The Color of Electricity.

At meeting of the British Meteoro-
logical society at London, Shelford Bid
well made a remarkable experiment.,
showing the effects of electricity upon
steam. 1t is well known fact that the
shadow of q jet of steam cast upon any
white background under ordinary cir
cumstances is of feeble intensity and Of
a neutral tint But, however, if the jet
be given discharge of electricity just
at the moment when it comes in contact
with the air, the density of the shadow
is amazingly increased as result of con-
densation, and it assumes peculiar
orange brown hue with lines and waves
merging into inky blackness.
Mr.. Bidwell, the only person to my
knowledge who has ever made these ex-
periments scientifically, suggests that
the electricity promotes coalescence of
the exceedingly minute particles of wa
ter contained in the jet of steam, thus
forming drops large enough to obstruct
the more refrangible rays of light, but
why the color Of the shadow should
change from neutral to shades of at least
three well defined colors he does not at
tempt to explain. From one of his late
articles I gather ideas which point to the
intense blackness of thunderclouds be-
ing due to similar causes.-St. Louis Re
public.

ARLINGTON.

The Sunday Budget has the following:
This quiet little village is just now dis
cussing the latest sensation in this
place. 1t is the attempt made by Mrs.
James Murtha, wife of a resident of this
place, to kill herself, Wednesday last.
She made desperate attempt and would
have succeeded had it not been for the
timely rescue by some of the neighbors.
Mr.. Mnrtha and wife live in the suburbs
of the village and he is employed as a
bridge builder. Wednesday last he had
job on a bridge in the village. He
wanted his wife to yet him some break
fast but this she did not do as she did
not get up in time for Murtha to get to
his work, so he got his own breakfast
and went away. About nine o'clock in
the forenoon, Mrs. Murtha went to the
bridge where her husband was employed
and wanted him to come and split some
wood so that she could get the breakfast.
This Murtha would not do and his wife
went away. She went to the house, but
did not stay there long, for she was soon
seen going toward the Roaring
Branch" as the stream lying across the
fields from her home is called. Her two
little children followed her screaming at
the top of their voices, and this attracted
the attention Of some neighbors, who,
thinking that all was not right, followed
her. Mrs, Murtha fastened her steps
and reached the brink of the stream in
advance of her pursuers and leaped into
the raging waters. She fell among rocks
and in water deep enough to drown her
had she not been taken out Leonard
Meers and his sister saw the woman
make the leap, and Mr. Meers rescued
her after a desperate struggle. Mrs.
Murtha was unconscious when she was
taken from the water, and it was some
time before she was restored to con-
seriousness. She was asked by Miss
Meers why she did the rash act, and she
replied, ITO get out of my trouble"
Her husband was sent for, and he had
her taken to his home. This is the sec
ond time she has attempted to take her
life within year. The other time she
jumped into the river and was rescued
by her husband. 1t is said that domes-
tic trouble is the cause of her attempts
to take her life. After she had been re-
moved to her home Wednesday and was
pronounced out of danger, Murtha went
to his work. He had scarcely reached
the bridge when he saw the man who is
said to be the cause of his trouble, ap-
prOdcnlnB INC uOuse' M vi Ind dSkeu Ills
employer what he would do if he was in
Murtha's place, and the employer said
he would go to the house and tell the
man to get ou-, and if he didn't he would
help him. Murtha concluded to do this,
and as the disturber entered the house,
he was followed by Murtha. "Well,"
said Murtha, $50 you have come to see
the corpse, have you? There she lies on
the lounge, and III give you just two
minutes to look at it, then want you to
get out of the house and never darken
my doors again" AS he said this he
seized heavy chair and raised it as
though to strike. The visitor did not
wait long enough to look at the corpse,
but fed quickly. The affair has been
the talk Of the town ever since the oc-
| currence.
