Fifty Years of Electricity.


From inc New York Press tRep0.
Electricity performs such an important
part in the life Of the present generation and
its varied uses are so generally accepted now
as an everyday fact, that it is hard t. realize
how swiftly and recently this tremendous
force has been tanned and harnessed to the
service OF man. Electric telephones. electric
cars, electric lights, eiectric elevators bells
fans and the like are SO constantly in evil
denCe TO day that 1t appears almost incredible
that only half century has elapsed since the
electric telegraph became a practical reality
Yet such is the fact. Fifty years ago this
month was completed the historic telegraph
line between Baltimore and Washington and
on May "a. ls4i Miss Annie Ellsworth who
had first notified Professor Samuel F. b
priation of $4,000 to test his invention over
a distance long enough to prove its
actual value, sent over the wires the first
formal telegraph message: What hath God
wrought"

A year ago the reports from Europe
were that war was imminent. The num-
Der of war clouds the newspapers dis
covered was unusually large. Now there
is only talk of peace. The Prince of
Wales is quoted as saying that peace is
assured, and that the desire for disarma
ment is shared by all European sover.
eigns. Even France and Germany have
a kindlier feeling for each other than the
have had SINCE 1870. The truth Is eact
nation is too Much bothered by its ow,,
affairs at this time to desire foreign com
plications.

While the income tax has not been made

Widows nowadays make their appear
ance at very unexpected times with a
frequency that is alarming to heirs. As
rule there is always more or less prop
erty to be divided in these unexpected
appearance cases. Last Friday David
Edwards, a citizen Of Plymouth, Pa, was
killed by the street cars. He was man
of considerable wealth and had grown IN
children. 1t was supposed he was
widower. His children, who were max
ing preparations for his funeral. were
somewhat surprised on Saturday by the
appearance Of a woman, who said that
she was the widow of the dead man. She
had marriage certificate made out in
proper form. Her alleged rights were
recognized for the time being, but there
is likely to be trouble over the dead man S
estate unless a will should be found.
According to Baron Uecritz, of
Berlin, the society girls Of San Fran
cisco, if they become interested in a man.
believe in making the fact known to the
object of their affections. The baron had
letters of introduction which gained him
admission into the swell set. That was
about a month ago About the first of
this month he left San Francisco, not,
however, before he had given the Exam
iner, of that city, an interview, in which
he said the society girls wanted to share
his tit&es and castles on the Rhine so
badly that they made life d burden to
him by their attentions. He, therefore,
fed to New Orleans. The count is an
unusually tall man, and he may be an I'M
usually tall romancer.

APPALLING.
Terrible Disaster in Fireworks Fac
tory in Virginia.
Twelve Burned and B1ackened Bodies
From the Ruins-severafP Persons Bad
ly Injured, Some of Whom VIII Die
Funerals of the Victims.

PETERSBURG. Va April 8. Saturday
afternoon an alarm of fire was turned
in, and this was soon followed by
loud explosion, and in about fifteen
minutes thereafter there was a second
explosion. These explosions were dis
tinctly heard for distance of over
mile, and were caused by fire breaking
out in the fireworks factory of c. n.
Romaine & Bro, in Clandford suburb
of Peters burg
The flames were quickly communi-
Gated to the other buildings used for
the manufacture of fireworks. and there
were frequent explosions. At the time
the fire occurred high wind prevailed
and the firemen had to work at a great
disadvantage. The total loss by the
fire will be fully 800, 600, partly COW
cred by insurance in northern COM
panies The saddest feature of the
whole occurrence was the loss of life
which resulted from the explosions and
fire, Twelve people were killed in the
explosions and many injured.
The deadly explosion at Romaine &
Bros, and the great sacrifice of life has
been the sole theme of conversat tion
here Sunday. Special reference was
made to the catastrophe in all of the
churches.
The funerals of Messrs. C. n. Ro-
maine, John b. Bland, James Rowland
and Robert Rowland, two brothers:
James Perkins and Edward Taylor, all
victims of the explosion, took place
Sunday, and were largely attended
The funerals of Messrs. Romaine and
Brand, members of the city council,
were attended by the city council in a
body. The funeral of Capt Tosh will
take place Tuesday morning He
leaves widow with twelve children.
John Harris, another victim, died Sun
day afternoon.
Sunday morning another dead body
was found near the river bank, but
could not be identified. The poor fell
low had been hurled through the air
and carried distance of several
hundred yards. A jaw bone with the
teeth was found Sunday half mile
from the scene of the explosion. Three
hearts and any quantity of bones of
human beings were found buried in the
debris. These were placed in a box
and buried. The head of James Per-
kins was found Sunday morning some
distance from the scene of the ex-
plosion.
Had the explosion occurred an hour
later a hundred or more persons would
have been killed.
The condition of Chief Engineer Far
ley is very critical.
Pursuant to the call of the mayor, a
mass meeting of citizens was held in
the corporation court room Sunday to
take such measures of relief as the oc-
casion requires. Over $1,000 was con-
tributed. The city council will be asked
to contribute, and it is expected to
make the fund $1,000.
1t is estimated that fully 20 900 peo-
| pie visited the scene of the catastrophe
Sunday. BY the destruction of the
fireworks and the tobacco factory, at
least 800 people are thrown out of en-
| ployment.

WOMEN MASONS.

Mary Ellen Lease Is in Chicago to Or
ganlze an Order. and Talks of Her
Plans.
. CHICAGO, April 9. 9.-Mary Ellen Lease,
of Kansas, is here. In an interview she
said:
."I am in Chicago to organize ma
sonic order for women. | have decided
that the masonic order has been of
such wonderful benefit to men-so
wonderfully uplifting and educational
that it is certainly pity to deprive
women of the benefits. ! do not pro-
pose to organize anything antagonistic
to the present masonic order but the
organization will be made in such a
manner that they will cooperate with
us and approve it. | wish to organize
here first, and then in New York and
other principal cities .
II am already billed to speak in New
York for a compensation of $500 a night
at Madison Square. The lectures will
be followed by the organization and
the initiation of members of the ma
sonic degrees This is really no new
departures; in fact it is old. At one
time in Europe, principally in France,
the crowned heads all went wild over
the scheme of comforting masonic de-
grees on women. There is no use in
saying there is any masonry in the
Eastern Star degree. propose to use
the bona fide masonic order"
Asked how much she knew about the
masonic rites, Mrs. Lease looked know
ing, and said she knew all about it.
Asked how she knew, she looked mys-
terious and said she did not care to
tell, but it was not by ''peeping," SO
there
