Charles H. Morgan, of Gunnison, Col. It is constructed with a series of longitudinal tubes, adapted to hold concentrated gas, and bent to assume a generally spherical shape. These tubes are secured at their extremities to reduced end ribs, and to transverse circular or oval ribs, between which and the longitudinal ribs is an inner inclosing silk or metallic waU. An outer smooth metallic wall is also provided, having a sharp forward point, in which is a sight opening, a steering apparatus being mounted near by.

The strength and character of the walls allow for great expansion of the gas, and automatically working valves are arranged to accommodate the varying internal and external pressures in upper and lower strata of air. Effect of the Atmosphere OB Bricks. Atmospheric influence upon bricks, tiles, and other building materials obtained by the burning of plastic clays depends very much on the chemical composition of the clays and on the degree of burning. Thus any distinct portions of limestone present in them would be converted into quicklime in the kiln, and when the bricks were thoroughly wetted would expand in such a manner as to disintegrate the mass.

If the clay used is too poor that is to say, if it contains an excess of sand the bricks will not become sufficiently fused, and upon exposure to weather their constituent parts will separate. It is to be observed that in bricks, as in stones, decomposition does not take place with the greatest rapidity where constant moisture exists, but rather where, from the absence of capillarity, variable according to the moisture furuished by the atmosphere, either directly or indirectly, a series of alternations of dryness and humidity prevail. The foundation walls of buildings do not in fact suffer so much in the parts immediately upon the ground as they do in those at a height of from one to three feet, according to the permeability of the materials employed. When bricks made of clay containing free silica are laid in mortar, and moisture can pass freely from either one or the other, it may be observed that the edges in contact become harder than the body of the bricks. No doubt this arises from the formation of a silicate of lime and the lime being furnished by the passage of the water through the bed of mortar.

The Mission township people are discussing the propriety of voting bonds to the rapid transit to aid the road to build up to Simganunga, to a point ten miles southwest of Topeka and the Auburn folks are expected to "boost" the matter along by encouraging the road to build to that village.

Dover is also agitating the question of voting bonds to the rapid transit. We believe this is Dover's "onliest" hope for a railroad. Dover! you may count us in favor of the bonds.
