Its Possiilitios, Prospects poses. 1 am often asked in regard to the prob- able progress of eloctricity in the future, what it 18 likely to do and what may bo done with it. One answor really com- prehends all, I believe that in time it will be the almost universal form in which energy or power will be used. All who are interested in electrical science have a certain stock of questions which are asked over and over again whenever an opportunity presents itself. I have made a small collection of those oftenest propounded, and will hero an- swer some of them. One asks, ““Will electricity be the uni- versal beast of burden of the future? Will it carry us and our parcels, hew our wood, draw our -water, cut our grain, cook our food, heat and light our houses as well as furnish the motive power for our mills and factories? This beneficent result will, I think, be attained when electrical science has reached the point whon electricity can be produced directly from the oxidaticn of combustibles in- stead of interpolating a boiler and steam engine in the proccss. Prof. Tice defines electricity as the soul of the universe, the vital element of all moving matter; and I am asked if I am of the same opinion. 1 beliove it is merely one form of motion, and the highest yet discovered. Hon. 8. 8. Coxis quoted as having said that in the future, perhaps, no other agent of locomotion, heat, light or power, will be resorted to. This opinion is well founded, and is shared by all who have givon studious thought to the possibilities of electrical science. As to the changes which will be affected by electricity within fifty years in the city of New York, I would say that I bo- lieve electricty will propel the cars of the street and elevated railroads, light the city within and without its buildings, furnish power for all its purposes, work hands are employed. The art of weaving was introduced into England 554 years ago. e — No Crystallization in Michigan Congressman Lacey in the Cloveland Loador. ‘‘What does Michigan think about pre- sidential candidates?” ““There is as yet no crystallization upon any one man. ~ All of the candidates are somewhat discussed. I suppose if he could be nominated, General Sherman would be very acceptable.” *‘How about Arthur?” “‘Mr. Arthur's administration is popu- lar in Michigan, and he has many friends. The advisability of his nomina- tion depends on New York, Ohio and Indiana.” *‘John Sherman?” ‘‘Senator Sherman lacks nagnetism, though otherwise he would be acceptable, Logan is very popular among the soldiers, and Blaine has still many friends in Mi- ehigan.” e The New York Dy Speaking of the explosion in the Vic- toria railway station, London, John J. Breslin, one of the trustees of the ukirm- ing fund, said to a New York Herald re- porter: ‘I see no reason as yet to be- lieve that Irishmen had anything to do with it, but if they had T have no hesita- tion in condemning their action. Iama believer in dynamite. If an arsenal, or & ship of war, oraroyal dock-yard, ora battalion of troops can be blown up, I say well and good. That is legitimate. These are quarters in which it is right to attack England but to blow up a railway station —a place designed for the use of all man- kind, I may say-—and to take or to en- danger the lives of civilians people, who are simply minding their own_ private business—that is simply murderous and infamous, and notning too severo can be said in condemnation of it There seem to be other people in Eng- land capable of using dymanite beeides Irish revolutionists, There is a socialis- tic element in London that scems quite capable of resorting to the use of dyna- mite. “‘Yes, I think it was some Irishmen's work, 1 think it was done in pursuance of the system,” said O'Donovan Rossa. ““We have been vory quiet of late, but I think the work will 5o on faster than over in a littlo while, There is a new agency at work vow raising money, and more work will therefore be puulibf’u. All we undertake to do on this side of the ocean is to aid the men at home, We send them money.

'We aro learning. siapler and better ways of making the explusive stuff all the time, and they have men ready and willing to carry out the plans amony themselves. Thug, you see, we know very little of what is going on. We send the means and await the results.” “‘But would the blowing up of a rail way station be within the scope of your lans (" “*Yes. Our arm is to convince the com- mercial classes of England that it is cheaper to give up than to hold Ireland. Therefcre any means by which we can attack the wealth of the country comes within our lines, This explosion took place at night, Well, there is no desire to slaughter people needlessly, and so I can understand that night would be selocted for an attack on a great commer- cial center like the Viotoria station, in order that as few people might be hurt as possible,” ‘Do you still find support in this coun- try for dynamite projects” onne! re is & t ory Ao¢ vengeance—justice ls::l? itpiplnd the dy- n mite rolicy has more supporters than ever before, The new agency spoken of by O'Dono- van Rossa for the raising of funds for dynamite purposes is a certain Irish- America newspaper, which was noted not long ago for’its strenuous advocacy of ey PHINE HABIT 0PIy A NANE, A, D) 169 Vaiton b, N 4 KANK, of the ee a Hemedy V. iMOR , el Michael Davitt’s maxim: *‘Land for the landless people—land without striking & blow.” Early in January this paper l-umd an “‘emergency fund,” In the appeal for contributions for this fund it telephones and burglar alarms, deliver the opera, convey parcels, detect and sig- nal fires, operate fire engines and possi- bly displace animal locomotion for ve- hicles. “The expression, ‘storing electricity’ is in common use,” say one, *‘Is such a thing possible?” In point of fact it 1s done every day, although as yet not _eco- nomically enough to warrant its intro- duction as a commercial undertsking. Another wants to know if the sun is not the indirect source of all the electric- ity in the world, or even in the universe! The run, of course, is the source of all energy in our comparatively small plane. tary system. This energy takes various forms, one of which we call electricity. The uestion T am oftenest asked is, “‘Can electric appliances for light, heat and power ever be sufficiently chespened to become available to the poor?” This stage of electrical development has al- ready been reached in light and power. Electricity will prove itsclf a boon to the poor by breaking up aggregated indus- wries. This, I believe, will be its great- est mission. It wiil subdivide power so that each operator can have his own, at a trifling cost, to do what he plenses with. My belief is that in fifty years, or pos- sibly sooner, we shall reach the electrical milennium—the day when electricity will do its perfect work, and be the general sorvitor of the people. The perfoction of electrical science will, I think, have even a greater effect upon the industries, consequently upon the general condition of the people, than the introduction of steam, As electricity is a mere infant, it is fre- quently asserted that its full growth will revolutionize almost all the practical in- terests of the world, Already, through the telograph and telephone, it is revolu- tionizing all commercial methods, and will continue to do so at a much greater axtent as it is utilized and developed in other directicns, “Will electricity ever be the motor which propels ships?” Yes, if it can be pulled out an old tin watch, with a gate- hinge case on it, and looked into ita dirty face in a tender, loving way Tho boys gave him the laugh, and covered his pile, and then they all stood and watched the ball with their time picces in their hands.

Solong” And he skipped around the corner bofore the boys recovered from their astonishment. — WHAT HOT BAKE ) BEANS DID, » Lanughable Tncidents Caused by A Fow Boys and a Sted. From Peck’s Sun, Probably as laughablo a thing as has been soen in a long timo took place at Janesville at the Grand Army reunion a few wooks ago. Thero was to bo a baked bean banquet for the visiting veterans, and half the families in town furnished a pan of baked beans for the occasion,send- ing them to the armory late in the after- noon piping hot. A couplo of boys, sons of a scldier, were intrusted with a largo pan of red hot baked beans to take down town, and they put the pan on a hand-sled and started. Arriving at the top of the big hill, where the road runs straight down into tho business streot, the temptation to ride down was toe great, and the boys got on the sled with a pan of beans in front of them, steam- ing hot. They started. Kvery crossing they struck a gob of beans weuld fly out, and before they were half down the hill the boys were covered with beans from head to foot. They shut their doosn't drop in ten minutes,” and he NO STAIRS TO CLIMB, = e, THE CHEAPEST PLACE 1IN OMAHA TO BUY Foll=Retef=To=Ref Is AT DEWEY & STONE'S, One of the Best and largest Stocks in the United States to select from.

The sled finally turned _over, and boys, boans and slod rolled and slid for half a block, and tho street was paved with good in- tentions and baked beans. The boys got up, seraped the beaus off their clothes, thought the matter over for a minute, whort cach took hold of a sido of the empty pan and they carried it down to the armory and reported to thecommittee on beans.~ The circumstance was related to tho soldiers, and the empty pan, the hand-sled and the boys decorated with beans created as much amusement for the old veterans as any ono thing. — Newspaper Copyright. Ciicaco, March 4.—The Daily News, editorially, says: An effort has been made to make the public at large believe that congress will pass no law of newspaper copyright. Doubtless those interested in producing such an improession wiil pro- ceed on the principlo that all is fair in war, even misrepresentation. Primarily the design of the measure is to put an end to a sort of theft that has hitherto gone unpunished because a daily news- papor is the only commercial enterprise in the United States to steal from which is not a crime. To illustrate thi point with perfect clearnoss let it be supposed that & merchant imports goods from Eu- rope at great cost and that they are stolen from him, the consequences to the thief being, in the event of detec- tion, conviction and imprisonment for his crime. 1 a typo founder casts a new and original style of type he protects it under the laws relating to patents, and no man may imitate it without becoming lisble to serious penalty. Tho purpose of the merchant and inventor is the same. Each goes to the preliminary expense of his venture that he may sell what he has imported or invented at a price that will yielda profit. The proprietor of a news- paper who imports, so to speak, a valu- able and interesting piece of nows from abroad or from another place within the union, or devotes his own t'me and talents to the preparation, that is the invention, of a readable and often important matter, is absolutely at the mercy of any one unscrapulous enough to steal either. There may be in this case an outlay of money larger than that incurred by the prodused by direct oxidation of combus- tible material, 1 peliey , that electricity will do zreater wonders in transmitting and pre- serving sound than it has done. The electrical ora is not all in the future, It has aiready begun. Probably fifty thous- and persons throughout the world are engaged with the applications of elec- tricity, When it has reached its full develop- ment electricity will not only lighten labor, it will enhance the safety of trav- elers and producers, “Will it ever be as useful to the farm- or as to the manufacturer?’ some one asks, I think not—at least, not soon— though it may be. A woman wants to know if it will ever lighten the labor of the household as well as the factory, a question I am happy to answer in the sffirmative. Tuomas A, Episox. L — Gambling on Time, Moruing Journal, A lot of merchant travelers in New York were watching the time-lall about noon one Cay with their watches in their hands, betting as to when it would drop. “I've got a watch that never fails me,” said one, ‘‘and I've a dollar that says it will drop in four minutes and a half.” ‘Done!" says another; ‘‘my watoh says six minutes, and here's my dollar on ours.” “Both of {uu are off," chinned in another, 've got the regulator, and she says the ball goes down in five min- utes,” *‘I've got & watch and two dollars which says she will go down in three minutes and a half,” put in a nice little Broadway fellow. *‘Here's fiver that says she will go down in three minutes,” sang out a Olaflin traveler in a high collar. Ah, gentlomen,” interrupted a new man, joining the gang, “‘betting on the ball, eht Well, I don't bet usually, but T'vegot $60 in my missionary pocket that | was going to pay my pew rent |with, but if I hear no objections I'll put it up agamst a like awount that she merchant or inventor, He goes to that outlay for the same reason they do, but he is outside the law and whoily unpro- tected from any one who may chooso to appropriate the fruit of his brains or the nows he has purchased. Much has been said about the opposition of country pa- pers, There is 1o little misapprehonsion of this branch of the subject. Few of the provinctal publications, the weeklies, semi-weeklies and tri-weeklies that are largely made up of what are known at ‘‘patent insides,” will be affectod at all by the proposed law, the object of which'is to patent the contents of a newspaper for just so long only, say 24 hours, as will prevent them from being stolen and used in competition with @ journal paying for them. The “‘country papers’ therefore need not be afraid. There is & class of provincial papers, a certain kind of ocal daily, that will find the operation of the law very inconvenient, Indeed, it is against them that its framers aim, and a species of evanescent little city sheet that steals it news and dis- patches from early issues of the morning papers, These two classes howl against what will check their dishonesty. | —— ‘The Dirt-Burning Locomotives. General Manager Wootten, of the Phil- adelphia and Reading railroad company, in his report for 1883 says that the num- ber of engines burning coal dust is 171, These consumed during the year 180,106 tons of dust, and Manager Wootten estimates the saving on this account at £378,0(0. Eighty-three per cent of the main line coal tonnage was muveq by them, at » cost for fuel per train mile of 2 3.10 cents, against 12 4-10cents for those using ordinary prepared anthracite. 1t required 88 pounds of fuel to haul 100 tons one mile against 94 pounds in 1882, Mr. Wootten says that continued experi- ence with the dust-burning locomotives proves the reduced cost of maintaining them. The temperature of the furnace is lower, and therefore the wear on the fire sheets is dim ed. He mentions 1 one engine of this class, No. 408, which has been in service for seven years, and has run 183,904 miles, yet there is no apparent deteri spation in the fire sheets, Oatalogues furnished } au Avplioation.{ ) Street, Omaha, on E.
