Night Sight for Heavy Guns.

The electric night sight for heavy guns,
which was introduced some time ago, has
now been adopted by the navies of nearly
every important nation. The fore sight
consists of socket which fits onto the
ordinary day sight and which carries a
small electric lamp inside it. The light
given BY the lamp serves to illuminate a
small glass cone which forms the tip of the
fore sight. The rear sight Is constructed
on the same principle; but the illumination
in this case extends to wire placed over the
lamp. This wire forms the cross of the

lamps is usually provided by a three-cell

ELECTRICAL ADVANCE.
The New Incandescent Lamp Attract
ing Worldwide Attention.
NIGHT SIGHT FOR HEAVY GUNS.
An Entirely New Process for the Decoration
Of Metal objects.
A CHECK PUT TO BOGUS APPLIANCES
WRITTEN FOR THE DISPATCH,


A sensation has been produced in electri-
cal circles by the advent of the new West
inghouse incadescent lamp, which is said to
be no Infringement of the Edison claim,
which has lately been finally sus-
tanned in the United States Courts The
lamp is unquestionably new departure in
SO far that it is separable-that is, that the
filament can be removed and the bulb used
over again. Another point of difference
from the ordinary lamp is the composition
of the material from which the leading-in
wires are made. In all the ordinary glow
lamps this material is platinum, but in the
new lamp an alloy is used the composition
of which is kept secret. Regarding the i'm
portant matter of the flament of the lamp
no information is vouchsafed, and this
omission has been adduced as affording evil
dence of possible weakness in the mainte-
nance of the new patent against the Edison
claim.
BY way of illustrating this possible
contingency, an English electrical journal
cites case that occurred some five or six
years ago. A lamp was brought to England
from the United States, the filament of
which was said to contain sutfic lent guam
tity of aluminium to render it independent
of the Edison claim, The inventor asked
$780, for the patent, and negotiations
were entered into between him and some of
the leading English electrical firms for the
purchase of the patent rights. Pending
these negotiations the inventor sent an
agent to Germany and Aus tria with q view
to disposing Of the patent rights in those
countries. In Austria one of the most in
huential firms at once declared their wiling
ness to buy; but only on one condition
namely, that they should be allowed to
break one of the lamps and to submit the
flament to careful chemical analysis. The
agent. fully confident from the analysis of
one of the most eminent English chemists
that the filament of the lamp contained
satisfactory percentage of aluminium, freely
granted the request, asking only that he
shonld be allowed to be present when the
tests were made.
One OF the lamps was marked, and every
particle of the slender thread was carefully
collected and ignited to white heat in
platinum crucible. Scarcely q trace of
residue was left behind, and not ves-
tige of aluminium could be found in
this residue. The filament was carbon,
pure and simple. The agent coald only re-
tire in confusion and vent his Indignation
on the inventor who had sent him on such
a fools errand. The journalwhich thus illus
trates the uncertainty that hovers around
new patents recommends that the new
lamp flament be similarly treated. That
it should stand such test is earnestly to be
wished, for the result would be that the
public would henceforth be able to buy its
lncadescent lamps at less than one halt their
present cost.

amount of moral courage will be seen from
the fact that more than 100 applications Of

THE NOMINEES FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

Two Of the men nominated on the San

known in this county; people of sense
blocking after their affairs closely, will
not vote for unknown men to be placed

The Republican nominees, Messrs. Dud-
row, Kendall and Ortega, are well known,
honorable business men and property
owners; on the other hand the
nominations of two men on the
Democratic ticket were made for sin
lister purposes, and because the bosses
think that if elected, they will have tools
in office.
No man who pays taxes on real or per-
sonal property in this county or who has
any business in this county can afford to
vote for the Democratic nominees as
against the Republican nominees.
The good reputation and excellent
character of the Republican nominees is
proof that if elected they will give this
county a strong, economical, honest and
efficient government, What a Democratic
majority in the county board might do
can only be conjectured and the conjec-
lures are none too favorably to them
