Origin OF Electricity.

Professor Elihu Thomson, the elec-
trical expert, in the course of lee
ture in Lynn on lightning and high
potentials, stated that he inclined to
the belief that lightning is caused by
the. action Of the sun on the clouds
through the ether, arguing thatf the
sun can produce the aurora borealis
in thelght, thin air, which he repro
duced by electrical apparatus, there
is reason to think that in the dense
air nearer the earth it can produce Q
current Of high pressure that win
strike through with brilliant dis
charges. he showed q completely ssfe

The British Coast.

The most dangerous part of the
British coast is that between Flam-
borough Head and the North Fore:
land, including as it does both the
Humber and the Thames. The next
most dangerous!district is, that be-
tween Anglesea and the Null Of Can
tyre, which includes the Mersey and
the Clyde. Next comes that be-
tween Hartland Point and st. David's
Head, which includes the Bristol
channel. The district between the
North Foreland and St. GATHERINGS,
including of course the straits Of
Dover. comes But fourth on the list.

IMPROVEMENT IN BOILERS.
A Simple Means by Which ssearn Pressure
Tacroases WonderfpllY,

Increases Wonderfully.
As 8 matter. Of theory it IS held
that one pound Of good coal is capa-
bic Of evaporating Is pounds of wa
ter, but that it does so or even ap-
pro1imately so in ordinary steam
boiler practice no one viii affirm. It
is recorded that about so years ago an
evaporation of 12.s9 pounds of water
per pound of coai from 2l2 degrees
F. was effected in Cornwall, England.
In the present DAY, however, as a
rule, the rate Of evaporation is not
much over six pounds, the difference
probably being due to the difference
between natural and forced draft.
In the Cornwall and Lancashire
types Of boiler the evaporation is
probably not more than one-haf
of what the fuel is capable Of effect
ise Hence, invention has for years
past been actively at work u en-
deavoring to improve the evaporauVe
efficiency Of the steam boiler. 1t
would seem that 8 distinct advance
has been made in this direction by
the introduction Of q new and simple
system, which consists in riveting q
series Of angle irons longitudinslly
on to the inside Of the furnace fue
and on the outside Of those portions
Of the shell which are exposed to heat
in the bottom and side dues. These
angle irons project from the boiler
plates and arrest the heat from the
passing gases, transmitting it to the
water.
Besides the absorption and trans.
mission Of heat by the angle irons,
they further promote evaporation by
forming channels. along which in the
boiler 6ue the flames sweep in close
hugging contact with the boiler. A
collateral advantage Of the system IS
that by the addition of the angle
irons, which form q series Of longt-
tudinal ribs, the boiler IS protected
and mstesially strengthened in its
most exposed parts
The correctness OF the principle In
volyed was clearly and practically
demonstrated in a recent test of an
experimental apparatus. This appa-
ratus consisted Of two cylindrical
metallic vessels Of precisely similar
size, but representing otherwise in
their construction the new and the
old systems Of boilers. The vessel
with the plain tube was first placed
over q Bunsen burner, the tempera-
ture Of the water being 81 degrees F.
In IS minutes a temperature OF only
no degrees F. was reached The YES
sci with the ribbed tube was then
placed over the same burner, the wa
ter being at e6 degrees F. In 10 min
utes 2s seconds temperature of 212
degrees was reached. violent ebu1i-
ton taking place.
a review Of the tests tends to q
conclusion that the invention is at
once simple and efficient, high
evaporative power being impaired to
q very unpromising form Of steam
generator by very direct means. This
system IS novel departure and con-
stitutes an important and practical
advance in steam boiler practice

Jurymen are sometimes quite IN
conscious of their own determination
of spirit. One of them, Mr. Croake
James tells-as, once explained to the
recorder, who had noticed his pecu-
iarity, that his behavior was entirely
misunderstood. "No man, sir, is more
open than am. to conviction and to
do what's right in every case, but I
have not met with the same consid-
Grafton from others. It has general
ly been my lot to be On 8 jury with
II of the most obstinate men imagin-
able, who viii. net listen to reason" !"
It IS fair to say that once in hun
dred times or so this minority Of one
proves to- be in the right. Lord
Lyndhurst mentions case in which,
through the opposition of a single in
dividual, the jury, who were other
wise all for verdict Of guilty, could
come to no agreement, but on the
prisoner being tried again he was
unanimously and as it turned out
justly acquitted.-llustrate London
