Interesting Amateur Photography.

papers published the following and cred
tied it to the Ell Paso Times. On Sunday
Mrs. T. Howard witnessed the balloon as
cension, and few days later presented
Mr.. Howard with a nice little boy, who
bears singular birthmark, which is
nothing more nor less than perfect re-
presentation of Prof. LeRoy's balloon.
The photograph as it might be called, is
located just above the eyes, on the fore
head, and every outline OF the balloon is
boldly portrayed in purple lines in the
skin of the infant; even the patch on the
air ship can be seen, being produced by a
patch of white skin.

STORAGE BATTERIES.
Cost of Running Electric Street Cars in

IEIectrlcaI Review.

Electrical REVIEW
The storage battery electric cars have
now been IN regular passage service a lit
tie over two years in Brussels, and report
has just been prepared of the cost of motive
power during that time The motive
power includes the renewal Of batteries.
the wear and tear on motors and machi-
merry, the generating and storing of the
energy and repairs and requirements gem
eraliy-in fact, every element that can be
understood by an engineer to be motive
power.
1t has been found that the cost of mo-
tive power has been trife less than 8
cents per kiloIleter, or about cents per
car mile; in this, the cost of maintaining
the batteries has amounted to l 3-5 cents
per car mile.
1t may be of interest to know that the
estimate of the cost of motive power as
based on the experience of the Electric
Traction Company on the Fourth and
Madison avenues, New York, and pre-
pared prior to the report at Brussels
and without any knowledge of the
cost there, is within a fraction
of being the same The company
finds the cost of motive power on
Madison Avenue to be 53 cents per
mile. In the cost of motive power as es-
timated in New York, however. was in
cluded interest on investment, amounting
to IS cents, or 35 cents per mile net, in
cluding depreciation on battery, cost Of
generating current and handling of bat

IN beastly temper, for things had gone
wrong ever since morning, and now and

OF something TO kick as an outlet for his

demurely in, and calmly drawing a chair
up to the old gentleman's desk, smiled
sweetly.

Transposed Names at st. Mary's Hospital

There was a strange case of mistaken
identity at st. Mary's Hospital. Some
months ago an old woman, who went by
the name of Mccarthy and lived at West
Hoboken, but whose real name was Kuhn.
was taken to the hospital suffering from
chronic paralysis. She died on Tuesday
night, and on Wednesday morning Poor
master Klein, of West Hoboken, was in
formed of her death. He notified Under
taker +. Volk to take charge of the BODY
for burial, and it was accordingly re-
moved to his establishment. In the mean
time it was discovered that Mrs. McCar-
thy had q son residing somewhere near
Bayonne. He was notified of his mothers
death by messenger.
An error had been made in registering
the names on the Hospital
book, with a strange result. The dead
woman's name was Kuhn, but she had
been entered on the books as Mccarthy,
and Mrs. Mccarthy, the young mans
mother, who was also in the Hospital
sick, was entered On the book as Kuhn.
Young. Mccarthy gave up his work and
proceeded to have a last look at his
mothers features. Greatly agitated he
was ushered into the undertaker's store.
Lying on q slab covered by a cloth lay the
body. The covering was raised. The

a year to the States Golfers. Who would
recognize under that title the Peoples

York and Albany? Then there is the

a capital stock of $1,000, 900, it may be
doubted if they realized that they would
