ELECrtsICAL NOTES.

The Charlottesville Va & Universe
ty Electric Light Co. has let contract
to NJ. NJ. Spooner for the erection of q
building for its new plant.
Since 1879, when Edison tried few
experimental lamps In Menlo Park,
the electrlc.lighting plants have
spread everywhere, and in this ceun-
try alone over 125, 900 arc and ], ZOO, 900
incsndescent lamps are burned, and
more than $I20, 600, 900 is invested In
the plants.
A project is on foot TO build an cleo
trio railroad between Houston and
Galveston, Texas. Mr.. McGoldrick,
of San Antonio, is interested in the
matter, and Kansas City capitalists
have signIfied their willingness to
put half million dollars in if the
matter is carried through on q busi-
ness basis. Local capitalists will
take an interest, and large donations
of land will be made by parties along
the proposed line.
Work has been commenced in Bal
timore on what is believed to be the
first elevated road way built, especial.
ly for an electric railway. The Lake
builder, and the elevated structure is
necessary in order to reach the city
hall over route which for some dis
lance is occupied by the tracks of the
Northern Central railroad.
The most powerful electric locomo-
tive yet used are two new ones of the
London underground railway. Each
locomotive, according to description
by Mr.. Alexander Siemens, carries
two motors, and the use of all gearing
is obviated by winding the armatures
of the motors on the axles of the loco
motive wheels, Tests of the four mo-
tors before they were fitted to their
places gave from 40 to so horse power
each for three of them, the other being
much more powerful, aud efficiencies of
about 80 to "a per cent. Each locomo.
tive fully equipped weighs Is IL tons
and it's uplosded train weighs twenty
one tons, full load being ninety.six
passengers. The average power of
each locomotive requires current of
not more than fifty amperes, althoI gh
in starting as much as 40 amperes
must be had.

Household Hints.


If you, wish to keep Gran berries for
several months put them In crooks or
jars and cover with water.
To mend large holes in stockings or
merino underwear tack a piece of net
over the rent and darn through 1t.
Never try to stiffen the whites OF
eggs In a steamy kitchen. Take them
to an open window, where they may
be beaten quite stiff in q short while.
One may have almost anything
now in bsmbo There are graceful
cabinets with shelves and q glass
above, a cupboard and three shelves
below; hall stands for hats and
cloaks, sideooards. newspaper stands,
tea tables with flaps at the sides,
writing tables and overmant tells with
mirror in center.
1t lie often difficult in small rooms
to find accommodation for evening
and best dresses. One woman has
contrived q wooden box on casters,
fitting underneath the bed. long
enough to take evening dresses folded
almost at full length. The box is not
quite as wide as the bed, and it can
be drawn out easily by means of q
handle,

A Claimants Jubilee,
From the Pail Mall Gazette.

From the Pail Mall Gazette. - i
The jubilee of a "cabby" must be q
very rare occurrence. To drive q cab
city Is not generally conductive to
longevity, as statistics, we believe,
will prove. Perhaps this is why such
great honors were paid TO viii helm
Muller, the Berlin Gao driver, No.
1855, on his 18th birthday, and his
fiftieth anniversary of his license as q
public Jehu. The old gentleman,
who still occasionally plies his whip,
is fine specimen of healthy
optimism. "Chidren," said he, In q
speech to his colleagues, never be in
q panic, whatever happens. !

the cab business would soon

on the box the omnibuses were Ia

now comes the electric railway. ]
have seen them all start, and here we
are, as sound as ever" The point
upon which he laid the most stress
after the indestructibls vitality Of
the cab, was the marvellous i'm.
provement Of the roads. Fifty years
ago." he said, 1--WE had to roll and
jolt, up and down, to aud fro, over
round-hesded cobbles. Now we skim
along over asphalt, India rubber and
wood, as II we were enjoying our.
selves upon skating rink" He
boosted that he knew Berlin better
than any other man in it, which Is
possibly true. There are not many
men in any European city, we
imagine, who have worked daily at
the same calling for a whole half CEN
fury.

Moss agates are growing in favor
Fifty years ago these stones. with
their bits of captive moss. were held
in high esteem, and many long

of blue In their composition.
In the higher fields of jswelry the
emerald reigns at present. Green Is
the caprice of the hour, and carries
all before it. Colored pearls have
turned down the hill of popularity,
and the assorted white ones, of old
time favor, have again ingratiated
themselves into the esteem of the
public. Silver is fast declining for
jewelry, but still holds sway in the
bric-a-brac and small articles of ser.

more in demand.

sang Whittier in his autumnal
psalm.
Somewh hat less common, as we'll as
less beautiful, are two or three other
varieties Of this flower found in New
England. The FIVE lowered gentian
is the prettiest of these. and belongs
to the same class as the fringed. 1t
is q delicate plant much smaller In
size, and crowded with upright
branches hugging close to the main
stalk. The flowers, in groups OF from
two to three to seven or more, termi-
nate the stalk and each of the
branchee; they are somewhat less
than an inch in length, club shaped.
and with the sharp-pointed lobes or
teeth OF the corolla turned In to form
point which opens but shyly. The
abundance of its bloom and the mod
esty of its appearance make the lit
tie flower quite attractive.
The closed gentian is another and
rather singular variety, lacking both
the grace and the beauty of the other.
1t is, however, interesting from the
peculiar character of Its blossoms and
from their bright blue color. They
occur in clusters at the termination of
the stems, seated close upon the lance
shaped foliage. They are long, hol-
low tubes in shape, not standing up
right but pointing in various direc-
lions, and showing no inclination to
open. The plant is as large as that o.,
the fringed gentian' or larger, and
grows under similar conditions.
The gentians are charming floral
visitors, and q walk which results in
handful of them for the vaseis we'll

Caution TO Housekeepers.

Housekeepers are warned against
the California cold process" of fruit
canning. Prof. E. W. Hilgard, di.
rector of the California University
Experiment Station, has issued circu-
lars repudiating the "cold process"
and warning persons against the use
of the compound extract" advertis-
ed. The health of the household
finds q new menace in the increased
use of powerful drugs in the preser-
walton of food. Salicyclic acid boracic
are now in extensive use. Manufac-
turers of mincemest put up wet in
cans or jars are using such acids, and
they are also put into vegetables,
pickles aud preserves. The New
Jersey State Board oil Health has
condemned this practice. One of its
mem bers, Albert r. Leeds, recently
called attentio through the Phila-
delphia Ledger to the extensive use
of the dangerous drug. He says:
Medical authorities ascribe. to salicy-
lie acid five different kinds of toxic
action. It's influence in producing
difficulty of breathing and palpita-
ton of the heart is so marked that it
should be q rule never to prescribe 1t
as q medicine in case of heart or lung
troubles. The drug is principally
used for rheumatic disorders. Con-
sidering that there are methods of
preservation which render its use un-
necessary, that it's action is cumula-
tive, and that article after article of
food may be taken, each of which
contains it. the safe plan would be
TO restrict the useof this drug to me-
