Mis Alexander Discovers Why Reginald Manton Could See In Her all the Grace Peculiar to Womankind Other Squibs. Why She Wilted. Reginald Marston bad been talking with Miss Alexander for at least two t. . i i - i 3 WheeIington had presented him to the heiress. AH hia best towers had been exerted to please her, and it was quite evident that he was more than suc cessful. As Wheelington came out at 11 o'clock into the fragrant summer air of the night, Marston arose to go. ' "Not yet. I hope," said Miss Alex ander detainingly. "Yes, I have xtayed too lor,- al ready," Marston aluust 'n'perd,as he took her hand. With a short frod ukht r both, he left Miss Aiew-'i-jc -n,l Wheelington on t he )uua. Wlivfr ifon took th-rhairMnreton had va .1' 1 and with the familiarity of an old friend drew it nearer that of .he young woman. "What have you been Raying of me to Mr. M.irnton?" she began impulsive- "Not n great deal of a ronipliiw-n-tary character ," he replied bunlrr innly. "There isn't much to hay, don't yon know." "Oh. of course not," flic laughed: 'hut you must have said something," ulie insisted, "for I never saw a man to earnest, so honest so persistent in lindiug in one all the graces of woman kind. Ho did it so unit rfiilly and so. charmingly, too. that really I have c;iiite fallen in love with him." Wheelington coughed ftignilicaiitly and laughed. "Indeed?" he said briefly. "Tell me," she urged, ' now that's a real nice big brother," and she took his hand caressingly in. hers. "That is," ho said alter a moment, "not much." "Oh, but it must have been a great deal." "Xo, it was only a word or two." "Pshaw," she exclaimed, snatching her baud from his, "you couldn't tell him anything about me in n word or two which could possibly have had any influence upon him." "It seems, however, my dear Miss Alexander, that I did," he said eias peratingly. She jumped up from her chair and walked across the piazza, where she stood against the rail putting, a honey suckle to pieces. "How perfectly idiotic," she ex claimed, throwing the (lower to the lloor. "What was it?" "1 told him you were very rich." (she crushed the flower under her foot and went into the house.

He hasn't, missed one in the ten years he has bean in the parish." "Dead coward, eh?" "What! Coward! Why, man, didn't I tell you that lie took part in all those troubles down there?

"0, well, of course, they weren't go ing to take any chances " "And he wore a mask." "Certainly. It wouldn't do to be recognized you know." "I understand. Afraiil to give the man they were going to kill even a chance lor his life against big odds on the one hand and afraid to face the Government on the other. What was that I said? Coward?

But suppose I was that sort of an infernal scoundrel, how much would you feel like giving me?" "About S50," replied thecandidate. "It's a whack!" replied theunbribed nnd unbought suffragan.

Aluminium Light Ships of the Ancient--An Investigation Sug gestedNew Plan of E10 trio Transit, Marvels of Electricity. Wonderful as the advances in onr knowledge and use of electricity have been in the past few years, there is reason to believe that we have yet hardly crossed the threshold of dis covery in this direction. Hints of what it to come occasionally escape from the laboratories and studies of the men who are now pushing on the outposts of electrical science, and these hints sometimes fairly take away the reader's breath. Men of sci ence have not yet settled the question of what electricity is, but .every new discovery shows more and more plain ly that, whatever it may be, there is hardly any natural phenomenon in which it does not play a more or less important part. Professor Oliver J. Lodge thinks electricity is a mode of manifestation of the ether, that straue medium which is supposed to pervade all space, and to carry light from sun to planet, and from star to star. In a recent address Professor Will iam Crookes points out some of the marvellous powers and possibilities that the continued advance in our knowledge of electrical phenomena seems about to placo within our grasp. Man is constantly searching for new and cheaper sources of energy by means of which he' may drive his en ginesand carry on;in its fast-multiplying forms, the work that civilization demands to have done. But men of science, lik Professor Crookes.say that in a single cubic foot of the ether, in which the earth is sub merged, ten thousand foot tons of en ergythat is, force enough to lift ten thousand tons one foot lie imprison ed, only awaiting t he m n ic touch Jof science to be loosem il for i he service of man. They tell us, also, that the lat est re searches give us reason to hope that these stores of power may actuully be opened and drawn upon. Professor Nicholas Tesla iAVs already succeeded in producing in a room an electrostatic field, into which if a glass tube exhausted of air is carried, the tube will glow with light' and illumin ate the rooiA like a lamp. It now ap pears, us Professor Crookes says, that "A true flame can be cprodmwl without chemical aid a flame which yields light and heatf Hthout the con sumption of material nnd without any chemical process." Those who have studied "the chemistry of the candle" will appreciate what this means. To telegraph without wires, to get light without heat, to nwvko solid walls in effect transparent such are some of the strange possibilities alter which students of electricity may now strive with fair hopes of success; and the attainment oi these ends would mark but a single step in the advance of modern science. Alumlnlun Light. A very intense light, such as is re quired for photograpic or occasional ly for medical purposes, may, as is well known, be readily obtained by burning magnesium ribbon which has, however, tho disadvantage of being somewhat expensive. An excellent substitute has been found by a French chemist, M Villon, in aluminium, which is about a third of the price of magne sium, and which may be utilized in the same manner by burning it in a spirit lamp, or, if a llanie of more in tense brilliancy is required, in a coal, gas, or spirit llame supplied with a jet of oxygon. In theso it burns without emitting fumes, in which respect it is superior to niaguesiuni. The light given by aluminium has a high actinic power nearly as high, indeed, astliat of mag nesium. The most convenient way of obtaining a very intense light, ac cording to M. Villon, is to use a lamp provided with a jet of oxygen at tho center of its llame, into which powder ed aluminium mixed with a quarter of its weight of lycopodium and a twentieth of its weight of nitrate of ammoniumcan bepro'jected by means of a tube furnished wit h an air ball. This gives an exceedingly intense light, without smoke. A mixture of aluminium powder with chlorate of potash and sugar ca n be ignited.gi viug an intense light by means of gun. cot ton, but is somewhat dangerous. Probably the best plan for medical photography, or for laryngosconic and auroscopic aud other demonstra tions, would be to burn a ribbon of aluminium in an ordinary spirit lamp. Of course, if oxygen and oxy hydrogen, or an oxy alcoholic lamp were at hand a much more intense light could be ob tained. The Inicet. New Plan of Electric Transit. A new plan of electric transit, which does away with the trolley wire and poles and which is pronounced as cheap of construction And of opera tion as the trolley system is to be tried in ,St. Louis. The following de scription of the method of operation is found in the Brooklyn Eagle. Tlie current is carried by an insulated wire in tho conduit, connected with a scries of pendant switches 12 feet apart. The switches are insulated when they hang vertically, their natural position. Underneath the car, attached to it by thin metal posts ruimingthronah a slot slightly narrower than that in a cable road, is what is called a Bhoe. This shoe is a thin piece of metal with an insulnted bottom 13 feetlong,about 8 inches wide, and with tho insulator inch or less thick. Aa th forward end of the shoe tichcs the bottom or brush of one of the pendant switch es it pushes it out of plumb, and in that way establishes a connection through the switch with the insulated current-bearing wire. The switch is kept pressed at an angle allowing a free How of the cur rent 'as long as the shoe touches it. When the shoe passes the switch falls back. by itn weight and the current is cut off. But tho switches are 12 feet apart and the Bhoe is 1 3 feet long, so that before it lets go of a switch be hind the forward end has caught an other, thus eipplyint a continuous currrnt tbroegh the ho up to the motor in the car. The ht. Louis raad ill be done and rara running on it by March 1, when Brooklyn and other lit stern street railroad men will be asked out to took it over. One ele ment in the cheapness of the new scheme, as claimed by its promoters, is that there is practically no Iom of current in transmission, while with overhead wires an allowance is made for a leakage of 10 per cent in ordi nary weather, aud in wet weather and fogs the loss is much heavier, as every one knows who has tried to talk over a telephone on a rainy day. Burning Brick With Browncoal. In Germany and Austria brown coal in a raw state is used for burn ing brick, stoneware and drain tile, for which purpose it is preferred to any other fuel. Brick clays nnd fire clays are often found in close prox imity to the browncoal, and the man ufacture of brick, fire brick and t iles, at anextremely low price is thus rendered practicable, and a great number of mine) have brick yards in connec tion with them by means of which they are enabled to make nse of all their coal, eveii what would other wise be refuse. At one ot the large brick works on the Rhine the experience of several years trial proves that a firing with a mixture of browncoal briquettes and raw brown coal gave better results in actual work than stone coal alone, stone coal with briquettes, or stone coal and raw browncoal, and at the time of my visit works were just being completed for briquetting their browncoal for use in this man ner. In using this earthy browncoal lor such liring purposes, or under steam boilers and elsewhere,' due attention is given to the arrangement of the fire boxes and grates to suit the fuel. If a Hat grate is used the grate bars are made very narrow and with small in tervals between each. The favorite grate, however, is called the "treppen rost," and is a grate airangedina series of steps by which the air gets proper access to the browncoal with out need of a blast sufficient to carry a way the smaller particles unburned. Ships of the Ancients, Large ships were net unknown to the ancients, and some of the most roomy attained dimensions equal to ships of modern tunes. Nevertheless, they were unmanageable monstrosi ties, almost at tho mercy of wind and wave, and utterly unfit to cope with the fury of a hurricane. Doubtless we are Indebted to travelers' tales tor the detailed descriptions that survive the lapse of ages. Constantius conveyed from Heliopolis to Rome an obelisk .weighing 1,500 tons, nnd, in addition to tliis 1 long-coveted monolith, the ship carried about 1,200 tons of pulse stowed about the smaller end of the obelisk, in order to bring the ship on an even keel. In 268 B. C, Archimedes devised a marvelous ship for-Iliero of Syracuse. Her three lofty masts had beet brought from Britain, whereas our ship's masts are of iron, and obtained from New Zealand, or from Vancouver Island. Luxuriously fitted sleeping apartments abounded, and one of her banqueting halls was paved with agate and costly Sicilian stone. Other floors were cunningly inlaid with scenes from the Iliad. Stables for mauy horses, ponds stocked with live fmh, (gardens watered by artificial rivulets, and hot baths were provided for use or amusements. Ptolemy Philopater possessed, nuptial yacht, the Thahvmegrbn; 312 feet long' and 45 feet deep. A graceful gallery, sup ported by curiously-carved columns, ran ronnd the vessel, and within were temples of Venus and of Bacchus. Her mnsts were 100 feet high, her sails nnd cordago of royal purple hue. Chamber's Journal. The Moon and the Weather, The influence of the moon over the weather h.os been recognized by a certain class of people for at least 15,000 years perhaps twice that long. Its effect upon the tides has long been an established fact; and, if itcan exert such a power over the huge bodies of water which go to make up our seas and oceans, why not over the mists of the atmosphere? Exactly what ellect Luna has over the waters and atmosphere of oir world it would be unsafe to venture un opinion upon; certain it is however that there are phases of the moon that may appro priately be termed "wet," and others which may with equal propriety be called "dry," This opinion has the support of Newton, Ilerschel, Mitihell and many other noted scientists. The Scandi navians, I he English nnd the Germans reposo more confidence hi moon lore than any other class of people. Occasionally a person may bo found who has a superstitious belief in tho effects of tho moon upon vegetation, but science has demonstrated that these results may all be attributed to the conditions of the atmosphere.- St. liouis Republic. An Inventive Suggestion. A gentleman of inventive mind, suggests the following method of get ting rid of tho overhead electric trol ley, telegraph and telephone wires: Let a suitable: conduit of cast iron be devised, which shall, at thesametime, serve the purpose of curbstone.to the sidewalks. It can tlien be placed in position, bo easy of access by proper openings, and answer the double end of being at once a substantial curb and a safe ami convenient receptacle for the now unsightly, annoying and dangerous wires onpolcsinthestreets. Borne diiliculties may be encountered on the score of induction and other wise, but minor and secondary troubles, such as these, in most in ventions are eeuerally overcome. The idea nt least seems plausible, and the sucgestiou is worthy of consideration. Trade Journal. Director of the- Sun. The petty sovereign ..; of a tribe of North American Indians has a custom by which ho disjtl&ys his superiority, not only to all the world, but to the heavenly bodies as well. Everv morning lie stalks solemnly out of liis door, and stands until tho sun appears above the horizon. Then with his finger he indicates tlie ceurso throuah the sky which he expects the sun to take. Then having marked out the sun's course for him. he de votes the rest of the day to directing his tribe. Although the poor Indian's notion of his on importance is ab surd, yet so many of us have equally absurd notions of our importanco that we can afford to think twice bt fers we laugh at him.

Y., so yon had better arrange for your own wire, unless your gates are so constructed that we can put on the wire without much trouble and you allow us the difference. Make our order seventy-eight, Including the one sent to Chicago instead of seventy-five as was ordered. . Yours truly, Southwestern Steel Post Co. By T. J. Pkosser, Pres. J. W.
