A a \ Automatic Grab Bucket Can Plek Uy That Amount of Coal at Each O1 tion The thing that n bite up five tons of coal is known as an automatic grab bucket. It was invented not long ago. he Carnegie Steel company owns it and its function in the world of work Is to insert its great jaw into places juantities of ore are For Ins'ance, when 4 laden steamship It redeposit on dry wherefrom vast to be removed placed alongside can gobble «p and land about 2, tons an hour Every day see new labhor-sav Ing or time-saving invention in the way of machinery for handling mar terials in bul "his five-ton biter or grab bucket measures 15 feet over all some when its jaws are wide open A three- ton biter measures 11 feet. They are something like great pairs of claws and their mechanism is so perfect that no supplemental shoveling up is neces sary after they have finished unloading vaasel's hold Even befor: these largest grabbers were created some marvelous coal-bit- Ing exploits were recorded on the Lake Erie water front. One machine un aded 5,300 tons of ore in three hours sand 56 minutes. Another handled 4,300 waa in two and a half hours. Scarcity of Small Change Recalls Methods of Early Italians and Roman Customs. “There has been a scarcity of small thange of late,” said C. M. Binghamton, for 40 years with the United States treas- ary department, to a Louisville Herald man recently. “All sorts of reasons are assigned to explain this condition, but, whatever the cause, it is vexatious However, it is not as bad now in the way of exchanges as it was in the olden dmes, “The early Italians used cattle in- stead of coin. A person would sometimes send for change for a thousand-pound bullock, when he would receive a 25- pound sheep, or, perhaps, if he wanted very small change, there would be a few lambs sent back. The inconvenience of keeping a flock of sheep at one’s bank er’s led to the introduction df bullion. “People often wonder where certain monetary names came from. I'll tell you a few of them. “Formerly every gold watch weighed 80 many ‘carats,’ from which it became asual to call a silver watch a ‘turnip.’ “ “Troy weight is derived from the ex- fremely heavy responsibility which the Trojans were under to their creditors. “The Romans were in the habit of tossing up their coins in the presence of their legions, amd if a piece of money went higher than the top of the ensign’s flag it was pronounced to be ‘above the standard.’ ” 3E KIND TU THE PANTHER Has Become an Oft-Quoted Poem— Books on Nature Nearly All Entertaining. Not the least remarkable demonstra: tion of this return-to-nature enthu- siasm is the outbreak of “nature” books, says a writer in the Reader Magazine. Now with skill and now with ingenueus ignorance, writers descant upom trees, birds, gardens, roadways, farms, vistas, desert islands and deserted farms. These books are nearly all entertaining, well Illustrated and full of verve, and lose nothing whatever from the fact that almost without axception they are pre pared in a city apartment. The maga tines, too, have been lavish with na- ture articles, and have acquainted us with many charming secrets of bur row, nest and lair so that our sensi bilities have grown to be almost mor. bid in regard to the wild brothers of field and fen, and “Be kind to the panther” has become an oft-quoted poem. A lady In Chicago, who has profited not a little by the very informing arti- eles in the magazines, proposes writing one on her own account, and thinks of giving it the title: “How to Tell the Wild Flowers from the Birds.” WHALES A FACTOR IN WAR. Cetacean Mnnsters Resemble Torpeda Boats and Terrify Inhabitants of Russian Towns. Whales are giving a great deal of trouble at Vladivostok. One of them ex- ploded prematurely a torpedo, which oth- erwise might have destroyed a Japan- ese warship, and how a school of whales has taken on the semblance of a fleet of Japanese torpedo boats, and terrified the fohabitants of Askold island. Decidedly the port commander of Vladivostok should take every measure to hunt all whales from the coast waters. The pres- snce of a casual party of whales on the coast leaves the Japanese free to direct the northern mosquito fleet upon other fortified points. Conversely, by a prop- er concentration of whales upon the channel all the Rusisan mines might be exploded, with no harm except to the cetecean monsters. Yet before a quip is launched at the affrighted citizens of Vladivostok, it behooves Americans to recall the frequency with which phantom fleets were sighted off all our watering places In the early summer of 1898, says the New York Post. Had our shores at that critical time been beset with whales Wa possibly mizht have given no better Sovount of oursslves than the Askold falanders.
