so that the interior makes but little diff
ference.
A good large surface is needed, and
iron rods are just as good as if not better
than copper. The old idea of a copper
rod to earth. large enough not to become
over heated, would be correct if the light
ming were a direct current as formerly
held. But for its rapid surgings there
must not only be the conductor, but sur
face TO it and good grounds; furthermore,
all large bodies of metal in the building
must be connected to it, or, better, pro-
yided with independent grounds. In
fact, there is no perfect safety from light
ming because of the large area over which
the ether is disturbed.
For the individual the safest place is
the center of the room on the floor; there
he is tarthest removed from the most di-
rect path of the ether's violent surging.-

LORENZBR'S LOAN.
Justice Henry Concludes 1t Was Not
Properly Obtained.

properly ODAalueus
The case of II. Lorenzer, charged with
obtaining money under false pretenses,
came up for examination in Justice
Henry's court yesterday afternoon.
J. E. Krumb, the complainant, testified
that on the 10th OF January the defendant
met him in the corridor of the Capitol
and asked him if he was shaving war
rants. Witness was acting as agent for
ii. \. HornIein in lending money, and so
told the defendant. Lorenzer then told
him that he was appointed Clerk of the
Committee on Water Rights, and went
with him into one of the committee
rooms, opposite the Controllers Office,
and signed and delivered 10 him a power
of attorney to draw his two weeks pay
as clerk of that committee, and Krumb
cave him Sol so. The next day, Krumb
Said. he learned that LorenZer was not
and never had been clerk of any commit
fee. hut he did not see him again for some
tirne. and when he did he caused his ar
rest.
The defense was set up that Lorenzer
told Krumb he had been promised the
clerkship and fully expected to get it,
lint it turned out that he was disap-
pointed in his ambition. He intended no
traud when he borrowed the money.
The evidence was such, however, that
Jnstice Henry held him to appear before
the Superior Court, and fixed his bail at
$500

Lightning and Lightning Rods,

For buildings in cities, except churches
and other high structures, rods, L think,
are unnecessary. Lightning strikes sell
dom in the cities compared with the
country, one reason being that the many

he continued, ''rll tell you that, in my
opinion, it has not gone anywhere. I
think it is here-au about u.s. We are
daily breathing comet, sneezing comet,
and feeling comet. We can't see it. and
probably don't smell it, but when the
astronomers lost it l think it was because
we ran into it, or it over US, before we
knew it. This cold and unsettled weather
throughout the world must be due to the
presence in our path of vapor that abb
serbs or intercepts the heat of the sun.
You know some of the savants of the
skies said the comet was only a vapor
spread throughout a mighty area of space,
luminous by absorption or reflection at
great distance from us, but invisible if
about us, and contained not enough solid
matter to make handful. I believe we

STANDING BY THE PARTY.

When a Convention fairly represent
Ing n political party makes free and
deliberate choice of n nominee for a
public office. IL Is conceded to he the
duty of loyal members of the party to
support him in good faith. although he
may not be the candidate some OF them
would have preferred had their wishes
prevailed. But II is notorious that
Judge Maynard was not the choice Of
u Convention honestly representative Of
the Democratic party. that he was
forced upon the ticket by the orders OF
a few leaders. and that his nomination
was not made in the interest either OF
tho public or the organization, but as a
personal reward for a partisan service
OF which the debating leaders were the
principal benefciaries.
Unde these circumstances. the cleo
ton OF Judge Maynard would not be a
Democratic triumph. neither would his
defeat be n Democratic disaster. Those
who may choose to vote against him
cannot justly be accused OF treason to
the Democratic organization. They are
not the enemies of Democracy, but
rather Its best friends. inasmuch as they
seek to shield II from the commission
OF a serious blunder. They owe Judge
Maynard no allegiance. He is not a
Democratic principle. not a Democratic
platform. not a Democratic plank. He
has no claim or title to the support of a
Democrat simply because his name has
been placed on the ticket at the dictation
OF a few bosses who. while they have
the power to compel his nomination,
cannot blind the eyes OF the people to
his record nor force them to cast their
ballots for him at the polls.
The fight against Judge Maynard is
not a Republican fight. not a Mug
wunp night, not an anti-Democratic
fight. 1t is a fight within the party
lines. and led by some OF the leading
Democrats In the organization. Gov.
Flowers contention that to stand by
Maynard is to stand by the party" is
a fallacy. Many thousands OF sturdy
Democrats, whose fidelity to Democratic
principles is not open to doubt, believe
that to vote against Maynard and thus
to save the Democracy from the stigma
OF his election to the Bench is the very
best way of standing by he party" an
honest Democrat can pursue.
