Every Kind of Work Shown to Which
the Force Can BE Applied.
The national electrical exposition, under
the auspices of the National Electric Light
Association opened at the Grand Central
Palace in New York last night. 1t was
opened by the pressing of golden key by
Governor Morton, which sent out an cleo
trio current that discharged cannons in
San Francisco New Orleans, st. Paul. Au-
grsta, Me-, and London. England, and from
the roof of the exposition building
An immense gathering attended the
the National Electric Light Association
introduced Mayor Wurster of Brooklyn as
chairman. Mayor Wurster, after a brief
speech introduced Governor Morton who
spoke as follows:
MIR. President and Officers of the Ma
tional Electric Exposition: feel honored
by the invitation which you have extended
to me to release the electric current gen.
Grated by the power of the great cataract

opened"
telegram was received from Mayor
Taylor Of San Francisco.
w. H. Preece, who has charge of the land
forces of Great Britain, telegraphed In an
sWer to the signal given: wish your expo
sition every possible success"
At the exposition there is not only the
most brilliant exempliflcation of electric
lighting, but a supplementary misceIlao
neous exhibition, which carries the display
for interest and variety far beyond its
predecessors. There are some 300 indi-
v1dual exhibitors, and these embrace, viz
tually every branch of work to which
electricity in any form has been applied.

thus leaving so, 1000, 600 feet that the citizens
used. The police census Of 1893 gives the
population of Washington city as 212,OO0,
which shows that but one in eight use the
gas, while in Lowell one in every two fam
lies use 1t, and, as shown by the above ia
ble the proportion In Great Britain of those
who use the gas is much greater than with
U.s.
The simple fact that there the average
price Is sixty cents, while here it is more
than twice as much, accounts for the diff
ference. If gas was furnished here at any
Where near the price charged over there,
the consumption would be more than
doubled, and the company would make a
handsome profit on the increased output

Charlestown East Boston, Lynn, and other
clues adjoining, with a population alto
gether of 10000 more than Manchester, and
they sold, all told, 5Sl 900, 600, or less than
one-sixth as much as Manchester. In fact
Manchester sends out more gas than the
entire state OF Massachusetts! And the dis
proportion is even greater in other parts of
the United States than 1t is in Massachu-
sets.
This disproportion in the amount of gas
SOLO there and here Is due to the difference
IN price and to nothing else; for as every
lntelligent person knows, the citizens of
the United States indulge in luxuries and
I'VE Tar more extravagantly than do the
people IN European countries. Our people
would use FAR more If sold at a fair price
Ter, as the president of one of the comma
MES SAID at their annual meeting The
idea of using gas for fuel is a popular one
ana the public would be glad to so use II If

II is astonishing, in view of these indis-
putable facts, that the company here and
It's friends do not see how much better IT
would be- both for the company and the
public, to reduce the price Of gas, especial

for talk about the days meals with the
priestess of that domain. A few simple facts
will help her. One is that cooked-over meat
is most indigestible. 1t may be heated through
in hot gravy, or minced fine and rolled in
ball OF mashed potato, but for youthful
the cooking point. Meat pies are most whole
some when made of fresh meat, and with a.
biscuit rather than pastry crust. A Vegeta-
BILE pie is dish children usually like To
make it deep dish should be filled with sliced
potatoes, onions, chopped carrots and turnips
OF salt and very little white pepper, and
the dish nearly filled with gravy or stock
Cook the vegetables until nearly tender be-
fore putting on a biscuit crust Tomatoes
sliced and alternated with carrots onions
and macaroni, or mushrooms and potatoes,
with very little onion, or potato pie, with
onions and apples to flavor it, are all Yaria-
tions of this dish. A pound of juicy, fresh
steak, minced fine, and alternating with sliced
potatoes, the whole covered with thin crust
or layer of grated bread crumbs put on
only long enough to brown before being taken
from the oven, is another nouriShing and
very appetiZing pie. Green salads with French
dressing should be much oftener found in tho
ch1idren's menu than they are, and fruit
raw early in the day, but cooked when served
at night. AS to cake, rich puddings and pies
instead OF the sweeping never of some
mothers, the more moderate scheme of one
recently met seems wisest.
81 give the children said She "cake and
sweets just often enough to prevent their
feellng aggrieved. l got the hint from my
Oldest boy some years ago. when he came to
me one day with the plant. Why don't we
ever have cake or pies? Other fellows do;
! hear them say So. As to candy, not in
candy, homemade, If possible, but pure, at
all events"
