tance than what he says on religious
view he said: 81 am a silver man. /

age. / want dollars worth of silver in
a silver dollar, and then the more silver
dollars we have the better. Gold is the
money of the creditor; the debtor wants

value why should gold be the money of
the creditor and silver the money of the
debtor? Is not pound of feathers as

How Long Electric Lights will Burn

Albany Democrat
The little incandescent lights that
illuminate so many of the business
houses and homes in Albany are worth
studying. The electric spark passing
through a film in vacuum causes the
light. The life of these films is remark
ably variable, some lasting only short
time and others a long time. The
longest lived one in this city is in No. 2's
engine house. 1t has run all night since
the system was begun here three years
ago, by computation IL 900 hours in all,
whereas, the general life of one is about
900 hours. This one was a 30-candle
power on starting and is now less than a
10-candle power.
