der the auspices of the Maine drummers
and committees from the citizens and
several of our clubs.
1t was the plot of the Dominion drum
mers to catch this town sleeping. They
had arranged train for $50 persons and
were intending to take along Mayor Nc
Shane and contingent of prominent
inent Montrealers and drop into Port
land unheralded. But our travelling men

for great reception next Friday. To
begin the work they have appointed the
following reception committee:

whole will add committee and Mayor
Ingraham will call a special meeting of
the city government to raise committees
of that body. 1t is also thought that the
Montgomery Guards, who have received
Inequalities in Montreal, may join.
1t is proposed to meet the visitors at
the depot with a band Friday noon, and
escort them to City Hall, where Mayor
Ingraham will deliver an address of vel
come. In the afternoon the guests will
be shown over the city, and variously en-

New Electrical Facts.

. In the realm of electricity recent in.
.vestigations have conf rmed the sus-
pected connection between electric
ity, magnetism, light and radiant
heat. They have also given a
new impulse to speculations as to
to the structure of matter altogether
and the modes of transmission of en-
ergy. Prof. Hertz, an eminent German
investigator, by an ingenious contriv.
ance termed rejecting board, discov-
cred that electrical waves are transmit
ted through the air exactly as luminous
or sound vibrations are, and that cleo
tricity is propagated like heat and light
at some measurable speed. In his ex-
periments the professor produced dis
charges at the rate of thirty million
times in a second in order to measure
the distances at which electrical waves
followed each other. Electromagnetic
waves act very much as light does, some
bodies transmitting and others reflect.
ing them. A plate of zinc acts upon
them as a mirror and sends them
back, but they pass through a wooden
door just as light does through glass. II
is also probable that magnetism obeys
in it's transmission the same laws as
electricity, but that the direction of its
vibrations is perpendicular to the line

New YORK on Wheels.

It is estimated that twenty thousand
men and women over 81 years old own
and ride bicycles in New York city and
Brooklyn. There are more than that
number of younger cyclists, SO that it is
fair to guess that the total foots up
somewhere in the neighborhoed of 5O,-
900. The machines, big and little, old
and new, are worth an average of $75
each. That alone is en- investment of
So, $50, 900. There are about forty BIZ
cycle clubs in the two cities, and they
must represent an investment in real
estate and furnishings of at least $4,000
each-some of them less, some of them
a good deal more. That adds $3.50, 900
to the S3,75O, 900 and gives total in
vested in wheeling and it's adjuncts in
New York and Brooklyn of $3,s70,00O.
If the number of wheelmen in nearby
New Jersey towns, who really help tc
make up Gotham's big bicycle group
were added to the estimates the army
would doubtless muster 10000 and the
investments reach S5,OOO,OOO.

DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS.
FOR PRESIDENT,
GROVER CLEVELAND, of New York.
FOR vICE-PRESIDENT,
ADLAI E. STEVENSON. of Illinois.

THE factory act of 1890, in India, was
passed at the earnest request of a large
number of spirited persons both in Eng
land and India, with the intent of
giving some measure of relief to the
oppressed women and children working
IN the East India mills. By this it was
provided that there should be no work
on Sunday, and that work for women
and minors during the other days in the
week should be limited to eleven hours,
with recesses of an hour and half,
making the hours of actual work nine
and one-half per diem. The complaint
is made tina: this law has become practi-
cally dead letter, the mill owners fail
ing to observe it and the government
inspectors taking care to ignore their
violations. The consequence is that,
according to reports, the women and
children in India are worked twelve and
half hours a day, exclusive of meal
times, for seven days in each week,
with the wear upon the physical and
mental system which such continuous
strain cannot fail to produce.

SECRETARY OF STATE FOSTER gives in
dications of having an attack of lingo
ism." No one is surprised; the attack
has been expected ever since he entered
the cabinet. 1t is part and parcel of the
scheme to get up foreign war scare as
bid for votes for Harrison and Reid.
The only difficulty has been in finding a
weak country that would give the ad.
ministration q chance to bully it until
after election. Turkey, which is GER
tainly weak enough to be bullied by any
government, is the victim selected, the
special occasion being the recent burn
ing of the house of DIR Bartlett, an
American missionary in Asia Minor.
SECRETARY Foster admits that similar
troubles have occurred before in the
dominions of the sultan, but q
national compaign being now pend
I ing, he proceeds to figuratively chew
soap, in order to foam at the mouth
while he informs the wide-eyed news
paper men, who visit the department OF
state, IN his heaviest tragedy voice that
81 have cabled demand for indemnity
and for the punishment of the guilty
parties" Secretary Fosters demand il
like that made by Rudini, the Italian
premier, upon this government, jus

AI,ost Art Revived.

One of the most wonderful discoveries
Cf recent years Is that made by poor
blacksmith of Quebec NAMED Ferdinand
Allard. It is the long host art known
to the pyramid builders of Egypt, OF
hardening copper. Axes and other
edged tools of hardened copper have
been exhibited by him, which In edge
and temper rival the best'steel of the
present. A1lard prepared atsheet of his
hardened copper. one and three-quarter
lines in thickness, and hadsi it tested at
the government rifle range at Quebec.
At the first shot fred from forty yards
distance, the, bullet was by its impact
with the plate shivered into,a thousa nd
Fragments; ron the second the missile,
striking the copper more fairly, was
completely Aattened, but remained Inn
bedded in the plate, which it merely
ENTHUSIASTICALLY, not cracking it in any
way. This is said by experts to be
vastly superior to anything the best
steel could do under like circumstances
and the m after is to be brought under
the immediate notice of the present
lords of the Admiralty. The leading
military authorities,of Canada express
the opinion that if on further trials il
