STUDY OF ELEcTRlcIFY.
proposition 60 Organize a Glass III This

proposition TO Organize a Glass III This
City.
F. The National school Of electricity, an
organization which is establishing classes
all over the country for the study of cleo
tricity, is prepared to open one or more
classes in Waterbury. il there are suffi-
cient number interested. to warrant it.
The plans of the school are specifically
directed to the needs of mechanics and
young men in all walks of life who desire
a theoretical and. practical knowledge of
the science. but who can neither afford
the time nor expense incident to regular
college course. In the regular order of or
ganization Waterbury would be reached
some time during the coming winter. and
if it can be shown that there are twenty
Eve or more who would like to have a class
organized. representative of the school
will be sent here TO get the matter in
shape.
The National school is one of the direct
practical results of the Worlds fair of last
year, where it was found that a great many
people were interested in the subject of
electricity and that comparatively few
knew much or anything about it. though
there was a general desire to know. Asso-
ciated with the National school are gentle
men whose names ought TO be guarantee
of n specifically desirable course OF in
Il
chief of the electrical department of the
fair, is president of the school. while the
faculty embraces snch names as Thomas A.
Edison. Nikola Tesla. DIR Gray. Professor
Ryan of Cornell, Professor William A.
Anthony. Professor Carhart of Ann Arbor,
Professor Thomas of the Ohio State uni
versity. Professor Jackson of the Wiscon
sin state university. Professor shapardsor
of Minnesota and others.
The course of instruction offered by the
school consists of forty-fve lessons. given
one evening each week under the direction
of a competent instructor and in eonnec
ton with apparatus used for purposes o.
experiment and for illustration. A specia
feature of the lessons, and one which
brings them within easy reach of every
body. is the fact that they are presented
without the use of the higher mathematici
and in a form so that those who are no
familiar with algebra and geometry ma.
still grasp the subject intelligently ant
Complementary.
If those who are interested in this mat
ter will indicate the same by addressing
line to the school, at their office in tn
Decker building. Union square. Ne'
York, prompt action will be taken in tn
direction of organization. If the interes
manifested is sufficient to warrant it.

1t is becoming and s'in good form" as

as little as possible about defeated candi-

does not seem to observe this rule in rela-
ton to E. w. Pinney. the "late lamented"

1t must be the Americans justification for

criticisms on Pinney's methods as select
man but the main attempt seems to be
double coat of whitewashing. We do not
see the necessity for announcing that a
defeated candidate is IAN honest man.

whitewashing should have been done be-

that Mr. Pinney at least had exercised ex-

Editor of the DEMocRAT:
Now that the citizens of Waterbury have
paid, as Poor Richard" says, so much for
their whistle wouldn't 1t be good to inquire
how much pure water we may expect from
the guardians of public finances. The
present water committee claim
according to an interview with one of them
that they will flush" or in other words
fill the reservoir as it is. The present COM
nittee has been the past committee and it
SCENE very strange if it goes contrary
to the polIcy which it has advo-
Gated by its former action in
spending over 10000 in cleaning out
part of the bed of the reservoir. Do
the people of Waterbury expect pure
water from the remainder of the surface
Of the reservoir which Is, as the writer
knows perfectly we'll, filed with animal
and vegetable nuisance. which will event
ually bring disease instead of health to
the taxpayers of our city. Put the clean
ing out of the reservoir in charge of the
taxpaying citizens and they will see that
you have health and the employment Of
local labor.

The Book of Revelations

The series of sermons on the Book OF
Revelations, which the Rev Lewis f..
Hite is now preaching at the New Church
mission-room and at Gatewood Hall, Is
based on Swedenborg's work. Sweden
borg taught and Mr.. Iiite breaches that
the Lord alone can teach man the
spiritual meaning of His Word. but man,
on his part, must prepare himself by
study and experience to be taught There
must be truth in the mind for the light
to shine on.
1t is on this ground that the sermons
proceed to give the spiritual meaning In a
connected way Of the leading features Of
the Book Of Revelations.
In its spiritual sense the Book
of Revelations treats Of the d.
vine humanity OF the Lord. Of the
state of the Christian under the dominion
of the love Of rule ard faith alone, %
the last Judgment, and Of the establish
ment Of the New Jerusalem. In the vision
of the Son of Man. the Lords divine
humanity is described. In the messages
TO the angels Of the seven churches the
Lords predictions Of the changes That
must take place in the state or the
church before His divine humanity IS
acknowledged. and lie is worshipped in
His humanity rs Cod alone.
In the vision Of the throne. the opening
of the seals. the sounding of the truih-
pets, and the emptying Of the Viais Oh
wrath. the preparation for the Idst
Judgment is described 10y the ran Oh
Babylon and the casting down or the
dragon and the two beasts.
The description Of the holy Guy. 'ne
New Jerusalem. descending from Goa ous
of Heaven. tells of the establishment Oh
