Hn. For the White Mountains.


1t seems as II everybody was headed
for the White Mountains at this time
of the year. To many the great beauty
of mountain scenery in the fall is
something unknown but travellers have
always declared it the season above all
others to see majestic nature at her
loveliest and the cool refreshing
breezes are simply health Civ
ing elixirs. 1t is an additional
pleasure to visit the "Switzer-
land of America, the White
Mountains with large excursion
party, for there one may find con-
genial companions who can appreci-
ate and sympathize with each other
over the ecstatic enthusiasm one is
sure to indulge in over the scenery.
There you will find the artist who can
see beauties i'll bits of rocks that
would be overlooked by the less prac-
ticed eye; there also the traveller, who
compares the view to some in foreign
lands, and declares the White Noun
tains unsurpassed in the whole wide
world, in fact, one is sure to
forget the tediousness of travel

excursionists. The Boston & Maine

A French electrician, NJ. D. Arson.
val, has succeeded accurately in
measuring the electric energy of the
torpedo fish, and the result is astound-
ing. A fish sixteen inches across
gives an electric current of two to ten
amperes, with difference of potential
energy of fifteen to twenty volts,
capable of lighting an incandescent
lamp of ten candles. If the fish be
teased it betrays its feelings 80
violently that the carbon filament
flies off into vapor. 1t is mere fsh's
play for the torpedo to illume a
Geissler tube or fire dynamite cart
ridge. NJ Arsonval is of the opinion
that the torpedoes have a special
muscle which instinctively or de-
liberately gives electrical instead of
