Others who yet survive. This was as
early a* 17&3, or earlier, and before Ful
ton’s name had ever been mentioned in
connection with steam navigation.
"There is no reliable evidence from
history to show that Fitch was the In
ventor of steam navigation in this
country, from the fact that the progress
in that art cannot he traced back to (
him; but it can be traced to Hottert j
Fulton, and from him directly to Capf
Samuel Morey, and nowhere else. It
is settled beyond ail question that ,
Morey bad launched his boat on the ;
waters of Vermont before Fulton had j
accomplished the same thing in New
York. It is also a well-established fact
that Fulton visited Morey at Fairlc<
for the purpose of witnessing his suc
cessful experiment before he himself
bad launched any kind of a steam craft;
and it can he shown that Morey had
been engaged in such experiment^ for j
years before,"
Capt. Morey on this first trip suc
ceeded In making four miles an hour
against the current. This first steam
boat was a rough craft with crude ap
paratus. It was propelled by a paddle
o' wheel at the bow. and the engine also
was located near the bow.
Morey after this first trip visited New
York and consulted with Fulton and
Livingston In regard to his Invention,
showing them the model. They
thought favorably of his invention,
but advised him to place the engine in
the middle or side of the boat rather
than In the front part, and his paddle
wheel in the rear.
rapt. Morey now made a much larger
boat. This also was propelled by steam,
and the power was applied to a paddle- ;
wheel in the stern, ft was also fitted
with paddlewheels on the sides, which I
could be turned by hand power. The |
boat was called the Aunt Sally, and was 1
painted white and adorned with fan- |

of the south and rn»d* Ms headquarter*
at on* of the big hotels uptown, aay*
the Mew York Tribune To those who
called upon hlto at the hotel he told |
a funny story about bis experience ,
among the negroes of the south. H#
went down with a party to on* of the
fashionable winter r**orte along the |
coast. On* Hunday b* wa* told of a
service that was to b* held at a col
ored Methodist church several ml)** In
land. It. was suggested that tb" party |
attend these services, and accordingly
carriages were ordered and the drive
wa* made The rest of th* story is
tv t told In Ms own language. He
said:
“When we arrived at the church we
found that It was to be a sort of special
ervlce to raise money to pay off a
ebiirch debt. They had recently erect
ed a new church, and it was only part- j
ly paid for. The local bishop bad been
summoned and a great effort was being
made to get the money. When we
had taken our seat* a colored brother
cam* around and asked us If we would
not go to the front, but we declined. In j
the course of his remarks the bishop \
dwelt upon the good work that bad
been done In the name of the Redeem- j
er, and called upon everyone present to
contribute something toward paying off
the great debt that the church had as
sumed in building a new bouse of wor
ship, He said that the debt was $142.25,
and that It must be met. His elo
quest plea reached our hearts, and we
made up a little purse among otir
selve* and ralf"/l ) 100. The money was
handed to me, and 1, when the plate
was passed around, laid a crisp $100
bill on the plau;. While the money
»?.t b<-lng counted a song service was ;
held. It was plainly evident to us that
something unusual was going on, and
there was a subdued air of excitement
among those counting the money. Fi
nally the bishop stepped to the front
and raised his hand. The music
ceased at onoe. He began to speak
very gravely, and Imagine our aston
ishment when he said: ‘Brethren, we
have met with remarkable success In
our efforts today. We have received
enough money to pay off the debt and
a surplus of $14.12 that Is, providin’
the bill whlrh the gentleman from the
north gave us is genuine.' "

A corresponding member of the Paris
Academy of Medicine has cent to that
learned body a memoir in which he
maintains that the numerous cases of
chlorosis, neurosis, and neurasthenia
observed among young girls Is due to
learning to play on the piano and to
the hours devoted to practicing. 11c
has drawn up careful statistics from
which he concludes that, among 6,000
pupils obliged before attaining the age
of 12 to learn to play the piano, nearly
12 percent suffer from nervous troubles.
The author does not attempt to draw
up statistics of the victims among per
sons who have to listen to their per
formances.—British Medical Journal.

In the Compte* flcndns an account
Is given of some flat winding ropt
mad' by liclgfan maeblne builders for
use in Ibe deep collieries of the Moris
and Charleroi districts, The largest of
these is Intended to lift a load of six ,
and one half tons, made up of three and
one-half tons weight of cage and *1* j
tubs and three tons net load of coal I
from a depth of 1,200 metres (2,227 1
feet). The rope* are made of Manilla
aloe fibre of a flat section, with ten
strands tapering in breadth and In
thickness. The average weight p"r j
metre Is 11 kilograms 121.2 pounds),
giving for the length of 1.260 metres a
weight of 14,25 tons for each rope. The j
working strain will be Wi kilograms
per square centimetre (1,22ft pounds ja-r .
square Inch) at tbe thick and 110 kilo
gram* (I 564,5 pounds per square Inch)
at the thin end. The winding engine*
are Intended to be worked with steam
at four atmospheres boiler pressure, j
and to be capable of bringing the load
from the bottom of the mine to the
hank In 65.4 revolutions. These are the
first 10-stranded rope* that have been
made In aloe fibre, and It Is expect'd
that their life will be about two years, !
Flat steel ropes are also In use at what

are made of eight parallel four
