be to make the groundless charge that sii-
yer miners are at the bottom Of this whole
reconciliation movement.
Either the people are better informed on
this matter than Mr.. Atkinson, or that man
is selling his shallow soph:stry for gold.
Just read this:
This conflict corresponds very closely to
that between freedom and slavery. These
mine owners are THE prototypes of the
slave holders, and their advocates in the
house and senate are the prototypes OF the
senator's and representatives who, at the
6ctat:on of the slave holders, left their
posts"
"Who ever heard Of prototype as a
follower before? The Shareholder preceded
the silver miner. How then can the miner
be the prototype? Atkinson needs to learn
English before teaching finance, a criticism
l would not have made were it not to show
how pompuous this swell philosopher IS,
and how erratic he may be. Nobody but
such a presenter OF i'll digested thoughts
would see any similarity between the great
conflict Of slavery and freedom, and that
between bi and mono-metalism, unless the
reverse OF what he suggests. When that
conflict began slavery was the autocrat;
now it is gold. Freedom waged the war

PEELED to do the same thing with the gold
bugs; and now, as then, when triumphant
at the ballot box, the chances are that gold
will instigate rebellion in behalf OF Brit
sh finance. The rest of his interview has
a double meaning; if anything, that silver
advocates must be defeated at all hazards,
and forced to absolute, final and uncondi-
tional surrender
The girl who lives on five cents a day"
may surrender to Mr.. Atkinson, but the
survivors of the great western army who
hewed their way to the gulf in the late war,
and their soma will see to it that what they
vote for succeeds, even if New York and
Boston becomes as Babylon and Carthage.
We advise the bankers of the east to
paddock Atkinson before he makes any
more threats of carnage, as such language
only serves to render the people of the great
west familiar with what goldbugs intend
and of course to forearm themselves. The
wonted fires Of patriotism still live in the
ashes Of our dead heroes. Beware how you
pile fuel on them. A. e. BALL.

A SILVER WEDDING.

Mr. and Mrs. James Tolles' Friends h.
 wade Their Home in West Haven't
 Was a Pleasant Occasion.
 MT. James Tolles, the popular teller in the New Haven County National bank, found his home at ITO Elm street, West Haven, invaded last even- ing when he returned from his business in the city. The invaders were not hostile, however, and they came bearing silver tokens. It was the twenty fifth anniversary of the marriage of Mir and Mrs. Tolles and the company was the result Of a scheme arranged by the young folks of the family. The secret was kept from Mrs. Tolles until Thurs day morning, and the first intimation MT. Tolles had of the celebration was
 when he saw a number of friends who had wished him and his wife God speed on the second twenty-five years of nuptial bliss.
 With MT. and Mrs. Tolles, who re- ceived in the tastefully decorated front parlor, stood Miss Katherine Tolles, a daughter, and Miss Hattie, a niece of MT. and Mrs. Tolles.
 Serving were Miss Mabel Stevens, Miss Jennie Brown, Miss Jessie Tolles and Mrs Howard H. Thompson. They were assisted by Attorney George l., | Peck and Harry and James Tolles, jr. l So nicely had the self-constituted com mittee of arrangements planned the entertainment of the evening that the | time passed pleasantly and swiftly.

 and cake were served to the guests. | Among those received were: MT and Mrs. Silas Pardee, parents of Mrs.

TESLA COIL ExnrBIrED.

Interesting Exhibition of x Ray Apparatus
 at Yale Medical School Last Evening-A
 no Volt Current Increased to Over One
 Million Volts by the Tesla Coil.
 A new and powerful coil for produc- ing x rays has been purchased by the Yale medical school and last evening N. D. Parker of Boston, representing the firm from which the apparatus was purchased, gave most interest ing exhibition of the wonderful inVen- tion to small party at the medical school. MT. Parker is a skilled electri- elan and described the working of the wonderful apparatus in @ most compre- hensive manner Earlier in the even ing by means of 1t a needle was located in the foot of a woman who has been lame from that cause for some time To-day physicians will remove the needle.
 The new coil is called the Tesla coil and has the property of increasing the voltage of a 110 volt electric current, which is taken from the street wire, to over 1,000000 volts, this being about the voltage which is used in the Crooke l tube in order to get the so-called X ray photographs. At one end of the box in which the coil is encased Is a large induction coli, while at the other end of the box. submerged in paraflne 1 oil, which insulates all It's wires, is l the Tesla coil The current to which this coil amplifies a common current is of enormous voltage, and when two poles to which it is applied are drawn apart even to the distance of six inches a vivid stream of forked quivering fire of intense brilliancy darts from one pole to the other, precisely as the larg CT flashes of lightning dart among the clouds, the same forked appearance be- 1 ing produced while a cracking roar emanates from the current which is leaping from pole to pole.
 l When this high voltage is turned through the Crooke tube a most beau tiful effect is produced, the light within the tube instead of being white light showing all the colors of the rainbow in varying tints and brilliancy.
 MT. Parker had arranged a sort of 1 apparatus by which the guests might see the direct working of the Roentgen rays. A funnel shaped box with tung- state of calcium across the smaller end
 which focused the rays was placed be- fore the eyes and then any opaque object which was placed between the
 funnel and the Crooke tube appeared transparent. Several of those present placed their forearms before the appa- ratus and saw distinctly the bones ot
 their own hands and forearms, the ghastly effect causing some to shivei with that creepy" feeling.
 Among those who were present tC witness the working of the new coi
 were Superintendent of Schools Ken
 dall Principal Thomas of Hillhoust High school, Dr. Smith of the medica lschool and Judge Sheldon.
 1 MT Parker will give an exhibition ot
 the coil to party of invited guests
 this evening. It is said that Prof. A W. Wright, whose experiments with x
 rays have attracted widespread atten- tion among the scientists, has pur-
 chased one of the new coils.
