JOHN ". yGA1IEIvELL.
Inventor of the Gamewel Fire Alarm
System-New Haven's system.

Inventor of the Gamewell Fire Alarm
System-New Haven's system.
John Nelson Gamewell aged seven
ty-four years, who died at his home in
Hackensack, N, j., Sunday morning of
heart disease after brief illness, and
who was the inventor of the fire alarm
system in use in New Haven and many
other cities, was the son of Methodist
preacher, who was we'll known in the
south, and who had two sons in the
church. He was born near Camden, S.
c., where he was educated and passed
his childhood. He early manifested an
interest in electricity, studying every
work on the subject he could procure,
and soon mastered the mechanical re-
qurements that enabled him to fill the
office of operator in Camden. Here he
continued his studies with practical re-
suits leading to future benefits and
distinction AS postmaster of Camden
Mr.. Gamewell found 1t necessary to
visit Washington on business Here
he conceived his first idea of the fire
alarm system, and in company with
James Dunlap, capitalist from Cam
den, he went to Boston to investigate
a crude system established by Farmer
G. Charming, the result being its pur-
chase with all rights. The energy, In
telligence and skill of Mr.. Gamewell
soon developed the fire alarm into prac-
teal utility, and its Introduction was
begun in the city of st. Louis, where
Mr., Gamewell put in his first plant
II a
leans, and was engaged in wiring
Charleston, S. c.. when the war broke
out. This suspended operations and
when the war broke out fwypfwyp
caused a great loss to those interested
in the enterprise, the Gamewell patents
being confiscated by the government
and disposed of to other parties who
utilized them in several large cities
During the war Mr.. Gamewell had
charge of the confederate state nitrate
works near Columbia, S. c., which was
the most important of its class in the
south Aster the war Mr.. Gamewell
came north, and after long and expen
sive litigation succeeded in recovering
his patents. The firm OF Gamewell &
Co. was then organized, James M
Gardiner, a lifelong friend of Game
WELL being one of it's most active mem
bers. The firm has carried on the
business since.
Mr.. Gamewell took active interest in
all matters affecting the advancement
of Hackensack. where he built a large
residence on State street. He was a
promoter of the New Jersey Midland
railroad and lost good deal of money
in connection with that enterprise, and
favored all public improvements. His
generosity was especially marked to-
wards the Methodist church, of which
he was for years an active member and
officer. He was at one time active In
the Masonic order. Mr. Gamewell
leaves six children-Mrs. N. w. Heath,
Mrs. John Med. Gamewell and Mrs. H.
L. Burns of Hackensack; Mrs. A. III.
futile, wife of the Rev. A. H. Tuttle of
Newark, and the Rev. Frank D. Game
we'll now missionary in Japan.

THE ARMY WORM.

Their Great Numbers Due to the Dry
Spring-The Pests Ravages Decreasing.
Willimantic, July 20.-Prof. Rooms.
president of Storrs Agricultural coll
lege, was seen tonight relative to the
army worm, which is becoming such
pest in this state He said the worm is
member of the cut-Worm family, and
that its presence in such large numbers
at this season Is due to peculiar condi-
lions. The dry spring was favorable
to its propagation, and the absence of
its enemies which ordinarily hold 1t in
check, permitted 1T to multiply rapidly.
He said the pest never became general,
and that it soon overruns itself. He
predicted that 1t will soon die out and
that its ravages have about reached
their height He was asked if there
would be a recurrence of the plague
next year. and replied he did not think
So There are very few cases on rec
ord where it has appeared in the same
section two consecutive years. Paris

cient method of battling the enemy
When the worm is seen to be approach
ing a field of grain or grass, if the
ground is thoroughly sprayed with q
solution Of the poison it will effectually
check their progress. Or, if the tract
on which the worm is feeding be sur
rounded with q belt of sprayed land it
will be found that the whole horde will
be destroyed.

San Francisco, July 20-Advices re-

to take observations Of the solar
eclipses are f1ocking to Japan, TIE
yacht Coronet, with party of United
States scientists, reached Yokohama On
June %. Among the party We're Cap

The eclipse will begin rear Shetland
Islands, off the coast of Scotland
Thence it's track curves upward across
the north coast of Norway, through
Lapland, bisecting the southernmost
island of the Nova Zembla group; then
crosses Siberia to the Gulf of Tartary
and south to the Island of YeZo. The
central line of eclipse nearly touches
Cape Soya, the extreme northern point
of the island, from which it runs
southeast, leaving the coast at Akeshi.
A number of mountain peaks, some
reaching to the height of 1000 feet, rise
along thescentral line, and meteorolog-
ical observations have determined that
these elevations offer superior advan-
tages to astronomers.
On the Island of Yezo the eclipse will
begin at sos O'Clock on August 8, and
will last two minutes and forty Sec
onds.
1t is proposed to establish a large
equatorial mount which will have TWEEN
ty-five instruments pointed at the sun,
and which viii be operated automati-
cally by electricity. The instruments
will take between 500 and 600 negatives
of the corona.
Professor Schaeberle of Lick observa-

The French scientists came about the
same time, and the party of English
astronomers is expected in three days.
