of oxen ARE roasted nearly whole, upon
mighty tunspits suspended over deep

of the uniforms. Most of the democratic
regalia will involve play upon color,
and be designed to use silver gray cloth
wholly or in large part. Republican

instances, select some form of Napoleon

trousers, boots and cooked Hat familiar
in the pictures and seen upon the stage

intrusion upon the campaign and will
fight as shy of it as the enthusiasm of
their followers will permit
A harmless substitute will be the
"dinner pail brigade" of men either
carrying tin dinner pals, or wearing
them upon their hats A popular adj
dition to such parade is wagon drawn
by ropes in the hands of two lines of
men and bearing n gigantic tin dinner
pail eight or ten feet high. Upon its
bulging side can be printed some such
legend as: "Sixty-six new tin plants.
Capacity, 100000 boxes. Who did it?"
(The American rolling tin plants were
on July 1, so in number, the dipping
works 81 in addition). The possible
variations of the dinner pail idea are
almost infinite.
Democratic parades will avoid the
tariff question, following the lead of
the convention, which recommended
letting it alone for the present. Of
fensive campaigns are always stronger
than defensive ones. and the party fight
will be made on the silver issue. This
will suggest truculent transparencies,
differing in different sections of the
country. Where South Carolina pa
rade might paint mo More Six-Cent
Cotton" on the muslin of its trans
parencies, one in Iowa will declare
that "Eight.Cent Oats Means 200
Cent Dollar" Transparencies are east
ly and quickly made anywhere; cam
paign uniforms are made mainly in the
large cities by few firms which fur
nish them very cheaply by the guam
tity.
Doubtless the campaign will become
bitter and hot in no great time, and be
disfigured on both sides by many re-
gretable features. In general, how
ever, more attention will be given than
in the past to making people laugh.
The comic element in parades is pretty
well looked after nowadays. A COM
pany of Trilbys, wearing wide, loose
coats, such as Trilby wore on her first
appearance to the three musketeers of
the brush, and enormous Tapping boots
filled out with straw is funny device
for which costume makers expect con-
siderable call. 1t is unnecessary to re-
mark that there were no Trilbys in 1892.

New York, July 25.-In the good old
times, not so very old, an evil-smelling
Kerosene torch and an oilcloth cape to
keep the dripping oil off ones business
suit was the height of elegance for cam
paign parade wear. All that is changed,
and the present queer, multi-angular
campaign will present aus many points
of novelty in it's street professions as
it's new combinations of the personnel
of the old parties.
The most popular of the innovations
will, without doubt, be the bicycle pa
rade. Both Mckinley and Hobart are
members of cycle clubs, and the latter
is an active good roads advocate. Al
ready, in many parts of the country,
Mckinley and Hobart" bicycle corps
have been formed for parading pur-

On the right of the line the same legend,

OF course, too, with more riders, ad-
ditbonal notices can be spelled out,
one word to each man. And, of course,
the democratic paraders are quite as
free to use bicycles as the republicans,

CHICAGO, July 29.-The reports as to
the condition of the crops throughout
the country and the general effect of
the weather on the growth, cultivation
and harvest OF same were Tuesday
made by the directors of the several
climate and crop sections. The reports
received at Chicago were as follows:
In the states of the central valleys
and on the Atlantic and east gulf
coasts the week has been very favor
able for all growing crops, but exces-
sive rains to some extent retarded farm
work, especially thrcshing, and caused
much injury TO grain in shock. Heavy
rains have also injured crops in the
Ohio valley, especially in West Vir-
ginia, where local frcshets have been
very destructive.
Indiana reports a great crop, almost
assured. Over the eastern portion of
the cotton region and in Texas cotton
has made good growth, but in Louisi-
ana it is suffering from drought and
complaints of rust and shedding are
quite general.
Kentucky-All crops injured to some
extent by too much rain and very great
local damage reported in portions of
northern and central counties. Wheat
and oats are sprouting badly in shock.
General complaint of tobacco French
ing on low grounds Corn still looks
good but fields are overgrown with
weeds.
Indiana-Heavy rains in localities
did damage; wheat, rye and oats in
shock are sprouting and rotting; much
hay is spoiled; threshing and plowing
were delayed; great crops of corn and
potatoes almost assured; some corn in
bottom LANDS was under water; tobac-
co nearly topped in good condition.
Ohio-A bnormally cloudy with
heavy rains which badly flooded corn,
oats, hay, wheat. gardens, potatoes and
tobacco on low lands and greatly re-
tarded all farming operations Oats
and wheat rotting and sprouting in
shock and stack, and ground too wet to
stand weight of farm machinery To-
bacco and gardens made fair growth

suggests many new parade features
never before possible, at least for mod
crate cost. About the most easily man
aged of these is given by the use of elee
trio headlights cased in glass bulbs of
many different colors and worn upon
the marchers' hats. These lights come
at from five to ten dollars each, and may
be furnished much cheaper before the
season is over. They work like the
electric bicycle lamp, deriving their
power from small portable dry bat
terry carried by the marcher.
The case with which trolley cars can
be fitted out with glowing lights of
many tints has set many men thinking
out ways and means of holding trolley
car parades without interfering too
much with the regular traffic; and of
course there are always fireworks, in
which line very little novelty has as yet
developed.
1t looks nav as if women's march
ing clubs would be formed on both sides
of the politicarfence and in many parts
of the country.
A queer novelty of no earthly use for
parade purposes, is the political shirt
front, dickey with the portraits of
candidates printed on the bosom.
The talent" who figured on BANDS
nomination by the democrats have had
to stack away hosts of Bland badges
and buttons made up in advance, and
have had to work night and day on Bry-
an badges and buttons. But such is
business.
Yes, it will lie a hot ard picturesque
campaign; and may the country PROS

REMARKABLE OLD ANCHOR.

[coPYRIGHT. 1861
Some years ago / was commissioned
to investigate all the places connected
with the advent of Columbus into the
history of America, in order to procure
series of photographs for exhibition
in the great Columbian exposition; and
in pursuance of this idea l visited, not
only all the scenes of his adventurous
voyages, but also those of his earlier
life in Spain. The discovery, however,
which gave me greatest pleasure, and
which l consider the most Important,
consists in the old anchor-now III the
Field museum at Chicago-which, |
have every reason to believe, was once
carried at the bow of Columbus flag
ship, the Santa Maria"
1t had been conveyed to me by a
learned Spanish physician of Santo
Domingo that there was an anchor eX-
tant, on the coast of Hayti, which came
across the Atlantic with Columbus
when he made his first voyage to
American. l was at FIST skeptical, but
upon investigation became convinced
Vi the tTuuH ol lue puyslcldu . Stale-
ment. To show how we reasoned, from
an old anchor which had lain hundreds
of years in the woods, back to the time
of Columbus and his caravels, it is neces-
sary briefly to view the course of that
first voyage along the coast of Hayti
After Columbus had discovered the
first land in the Bahamas, and had
eoasted portion of the north shore
of Cuba, he made q bold push across
the wide channel and sighted the noun
tains of Hayti.
The natives, who thronged to the
shore in great numbers, were still liv-
ing in state of primeval savagery, but
were-if we may believe the statement
of Columbus himself-simple and good
hearted, and accorded to the strangers
a hearty welcome. The three vessels of
Columbus sailed slowly from port to
port, everywhere joyously entertained
by the happy Indians, until, on the eve

enormously rapid rate, they produce
the new white light.
Every wire contaiES latent cleo
trical force. This line OF force is dis
tributed in every direction, but when
an electrical impulse is impaired to
the wire, although it may not develop
into a current of electricity, the lines
of force are all turned in one direction.
They no longer run in all directions,
but are parallel to the long AXIS of the
wire. The wire is then ready 10 receive
current.
One molecule communicates it's move
ments to another until the initial inn
pulse given by the induced current
travels along the entire length of the
wire, and is caught up by the air mole
cules in the globe. 1t is the same as
if a row of billiard balls are placed in
row. A blow is struck at one end OF
the row and all the balls will remain
unmoved except the ball at the extreme
other end. The ball will be driven
away at a considerable rate of speed.
The force of the blow was received by
the first ball, communicated to the
next, and SO on, until it shot the last ball
away from the rest. This is the process
that takes place in the globe and pro-
duces the light.
In explaining this process Edison de-
clared that he was himself surprised
when he found that the intense white
light given off by the tungstate was not
accompanied by corresponding de-
gree of heat. The 1ncandescent lamp
transforms IS per cent of the electrical
force into heat, and only five per cent.
is turned into light. This Is tremen-
dous loss from a commercial point of
view. The new lamp is absolutely free
from heat. That was ascertained be-
yond peradventure with the most deli
cate Instruments. This establishes the
fact that nearly the whole force used
in the new lamp is employed in produc-
ing light. Edison does not explain the
why and wherefore; he simply accepts
it as a fact.
The high amount Of electricity re-
quired in the incandescent lamp to
overcome the tremendous loss of cleo
trical energy, and which is turned into
heat, is not needed here. This means
an astounding cheapness in lighting
and consequent commercial gain. The
new lamp will last as long as the globe
lasts. It does not have to be refilled
with expensive films, and it furnishes
the best light that has yet been pro
duced.
A two-candle new lamp gives out to
the eye almost twice the illuminating
effect that a two-candle incandescent
lamp does. This is explained on the
ground that the light is more pleasing
to the eye than the incandescent lamp.
1t is pure white light, the whitest
light known. The globe looks like
ground glass and is all aglow. The
curvature of the globe serves to in
tensify the light by DETECTING the flying
molecules of air from one crystal to an
other until the initial force is ex-
hausted.
There are fuorescent substances even
better than tungstate, but Edison Is
not yet prepared to make them known
If his experiments are as successful
with those as they have beenwith tung'
state there is no limit to the intensity
and beauty Of the light.

EDISON'S NEW LIGHT.
Something About the Develop
ments of Recent Weeks.
by the Use of Fluorcscent Substances tho
Wizard Has Produced u Lamp That
Gives Out Little Heat But
Brilliant Light.

Edison's new white light, which he
has called the fuorescent lamp, is
about ready for the market. In form it
is similar to the incandescent lamp
now in use, but in principle it is vastly
different. There is glass globe from
which part of the air inside has been
extracted, but there is no absolute
vacuum. Unlike the electric lamp, the
whole globe glows with a pure white
light of marvellous illuminating power.
This powerful light comes from
metallic crystal known as "tungstate,'
which is metal as heavy as gold. In
Germany it is known under the name
of tungsten" The Illuminating prop
erty, says the st. Louis Republic, is
due to peculiar attribute of the tung-
state crystal itself.
The fact that these crystals glow
when slightly rubbed was known to
the wizard Of Menlo Park, and he set
to work to use that property in the in
terest of science. The crystals are
fused into a glass globe by heating
the glass until it is soft. 1t then absorbs
the tungstate crystals and holds them
firmly when it cools.
Mr.. Edison says that he could get the
best results when using the crystals
on the sides of the globe. Two wires
enter the globe at one end, but do not
meet. By means of an induction cur
rent generated in faradic battery
the molecules of the wires are thrown
into motion and the impulse thus given
travels along the wires until 1t reaches
the ends inserted into the globe. This
molecular impulse is communicated to
the molecules of air in the globe. In
turn the air molecules are driven with
almost inconceivable rapidity against
the crystals of tungstate welded into
the inner walls of the glass. The i'm
pact causes the crystals to glow. The
glow caused by single blow of these
air molecules is, of course, very slight,
but multiplied thousands of times and
the blows repeated continuously at ali

After l had purchased the anchor
from its negro owner, had it shipped

it was sent to Chicago, and exhibited
