following note OF progress in the APP
plication of electricity: .sOnly twelve
years ago Professor TyndalI gave his
course Of memorable lectures in Hor-
ticultural Hail. Ne had with him as
a part Of his apparatus an arc light.
The lamp was regulated by clock work,
and cost probably ten times as much
as the lamps made to day. It was
imperfect in every way. the light be-
ing very unsteady and several times
got out OF order st critical moments
The current WAS supplied from vol
taic battery, at cost that precluded
its use for any but Occurring purposes.
The battery, besides being costly and
troublesome, required the constant
work Of an attendant for day or two
to set up, and it also was very apt to
get out of order Dynamo machines
were not unknown at that time. but
they too were costly. and for lecturing
purposes the battery was considered
best. Looking at the display oflamps
in the exhibition, und the great varie-

VICTORIA September 18th Two Danes
named Vinlis Peterson and Peter Miller
just arrived from Kodiak Island, near the
Alaskan mainland, after 105 days in a
kayak, or Aleu,ian canoe, which weighs
only 70 pounds is nineteen feet long and
two feet wide. The canoe is formed Of the
skins of sea-Hons stretched on 4 wooden
framework, with apartTes for the bodies OF
the paddlers, which can be made water
tight by bladder-iike skins fastened round
the occupants Both men leave in a few
days for Portland and San Francisco, and
at both places will lecture upon the trip and
place the canoe on exhibition.
For some time past it has been suspected
that the Chinese were removing the bodies
of their dead counuymen from the Old
cemetery previous to the bone-scraping and
burning, ready for shipment to China, in
defiance of the local Act forbidding said
desecratiOn unless by order of the Coroner.
A grave-stone had been damaged and the
