Electricity on Japanese War Vessels,

Electricity on Japanese War Vessels.
The firing of great guns and the ex-
plosion of shells appears to have the
effect of disarranging some of the cleo
trical devices on war ships. The
Japanese legation in Paris has for
warded to the French government a
report relating to the recent naval COM
bats, in which it is stated, with re-
gard to the electric installations on
board the mikado's warships, that the
Interruptions Of current which took
place were not caused, as has been said,
by the recoil Of the guns, but by the
bursting of Chinese shells. The work.
ing of the ordnance Unanswered by
electricity was not interfered with. The
electric wires used for iginiting
charges were, however, broken by the
vibration set up by the firing of the
heavy guns.

cause all the stores will be selling them
to make way for the coming princess
and Louis XVI. styles. But for a good
year to come skirts and fancy bodices
will be worn, and there will not be a
time in the next two years when q
handsome skirt made with the present
fullnes cannot be made a good part Of
a gown. The woman who rushes into
a new fashion is much less wise than
the woman who hangs on to an old one.
In the accompanying picture is shown
a skirt that demands slightly hip
outline, but the costume Of which it is
a part depends for it's distinction on its
upper portion. Beige crepon Is the
fabric of the skirt, but the blouse waist
is from mauve mousseline de sole, made
over a fitted lining of mauve silk. 1t
has deep, square yoke of beige satin,
to which mauve velvet is appllQued,
and which is finished with two frills
of the mousseline. The standing collar
is finished with big chiffon rosettes and
beige satin bows ornament the shoul-
ders. Cream color over pink is quite the
most persistent of summers fancies.
The cream color is of all shades, from
corn yellow and buff to dull linen or
oyster gray, while the pink tends to
bright rose.

A tight sleeve in all its native simpl-
city takes away the broad effect which
women have striven so hard to obtain.
And after hours of toll with dumb-bells
and bicycle and all manner OF athletic
sports, would any woman wear sleeves
that made her look narrow? No, in
deed. She puts on those tight sleeves,
because Dame Fashion says she must,
but she covers them with rows Of pufs
or ruhles until in size they match those
to which she has hidden adieu. The
heavy materials must naturally be
made into puffs, but in the lighter ma

Perhaps the oldest pavement ever
laid is one just completed at Chino,
Cal. 1t is made mostly Of molasses,
and if it proves all of the success
claimed for it, it may point way for
the sugar planters of the South to
probably dispose Of the millions OF
gallons of useless molasses which they
are said to have on hand. The head
chemist of sugar factory at Chino,
Mr.. Z. Turke, was led to make certain
experiments, of which the new side
walk, a thousand feet long, from the
factory to the main street, is the re-
suit. The molasses used is refuse
product, hitherto believed to be OF no
value. 1t is simply mixed with GER
tain kind of sand to about the consis-
tency Of asphalt and laid like an
asphalt pavement The composition
dries quickly and becomes quite hard,
and remains so. The peculiar point OF
it is that the sun only makes it drier
and harder, instead of softening it, as
might be expected. A block of the
composition, two feet long, foot wide,
and one inch thick, was submitted to
severe tests and stood them we'll. Laid
with an inch or so of its edges resting
on supports, it withstood repeated blows
of a machine hammer without showing
any effects of cracking or bending.

the dead into crematory furnaces in this
way. There is also the very gravest
danger that careless ana unfeeling en-
ployes may pick up men who are only
stunned or who may have tainted and
plunge them into the fiery vortex. 1t
is well-understood fact that men
have lain for hours on the battlefield
dead to all appearances. and such might
easily be gathered up by ignorant or
unobserving attendants and consigned
to the flames. It would be very mucn
better to prepare temporary receiving
hospitals, where all men not absolutely
shot to pieces could be removed and ex-
amined. Then the crematory might do
good work. There is, however. a mel
ancholy satisfaction to surviving
friends in the idea that the bodies OF
their loved ones who have fallen In
battle may be brought home to them
and buried in the family vault. Battle
field crematories are not likely to come
into general favor among people OF
delicate sensibilities.

"SUNDAY

twill Be My First Day In Heaven"
Cried the Dying Girl.
Word has been received from Prince
ton, Mo-, of the sad death of Miss Anglo
Bowsher, formerly Of Upper Sandusky.
She had been with an outing party at
Mineral Springs, Mo-, and her chum.
Miss Allie Ballew, taking a repeating
rife from the hands of one Of'the gen,
tlemen of the party, attempted to fire
1t. It discharged prematurely, the con-
tents striking Miss Bowsher in the uack
and passing through her body. She
lived four days, aha passed away while
sleeping, after one of the grandest
death scenes ever witnessed. She had
survived an operation, which promised
recovery, and although suffering no
pain, she said she would lie. She sang
familiar church hymns, and expressed
the deepest sympathy for Miss Ballew,
Who accidentally shot her. Asking
what day it was, she was told that It
was Saturday, and replied, her face
cleaning with happiness: Tomorrow
is Sunday. First day in heaven will be
Sunday. Won't that be grand?" She
then asked Rev o. S. Russell, whose
rifle it was that caused her fatal injury,
to read and pray. When he took the
Bible to read, she asked everyone to
listen. He read several verses from the
eighth chapter of Romans, after which
he offered prayer. After the prayer she
said, LET us sing" and then started the
song, "Shall We Meet Beyond the
River?" She then looked up and said,
Tell Allie goodbye" Calling her sis.

Electrical Notes.

1t is said that electric lamps run by
storage batteries last twice as long
as lamps operated directly from dy-
namos.
Any galvanometer having a resist
ance which is large in proportion to the
current to be measured can be used as
a voltmeter after celebration.
In an arc lamp, supplied with a d.
rect current. the consumption of the
positive carbon is in round numbers
one inch per hour, and of the negative
carbon one-half that amount.
Aluminium has the least electrical re-
sistance for given length and weight
and mercury has the greatest; but for
a given length and sectional area, an
nealed silver has the least resistance
and bismuth the greatest.
Before beginning to charge a storage
battery, it should be gone over care
fully. and any cell that is not up to the
standard should be taken out of the
circuit, and put in working condition
before being replaced.
S. p. Thompson says: You will get
the given amount of magnetism and
with the least amount of mag
force, when you have the area
(of the magnet as great as possible
and the length as small a. possible

brimmed straw hat, who was doing
chores about the place with the method

had but to compare the strangers spare

the latter could have small sympathy
with the nervous activity Of the former.
1t was easy enough for Uncle Billy to
stay where put, with the force of grav-
ity ever present as determining fa:-
tor in his personal states. Seems Re
hAes to travel" continued Uncle Billy.
''He says he walked nigh a thousand
miles in a pair of secondhand shoes
he got somewhere out west. He walked
most of the way from California. and
he's lately been down to the Isthmus
of Panama. Well, saw him one day
on the other side of the Bronx and
asked him if he didn't want work. He
said yes. for day or two, but said
wanted a man for month. Then he
said he'd try it week. That was
four months ago, and he's been here
ever since"
"And you were born here and always
found it easy enough to stay" asked
the listener.
''Me?" rejoined Uncle Billy. Eyes. I
was born here, in that house which my
father built somewhere about 1900. He
drawed that ale here sixty years ago. I
found some brandy once that the old
man had put away forty years before"
Then Uncle Billy, leaning back In
dreamy ease beneath an apple tree In
the grassy triangle at the side Of the
inn, told of his plan for tent in the
triangle and new veranda, unrealized
dreams Of a dozen years past. There
was a fog in his small hazel eyes as
the wanderer again came in sight, and
a pucker in the skin of his forehead,
as if he were vainly endeavoring to
understand his hired mans point Of
view. Dramatically opposite instincts
were brought face to face In master
and man, and for space Of four
months at least the static had exercised
a sort of spell over the active instinct.
The wanderer had met his temporary
Nirvana in the vast calm of Uncle
Billy's personality.

The fashion of wearing white at the
throat is not SO prevalent as 1t was in
the spring.
It is quite safe to have any silk gown,
or a light wool designed for early au-
tumn wear, made with rufled skirt.
Some very elegant plaid silk blouses
are being devised by fashionable mo-
distes to wear with tailor-made cos
tunes.
Plaids are very fashionable. and will

Submarine Photography.

Mr.. Louis Boutan has made some in
teresting experiments in submarine
photography. He is an ardent student
of zoology, and during the investiga-
tons he made on the shores of the
Mediterranean he was so impressed
with the beauty of the sights offered
that he concluded to make some effort
to represent them by pictures as we'll
as words. His first experiments were
made at slight distance under the
surface of the water. where the inten-
sity of the light is still sufficient for the
production of photographs; he con-
structed camera and an instantaneous
shutter especially adapted for use in
water. Finding it desirable to take
pictures at greater depths, Mr.. Boutan
resorted to the employment of artifi-
cial light, and employed an apparatus
whose construction is shown in the
cut
The apparatus comprises barrel, T,
containing oxygen and carrying a glass

and from there falling free. Again,
rows Of braid are set round and round
from belt to below the hips, or the
braid Is set in spoke-like rows, spread

loop just below the hips. In all cases
the bodice is elaborate either with
shocking or braid corresponding to the
skirt. This model is very pretty for
any delicate or transparent material
that does not adapt itself to shaping,

until the very breezes of summer are
bewitched and play a game of hide and

picture is of straw-colored organdy
over green satin. The sleeves finish at
the elbow with a band of satin. The
green yoke is surmounted by ruche
OF organdy. The sleeves proper have
three ruffles and an additional two
