Some of the Many Ways of
Breaking Your Neck
A RISKY ROAD TO WEALTH
the Loop asd Devices That
Followed—Accident* Resulting la
Oeath—Large Pay Received by
I'llftfus—The "Unman Arrow"
Rarns 4H0.000 a Tear.
Looptmr the loop and Ita progeny
are tha most effective devices yet In
vented for producing apparent as
well as real danger, aays the Scien
tific American. Does any one still
remember the American bicyclist
who used to ride at terrifying speed
down a steeply Inclined sixty-foot
ladder? One night an attack of ver
tigo caused his death, but his act
was less dangerous than the per
formance on Inverted and aerial
paths to which we have since be
come acuatomed
The public soon tires of the strong
est sensations. The stationary loop
gave place to the rotating circle
•ailed the devil's wheel, la which tha
cyclist spins like a squirrel. Taking
his place Inside the wheel, which la
about fifteen feet in diameter, he
I>edals in a direction opposite to that
of the wheel, and thus remains at
the bottom until the wheel has ac
quired considerable velocity. Then
he stops pedaling, applies his brake,
and Is tarried backward and upward
nenrlv to the top, whence he ruahaa
down, and files around and around
the revolving wheel with atartllng
speed.
At a performance In Vienna a cy
clist stricken with apoplexy fell from
tho wheel and soon expired. But tha
danger of cerebral congestion Is not
the only one. The critical phase of
the act Is the last, when both the bl
ccle and the large wheel are being
brought to rest by brakes. The bi
cycle lurches, and the slightest error
In steering may send It through tha
open side of the wheel and precipi
tate the rider to the stage.
In Germany a genius called
"Eclair" Invented an Infernal wheel
of nnother sort. It was about IS
feat In diameter, and a smaller wheel
rolled around Inside of It, obtaining
Its Impetus from a plunge down an
Inclined |)t*ae. which made a descent
of fifty feet. To this small wheel
"Eclair" was lashed In spreadeagle
fashion Ha accustomed himself to
this novel mode of locomotion by
having himself strapped to a similar
wheel, which was turned rapidly
about a fixed axis by means of a
crank.
More startling and perilous than
any of these devices Is the "circle of
death." This Is a large, flat, trun
cated cone, like the rim of a pud
ding dish, supported by ropes In a
position slightly Inclined to the hori
zontal, so that only one side of the
lower and smaller edge rosts on the
Bicyclists—one or morw—en'-'
ter the central apace and run up and
a round the steep side with their ma
chiiies and bodies nearly horizontal
Then to add to the apparent and real
danger, the whole apparatus Is
raised aloft. The effect Is thrilling,
for the riders appear to bo In con
stant danger of falling. In Berlin, as
three cyclists were gyrating In a sin
gle circle of death, one fell and car
ried a second down with him. They
had scarcely reached the stage when
the third performer fell also* -
What Is the Incentive which lm-*
pels tb*BH men and women to risk
their lives nightly before crowds of
spectator*? Is It ambition,
love of applause, or simply the hope
of making a fortune? Tho American
"looping the loop" was conceived In
an essentially practical spirit, and
"Dlavolo," who received S6OO a
a night, has become a rich man.
Mile. Dutrleu, "the human arrow,"
earns SBO,OOO a year. "Mephlsto" re
ceived 1140, Mile, de Tiers S2OO a
night In Paris and larger sums
abroad. Imitators, of course, re
ceive less than originators. The cur
rent pay for looping the loop la from
S2O to |4O a night,which Is not high,
especially If the perfumer owns the
apparatus, which costs at least 1500.
It seems, therefore, that the hope
of gain Is not the only Incentive, but
that the performer, like the public, la
attracted by the very danger of the
act— a curious Illustration of the
fascination exerted by emotions which
In themselves are disagreeable.
The World's Most Powerful Qun.
Describing the making of the most
wonderful gun in the world. Day
Allen Willey says, in the Technical
World Magazine:
"Technically this great 'peacema
ker' is railed a 16-lnch breech-load
ing rifle. It la. perhaps, unneces
sary to say that the 'l6 Inches' refers
to the diameter of the bore, or the
calibre. In fact, this If so large that
, a man of ordinary size can crawl In
side the muzzle without difficulty. A
abetter Idea of the gun can be gained
when it is stated that the forglnga
for the tube and Jacket weigh no less
than 184 tons. The tube Itself Is
feet In length, and, as the gun
Is of the built up type favored by ar
tillery officers of the present day. It
la reinforced at the base by the Jack
et. which was shrunk Into position.
The tube Is further strengthened by
four thicknesses ofmetal between the
center of the tube and the breech."

WILLIAMSTON,
INOKNIOI'B TRICKS OP THIKVML
Rot Always Hamsshl b Hrraring
fmnianlly From Arrest.
A very slight thing will often
cause the arrest of l thief. For In
stanca, the operations of a pickpock
et on tiia top of an omnibus In Tot
tenham Court road, London, war*
clearly seen by a policeman sitting
behind him. This wss the esse, al
though the man was "covered" by a
newspaper. The pollcamaa saw tha
theft reflected la tha shop window
passed by the vohlcls and as a re
sult the pickpocket obtained six
months Imprisonment.
A rery Ingenious trick employed
by poachers Is that of Imtlhi an end
of a candle barning In n saucer of
water In the bedroom. Thla usually
Is so arranged that the catfdle will
sputtec out at about 10 o'clock. Just
as If It had been extinguished and
the man retired for the night. This
ruse Is often employed by poachers
who discover that the keei»ers are
watching the house for signs of the
poacher leaving. In many cases the
gnmekee|>er doea not discover that
the candle rould go out without any
humun agency.
A very curious course *ai adopted
by a Rurnley man who had Illicitly
entered a dwelling house while the
Inmates were shopping. He wks seen
by a woman who lived acrdhg the
way. The man, aeelng that he was
noticed, leaned on the wall with sur
prising nonchalance, and looked up
Into tha sky. as though soctng If
there were any signs of the abate
ment of a heavy shower. The wo
man asked whnt he wanted, but tha
housebreaker, totally disregarded tha
question. He simply remarked: "It
Is raining hard." Howeyer. he was
arrested some little time after.
Houses have been broken Into In
broad MMlght In Shrewsbury dur
ing the absence of the householders.
A considerable amoant of Jewelry
and money was taken from one
house, from which* two men were
seen to leave by the front door. They
were clever enough to raise their hats
as though bowing to somebody nt
the window of the house.
Sometimes the police are not so
clever as they might be. Four men
determined to rob n Fulham tavern
a short time ago, and the police laid
• trap for them. At night n detec
tive Insiiector and constables occu
pied the house, but, absurd as It may
scum, they forgot to. turn out tha
lights. The burglars duly arrived at
I o'clock, but they found the place
ablaze with lights, and also noticed
one of the watchers peering out of
the front door. Therefore the wise
burglars withdrew and decided not
to proceed further In the adventure.
The men returned, however, a week
later, and this time they were cap
tured. __
The police wished to arrest two
men who Were lying in the hold of a
barge off llrentford. Accordingly the
officers asked the men to "Come up
and be arrested." but the thieves In
stead of complying, returned the cor
dlglTotrmff Tiivftallon to the police
to "Come down and Join them." Nat
urally, this wns not easy, for the
sergeant commanding the besiegers
had recourse to a very simple but In
genious stratagem. He noticed that
the men below had kindled a fire, so
he told one of the men to fetch him
a tile. The sergeant then placed the
tile carefully over the barge's funnel
and the Investing force simply stood
around carelessly In order to await
developments.' The suspects stayed
below until they were half suffocated
by smoke, when they had to stumble
up on deck and surrender to the
grinning besiegers.
There are two men who are well
known to the police who arc clever
expert lndder thieves. Thoy were
recently arrested and placed In cus
tody at Winchester. Their method Is
to select a house by day and make
arrangements and see that there Is a
ladder about. In the evening they
return to the hpusc when the Inhabi
tants are at dinner. Then they take
the ladder to the back part of the
premises and raise It to a flrat floor
window. Their practice Is always to
work from the top part of the house.
When they have made these arrange
ments the next thing they do Is to go
downstairs, wedgo the door where
the residents are having dinner, lock
themselves In the room upstairs and
ransack It.
There have been several examples
lately of criminals run to earth sim
ply by leaWng finger prints upon the
glass of windows. Dy means of fin
ger prints the police were able to
trace tho burglars who stole (5,000
worth of Jewelry from Conduit
Street, Regent Street. The arrest
In this case was effected In a very
clever manner. As daylight was ap
pearing a milkman was seen going
down the street where tbe criminals
lived. He was attired In the usual
glaxed hat, and carried the uaual
money pouch and milk bucket with
cans around the side. When he ar
rived at the door of the criminal's
house he shouted, "Milk, oh!" but
the minute the door was opened he
rushed in, and four other milkmen,
who were disguised detectives, fol
lowed blm. Together the detectives
mounted the stairway to the bed
room.
la each case the man was found in
bed and In one or two Instances he
was asleep, but was awakened.
It may be the case before long that
burglars will not merely have to
wear gloves, but they will have to
abandon wearing trousers A man
was tried at l.ongton some time ago
for breaking Into the Old Roebuck
Inn. The only evidence against him
was an Impression taken of the seat
of his corduroy trousers. This im
pression corresponded exactly with
an Impression left In the dust on a
window aill. —Pearson's Weakly.

POWER ofM P DERN LIGHTS
Antiquated Stone Towers Replaced by
Tubular Structures—Hundreds o«
Lives Lost Yearly In the
taking—Advantage of the Involv
ing Lighting Apparatus-
Of the amount expended nearly
$500,000 Is required to purchase the
•uppllca for lighthouses, 1600.000 for
repairs and $400,000 for the mainte
nance of lighthouse vessels. The Un
ited States has cow about fourteen
hundred lighthouses and fog signal
keepers, and as each man's pay is fix
ed by law at not less than SOOO per
year a little multiplication will show
us that a sum of about SSZ6.O»O is re
quired yearly for (his service alone.
Congress has been fairly liberal in tna
matter of appropriation. Another
heavy expense has been the installa
tion of modem lights 10 lake the place
of the antiquated lllumluatiiig appara
tus.
The lighthouse board has under Its
care more than nine, thousand "aids to
navigation,' 'of one kind or auotber,
including lights, beacons or signals
which are operated by steam Or hot
air. More than a third of the num
ber are designed to give warning at
night, it requires an army of four
thousand men and a fleet of fifty ves
sels to maintain this giant Illuminat
ing system, but the lights Hash about
along the shores in the dusk at even
ing with as much regularity as though
they were operated by clockwork.
The old fashioned towers of brick
and stone are being changed to the
steel tubular structures of great
strength, securely bolted to the rocks.
Many of the lighthouses situated in
dangerous localities have Anally been
reared on their hazardous sites alter
years of dogged drilling on tho part
of the sea builders with wind aud
wave and tide and Ice puck, 'lite re
port h of the workmen who have rear
ed these light towers upon submerged
foundations where the waves swept
them at intervals or on submerged
rocKs in midooean read like romances.
Hundreds of men lose their lives In
this mast hazardous undertaking; at
tlaies they have teen 'he work of years
swept away In a single night or have
been compelled to live on some ble.tk
rock, cut off from all communication
with the world, for months at a time.
It is by no nienns exceptional for
the government to pay more than
$125,000 for a lighthouse, and some of
the triumphs of ' iiginceriug skill have
cost not less than SIOO,OOO. The elc
trlcal apparatus often costs a fifth of
the sum. Side by side with the endea
vor to build beacons where it hns been
supposed impossible to find a resting
placo fpr them is thy Kmt7ttt(Trr"Bp"fiir
nish these towerx with light* of sultl
clent power to send the rays over
greater wasten of than t-ver be
fore. There are now in cxislenne on
the roast of the United Stales a num
ber of lighthouses of more than one
bundled thousand candle power, or the
equal of eight ordinary incandescent
lights, and a new form recently devel
oped more than thirty million candle
power. The Introduction ot a ('really
improved lens wlili h concentrates the
rays has been Important in bringing
tbe lighthouse to tln ir pre.scnt stale
of perfection. Another innovation is
the revolving of tbe lighting appara
tus. t)y this plan the mariner wher
•vcr he may be, will *ee flashes of
light separated by Inh rvals of dark
ness, but by this means a more power
ful light is obtained than would other
wise be the case.
Ihe important work of indicating
bis whereabouts to the mariner has
been undertaken by the lighthouse of
ficials. Hundreds of beacons which
Hash white, then red, indicate to the
perplexed mariner by means of the
order of succession or their duration
his exact whereabouts. With glasses
of only two huts an endless number
of combinations may be devised. liut
Uncle Sam's officials have a better
•cbeme than this, and it Is nothing
less than a plan to have each sign of
flam(• dot out Its message to the mar
iners by means of beams of light, just
as a telegraph Instrument clicks out
the words. Kvery seaman, even though
though he be color blind. Is able to
count up to ten, and with our great
seaboard lamps operated on this new
system all that he will have to do is
lo count the uumbcr-of flashes thrown
toward him, note the duration of the
total eclipse which follows and con

as though the fact were chalked on a

The First Autorpofella.
The automobile secuis to litve been
born in the form of an idea, in the
year 17f>9, when a Glasgow student
threw out the suggestion that the
steam engine—then a very crude low
pressure affair —might be applied to
the moving of wheeled vehicles'' This
student afterward achieved fame as
Dr. Koblnaon, professor of natural
philosophy In the University of Edin
burgh. Ten years later Nicholas Ja
seph Cugnot, a French engineer, built
the first automobile. The machine
was a three wheeled affair and Its
course was quickly run, for on Its sec
ond or third trip It turned a corner too
fast and toppled over with a crash.
The city officials of l'aris refused to
permit Cugnot to repair bis machine.
To keep It from harming any one they
locked it up In a church, and there it
