TERRIFIC HEAT
IS GENERATED
COMMERCIAL VALUE OF OXY
ACETYLENE AND BLAU GAS
PROCESSES BECOMING MORE
CLEARLY RECOGNIZED EACH
DAY.
Most people have heard of the ter
rific heat produced by the Oxy-acety
lene flames, in which the hardest met
al la melted like wax. Two complete
outfits of Oxy-acetylene and Blau gas
Wedling apparatus are part of the per
manent equipment of the North Dako
ta Agricultural college and will be
demonstrated at the Electrical and
Industrial show to be held in the col
lege armory Jan. 21 to 24.
It is only within the past few years
that our mechanics have realized the
commercial value of this process. It
is entirely different from forge weld
ing or electric welding. This process,
known as the autogenous process, is
best described as the process of unit
ing metals by heat alone, without the
application of pressure, or hammer
blows.
By means of acetylene gas and oxy
gen, stored in tanks under pressure,
and a properly constructed nozzle or
torch in which two gases are united
and fired, an intense temperature,
said to be about H,300 degrees Fahren
heit, is generated, and it. may be used
to weld or fuse together iron, steel,
aluminum, brass, copper, and other
metals. The Oxy-acetylene torch may
also be used for cutting metals, such
as steel plates, beams, and large forg
ings, and Cor repairing flaws or de
fects, or filling cavities b.v melting a
strip of metal and (lowing it into place.
Blau gas, which was introduced
into this country less than four years
a«o, is rapidly gaining ground. It is
used extensively in isolated plants
both for illuminating and welding
purposes. The process is similar to
that of the Oxy-acetylene and one
who is an experienced operator can
weld and cut material at» with the
Oxy-acetylene process. There is no
reason why the Blau gas has not an
advantage over the other process for
this kind of work, on account of the
fact that it has a greater heat value.
The first cost of ttie new outfit fa
•probably a little higher than that of
the forging process, but taking into
consideration the difference in work
performed with each, there is no com
parison in economy. The cost of op
erating varies from 1 cent to $3.50 per
hour for gas consumed, depending
upon the nature of the work.
THE
1
THEATRES
At the Grand.
A s:ood offering at the Grand
jtlieatre this week is a simple little
New England play entitled Dora. It
it a comedy drama in four acts and
depicts people whom most of us knew
when we were young. The story is of
half brothers, Dave Foster "and Wil
lis Hew let. sons of Widow Hewlet,
who was blind. Willis Hewlet steals
$1,000 from her and lays the blame
on his half brother. All wrongs ara
righted when the gypsy girl whom
the thief, Willis, has wronged claims
him as her husband.
The part of Dave is ably taken by
Ward Cassidv and that of the brother
toy L». T. Gould. Miss Karbach plays
especially well tho part of the blind
mother and Irene Jeavons the role
of the pvpsy girl. The role of the
country girl with whom both broth
ers are in love is portrayed by Mistf
Eaton,
The scenry adds much to the play
the first half of the week, showing
a real snow storm on Thanksgiving
day. The second scene of Cedar hill
and the toboggan slide affords much
merriment..
The Orpheum.
The Rackin Troupe of Russians is
jthe headline attraction at the Or
i pheum theatre the first half of the
week, showing many new steps in
whirlwind dancing. As musicians and
singers also the company is a good
one.
Another good number of the bill
Is Hager & Goodwin who give A
.Study in Songology, which brought a
itoig applause from the audience at
last evening's performances.
Billie Burton, who is known on the
I vaudeville stage as "The Musical
iMaid", is an excellent violinist. Her
.Irish songs and dances were especial
ly well received. Miss Dare's song this
I week, When the Maple's Leaves Are
Falling, is a pleasing number of the
ERRORS IN MODELING.
Soma Statues Noted for Glaring Mis
takes in Construction.
Spare Moments: Some, of the
statues in public places are notable
for certain unique symbols or glaring
errors in modeling. Cji of the former
kind is the statu© of Sir Anthony Ash
ley at Wimborne, Dorset. Carved out
of stone at the feet of the figure is a
faithful representation of a cabbage,
indicating that Sir Anthony introduc
ed the vegetable from Holland into
England.
Even more peculiar is the carving on
one of the four panels on the Queen
•Victoria statue in George square, Glas
gow. The subject is the knighting of
James Anderson, then lord provost of
.that city. As no sword was available,
tho ceremony was performed with an
umbrella, and the substitute has been
copicd by the sculptor. This same
etatue is incorrect in one important
detail. The stately pose of the horse
is negatived by the position of the hind
lesrs—a position which is only possible
.when a horse is racing at full speed-

EVOLUTION.
The first development of Darwin's
epochal and revolutionary theory of
the origin of species through natural
selection, resulted from his memorable
voyage on the brig Beagle, which sail
ed away from England eighty-two
years ago today. Captain Fitzroy, of
the Beagle, asked that a naturalist
be supplied to accompany the expedi
tion of exploration of South America,
and a young man who had just gradu
ated at Cambridge, Charles Darwin
by name, volunteered for the place
For five years the Beagle cruised
about South America nwaters, and the
youthful naturalist, by the accumula
tion of a vast mass of scientific data
and a close observance of the mani
festations of nature, laid the founda
tion for his work, which was to over
turn many of the accepted notions
of science and religion. On that trip
Darwin discovered a new world of
thought, and, like another Columbus,
returned to Europe to startle and con
found the world. Modern evolution
was born when the eBagle sailed on
Dec. 27. 1831.
