ELECTRiCITY is AID . . Sir Oliver Lodge's System Sup- plies Artificial Sunshine. Weighed as Business Proposition Method Has Justified Itself and Is Now Being Taken Up on Com mercial Lines as Practical. London.-In spite of the obstinate conservatism of the average farmer much has been done to carry out Sir Oliver Lodge's plan of utilizing elec- tricity for re-eaforcing the fertility of plants. Weighed as a business proposition , Sir Oliver Lodge's system has justified itself , and what was tentative and ex perimental is now being taken up on commercial lines as a practical auxil- iary of husbandry. Lionel Lodge , who has control of this department of Sir Oliver's work , has explained the development of the past year or two and the hope they afford of further progress. "Have you ever noticed what a re markable impulse is given to the growth of crops by a thunderstorm ? " I asked Mr. Lodge. "That is the effect ! Df the strongly charged atmosphere , and our object is to supply a similar stimulus systematically. "The growth and development of plants in the Arctic regions compares favorably with that In southern coun- tries , and yet their summer is very short , and the sun's rays have to travel in such an oblique direction that much of their heating power is lost. Why is it , therefore , that the plants flourish ? The explanation lies In the strong electrical currents which are passing from the air to the earth , the effect of which can be seen In the Aurora Borealis. "The electric current can be gen- erated either by a small dynamo or from the nearest supply company's mains , and by means of a transformer it is raised to the high pressure re quired ( about 100,000 volts ) . * The cur- . rent from the transformer is more or less alternating ; that is , it is not a steady current in one direction , but oscillating first in one direction and then in the opposite. For convenience we call the current in one direction positive , in the other negative. It Is the positive , current that we : discharge . . Voung Couple Learn Telegraph Code : and Mystify Girl's Parents by Rappings on Pipes. New York.-After a courtship car ried on fcr : wireless telegraph and com- municatiuns transmitted over steam pipes connecting two apartments , which resulted In an elopement and wedding two weeks ago , when Anna- belle Rooney , nineteen years of age , 963 Washington avenue , the Bronx , be- came Mrs. James Connelly , the young I people have returned to the home of the bride's parents and have been for- given. Connelly , who is twenty-two years of age , was graduated from theClason Point Military academy a year ago. There he learned wireless telegraphy , and when he returned to the place where he boarded on the floor above the apartment occupied by the Rooney family , he rigged up a wireless station on the roof. Here he taught Annabelle how to send and take messages , and this knowledge was turned to Cupid's account when Connelly asked Anna- belle's parents for her hand , only to be laughed at as a boy by Her father. Cut off from any other communica tion with each other , the young lovers exchanged messages by wireless when Connelly went back to the military academy to . pursue his special Marconi studies. When he returned to his boarding place on the floor above the Rconey home , he and Annabelle rapped out the language of love with the shears on the steam pipes. Annabelle's father and mother were mystified by the strange rappings and when these continued in the summer . . - - ' - - - - - - - - - - , from the network of wires above the plants. Under special conditions-as where there is an excess of natural electricity-it might be advisable to use the negative , but alternating cur- rent would be of no use. "To sort out the positive and nega- tive currents from the transformer , valves specially invented for the pur pose by Sir Oliver are used. Working exactly like the valves in an ordinary pump , they allow the current to flow in one direction only , and prevent its getting back ; they thus store the elec- tricity in the .field network from which " it 'fizzes' off to the plants below. , "This field network consists of fine iron wire , the wires being spread about ten yards apart and 18 feet or so above ' the ground. The wires are so fine that it is difficult td see them even when standing immediately be- low them. "The action that the electrical dis charge has on the plants , Sir Oliver suggests may be considered as arti- ficial sunshine , and as in no way ta king the place of fertilizer. The rich- er the soil the larger the increase that may be expected.

London.-Sir Robert Anderson , for- merly head of the criminal investiga . tion department at Scotland Yard , in his reminiscences in Blackwood's Magazine , tells the following story : "A genius claimed to have diseov ered the secret of making gold , and he offered to sell it to a great city firm - a house whose name is in high repute not only in England but In all the capitals of Europe. By means of a proceps which he had discovered , the bulk of any quantity of gold could be increased by one-half , at trifling expense. "His dupes accepted his terms , sub- ject to his giving proof of the value of his discovery , and to test It they proposed to supply him with a hun- dred sovereigns and the needed plant. He 'thought scorn' of working on such a petty sum as that ; it would be . . . . . . . . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - , I Lovers Court by Wireless . . after the steam had been turned off , they began to wonder whether the house was haunted. Plumbers were called In to solve the mystery , but they could find no explanation of the rappings. It might be ghosts , they al lowed , and they were sure it was not steam. The rappings ceased when Anna- belle eloped with Connelly two weeks ago. They were married at St. John's Baptist church and immediately be- I took themselves to a furnished flat These facts were learned when they came to the Rooney home and received a blessing.

The baby had been amusing himself with the snake for a half hour. How it got into the house the family has no idea. Give Statistics Quarterly. Washington.

" ONCE A HUNTER'S PARADISE Noted Game Preserve of Tolleston Gun Club to Be Subdivided and Cut Into City Lots. Hammond , Ind.-Orders were given the other day to plat 1,70U acres be longing to the Tolleston Gun club ol Chicago , near Gary , into 16,000 city lots.rfhe land originally purchased for $17,000 now through the building of Gary is valued at $2,000.000. It was once a hunters paradise , owned by wealthy Chicagoans , and many bloody battles were fought between club watchmen and natives. Five lives were lost in this way. The club house was in bygone days the scene of bril- liant social gatherings from Chicago at the spring and fall shootings. ' Wolves , pelicans and wildcats were shot in the preserves in old days. . . . - - - - . - - . . . . . . . - - - - - - - . . . - - " - - - - - - - - - 1--- Gold-Headed Cane Swindle . - - , . . waste of time , for the process was a tedious one. "Finally it was arranged that he should have $100,000 in sovereigns , and a house was taken in Leman street , Whitechapel , and there a laboratory was fitted up for his use. The gold was placed in tanks pro- vided for the purpose , the needed chemicals were supplied , and th'ex - periment proceeded , with elaborate precautions against larceny or .fraud. "The man was emphatic in insisting on two points ; no one but himself was to enter the laboratory ; and he was to be rigorously searched every time he passed out. After many weeks , during which his visits were frequent , he disappeared ; and when eventually the door was forced , the tanks which had contained the gold were empty , and the bottles which contained the chemicals were full. What had become of the $100,000 ? The fullest Inquiry only served to elicit proof that the man xhad been searched with exemplary care at every visit "The mystery would have remained forever unsolved if the criminal had not himself supplied the solution of it. In sheer , bravado and pride in his achievement , he wrote to the firm he had swindled , telling them of his appreciation of the money , and of his confidence that they would rather lose twice as much than incur ridicule on every exchange in Europe by a prosecution which would disclose their folly. And then he revealed his meth- od. Every time he left the laboratory the gold-headed cane he carried was packed with sovereigns. " GIRLS ARE REPLACING BOYS Object of Innovation Is to Reduce the Number of Messengers Who Are Later Unable to Get Work. 0 - London.-London is soon to have girl postoffice messengers. The innovation will probably be tried first in some of the large pro- vincial offices , and if successful will be extended to St. Martin's-le-Grand and the rest of the kingdom. The ob ject of the movement is to reduce the number of boy messengers-many of whom are unable to obtain situations I when they grow up. The girl messengers will be em- ployed in indoor work of an elemen- tary nature , and it is understood that permanent positions will be found for them in due course. For Mine Rescue Stations.

"PLAY WITH THE CHILDREN" Fabled Fcuntain of Youth Could Not Be More Pctent Than Association , . " With Little Ones. . . 'Play with the children ! " was the recurrent advice of a wise and . suc cessful man. "This will keep , your heart young , your viewpoint fresh , i'our wit sparkling. The child heart is at once the purest and the happiest in nature ; the child tongue is a transfiguring power. " Something of this indubitable power attaches to good stories of those naive and innocent "little ones" scriptorally declared specially blessed and potent. The child mind transforms , the child touch lifts to glad laughter incidents and accidents not otherwise worth noting. Witness this little tale of the careful mother to whom came a tiny son all agog over the acquirement of new and forbidden knowledge. "Mother : ! " cried the child , baby ' eyes shining , baby : cheek glowing , "do you know what 'I'll be hornswog- gled' means ? " "No , dear , " said the mother , sol emnly , seizing the opportunity to im plant a lesson. "I'm sure I do not. " "Well , I do , " was the ecstatic an- swer , the suggested lesson being ut terly ignored. "It means just the same as 'I'll be gol-darned ! ' " The Return of Ferguson.

" The guest disappeared in the direc- tion of his room , one flight up.
