IN THE ELECTRICAL WORLD.

AN English chemist named ARM
strong asserts IL as his belief that no
chemical action ever takes place except
in the presence of some substance cap
able of being decomposed by electric
ity, and that therefore all chemical
phenomena are electrical
Prof. Lucien |. Blake has succeed
ed, IL is said, in establishing electrical
communication by wire between the
land and n vessel anchored several
miles out In the ocean. Prof. Blake is
Kansas man and occupies the chair
.. physics and electrical engineering
at the Kansas State university.
Within a radius of 80 miles of New
York city, says Electricity, there are
3,5O0, 600 people and $4,000 telephones.
In<New York city proper there are. TO-
500 telephone stations, 90 per cent. of
which are equipped on the metallic cir
cult system. In that city the Metro
politan Telephone & Telegraph Co. OPP
crates 10 central exchanges, seven OF
which are entirely for metallic circuit
service. The New York & New Jersey
Telephone Co. has 10000 subscribers,
about as per cent. of whom enjoy the
metallic circuit system.
An improved multiple telegraphic
instrument has been introduced into
France, in which each key sends over
the line wire at each operation an in
termittent current corresponding to a
definite number of vibrations a minute.
The receiving saunders are each in a
similar way sensitive only to currents
having determir ed rate of vibrations
corresponding TO one of the transmit
ting keys. Consequently each receiver
selects and responds to the current
sent by transmitter having a corre-
spending period of vibrations.
According to Nature trials have
been made in London. Eng, of new
apparatus for ex racting teeth by cleo
tricity IL consists of an induction
coil of extremely fine wire. having an
interruptor capable of vibration at
the rate of $50 times a second. The pa
! tient sits in the regulation arm chair,
and takes the negative electrode in his
left hand and the positive in his right.
At this moment the operator turns on
current, of which the intensity is
gradually increased till II has obtained
the utmost limit that the patient can
support. The extractor is then put in
circuit and fastened on the tooth,
which, under the action of the vibra-
tion, is loosened at once. The opera
tion is performed quickly, and the pa
tient feels no other sensation than the
| priclxing produced in the hands and
forearms by the current.

Prospective Glimpse of Mexico.

A note from o. l.. Dowell, Of
this city, who is now in Mexico on
an excursion with the Travellers
Protective association, promises
that he will make a memoranda of
the chief incidents of his journey
and favor the readers with a des-
cription OF the trip. As there is
hardly spot within the borders
of the Mexican republic not of in
terest to an American, it may be
anticipated that a rich treat is in
store. In regard to the excursion
the !. & G. n. city passenger
agent at San Antonio had this to
say:
"You have no idea of the i'm
mense crowd OF people who will
take advantage of the cheap rates.
The crowd will be simply enorm-

very much crowded with cores.
pondence relating TO the trip and
am satisfied it will take several
trains to carry them. The trip to
Monterey is receiving much atten-
tion and we expect to carry q great
many to that city who will not
have time to go to Mexico City.
The trip will be a very delightful
one as our special trains will run
during the day only, thus giving
the passengers a chance to see all
the country they pass through and
allow them TO spend each night in
large city on the route and sleep
in comfortable beds. We will
have, however, sleepers attached
to the train fo- those who wish
them and at the nominal cost. The
trip will be made in eight days.
The train win leave at seven
O'clock Thursday morning, arriY-
ing at Monterey that night at s
O'Clock. 1t will leave Monterey
at 7 O'Clock Friday morning ar
irving at San Louis Potog at s D.
m. That night will be spent in
San Luis and the train will arrive
IN Mexico City at 10 O'Clock Sat
urday night. This will give the
excursionists chance to spend a
Sunday in the capital and one Sun
day there is better than any two
other days Of the week.
"There are many beautiful
sights to be seen on the route to
Mexico City and this is the time
of year 10 see everything at the
best advantage. The Mexican
National runs through the noun
famous country and the scenery
along the route is superb. This is
the time OF year when the fruits
and vegetables are most plentiful
and best. There are many places
Of unusual interest around Mexico
City to entertain the visitors and
the two days spent there will be
one continuous round Of pleasure.
Those who don't care to return on
the special train cln remain in the
city for some time as the tickets
will ba good for fifteen days

THE editor of this paper views
with complacency and equanimity
the personal reflection in yester.
days wind bag" While NJ.
Frazee was a private citizen THE
CHIEFTAIN could never see its way
clear to impale him before the pub
lie in all his depravity, but now
he has placed himself before the
world in a public capacity and we
shall take delight in pulling the
lions skin off him and letting the
people get good view of him and
see just how long his ears are.
Since accepting the editorship of
a newspaper he has developed a
new trait, i. e., one that was not
80 conspicuous in private life, viz:
the roll of a sneaking fa!sifier-
the weapon of the coward, and the
characteristic of an assassin. Of
course there are'many things re-
corded against the old man, and
that are true, that would not be
suitable to print-that is, would
not make good Sunday school lit
crature and probably wouldn't
pass through the mails, but we
can safely promise the readers of
The CHIEFTAIN that at least
enough will be found each week
for a chapter or two.

ONE very noticeable feature of
the present political campaign is
that Sam Mayes has not found it
necessary to defend his public or
private record. His business and
political actions have been such
that they have needed no defense.
Every charge brought against him
so far has been Of such a character
that the public records themselves
were all that were necessary to
disprove them. Can as much be
said Of his opponent?

WHEN lecherous old reprobate

the better element of society to
speak out. There is no better evil
dence of total depravity in a man
than an exhibition of an inordinate
desire to parade his dissolute and
misspent life before an indulgent
public. When a man becomes
proud of crooked and dissipated
career and openly boasts Of his bad

IFTHE Dawes commission hopes
to accomplish anything this year it
is not indicated by anything like
activity. And it is perhaps as
well for the commission to remain
inactive, as the leaders of the five
tribes are determined that no
change shall come as long as they
can prevent it and that whatever
congress does in the matter will be
done without the cooperation of
the Indians themselves. 1t is a
good bluff, but how it will work
remains to be seen.

THE CAMPAIGN OPENS.

The political campaign opened
in earnest last Saturday at Blue
jacket. Notwithstanding the rain
in the early morning a very large
crowd was in attendance. Both
the candidates for chief were pres
ent, as were also the candidate for
assistant chief on each ticket, be-
side many other prominent men.
Bob Ross made the opening speech.
He came out with a whole hand
full Of excuses for taking the S.
500 grass money. The burden of
the speech seemed TO be a desire
to justify or explain away a little
transaction that the people insist
on talking SO much about. Ross
was followed by Mr.. Mayes, the
Downing candidate. Mayes stood
up and talked like a man that
knew "where he was at" and
didn't have any apologies to make;
had an open record, public and
private, for the inspection of all.
Mayes had the crowd with him
without doubt, as was attested by
the cheering OF the people. Hi
Landrum and Wash Swimmer both
made speeches, as did also Judge
Benge, Bill Davis, Hastings,
Thompson, Norwood and Gid
Morgan.
