ODD ELECTRICAL INVENTIONS.
One is a Positive Failure and the Other
is of Doubtful Utility.
From the New York Mail and Express.

From the New York Mail and Express.
What will not our electrical inventors do
next? One of the ingenious members of the
New York electrical club has designed door
opener, which relieves the disguised traveller
or visitor from the necessity of showing a
heavy mass of wood with his hands or of wear
ing out the toes of his boots in kicking it back.
A metallic plate set in the floor foot from the
threshold is marked door opener" The caller
treads upon it in the same style as the peace
full street-car horse treads upon the clumsy
iron switch plates which now ornament
every street where this kind of loco
motion is in vogue. The plate yields quarter
inch to the pressure of the foot and forms a
circuit which Immediately starts tiny electro
motor that in turn opens the door, despite
door spring, air valve or counterweight. The
moment the visitor passes in the plate is thrown
back by a coied spring to its former position.
the circuit is broken and the door closes itself
with or without a resonant bang as may be de-
sired. With swing doors the plate is inset on
both sides of the portal. With double church
doors two pairs Of plates are arranged so that
the sexton can connect or disconnect each pair:
when the plates are connected the worshiper 8
foot opens both doors, but when disconnected,
only one.
Another electrical device of recent origin
has proved failure. This was a clever mech
anism which, when the current was turned on,
threw out perfect deluge of sparks and corus-
cations. These were intended to create ozone
and destroy all germs and impurities in the
air. The machine was very pretty as a curio.
1t was brilliant mass of metal inclosed in a
glass case and fastened to the wall near the
ceiling. At twilight, when the machinery WIS
in action, the effect was magical. From re-
volving plate or cylinder mass of flames shot
out increasingly, which illuminated the room
and cast the strangest lusters imaginable.
theoretically, the invention was all right;
practically it was otherwise. 1t heated the
air and produced queer odor of something
burning. 1t magnetized the watch-works,
knives, and keys of every one in the room, and
every now and then would run down or break
off. One used in the Tombs police court was
finally taken out in disgrace. The presiding
judge said that all he could see about the thing
was that it made the courtroom more disagree
able than ever and that it had put his watch
into such state that he could not tell within
an hour what time of the day it might be.

ATHLETIC GAMES.
The Washington Athletes who win Con
test In New York.


The indoor athletic games to be held in Mad
ison Square garden January 10 viii be of par
ticular interest here because number Of we'll
known Washington young men will take part
in them. The Columbia athletic club will send
the following representatives: Seventy-fve
yard dash, Messrs. 8. J. King, Chas. H. Mills
and Louis T. Ried; 40 yard dash, Messrs.
King, Mills, Ried and Elder; 40, Messrs. King,
Ried and Kenyon, standing broad jump, ]. R. FL
der; $50 yard run, Messrs. King and Harlan; 22O
yards hurdle, Mr.. L. L. Harlan, and the mile
run, J. NJ. Kenyon. The bicycling of the club
will be represented by Messrs. W. E. Crist, p.
s. Brown and ]. L. Barber.
As there will probably be good many en-
tries in each event, trial heats will be given
during the day Of the 18th and the races run
OF at night. There is little doubt but that the
seventy-five yard dash will be between White,
OF the Manhattan club, and King, of the Column
bias. Messrs. Ried and Mills, who are also
entered in this event, will make a good show
ing. The two-hundred-and-twenty yard dash
will be between King and White while the
four enthusiastically will also find King
pushing the leader. II the handicap is not too
great King will undoubtedly win.
Elder, the best jumper of The Columbias, is
strong favOrite among the club men for the
standing broad jump, and will make the New
Workers stretch themselves to beat him. Mr.. l..
L. Harlan, who won the hurdle race at the
Fall games on Analostan Islands, fast runner
and good jumper. He hopes to come back with
gold stop-watch.
Kenyon, who is entered in the one-mile run.
is good slayer, and, judging from his per-
Torrance last fall when he walked away from
the mile runners on Analostan island, he will
make a formidable antagonist
w. E. Crist, P. s. Brown and L. j. Barber
will turn the wheels of their machines in the
two-mile handicap bicycle race, and one of
them will surely win. The others will be close
up.

1t appears from the treasurer's annualreport
to the Psychic Research society that spook in
vestigation has been so popular fad among
those here and elsewhere, who have weakness
for such things, as to have brought the sum of
S2,42S, % into the treasury. Most of this money
is subscribed by persons anxious to see the So

and ghostly realms. The annual meeting to-
night was largely attended, a fair proportion of

has been delving into the mysteries of phan-

siders telepathy myth.
Alleged cases of 'telepathic" experience, in
which person sees or feels that some friend
at a distance is suffering or in danger Prof.
Royce would generally set down as mere COIN
cidences. At any rate, in spite Of the vast
number Of such cases received by the commit
tee, the professor thinks that the existence of
telepathy has not yet been established A
large number Of stories of presentments sent
in by people everywhere were read, the most
interesting one being that of st. Louis drum
mer, who, one night, in a st. Joe hotel, saw the
apparition of his dead sister with scar on her
beautiful face. Returning to his home in ST.
Louis he learned from his mother that in pre-
pairing her daughter for burial, she had acct
dentally SCARED her face, and had covered the
scar by means Of q powder.

convinced OF the uprightness and loyalty of
her intentions. and that for his own part he
was firmly resolved to do nothing to disturb
the friendly relations between the two coun-
tries.
Many hadendowas who have arrived at Sua-
