A Pocket Nieht-Lamp.


To instantly obtain light sufficient
by night, without danger of setting
an Oblong vial of the clearest Of glass,
put into it piece Of PHOSPHORUS about
the size Of pea, pour upon this some
pure olive oil, heated to the boiling
point; the bottle is to be filled about
one-third full, then cork tightly. To
use the light remove the cork, allow
the air to enter, then re-cork. The
whole empty space in the bottle will
then become luminous, and the light
obtained will be good one. AS soon
as the light becomes dim it's power
can be increased by opening the bottle
and allowing fresh supply Of air to
enter.
In very cold weather it is sometimes
necessary to heat the vial between the
hands to increase the fluidity of the
oil, and one bottle will last a whole
winter. This ingenious contrivance
may be carried in the pocket, and is
used by Watchmen in Paris in all the
magazines where explosives or infam.

The Difference.

When one reads the difficulties
Bridgeport. Conn, is encounterinC
with its street railway syndicate, as
told in detail in our telegraph coll
umns. he appreciates the more fully
the unusual advantages and good
fortunes the tri-cities possess in the
street railway company controlling
their lines. In Bridgeport the COM
pany owning the franchises has not
only failed to keep faith with the
council. and is still running
horse cars, and second hand
ones. the lettering on which has
never been changed ut that. but has
fought the city instead of co-operat.
ing with the municipal body. In
striking contrast the tri-city company
has not only given us the best there
is in the way of equipment bought
brand new for the system. but still
better has been ordered and at the
same time has acquisced with all the
city has done in permanent improve
ments. bearing chcerfully its full
proportion of the burdens.
