Aocotdiug to the statement of John C Sharp, a capitalist of S:ilt Lake, I'tah, the World is shortly to be startled by an invention that will eclipse the greatest achievements of Tesla and Kdison. .Mr. Sharp is the financial backer of the pro ject, but the inventor is Professor Tan- trove, a French engineer, now at Seattle. The invention, Sharp says, involves the production of heat and power for all scientific, industrial and military purposes direct Inni the rays of the sun, and by s process so cheap that Ihe greatest revolu tion ol the day is protnisi d. The greatest wotk to be done by this inventiou is on the battlefield, ami it is the hope to clay a leading part in the war now in progress in China. Tho in ventor is firm in the belief that his simple machine can melt the armor of the best war vessel at a distance of nine miles and render the great sea monster absolutely helpless. In a battle on hind, Mr. Sharp says, everything within a radius of niue miles of the machine could be literally burned up. The enemy would bo anni hilated swept from the face of the earth. The men would not only be killed, but their bodies would be consumed, tliur saving the azpeoseof burying them aud avoiding the danger of disease, which is always present wluro large numbers of men are killed. The process involves not only the production of immense heat, but its storage as well, by which the greatest buildings can be heated at tri fling cost. "The simple pi.iuciple upon which all this is based," continued Mr. Sharp, "is the focusing of the suu'a rays with glass, hut the method used is different Iron al' others in the past. Mr. Sharp slated that the matter h been laid before the Army and Navy lleparimenls, at Washington and had met wtth their afproTa!. Ha estimates the oost of completing the discovery and protecting it with patents at t.5,000 to $100,000, aud is prepared to expend this sum himself. NHW RILES FOR WALTZING, The Dancing Masters' Atsecitlion in ouuveution at Anbury Park, made five new rules which must prevail in waltiing. They are as follows: 1.

The lady curves her left arm and rest, the left h.ud above her partoer'a right eltiow. 4. The fingers of the gentleman's riiilil hand are clustered aud merely touch his purtoir it the waist line. 5 The waltxers now begin to revulee in time with tha tnusio, virtually holding each other at arm's length. It ia said that these rules will be en fututd by mora! suasion alone. k i WANTED THE YOUNG. THE LIMIT PASSED. UN E bUIIK.ME WHICH THE UIHL B STERN PARENT WOULD NOT SANCTION.

The f.iir members of the Hyacinth lull have pledged themselves lo many no inau unless he is her "ideal." What that "ideal" is they do not state to the public. These ideals are recorded in books that are sealed to vu'gar eyes of a curious public, and the young men are trying to be all things, so that they may bit the ideal of the fair one they are paying devotions to. it is realty sur prising how it has changed them. They dress better, don't smoke nor drink, nor use emphatic and expressive phrases; and tbey try to assume the expressive and bearing of a saint and son of Mars, at the same lime. Books on occult subjects have gone up in the town, and the boys can now talk with eiitial ulibucss of the "thusness of the why" and of the latest style in hat trimming. And the grayheaded wiseacres of the town shake their heads as they think of H 'he effort they wasted in trying to make the world better, when the little bliod boys, Eros, can do such a surprising amount of good so easily.
