Electricity.

DIR. +. NJ. Cloak has been testing the
practicability of the Bunsen system of
electricity in small way in producing
an electric light in his store. He has
four cells Quart jars) which are con-
nected by wire and charged with the
proper acids for generating in a small
way what is done on a larger scale bv
the force generated by steam power.
1t Is claimed that four cells thus con-
structed will give light equal to six
teen candles, but if so, it must be bv
skillful hands with the best adjust
ment
The practical use of electricity is vet
in its infancy. AS an illuminator it
stands at the head of the list, and when
used in sufficient quantity can be made
to virtually turn night into day.
Whether it can be made the practical
servant to man that steam has is a
question yet to be solved. In fact. it is
charged to the credit of steam or ratb-
er its discredit that from being the
" slave " it has become the "tvrant" "
in that its expense in machinery makes
1t the ally of the rich in their combi-
nations of capital in which IA few be-
come the rich mOnOpOlsts while the
laborers, are forced by insurmountable
circumstances to remain in poverty,
ignorance and u dependent life.
The electric motor on the contrary.
when perfected, will be cheap power,
with the convenience that it can be run
on a small scale with the same ratio of
expenditure as on large scale. It
must thus become a benefactOr of the
people rs it will make small CAPITALS
useful and competitors with the Joint
stock companies to a degree of success
they cannot expect with the more ex-
Penslve steam. Its divisable quality
may in time enable its use in most or
all the pursuits of life with the oppor-
tunity for the workman to become a
in his own house. The
combinations of wealth where the busi-
ness is controlled by very few men
who hold hundreds and thousands yir-
tually as their subjects is one of the
growing features of our modern civil
zation that must create discomfort if
not rebellion, and if a way out of it is
to come through the new and mighty |
force of electricity, then it may be
hailed as that power and potency u
that is more than by all other means
to give mankind an equality of oppor-
5unities.

this town has decided to hold a Festi-

Mrs. ANNA E. JUMP, of Kenton died
December 26th, aged so years, after a
prolonged illness. Her husband, VIM.
c. Jump, lives in Missouri whittier she
started some two or three weeks ago.
but had to return after getting as far as
New York. She came East six or
eight months ago in greatly impaired
health. She was a daughter of the
late Jas. D. Wilds, of Kenton.
On Christmas-eve night daughter
of William H. Carr got out of bed in
half conscious condition and picking
up the lamp started to the room of her
parents. The lamp however slipped
from her slight hold and in the fall set
the oil afre, which greatly alarmed
the children, their screams awoke
their father who soon put out the lamp
and burning carpet. Mr.. Carr, whose
house was burglarized last Summer.
first thought that robbers had again
entered the house through the chill
drens room in search of his Christmas
eve sales.
A GLOOM has been cast over the

to Mr.. Wilson a year or so ago, who
succeeded to the management of the
home farm last Spring, after the death
of his father, the late Peter Wilson.
The funeral, which will take place to-
morrow, will doubtless be largely at
tended. The interment will be at

Silver Wedding.

A large company of the friends OF

at their home on Friday evening last
to celebrate the twenty-iifth anniver-
sary of their marriage. The visit was
on the surprise order, and the COM
pany passed very social and pleasant
evening, breaking up at about eleven
O'Clock. Among the gifts presented
were ahandsOme lounge, set of silver
spoons, vases, tableware and other
articles. The refreshments. provided
by the visitors, consisted of an album
dance of Carr's ice cream and a variety
OF toOthsome cakes. Before the sepa-
ration of the company Mr.. Lassell ex-
pressed his obligation for the substan-
tlal as well as the personal evidences
OF friendship, which was responded to
appropriately by Rev. Mr.. Quigg who
hoped that his friends would have the
further pleasure yet of attending his
golden wedding"

Sundays Centennial Discourse.


Watchman, what of the night p,
Isaiah xxi, II, was the text of last Sun
day mornings discourse by Rev. J. b.
Quigg. The subject was the life, the
work and the condition of the Metho-
dist Church, past, present and future
On account of the unfavorable weather
the services were held in the lecture
room, and the congregation, though
not as large as could have been de-
sired, was deeply interested in the dis
course, which was in the nature of a
centennial sermon, this being, as the
speaker said, the first Sunday of the
second century of organized Method
ism in America. He spoke of the
growth and prosperity of the church in
the past, saying that its condition a hum
dred years ago and now might be rep
resented by the elegant Mt. Vernon
Place Church, in Baltimore, where the
recent Centennial Conference was
held, and the "Lovely Lane Chapel"
the little board structure which
was first used century back. The
Church is rich and powerful. Her
wealth and power are increasing: she
has given million dollars year on
the average to foreign missions during
the last thirty-fve years. Her church
edifices in America are worth seventy
millions. The membership numbers
3,8OO,OOO; the population of this coun-
try has doubled in twenty-five wears.
will double in the next twenty-five
and at this ratio in fifty years we shall
have 24O,OOO,O00 people. If the mem
bership grows proportionately, as it
doubtless will, what will our church
be in another century? But in sue
cess and prosperity, in the increase of
wealth and power, the church is in
danger of losing spirituality: of de-
creasing in that spiritual warmth and
love that have made her mighty fac
tor in the enlightenment and salvation
of the world. To guard against thus
retrograding we must have the spirit
of Christ, the meek, loving, charitable
disposition; we must cultivate chris
tian generosity, the habit of giving and
helping. There is nothing that so tends
to degrade an individual or an institu.
ton as misused wealth, but if we con-
stantly remember that the possession of
riches is a divinely given stewardship
and use it with generous hand in the ,
elevation of the cause of all that Is !
good and pure, we shall be saved from ,
these possible attendant evils. The
church must not discontinue her |
methods of labor, the long-employed i
means of strength and growth must \
not be thrown aside; the Methodist I
revival has been "A mighty power in l
me growth of the church and the sal a
."1lon OF men-do not let its fire and Il
oree diminish; it must be the great h
aclorin future good and future growth. I
Smyrna times., 1884-12-31

the people must be converted and
added to the church by these special
efforts. The usages of Methodism
must continue, the attendance upon
class meetings and other means of
grace will have the effect of keeping
the religious life bright and warm
while without these we may lose the
religious feeling, the joyous experience,
and drift back toward the world. For
want of space we can give but a sketch
OF what was received as an edifying, re-
freshing and profitable discourse, full of
good counsel to the church at home.
and replete with information and in
structiOn.
Smyrna times., 1884-12-31
Cost orIce-

Ice, that until a few years ago was
free to all who wished to get it from
Smyrna mill pond, now costs ten cents
wagon load. At the Duck Creek
pond the proprietor furnishes the ice.
cuts and loads it on the wagons for
90 cents load. When the large per
cent of loss by Summer heat is taken
into consideration it can be readily
seen that the cost of that actually used
makes it amount to a luxury.

these had been employed the patients
life might have been saved, hence the
liability, for negligence
