Aluminium in the Electric Arts.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat
The Electrical Engineer of October
s contains an interesting article on
the prospective place of aluminium in
the electric arts. If cheaper it would
to large extent displace copper and
other metals in electrical construc-
destined to have q widely extend
ed use. The economic relations of
the various metals are under
going rapid changes. The status in
the electric art is vastly different
from what it was five years ago.
Purer copper is now required and OBJ
tanned. For contacts brass has given
place to German silver. and the latter
to platinum, owing to the largely in
creased use of it for the leading.in
wires of iAcandescent lamps and 9TH
or electrical purposes, has recently
trebled in price. Aluminium is des-
tined, the Engineer thinks, to play
an impor tant part in electro technics.
Though selling at 81 pound, its nom
corrroding properties must bring
it into use for electric contacts on a
large scale. LIS lightness, strength
and conducting properties are strong
points in its favor. Aluminium
of a given bulk is less than one
third as heavy as copper, and at
the same time nearly twice as
good conductor of electricity. For
overhead work its advantages are
apparent. At its present price it
could be substituted with advantage
for other heavier metals in the con-
struction of various practical appli-
ances. The trolley wheel and trolley
pole of the electric car, for example
might be mazda of this light metal.
so of parts of the truck, motor, etc.
Great advances in electro-teclinics
are constantly being made, and alu-
minimum is destined to play an active
part in the improvements of the
future.

The Forging of Pictures.

From the London Architect.
Theophile Gautler maintained that
at least three-fourths of the works
which are accepted as coming from
Rubens and Vandyke are apocryphal,
for thirty modern artists could not
complete as much as the two Flem-
ings are said to have dashed off in
occasional intervals of labor. The
ist painter, shows how easily an
organization can be perfected for
the fabrication of pictures, however
much individuality there may be in
the style. The painter, who had fled
to Geneva, became alarmed about the
consequences of this freak of demo-
lition, and he expected that he would
have to restore the column in the
Palace Vendome at his own expense.
In his anxiety to obtain funds he be-
gan great many pictures, at which
he worked until the eve of his death.
These pictures were completed by
the pupils, some of them having
the power of closely initiating
the masters style. 1t was not
difficult to go step further,
and the forgeries became so close
that one was accepted by the jury of
the International Exhibition as Cour-
bets work. 1t so happened that a
few genuine works were to be OBJ
tanned oy the imitators. Two distil-
lers, who were friends of Courbet, de-
cided to get up shop in some foreign
| town where the customers would
have the additional satisfaction of adj
mlring pictures by the artist. The
venture did not prosper, and Courbet's
works were dispersed. The trade in
limitations then increased, and NJ.
Eugene Courbet declares that at pres
emit he knows six artists who are oc-
cupied in counterfeising his cousins
works. 1t is difficult to punish them,
as they avoid copying Coutbet's sig
nature, and therefore it Is said there
is no crime committed. The trade
could easily be suppressed if buyers
would exercise more caution; but so
long as every amateur believes he is
infallible in his Judgment, the forger
OF pictures must prosper.

THE emperor of Austria is among
the number of those who do not APP
prove of judicial murder and recently
refused to sign death warrant that

to this, in.time, among the crowned
heads and chief magistrates of repub-
lies. Then judicial murder will die
out, and human life will be more re-
spected than it is.

THE situation in Texas politically,

to. The remedy for that condition OF
things is Matching.

THE New York Central railway in
blacklisting the knights of Labor has
not gained in public confidence. The
officials claim wrecking on the part
of the knights, and the president of
the road, Chauncey Depew, exhoner-
ates the Knights from this charge.
1t is simple case of organized labor
versus organized capital, and the
capital blacklists the labor for organ
izing.
