Driving Wfndmills by Electricity

A novel departure has been taken by
the owners of windmill at Bremen,
Germany Hitherto it has been the
custom to use Windmills in conjunction
with dynamos for the generation Of
electricity, more especially for light
ing purposes, in places remote from 4
regular supply Of current, and some
most successful installations Of this
kind have been made. The owner Of
the German windmill proposes to re
verse this process, and instead of max
ing his windmill drive a dynamo, he
Will use an electric motor connected

An improvement in Electric Bell.

One Of the most Objectionable quail
ties OF the electric bell is its uniform
noisiness and shrillness. There are
many places in which an alarm Of a
less aggressive and peremptory na-
ture is desirable, and it is surprising
that a quiet electric bell has not
been manufactured for use in offices,
hotels and private houses. The bell
can be adjusted to make as much or
as little noise as may be needed. Its
principal feature is that it can be used
either as slow-striking bell single

a Neglected Congregation in The Dalles.

Upon the streets of our city may be
seen nearly every evening, large con-
gregation of quiet and attentive listeners
including people from the surrounding
country, as well as residents here, many
of whom evidently seldom, if ever,
attend divine service in any regularly
appointed place of worship. Here along
the streets of our city, the enemy has
chosen his ground and massed his forces.
Into the sinks of iniquity in The Dalles
(and there are not a few of them) the
young of our city, and many others, are
being constantly drawn to destruction.
Brethren, let us stand in the breach.
Does not your commission read f'into
the highways?" And do we not need and
shall we not have the Gatling guns and
great Ordinance as well as blowing of
bugle, marching and rattling of few
musketry?
On our way to our beautiful temples of
worship, where SO many empty pews
await us, in this our Jerusalem, suppose
we stop iust long enough on the street
to pour in volley into the enemy's
rank. On our way up to the temple to
worship Almighty God, let US stop just
long enough, at least, to pour little of
our abundance of the oil of the Gospel
into the wounds of our fallen brethren.
Don't let's ''pass by any longer ''on the
other side" Will our reputation, dig
nifty or piety suffer irreparable loss by SO
doing? How else can we save men but
by personal contact with them every
where? If our ''clean hands" or linen
get little soiled the fountain is open
you know.
A good part of the past year have re-
sided in this city and been regular
attendant upon divine service; and dur
ing the brief time the Salvation Army
have labored here I have seen more
people seeking for pardon of sin and the
gift of the Holy Spirit, than in all the
rest of the time. Then help the good
work. JASON B. GoRHAM.

where ocean Gables Are Thickest.9

The cable map of the world, pre-

partment, shows that the Mediter7
ranean is thickly netted with cables
west of Malta. So is the North At
lantic between the thirty-eighth and
fifty-fifth parallels. The North sea,
the Red sea and the Arabian sea have
many cables. The only great unbridged
spaces are the Pacific, the South At
lantic and the great stretch of the In
dian ocean between Madagascar and
Australia. There is no considerable
cable north of Stockholm or south of
Nelson. New Zealand. The Black sea
is completely girdled by land lines and
, crossed by one cable. The Gulf of
Mexico is crossed, though not at its
widest, by several cables, and the
waters of the West Indies are becom-
ing thickly netted with short cables.
