Colonel Benjamin M. Blackburn, Of Geor-

to the free-silver platform, and comes out
as a rabid advocate of lynch law in his

Cheap Electric Light.

From the Western Electrician: In
spite of the fact that Chicago is gener-
ally associated with the idea of NUM-
cipal ownership in the consideration
of all questions of public lighting, it is
fact that the city depends upon CEN
trail station companies for considerable
current to operate street lights, partic-
ularly in the southern part of the city.
Two of the companies, the Peoples
Electric Light and Power Company
and the Hyde Park Electric Light and
Power Company, have been engaged in
spirited rate-cutting war for some
time, and wherever the lines of both
companies were to be found the peo-
pie secured their service at very small
cost. The city controller, becoming
cognizant of this fact, determined to
secure some advantage for the city,
and he has accordingly asked both
companies to bid upon the city light
ing for the district which they occupy.

It Radiates Cold Instead OF Heat, and
VIII Bo Popular.
Prof. William M. Watts of Still
Pond, Nd, has a novelty in the form
of cold stove. The stove is for use
in the heated months of summer for
reducing the temperature, just as
stoves heated by fire are used to raise
the temperature in winter. BY the
use of salt, small quantity of ice and
q patented chemical the most intense
degree of cold is secured. So great is
the cold that 1t is as dangerous to
touch this cold stove when it is in
operation as 1t would be to place the
hand on a fire stove at high degree
of heat. The skin Is instantly taken
of and painful injuries are the result
of the slightest contact. Prof. Watts
states that during the hottest weather
the temperature Of room may be run
down and made pleasant by the use
of this novel device. Tire new process
was dicovered by college mate of the
teacher of the Still P5ud school. The
cost of operating the stove is very
slight.
