A Significant Article.
The Electrical Boom Business Is BEING
Greatly OverdOne.

Franklin L. Pope, the distinguished cleo
trical expert, continues to point out, in the
pages of the Engineering Magazine that
the prevalent craze for the construction of
electric street railways is leading to the ex-
ploitation of them in many localities where
there is no possible chance of their ever
proving remunerative investments. There
has been excessive development in the
electrical field in other directions, as well,
OF 81 companies engaged in supplying
electric light and power in Massachusetts,
in 1892, only 10 have been able to earn
dividends of six per cent or more, while 81
have paid no dividends at all. Most of
the smaller companies have already over
loaded their plants, and are now confront
ed with the serious question whether it is
worth while to add to their already UNI
profitable investment in order to accom-
modate new custom. Like the English
sportsman in the iungles of India, who had
the tiger by the tail, they do not know
whether it it is best to hold on or let CO.
If they raise the rate to a paying point,
which would probably necessitate an adj
vance of 80 per cent on the present figures
not only will they be denounced as con-
scienceless monopolists and eXtortioners,
but their customers will, in too many
Instances, revert to their old-time habits of
burning kerosene and going to bed at 3
o'clock That the situation is a sufficient
ly serious one is shown by the fact that
more than 81 ,00O 900 has been invested in
electric lighting plants in various Massa-
chusetts towns on which the net earnings
at the present time, leaving repairs and re-
newals out of the question altogether, do
not exceed one per cent per annum. Yet
the conditions of success and prosperity in
this industry are, to say the least fully at
favorable in Massachusetts as in any other
section of the United States.
1t is not difficult to foresee that there
must ultimately be severe check to the
present electrical boom. An enormous
amount of capital is being put into cleo
trical enterprise of one kind and another
which have no inherent possibilities of Ill
innate commercial success. The manu-
facture and sale of machinery and supplies
for the equipment of all these non-payng
electric light companies and electric rail
ways makes business lively and apparently
prosperous for the time, but when the
inevitable day of reckoning comes, it is
much to be feared that the financial results
will lead capitalists to entertaining an
ineradcable distrust of legitimate as well
as illegitimate electrical enterprises, "a
consummation for many reasons greatly tC
be regretted

New York with Lieut.. Peary and his sec
ond arctic expedition on board The Fall
con is expected to land the party at Bow
doin bay, on the coast of Greenland, the
last of this month, where the winter
house, the material for which is on board,
will be erected This house will be % by
IA feet and y feet high. The boxes in
which the provisions are stored are all of
one size and they will be piled up in sim
gle row around the house. From the top
of the wall thus formed strips of corrugat-
ed iron will be laid to the roof of the
house, making not only an inclosed PROM
enade, but wind-proof wall, when it is
firmly banked with snow on the outside.
The outer walls of the house will be made
of several thicknesses of boards and tar pa
per- Bed blankets will be used for the in
terror walls. There will be sleeping and
eating accommodations and two bath rooms.
The coal oil boiler from the steam launch
will be set up in the house and will sup
ply steam to a small engine to run dyn-
amo for electric lights.
About the first of next March the work
of exploration will begin, the men being
divided into two parties for this purpose.
! The principal objects in view are to ascer-
tain and map out the northern boundary
! of Greenland and its northwestern ice-cap
The party will be gone upward of two
wears, the Falcon going to bring its mem
! beers back in the summer of 1895.

The consumption of manufactured to-
bacco has increased within the past ten
years about 30 per cent, and nearly so per
cent within twenty years. But in cigars
and cigarets, the latter more especially, the
consumption has increased even more
rapidly. In 1872 the consumption of
cigars was 37.4 for each inhabitant. 1t
had risen to 5S.2 per capita ten years
later, in 1882, and was 1912 for each man,
woman and child in the country last year,
thus showing an increase in consumpti on
of almost 100 per cent within the 20 years,
as compared with an increase in consump-
ton of manufactured tobacco. In 1872 our
production of cigarets was only about 20,
900, 900, or half cigaret for each inhabit-
ant, whereas last year the production had
reached the enormous quantity of $685.
OOO, 900, or almost fifty cigarets for every
inhabitant. While deploring the growth
in the production of cigarets, it is crafty
ing, on the other hand, to note that there
has been a decrease in the manufacture of
chewing tobacco.

How the Obelisks Of the PharaOhs Were
Quarried and Transported,

An unfinished obelisk in the quarries at
Syene shows us the mode by which the
workmen of old were able to detach these
immense masses of granite, as the marks
of their tools are plainly seen on its sur
face. There is very sharply cut groove
defining the shape and size of the obelisk,
and all along this are holes evidently in
tended for wooden wedges. After these
had been driven firmly into the hole the
groove was kept filled with water. This
the wedges gradually absorbed, and in
swelling cracked the granite along the
length of the groove. The block once de-
tached was pushed forward upon rollers
made of the stems of pine trees, from the
quarries to the edge of the Nile, where it
was surrounded by a large timber raft.
There it probably lay until the next mum
dation of the Nile, when the rising waters
foated the raft down the stream to the
city where it was to be set up. There it
was again pushed and pulled on rollers, by
thousands of laborers or slaves, up an in
clned plane to the front of the temple
where it was to stand. 1t is thought that
the pedestal had previously been put in
position, and that a firm causeway of sand
covered with planks led to the top of ii.
| Then, by means of rollers, levers, and
ropes made of the fibre of the date palm,
the huge monolith was slowly hOisted into
an upright position IFOrthngtOn'S Mag
