It isexpected by eleetrical engi- neers that during 1891 several such ronds will be built und equipped. Putting aside this field, however, at- tention may be confined to the use of the electrie motor for stationary power pu poses, It is quite possible that several of those who read these lines may never have seen an electric motor, yet it 1s none the less true that there arve today already in opération inthis country over thirty thousand electric motors of vari- ous sizes, engaged inan endless variety of occupations, One company building motors reports that its machines are now employed in nearly two hundred distinet industries, and _that new uses are found daily. This development has y within thel 3 From 1880 up to 188 al *engineers and contractors he given their attention mainly to the in- stallation of electrie lighting plants in American towns and cities, with the sult that there were some 1, stations in operation supplying the are light or the incandescent light, and sometimes both. A great many of these stations paid well from the start, but it W soon found that the lighting business was after all a limited one; that is, it could only be car- ried on during the hours of dark- noss, so that a valuable plant often lay idle sixteen or eighteen hours out of the twenty-four. Yet the current which such aplant could generate would lend itself as readily to driving an electric motor as as to furnishing light in a lamp, and the same circuit that conveyed it to the lamps would also convey it to the motors. It was this fact that gave a great stimulus to the electric motor in- dustry about three years ago, and led to the perfecting of what had theretofore been a crude and cumbersome picce of mechanism. As is now generully known the electric motor has but one mov- ing part, the revolving armature,and by mouns of a pulley placed at the end of the armature shaft its pow 1 be ap- plied to any piece of apparatus or ma- ; known to the arts. Butup to 1886 nearly all the electric motors had been badly designed and poorly built,and the current that should have been di- corted into power was simply wasted in Joping heat, so that the machines idly burnt out and otherwise became s, and were altogether too expen- E torun, At the present time, hoy ever, there areseveral electric motors the market of excelient design and workmanship, for which as high an effi- ciency as over 90 per cent is claimed, and there can be no doubt that the rate of efficiency in the smaller sizes as well asin the l)m-m\r is the highest that has yet been attained b transmission machinery, any piece of power Thus an electrie motor. or one-half of one-quu ter horse power will easily show as high an efliciency as that of another sort of motor of ten or fifteen horse power, yet nobody dreams of expecting a gas engine quarter or onc anything but or a steam engine of one- half horse power to give small return upon the fuel applied toit. Moreover, with the electrie motor an enormous advantage has been the fact that when it has been installed and connections have been made with the circuits connecting it with the central station itis p ically ready that minute for work. All that is nccessavy is the turning of a switch wd the “current is instantaneously there. With the steam ecngine, even when the steam is taken from the steam mains in the street, considerable atten- tion is necessary, and in the vast major- ity of instances the steam has to be manufactured on the spot, so that boilers are necessary, involving the at- tendance of anexpert engineer, the sup- pl{ of water and coal and the removal of ashes- Such steam plunts also occupy considerable space, and throw off no small amount of heat. The idea, how- ever, with the electric motor, is to con- centrate in a central station all the in- convenience connected with the genera- tion of steam, and to transmit the encrgy in the form of current, so that all the user has to do is to dvaw off the nurpl; as he wants it, justas he would do in turning a'tap to procure a supply of water, Today eloctric motors in different parts of the country are running feed cutters in stables, und are also used to brush the horses down. Others arve used to run butter churns.

Outwest some of the uses it been put to in mining iz specially nots ble. Providence, in its inserutable dis- pensation of things, hus generally ar- ranged that the best mines shall be the farthest removed from the water power best adapted for working them, and hence it often happens that valuable veins have been worked at a loss or clse only after mountains have been cireum- vented or bored through for expensive canals, With electric motors, howe! water power in the shape of clectric current can be carried up hill and down dale, and though it has been said that we can never grind with the water that has passed, the old adago is now strictly untrue, several instances being on record in which this has been done with the most brilliant suc . In not a few western mines the energy thus reclimed from watér power several miles below is being carried back upinto the hills, and thero employed to run hoists and vanners, guartz mills, stamps, pumps, amalgamators und other appli- ances for which power is necessary In one striking instance the electric motor has been employed to recover gold that seemed to be utterly beyond rcach, In other words, it had heen attached to pumps for laying bare the bed of the river in which auriferous sand had been deposited for countless ages, The river course lay at the bottom of a deep gorge where the usc of uny other machinery would have been quite out of the que: tion; but a portable little electric motor mounted on light platforms, e: removy- able in case of sudden flood or other emergency, the whole problem was easi- ly solved, and for the first time since the sun rose over California the bed of that river was exposed and made to yield up its scerets and its wealth, In another extraordinary instance electric motors are employed in mining purposes in the Chollar mine, in the great Comstock lode. There water, which has already done a large amount of work at the surface, is conducted under a 1,600 feet head to water wheels ut the bottom of the mine, which there drive an electrical generating plant, The current from this plant is conveyed by wires back tothe surface and there operate electric motors, each of soventy-five horse power, which hefp in driving the big mainshaft of the mill, s supplementing the work which is doneon the same ground, There is no other way conccivable in which the s developed by the water falling this tremendous head could be ndit remained for the genius nical and electrical out such a stupendous of Amer engineel enterprise. e Three Suicides Over a Love Affair, Mrs. Louise Biletskicommitted suicide at Baltimore the other day by dissolving the heads of sulphor matches in milk and then drinking the solution.
