Victor Jacobson, alias Peterson, nllas

with stealing n trtck purse containing $18
from James Cuthlll nt Hart's saloon, Six

Cuthlll entered the saloon, bought the

them displayed a purse of curious make
which caught tho eyo of Victor.
"That's a queer thing," ho said, Jerk
ing his thumb toward It.
"Yes," answered Cuthlll, "and I'll bet
you tho drinks you can't open It."
Tho man of tho aliases agreed to tho
wager, took tho purso and began fumbling
with It. For several minutes ho worked,
ostensibly to find the hidden spring, but lt

"Tho passage of this measure," says tho
Springfield Republican, "will assuredly
bring most nil the street llnej of Massnchu-
siitts Into a general express and freight car
rier business, in full competition with the
steam roads.
"The latter have complained of the com
petition of tho street roado In tho pnejen.
gcr traffic But that Is ncccsiarlly limited,
save only for short distances; nnd oven
between points no moro than ten mllea
opart tho steam roado have been able to
hold their own ory well, the competing
parallel street line appearing to create tho
tralllc which It enjoys. The street car Is and
must always be, so long as It runs In the
common public highway, too slow a con
veyance for a pafwngor tralllc extending
over any considerable distance.
"But what of street railway competition
In freight? That is qulto another matter.
That Is whero nil tho ndvnntagcs lie with

with the necessity of mnklng up long trains
of cars before lt can move tho freight oro
nomfcally nnd will not be weighted with tho
delays incident to local transpnrnlion b
train-load. It can lay down merchandise
by tho door of tho consignee, while tho
steam road cannot. And It can make a
much lower rate, for tho street road Is not
burdened by tho costs of the land over
which It" tracks nro laid,

It would appear that they -will be right
about It. They will leave nothing undone
to heat tho measure nnd its passage at

very doubtful Indeed. But what then? Can
they hopo finally to succeed? If a great
publlo benefit is Involved ought they to
succeed? Would their position differ from
that of tho laborers skilled In an employ
ment which has been cast aside In the march
of Improvement; or that of the small manu
facturer or merchant who has been thrown
down and ruined by the ability of the largo

to better advantage?
"Tho only difference would be that hero

tho very peoplo who have been most com
placontly emphatic In saying It is pitiful,
but for the good of tho larger number,

has had to bo Imported, mainly from aer-

good quality exists In the country. A now
Hchemo for smelting these ores by means
of tho electric furnaco has recently been
devised, and a concession has been obtained
for tho working of a bed of hematite ores In
tho Bernese Oberland near Melnlngen. An
aerial ropoway will transport the ore to tho
village of Innert Klrchen, below tho moun

water powers and this new outlet affords nn j
admirable opportunity to put them to tno

"Some strange things happen to elec
tricians," said a well-known electrical en
gineer recently. "Not long ago I was en
gaged In putting In a plant In n large build
ing, Isolated Irom electric power of all kinds,
Tho building was constructed mostly ot
Iron, and wo had It very nearly connected,
when the men In working around on tho Iron
parts would sen electric sparks and would
frequently get n rather severe shock The
Incxperlcntcd men could not understand tho
matter and tho others refused to believe It
possible that Ihero could bo nny charge on
tho Hue. When I arrived I was Informed
of the stnto of affairs nnd proceeded to mako
n thorough examination. I found that ono
of the drop cords to which lights nre nt
tnehed hung down to within nbout six Inehet
of a twelve-Inch belt nnd this belt geicratel
considerable electricity, which Jumped from
the belt to the drop cord, charging all tho
wires. Tho men In 'skinning' the lniulatljn
off n wiro and nt tho mine time coming In
contact with tho iron work of the building
would get n severo shock."
