Mr. Furay cried, “Ob, get out,” or words to that effect. Ross retreated.

He anchors one end of these cables to the shore and on the other end he piaces bags of sand and brush, These have a ‘tendency to form a sand bar and prevent further grosion. Major Schuls and W. A. Campbel of the Commercial club will attend the state waterways convention at Plerre, 8. D. Monday evening. The major says that a complete line of boats will be In operation this summer between Plerre and Fort Benton, Mont., and another line between Kansas City and St. Louis, leaving the stretch between Kaneas City and Plerre without boats. He says he would Mke to use the City of Peorla, the exeursion boat now anchored at Omaha, in river work thie summer. The major says the §1,000,000 & year for ten years appropriated by con- gress for the Missourl river between St. Louls and Sfoux City is about all that can be economically spent and that the ap- propriation for the first year probably will bo spent between Kansas City and St Logls, as that part of the river will be using boats.

The forthcoming meeting of the Amer- foan Institute of Electrical Bnginéers at Charlotte, N. C., will bring oyt many in- teresting discussions of the problems that corfronts the electrical world. This body of men constitute a sort of court of lnst resort in affairs electrical, not so much in the way of invention as In devising ways and means toward making all elec- trical progress available for the use of the race. They are malnly men who are con- neoted with the big electric establishments of the country, and they discuss kilawatts, amperes, ohms, armatures and such things in an intimate way that is quite confusing to the layman. One of the most. Important probiems in "the field of electricity is that of the com- mercial practicabllity of the new storage battery street car. Trials have been made which prove that it is a mechanieal suc- cess, and if works as well com- merclally urbafi transportation problems will under; great a change as markoed the passing of the horse car and the com- ing of the trolley, For years the central power plant has been considered the last word in thé economical operation of street car systems, although its installation has meant the expenditure of millions *for plant equipment, underground trolleys and over- head wires. Now comes the storage bat- tery ear with clalms for preference, which the New York trials under actual trans- portation conditions seem to vindicats. The cost of operation is very much I and the cost of Installation amounts to even etill less. Moving independent of every other car on the line, so far as motive power is concerned, there can be no tie-up on account of the “fuice” giving out. There are no plows to get stuck in 8 slot, or overhead wires to be broken in case of sleet or storms. The storage battery street car will prove & boon to the ambitious, but embryo metropolis that flourishes in almost every country. The prohibitive cost of installa- tion has prevented many small places from having street car systems. With the storage battery car all shat needs to be done s to lay a track, buy the ca and a street car system is ready for t gala day of formal opening. Thus the horsg car has come back, With the ex- ception that Instead of a horse of skin and bone and spavin, dragsing the car along at & snall's pace, the passenger has a horse of metal and chemical riding beneath his feet and ‘carrylng him as it goes—a horse which Is never lable to condemnation by a local Soclety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. In these days when wonder follows wot- der with lightning-like rapldity in the field of electrical invention, the announcement of a television telephone does not tax the credulity as much as the telégraph instru- ment did two or three Fenerations ago. This great ddea no longér exists merely In the fevered imagination of some Jules Verne—it is now in actual process of ac- complishment. Think of {t! Golng to your telephone and wseeing the person at the other end of the wire, though miles and mountains lio between. The idea is sald to be as well developed 8s was wire telegraphy a decade ago. It all s to come sbout through the discovery that onme of the -elements known as selenfum will con- duct electricity when asubjectéd to light, and is & non-conductor when in-the dark. The degree of its conductivity depends upon the Intenseness of light and shade, In the transmitter there-is a frame filled with selenium, cells like honey-qomb n the little pound, boxes found in, the grocery store. By means of a strong light, @ mirror and a lens the image of an object 1s pro- Jeoted onto the cells, and those on which the light falls send currents of varying Intensity out upon a revolving wheel, called the collector. This - collector turns very rapldly and transmits the electrlcal im- pulses to the recelving station. At the re- celving end the impulses sent out by the transmitter are gathered and transformed into light rays again through a peculiar chemical-mechanical process. Thus is the exact dupiicate of the Image at the trans mitting_end reproduced at the receiving end. The appartus is the invention of two forelgn sclentists, Messrs, Rignoux and Fournler.

As the sellers ot gas and electricity are look at the interested in having good sized blils, they | do not rush to adopt the economical slot- | meters. In figuring out what a cent's worth of electricity will do the statistican has founa that ft will drive a tweive-inch fan for ninety minutes, heat a six-pound smoothing iron for fifteen minutes, make four cups of coffee in an electrical percolater, cook a #00d sized ateak, heat a luminous radiator elght minutes, brig to a boll two quarts of water, drive a dentists drill four hours and run a planolo one hour. One of the big manufacturers of electrical machinery is making some turbine-driven electrical units of 14,000-kilowatt capacity. To appreciete what power these great en- gines will generatd one must have It ex- pressed in comprehensible terms.

If it were running on a railroad track it would travel 5.66 miles a minute, or trom New York to San. Fran- clsco in nine and a half hours. The rotat- ing mechanism welghs ninety tons, yet so perfectly it {s mounted that it can be turned with one finger. One of these units would light 350,00 sixteen-candle power electric lights, enough to illuminate 600 miles of hallway ten feet wide, or supply an sor light for every 150 feet between New York and Chicago.

Not long ago an enterprising theatrical man staged what he called an electrical ballet. There were dozens of chorus glrls wearing costumes which could be lighted with myraids of tiny electric bulbs. The dresses were wired and the little bulbs hidden away. Contact was made by their escorts holding the wires in their hands and pressing them agalnst a metal plate at the back of the girls’ waists. The result is sald to have afforded ‘a beautiful and unique spectacle, and by A well organized system of handling the wires it completely mystified the audience as to the source of the electricity. While discussing the eleotric elevator problem & speaker before the Electrical Engineering soclety of . Columbia univer- sity stated that the 8,000 passenger eleva- tors on Manhattan island carry more than 000,000 passengers a day. Roughly speak- this is twice as many people as are carried by all the elevated, underground and surface cars of the clty. If each per- son rides only fifty feet the aggregate dls- tance traveled in this way,.would be nearly 60,000 miles a day. ‘The Engineering soclety ot New York recently kept an account of the expense of elevator sefyice in its bulid- in ing there, which are.said o approximate ~the average, it costs about 1 cent & round trip to carry passengers. At this rate the burrough of Manbattan, algne spends $35,000 & day In free elevator rides. In an address delivered In Winnipeg a few days ago Prof. J. J. Thompson esti- mated that under a high sun and clear sky the power guaranteed by the sun amounts to about 7,00 horse power per acre. He figures that when the natural resources of America give out its people will have mas- tered the problem of using solar energy, and that the world's business centers may then be moved to regions, like the Desert of Sahara, where sunshine can be stored day in and day out throughout the year. It will then be distributed by big electrical transmission lines to less favorable spots for use In industrial activity. By FREDERIO J. EASKIN. Tomorrow—Flowsr Festivals.
