that the portion increasing the salary Of

WHEN we contemplate the wonderful
revolution affected by the progress in sci
ence in the past fifty years, we are almost
prepared to believe that there are but few
things impossible for man to accomplish.
The remotest corners of the earth are
brought into almost instant communica-
ton by telegraph. The Western Cont
nent is spanned by road of iron. "Old
Probabilities " sits in0Ais office at WASH
ington and from the information pouring
in upon him from every section of the ma
ton, sends out his prediction of the storms
and sunshine for the morrow, which may
be read at almost every breakfast table in
the land The approach of the tornado is
announced hours before its fearful power
is manifested, so that, as far as possible,
safeguards may be prepared to rob it Of its
terrors. DID
But new powers are to be put into hui
man hands. 1t seems that even the winds
may be made to blow where we list and
the thunderstorm be chained at our bid
ding. An aerial telegraph has been in
vented, in which the electricity created by
nature is to furnish the electrical dynamic
power for communicating from one conti-
nent to the other. Prof. LOOMS, who has
letters patent from Washington saws that
by erecting towers on high mountain
ranges and by taking advantage of the
electrical currents which he contends exist
at given attitudes, he can bring distant
points in easy communication. With the
electric current referred to and the mega
tive electric current in the earth, which he
connects by wires from his elevated tow
ers, he can create circuit which will en-
able him to control the electricity in the
atmosphere. His own explanation of his
invention is given as follows:
AS atmospheric electricity is found more and
more abundant when moisture, clouds, heated
currents of air and other disspating influences
are left below and a greater altitude attained my
plan is to seek as high an elevation as practical
BILE on the tops of high mountains and thus pene-
trate or establish electrical connection with the
atmospheric stratum or ocean everything local
disturbances. Upon these mountain tops erect
suitable towers and apparatus to attract the cleo
tricity, or in other words to disturb the eectri>
cal equilibrium, and thus obtain current of
or shocks rpulsations which traverse
or disturb the positive electrical body of the at
mosphere above and between two given points
by communicating it to the negative electrical
body in the earth below, to form the electrical
circuit.
Practical experiments in Virginia have
that his plan is feasible. We
are living in an age of wonderful inven-
tons and this seems to be one of the
greatest yet developed.

revolution. Deep blowing and utilizing
manners is the absorbing topic among the
farmers. Why will not the tillers of the
