consumers to havo theircoal reweighed whenever they suipect that thowoight Is short. They say that if this is donotho swindling business will quickly be brokenup.

AMPLY CONFIRMED.

European IdeaB Verified inAmerica.

The Hast Important Suhjeet er the PrtsentBay Settled tlejond qnettlon.

The cable despatches which recently ap-

peared In tho dally papers Indicating the greatinterest felt throughout Europo upon n subjectof International Interest havo naturally awak-ened great attontlon. not to say excitement, Inthts city and throughout tho land. It Is a n

fact that tho demands of modom llfohave caused a strain which seems to shortenlife nnd undermine health universally. Thoefforts mado abroad to Investigate Its cause aremost commendnblo, nnd, wo aro pleated to say,havo boen supplemented by similar efforts InAmerica. Caieful Inquiry has been madeamong prominent physicians, and It Is surpris-ing what uniformity of opinion is expressed bythem all. That opinion seems to bo that thegreat modern dlscaso Is kidney trouble, and thattho kidneys aro tho first organs of tho body tobo attacked by overexertion or overindulgence,nnd the first to become weakened by the grip.That this is n most lamontablo fact thcro can bono doubt, but that theso troubles can bo pre-vented and cured thn Investigations madeabroad clearly show. In tho Interest of hu--

wo havo mado similar investigations,result Is given horentth.Inuinlty said: "People do not know

dlscaso Is. Tho term Is appliedpopularly to ovcry trouDlo mat. oven romoioiynffecta tho kldnoys. There nro two forms of thetrouble ono nn enlargement nnd tho other ashrinking of the kldnoys."

Dr. Fmnk T. Andrews says! "Tbo termBrlght's dlscaso covers a great many complaints.In fact, airy casoof nlhuminerln Is called Bright sdisease. Tho majority of thoso casos aro cur-able. The reason n man dies of kidney troubleis tbo inability of tho organ to perform its func-tions."

Dr. 8. Clarke declares: "There was a timewhen nny man or woman suffering from anyform of kidney trouble hndcauso for despair.That tlmo has pnssed. For tho past olghtyears I havo troatad every variety of kidneytroublo tn both men nnd women, nnd I do notbcllcvo there is n case so sovere, no matter ofhow long standing, that It cannot bo reliovcdorcured by tho caroful and conscientious use ofWarner's Safo Curo."

Dr. Charles W. Purdy says: "There aremany diseases grouped tinder the head ofBrlght's disease of tho kidneys. Ono of thomost serious forms is almost always accom-panied by heart troublo, which frequentlycauses tho death of the patient. The acute formwill Kill tho patient within n few years unlessho receive proper trentmont."

Dr. It. A. Gunn. dean of the United StatesMedical Colloge, declares: "For years tho treat-ment of Brlght's dlscnso has been largely experi-mental, I nm Independent enough nnd frankenough to commend most heartily that greatrcmedv Warner's Safe Cure."

Dr.A. B. Hnsmers afllrms: "Acute Brlght'sdtsoaso in children is curable. Tbo kidneys, yousee, are waste gates, nnd whon thoy aro par-tially closed trouble must result."

Dr. Tyre York of Washington, D. C, asserts:"I thing Wnrncr's nfo Curo a groat blessing tomankind, and if taken regularly will curo almostany disease of tho kldnoys. 1 prescribe it in mypractice."

Dr. C. Warrington Karle of Chicago says:"Diseases of the kidneys may be slight or ag-gravated. The object to bo attained is to limitthe overworked nnd worn-ou- t organs to as littleexercise us possible."

Dr. John W. Mnpes of Paris. 111., says: " I ama living example of the virtues of Warner's SafeCure, without which I should long slnco havebeen dead."

Throughout tho land, whorevor Investigationhas been made, tbe sentiment seems to be tbosamo.

The above nnquestioned and unquestionabletestimony proves beyond a doubt that Brlght'sdlscaso of the kidneys can be cured. Mr. War-ner knew whereof lie affirmed, for ho himselfhad been cure of Brlght's dlscaso In its worstform. If nny reader has peculiar pains, strangosensations, or unaccountable feelings, which fartoo often announco the coming on of kidneytrouble, there Is no need to despond; tbero isevery reason for hopo. A cure has been foundand proven beyond question or tbo possibility ofdoubt Adv.
