One of the strict Est rules Of the Of

Only a few days ago two young men
were sitting at one desk opposite each
other, One Of them was sending
to New Orleans, While the other
was receiving messages from the same
point. The sender was addicted to the
use Of tobacco. His supply had run
out. Looking across the other side Of
the desk he spied a plug at the side Of

The young man was in a quaEdary.
To ask for the coveted weed would

change, and then 1t was forgotten. The
partners whose confidence Jack had 50
shamefully abused felt bound on pub
hc grounds to take some steps in the
matter, and they determined to prose-
cute him, and the police issued adver-
easements, and a reward was offered for
his apprehension. But not the slightest
trace was ever found of the fugitive.
Poor Rose at first utterly refused to
believe that her husband had gone OF
SO unceremoniously. Day after day she
expected that he would ind some
means Of communicating with her and
letting her know where he was. She
gave up everything to her husbands
creditors without q murmur, and went
back to live with her mother, hoping
against hope that she would hear some
thing Of Jack, that he would let her.
know where he was, and give her the
means OF joining him. But the weeks
grew into months, and still there came
no sign, and presently a year had gone
by and she was still in utter ignorance
Of her husbands whereabouts.
She felt that he had treated her very
cruelty; the shame was bad enough,
the terrible suspense was worse. She
didn't ven know If he was alive or
dead. He might have committed SUI
cide-drowned himself, pcrhaps-and
this was the reason that since the day
of his flight the silence had remained
unbroken.
She wondered often what could have
induced him to turn dishonest. She had
never asked for luxury, though she had
accepted it when 1t came. And Jack
himself had always appeared quite con-
tented and happy In the days when
they practised economy.
Year succeeded year, and still no news
came, and then Rose abandoned her last
hope, and made up her mind that on
this side OF the grave she should sec
her husband no more. Then she deter
mined to accept an offer which she had
from an old friend of her family, a
wealthy widow named Moncrien, aud
accept the position Of a companion to
her. Roses mother had died the year
previously, and she had no one to con-
ader but herself.
Mrs. Moncrier wa about to take
a long continental tour, and the change
of scene and the excitement would be
the very best thing possible for Mrs.
Smedley, whose health had suffered un-
der the long harass and suspense she
had endured.
On the evening that was to be her Last
in the lodgings she had occupied since
her mothers death, she was busy pack
ing her boxes, when the landlady anne
up to say that a gentleman wished to
see her.
1t was so unusual for any one to call
upon Mrs. Smedley, that for a moment
wild idea flashed across her mind that
it was Jack. But the hope was slain

lady added, HE says that his name Is

A Novel Source Of Danger From
Lightning.

n "~NS< NAkSS ~ nag GAVIN
Lightning.
A singular incident, indicating a hith-
erto unsupported danger from lightning
has been related by A. A. Voysey in an
English technical journal. A fringe,
which was nailed to an ornamental ia
BILE, vas found after a thunder storm
to be almost entirely burnt on the side
furthest from the window, the wood
being charred to a depth Of one-eighth
to one-quarter of an inch where the
fringe was burnt. But there was not
a mark or s1gn Of any kind that would
denote that the lightning had struck
the table and passed to the earth. The
damage to the table was completely
isolated. 1t was proved beyond ques-
ton that no one had entered the room
with a candle. A close examination Of
the fringe, which consisted OF a fluffy
material, probably 4 mixture Of cotton
and wool, and surely Of an inflamma-
BILE nature, was made, and here the ex-
PLANTATION Of the mystery was found.
Interspersed among the fluffy material
were fine metallic threads, which were
acted upon inductiv ely by the lightning
discharges taking place near the house.
This inductiye action was sufficient to
cause small sparks to fly between va
rious threads, and the sparks set the
infiammable material on fire. II the
fire caused in this peculiar manner had
not quickly died out the whole house
might have been destroyed and no sign
would have been left to point to the
true cause. 1t seems not unlikely, after
such an incident, that a large percent
age of the fires that occur in connec-
ton with thunder storms, and that are
generally attributed to the direct action
Of a lightning discharge have been
caused by induction. The eminent
English electrical authority, Prof.
Lodge, in commenting on this new
danger" says: THE note regarding in
direct fire from lightning is interesting.
It would be difficult to vouch for the
occurrence in any particular instance,
but I am already convinced that such
resonant sparks occur and do cause
fires. There is an instance at the Hotel
de vile, Brussels. Gas leaks act as
the usual finder. One would not \
pect a fringe to catch fire quickly
enough"

AS a result Of the modern discovery
and investigation Of microbes it has
been found that next to air in motion
dies are the most active agents in the
spread Of these %animalcules that con-
stantly threaten the lives of the human
family. There is the authority Of the
celebrated Russian physician named
Sawtsckenko, who has literally been
delving into flies, that during q siege
OF Asiatis cholera no agent is 50 active

afSE flies. This scientist has made many
experiments with flies and demon
lstrated again and again the presence Of
the comma bacillus Of cholera in what
n commonly called fly specks.u This
bacillis he repeatedly found active two
O three days after the insects had been
fed On cholera cultures. He expert
mented both with the common house
ny and what is known as the blue bot
tie fly. He first fed them with cholera
cultures and then on sterilized bouillon.
He found that when the flies were fed
on the intestinal contents Of victims of
the cholera scourge all sorts Of bacteria
were discovered with the contagious
bacili excretions of these insects, but
the cholera germs were found to lose
none of. their virulence and activity
during their passage through the body
OF the fly. In commenting on these in
vestigAtionS the New York Sun natur-
ally asks the question as to whether or
not these common, Shiny occupants Of
almost every dwelling are not also
active agents in the spread Of such
germ diseases as diphtheria, scarlet
fever, yellow fever and smallpox.
It is generally conceded that the fly
has been responsible for the spread Of
tuberculosis by feeding upon the spu-
tum of tuberculosis sufferers and car
rying the poison into a dwelling where
he Is often permitted to wallow in the
butter, drown himself in the cream
pitcher or revel in the sugar bowl and
possibly get drunk on the rim Of the
wine glass. There Is no doubt that in
times Of epidemic a fly in q dwelling
h0nse may be the insidious agent OF
death. The, only safety in times of
epidemic, whether it be cholera, small
pox, yellow fever or any of the infec-
tious infantile diseases, is to quarantine

Form OF Street Car for Ambu.
- lance Work.

- ANAkCS SVOEAs
A commendable idea has been worked
out In the construction of a new form
OF ambulance a at Lyons, France,
which is a military station, and where
there is frequent occasion for the con-
veyance of the sick of the garrison to
the great military hospital. For this
purpose, and also for the transport of
provisions and stores for the military
service, 1t has been the custom to en-
ploy tne ordinary street cars, but the
running OF a special car has been in
augurated. The lines belonging to the
streec lines have been supplemented by
addltlonal rails, both at the point OF
departure, where the car is housed,
ana at the hospital, where the car can
De run into a wash house for the DUR
pos OF disinfection. The car has q
platform at each end and is divided
into two compartments, one of which,
lighted by eight easements. with nova.
BILE glass and blinds, is furnished with
W liked benches to accommodate
eignt persons, four on either side. The
0tner compartment, lighted by a sky
Ilgnt, which can be opened, is very
much like the interior of the French
regulation ambulance wagon, and gives
accommodation to four patients on
stretchers suspended on two lines.
When not required for recumbent pa
tents h space can be utilized by sit
ting patients. The stretchers can be
moved in any direction; or, if neces-
sary, placed under the seats. The in
terror of the car is painted a mahog-
any color, and as the floor has been
treated with boiled linseed oil, the
whole a be easily washed and disin-
fected. A small cupboard is provided
for cleaning articles, and in winter the
car is heated by steam. The vehicle
Is painted a bright green, and is further
distinguished by flying the flag Of the

A Wire Measurer.

One Of the difficulties that large users
wire have constantly to contend with
10 q sure and simple method of regis
tering the quantity Of wire passing
daily out of the stock room. A new

on the market in Chicago seems to
meet this requirement. The wire nass-
es between two rollers, one of which ia
geared to a counting device that indi-
Gates the exact number of feet rim ont

glance how much wire he has to nav
for. The recording dial is similar to a
