ELECTRIC LIGHT IN l6z0.-About
the year 1870, DIR, Wall, of England,
first observed the existence of electric
light, and suggested the resemblance
between electricity and lightning.
He had a rude machine made out OF a
solid stick of sulphur, which on re-
volving gave out a phosphorescent
light, and all of his energies were at
first applied to the invention ofan inn
proved apparatus for rendering this
hight available for Illuminating pur-
poses. Otto Van Guencke also had
the same idea in his mind, and all the
early physicist were intent on finding
some way of rendering the new light
available. The discovery of electro
magnetism, followed by the inven'
ton of the telegraph, diverted the at
tention of investigators into different
paths. Recently, however, the whole
world has started off in search Of
electric light, with every prospect OF
bringing it under control. Frank

DEMANDS OF THE ALLIANCE.
WASHINGTON. Noy. 1T

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE
Democrats are growing anxious over
the attitude Of the Farmers Alliance
members of the next House. The
Democrats claim that they will have
a majority without the alliance men,
tiers, but they are anxious to concili.
ate them and encourage he alliance
SO that it will keep up its organiza-
ton ia 1892. lu the Western States
the members OF the alliance come
almost Wholly from the Republican
party, while IN the South they are
nearly all Democrats. But the Dem
0crats can wiz III the south, regard
less OF the alliance, on the race issue
and The mere process of counting,
providing the present Congress does
not pass the Federal elections bill.
All they need further is TO keep the
Republicans divided in the West.
But already tue alliance officials
are talking of nominating a canci
date for President in 1892. This
would compiieate the situation, and
the Democratic leaders are anxious
to prevent that from being done,
and at the same time to keep the
alliance in line with the Democrats
in the next House. To do that they
will have to pass several measures
which the alliance demands in the in,
terest Of the faemers. The principal
Que of these is large increase in
the currency.
If the Democrats refuse to meet
their pledges to the alliance, they
will have TO face separate nomina,
tons by the alliance in 1892, and if
they do pass bills such as those de.
manded by the alliance, the business
interests of the country will be SO
disturbed and alarmed as to threaten
disaster to the Democratic party.
That is the way the matter looks to
some of the Democrats now in Wash.
ington and they are not little
troubled over the situation.
Mr.. Mills, Of Texas, refused to ap.
prove the Sub Treasury scheme, and
for that reason he may be opposed
by the alliance for Speaker. Sena'
tor German and some other Demo
Gratis are very much troubled, and
they are already buSiIy scheming to
checkmate the alliance by securing
the election of a Speaker who Will
prevent the passage of alliance bill.

In 1878 he purchased the grocery bust

until year ago. when the clothing de-
