Troops Struck by Lightning.

A terrible experience, almost unique In
military annals, Is recorded by a correspond
ens at the Cape Of Good Hope In connection
with the march Of the Diamond Field horse
TO the. scene Of operations In Basutoland last
year. The men had outspanned for break
fast, when heavy thunder storm suddenly
burst over them, 50 severe In Its effects that
they were forced to abandon their attempt to
procure meal, and remounted in hope Of
riding out of the storm. Toward three in
the afternoon IL broke upon them with in
creased violence, the rain falling apparently
In sheets snd the flashes of lightning appear
ing continuous. At last fash struck the
troop, fingins seventeen horses with their
riders to the ground, aud killing ten men
and five horses on the spot. Those who
were not killed were seriously injured; and
It was long before animation could be re-
stored In the case Of seven OF the men. The
bits and stirrup irons Of the whole number
were blackened and many Of the men,
though personally uninjured, bad their cloth
ing rent by the force Of The electric discharge.
The greatest difficulty was naturally expert
enced In preventing . general stampede
among the frightened horses.

which Il entirely overcome by the

Pickering, which II entirely overcome by thu
use OF little glycerine pump, which over
comes the force Of gravity sufficiently to keeT
the carbon points In just the right position
The trouble heretofore has been the unsteady
motion of the points; this pumps does away
with this aud steady light Is the conse.
quence.
To put ont the light, or rather TO shut II
of. all that Is necessary Is to turn q snail
key and the effect IL instantaneous. Should
a carbon point burn out, there Is an auto
matte movement which cuts off the current
and sends 1t ahead on the main circuit. lift
was not for this, the strong current, not hav-
| ing any carbon to consume. would melt the
lamp. 1858 "..@ %
There are two carbon points. IL Is at these
points tina. the light is produced. They are
twelve inches long and burn eight hours.
There is, however, double lamp which con-
tains two sets Of points, and the instant one
is consumed an automatic movement turns
the current OIL the other, thus giving sixteen
hours light instead Of eight. This movement
from the consumed point to the new one, is
80 rapid that the inteimission is not percep-
tible.
There is no heat except right at the carbon
points. The hand may be held one inch
away without being burned, but the heat
against the points is so intense thai the hard
est metals readily melt when put in 1t.
1t will be seen that these lights are free
from danger, and IL Is also said they have .
purifying effect on the atmosphere. There
Is no odor, and no dirt vf any kind except
PARTICLES of consumed carbon. which fall into
a little cup in the globe provided for the pur-
pose, and thus are prevented from reaching
the floor. taa s.. .@.s
The lights are each 1000 candle power;
and with 120 to start on, ii looks like being
lifted out of darkness into day.
With the facts above presented, |. seems
the electric light as now perfected, must win
the confidence of the Salt Lake people, and
they have every reason to be proud of the
city's record in this respect. Mr.. Upper
says the works are firsL-class, and one of the
largest in the world. 1t is expected the light
will be In operation about the middle of this
week, when the people will have chance to
judge of it for themselves.
Mr.. Upper will remain here until the
light is in successful operation, and then he
expects to 60 to Ogden and attend TO the
starting of the light there.
Further information will be placed before
our readers when the light is started, and
list of the cities where the light is used, and
to what extent, and we can assure them that
Salt Lake will be well up in the lists. l..

choked With Wee DIS.
The notice of the death of Lucius b
Boomer, the great bridge builder, recalls to
the writer's memory the story Of brother
Of Mr.. Boomer, which, when the writer first
heard, possessed peculiar interest for him
1t was years ago that this Mr.. Boomer, then
young man, from New England, appeared
in the then still and solitary country on the
lower Usage river, In Missouri. Missouri
was slave country and this was about the
most unprogressive part Of 1t, though this
was near the capital Of the State. The
young New Highlander set . thousand mel
at work get out lumber in the forests that
line the stream. He conceived the idea, too,
Of founding In the Missouri woods New
England village, and stores, mills and many
dwellings arose on a sloping hillside on the
river, and the village was called, after cliff
on the opposite Shore. Castle Rock. The
enterprising founder built little church,
with the provision that any denomination of
Christians might occupy it.
All went well, and for time there was no
such village anywhere as Castle Rock. Then
came the war. The people of the country
were divided In sentiment. Boomer rallied
the loyalists of the neighborhood and joined
q Missouri regiment, marched away to the
southwark, rose to Lieutenant Colonelsy
and fell In one of the battles around Vicks-
burg. With his death blight fell on his
ambitious plans, framed, as bis letter pub
lished after his death showed, not In the in
terest Of business alone, but for the good Of
che people among whom his lot had been
cast. No friendly hand took up his work.
The sound Vi the ringing axe was heard no
more along the Usage. The great business
he had built up ceased, and few years ago
the village of Castle Rock had almost ceased
to exist, except In name. The mills were ST.
lent. Dusty and forlorn weeds encroached
upon the highways and the door of the de-
serted church swung idly to and fro. The
dream of New England village, with Its
weekday business and Sunday calm, in the
Missouri wilderness had faded away forever.

A Tribune reporter yesterday strolled into
the Electric Light Works and found Mr.. Jno.
A. Topper busily engaged In setting up the
machines. This gentleman was sent out
here by the Brush Co., Of Cleveland, for the
purpose Of putting the system In complete
operation.
Mr.. Topper, In answer TO many questions
put to him, patiently gave large amount Of
information OF interest TO all.
There are three machines here Of the lar
gcst size, each capable Of supplying 40 lights,
and the whole 40 lights are engaged, SO the
machines win be run TO their full capacity.
They are models Of beauty, and will produce
n powerful current OF electricity. Each ma
chine makes TOO revolutions per minnie.
One machine IL about completed, and rs
the connection was made the reporter laid
( his hand on the eliminating point and slow
iy turned the wheel. The effect was electri-
cal, and genuine shock was experienced,
which made one realize what the effect must
be when running ut full speed. The danger
of the machines and attachments has been
greatly diminished by having all The exposed
parts heavily insulated. On the wall will be
placed switch which win receive and re-
tain that electricity which Is thrown on the
circuit by the shutting on Of any light, thus
preventing II passing into the remaining
lights, This obyiates any dlmunitIon Of
speed. 1t Is simply an automatic cutoff or
governor.
Accepting Mr.. Tupper's invitation to visit
bis work shop, the reporter walked with him
down to the Walker House. His shop b In
the basement, sndis indeed IN interesting
place. He has large number of lamps fixed
ready for hanging. These lamps arc the
most novel part Of the whole invention.
They ere perfectly automatic, and y seems
