city.City Engineer Tostevln has a force of men
-working on the Nineteenth avenue sewer
lowering the bed about six Inches. For some
tlmo the sewer has been clogged up. It Is
a five-foot structure and the largest 4n tbo
city. Heretofore It has only received the
surface or storm drainage , the house sewers
discharging through a two-foot sewer that
ran parallel to the larger drain. Recently
all the obstructions In the. largo sewer fern
n distance of100 feet were removed , and It
was decided to turn the house drainage Into
It In order that a constant stream of water
Bhall bo kept flowing through It and thus
prevent It clogging up again. To do this
the entire bottom Is being taken out -and
after taking out tbo foundation for a dls-
tanca of six Inches relald.

Local Justices of the peace have been frc
fluently exercised over the problem of costs
In criminal eases. There Is a general sec
tion In the Iowa laws that prevents the de
fendants being committed to Jail for costs
when they are punished by being sentenced
to pay n fine and the costs of prosecution ,
livery fellow who has been punished In thU
way for years has deemed It to bo a part of
his religious duty to refuse to pay the costs ,
and unless ho has property that can be seized
under an execution the taxpayers have to
pay the costs. Yesterday Judge Smith called
the attention of sonic of the Justices to sec
tion -IS1 of the cede , which provided under
certain circumstances that the defendant
may be committed until both fine and costs
are paid. The modifying conditions are
covered by n decision In16 Iowa , page CB5.
It Is probable that hereafter several dollars
will bo saved to the taxpayers by the ob-
sirvanco of this decision.

The Chicago University Glee and Mandolin
clubs made a decided hit at the Dohany
theater last evening. Their reception waa en
thusiastic nnd they responded to the gen
erous applause by many a well-rendered en
core. Society was out In full force nnd the
young men from the World's fair city have
no reason to complain of the manner In
whMi they were petted and made much of
during their entire slay In Council Dluffa.
They came In on the noon train from Sioux
City and were received nt the Grand hotel
by several of the members of tlrts Field club ,
under whose auspices the entertainment last
night woo given. In the afternoon the
women ot St. Paul's church tendered the
members of the club a reception In the or
dinary at the Grand , which was largely at-
lemlcd. The concert In the evening waa a
treat of melody and fun. Everything went
with the characteristic college dash. From
the opening number " ' " '
, "El C'apltau , Sousa's
ringing march , to the parting yell of the
university , tbcro wasn't n hitch. Some of
.he funny numbers were original and proved
10 end of merriment and applauao. The
'Foot Hall Song" started a aeries of funny
niuslc.il sketches. To three encores the glee
club responded with us many iiow soled Ions.
A callsthcnlc oxcrclao to music ami BHIHO
funny singing brought down the house. Mr.
Davidson took upon himself tha heavy role
of comedian and did It quite well. Ho has
a delightful voice , line expression and a
lightning change artist facial expression.
A very acceptable specialty was introduced
by Mr. Dain , In several whistling selections ,
lie was applauded to the echo , but seemingly
bad an abbreviated repertoire , as ho failed to
respond with an encore. Mr. Davidjon tsng
"Tho Yale Serenade" with good effect. Mr.
Slncero's rendition of the "Southern Sere

received. After the con
cert there was a ball at Odd Fellows' hall ,

It Is a general Idea among scientific men
that wo arc on the cvo of great scientific
discoveries. This Idea has been cnRcmlcreJ
by the scientific developments of the past
year. Sotno of these have been In a meas
ure epoch making ahd nro likely to provide
humanity with many things of the highest
utility which It dors not now possess.
Subjoined arc some opinions from men
of known eminence and authority In their
nspectlve specialties , as to what , of special
sclcntlllc and Industrial value , the year Just
begun seems likely to bring forth.

KimME.OF TUB X HAYS.
I believe the future development of the
X rays phenomena will be lu the direction
of surgical diagnosis. It Is aa great a boon
to mankind ns the Invention of the ophthal
moscope and Just as the latter Instrument
has proven Its worth from the first day
to this and has saved thousands of people
from total blindness oo will the X ray
be beneficial to the human race nnd save
llfo nnd limb of thousands of sufferers
It will , of course , need to bo greatly tin
proved. The one essential quality which prevents
vents us so far from applying It to the
dccscat part of the body with perfect mic
cess Is Its propensity for traveling It
straight lines , piercing or rather balni ,
entirely absorbed by Intervening bodies
Light rays do not necessarily go through al
substances as Is well known , and they are
not nil absorbed , except when falling 01
certain substances which arc called from
their appearances dead black. It bclim
practically Impossible to reflect X rays to
any great extent wo might still resort to
diffusing them , that Is , to allowing then
to be thrown back from any surface In a
more or leos regular way. Such a feat
would enable uq to Inspect special sections
of the body , which we arc not now able to
Inspect with considerable accuracy.
Concerning the harmful physical effects of
X-rays spoken of EO much recently , 1 do not
believe It to be , as has been asserted , the
result of chemical action. As we go along
the light spectrum the chemical effect gets
weaker and weaker as wo approach
the violet and ultra violet light.
That some persons have really suf
fered , however. Is an Indisputable fact , but
I think It Is the result of mechanical cfice's.
The atmospheric dust particles surrounding
the X-ray or Crookcs' tubes , are charged
with electricity and have a tendency to bo
thrown violently away from the tube. They
would constantly strike the skin and within
n comparatively short time greatly Irrltato
It. A person working constantly with tlissc
rays should therefore protect Ills hands \ylih
gloves and his eyes ; ' with glasses. That X
rays may bo utilize for .other purposes Mich
as metallurgy , chemistry , etc. , Is the fond
hope of many experimenters , but It docs not.
I think , present an.eiicpurachiE . Held for re
search In this direction. .

NEW USES OF'6bMPRESSEU AIU.
No other branch of science , with perhaps
the exception of tho'X-rays , has made such
advances In the pasti > cat as compicsscd air.
As n result of the efforts of the manufactur
ers of air compressors , "n largo number of
factories , machine shops nnd other Industries
have adopted nlr as'ai mean's of power trans
mission.
The Third Avenue 'railroad ' ; and' the Met
ropolitan railroad company have experiment
ed with both the Hardlb and Hoadlcy mo
tors , and the results hie proving satisfac
torily. One' oT UncTVS.fim'o cra'cK gunboats ,
the Terror , has berfn 'fully equipped with
compressed air apparatus , for the operation
of Its machinery and the firing of guns. Con
tractors are using the compressed air cen
tral plants , the most notable Instance being
the excavation of the Jerome park reservoir
In Now York , and running the Pullman
Palace Car company's shop tools at their

power. The volume of technical 1'ter.Uuro
has been augmented by the appearance of n
quaint little magazine devoted to the use
ful application of compressed air.
An air conveyer that carrlcn material
along on an L'.C cushion has been patentee ) .
Innumerable hoists and sundry machines
to take the place of hand and steam power
have been adopic.l.
An ofBco building In New Yorlc has been
equipped with comprcsf-od air , that Its
tenants may take- advantage ol its many
applications which range from the clean
ing of carpets to the cooling of the temper
ature in the offlces. Another building In
( Milrago runs all Its clocks by It. For the
future , nnd perhaps , within the coming year ,
we may expect to sco Important develop
ments. A practical and economical motor
Is needed. Street railways will probably
look Into Its merits. Conservative manu
facturers who have held aloof will follow
the example of the progressive ones and
adopt It. The era of compressed air is upon
va and wo will soon use It as plentifully In
the Industries of the world as we now use
our "tender nurse , the air , " each moment
of our lives. A , E. KI5NNEY.

TRANSMISSION OP ELECTRIC POWER.
One of the greatest electrical develop
ments In the past year hau been the
utllliatlon of Niagara Falls for producing
electric power. I think the moral effect cf
this great achievement will ultimately re
sult In changing the general aspect of many
city and country districts. This will be
because of our lately expanded capacity for
and transmitting It over long distances.
Instances already become numerous , but If
the work goes on at the present rate , power
transmission plants will soon be among the
commonplaces of electrical enterprise. What
Is more particularly noticeable Is that dis
tances of twenty or thirty miles no longer
count , at least In this country. Perhaps
the bcrit Instance * In Europe Is still the
ninctecn-mllo transmission from the Kalln
of Tlvoll to Rome , but here examples of
that magnitude multiply. The American
cities that have absorbed distant water
powers Just as they abBorb suburbs are by
no means few. Buffalo lias reached out
electrically twenty-two miles to Niagara ;
Fresno , thlrty-fivo mjlos to the San Joaquln
river ; Portland , fourste.cn milts to the Wll-
lamctto ; San Ilcrnartllno , twenty-nine miles
to the San Antonio .mountains ; Hartford , a
doien miles to tha iFarmlngtan river ; Salt
Lake City , a goodr.itan miles to the Dig
Cottonwool ] canyon and the Wahsatch lakes ;
Sacramento , moro tllsn ( twenty-two miles to
Folsom. K i
With this capacity ) /Or transmitting heat ,
light and power over miles of open country ,
there seems to bo uo reason why the smoke
nuisance with Its ? all Infective dangers
should not soon bo n tblni ; of the past and
the air of densely .populated clllca become
as pure as that of tbo most Isolated country
district. -i , x T. C. MAUTIN.

FROM STEAM TO.ELECTRICITY.
One of the great telontlflc advances of the
past year has been Mil the dlroctlon of elec
tric railroading. The advance , however , has
taltcn a unique direction. It t > ccms that en
gineers , having done all they can do on the
natural level , are seeking to oncompaHS In
accessible mountain peaks and pastes , or
when these uro lacking , goln , ; beneath the
surface. As an cxamplo of the first category
wo Inivo at least forty mountain roads li <
Switzerland , among which the Jungfrau
scheme Is a recent Instance. Examples of
thu second class may bo found In the suc
cessful underground system of Dmlupcsth ,
thu electric equipment of additional London
sub-surface roads and the proposed under
ground rapid transit schemes In Now York
City. The Instances In both eases might bo
greatly multiplied , All this portends a near
and great Improvement In the general rapid
transit system of the world. The develop
ment of ordinary surface roads In the United
States , while It lias not reached a. climax ,
has advanced wonderfully In nearly every
largo city In the country except New York
City , and even ( hero the general adoption nf
electric traction la only a question of tlmo.
Three trolley roads reaching , ns they do , out
Into the suburbs and connecting cities , vil
lages and towns , arc forcing the steam rail
roads ( o great lengths In the matter ot suc
cessful competition. I think the ultimate re
sult of this will bo the widespread resort
to electric power on steam railroads. Al
ready we * have had evidence of It In the II.
& 0. tunnel In Ilaltlmoro , the N. Y. & N. II.
at New Haven , places on the Uurllngton &
Mt. Holly branch nf the Pennsylvania road
In Now Jersey nnd at Nnutnsket Il.'ach on
the N. Y. , N. H. & II. Altogether , 1 think
that the epoch of general electric lallroad-
Ing Is well started. JOSKI'HVETHLKlt. .

UTILITIES KllO.M TUB KITE.
Some very notable advancra have been
In tha sclcnco ot kite Hying during the past
year. Tie ! great utility of the kite for mili
tary purposes has been conclusively proved.
In the line of signaling , especially , the kilo
ha aliown Ita adaptability oven more- than
the captiveballoon. . Our recent feat nt
Bayoimo , N. J. , of carrying a telephone
wire through the air on a kite-string and
dropping" It to the earth 1,000 feet away
from where the kite was anchored , so that
signals could bo transmitted back and forth.
U another dl.itlnct advance In the nclcnco.
Ita practical utility Is great and could I
have been In the rear of General Grant at
VlcVa'ourg , for Instance , with such ti device , I
would have ? been able to have exchanged
niftsagca with the confederated pent up In
the city. It could be accomplished during
any clcgc. In fact , anil during the night tlmo
when It ? presence would not be known to
an enemy.
However the advances of the past year
have been In n measure conclusive and I
think the next development will ho In the
line of midnight air photography. Hy this
I mean the taking of pictures In cameras
suspended from the kite string at night.
Large city districts have been accurately
photographed by means of kites during the
daytime but no midair kilo photographs
hnvo been taken nt night. I nm experi
menting In this direction nnd I nm con
vinced that very satisfactory nnd useful re
sults will ultimately be reached. With n
highly sensitive pinto manipulated In midair
I am confident of being able to photograph
objects on the earth below which could not
bo distinguished by the human eye. If this
condition actually exists , midnight kilo
photography will have n wide military ap
plication. Fortifications nnd hostile camps
could bo accurately pictured nnd the condi
tion of an enemy became known to a gen
eral whoso fee need not know ho Is In ' .ho
neighborhood. The Idea would bo useful
nlso In time of peace In photographing largo
assemblages , celebrations , multitudes of
people , or exhibitions.
WILLIAM A. EUDY.
MILITARY SCIENCE.
It seems to bo the general opinion among
United Stales army officers that the devel
opment of military science In the Immedi
ate future will bo In the direction of sim
plified fortifications , greater utilization of
* . .w m tiu uuu uiu exicaucu use 01 some
form of automatic gun. The modern army
engineer sees little use In raising great
mounds of earth such as used to bo done
when hasty and oven permanent works
were needed. The bigger the earthwork the
greater the mark for the enemy's guns. A
hole Jn the ground has been the theoretical
formula for fort building and now that we
possess Held pieces with disappearing car
riages It can be practically carried out. A
gun that Is capable of rising out of an In
nocent looking hole , pouring forth great
volleys of death-dealing bullets and then
sinking out of sight , leaving hardly a trace
of Its presence nnd certainly nothing to fire
at. Is certainly formidable enough to Invest
the new theory with all needful logic. It
would bo to an enemy what the hollow road
near Waterloo was to the culrrasslcrs of
Napoleon.
In his last report , General Mller recom
mended the greater uso-of the bicycle for
military purposes. Ho even Intimated the
desirability of establishing n completely
equipped bicycle corps. This has been
openly discussed at Governor's Island and
Is accepted there as his opinion of the most
probable advance of the near future. So
far , bicycles have been used In the army
for orderly or despatch duty. A much sim
pler 'form of wheel will have to bo
adopted , however , before bicycling be
comes a factor In army life. The present
diamond frame machine Is , despite Its light
ness , much too cumbersome. Captain Gerard
lias overcome the difficulty .In France by
Inventing a special form of folding bicycle.
It has proved to be well adapted for general
use. Twenty-two men of the Eighty-
seventh Infantry recently made a successful
tour of 1,200 miles On It , each man getting
off his wheel nnd carrying it on his back over
rough places , 300 separate times during
the Journey.
The rlfio of the future will bo the auto
matic rlllc. This Is the conclusion of mili
tary men not only of this but of other
countries. General Wlllc , a German army
expert on the subject of flro anna says
decisively that It will ultimately bo the
rlflo In general use by the armies of the
world. Its particular point of merit Is Ita
capacity for doing away with the mechanical
operation of loading. In effect It docs its
own loading , leaving the soldier free to
attend to the business of firing , thus con
centrating his attention on his opponent and
emlerlng his aim surer. As pointed out
iy General WIllo the force of the recoil of
.he automatic gun Is employed for charg-
ng nnd closing the breech and the firer
ias only to 1'ct off the shot In order to again
oad the weapon , so that the number of
shots discharged without an effort Is pre
cisely the same as the total contents of the
Magazine. The only comparatively weak
art of the automatic gun lies In Its springs
) iit as they have been found after tests made
n Austria to withstand the wear and tear
of from 10.000 to 14,000 discharges , this
Iocs not count for much.

The girls of the Do Long Industrial school
vero given a very pleasant surprise yester
day afternoon. The children mot at 2:30 : , as
usual , nnd began the singing and devotional
xerclses. They had not proceeded far when
'rof. Hlsey , superintendent of the public
chools. arrived with his nlionozranh. Ho
ave the children .1 very plain and Interesting

; uccd a variety of selections from records

Hlsoy used was the one ho took with him to
the teachers' convention at DCS Molncs last
week , where ho gave a practical Illustration
of some of I''s methods of toacfilng. At
the close of the little concert some folding
doors separating the main hall from a rear
room wore opened and the children Invited
to step In. They were agreeably surprised
to find four long tables , spread with an
abundance of good things. There was ample
room for all , and It Is needless to say that
Justice was done to the feaat. Rev. Henry
Do Long nnd wlfo have planned a largo
number of surprises for the children In the
past , and by this means have brought Min-
shlno to many little lives.
