I¥ TH ELECTRICAL FIELD, The Distribution of Timo—Stoppéd at the Gate. ELECTRICAL OSCULATION Accident Preventer—Pubiic - Fxecu. tions—Lighthing Strokes—The Fluld at Washington— Blectronl Breyitics. Elécteleal Worl Miny attempts have been mnde ih past years to solve the problem of causing the pendulums of different clocks to vibrate in unison with each other by means of an elec- trical current periodically transmitted from a station, but hitherto inventors have not not sncceeded in obtaining per- fect synchroniem. In a paper recently fead before the Paris Academie des Bciences, M. Cornu has returned to the subjectand shown analytically that to obtain synchrohism in a vibrating sys- fem, the necessary and sufficient condi- fion s that the frée motion of the éys- fom shall be a @amped vibration, and s 4150 pointed out thit ¢He stible con- dition 8 obtathed horo rapidly the greater the améunt of the damping. To carry this out in practice, it s necessary, if two pondulums dare to vibrate synchronously, that they should €xperience dn impulse in oneé direction and a retardation in the opposite sente In rigorously the same way. This M. Corfiu 6btains by fixing & perméanent magnet to the lower extremity of the pendulum, the magnet axis being per- pindiculaa to the axis of the pendulum. An electro maget with an open clrcuit 15 fixed on one #ide of thée pendulum and attracts it 4t each oscillation. On the other side 18 placed andther electro- magnet, with a closed 6ircuit, which acts simply as a damper and checks the swing. In this way perfect synchroism can be obtained between clocks a very considerable distance _dpart, which, in- deed, is onlylimited by the length of the line at which the retardation of the current from self-induction becomes set- gible. Clocks constructed o this prin- ciple for the geographical department of the French war office have begn sut- cessfully synchronized over a distan¢e of fordy miles of & deféctive telegraph line. Stopped &t the Gate. . New York Sun: A tall, slim man, with 4 high silk hat punml Fakishly over one ear, bustled hurriedly into the office of the Edison Electric Light com: pany at 16 Broad strest tho other after- noon. He was sailing before a full busi- fiesn breeze #nd hadn’t 4 moment to n'gfire. Nobody was in sight. A formd- able iron railing with oconspicuous te barred the way to a Fnir oén 26 doors through which crept the Yuzz and hum of business. The man hook the iron fi‘"“ but it was séourely ocked. Then he fumbled at the catch, and although the internal arrangement of this piece of mechanism was in full #ight there seemed to_be no way of re- lensing the gate, He pushéd it and pulled it and lifted it, but it olung tenn- cjously to its fastening and would not ield. The man swore a little and per- ®pired a grent denl. SBuddenly Rhe d::ihcd out and clattered down the iron stairs. A youth strolled out of the inner of- fice aind, calmly turning his back upon the réporter, pressed alittle knob in the wall, The gate swung open and the re- rber was invited to enter. 1t was all aflmplo. The lock of thé gate was under the influence of an electric cur- rent, A person who knew the secret vould Ealn admittance by pressing the toe of his boot on a little lever near the floor.

New York Sun: An application of the electricity that is latent in the at- mospheré o extensively this bracing woather has boen discovéered by ‘the giris up town, where the air is clearsr 1and the electricity more plentiful than {1 the lower parts of the ecity, FElec- | $ricity is 80 abundantin theair ug in jthe high parts of the city just now that & person walking over .velvet carpets, L especially if in slippered feet, becomes 80 uhm‘fid with it that on approaching auy metal nspark will leap from his \finger tips with a distinct crackle, and Jand there are some who declare that they have lighted the gas by this erns. There is the same spark and lorackle if the finger is held toward the iface of another person instead of toward Imetal, and the discharge of the elec- gricity is accompanied by a shock severe jenough to be painful to both persons. Bome flngonloug,xlrl carried her inves- tigations into the marvelous Fmperties of this mystérious fluid still further, and discovered that the shock could as readily be conveyed by the lips as by \Hh_n finger tips.” Hence the electric 89, It is given by approaching the unsus- ing victim, shufing the slippered faet eoftly ever the carpet, and bending he head well forward so that the lips shall be the part of the person further- est advanced. Just as the lips have al- mokt touched the face of the victim there is a crackle and a sudden and stimulating shock which those who have tried it describe as very pleasant. If the room be darkened the spark can be distinctly seen by a third person. It s said, however, that the experiment is usually more successful when the third person is somewhere else. Another freak of the atmospheric electricity is av the ticket boxes of the elevated railroads, where the tickets, instead of dropping from the gloved hand, will cling to it, and can scarcely be shaken off, while after getting into the box they stick to the sides, and have to be pughed down with wire rods that the gatemen have securved tor that purpose. This, however, s nnth(ng compared with the regular state of thingsout in Minnesota and other r}nru of the north- west. At St. Paul a New York printing tnu manufacturer, just back from set- ing up some mammoth machines there, said it was impossible to make them Work satisfactorily on mt of the per sticking to the rolls on its way hrough and tearing. Finally some- lm‘i &ought of connécting the presses wit! 0 ground wires, and the trouble, When this was done, was ended. All that had been the matter was that the electricity in the presses made the paper oling until the wires were putin and carried it off into the ground. Hlectric Accident Preventer. 8t, James Gazette: - A most wonder- fol invention is reportéd in Vienna. t- Awstrian engineer has, it is said, esigned a truck to run before every railway train, being maintained always atafixed (but annuble) Aistance in front b" the force of an electric current transmitted along the vails from a [ n‘umo on tzu engine, The eur:o{no(; ucted, through meycury contain in giass tubes on the pilot-truck. 1If, amm,fl\s truck comes into cgmm‘. @ tubes are 'broken & o consequeatly destroyed. iater- ruption of the ‘current instantly and autonntically applies.the Brakes on the following train. . It {s claimed hy the inventor that two. expresses fitted with this system might with impunity pe set to run full tiig at each 6ther. - The col- lision of their pilot trucks would arrest the progress of both trains before they could meet. The element of human fallibility is accordingly entirely elimi- nated, and drivers may dash through a whole series of danger. signals without risk, being automatically arrested the moment they reach the spot that is really dangerous. Lightning Strokes. Engineering: Now,as a charge of electricity has the Yropcrty of inducing another charge of electricity of an oppo- site kind to itself on any “‘conducting” matter near it, and as the carth is com- posed of what is called conducflufi mafter, it follows that a chnrfiod clou suiling over, the surface of the earth induces _an_opposite chirge on the groun@ below. These two opposite charged, one of *‘positive,” the T of “negative” eléctricity, tend, by another well krown property of electricity, to rash toward each other and eombine. Hence tvhen they are able to discover the resistance of the air between,which keeps them apart, they leap together ith a flash and crack, producing the miliar phenomena of thunder and thlnin(. 3 Sometimes dnother cloud floating negr the first one tnkei the place of the earth, and then the lightning flash fakés Emce betwéen them. Lighthing of this ind does fiot gtrike the earth; but it might Hate 4 déstructive effect on the latfer for all that, because it Mmight give rlse to the ‘‘back ktroké,” which is dometimiés fatal to life. Tho “‘bick stroke” is hot due to the direct flash and discharge. It is rather the reat- tion after the direct chdrgé has taken place elsewhere. Suppose, for example, that a track of upland country, a rural district with trees, farms, and here and there a church dot- tinf it, is covered by a thunder cloud, which induces & charge. of electricity upon it. In order that the chgrge upon the earth may get néarer to that upon the cloud, 86 as fo combine Wwith if, the électricity, by dnother well-knéwn roperty, will heap itself on the most fh‘ inent and pointéd objects of the andscape. That i8 to doy, {t will accu- mulate on the trees, baris, chiney to&u and apires of the district. 'he whole atmosphere of the region is in a state of tension and suspense. The bolt is trembling in the balance, but no man knows where it will fall. Presently there is a blinding flash of light, the sky fs rent with alurid stream of fire, and tnstantly the ténsion fs re- lieved. The discharge has taken place at one point, the point which offers the path of least resistance through the air. and at which the electrical tension was most critical. At every other place where the electricity had seriously ac- cumutated, there is conue?uanfly a sud- den fall of electric potential, or & col- ln‘)sa 10 its old condition, or. und it is oalled, & ‘‘return stroke.” This instan- taneous change is sometimes as fatal as the direct discharge, and #t may ruin a building or destroy life several miles from the scené of the flash. The return stroke is therefore more mysterious and unexpected than the flash, but fatal effects are comparatively rave from it. Nevertheless,since the latter have been attributed to this cause a peérson cannot feel quite safe.although a thunder storm with lightning is still several milés from him; the number of miles being estim- ated b{ counting the seconds which elapse between the flash and the peal, and allowing a distance of four miles for every second counted. He may feel gafer than if it were close upon him, but there is room for fear. In fact there 18 no real safety except within the area properly protected by a lightning conductor, or in & building which is itself a protector for instance a sheet fron house, Every building thon should boe protected in order to be safe. In the country where these are often isolated, a lightning rod would be re- quirad fos each, but in towns one rod would sometimes protect more than one hoube around it, according to its heighy and conductivity. The flash takos place atthe pointof least resistance, because it is here that the two opposite electricities can casiest rush together. But tho engeruess with which they tend to rush rether is another thing to be considered. These two things taken together “determine the @ischarge. There m;ibo less re- sistance to the flash at one house or tree than to another, but if the attraction between the opposite electricities is less at the former, the flash may traverse the latter house. Hence one cannot ox- actly say if one tree or building Wwill be safer than another. There is great un- certainty, and this is a reason for the instinct of awe and uneasiness which most animals feel on the approach of a thunder storm. «In general, however, we can say that high houses, or those perched on” high ground, are more likely to suffer from .the discharge than small low lyin housss. The former are therefore ail the more eligible for protection; and they are to bo avoided in segking shel- ter from a storm. So are houses sur- rounded by trecs, and with nds or pools of water close beside them. For trees act s imperfect light- nhaa rods have a good earth connection, and especially if they are wet the dis- charge may strike the ground through them, or, in the case of the pond, through the water. One should not shelter under trees of any kind, but more eaPccially tall, soft trees, like pop- lars. Many deaths have been incurred from sheltering under poplar trees in France. Thunder storms are said to be more frequent in open treeless countries, such as the Transvaal or the Scottish hills, and the fact has been attributed to the unchecked ascent of electrical vayors; but on the other hand they are prob- ably less destructive in such countries, Chimneys, by oreating ourrvents of warm smoke and by their lining of con- ducting soot, are dangerous parts of houses, and there are many instances of the discharge taking that road. It were better, then, to avoid sitting near afirein a storm. Indeed, the safest place in the house on such an occasion would seem t0 be in the ccllar and base- ment rooms or u| In the open ir place than & dry hole orditeh, for it places the body below the surface of the ground, and therefore neét exposed to a inent place. But it should bea ry hollow, else the water in it may in- vite the discharge; for water, bein| conductor in good connection with t! earth, lowers the resistance to the dis charge. Electric Light in Private Houses, Electrical Roview: The ball room of Mr. Ogden Mills’ residence, Sixty-ninth street and Fifth avenue, was li&ud by means of storage batterics on Monday night, the 16th ult. The occasion wasa ball and house warming, and a large as- semblago of the I ng members of New York society was present. The ball room was brilliantly illuminated by sixty sixteen-candle power lamps, the olc_c\r;cn{ being supplied from the bat- teries which had been charged on the previous Friday at the . faetory in New- ork, carted Saturday, placed in position in the cellar and connectod with 1 Monday, and used from 6 Mr. Milla’ residence on ' amps an P m. until 8:30 8, m, the lol'lnwins dnz wnho\*z (3 single lnmrmgu«m of any kin: he effect of the lights was very beautiful, and many expressions of admiration were heard on all sides, Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt ordered suf- ficient #torage batteries to. illuminate his Filth avenue mansion on the occa- | sion of his grand ball, given on the 23p inst. .

Electricity in the Capitol. Washington Correspondence Pittsburg Press: Many of the members of the housc afflicted with rheumatism go down to the engine room of the house and hitve ““Pap” Talcott, the eloctrician.give them a dose of electricity from his dyn amo.

The cléctrical arrangerients for tho capitor are more eliborate than is get- erally supposed. The 1,500 five-feet gas burngrs Ev which the house is lighted, and the hundvred or more {eu in the ro- tunda, are dll {gnited by electricity.

There is also upon the wall a thermostat which exhibits the exact temperature existing in tne house, and ehables the chief engineer to regulate his air-heating apparatus accordingly. It is aimed to keep the temperature of the house at a uniform point of from 69° to 70°. A very good 1llustration was given your correspondent of the difference in temperature of air in otion and that atrest. Inone of the halls through which the air passes to the fan by which it was sent above the atmosphere was quite close and warm, it being 756°, as registered by a thermometer. Going near the fan when the air was agitated and a violent draught created, it was cold as Greenland, so_to speak, and the reporter, drawing his overcoat close about him,looked at another thermome- ter, expecting to see it register about 20°. @ was surprised, however, to find the same figures on that, viz., 75=.

By Wallace P. Reed in Atlanta Conatitution, It was madness and folly!” And as Julian Blair gave utterance to this ex- olamation he brought his hand down upon his desk with tromendous force. The'voung man in his exc:tement rose !rnolm his chair and paced the floor ofgthe oflice. “I made a fool of myself,” he said bit- terly. ‘“Here I am, n young lawyer, without practice in = little country town, and-with no hope of betteriug my condition. Instead of waiting patiently for something to turn up I have had the audacity to fall in love with the wealthi- st heiress in the place, and to-night I forever disgraced myuei( by asking her tomarry mo.

Well, I haveabout 850 in my ket and I owe The old gentle- man will regard me as a fortune hunter and request me to discontinue my vtsits. Yet the Lord Khows Ilove Alice, and I would devote my life to her.” Blair looked®around the office and took a survey of his scanty possessions. A few articles of furniture, and perhaps a few hundred law books—this was all. “It will be useless,” he said, ‘‘to tell a man like Mr.Howard that I will wait for his daughter. He will simply show me the door, and all will be over.” The yonnq fellow’s frank and manly face wor¢ a look of pained embarrass- ment. He had taken a leapin the dark and was already regretting his hasty action. The town olock struck the hour of midnight, and Blair retired to hischam- ber adjoining his office, and made an eflort to sleep off his trouble. For some time he was wide awake. His eyes burned and his brain was in a whirl, At last he fell intoa feverish and disturbed slumeer, > In the course of the night a strange thing occurred. Just how it happened he did not clearly understand, but he had a late visitor, who introduced him- self as a lawyer from London. The stranger mado profuse apologies for his untimely visit. “Mr. Blair,” he smd, “I will not_de- tain you with any preliminaries. You are the heir to the estate of John Blair, one of your uncles who ran away from home when a mere boy, and settled in Liverpool. Your uncle was remarkably lucky. He found friends, went into business, and in the course ot time made a fortune. He died a month agoand left you half a million dollars.” Julian proceeded to ask for farther information, but the London lawyer pleasantly remarked that good news mould keep, “I must leave in half an hour for New York,” he said, ‘‘but you may ex- pect me back in a week or 8o, and then the necessary arrangements will be completed for placln’ you in possession of your inheritance. ith this the strange visitor van- ished, aud Julian Blair,as be raised himself on his elbow and 1ooked about the room, asked himself whether he was awake or dreaming, A sudden drowsiness overcame him, and when he again opened his eyes it ‘was morning. “Was_it a dream?”’he eoried, as he dressed himself. *‘No, it i8 impossible. There is the ehair the man sat in, remember -his features distinctly, tin every word he sa1d, and even the tones of his voice. Thank God! It was no vision; it was a reality.” Julian found, after making his toilet, that he was still a little feverish, with o strange fullness in his head, but a a glance at the window showed ihat he was looking unusually well, . Ond thing startled him not a little in the course of the morning. ‘After a briel interview with one of the bankers None Genweine Withow? QurSignature.

A sudden doubt dtfuck him as he reached the sidewalk,, Had he made a mistake in telling. the bankerof his good fortune? If the whole thing was only a dream as he sometimes sus- pected he had done & very bad thing. “Pghaw!” he said to himself, ‘I am sick and mervous. How can it be a dream?” By def his confidence was re- stored, and later in the day when he saw Mr. Howard his manner was well calculated to impress the millionaire. He told the story of his legacy, and the rich man took him by the hand and told him that no man in the wide world would suit him better as a son-in-law. A week ed away delightfully. Blair found himself the lion of the town, but he spent most of his leisure time with his afianced. ‘One morning the young. lawyer arose, oool and clear-headed, without a trace of fever. He looked back upon the ‘events of the past week in amazement. He no lopger had any belief in the visit of the man. from don. It was '» dream, and nothing else. “l am in & disfmceful fix!” he groaned. “‘I have lied to Mr. Howard and to Alice. Ihave borrowed money under false pretenses. Nothing will ever convince people that 1 am nota swindler.” As the days rolled on Julian grew thin and pale, He could not bring himself to the point of a confession to Mr. Howard and Alice, Then, too, some of his obligations were coming due. There was apparently no way out of his trouble. The thought of suicide ook possession of his mind, and he be- gun u: nerve’h'umwl.( for t}:e deud'- The card in Julian’s hand bore the address of Henry Merley, solicitor, Mid-. dle Temple, London, and as the owner of the card was ushered into the office the yong lawyer looked at him in blank surprise. It did not take leng for Mr. Morley to state his business. My youug friend,” he said rather pompously, “it is a geruine vleasure to me 1o be the bearer of good tidings.. T ] have ‘heen two weeks ‘this country looking you up, Your uncle, John Blair, died recently in Liverpool, where he left a lange estate, and there is a cool half million for you.” {8 it another dream?” whispered Ju- an, “T don’t understand?” said the R"T lishman, somewhat mystified. “This is no dream; it is business.” Then he went on in his matter-of-fact way to make everything clear. “*You have never called on me before, have you?” asked Julian, “Cortainly not,” replied the visitor, “I have just found you, and it was no easy maf 1 can tell you.” “All this is very hard for me to be- lieve,” replied Julian, and it will take time to convince me of its realty.” “Well, money ought to be tangible enough,” said the lawyer. “If you felt like drawing for & few thousand now I'll arrange it for you.” Such a proposition was not to be re- fused, and in the course of the day Julian hed 810,000 to his oredit. in the bank. P And thon he broke down under ‘the wbrain, Forileng weeks he lay sither it unconcious or delirous, and the watch- ers by his bedside wondered at his talk. ““His good luck turned his brain for the time,” said 01d Mr. Howard. And this was the view people took of the case. The sober business men of the town refused to believe that a pon- niless young man, with nothing to back ‘him but a dream, had secured almost unlimited oredit and a rich heivess in the bargain. “Dreams don’t an out that way,” sald one of them, and this was the general nion.
