IN THE ELECTRICAL WORLD.

"A small electric lamp is being used
nstead of a bell in some telephone ex-
changes in England. The call for con-
nection lights the lamp.

observatory Office in Washington.
The first electric saw-mill on the
Pacific coast is now building at Ia
coma. 1t is an experiment, which, if
successful, will mean much for the
greater development of the lumber re-
gion about Puget Sound.
Electricity is supplied for pfen-
nigs, - cents, per unit at Frankfort
on-the- Main: the lowest rate previous
ly was 10 pfennigs, 21S cents, at Mu-
mich, where the Isar supplies the pow
er. In London the average rate is II
cents per unit
There are now over five hundred
street railway corporations in the state
of Pennsylvania, where eight years
ago there were about sixty. The re-
markable increase is due almost en-
tirely to the adoption of electricity as

Electric motors of suitable designs
are now attached to the driving shaft
of printing press, in place of one of
the pulleys. The machine can then be
run at any of five different speeds, or
backed up at a slow rate, simply by
moving lever. Such a press is said
to run more steadily than one with
belts. and the frictional electricity de-
veloped by betting is entirely done
away with. 1t has been used in Boston
for some time.
In the special Niagara number of
Cassels Magazine, just issued, there is
a description at length and in detail of
the work that has been done at Mag
ara Falls for the commercial utiliza-
tion of the great power that has so
long gone to waste, and in connection
wit this work Mr.. Tesla is quoted as
saying that Niagara Falls power can
be transmitted to New York and Chi
cago, and there sold in competition
with steam power generated from coal.
An idea of the extraordinary ex-
pansion in the telegraph and telephone
traffic is suggested in some figures on
the simple item of poles. During the
last five years one Connecticut dealer
alone has shipped 15O, 100 roles to the
various lines he has constructed. One
leading telephone company has taken
from him over 100 carloads for ordina-
nv lines. as well as 1000 sticks for
long-distance lines. For telegraph
lines the demand is also continuous.
One telegraph company has made a
contract for this year for minimum
supply of 10000 poles, the poles range
in length from forty to sixty feet. A
gang of fifty men will build one mile

In Style.

Pique dresses are handsome when
tailor-made; the seams are Tapped and
stitched like cloth dresses; an element
of dressiness is introduced in the re-
vers and cuffs, which are trimmed with
broderie Anglaise. Heavy yellow lace
is sometimes used with rather bizarre
effect. The dead whiteness of some
of these costumes is relieved by a
sailor collar and broad mousquetaire
cuffs in dark or art blue, red or buff.
Buff with black pin dots is extremely
stylish for revers upon white pique or

MUSLIN CURTAINS.
Directions for Laundering the Summer
Hangings.

Hangings.
Exceedingly pretty effects may now
be obtained by the use ofsheer draper
ries in color. These usually are cotton
muslins, though the Madras draperies
that copy stained-glass effects are
mixed with silk and wool. In the SIM
pie colored muslins. which sell at thir-
ty-fve or fifty cents yard, the very
prettiest effects may be obtained.
Thus there are cream grounds, fig
ured with delft blue iris, pale rose
colored lilies oryellow daffodils, which
make most charming draperies for
rooms in blue, pink or yellow. The
Madras draperies and others which are
a medley of oriental tones of color,
are suitable for dining-rooms,l libraries.
as well as parlors, while the simpler
muslin draperies are used in bedrooms
and less elaborate country parlors.
Nearly all these draperies require
the same treatment in washing, and
can be laundered at home with little
care. Soak the curtains for an hour or
so in cold water, in which handful of
salt has been added for every gallon.
When this is done wash them in luke
warm soapsuds, sousing them up and
down and rubbing them as little as
possible, and then very gently. When
this is done rinse them through sew
eral waters, so as to get all the soap
suds out of them.
In case the color will bear it few
drops of ammonia to the gallon may be
added to the soapsuds in which the
curtains are washed. The only way
to find out whether this will be safe is
to test sample of the goods in little
water treated with ammonia. Dry the
curtains in kitchen with a
hot fire, so that they will dry as quick
" as possible, and with the shades
drawn, as even the presence of a strong
light will sometimes fade them. After
this starch them in a very thin, cold
starch, enough simply to give body
to the goods. and no more. Madras
curtains require a very little starch
and must be done up soft, but they
can not be left without starch, or they
will hang sleazily.
After starching the muslins, squeeze
them as dry as you can with the hand
and roll them up in plain, white mus
lin TO absorb the starch. When they
are very nearly dried, iron them on the
wrong side. using cloth between the
curtain and iron. BE careful to keep
the edges straight.-N. Y. Tribune.

Hard to Get Accurate News.

New YoRK, May ia special to the
World from Santiago, Cuba, says:
1t is almost impossible to get accurate
news of the revolution to the United
States. Information sent by mail and
telegraph is suppressed by government
censors, who are acting under orders.
From news brought by men directly
from interior provinces, it appears that
all the eastern end OF the island, with
the exception of Garrisoned towns, is at
the mercy of bands of insurgents. They
are prowling around within six miles of
the city of Santiago, and the Spanish
soldiers are afraid of them. The village
of Cainey, only five miles from here, has
been attacked by band of rebels under
the leadership of Victoriano Garcoono.
The inhabitants fled in terror.
The government troops are now in
close pursuit of Maceo, who is continu-
ally Obliged to change his headquarters.
He has just camped on coffee planta-
ton in the mountains between here and
Guantanamo. He managed to hold a
conversation there with his fret lieuten-
ants and the representatives, of nearly
5000 armed followers. He assigned
them to duty at different parts OF the
province, but retained 1000 men to act
under his own direction. Recruits are
coming IN faster than he can provide
arms for them.

San Luis, sangola and Christie. because
the Spaniards are using them as the

Any one who has ever had an attack
of intlammatory rheumatism will rejoice
with Mr.. j. A. Slumm, 220 Boyle
Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate
escape from siege of that distressing
ailment. Mr.. Stumm is foreman of
Merrian's confectionery establishment.
Some months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street on an
errand, he was caught out in the rain.
The result was that when ready to go
home that night he was unable to walk,
owing to infiammatory rheumatism. He
was taken home, and on arrival was
placed in front of good fire and
thoroughly rubbed with Cham berlain's
Pain Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed with this
liniment, and by morning was relieved
of all rheumatic pains. He now takes
especial pleasure in praising Cham ber-
lain's Pain Balm, and always keeps a
bottle of it in the house. For sale by

They LOOK Wen on Paper.

SAN Francisco, MAY l5.-Articl les of
incorporation have been fled by the CO.
operative commonwealth, a cooperative
association with the following directors:
Mary E. Squires. George w. Sells, E. j.
Hicks, Miss A. Swain and ]. K. Phillips.
There will be mass meeting tonight in
the lecture-room of the old St. Marcus
church, to present the plans of the COM
monwealth.
The cooperative commonwealth was
first organized in Seattle, Wash. It is
nonsectarian and draws no color line.
In an interview yesterday with Miss
Addie Swan, the secretary of the local
branch, she explained that the main
feature of the plan for cooperation is
the reserve, or development fund. This
was her argument. "On basis of 5OO,-
600 men, 10 cents per day for six months
or $50 working days, accumulates the
marvellous sum of 81, SOC, 900, and in a
year $4,000, 900. The society is now or
ganized as a national body, and has at
its command 500, 900 men and $l5, 900 900
of capital. 1t can Immediately set all of
its members at work in its own employ.
The savings of the people, now in the
1anks, amount to about $4,000, 900 COO.
This could be placed in the cooperative
savings banks and percentage used to
establish new industries instead of being
loaned at enormous rates of interest to
serve as dragnets to gather in the land
and its products for the benefit of few
commercial fishermen.
This reserve fund could be invested in
purchasing or constructing railroads to

free the commonwealth from Transports
tion companies.
For instance, with this reserve fund
of, say $4,000, 900, a railroad could be
constructed from Portland to San Fran
cisco with branches to Stockton, San
Jose, Los Angeles, Fresno and all other
important points on the coast, and the
surplus could be replaced while the work
of construction was going on. Thous-
ands of acres of mineral land could be
developed and thousands of men em-
ployed who are now idIe."
Mayor Sutro has promised to donate
200 acres of land in Round valley to the
commonwealth. The Spring Water
vslley Company gives water free to the
community.

Important Papers Bearing ON
the Venezuela Trouble.
SUPPORT vENEzuELA's CLAIM
A Map Made by England Twenty Years
Ago Shows the boundary as
Venezuela Claims 1t.

WASHINGTON, May 15.-AccordIng to
advices received here important British
documents have been found at Honolulu
as to the pending British Venezuela
boundary question. in which the United
States has urged arbitration as a means
of settlement.
Assistant Surveyor-General Curtis j.
Lyons, of Hawaii, has examined them
and has made map accompanied by q
statement, which, 1t is stated, supports
the Venezuelan contention, even on evil
dence thus far presented by the British.
The records brought to public atten-
tion by Mr.. Lyons were furnished Ha-
waii by the British foreign Office when
Hawaii was a monarchy, largely under
British control. They are on file in the
surveyors Office at Honolulu. Lyons
was led to make an investigation bv the
publication last month of the British
map of Guiana territory. On comparing
this with the map furnished by the
foreign Office 20 years ago, he found the
boundary line entirely changed. The
first map gave the line as Venezuela
claims it should be. The last map shifts
the line far to the westward, and includes
as British territory about 10000 square
miles which the first map showed to be
clearly Venezuelan territory.
The old map was made by the Royal
Geographical Society, OF England, and
thereafter given official approval and
sent out by the foreign Office. It is
therefore considered of scientific as well
as of official value. Mr.. Lyons says:
''The area thus taken in. as shown on
these maps themselves, is 10000 square
miles or more, larger than the area of
either Massachusetts or Vermont. What
Venesuelans are claiming we have not
the means of knowing, but it is very
natural they should claim at least that
British Guiana should adhere to the
original map"

Judge Hewitt FavOrs Railroad Com
missiOners.


Albany, Or, May. 15.-Judge Hewitt
today rendered decision in the case OF
j. B. Eddy, one of Oregon's railroad
commissioners, vs.. Harrison r. Kincsid,
secretary of state. On April IL a writ of
mandamus was issued commanding the
secretary to draw warrant on the state
treasury in favor of Eddy, for $245.55,
the balance due as salary as railroad
commissioner for the quarter ending
March 81, 1895. To this writ the de-
fendant interposed general demurrer,
presenting three points of argument:
First-That the law providing for the
election of railroad commissioners by
the legislature is unconstitutional and
void.
Second -Conceding the authority of
the failure to elect commissioners, the
failure to elect at the last biennial ses-
sion created vacancy.
Third-That the Offices of the COM
missioners became vacant at the expira-
ton of the last biennial term by reason
of the neglect of the commissioners to
file new oath of office.
After lengthy argument, and cita-
ton of authorities, including decisions
by Judges Lord and Strahan, while on
the supreme bench of Oregon, that the
appointing power is within the scope of
the legislature, Judge Hewitt, holds that
no vacancy exists, the constitution pro-
viding that all officers, except members
of the legislature, shall hold their Offices
until their successors are elected and
qualified. He also holds that their
continuation in Office is part of the
original terms, and that no new oath or
bond is required. The demurrer is ac-
cordingly overruled, leaving the writ re
quiring the secretary of state to pay the
salary in force. The case will probably
go to the supreme court for final de-
cision.

Bees That Make bad Honey,

Lovers Of the product of the busy
bee will find it a wise precautlon to
have their honey tested as to its purity
before they eat 1t, or use it in a Gull
mary way" Prof. Remington gave a
warning something like this at a recent
meeting of pharmacists, and at the
same time told Of a German who was
extensively engaged in bee culture, and
who had his apiary close to a sugar re-
finery. A lot of rank molasses was ac-
cesslble to the bees, and they gorged
themselves on 1t. The result was their
honey was equally rank, and unfit for
use. On another occasion the bees fed
on blooming digitails, and their honey
proved to be poisonous. Natural honey.
therefore, is liable TO vary very much.
and occasionally, when it looks best
and is sweetest, it may be loaded with
poison. Unscrupulous bee-farmers are
accustomed to forcing their bees to in
crease their output by feeding them
sweetened water. The honey, of course,
