PROJECT FOR CROSSING PNEUMATIC

—_ —

THE OCEAN IN

TUBES.

Colonel John H. Pierce, of Plantsville, Conn., said to a reporter that as yet little was known outside his room of his plan for con- necting this continent with the Old World by, means of pneumatic tubes. Some statement

of a brief nature has been made to a_ local paper. Only withina day, almost, has it been developed to its present stage. In re-

sponse to a request te give the facts the inven- tor was full of enthusiasm, but spoke with care and precision and with the air of a man who knew whereof he affirmed.

‘*Yes, I believe my plan is a practical one. This country can be connected with Europe by means of pneumatic tubes of large propor- tions. When the theories are reduced to practice they may be modified to some ex- tent.”

‘“‘How would they be laid and operated ?”

‘‘After the manner of the cables, as I will hereafter explain. We will be obliged to have them laid exactly straight, or as near straight as the surface of the globe will per- mit. They will be operated by currents of air, but on principles quite different in some respects from those governing the small lines now in use; the general principles remain the same. Of course the tubes will always be in couples, with currents of air driven through them, the current in one tube always moving in an opposite direction from the other.”

** Will it not be difficult to force currents of air the distance you contemplate ?”

““Oh, no. The speed of this current can be made as great as desired, and with scarcely any limit, by simply using a great number of steam fans on the principle of those used in blast furnaces,”

‘* The tubes must be large enough to admit of passengers, of course, yet small as possible. I would have individuals sit tandem, one ahead of the other, you see. Friction? That would be prevented by ball bearings—neces- sary appliances. The motion would hardly be perceptible to the passenger. It is hard to speculate upon the speed attainable. One hundred miles an hour would be the easiest thing in the world ; 1,000 miles an hour is not impossible with polished steel surface for tube lining and exterior friction we could pro- vide for. The speed, owing to the curvature of the earth’s surface will tend to overcome all weight and make the pressure greatest on the upper portion of the tube, when run- ning at the maximum speed. Think of going to London in such a way and in such time as that !”

Colonel Pierce said that it would not cost a very large sum to build an experimental line for a short distance, say a few miles. His plan has been submitted in its details to several experts, and has met with approval. The great question with the inventor at the present time is to get the necessary funds to carry forward the work, for he is a man _ of comparative little capital. He feels confident that in the end he will receive the recognition and encouragement which bis work deserves. — Boston Globe.

— A Victim of Cigarettes. THEY ARE LARGELY TO BLAME FOR THE DEATH OF A MEDICAL STUDENT.

When Russell H. Knevals, a New York medical student was found dead in bed recently, groundless rumors of suicide and opium poisoning were circulated. He was more the victim of tobacco in the shape of cigarettes than anything else. The coroner has given the results of it as follows to a reporter: ‘‘I found the heart flabby and fatty | and a decided enlargement of the liver and spleen—both the results of the tobacco habit,” he said. ‘‘You see it is not every man who can smoke with impunity, and although Mr. Knevals was 28 years old and a stout man, it resulted in his death. There is nicotine in tobacco, whether manufactured into cigars, cigarettes, chewing or smoking tobacco, and the result is always the same—poison. To- bacco contains two deadly poisons, nicotine and empyreumatic oil. One drop of nicotine in a state of concentrated solution would im- mediately destroy a dog, and birds perish at the approach of a tube containing the fluid, the mere smell killing them. Tobacco taken in any form quiets restlessness, calms mental and corporal inquietude, and produces a gen- eral languor or repose. A liberal] use of the narcotic gives rise to confusion of the head, vertigo, stupor, faintness, nausea, vomiting and a general depression of the nervous and circulatory functions which, if increased. eventuates in alarming and even fatal prostra- tion, as was the case with young Knevals. The symptoms of its excessive use and action are severe retching, distressing and continued nausea, a feeble pulse, coolness of the skin, fainting and convulsions. The symptoms of tobacco heart are a coated tongue, a sluggish pulse and heart, an anxious, haggard expres- sion, and heavy, bleared eyes, with the whites discolored to saffron, and worst of all, inter- mittent heart pulsations.

‘* Manufactured tobacco contains more nic- otine than the raw material, and combustion while smoking always increases the quantity. I believe that a pipe which allows the partial evaporation or absorption of nicotine the best —or rather, the least harmless—to smoke. The cigar, which allows some evaporation by its wrapper, is far less injurious than the paper-wrapped cigarette, as the paper neither absorbs no permits the evaporation of nico- tine. 1 smoke perhaps 10 cigars a day with- out harm, but I should never think of smok- ing 10 cigarettes. Grant smoked vast quanti. ties of strong cigars, which only affected his throat and not his heart, but few men could have done it. Young Kuevals is said to have smoked 60 cigarettes a day. That’s a fearful dose.”

The Volapuk Language.

INTENDED AS A MEANS OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN DIFFERENT NATIONS

Seven years ago, says the San Francisco Call, a Catholic priest named Schleyer, a linguist of some celebrity in Germany, gave tothe world, as the result of a lifetime of study what he termed a universal lan- guage,and named it Volapuk language.

Volapuk is defined world’s speech, from vol, meaning world, and puk, speech. The most is taken from the English language, the others being represented Zaccording to their importance. The pronunciation is arranged to be easy for all nations; the letter ‘‘ R,” therefore, is seldom used. If that letter is contained in English words when brought into Volapuk, it is changed toL. All the letters are English. The consonants are pronounced as in English and the vowels like Spanish. Every word is spelt phonetically, there being no silent

letters. The rules of the Volapuk gram- mar have no exception. It even goes so far that plurals from the pronoun I (ob)

are formed regularly by adding an s (obs), the same way as with every noun, Adjec- tives and verbs can be formed from every noun by adding the syllables ‘‘ik” or *‘on.” Certain syllables are used to save memor- izing a large vocabulary; an instance is the syllable “‘le” which, when prefixed to any word, expresses the same general idea in a larger degree. House in Volapuk is ‘‘dom.” The prefix gives the word ‘“‘ledom” mean- ing palace, The syllable ‘‘lu” prefixed to a word denotes the same idea ina smaller sense. Using the same example, ‘‘ludom” is cottage. These two syllables alone save the memorizing of 100 words. Out of a classification of 900 words it is necessary to memorize but 302 syllables. Volapuk is so arranged that in translatioa all peculiari- ties of style are retained. To one unaccus- tomed to the sound of the language it seems strange, but its harmony grows upon the ear. The whole grammar is con- tained in four small pages. Such gram- mars are printed yearly in twenty-five different languages.

When the language was first given to the world its advocates were mostly Germans. It subsequently came in great favor with the Dutch. Now, in every large city throughout the world there are clubs, some very strong, devoted to the study of the language.

The thought of inventing a universal language was prompted by the difficulties experienced by German immigrants in America. The language is not designed to supersede any of the living ones, but to be a means of intercommunication between people having no common tongue.

Volapuk literature has assumed larger proportions, most of the cl in the principal ancient and modern languages having already been translated into it. A new dictionary of the language has just been issued in two books of 175 pages each. At present there are eight journals printed wholly or partly in the language, all of which are well supported by the adherents of Schleyer’s novel tongue.

Give Them a Chance!

That is to say, your lungs. Also all your breathing machinery. Very wonderful machinery it is. Not only the larger air- passages, but the thousands of little tubes and cavities leading from them.

When these are clogged and choked with matter which ought not to be there, your

lungs cannot half do their work. And what they do, they cannot do well. Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumonia,

catarrh, consumption or any of the family of throat and nose and head and lung ob- structions, all are bad. All ought to be got rid of. There is just one sure way to get rid of them. That is to take Boschee’s

German Syrup, which any druggist will sell you at 75 cents a bottle. Even if

everything else has failed you, depend upon this for certain.
