Tela jTfcm.)-A fort exists tn the surrounding Ither as far In advance of electricity as IArtriey Is of steam. This Is the belief f Thomas A. Edison, and Mr. Edison I sfter It. In an Interview the famous ln "rentor aald: '1 cannot guess what thla power will St. It will be discovered, but, Ha discov y will be ao accident. There are any Number f andulatlona of-ether right her fti this rwmrfcut what they are we don't now. - . "And so there Is yet to be a discovery In Hie domain of motion In the ether, some thing that we shall he able to carry on vires to great distances, and that per- gaps, will afford us power, but I cannot guess what It will be." In the meantime, while this hypothetical force remains undiscovered, what may we sxpect electricity to accomplish In the im mediate future? "Lots of things, It Is the power of to day and nearly everything which requires motion will soon be In the form of elec tricity. It will' entirely displace gasoline In automobiles. In vehicular transporta tion In the cities It will bring about a complete- revolution. There will be a vast Improvement lit tha telephone, especially as to volume of sound and clearness of articulation. To Better 'J'elepkoaes. 'Today you cannot sen4 over tha tele phone a mesage which contains, aay, a lot of Hungarian namea. The articulation ought to be better than on the phono graph, and It must be made. I believe the telephones will eventually displace tha - telegraph on railroads. "Another big advance In the electrical field will most likely be along in the line Of high eflciency of the wind motor, which will produce power for Isolated commun ities, and there is also hope for the sun motor In the arid regions. "The motor solved the aeroplane prob lem,' but tlie problem of making the aero plane safe and commercial1 la another mat ter, and this will 'be solved by chance In the aeroplane. "Progress In electricity will continue dur ing the next twenty-five years. The de mand for everything is unlimited. The more light you have, the more light you want And in its possibilities electricity seems unlike almost anything else un limited." A Question was put to Mr. Edison as to the possibility of the use of electricity In warfare, with the suggestion that a Euro pean is said to have completed an invention for projecting a ray that will kill within a radius of many miles, but the Inventor was not apparently inclined to discuss that phase of it "The war matter will be settled by all the governments going broke equipping tor It," he declared. "There will be popular up risings one of these days against this milt tary business." Recently Edison took a trip through the western country, where he was deeply in terested in the irrigation systems which he saw, but he is seemingly disgusted with what seems to ,hii -sv waste of effort in that line. - v ta't Understand Title. "I don't understand why they go to the trouble and expense of digging those long costly ditches when they could make their water power manufacture electricity' right up In the hills and then take it down on slender wires to the land to be Irrigated, he said. . "The system of digging ditches Is the nruie way. 1 non i believe in exercise aside from that entailed by a man's or woman's occupatlotn. Considering the human body ;'. as a dynamo, it takes In enough fuel to .-' supply its needs In the ordinary discharge ,f its occupations. '-,- "People don't know", how to feed the auman dynamo; they are killing themselves - by overeating. They eat because It gives Vthern pleasure. Considering' the human body in the light of a dynamo again; If they , were to eat just enough to feed It properly and keep It going right, they would be beter off. "I don't believe there Is any such thing as brain food. I eat everything. I don't re strict my diet, except In point of quantity. I eat very littie-four to five ounces to a , meal and I eat any time I feel hungry. J go to my meals regularly, but If I don't feel hungry I leave the table without eat ing. I sleep six hours and sleep at any time and any place I could sleep In a boiler factory if I were sleepy." "What will you go into next, Mr. Edl ; sonT" he was asked. ' "Ah," he said slowly.

FATHER WINS Sl'IT-FOR CHILD II. W. Bardlck of Caster toaaty Gets Jada-ment After Loaa- Trial. BROKEN BOW, Neb., Jute 5. (Special.)

NUMBER REGARDED A LUCKY ONE Wedding Does Met Occur for Home Days, nt the Uroom Wants sjtidfc He Ready When JtetU Sand Called. NEW YORK, June 5. (Special Telegism.) Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., and his fiancee, Miss Eleanor Butler Alexander yesterday secured a marriage license to wed and to night Mr. Roosevelt gave a bachelor din ner for twenty" of his cronies at Delmon- Ico's. It was a gay affair and young Roosevelt was toasted and acclaimed and congratulated on all sides. He said he was the happiest young man In the United States. While the marriage will not take place until June 20, practically all the arrange ments have already been made for It Mr. Roosevelt said this afternoon he didn't care a rap for the publicity which attended his private affairs, .although he was trying to spare the feelings of Miss Alexander, who did not like It "I'm getting used to seeing the Roosevelt name in the newspapers," "said the son of Colonel Roosevelt with a smile. Speaking seriously, the young man de clared he believed it the duty of every man to marry, no matter whether his father had urged such a course or not. i "I think about those things about the same way that father does," said Theo dore, Jr. "Every young man ought to marry. It will make him more stable and a better cltlsen. The responsibilities of citizenship and those that attend the state of being a husband and perhaps a father, ought to go hand In hand. Of course I do not be lieve in indiscriminate marriage. I like the old fashioned Ideals the best. "I know Just what father's counsel will be after he arrives home. In his letters to me he haa congratulated me and told me he believed I had chosen a wise course in life. He knows Miss Alexander and knows she Is a mighty fine girl. My mother knows her, too. "I know I shall be the most contented husband alive. Why, I am Just so happy r.ow I don't know what to do," and here the scion of the house of Roosevelt cast about for a fitting simile to show just how Joyous he really Is. Continuing, he said that while he is only 22 years old, he did cot believe for a minute that 22 yearsMs too young for marriage "A chap of 22 Is aged several years by the responsibilities of being a husband," he added, "I don't mean that he loses any of the Joys of life in this aging process, for the views of married men are more tolerant and sane than those of a bachelor. The bachelor is not to bo condemned so much as he is to be pitied. He is getting only half of the happiness In life. "I used to think I would lead a happy, careful life absolutely devoid of the responsibilities of domesticity, but that's when I was younger than I am now." Toung Mr, Roosevelt wore a natty grey sack suit when he visited the marriage license bureau this afternoon and toyed with a rattan cane. He was accompanied by Miss Alexander. Chief Scully of the marriage bureau knew of their coming In advance, and had everything ready for them. Fred A. Collins, private secretary to Collector. .L.oeb of. the port!, pt, -New, Tork acted as the guide ..of the .couple, ' I'm .afraid I' could -never have dodged the. reporters, alone," said Mr. Roosevelt as Mr. Cplllns led him through the. portals of the bureau. Mr. ' Roosevelt described -himself as single, -aged 22,. a resident of Oyster Hay and a manufacturer." According to the license he Is the son of Theodore Roosevelt ard Edith Carew Roosevelt. Miss Alexander was smartly attired. She wrote her name and gave her address as, 42 West Forty-seventh street. She Is one year younger than Mr. Roosevelt The number of the license Is 13,727, which, among policy players, is known as "The happy gig." It Is supposed to be a very lucky set of numbers. Evans Says Bryan Signers Are Many ! Representative from Hamilton County Reports that Democrats Are ' Taking to the Plan. (From a Staff Correspondent.)- : LINCOLN, June i. (Special.) Repre sentative Evans of Hamilton , county, here to attend the populist state committee meeting, is feeling very good-over the re ception accorded his Bryan petitions. ' "So far, only two democrats have failed to sign the petitions," said Mr. Evans. "One of these said he did not believe Mr. Brian should mix in state polltlcss. We are now circulating the petitions In about eight counties that I know of and possibly in many more, as 1 have written to all my Intimate friends in the legislature fcnd asked them to send them on to their friends, so they are probably all over the state. "I favor Bryan because I believe he can do more good for the state than any other and not because our people have it In for Mr. Hitchcock, I would like to see Ituoto- velt elected In New York; I favor La Follette In Wisconsin and ' - Cummins in Iowa. They are the class of men I favor and to get men of that' class I think the democrats should .nominate Bryan. I -have no idea how many signers we have. Just as soon as a petition is filled out It Is sent to Bryan. It Is gddreesed to W..J. Bryan Lincoln, and I suppose his secretary lakes charge of them and will turn tueru over to him. The petitions are to Mr. Bryan-aad urge him to conseut to be a candidate. I do not see how he can refuse in the face of the petitions which will be signed by thousands." Mr. Evans Is in favor of the extra ses sion, but he expressed a doubt as to the advisability of putting county option in the democratic platform. He is for county option, but thinks It better to settle the matter in the various districts. ALDKRSON TO FILK FOR (U.MURtlSS Irsred by His Friends, Madison Man May t'onaent to t se of His Aame.

Throughout other lines of insurance, sucn ss fire, bonding, hall, accident, eto., there Is a posXHjillty of companies emerging from critical, conditions In the way of un expected happenings, by not having losses, but they are rot positive propositions, while in life Insurance the basis and foun dation is the' death of man. and the death of man Is not a guess and something that might not happen, but a certainty, and when positive promises are made, that pro vision In keeping with the time of a man's life willj have . to be made to perpetuate these organisations.' ; He said he is cer tainly In sympathy with irateinai uiiur ance end he- believes, the responxibiltty of making those organisations permanent rests uuon the membership and the otn cers. and .sliiiuld .noCbe met. by coercive lea-iHlatian.

He believes that some woman had called in to vlstt his wife, and thata storm irjad come up and that she; was stand ing close to the window looking out when 'the flash of lightning stamped her Image on the pane.
