Protection Against lightning

It seems strange that notwithstand-
ing the greas advance which has been
made in electricity during the last
twenty-five years 80 little progress
should have been made in developing
q method for protecting buildings from
the destructive effects of lightning.
The need of this protection was never
before 30 great as now, as the annual
loss of property in the United States
from lightning alone reaches hundreds
of thousands OF dollars, to say nothing
OF the hundreds OF lives which are de-
stroyed by the same agency. The
lightning rod remains in almost exactly
the same primitive state in which It
was left by Franklin, even the main
question of its efficiency not being set
tied beyond dispute. II the rod Is able
to accomplish what is claimed for it
there seems to be no reason why its
usefulness should not be Exclusively
proven. The fact OF its protective
qualities established there should be
no delay in Fastening its development
into that state OF perfection in which
1t could be relied upon with something
akin to certainty. There is certainly
a promising field here for ambitious
electricians.-M Manufacturers Gazette.

Didn't Like the Job.

In Yorkshire village there lived
three brothers, bachelors; the only
other inmate of their household was a
housekeeper. The brothers, returning
home to dinner one day, found the
housekeeper missing. On making in
quiries they discovered that she had
that morning married a farmer who
lived near. 1t was evident there was
no chance OF getting back their run
away housekeeper, and equally so that
they must have some one to manage
their domestic affairs.
The elder brother said that the best
thing would be for one of them to
marry, but, he added, Il shall not be
that one; am too old to marry"
Nor l." said the second one, who
considered himself something of an in
valid; Il shall never think Of marry
ing"
"Ah!" said the younger brother, II
see what you are driving at. 1t is just
what l expected-if ever there is a
nasty job to do, it is always left for
me-"

but the greatest loss on any one OF
these structures did not exceed $751;
600. The total loss, however, reaches
over s., 100000.
When asked for his opinion as to the
eau of the fire DR.. Talmage said en-
phatically: Electric Ii ghts. Elec-
tricity caused this fire, as it did in the
last tabernacle on Schermerhorn
street."
The loss on the church is not far
short of 100000. Russell Sage, who
has mortgage of $4,000 on the
church property and is also the owner
of the site upon which it stood, is fully
insured. Mr.. Sage said at is proba-
BILE that the people of Brooklyn will
come forward with a big subscription.
The insurance will cover the rest. Ii
they want to rebuild will put no OBJ
stacle in their way. In other words,
will let the debt and interest stand
over for an indefinite period, let them
rebuild on the insurance money and
what they can raise in subscriptions
and in other ways.
Was "A Beautiful Building.
DR.. Talmage's tabernacle in Scher-
merhorn street was destroyed by fire
in October, 1850. The new tabernacle
covered the entire plat of ground at
the northeast corner of Clinton and
Greene avenues extending back to
Waverly avenue. The frontage on
Clinton avenue is lis feet and the
depth on Greene avenue 200 feet. The
plat extends lis feet on Waverly ave-
nue..
The edifice was, in general, in the
Norman style Of church architecture,
although not of the conventional &C.
clesiastical type. il was very ornate
and imposing in appearance.
The church was built of a stone
called bastard granite. which is found
in Connecticut and possesses the pacu-
liarity of having thread-like veins OF
dark red running through it. The
trimmings and concentrations were OF
Lake Superior brownstone. with which
the granite harmoniZed very happily.
The striking characteristics OF the ex-
terror were a high tower at the corner
and two large gables on each facade,
with small towers at the extreme ends
OF each facade. The corner tower was
100 feet high from the ground to the
finals. It's general form was square,
but over the two principal entrance
ways. one of which is on the Clinton
! avenue side and the other on the
Greene avenue side Of the tower, there
was a rounded projection carried up
for two stories.
The interior of the building was
very beautiful. A warm rouge tiat
was the prevailing color, matching the
| yellow pine mbers of the roof truss.
| es, all of which were left in the .latural
color of the wood. The general shape
of the interior of the church proper
was that OF large empitheater, semi
| circular shape. There were two gal
| leries. and the whole seating capacity
was about 5000 people, about one-hali
on the main floor and the remainder
was in the galleries.
