TELEGRAPH operators report Il great
electrical disturbance which took
their wires out of their command for a
period of about fourteen hours yester-
day. The disturbance was not contin-
uous but intermittent. Its cause is not
understood, some attribrting 1t to an
excessive amount of electricity in the
atmosphere while others think that the
surcharge was in the earth. Evidently
q great deal remains to he learned about
this great agent. It is not yet fully har-
messed. Its tremendous power may yet
be controlled to the service of man 50 as
to supplant steam. None can say what
may or may not be done with it. The
discoveries of the last half century have
been so great that none that may be in
the womb of the future can surprise us.
Electricity Is the hopeful field of discov-
cry, in which the much that has been
revealed is evidently but i part of what
remains to he uncovered. 1t furnishes
light, transmits news and is capable of
supplying power. All these values are
of late revelation, and it is highly i'm
probable that we have already obtained
all that is obtainable. The ardent minds
that are investigating the energies of
electricity are constantly rebuffed in
their search, but they will yet have their
labors fully rewarded.

when Vanderbilt went to Mr.. Governs
relief by purchasing heavy interest in
the Reading railroad. The coal of this
region is needed by the Reading road
and its northern connections, and it is a
matter of certainty that the profitable
monopoly now enjoyed by the Penn
sylvania railroad in its carriage will not
be suffered to continue. The immense
freightage Of the Pennsylvania road out
of this coal basin compels rival trans
portation, and the public interest will be
immensely profited by it. Coal for which
the miner is paid one dollar ton yields
the railroad for transportation to Lam
caster about two and a half times that
sum which is certainly not fair di-
vision of the value of the material. The
consumer ought to pay less. the miner
get more and the carrier get less.

A Remarkable Apology.
Prof. Brown felt called upon to arise to

An impression, no continued, had got

Parker On the Teachers Mission.
He spoke of the possibilities before
teachers if they would work with unre

requires activity Of the teacher, but un-

laying the foundation Of knowledge.
