t Ho had to overturn n thousand
shoots to find n missing page , nnd eve
ry sheet ho turned mada him mnddcr ,
until , growing furious , ho throw the
bundle down nnd then upturned the
very ono ho wanted. It was the last
pngo. of course. This provoking state
of things often occurs in n thousand dif-
fcroiiBways. Look for anything and
among many things and it is the last
thing to como to hand. But to those of
methodic turn the perplexity never
comes , nor to men of observation who
closely watch nil things there is no con
's fusion or delay in knowing where to
i find them. It is Bo in everything ; event
t in pain nnd misery. There is scarcely
nn individual sufferer who strikes the
best thing first. At llrst ho begins by
thinking it will euro itself , nnd suffers
on with groundless hone. By this time
it has become n chronic ngony from a
Blight disturbance to the functions. Ho
tries some simple homo relief which
never mitigates. It is the strangest ev
idence of this perversity to find among
a thousand letters the self-same pro
crastination. Ono says : "I tried numberless

"All sorts were- tried nnd finally"
Yes , all sorts were tried and finally they
tried the bcstnnd only euro. Why make

Efgctrlclty nt/n nniifiuct.
The fifth annual banquet of the Chicago
cage real cstato board was hold at the
Grand Pacific hotel the other day , and
225 covers were laid in the largo banqueting -
quoting hall. One of the local papers
in describing the table decorations , has
the following : "Tho table decorations
were of the most superb nnd oyo-rnv-
ishlng character. Each table had for
its center piece a jardiniere of white
and yellow roses , whoso pure tints were
offset by a hundred sprays of hyacinths
and ferns innumerable. As for the long
table , at which the speakers and promi-
icnt guests sat , it wns cnchnntingly
.darned. Mlmituio houses nestling
amid n veritable forest of flowers , the
louses moss-covered and glistening
atmospheric dew , nnd as if to sur
mount this climax and render the orua-
nation yet more unique , from the part-
ng centers of the roscsshouo. with cap
tivating radiance , a tiny incandescent
ight , the battery that controlled it bo
ng hidden beneath the table. This is
a now form of "electrical apparatus , and
this is its advent in the manner desig-
lated. The battery is technically
cnown as the 'storage. '
Making Electric Wire Harmless.
A device has been tested in Cincin
nati for rendering a broken electric
viro harmless to any ono who may come
11 contact with it. This is an instru-
nent attached to each of the main
wires leading from the generators and
jy its action , whenever a brealc in the
wire occurs , the current is checked nnd
an alarm bell as sounded. Its operation
so far , is reported satisfactory , and if it
continues to do the work intended it
will certainly lessen the dangers from
.his . cause.
A Narrow Escape.
San Francisco Call : Three men car
ried the stiff form of Robert W. du Rose
i. light trimmer for the California olc-
; ric light company into the receiving
iiospital the other day.
"He must bo dead , " was the involun
tary ejaculation of one of thorn as they
.aid the form unon the operating table.
And it did seem as if such was the case
to those who wore present. Du Rose's
[ ace was ashen in hue , and his body and
limbs were as stiff as if they were pf
iron. A touch betrayed | that the skin
was as cold as ice. When the eyelids
wore raised by Steward Koosher noth
ing but the whites of the eyes could be
seen. No trace of n pulse boat could bo
felt at the wrist.
Ho wns fixing ono of the electric
lamps at Washington-street , wharf , and
got a shock of electricity , " explained
ono of the men who had carried Du
Rose in , hurriedly.
Steward Koosher lost not a second.
Ho .quickly opened the young man's
shirt front , and then , gratping his
arms , worked them vigorously like
pump-hunalcs. Ho pressed them ,
upon the breast Of the unconscious man
and raised them over his head. For a
moment or so no visible sign of lifo was
apparent , but shortly a tremor was seen
to go through the frame as the quick
ness of the motion was increased. Soon
a faint gasp came from between the
clenched teeth , and it was evident that
the lifo spirit that had seemingly fled
had not entirely gone. Steward
Koosher persisted in his treatment , and
other signs of life were visible.
Dr. Buckley then arrived , and the
young man was removed to a cot in the
hospital.
Under treatment ho was soon able to
open his eyes , but there was a lack
lustre stare in them. His body twitched
nervously from the effects of the elec
tricity with which it was charged.
Dr. Buckley , however , pronounced
his chance of recovery as good.
From those persons who took Du Rose
to the hospisal , the facts of the accident
were gleaned.
Du Rose was going his rounds placing
carbons in electric-light globes. Attho
entrance to Washington btreet wharf a
glebe hangs from the shed. Du Rose
stretched up and caught it with his
plncherb to pull it down within reach.
As his pinchers closed down upon it the
current , which ' ho did not know was on ,
passed into'him. It was so powerful that
lie could not let go the pinchers , but
sank downdragging the lamp and wire.
Several bystanders rushed to him , and
ho was considered dead. Ho was placed
in n wagon and driven at once tq the
hospital. Had it not boon for the prompt
action of Steward KqoahorDuRoso would
undoubtedly have died.
Hois a mairied man , and lives with
his wife and child on Mission streetnear
Fifth. The manager of the electric light
company visited the hospital. Ho staled
that it was not a usual thing to have the
oloctrlo current on at that hour of the
day. Du Rose's clothes were wet , as
were also his feet , and ns ho stood upon
a water-soaked wharf , ho was all the
more susceptible to the shock.
"Tho accident , " said an official of the
California Electric Light company to a
Call reporter last night , "admits of a
very simple explanation. Our system
consists of two sots of wires , ono of which
wo opdrnto during the day and the
other at night. From the first is de
rived the power for the running of ma
chinery , elevators , etc. , in various parts
of the city , wliilo the second sot is used
almost entirely for lighting purposes ,
supplying the current for the street
lamps , otu. The engines are kept in
motion all the time , but the current is
entirely cut off from the night wires
during the day timo. This is the period
during which the lamps are repaired
and renewed , and the company em
ployes a number of linomeu for the pur-
"Du Rose is an experienced electric
ian , and lias been in the employ of the
company six years. In handling the
lamp to-day ho proceeded in the usual
manner , acting , of course , on the sup
position that the current was cut off.
Unfortunnlolv ono of the day wires got
ciosscd with a night wire at the corner
of Post and Kcnrny streetsand the cur
rent of electricity was transferred to
it , thus completing a circuit , in which a
lamp at the Washington street wharl
was included.
"Tlio morning was very wet , and the
ground where Du Rose stood was consequently
quently damp. No sooner had his
pincois touched the lamp than the cir
cuit wns established and the full force ol
the currant passed through his frame ,
throwing him to the ground. Its ofloci
is similar to that observed in a galvanic
battery when the current hpcoinos pow >
ciful. It is almost impo-siblo to vo
move the hands from the contact. The
pi tic el's" had to be torn from Du Ro.o'i
fingers to biouk thd circuit. Had the
Kround been dry , ho\vo\or , " or hud h (
booh standing on a hoard ho would have
been uninjured nnd unaware ol the
crossed lines.
"The effect of the current on his
frame H peculiar , however , " continued
the ofllolnl. "It is not unusual for1 the
electricity to affect a man's oycs , but
that it should bo so violent as to sus
pend animation nnd yet not destroy lifo
is something wo have had no experience
pf. Some few months ago ono of our
linemen , while repairing n light nt the
corner of Market and Fourth streets ,
accidentally touched a badly insulated
wire , Ho "was precipitated to the
ground and badly injured , but finally
recovered , the only visible effect of the
shock being a very pronounced squint ,
which has never left him since. "
I ) Rose was removed last evening to
SI. Mary's hospital and is reported by
last accounts to bo on n fair way to re
covery.
Electric liiulitliiff tit Imlln.
The electrical engineer in charge of
a Gulchor plant at Benares , India , says :
A good deal of valuable awe attached tome
mo as the sahib who controlled and had
in subjection this mysterious force and
its appliances , and a dimmer halo sur
rounded the heads of my men. ill the
eyes of their countrymen. Cominginto
the machine room at nightl would often
find the little Mohammedan lad , Ghazi ,
who had charge of the dynamo bearings
and brushes , the center of a crowd of
weallliy Mahnjans and Uabus from the
city , who would bo humbly questioning1
him as to the wonderful properties of
the machine , and ho arrogantly giving
some theory of his own fi-s gospel , and
pocketing annas for magnetising their
< nivcs on the magnet poles.
Electrical Welding.
Electrical World : c The processes ol
working metals by means of electricity
have , it seems , taken two entirely dif
ferent directions , each of which is
claimed to have its special advantages.
The electric arc , which has for a long
time boon employed for the fusion of
refractory materials to extract the
metals contained within them , is now
employed in the work of joining like
and dissimilar mctala , or , in other
words , welding them. This process
seems to have considerable Held lor ap
plication , and instances are reported in
which repairs have been effected
by its means in a very short
time which could not perhaps have
been accomplished in any other wny
without considerable difficulty. Wo are
also informed that , contrary to first impressions - <
pressions which might bo formed
thereon , the process leaves the metal
practically unchanged in its character.
This , however , has still to bo proved ,
and there is evidence to the contrary.
Attention is also called to the fact that
it makes considerable difference which
terminal the object to bo welded is
made , whether positive or negative ;
and it has been found necessary to em
ploy the carbon auxiliary electrode as
the positive in order to prevent the
oxidation of the metal worked upon. In
contradistinction to this piocess , that of
Prof. Elihu Thompson shows the flexi
bility of all the applications of electric
ity. Hero , as is well known , the arc is
intentionally avoided , nnd the heat
elTects are obtained by the use of power
ful currents sent through the material
at the points to bo joined. Of the
future of this piocess , of which many
have already seen the results , there can
bo no question. It has already been re
duced to such a practical form that its
general introduction is now a matter of
comparativdly but a few months. Those
processes , taken in connection with the
electric furnaces now employed , show
that a vast field is being opened fornow
development. The ground has alre'ady
been broken and sown.
Electric Railway Conduits.
Electrical World : While experiments
in applying the storage battery to the
propulsion of street cars are being ac
tively pushed , those who have pinned
their faith to the conduit system have
not been idle. Quito recently there has
been put into commercial operation
such a system which , according to re
port , is working successfully. Wo re
fer to the electric railway in operation
in Allegheny. The promoters of this
system have steadfastly clung to their
opinion that the conduit system is the
only one suitable for city trafilc , and ,
they claimed to have removed all the
difficulties which such a system pre
sents. It is plain that with ample pi o-
vision for drainage and cleaning pf the
conduit , nothing ought to stand in the
way of the success of a conduit system
so carefully nnd scientifically worked
out. The small loss of current which is
said to bo shown by actual experiment
at Allegheny is evidence that the vari
ous points have been well considered.
A Soap Battery.
A. V. Mosrolo says in the Electric
World : Many different substances hnvo
been proposed for making dry , or rather
moist bailers such as sand , saw dust or
plaslor saluralod with an exciting
chemical like salammoniac. I have
found a cheap and effective way of
making a battery of this kind ? consist
ing of common soap dissolved in boiling
water together with n small amount of
bran and caustic soda or potash. The
mixture is put in a jarwhilo warm with
a largo carbon polo and an amalgamated
/inc rod. When cold it sets somclhing
like jelly and makes a baltcry that will
not readily evaporate or slop over.
Electric Slgnalx for Scouts.
Philadelphia Press : James F. McLaughlin -
Laughlin , an electrician , was in the
Girard house last night , and onter-
laincd a group of friends in oleclrical
science and more wonderful rcsulls that
are yet to bo attained.
In speaking of Governor Hill's recent
message on capital execulions , ho told
of several suggestions made by electri
cal appliances and then switched on the
subject of a now invention for signal
ling during the time of war ,
"Briefly , the scheme is this , " ho said.
"Tho scouts or signal officers carry in
their knapsacks six small incandescent
lights of the diftoront primary colors.
These are connected with a very line
wire with a small battery in the knap
sack. Attached to the small globes that
inclose the lights is a very small oval
electrical motor , operated by an inde
pendent battery. When ono scout
wishes to communlcalo with another ,
ho sends ono globe high into the air
and then turns on the elecric flufd that
illuminates it. By the use of the dif
ferent colored globes and by combina
tions a conversation of any length can
DO carried on by night at long distances.
Tlio invention Will bo patented in
Europe , an J an effort will bo made to in
troduce it into the difforontEuropean
armies , as well as into the alleged army
in this counlry. " , _

Killed by nu Electric AVIrc.
Last night , says a dispatch to the St.
' . .ouis Globe-Democrat from Memphis ,
Tonn. , when the electric lights had just
) eon turned on , a half dozen lads began
experimenting with ono of the wires
.hat . had been attached to a discarded
ight. Instead of wrapping the trco
end of the wire around Iho lop of Iho
) ole , the workmen wound it around
vithin a few feet of the ground and
vithin easy reach. Several of the boys
ouchcd the wire with their bare hands
and were more or less severely shocked ,
finally ono of the number , a colored
youth named Will Somerville , touched
t with a piece of hoop iron about six
nchcs long , which ho had picked up
icar by. The instant that ho did so ho
ell headlong , arose , staggered a few
steps and fell again. Ho was picked up
n nn unconscious condition , and died
n a few minutes. The coroner's jury
ound criminal negligence on the part
of the Brush Electric Light company.
Locating a Bullet by Electricity.
Philadelphia Times : At the meeting
of the college of physicians last night ,
Dr. John Girdnor , of New York , ox-
libitod , by invitation of the college , for
, he first time , his telephonic probe , and
jxplnined its motjo of application. The
nstrument is used to locate a bullet or
other metal substance that has become
odgcdin a bodyn It is operated by the
mtural electricity in the patient. It
consists of thrco parts one a sort of
ludiphono , which is placed over the
physician's ears' , a steel probe , and a
steel bulb. The bulb is placed in the
patient's moutlr nnd the probe is in
serted in the n.wound. If the probe
strikes a piece of bone it makes no re
sponse , but if it'slrikes the metal which
caused the wound it gives distinct
clicking sounds.

An Eau Claire ( Wis. ) boy strolled into
the Brush electric company's eslablish-
ment and went to prodding the dynamo
with a butlon-hook. The latter was
drawn out of his handand short-circuit

The telephone is being largely em
ployed on the German railways , thirty
of which have already adopted it either
tentatively or otherwise. The most
favorable results have been obtained in
using it on branch lines , where it is
now employed almost exclusively.
A largo number of devices have boon
designed to overcome the humming of
wires. These "anti-hums , " as they are
called , are mostly based upon the prin
ciple of inlerpo&ilig springs which take
the strain of Iho line wire and which
prevent vibralion. Several forms pf
Iho "antihum" are sold by dealers in
electrical supplies.
A lineman of an electric light com
