Ex-Governor James E. Campb-11 , the de
feated democratic candidate for governor of
Ohio , has turned from politics to wheels nnd
proposes Improving his financial condition by
catering to the wants of the wheeling multi
tude. Colonel Campbell nnd another Ohio
colonel are about to launch n patent tire
which , It Is claimed , possesses the resident
qiiallllc ! ) ot the pneumatic without the lattcr's
liability to punctures. It Is said lo be a won
der wrought out of gum , nud will stand a
Jtnlfo or pistol ball being driven Into It with
out Interfering wllh Its usefulness In the
least. The Idea In to adapt It for bicycles ,
buggies , and , In fact , all kinds ot light road
velilclea It Is understood that a company
will ho organized Immediately to push the
manufacture ot tlio new tire , In which It I :
believed there Is a fortune for lliose who are
to take n hand. A puncturelcfs tire , pos
sessing the yielding qualities of the present
pneumatic would fill a mighty want and yield
a fortune for the promoters ,
PRICES AND OUTPUT.
It Is Interesting to note that men well In
formed In tu ! affulrs ot the cycling world
are placing the output of wheels next year
at high figures. II. K. Muslin of Syracuse
puts It nt DOO.OOO , and A. O. Spaldlng thinks
It will be 1,000,000. Should this estimate
csmo true , there must necessarily bo a decided
boom In cycling as a pantlrnc. And , IcsUlcs ,
what a factor the sale of so many wheels
will bo In the commercial world ! Sold at un
overage price ot $00 per wheel , which Is a
low estimate , It means that $51,000,000 will
change- hands , nnd that the' makers and mid
dle men will pocket a profit of close to $25-
000,000 above the bare- cost ot manufacturing.
These figures tell * a tale of a marvelous
growth In the cycle business.
A largo manufacturer of tubing for bicycles
said to a Now York Tribune reporter the
other day that the output of wheels next year
would bo enormous. Ills factory , ho said ,
had already made engagements that would
keep It busy to Us full capacity until May.
1800 , and It was by no means able to fill alt
orders that would be given It If It were able
to turn out mare tubing. The tubing of next
year's bicycles IH to bf larger , as a rule , than
that used heretofore ; an Inch and an eighth
will be the diameter generally used. The
manufacturer also said that there would be
some Increase In the weight ot wheels the
coming .year , and ho thought that twenty-
four or twenty-five pounds would bo the most
called for weights , ns the craze for lightness
had been ccrrled lo an extreme" . When
asked If hoknew anything about the re
ported intention of a large concern to put a
blcyclo In large quantities on the market at
? 35 he said : "No , I don't know anything
about It , and I don't believe It Is going to be
done. It Is true that a bicycle could bo sold
for that money , but I wouldn't advise any one
to buy It. Certainly I wouldn't trust myself
or any member of my family on on ? , 'lui
actual cost of a high grade wheel IB about
527 , and there cannot bo much reduction In
the cost to the purchaser' below * > 100 whllo
the present methods of selling prevail. Ad
vertising Is a la'rgo Item. The price to the
trade of wheels of this class Is about $70 or
$75. Those who are expecting another cu
in prices next year because there was a cu
.ot $25 two years.ago nnd another reduction
of the same amount last year are therefore
likely to find that they are mistaken. "
THE BICYCLE SKATE.
With the advent of winter comes a herald
ing of bicycles that can be- used when the
ground Is covered with snow and the or
dinary wheel has to be laid aside , The
winter blcyclo Is Intended for use on the
Ice , and some cnthue'.nstB claim that for 7.os
and excitement It far eclipses the road bi
cycle. It Is said that with It a quarter of it
tnllo has been made In twunty seconds , and
that It compares In point of speed will
other forms of blcyclea as the Ice yacht does
to the sea-going craft. It Is a simple mat
ter to co'nvert the ordinary bicycle Into an
ice bicycle. A patent attachment has been
invented , consisting of a runner to replace
the front whi and a patent spiked tire
which enclrcleb ' * < ! rear wheel. These at
tachmenls are ma' to fit any style or make
of modern safety bicycle. The rear whec
attachment fits tightly around the pneu
matlc tire , forming a guard against punc
turcs which might occur without the pro
tectlon from the Jagged edges of Ice or
frozen snow. The machine la propelled by
spikes with flanged heads on the Inner side
securely fastened to a strip of canvas
around which Is placed a metallic bane
which holds the spikes in place. Before ad
Justing the rear wheel attachment all the
air must bo taken from the tube , and th
relnflatlon Is accomplished as soon as th
attachment Is In position. To adjust th
runner or skate the front wheel has to bo
removed. The runner Is very sharp am
hollow ground , so that accidents are not Ha
bio to occur In turning or when riding a
full speed. A runner Is also made for ex
elusive use on the snow. This Is secured to
the Ice runner by a key on the front uppe
portion of the blade of the latter. A strap
Is fastened between the front of the rnnnc
and the fork of the frame , which holds tin
runner securely when It accidentally strike
a rock or any obstacle likely to Jar 111
bicycle , The whole front attachment weigh
only two and one-halt pounds , iud so make
the bicycle no heavier than would the fron
wheel. It Is said that anybody who can rid
a wheel will have no difficulty In using thos
attachments.
A MISSIONARY BICYCLE.
The following Is an extract from a Icttc
recently received by Rev. II. A. Schauffe
of Cleveland from his daughter , a missionary
In Persia :
"Mr. Allen , the superintendent of th
industrial department , has gone to Amcrlci
to learn something moro of the Iron trade ,
an iron department Is to ba added to th
ohop. Ho started on his bicycle and ex
pectetl to ride to Datoum , on the Black sea
Btop at Samwon , and run up to Marsovan o
his wheel to see the training school ther
and take the stnmcr to Marseilles and rui
across France , making t ehjourney as chca ;
OH possible.
"In August ho look a tour to the souther ,
part of our field on his wheel. Ho woul <
leave the horocmcn who accompanied him
way behind him , and rode most of the wa
alone. Everywhere ho was an object of th
greatest wonder and excitement. Some sal

sometimes he got Into trouble , and at on

"One- day ho was riding along alone whe

strange apparition. Then the man drew ou
a cartridge and slipped It Into hla gun , a

HER FIRST BLOOMERS.
A well known Washington woman who ha
become a great bicycle enthusiast Intends t
take an extensive wheeling trip with her 1ms
band. Because- the Inconvenience- skirl
she decided to adopt bloonicrs , and left he
order and measure with the women's depar

a can ! to "call at her earliest convenience t

She was therefore ushered into the pnia

On Tuesday evening last th ? committee ap
pointed by the Associated Cycling clubs to
Iccldo upon the date and place for holding
bo first annual cycle Dhow and banquet met
n the Young Men's Christian association
parlors and nftcr some Iltllc discussion de
cided upon February 11.12 and IS as the
dates for the- show and February 14 for the
banquet , both to bo held In the Omaha
Guards armory. It would have been hard to
mvo chosen better dates , as the ones se
eded como Just long enough after the big
Ihlcago show to glvo local agents a chance
to get their ' 90 models here after choosing
the wheels they wish to handle during the
coming season. The cycling editor called
ipon nearly every agent -prominence In
the city the past week and found that n com
paratively small number of them knew Just
what wheels they Intended to handle during
1896 , and ho was also Informed by 'most ot
hem that they would cheese their entire
line at the big Chicago show In January and
therefore February 11 would give them ample
tlmo to get wheels here to show. There are
today In the city over twenty different concerns
corns handling bicycles and It Is very prob
able that by the middle ot February there
will bo nearly twice that number , which
means that Omaha's cycle show will bo well
worth attending. Then the wheelmen's ban
quet , which will bo held the evening follow
ing the last night of the show , will be the
ntst of Its kind ever given In Omaha. There
will bo none but active wheelmen present
and the bai.nuct will bo on the plan of the
ono held by the Manufacturers and Consum
ers association which was held hero early
this spring , and covers will be laid for at
least 300 wheelmen. A bolter place for hold
ing -the show than the armory could not have
been had In the city. II Is well adapted for
a thing of this kind , being on the ground
floor , centrally located and having abundance
of floor space. Taken altogether' Omaha s
J8'J6 cycle show will bo looked forward to by
these Interested In cycling with great Inter
est and expectation , which wo nope will be
fully realized.
Since the smoke of battle has cleared away
wo nnd the following officers of the Nebraska
division , League of American Wheelmen
elected for the coming season : A. R. Ed
mlsion , . . ' -icoln , Neb. , chief consul ; R. M
Simmon * , m-atrlce. Neb. , vice consul ; W. M
McCall , Grand Island , secretary and treas
urer and E. B. Henderson , Omaha , repre
sentative. It will be noticed that Omaha has
but ono offlce this year , while last year It
had two. Heretofore wo have been able to
control the election , aa Omaha's member
ship was as much it not more than all the
rest of the division put together , but wo
have not grown faat enough in league mem
bership during the past season to keep up
with the balanc-3 of the division. The newly
elected officers are all more or less promlncn
in Nebraska cycling circles , and a better lo
could not have been chosen. It Is hoped
that Immediately upon taking up their offi
clal duties they will begin a membership
crusade. Nebraska , Instead of having a mem
bershlp of less than 300 , as she has , sliouli
top the 1,000 mark , and by a lot of hustling

H E Frcderlckson has resigned his posi

next season.
The cycling editor spent several days In
Geneva , Neb. , last week. This town he
found to have a cycling club with a mem
bership of nearly forty , all of whom are
hustlers. Last season they gave a race
meet which netted them quite a little Bum
and they are talking of using this to build a
one-third mile-track the coming sason. I
there Is a Btato circuit they say they wan
a date on It ; they also have a couple o
speedy racing men whom they hope wll
make a showing on the path during the
comlnc season.
W ' R Wright of St. Louis was In the city
last'week. He attended the- Tourist theater
party Monday evening , with the boys.
Next year will oee the number of lady
cyclists In our city almost doubled. Many
held off this year , waiting for society to pu
Its stamp on cycling , and now that this has
been done. Just watch the fair ones take to
the wheel.
Last month the McGrow guards of St
Louis gave.a road race , open only to mem
bers ot Us own company. There were thlrtj
starters and the event was a very Interest
Ing ono. Why would It not be a good Idea
for the military organizations of this city
to get up a road race In the spring ? Thert
are at least fl'ly ' wheelmen In the Omaha
Guards and Thurston Rifles , whllo there arc
also a number In the regular army at For
Omaha. A race over the Dodge street coursi
open only to members of military organlza
tlons , each man to carry gun , knapsack
cartridges , etc. , would make a very Interest
Ing event and would no doubt call out as
many people to witness It as did the bit ,
Decoration day road race here last aprlng
Make It u handicap affair , and therefore
give everybody a show.
Racing men on the circuit say that Otto
Zelgler IB the hardest man to "follow" 01
ths track. The person who tags on to the
wheel of the California ! ! has got a crooked
roni to travel. The llttla fellow 1s first In
anil then out , advancing and retreating , and
he Is so small he can easily crawl througt
places that would b3 Impossible for others
to follow. Those who have tried It say It 1

mile than It Is to ride an unpaced ten mil
race.

whose number appears after It. It Is a

When riding alons I find considerable
pleasure In exploring by and cross-roads , and
where the roads are frequent and rather
hilly withal , there Is some spice of ad
venture about It.
During oni of my solitary exploration
quite recently , as I was coming out upon
the main road from an ancient and obsolet
( ? ) specimen of road making where I hid
b ? n obliged to wslk most ot tha way , th
following Idea came to mind.

Local wheelmen who attended the state
meet at Kearney this year will remember
'rank Rlgby of Toledo , who won nil thi
Insa n events hands down. He has made a
most brilliant record since his advenU on the
national circuit. In his style , he possesses
an electrical spring , and also has the ability
o pick up Cooper when that Intrepid rider
rushes past the field In his great three-
elghttis-of-a-mlle sprint. Illghy has always
been what Is termed a "pot-hunter. " He
has been n star among Ilia class , going out
o the smaller meets In Ohio , Indiana , Michi
gan nnd Illinois , nnd with his partner , Bern-
hardt. taking all Ihe prizes. In 1S94 UIOM
two captured a total of 200 prizes , and were
seldom seen among ths regular circuit party.
The riding of Rlgby on tha Canadian circuit
gave him an Inspiration , and ho nt once de
cided to go cast to the great Springfield
ncet. The firm for which he was working
vnuld not defray tha expenses , and he went
entirely upon his own' responsibility and nt
ils own expense. In the heats at Spring
field he made a great reputation for him
self. In the percenlngo table , Hlgby ranks
cuvcnth , ' and his position has been gained
only by good riding.
The Columbia racing team , which now
consists of E. C. Bald and Manager Asa
Wlndle , W. F. Sims having severed his con
nection with the team , and Ray Macdonald
remaining in Ihe east , Is now at Lost Angeles ,
Cal. , following the national circuit , which
comet to a conclusion early next month In
southern California. The heavy work of the
team during the entire raason has been nl-
most exclusively borne by Bald , and his
astonishing successes against tremendous cdds
stamp him the equal if not the superior of
Zimmerman , for he has had faster men to
defeat than the latter had to contend with
while In the amateur class. It has been a
case of Bald against the field ever since the
beginning of the season , and the "Cannon
Ball" has been more than successful by a
'larg and steadily increasing majority. "
On Monday last In New York 'there ' was a
conference between the Transportation com
mittees of the League of American Wheel
men and the National Cycle Board of Trade , nt
which the subject ot the carriage of bicycles ,
by railroads ns bapgage was discussed and a
committee appointed to consult with the
Passenger Trunk Line association.
The theater party given by the Tourist
Wheelmen at Boyd's last Monday night was
the largest ever given In the cjty before ,
there being nearly ' 150. couples present
Robert Downing received them at the door
as they came In. The house was tastefully
decorated with club colors , which1 are red
white and blue , as was also theevening's
program. Taken all together It was ono of
the most enjoyable affairs of the season.
According to Interviews with several prom
inent members of the National Board o. . "
Cycle Manufacturers , the production of bl
cycles during the coming year will reach the
unprecedented total of 1.203.000 , representing
a valuation of $60,000,000. These figures are
based upon reports from manufacturers In al
parts of the- country , who ara either Increasing
ing their facilities for the manufacture o
wheels or are preparing lo enter the ranks o
wheel manufacturers. The prevailing opinion
however , e > eems to be that 1896 will mark the
flood-tide of the Industry , as In the nature o
things there must be a limit even to the
demand for bicycles. In the matter of con
struction there promises lo be few radlca
changes. The tubing used will probably beef
of slightly greater diameter , tires will be
heavier , and weight will range , as at present
from eighteen to twenty-two pounds. Woodej
rims will still bo used , hickory being the
favored material.
The celebrated Tltus-Cabanne-Murphy case
-which has so long bcn In tfio hands of the
League of American Wheelmen racing board
Is at last drawing to a close. The case was
reopened for additional evidence , and the ac
cumulated papers , which now weigh over flvi
pounds , are again going the rounds of the
board by express for the final vote. It will bi
remembered that the trio of Big B's wen
charged with fixing a race at St. Louis , bu
It now appears from the evidence that Murphy
himself , who wen the race , was not In the
deal. It seems that Titus and Murphy' :
trainer , out of pure goodness of heart , con
spired with Cabanne to let him win the mill
open , simply because the Ineet. was being
held In his native town. Titus and Murphy'
trainer each left Iho other to post Murphy
but both failed to do so. Hence when Tltu
rode wldo to let Cabanne through , Murphy
being In a favorable position , slipped tSirougi
himself and won the race , Under the clr
cumstances It Is predicted that all three wll
be exonerated. _

relates the Baltimore American.
Ton of the porklets had given up their live
to carry out a campaign promise , and they
seemed contented enough tucked away In
their brown jackets , though they were no
heard to remark as to the Indignities heape
upon them. When Mr. Christian KosenUroc'
made his little campaign pleasantry to Mayoi
elect Hooper he probably did not think tha
from it would grow ono ot the chief post
election Jollifications , but mich It proved las
night at Mechanics' Exchangehall. . For
avenue and Charles street.
It was such a feast as ono reads of in
the days of Robin Hood. There was little I
sight except pig , beer , and high , good spirits
but the supplies of these were bounteous
A huge American flog at ono end of th
hall was about the only decoration. Th
Idea of the feast was unique , and efforts hai
been made to carry It out along those lines
The table was made up of boards on trestle
and there was no tablecloth. But nla theri
was In moro than plenty , and then speeches
and after all a musical and literary enter
talnment.
The tine spirits of the fifty men presen
tnad the feast more enjoyable than man
a more elaborate affair , and the quantities o
pig consumed did not bar out telling speeches
In about all the speeches some referenc
was made to the fire which consumed u
much of Mr. Hosenbrock's worldly good
Thursday night , but from which the pig
escaped , as they were cooped up In his yart
H was long after midnight ono night , dur
ing the very heat of the campaign , tha
Mayor-elect Hooper with other candidate
dropped Into the home of Christian Rosen
brock , Charles and Randall streets , wher
they found a feast ot roast pig awaiting
them. Their appetites were keen , and they
enjoyed the feast hugely. In a spirit o
raillery , Mr. Roscnbrock told Mr. Hoope
that If ho were elected he would supply a
roast pig for each ot the principal candidates

The running of a stiert car from Ihe tlmo

whether the cars are running regularly or
rregulnrly : whether there Is a stoppage at
ny point ; how' Ions the stoppage lasts ; how
nany cars arc blocked ; and when the
rouble Is removed and the road begins oper-
lion again. This chronograph conslltutcs a

auso ho can check It. ami , It necessary ,
race the exact car which Is being responsl-
jle for Ihe deviation from the schedule time.
The manner In which all this Information is
obtained In really extremely simple. The
chronograph consist ! ) primarily of a sheet
3t paper moving at a uniform rate under a
series of pens or points , opsralc-d by magnets.
Each magnel point represents a point on the
road , and each lime a car passes Ihls point
on the road It makes contact , and the mag-
lot point on chronograph makes a prick
mark on the paper. On the frame ot Iho In
strument Is mounted a back roller to hold
& supply of paper , the front roller on which
o roll up tha record , the top plate holding
he magnet points nnd the top roller , which
gives the lime movement to Ihe sheet. This
op roller 10 a series of grooved wheels , one
or each magnet point. The Importance of
his part of the device Is obvious , since the
novemcnt ot the sheet must be absolute and
. > xact. or there will be Inaccuracy In. the lime
record. This roller Is nctualed at Ihe rate of
one revolution an hour by a powerful clock
uovement. This gives the paper four Inches
of movement in the hour , or one Inch for
every fifteen minutes. A line running on a
one-mlnuto schedule will therefore show flf-
; een cars or prick marks to Ihe Inch ; a five-
intnule schedule three to the Inch , nnd BO on.
V break of two Inches would denote a stop

ELECTRIC TRANSATLANTIC SHIPS.
Ten years ago a well known professor of
electrical engineering ina , leading American
college , who had tested [ almost every form
ot the storage battery , thep made , was asked
whether he saw any &itufe for the accumu
lator. HIa reply was : "T/io / more I see of
storage batteries the more , I am convinced
: hat they are Imprnct able and that they can
never bo made commercially .valuabl ? . " Today
the storage battery lsaworklng Its way Into
almost every branch Of 'electrical work , and
If certain promises vrlifch' recent Improve
ment in construction .seem to give are ful
filled. It Is on the eve cf-lts crowning tri
umph recognition asva practicable motive
power for1 the commerciallpjbptvlslon ot street
cars. Many electrical e'riglheers have Just as
little faith in the possibility of driving ships
across the "Atlantic bjf'tcctrlclty ! as the col
lege professor had asul [ ( | , tjie fulure ot the
storage battery ; but , pn , tlie other hand , In
ventions are , now being perfected which will
effect ah extraordinary' Jfn'd' almost Incred
ible revolution in snip propulsion , and
those- who know whatis , being done
In Ihls field , which Is ] llqt "yet made pub
lic , realize that to name ten years ns
the period within whlclj- electric ships will
cross the Atlantic is to'lllow a very liberal
margin. This will probably bo effected by
machines giving an enjtmous economy of
power , but there Is already talk of carrying
out the Idea with existing appliances. A.
S. HIckley , a pioneer lp American electric
launch construction , holds that the reason
vessels crossing the Atlantic make such
comparatively slow time Is that they can
not drive their propellers fast enough with
the amount of power behind them without
shaking the ship to pieces. He proposes to
put In an ocean ship a powerful engine , say
a compound condensing engine of slow speed
type , connected directly to a multipolar gen
erator , giving , say , 600 A-olts potential. Di
rectly on the shafts of the , propellers he
would put the armatures pf the motors which
are to drive the propellers. These can easily
bo made to run from COO to 900 revolutions
per minute , whereas Iho engine Is probably
making only slxly or elghly. In this way
not only would there be a considerable ac
celeration of speed , but the vibration of the
ship would be almost entirely prevented , and
the dipping in and out bf the water of the
propellers In rough weather would not affect
the main engine and Jar the vessel from slcm
lo slern as it doeo now. j
AS A CURATIVE AGENT.
Electrotheraplsts are contending success
fully with Ih-e difficulty ot passing the electric
current through the surface of the skin Into
the tissue underneath. An American physi
cian has perfected a syslem of spinal treat
ment which has given extraordinary results.
The difficulty of diagnosing many of the
subtle forms of eplnal disease Is well known.
By the new system , In which electrical tests
are made , the presence' ot the disease is
flrst discovered , then tbo exact location of
It Is ascertained with certainty , The third
step Is to drive sultable'modlcaments through
the skin to the seat of the trouble , and so
effect a cure. This Is done by placing an
electrode , the pad of which Is charged with
the medicine , on the skin , and turning on
the current. As the current passes Inward ,
It carries the particles ot the medicine with
It , Doctors are now turning their attention
to the application of weak galvanic currents
In the treatment of nervous disorders of
the stomach. This Is done by the entirely
unique method of making Ihe patient swallow
'the electrode , by which the current Is applied.
This electrode consists of a rubber tube , one
mllllmeler thick , which terminates In a
perforated vulcanite capsule- , and contains
the conducting wire. After the patient has
drunk two glasses of lukewarm water , the
electrode 1s connected with negative polo
of a galvanic battery , and then swallowed.
The conducting wire does not quite reach
the perforated capsule , 'but goes just far
enough to dip Into the water In the stomach
A current of fifteen to twenty-six mllllam
peres Is used for about fiveminutes. . The
treatment Is said to bo highly soothing and
beneficial in nervous disorders of the stomach
and bowels , giving tome mid curatlvo effects
not attainable by any other means.
PHOTOGRAPHY DV ELECTRIC LIGHT.
One ot the drawbacks which has militated
against the success of'thearc light In pho
tography Is the difficulty of neutralizing the
harshness of contrast III the lights and shad
ows. With the useot the Incandescent lamp
this difficulty has been overcome , and the ma
nipulation of units of light has been so much
Improved as to virtually Inaugurate- new
system of photography A demonstration of
a new apparatus for thla purpose has been
given In Edinburgh. The Invention consists
of a series of twenty Incandescent lamps of
100 candle power each , strung around the In
ner edge o an umbrella-shaped frame , which
Is covered with white. Bilk. This frame Is
fastened by a universal Joint to a beam like
that of a steelyard , which runs on rails sus
pended from the roof , and lias also a uni
versal Joint , so that with a touch of the
hand the light can be run from one end of
the studio to the other and adjusted at any
angle. The light is under perfect control ,
and the switching devices are sa arranged
that any candle power , up to 2,000 , can In
stantly b turned on. In the negatives , which
were taken by way of Illustrating the method ,
the shadows were In some cases further
toned down by adjusting silk screens be
tween the light and the sitter. The finished
picture * were n soft and delicate as any day
light photograph ! .
AN ELECTRIC INCUBATOR.
The idea , of an electric Incubator has long
been looked upon l > y poultry farmers ns too
theoretical to be of any real s arvcHetr !
tiJ
Otto J ScSiuUe , who li .t b n tttAdlly striving
to perfect such n tystem In Germany , hat. It
Is said , at length succeeded In construct np
an apparatus operate 1 electrically , which
overcomes the ordinary difficulties of the aril
ficlal hatching of chickens. The apparatus
Is easily manipulated , And needs a small , but
constant , supply of current. Automatic at
tachments rcgtiUto both tempcratura and
moisture , the adjustment wotklng with such
delicacy that a temperature- within one-tenth
of a degree of the normal heal of Incubation.
From ninety to 100 eggs are hatched at one
time. Herr Schulze Is said to have remcJIcd
certain points In tlio electric "mother , " which
were found to Interfere with Its effectiveness.
This contrivance , which Is n box , In which
froshly-hatc'hcd chicks cm find heat and pro
tection , whlla they are frco to run about on
the ground when they choose , has been de
vised as an accompaniment to the Incubator.
TADPOLES UNDER TREATMENT.
Dr. A. D. Waller has thrown an In'erest-
Ing light on the effect of the electric cur
rent on animal life by his series of curious
experiments on tadpoles. A cell , fitted \\ltli
suitable electrodes , and filled with water
In which one or more tadpoles are placed ,
was traversed by an electric current. AMion
th ? current passed from the tall to the head
the tadpole made no sign , remaining per
fectly quiet. As soon , however , as the cur
rent was turned In the opposite direction ,
the tadpole would waggle his tall vigorously.
A largo trough In which a number ot tad
poles were- swimming about In all directions
was also connected up to the battery. \ \ hen
the switch was turned there wa * great com
motion among the occupants for a few mo
ments , but finally the whole of them came
to rest with heads and tails lying In line
with the direction of the current.
WOOD AND IRON POLES.
The relative economy of iron and wooden
poles has been of late years a much dis
cussed question , the solution of which is
often dependent upon location. Most men
would doubt the advisability of carrying
poles from Maine to Colorado , nud yet sucto
a consignment has been shown to be most
wisely dlrtctod. In the recent western trip
of the Western Union Telegraph officials ,
Colonel dowry , Fpcaklng In Denver of his
early experiences of the Denver Pacific line ,
said : " 1 was noticing the old poles as we
came In this morning. They arc the first
cedat poles every used , and I was laughed at
when I brought them clear out from Maine.
But they have been there now twenty-three
years , nnd nro as good as ever , while the
nverago lite of a pine polo Is only four
years. "
NOVEL EXPERIMENTS.
A , Michigan agricultural college Is about
to make an experiment which may have an
Important bearing. It has been proved that
when a sufficient current of electricity IB
communicated to grass aniV herbage It in
stantly withers and kills the plant. Rail
road companies have already utilized the
idea by arranging a hanging device , which
projects from the car and destroys the grass
and weeds on the banks with which It
makes . contact. Prof. Wcodworth. who has
brought this now labor-saving method to tlie
notice of the Natural History society , cays.
IB does not see why this mode of exterminat
ing weeds cannot be used to advantage on
our country roads. He believes that electric
ity Is quite as cheap as salt for killing weeds
In the long run , as It Is much more effective
and destroys the plant to the root. Ho pro-
posjs to experiment on the most noxious
weeds by taking a wheelbarrow or wagon
supplied with a storage battery to the land
to bo cleared , and let the hanging wires drag
along the ground. He insists on the prac
ticability of removing Canada and Russian
thistles from farms In this way.
'ELECTRICITY AS A SENTRY.
The running of Hie field telegraph line In
the Chltral campaign was attended by many
trying difficulties. Rain and wind storms In
the hill valleys would often mow down the
line At first a good deal of trouble was ex
perienced from camels and other transport
animals rubbing against the poles and breakIng -
Ing them. Interruptions from this source
were soon diminished by the dealing out of
a little summary Justice- among the owners
of the offending animals. Wire cutting Is
always a favorite amusem&nt with frontier
tribes. They find the wire very useful. Some
times they convert the hollow Iron posts Into
ctms by lapping the wire around them. They
also cut up wire for bullets. The tribesmen
who are hired to work on the road have little
hesitation In giving proof of their hatred of
the invader. As soon as their shift Is fin
ished they will hunt up t'nelr Jezall or Jong
gun from some hiding place nnd fire Into the
camp at night. Once in Afghanistan an engi
neer officer , who "employed several of the
frontiersmen In road making , chaffed one of
them on the bad shooting they made. The
man replied : "What can you expect , sahib
when we have only got old telegraph wire
for bullets. " On tfio Chltral line ot com
munication an electric wire was run every
night so as to completely enclose the camp
If any ot'tho enemy crept up to steal rifles
or possibly to shoot or stab a sentry at his
post as soon as he touched the wire an in
dicator in the quarter guard showed what
section had been Interfered with , an alarm
boll ringing at the same time. During the
day the protecting wire was taken up. This
precaution saved the llvea ct many soldiers.
A perfectly white squirrel , with pink eyes
was caught by an hunter near South Wind-
ham , Conn. , a few days ago.
