CHALLENGED TO A DUEL
On the 11h of April following , during the
sessIon of time house , Pryor demante ] of Potter

occasion , and of a correction In the report of
this language , whIch Poler had made ant
erned.
Pryor had sUbsequcnt )
Peter made an explanation which should
mat
have been entirely satisfactory ; also asserting
hIs right to make the correction , and denying
Pryor's rIght to erase it. lut Pryor was le-
termlmd not to he satisfied , and evidently had
an ulterior ! object In demanding the explana-
tlon ; and , replying to Potter , ho saId :

guage. I am very gad : to her it. I under-
stand him then to give me the liberty of
construing his remark as I please. I wIll
put what construction I please upon It , anl
whether or not he stands by It , the sequel
will demonstrate. . " To which Potter replied ,
"Let It temontrate , "
THE WEAPONS UNSATISFACTORY.
The result was a challenge from Pryor to
fight a duet ; which Potter promptly accepte'l ,
naming as terms bowie knives at five pJces :
terms which he welt knew Pryor woud : not
dare to accept , as ho was a small man , whl .
Potter was a large , powerful man , and In hs !
western pioneer life . had beome familiar
with the me of the , bowie knife. Pryor te-
dined on the ground that the propold tera
were bmeath the dignity of a gentleman to
accept ; and so the mater emle . lut a
laughable Incl.lent grew out of I , whe' ! Love-
joy used to relate for the entertainment of his
friends. On the day following the chal-g ,
while the result was still unknown , both h Pot-
ter and Pryor were absent during roll call .
and when Pot r's name was called a Quaker
member rose , and , In a quaint voice , said :

frst . \V. Murray , an old and trusted engineer
of the Baltimore & Ohio , stood at the con-
troiler.
ApproachIng the south portal of the tunnel
: : speed or only twenty miles an hour was
developed , owing to the curves and swltebe
at that place. The start was made wIth an
easy forward glide of the locomotive. Enter-
Ing the tunnel the englneman twirled the
wheel around. ' fixing the controller onspeed'er '
notches Under the Impetus thus given the
locomotive dashed forward As steady as a
palace car , owing to the absence of vibrating
parts , It few past the double row of electric
lights which illuminated the tunnel at a
speed lghts that seemed to blend their glimmer Into
trails of light stretching to the north openIng
of the tunnel. So smooth anti steady was the
motion that the rapid rate dId not appear un-
usual All on board kept firm grips on their
hats as the cool air of the tunnel whistled
through the cab ,
Engineer Shepard stood at the speed-record-
lug apparatus watching the movements of the
Instrument. Nearing the norther portion of
the tunnel the power was shut oft and the
specd was reduced The announcement was
SPE
then made that an actual speed of slxty.onc
miles an hour had been attained. A smleof
intense satisfaction oversprel the counte-
nanccs of the electrical experts at this re-
suit , and Dr. Duncan expressed hImself as
greatly pleased with that test
Much Interest was manlfeste In the performance -
formance of the flexible trolley during the
trIal This feature of the electric locomotive
has attracted general attention , ant many
queries have been made as to its adapabty
for even ordinary service , not to speak of fast
speed trials. The trolley mechanism was
closely watched during the trip , all at the
speed maintained It took the irregularities
of the overhead structura . with : apparent per-
fecton , there being not the slightest hItch or
jar In its operation. The trolley shoe glided
wIth remarkable precision through the elec-
trIc conduit at one moment bringing out the
full extension of the fexlhle -imaft , then dipping -
ping down to wIthin a few feet of thc loco
town
motive , running on one side and then on the
other , and not a single spark or sputter was
to be obEerved.
When the locomotive was first used with
heavy service trouble was encountcred. owing
to the heating of the trolley shoe. This was
due to the fact that time overhead conductor
had been In position for some time . and not
having been used an accumulation of scale
had developed , ImpaIrIng the contact ef the
trolley jhoe. No further trouble has been i
found since this scale was removed , and [ a
'
recurrence of time difficulty Is not expected.
The burst of speed resulting In the development -
mont of a rate of sixty-one miles an hour was
made on the heavy grade of the tunnel , and
the ellneer said It was equivalent to se\-
onty-five miles an hour on a level traclt. The

performance of the locomotive was such that
they would not hesitate to run I at that or
even a greater speed I they had a sufficient
stretch of track for the purpose. Locomotive

SUPERIOR TO STEAM.
Much has been saIl of late about the Nan-
tasket ant Mount Holy electric railways ,
which have superseded steam lines , but It
seems from a letter In Engintering News ,
written hy Superintendent George Macleoll of
the Kentucky and Indiana Bridge company ,
that the electrIc line belonging to that organization -
panlzaton Is not only the oldest electric
'
line In' operation on steam railway tracks ,
but posslhl the only one on which a lrge
numbcr of electric and steam trains are run
over the Sme roadbed . Prior to August ,
1893 , the company operated Its suburban line ,
between Louisville , Ky. , and New Albany , I
Ind. , by steam , running trains every thirty 'I '
minutes. It was decde to change the mo-
tve power to electricity , however , because a
more frequent service , every fifteen minutes
with a correspondingly Increased travel , could
be hat at a lower cost per passenger mile .
The line comprises 2.1 miles of double track
road and two miles of single track The
later Is on a viaduct In Louisville and on
the company's long cantilever bridge over
the Ohio river , which also carrie two read- I
ways. The electric traIns ! use the '
bridge and tracks ' In common wIth '
the freight and passenger trains
of the lialtimoro & Ole Southeastern I
Daltmore : Southeatern railway
)
and the Southern railway , and the company's '
own switching englms , which transfer freght' !
between the two cIties . About 270 trJl1 are
run over this 4.1 miles of main track daily
of which a little more than half are electrl
trains. The road Is operated on the block :
system. There are ten stations On the line
and schedule time of the electrIc trains , In _
eluding the ten stops , Is seventeen minutes
for the 4.1 miles . Tbe electrIc can are
twenty-elgbt feet long , Inside measurement
and those used a motor cars have vesttbu'ed
ends ; the trains consist of two trailers and a
motor car , the later having two fifty-horse
power motors. But one accident has occurred
In the two year since the system was put
In operation , and that was a deraUmelt due
to . mIsplaced switch. Mr. MacLOd elosM

AIMINUM lY E.f c'hoL\SIS.
One of the frt uses 10 'hJph the current
generated : at the large NimaTa falls electric
plant has beelr put Is thl , manufacture of
aluminum from bauxite 1 by electrolysis.
What the value of such a source . of electric
current lay bo to factories II , the neighbor-
hoed of Niagara , to say n9thtl of those mata
a distance , Is suggested by the fact that , nl-
though the present alullnlm 'yorlcs arc constructed .
structed to produce ,000 p9unds of pure
alumlr.um a day , the complete success of
the electrolytic proces has convinced the
managemer.t that the doubling of the resources -
sources of the factory by its means Is a
comparatively clmple mimatter . More pots arc
to be put In as rapidly as possible , until 10 , .
000 pounds of the pure metal , worth In small
quantities GO cents a pound , Is turned out
daily. The process Is described as follows :
Pots containing oxide of aluminum , or al-
umina , which Is to be changed Into pure
ahlnlntm , are arranged In long rows In a
large reduction room Each hot Is lned with :
carbon , the lining forming the negative electrode -
trode In the process of reduction . The positive -
tl'e pole consists of a row of copper rods ,
terminatng In I huge carbon anomie , which
extends Into the pot. The oxide , In a pulverized -
vrlzed state , looking very much like four ,
Is placed In the pot , the carbon anodes ex.
tending : throUgh the mass , and the current ,
carried by great copper ' rods through the
entire length of the row of pots Is turned
on The electricity Is allowed to do Its work
for twenty-four hours , after which the pure
aluminum Is drawn out and cast Into ingots .
gets By the new Process the aluminum ,
which Is separated from the ore by the ac-
ton of the electricity , and the fluxes used
to facilitate melting , accumulate about tIme
negatvo electrode , which In this case Is the
carbon-lined bottom of the pol The IngenuIty -
Ity of this arrangement Is evident. Thc tre-
mcndous current heats the carbon of both
the lining and the anodes to the point of
whiteness , and the meltng of tIme ore by this
heat Is an Important factor In the manufacture -
facturoof the metal. As I Is ladled from
the pots I Iboks l like ordinary lend heated
heatet
to a red heat , but when pourcd Into thc
molds I glstens with almost snowliko
whiteness . and the roughly cast Ingots thus
produced have the luster of polished silver.
LIHT VERSUS LA IPS.
A short lifo and a merry one Is to be thE
guidIng principle of the new order of lamp
manufacture. At ono time an Ineande3cent
lamp cost so much that I was made to last
as long as possible , even If I had to be run
at much below ! its nominal calle : pwer.
Now lamps are cheap amid people insIst ! on
havIng light . A slgnlfcent sIgn of time len.
dency of the times Is that the twenty-five
candle power lamp I daily beng ! put In In
place of the origInal standard sIx tOl candle
power lamp I Is assumed that when Edison
alopted [ the sixteen candle power standard
for his lamp he took what was probably : a
very good average of the illumination given
out by the five , foot gas burners the country
over But during the last fifteen years the
standard has baen raised
gas stantud en through Im-
provements In m3unfacture. and whereas
tWEnty candle gas was once seen , the larger
cites of the country no , , average well up
to twenty.Jve candle gas The public imas
not been slow to see tItle , all \ demands
a unit of light at least equal to thc prevailing
standard gas unit. Thl central stations ,
fortunately for them , realize the sluJon ! ,
and the use ot high economy lJmps Is grow-
Ing. I Is noted , too that timtimne-honored
GOO hours of life II not nearly solen Insisted
on as formerly Indeed , the sptclfe requ're-
lament now commonly mate Is fo a lamp thaI
will mantaln' ! its elnlc power at h'gh
economy for from ,300 , to , 400 hours. The ,
introduction of lamps of ' \\en y-fve candle ,
powe1' , alhough already etai'td upon , wJ
doubted less be gradual , asf It must naturally
be accompanied by a cortespdding change
In the fittings , cut outs , wl ln \ ec. : , If ap-

Three or faurIin e t .I pklng'nais that
project about an.1nci'abda th ldewallc ( , In'
front of 131 Canal , .streeRturp1shell' % aTh.ise-
ment yesterday for hot l' runners , cabmen ,
bartenders and a wholo\.o\ of ther' ' people
says the Chicago Tlmc Herall.1 Under the
sidewalk Is an electrl& " light wIre whIch
charges the nails. When any pedestrian
struck his foot against the nails he would
receive a shock and go down In a heap.
Cabmen and hotel runners around the
arount
Union depot saw a man hurryIng to catch a
train yesterday morning. When he got In
front of where the nails projectEd be shrlelld
ant was sent sprawling Into the gutter. Ills
satchel wont one way and his hat another.
As he gathered hhmelf ' up be fa'd he had been
struck by lghtning , but as there had been
no flash : he was soon convinced that he was
mistaken. Whie this man was brushing the
mud of hIs clothes another man came along
and stubbed his toe against one of the nails.
He , too , was Sent sprawfni . The source of
the trouble was then found out , and for
hours the spot was watched by an amuse-
mont loving crowd Late In the afternoon
Officer Derrig eard I of the nails , and he reported -
ported the case to time fro department The
fun was soon stopped. -
A WISE nULE.
TIme wisdom of the rule of enjoInIng the
stoppage of electric cars on the nEar sIde
rather than on tIme farther side of the street
Is demonstrated by a correspondent , who
says that , having stopped before crossing timeline
line of rIght angle travel the car Is much
more likely to be under the thorough control
of the motorman than If It were driven across
thl Intersectng thoroughfare at full sp et.
Whie waiting for cars passengers have a
tendency to stand at tIme crossing , and as the
train rushes by them before coming to a stop
under the old method , many men , ant even
some women , are tempted to clamber aboard
and talc a scat \ tile the cars are still In
motion . There Is the same temptation for
passengers to alight In order to avoid being
carried too far Under the new plan Intend-
lug paslengers approach the C1S as they come
to a stop , walkIng toward them and not with
timem I Is said that time ncar-crossing stop
which has been conclusl'e1y : tested In Dalt-
more and other eastern cites , saves many
lives an1 [ accidental Injuries TIme managers
ot many lines say tmey will never go back to
the old mnetimod , and In some states there IB
talk of Inducing legislation to compel all
transportation lines to adopt the new system
A SICK BENEFIT
A novel idea tn telephone practice has
been put Into execution by a New England
company. A letter haD been sent to al
physicians In New Haven stating that In
many cases of sutden attacks of Illness a
telephone from the house of a patent to niB
resIdence of a Ilhysiclan would be of the
greatest yslue. To meet this need the corn-
pany announced that upon the request of a
person In the city Imlt [ ' , ndorsed by the
physician attendant , a tle'pitone t would be
placed In the house for h' rirlod of thirty
days for the sum of $5 , ' aM' If the family
wished then to contnu 'llhd service time
same rates would be mad fet -each : succeed-
log month. TIme plan jolmtises to be an
unqualified succors , as polltses semethlna

The calls on the doctor with b' more numer-
ous , and hy the time thl .patent . recovers
th9 telephone will probably have become so
indispensable that It will bellcpt on , to the
manIfest benefit of the cempa )
ELECTRIC SEALING.
The escape of gas has alwalil' ' been a source
of lose and deterioration In the. urlng of cham-
pagne , but heretofore no 'perr ct process of
alr.tght sealing was knowl Champagne
boles are now sealed elotrJCly , ant the
escape of gas Is mate Impoulble. The cork
and part of the neck are el\Ned with a thIn
layer of copper electrically 11epot'Hed , The
deposit may be gilt , silvered or given any
desired shade , In special baths , and the
process can be extended to the sealing of
boles for mineral waters , preserves , and a
variety of prOducts Time neck ef the bottle

as black lead , zee , or copper powder , and I
