THE NEW LIGHT AT HOME.

electrical energy is produced at much
less cost than is that required for the
present system of electric lighting; and
besides, as the current used is of very low
amperage. there is les, danger of fire,
which must always attend the use oil
powerful currents on hidden wires.
The new discoveries open up an i'm
mense field Of practical application that
has hitherto been closed. 1. will now be
possible TO erect a lighthouse at any pos
sible point OF danger on our coasts and
light its lamp by current sent from the
shore, regardless of fogs, storms or sea-
son. Ships may be comm unicated with
or themselves hold converse with the in
accessible shore, and the hostile warship
destroyed long before it can reach avail
able sheling distance.
Every city in our land is disigured by
the plexus of unsightly wires which are
necessary for the operation of the various
applications of electricity used by us. To
place all of these wires underground
would be desirable, but it is practically
impossible. AS the demand for tele-
phonic and light service Increases addi-
tionaI wires are required, and no business

quiring an outlay that was not reasonab bly,

A street once provided with good road
way may not be broken up every time

failing wire ceases to act as a conductor

@%OME very remarkable discoveries
@ have recently been made in the
~ field of electricity. 1t has been
found possible to transmit electrical
energy, or, in other words, to produce
DYNAMIC force at great distance from the
source of energy without the aid of wires
or other conductors.
For many years ingenious men have
striven to accomplish the work of tele-
graphing without wires, but without ar
irving at any practical solution of the
problem until now. The phenomenon of
"lnductIon"-that is, the appearance OF
an electric current upon wire strung
parallel to another wire charged with a
current-has been familiar to electricians
ever since the use of wires as conductors,
but no rational answer to the question,
Why? has heretofore been brought for
ward.
Three men. each distinguished in the
scientific world-Dr. Jagadis Chunder
Bose. Hindoo, professor of Physics in
the Presidency College. Calcutta; Gugli-
elmo Marconi, an Italian. and Nikola
Tesla, Montenegrin-have, each inde-
pendently Of the her, arrived at similar
results in their studies of electric lnduc-
ton, and each one announces, and proves
his claim by experimental demonstration,
that it is quite practical to produce elec-
trical phenomena at great distances from
, the exciting cause.
Professor Bose has been able to ring bells

and operate an ordinary telegra phic instru-
ment at distance of hundreds of feet
from his transmitting instrument, the
force-rays of electrical energy passing
through brick and stone walls without inn
pediment. His apparatus consists of
small platinum ball placed between two
platinum beds connected to battery of
two storage cells. having an electro motive
force of two volts. and rendering the elec-
trio emanatlons given off by the platinum
ball into a bundle of parallel rays
by means of condensing lens made
of sulphur, pitch and ebonite. Marconfs
apparatus is a modified form of the famil-
lar Hertz machine for producing static
electricity. Marconi in his experiments
used no condensing lens, and he appeared
TO have achieved better results than has

warfare, for they may be directed against
the powder magazine of hostile iron

happen that couple of pieces of metal
were in the magazine in position to set up
induction. No little alarm is already
felt among Interested naval men as TO the
probable effect of this most wonderful
discovery. Nikola Tesla has. as is we'll
known, made exhaustive Investigation
into the phenomena of high frequency
and high potential currents, and he has
produced before emblages of the FORE

marvellous demonstrations.

ure. Austin Creek with its tributaries is
one of the finest trout sections to be
found in the State. though not SO
accessible as others. Cazadero is the
terminus of the railroad. and the
center of the Austin Creek region. The
mountains begin to grow in altitude here
and every valley has its stream, which,
flowing from great heights, the W aters are
clear and cold-the ideal home of the
trout.
AT CaZadero the stages that penetrate
into the Gualala River country begin.
This is the finest trout section of all Cali
fornia. The Gualala flows for fifty miles
parallel with The ocean, and from the east
receives a number of streams just filled
with trout. The middle fork of the Qua
lela gathers from a hundred mountain
rivulets and offers splendid sport for those
OF adequate ply sical endurancewhile Buck
eye and Rockpile Creeks are about as
good. These streams are rarely fished,
and the trout inhabiting them are large
and gamy. but no one ought to penetrate
into this region unless he is prepared to
endure and spend at least a week
without other occupation. There are
any number of little hamlets where
creature comforts can be had, and at all
the farmhouses q hearty welcome is as
sured 10 those disposed to reciprocate. To
the visitor the advice is given not to go
into this sparsely settled portion of So
noma without being fully equipped.
A portion of the State that has ever
been a tavorite resort of anglers is where
the Russian River has its source. in Mem
docino County. 1t is calculated that in
the river and its tributaries there are over
200 miles of stream that simply abound in
trout.
Private enterprise, with a view OF en-
couraging fisherman traffic, has stocked
these waters with millions of young trout
during the past two years, and reports
are unanimous that more trout are now to
be seen in these streams than ever before.
Hundreds of anglers are preparing for
a iaunt to some of these points, and to-day
will witness crowded trains and merry
passengers. The copious rains of the
past winter have filled many of the trout
streams 10 the banks, and il is expected
that the early fishing will not be as fruit
full in big catches as little later on.
The cream OF the sport will be in May,
when the waters are neither too high nor
TOO low-just about the right stage.

Il Marriage
Of Eternity

"Ashes to ashes-ashes to i'm m ortal!ty."
These words were spoken, half aunibiy,
by an aged man who stoC d on bridge
looking at the grotesque figures made by
the moonlight on the rippied river few
feet beneath him. He looked very in
tently at the silvery water with the view
OF one expecting to see something He
was expecting to see something, and his
expectation was one of years. Several
times he had almost persuaded himself
that his hope was to be realized as many
times had he been disappointed.
A whirlwind OF thought rushed through
his brain. A suggestion came to him un-
hidden. It had come 10 him before and
had been Just as often repelled. This
night it refused to depart. 1t demanded
satisfaction and the man could not some
how summon the usual strength to aid
him in shaking off the slavery that he
realized he was enduring.
Should he take the plunge? That only
could satisfy. With an effort that shook
his whole frame he moved from the
bridge, thinking to himself, "Ashes to
ashes-to perfection-to imm mortality."
and the voice called back as an echo,
"When you are again united, yes"
In his youth that man had loved. He
had not bestowed his passion sentiment
tally, but his nature had found its lackin e
element and had entered into a perfect al
lance. From the moment they became
aware what each was to the other they
were a unit-one heart. one mind, one
being. part of one beautifully harmoni-
Gus whole. 1t is not, however, given to
fallen mankind to enjoy on this side of
that accident of existence designated the
grave as much happiness as was theirs.

they were separated, but as he looked for
what others considered the last time on
that beautiful face. cold in d ca tn, he real
lied that, instead of o divorce. he was
more potentiy welded than ever during
their short united life in the flesh.
! The old method of sepuIture was re-
| pulsive to him-unnarural barbaric. The
everlasting doctrine of publication by fire
was infinitely more acceptable. He felt
! just as happy as on his wedding day,
when beautifully chaced, small marble
urn was placed on his mantel, containing
| ashes as sacred TO him as his life. AL
ways united in spirit. he viewed the urn
with unalloyed pleasure. Once more they
would come together, with not the re-
motest prospect of parting. From out OF
that urn would rise a figure perfect as an
angel. Immortality should clothe those
ashes and an eternal union should be
theirs.

DAWN.

My bare feet pass through the dropping grass,
which, pining sickens and longs for
Through the shadowy lines of the dim, dark
pines and the trailing branches of
somber yew
A whisper passes, as though they knew had
entered nights secret place.
Through the dusky shesves and the chestnut
leaves the murmur quickens and grows
apace:
And the first bird wakes in the ash-tree copse
And, note by note, its music drops
Down from the height OF their slender tops
Ere the veil has fallen from my face.
In sleeps dim bowers the dazzled hours fo.d
their pinions before their eyes
AS they see my light the edge of. night
slowly fit through the eastern skies:
The world grows wan and the low winds rise.
and the sa ilor sees my star,
While the Pleiads fail and the heavy Whale
shrinks and lessons and dies afar;
And the treacherous searocss looming stand
Like great gray ghosts on the rim of sand
BY the lonely islet, far from land,
Across the surfstrewn bar.
On the hi gh, steep world the dreaming fold stir
in their slumber ere am gone;
The faint bell shakes and the shepherd wakes
and stares at the shadows my wings have
thrown
The broad light spreads on the heathery down
and the flowers unclose as l pass;
In the dark, still woods the lime tree buds
scatter their sweets on the nesting grass;
And starry bl ssoms that all night steep
Their delicate petals in odorous sleep
Are walked with touch as my white robes
sweep
Through the purple petnnias.
On the twilight way 'twixt night and day my
spirit fingers. but may not wait;
The drifting cloud is my pearly shroud under
the porch of the western gate.
My course is swifter than Love or Fate, 1t is
brief as mans desire;
With wings unfurled drop from the world as
an eagle sinks to her mountain eyre:
But the breath OF my being on land and sea
Binds earth and heaven, and ere flee
/ kindle the torch of the day to be,
And the east breaks forth in fire.

sy1SS great many of the lovers OF this
genuine and exciting sport have left for

Closing Exercises.

Ike closing exercises by the child ren of the public school under the supervision of the teachers took place Tuesday evening. No lights or seats were provided for parents and others who take an interest in our schools. and as result the attendance was small, compared to previous years.
 It seems that the management could have provided seats and lights. The expense would have been nominal and our citizens would have gladly donated the necessary money had they been called on to do so.
 It is to be hoped that in future more attention will be given by the management of such affairs and there by make it a pleasure for parents to witness the advancement their little ones have made during the school term instead of hardship.

The Grandure of the Press.

Referring to the press when con- ducted by men inbued with the sense Of duty and inspired by noble princi- ples the Picayune truly declares that even with the human faults and in tirmities which the press inherits from the hands and minds of the men who have made it what it is, it is still a grand institution, the bulwark of liberty, the friend of freedom, the great advocate and tribune of the peo pie against all tyranny and oppression, and 8 universal educator. The press can not be greater than it's creators, but it is as grand as anything human can be. Its mission is truly noble, ard it will have work to do so long as humanity in 8 civilized state shall remain upon the earth. Men, with their pride of opinion, their selfish schemes, their vaulting ambitions, may come and go, but the press goes on forever, to assist in the grand work of numanizing. civilizing, educating. elevsting and confirming mankini in honesty, truth and virtue. and in helping the race onward to its hignest destiny.

A Reputed Cure for Typhus Fever.

Accounts come from Mexico of 6
 wonderful remedy which has done more during the last five months to- ward suppressing the typhus-fever epidemic in that country than all the physicians of the country. If these accounts are confirmed a panacea of
 marvellous virtue has been discovered, and it's investigation should at once engage the further attention of scien ists. A General of the Mexican army was applied to by & woman of the town near which he was encamped for permission to treat the fever patients in the hospital Permission was given, and all the men recovered. The Gene. al asked the woman if the medicine was secret. She answered that it was merely g preparation of jicams, farinaceous root, classified by botanists ss Bumella. The Gen. ersl himself then began to administer the root, which he has done SO suc- as to have been the means of curing thousands of cases of typhus and typhoid. A dispenssry has been opened in the City of Mexico, where doses of jicama are given free to poor people who ask for it.. It is said that 4OO0 cases have besn treated during the past year, not one of which has terminated fatally. The remedy IS reputed to be equally eficacious in
