Edison's Opinion.

Scientists who have been experiment.
Ing with K rays do not credit the state.
ment from the Bennett Medical college
OF Chicago that the rays will destroy
the bacilli Of disease. Professors w. B.
Pratt and Hugh Wightman, electro
therapeutist and bacteriologist respec-
lively Of that college, are credited with
stating positively that the Roentgen
rays will destroy any disease germ
Professor Pratt's belief is that the mag
netic force from the x rays will pass
directly into the affected tissues and
electrolysis will result. EFF the K rays
are sound waves, as I believe" said
Thomas A Edison, there is no reason
to believe that they will have any effect
on disease germs. honestly hope yet
to find that I am mistaken in the sound
wave theory, but that now seems to be
the probable explanation of the phe-
nomena''
II only hope x rays will kill disease
germs. said Nicola Tesla. 1--WE have
experimental pretty thoroughly with
the bacilli of disease. but we have found
that the x rays apparently have no eff
feet on them. IF there are any bacteria
in my body, they surely must be dead
now If K rays will kill them"
DR.. William James Morton was much
amused by the statement that x rays
would destroy germs. "Such PROPOSE
tion." he said, lis utterly specious. 1t

buoys in harbors under patent Just
granted "a current actuated bell
buoy" Is what the inventor calls it.
The action from the force of the current
is wholly automatic. The float upon
which the superstructure and bell are
mounted cuts and shifts from side to
side A ball is confined in q tube under
the bell at its mouth, and having free
passage rs the float lists it strikes the
bell with great force. The bell will
ring equally well by the action Of the

The feature that is most novel is that
the bell is at its best when the sea is
smoothest Just SO long rs there is mo-
ton in the water, whether tidal or cur
rent it is sufficient to ring tho bell.
This feature will be most appreciated
by masters and pilots for the reason
that, rs n rule, a thick fog is accom-
panied by deathlike stiffness. 1t is
then that the skipper anxiously feels
his way, listening for some familiar
guiding sound. He has no hope of hear

CUBA OF THE EAST.
Remarkable War Carried on by the
Dutch For Twenty-three Years.

Remarkable War Carried on by the
Dutch For Twenty-three Years.
It Is curious how little attention is
given by the outside world to the re-
markable war still proceeding in Acheen
in the Dutch East Indies. For Just 90
years Holland has been endeavoring to
conquer this eastern Cuba, and she has
not succeeded yet. In fact, according to
the latest mail advices, the situation is
worse than ever.
The famous fighting chief, Toekoe
Omar, after show Of loyalty, has
again broken out into open rebellion,
and Governor Vanderwyck has already
cabled for re-enforcements, although
General Vetter, with several thousand
men, has only Just been sent out.
This little war has already cost many
millions of dollars and the lives Of
moro than 10000 Dutchmen, while
there is scarcely o village in Holland
which does not contain some poor
wretch inyalided home, suffering from
horrible disease peculiar to the pestifer-
GUS country. New York Sun.

Roentgen Discusses Pratt's Discovery.

Roentgen Discusses Pratts Discovery.
In accordance with your request,
went in search Of Professor Konrad
Roentgen. I located the celebrated sci
enlist in Baden Baden at the Hotel de
France.
Professor Roentgen, in order to obtain
little rest from his arduous labors of
the winter semester, has been on the
Riviera on two weeks vacation. On
his return from Italy he stopped over
for a day or two here, ON his way to
Stuttgart, where he expects to continue
his Investigations all summer.
II suppose you have heard of the
wonderful results obtained by the appli-
cation of your discovery in Chicago a
few days ago?" was my Introductory
query.

interest. especially since I knew Pro-
fessor W. B. Pratt professionally long
before he was electro therapeutist of
Bennett Medical college. esteem him
highly, and though, not being a ply
stefan, cannot pass definitely on his
discovery until the results are ocularly
demonstrated in my presence, vet l

ing things he cannot accomplish.

fetal results from the X rays2" asked.

astonish me. fully expected as much

When His Nerve Failed.

The cruelties Of the French revolution
lose nothing by the manner in which
Baron Ferdinand Rothschild has de-
scribed them in his book:
''By far the most wantonIy savage of
the Republican commissioners was Lee
bon, who exercised the powers Of a pro-
consul at Arras The Marquis de We'll
fort was lying bound under the knife of
the guillotine when Lebon, who was
looking on from the balcony of neigh
boring house, made a sign to suspend
the execution. The mob, fancying be
meant to pardon the condemned man,
were greatly surprised at such unwont-
ed clemency on his part Lebon, how
ever, took a newspaper from his pocket,
read out long account of victory the
Republican army had just gained and
ended by shouting to the marquis, vii
lain, go and inform your friends OF the
news Of our victories
'sMichelet relates that q man known
for his colossal strength and iron nerve
betted that he would stand by and sex
the executions from first to last without
faltering. For some time he unfinch
ingly bore the sight, but when younf
girl named Nichole, a mere child, step
ped forward, lay down ON the planl
and gently asked the executioner, AN
1 right this way?' his brain reeled anC
| he dropped in dead faint.
