The replevin suit between Albert

developed into quite a suit. The
trial was held before Squire Booth,

Lincoln county citizens, and started
on last Saturday. After an ex-
tended trip tapping well over into
the present week, the case was
hnally submitted to the jury, and

agreement had vanished SQUIRE

The scene was impressive
Tie small switch ON one OF the up

thus produced evoked a gasp OF admira-
ZION frcm the favored spectators. The
intensity If the white light upon the
masses Of tumbing, roaring waters was
more than magical. They seemed to be
endowed with new life, wea wing and inter
weaving in white, fleecy foam and pale
emerald overtum, curving over and under
as they da shed down toward the whirlpool.
1t was q new view Of the rapids and CON
veved, perhaps, a better idea Of the
force and violence of the current than can
be gained under the light of day.
Mr.. stieringer had provided a series
Of Uo!ored screens 10 see what effect
c,lored beams would give to the water.
The red screen was lowered in front OF
the reflectors, and the effect producet
showed that the climax had not yet been
reached with tie pure white light The

top .r the gorge hank the effec: was
almost diaholcal. In the words OF one
of the spectators, Had Dante witnessed
this he would have constructed another

The lamps were left lighted during the
return Journey, and there was no part OF
the Whirlpool Rapids but was momentarily
illuminated by the concentrated beam Of
white light.
Some idea of the wonderful power OF TINS
light, which was simply the concentrated
RAYS OF six searchlights, may be obtained
from the estimated candle power, as
stated above. 1t would, OF course, be I'M
possible to tell the exact strength, but
100000 candle power is consider
conservative.
While the experiment. is only demonstra-
tive one, some important results are ex-
pecued to follow. The electric current which
operated the lamps was the trolley current
taken right off the wire as the car moved
along. The current is 500 volts In strength
and exceeded the voltage required Tor the
lamps, but "a resistance to offset this was
provided, as well as an automatic switch,
which would prevent the destruction OF
the lamps by one going out and throwing
the surplus power on the other five.

One OF the magnificent sights vouch-
safed 10 the members attending the con
vention of the Edison electric nlumin ating
companies at Buffalo was the illumination
of the whirlpool Rapids at Niagara Falls
by powerful searchlights-
The idea originated with Mr.. Luther Stier-
niger, whose experience with searchlight
effects on moving waters gained from the
electric fountains at the Worlds Fair at
Chicago which he designed enabled him 10
gauge the probable success of the expert
ment.
The inumin alton was merely in the nature
of a trial demonstration OF the feasibility
of realizing Mr.. Stieringer's idea, which
comprehends the illumination OF the Whiri-
pool rapids nightly during the season nn a
very much larger and more substantial
scale. The methods adopted In this in
stance were somewhat crude, owing to the
shortness of time in which arrangements
had to be made.
Six searchlight lamps were employed
They Were set in six plain wooden boxes
paintcd dead biack inside. In front OF each
arc, attached TO the back of the car were
polished silvered reflectors. The boxes
were placed on one of the flat cars of the
Gorge Railway, and the lights We're oon-

Guard, was yesterday sued by the United

Of military accoutrements delivered to the
plain tiff, but for which it is alleged he
las failed to make satisfactory account.
The declaration states that Capt. Marshall
accepted office August 16, 1887, and con-
tinued to hold his commission until April
13, 1892. While holding the office, it
is alleged, he received the equipments, sucii
as caps, uniforms and the like, to the value
set forth, and when demand for the prop
erty was made by the plaintiffs he failed
to return or account for it. The suit was
therefore brought by order of Brighten.
Ordway.
1t is understood that no charge Of dis
honesty or anything rejecting upon the
honesty of the defendant is made, but that,
as the declaration sets forth, tue suit
is instituted because the property was
lost or destroyed through the neglect or
