A HUNDRED GREAT FORTUNES List Shows thnt Only Half Are Mnilo and Held la United Stntes. A list of tho names of the possessors of I the inn largest fortunes In the world which has been prepared may not be complete. trary, for no Croerus tells. If he knows as he usually does not what Is the real value of his possessions at any given day. The list Is Interesting. In any event, and leads off naturally enough with John D. Rocke feller, who Is followed rather closely by Belt and Robinson, the South African mag nates. It Is found that fifty-one of these fortunes have been made and are held In the United States, twelve In England, six In Russia, six In Austria and six In Ger many, while the rest are assigned to other parts of the world. No one Is Included In the list who is not worth at least 120,000.000 and the combined wealth of theso 100 men is nearly seven billions of dollars. Many of the old world fortunea are naturally vested In crowned heads and other land owners who have profited by Inheritance. The American fortunes, on the at her hand, are very largely self-made. From the great natural resource of this new, vigorous land these tens and' hundreds ' millions or aoiisrs nave neen aenvea ov active, shrewd men, who have made their winnings grow by wise investment until ) nev ve attained the surprising results which we see today. Fourteen of the fifty' one are credited to banking and finance, seven to oil, seven to railroads, three to steel, three to sugar, two to Journalism, two to real estate, two to copper, one to beer, one to tobacco and one to meat. In the nature of the case some of the fortunes are difficult to classify; they have come by divers meana through divers activities. The only women numbered In the list, barring Bertha Krupp, the German Ironmaster's daughter, and some crowned heads, are Americans Hetty Green and Mrs. Anna Welxhtman Walker. The aentlments aroused by going through these names are certain to be various. Borne may argue that the fortunes were In most cases improperly acquired; in any event the owners should be dispossessed of their hoards for the common advantage. Fortunately, such reflections come to but few Inhabitants of this country, which pro duced so many of this mass of wealth Young America Is ruled by other feelings.

Philadelphia Ledger. RECENT ELECTRIC PROCRESS City Electrician' Kichaelsen Talks of the Science as Applied. WIRELESS TELEGRAPH IN tt.ati Paalaeu's Isaaroresaeats Will Make It More Effective aad of Krea Greater aerrlre Maaklad. "Were t railed upon to select the new electrical device above all ethers which will be of the greatest benefit to humanity, I would aayxthe wireless telegraph," said City Electrician Mlchaelsen, who has re cently returned . from a trip to Europe, where he devoted considerable time to the study of new electrical apparatus. "Of course the wireless telegraph devloes now In use do not fulfill the requirements, but they are a long step in the right direction. We do not know of the possibilities of the System on land, as the whole thing Is primitive so far; but we do know something of Its possibilities at sea. The changes wrought by this Invention on ocean liners Is marvelous. One must have taken trips under the old and the new conditions to appreciate the change. Before the Intro duction of the wireless method persons at sea were practically Isolated from their kind; today a man can go to the bulletin board and ascertain what Is going on in any parts of the world. System Not Yet Perfect. "Two things are yet to be accomplished to make the system perfect at sea; these are to find a successful method by which messages can be transmitted long dis tances without relay and to throw se crecy around the messages, and we can confidently look for both of these to be accomplished before long. A man named Paulsen of Copenhagen has Invented a system, which Is declared by experts to have solved the problems, but the device Is not yet in use. It would be difficult to explain the method so It could be under stood by the average person whose knowl edge of electric phenomena Is not ex tensive, but Paulsen's experiment deals with the length of the wave which Is given Im pulse by tthe -electrical current. These waves In the other may be long and smooth, end have comparatively short life and little penetrating power, or they may be short, shsrp and of longer life and greater pen etrating power. It Is alleged that the Paul sen device has attained what Is now con sidered the shortest and most long-lived wave known. In addition to this quality of long life the waves may be so altered as to be Intelligently received only by the person at the receiving station for which they are Intended. The system also has the merit of being much cheaper In construc tion and of requiring lesa power to oper ate. Problems of Power. "Another Important invention which Is among those which will be of commercial value In comparatively few years Is ono which will work a revolution In steam rail roads. That the trolley system of trans mission of power for railways is not a complete success Is, patent to all who know anything about the subject, and some other method must be devised before electricity can be used for regular tram service on a largo scale. "The problems which face the steam railway operating department is the weight of the engines and traction. We have prac tically reached the maximum In the size of engines. The firebox is now as wt'e as the track .and its limit Is reached unless the English system of placing two boilers on each locomotive, end to end, and have a double firebox. The difficulty In securing proper traction is met by many and large drive wheels and by the great weight of the' locomotive, but the limit weight Is fixed by the strength of rails and roadbed. The new system of electric power for rail ways will be solved by providing a heavy locomotive on which is placed the boiler, and engine and a dynamo. From this dy namo the electrical current will be led to motors on the engine and on each of the cars in the train. This will give to each car Its own motive power and will give fur greater traction, thus Increasing the I possibility for speed with greater safety. Revolatlon In Llhtta" Impends. "In the matter of lighting we are on the verge of a revolution, though In recent years we have made but little apparent progress. The way In which we make light now la by heating a body and when It comes to a white leat we use Its In candescence. This Is a very expensive and crude way In which to make light, as we really make heat and then use the light derived from heat. It will soon be possible to mske light by producing di rectly the vibrations of ether which con stitute light. This Is accomplished In part at present, for Instance, In the mercury vapor tube Invented by Peter Cooper Hewitt and also In what la known as the Moore's tube. I'ntll thts system Is devel oped, and It may take yeara, we are not going to be left In the lurch, or In as bad condition as we are now. Many Improve ments are being made In Incandescent lamps. Perhaps ten or twelve people In vsrlous parts of the world are working on practically the same thing, the metallic ftlilment lamp. This lamp will enable us to produce one candle power with the expenditure of energy known as one watt, while the most economical Incandenscent lamp today takes i watta per candle power. This will mean a revolution In Incandescent lighting and will probably bring the coat of electric lighting down to a point where It will lie the cheapest lighting to be had. Soma of these lamps are now on the market, but they are still too expensive to make them commercially possible, and It Is also Impossible to get them delivered, as the factories are flooded with orders. I do not think it wise to believe that this lamp will be commercially practical for one or two years. F-ven though they were perfected la every detail, today it would take factories at least six months to begin to fill orders. Wetisrel Service in l.lahtln. "In this connection here Is a new device which is largely used in Germany to regu late the use of electricity in apartment houses and other places where much light is needed at times and little at others, and the time Is not fixed. By this device after the lights have been shut off In halls and rooms common to all tenants It la possible for, any tenant by touching a button to renew the light for a given time, say one to three minutes. When the button Is touched a lever is lifted which turns on the current and a weight Is automatically lifted. The lifting of tlila weight relesses a aprtng which actuates clockwork and as the wheels go around the weight drops. When the weight has reached the bottom of the box the current la shut off. The device Is quite popular In continental Europe, where the people not only demand the beet there Is, but insist upon paying the lowest possible price for the service. Good-Bye, ateaogrrapher. "Another invention Just about ready for the market Is the telegraphone. This Is the invention of Paulaen of Copenhsgen, mentioned in connection with the latest wireless telegraph device. The telegra phone, Is for practical demonstration prac tically the. same as the phonograph, but the manner in which it stores and rtpro- doces sound Is on a different theory en tirely. The discovery on which the tele graphone ia based la that a steel hand or disc may be magnetized In spots, while the old theory was that If Iron, no matter what Ita shape, waa magnetized it would result In the Iron getting a north pole at one end and a south pole at the other, the magnetism always seeking the extreme end of the body. This theory was dis proved by Paulsen, as he demonstrated that a steel disc may be msgnetlzed strongly and permanently In spots close to one another and without one magnetic pole having any effect on the other spots. By means of this discovery the telegraphone has been constructed and It Is possible to talk Into an ordinary telephone and thereby deposit the speech on steel wire. The tele graphone Is so constructed that when used for practical purposes a man may have one apparatus Into which he talks on his desk, while the machine csrrylng the steel bands may be placed In a . distant room, where It may be under the supervision of his' stenographer, who can In this manner receive the dictation. The machine on the desk can be so arranged that after a let ter has been dictated the sender can have It read back to him from the steel wire with no further trouble than the throwing of a lever. If the dictator finds any part of the letter he desires to change, he can run the steel band bark wards while the current Is on and the machine automatically obliterates the record and Is ready for the reception of new matter. This machine will come Into general use, though It will take time to perfect and Introduce It. Records May Be Mailed. "I believe the time will come when these steel bands or wire records can be mailed direct without being typewritten and can then be translated to the person addressed by being Inserted -upon his machine. In this manner no one but the man who dic tates the letter and the man who receives It can know Its contents. No stenog rapher need be made a party to the com munication. It is further noteworthy that one can copy the record on this steel hand by running the band through the machine which electrically makes a copy without making It audible, and It further promises to make possible not only one, but 1,000 copies simultaneously. I do not say that with an understanding of Its construction and modus operandi there Is nothing here mentioned but what can be reasonably be expected. "Ono place where Invention la needed Is In the matter of long transmission of power. Whether this method of providing power Is ever going to be whst the world at large expects Is difficult to prophesy. It Is true that electricity can he produced more cheaply by water power Jthan by fuel, but It is also trus that at the present time that the cost of transmission ts so great as to nearly equalize this expenditure. The Interest on tho money which must be invested In a line capable of earning such high pressure current will be so great that I fear the final cost will bo as much ss coal. I say this In spite of the recent developments of such power In the east and tho west. Niagara Is providing power In New York and Canada and water power Is being utilized with n fair degree of suc cess In California. Further study along these lines Is needed and one would be foolish to predict that discoveries will not be made which will render long trans mission of power for mercantile purposes practical. Carelessness the Only Dnnicer. "One of the late discoveries relates to safety of persons, not well versed In elec tricity, who use electric lights and rower. We rend much shout accidents snd firos caused by electricity, a great deal of wMrh Is unfounded. Klectrl.-lty Is probably th" safest, mot convenient and mort hvglenlc mnnner of lighting. It Is true that the transmission of electricity lonr d'sfances, even In cities, by the use of hlrrh potentials or pressure does constitute a flsnger to life of those who sre working on the wires, hut with -proper line const rurtton and proper Inside construction this dantjer I abolntelv eliminated from the layman who Is to ha-d'e It. It can be safely asserted thnt wherever accidents or fire really occurs from elec tricity. It Is generslly the result of care lessness on the part of a workman or, much more frequently the result of tsmrcrlnir with wires or Installation by some one who knows nothing about It. A larse number of people think they know all about rloc trlclty, while they really know roM"g about It, snd many of these people trk It upon themselves to alter Installation whlMi Is safe, or make new Installation, and thus Import Into the use of electrlrllV a danger which Is not present when It Is prcporly used. "In this connection the exper's who de vote their time to the studv of the subject have decided that the best and m"st mod ern manner annllcstlon of Fafetv lntnl'lner wires for the use of tho kind of ele?tricitv we have In this country Is that one of the wires that supply the current must be In clear and permanent connection with the ground. This Is a new rule by the most romneent electrical engineers which ts heartily commended by the National Fleo trleal Code, the requirement of the National Board of Fire 1'nderwrlters for electrlrat work, and It Is of great Importance that this ruling be spread to all persons connected with the Installation of electrical dev'cs and that all central station men loam It. Several state supreme courts have held that a t -rounded secondary wire Is a prac tical means of providing for the safety of Interior wiring supplied with currents fr-m transformers and have assessed heavy damages In rases where death occurred in the absence of this precautionary measure. "If a wire which leads to a house 'gets Into contact with a wire carrying a high potential this pressure will be conducted to the ground If the wire Is In contact with the ground. If It is not so connected the current remains on the wire until someone touches It and death results. Bo the Im portance of this new method of Installing cannot be too strongly Impressed upon all persons. RBI.IGIOIS NOTES. Rev. Pollln Thomas Chamherlaln and Pr.

"The Goddess of Reason," by Mary Johnston, is a poetic drama in which she shows herself as much a master of th.it form as she was of the historical novel. In which she has won such distinguished success. The play, which haa the interest of a novel, deals with the dramatic con trasts, the passionate action', the soaring ambitions and tragic falls of the French revolution. In the richness of the hlstorlo background, In vividness of characterisa tion. In strength of situation, as well as In the charm of poetic atmosphere that is spread .over the whole, the play Is very notable. Although It Is Miss Johnston's first venture In the field of poetic drama, which ia now being so actively cultivated once more, It will at once give her rank as one of the most distinguished as well as most readable poetic dramatists of the day. It is attractively printed, with an embla matic title page and head and tall pieces In the French style of a century ago. Pub lished by Houghton, Mifflin Co.
