CURIOUS ELECTRICAL PHENOME-
NON

From the Virginia (Navada) Enterprise, June III
| During the past three nights the engineers
and machinsts at the round house of the Vir-
ginia and Truckee Railroad Company, in this
city, have been in a state of lively excitement
about some strange electrical disturbances
| which have occurred there regularly every
night. For three nights all hands have been
engaged in trying to solve the mystery, but
have only partially succeeded. The COM
pany erected a large smokestack, which rises
to a considerable height above the roof of the
round house. At the base this smokestack is
spread out in the shape of funnel. 1t was
built in order that the locomotive may stand
under it to cool off when they come IN off the
road, and also while Icing fired up. In the
side of this smokestack, three or four days
ago, was run a stove-pipe from stove stand.
Ing in room about forty feet distant. 1t is
about this ST owe that the electrical disturbance
es take place. The first that was observed of
these was about IL o'clock, four nights since,
when P. Hppingham, a well-known machn-
| ist, approached the stove for the purpose of
stick of putting wood in it, As the stick
| neared the stove he received such shock
that it fell from his hand, and his arm was
benumbed. He at first thought he had taken
a sudden cramp in his arm. In trying again
to put the wood into the stove he received
second shock. This time he observed fash
and heard sharp snap, which he at one rec
ognized as discharge of electricity. They
tried all manner of expericents, and found
that the stove was fully and heavily charged
with electricity, it giving out sparks and fash
| es when piece of iron, steel, wood, or the
naked hand approached it. After an hour or
two the phenomenon ceased. The next day
nothing was seen of it; but the next night,
about ii o'clock, shortly after locomotive
came in and stopped under the funnel of the
smokestack, the stove was again charged, and
began swapping and cracking, sending out
sparks and flashes on all sides. So it has
been every night since. They now know
that the heated locomotive causes this electri-
cal display, but in just what wa yis that which
is still puZZling them

The Boston Journal in an editorial
noticing the declination of Mr.. Dawes to
be candidate, thinks the State cannot af-
ford to allow him to 60 into retirement
and will need him in the Senate of the
United States. 1t says: 1.-The State of
Massachusetts will replace the Berkshire
District in still giving the Union the bene-
fit of Mr.. Dawes services in higher, not
more congenial field. The republican
organization cannot afford to show that it
has any lower estimate OF what is due to
its own advantage and advancement, to
say nothing of what is becoming toward
a most successful public servant, still in
the prime of his usefulness, or what the
national interests demand. 1t needs no
prophet, therefore, to say that while Mr.
Dawes purposes to retire wholly from pub
JIG life, the people of Massachusetts will
simply promote him, with whatever briet
interval unavoidable exigencies my re-
require, from the House to the United
States Senate"

The Washington correspondent of the Trit'
une, who seldom finds anything to commend
in the Republican majority in Congress, now
says:
Whatever may be said of the first session OF
the Forty -third Congress, as to its want OF
courage on many subjects, and its want OF
caution on others, it cannot be denied that il
has been freer from Jobs and schemes than
any that has assembled here for years; and il
must also be said that its appropriations have
been made with greater caution, and with
more regard for economy than might have
been expected. The calendar of either house
has at no time been unmarked by dishonest
schemes, but there has been great surprise on
all sides, in many cases heightened to disap-
pointment, that SO few of them have obtained
favorable action. 1t does not appear that the
city has been freer of lobbers, or what is the
more modern phrase, "agents to promote leg
islation," then in former years, for the hotels
have oeen full for the most part, and furn-
ished houses with all the modern facilities
have been in demand.

There is protest coming up from some
of the States by the democracy against
the Free Trade plank in the Maine demo-
cratic platform. The Hartford Times says
that Free Trade and direct taxation was
ian old cry, but it never prevailed; and,
ION the whole. the system of tariff for
"revenue is the tax system which bears
"most lightly on the people, The Trib-
une says the resolution VIRTUALLY de-
mands the payment of the revenues by
direct taxation When the democratic
farmers of Maine take this resolution and
consider that it means direct taxation, and
that direct taxation bears heavily upon the
landholder, they will probably be slow to
give it an endorsement by voting for Tit
comb. We don't believe they desire very
much to increase their own burdens.

The explosion of fire crackers in the
streets is a reminder that the Fourth OF
July is at hand. If the authorities would
prevent the use of these explosives, in the
manner in which the boys employ them to
celebrate independence, there would be a
great amount of mischief and many serious
disasters prevented every year. The
record of accidents that will occur next
Saturday from crackers alone will no
doubt be long one. Pity the boys could
not find some less dangerous way to vent
their patriotism than exploding these arti-
Giles around buildings and under the feet
of passing horses, and firing rusty and

The Providence journal, one of the
most strenuous Of the advocates of early
resumption and also representing the OPP.
inions of Senator Anthony who voted
against the bill, says of the currency bill
passed in the closing days of Congress and
signed by President Grant
1.-THE signing of the currency bill by the
President was, undoubtedly, an act of wise
craftsmanship. 1t is not the bill he would
have drawn, but it is in some respects good
bill better, perhaps, in this, that it is such
bill as not only puts an end for the present
to public discussion of the currency question,
but such bill as is a guaranty that there
shall be no initiation. What was, above all,
desirable in the interests of the business COM
munity, was that something should be settled
that at least until the next session of Congress,
and presumably for longer time, capitalists
should know the exact limit of the currency.
II, as we fully believe, 1t would have been
better 10 have made the limit, excluding the
twenty -six millions so doubtfully issued, yet
it is something to have limit. As to the re-
distribution of the currency, it is technically
well that it should be done, but practically il
is of the slightest importance. There are now

Rev. A. Il. Crane, pastor of the Baptist
church in this city, took hi, people somewhat
by surprise On Sabbath forenoon last, by ten
dering his resignation, to take effect from
date, after a long, pleasant and successful
pastorate of nearly thirteen years. Since the
meeting of the Baptist State convention at
Winthrop the rumor has been current that
Mr.. Crane had teen rendered the responsible
position of raising the contemplated "endow-
ment fund" for the Classical Institutes in the
interest of Colby University, and that lie had
given some encouragement that he would
yield to the earnest solicitations of the board
Of trustees, and devote his services to the sue
cess of that important object. In order to do
this it would become necessary for him to re-
tire for time from pastoral labors, and visit
various parts of the State, in pursuance Of the
business entrusted to his care. In thus sever
ing his pastoral relations with the church and
society, he expressed in words of Christian
affection his regard for his people, ndividu
ally and collectively; assuring them of his
continued and abiding interest in their well
fare, and of the utmost harmony and fellow
ship with all. 1t is seldom that pastorate of
SO long continuance has resulted in so gem
eral harmony throughout and although cir
cumstances have finally transpired to lead the
consciousness of bearing with him the best
wishes and prayerful interest of his people,
and the respect and confidence of the entire
community.
1t will seem by the advertisement of Frank
O. Brown in another column, that he has pur
chased the old stand of II. ID. Pinkham, we'll
known as the "South End Market" and will
will continue the business in all its branches.
1t is the design Of Mr.. Brown to keep first
class establishment, and we doubt not his ef-
forts will be appreciated by the public.

tending from the American Bank building to
Central street, provided the small corner lot
can be obtained. We trust satisfactory ar
engagements may be made to ensure the sue
cess of this enterprise, which could not fail
to be a paying one. Such stores are greatly
needed at the present time.

The New York papers are giving good
deal of space to the discussion of hydro.
phobia, several cases having occurred
there recently. The best authorities seem
to think that genuine cases ofhydrophobia
are very rare, that many which are called
such are not SO in reality, and that with
proper precaution in the use of such rem
edies as may be found at any apothecary
shop persons bitten by dogs have no occa-
sion to fear serious. consequences. Fear
it is said causes many deaths which are
