The Wheelbarrow Test.

Three or four of us on the car were
talking about General Sherman's
death, and, as might have been expect
ed, one OF the group modestly admit
ted that he was with the lamented
general in his famous march to thesea.
There was woman in the seat ahead,
surrounded by bundles and baskets,
and evidently going somewhere on a
visit. The war talk soon stirred her
up, and she soon turned to the veteran
and queried:
'Were you right in battle?"
"Yes'm."
Dead men all around?"
"Yes'm."
Wounded crying for water?"
"Yes'm."
"Bombshells and cannon balls fall
ing around you like hail?"
"Yes'm."
"And you didn't run?"

Moody's Boyhood,

Those who have heard Mr.. Moody
tell the story of his life win appreciate
this from the Boston Transcript: 1.-THE
picture OF the small boy Moody leav-
ing his home because the funds of the
family were too straitened to support
them all comfortably; his departure
for the place in the country which his
brother had obtained for him, there
to do the work needed on farm, his
homesickness and despair, and his
sitting down by the way to have a
good cry'-these are the shadows.
''The light thrown on the canvas
came from the kind-hearted man who
had made point of giving cent to
every new boy who arrived in town.
The cent was given, one of the old
fashioned, generous ones, and so
bright and shining that it looked to
the child's eyes like gold.
"But better far than the coin was
the act of the same man when he
gently lifted the boys cap and laid his
hand upon his head, giving him a
hearty God bless you' The action
OF mind upon mind is mystical, inf
mite. Who can compute the results of
that blessing on that youthful head?
Mr.. Beecher has well said: Men need
brotherhood and sympathy as mnch
as they need the loaf The soul is
often hungrier than the body and no
shop can sell it food"

Bank Cars.

New Zealand has set an example
which might adyantageously be fol-
lowed in certain parts OF this country.
In the same way as we have "cathe-
dral cars it has "traveling banks"
A clerk, representing the bank, travels
up and down a railway line for trans
action of the ordinary business of the
bank with those who have not suf-
ficient facilities for coming into the
city. Laden with satchel contain
ing his supply OF cash, and provided
with teller's usual precautions
against robbery, the clerk makes the
carriage his headquarters, and there
receives visits from customers at the
way stations, changing checks or TAX
ing deposits as occasion may require.
This plan is said to prove profitable
to the bank and n great convenience
to the settlers, who are saved all the
trouble of journeying to town to re-
lieve themselves of surplus money or
to procure change. 1t is not difficult,
however, to see that the New Zealan-
ders are not properly educated in the
matter OF train robbery.

that by the use of one of his dyno-

arrival.
Electricity is now taking the place
OF gas, but the change is made far less
rapidly in London than in even the
cues OF comparatively small popula-
ton IN this country.
The Coming Power OF Electricity.
A great deal is said in these DAYS
about the coming power of electricity,
and that it is to supplant that OF
steam. In certain sense this may
be true, but to those not familiar with
the generation Of this new force the
statement may be misleading in Great
ing the impression that the electrical
force may be created independently of
steam or some other source Of power.
1t must be borne in mind, SAYS the
Tradesman, that electricity is simply
a convenient means of transmit
ting power, wire only being
necessary to take the place of shaft
ing, betting or wire cable. AS in all
methods OF transmission, more or
less power is lost, by friction and part
resistance in the wires to the pas
sage OF the fluid. This loss, we are
informed, ranges from 20 to
40 per cent of the originating
power at the dynamo. Water
power is frequently available, but
whether water or steam be used it is
seen that all the power developments
on an electric line must be first con-
centrated in one plant, and enough
added to cover the waste which we
have mentioned. So, after all, the
new power has only the effect to CEN
tralize steam power and make de
mand for a few large engines in
place Of many smaller ones, and at
the same time TO render the economy
OF fuel much more perfect.
Electricity for Drilling Oil Wells.
Electricity is now being employed in
this part of the country in the process
of drilling oil wells, says the Pittsburg
correspondent OF the Western electric
ian. This new electrical device, for
which patent has been granted to
one Wesley Webber, has the object OIL
entirely supplanting the heavy too
and performing in scientific manner
/ the work which has hitherto been &C
complished in a very crude way. The
device is composed OF a series Of
I motors, placed in tandem and con
nected one toanother, so as to practi
/ cally form one motor. The reason
for using the motor in tandemis to get
I the power within a six-inch diameter
so that the entire mechanism, which
/ looks like a common boiler, can b,
lowered in the well and the power APP
| piled direct at the bottom which il
the true plane of resistance in "mak
ing a hole Projecting from THU
motor tandem is a rod, which re
sembles piston rod working in anC
out OF the cylinder; upon this rod tn,
drill bits are firmly fastened and thel
the apparatus is lowered into the wei
in the ordinary manner. The mechan
1 ical construction and action OF the ap
paratus is a close resemblance to thu
street car motor. A number OF test
made with the electric oil well-drille
were pronounced entirely successful
