CHARACTERISTICS OF X RAYS.
Prof. John Trowbridge of Harvard Gets
Some New Results.

Prof. John Trowbridge of Harvard Gets
Some New Results.
Prof. John Trowbridge, of Harvard,
in his special laboratory in the JEFF
ferson physical laboratory building,
has found that with the power of 1000
volts the x rays are just visible and
die out almost as soon as the current is
diminished. This is absolutely the first
definite characteristic of the rays that
has been accurately ascertained.
After careful investigation of the
spark and its characteristic accom-
paniments Prof. Trowbridge has come
to the knowledge that the old theory re-
garding the passage of light OF the arc
lights is entirely misunderstood.
This theory is that the carbons of the
arc light must necessarily come into
contact with one another in order to
start the flow of light, but this, Prof.
Trowbridge has discovered, is not
true.

Apparently Short.

The following startling report
came out today through the grand
jury's presentment to Judge
Hooker, that Examiner Knott
has gone through and found
Collector Pooser's accounts some
S13, 200 short, over and above the
loses in the defunct banks. etc.
But it is claimed by Mr.. Pooser's
friends that the matter is only an
apparent shortage, and will be
cleared Up. Mr. Davidson says
he has a large part Of It in the
safe in cash from this months
collections. The Star trusts that
Mr.. Poser will show that the de-
licit is only apparent and not real.

4 Pretty Window.

The window that attracted the
most attention during the recent
celebration, and which may be
seen yet, is the window in the
shoe department Of II. 3. Mas
ters, and is the handiwork of
manager w. T. Frierson. The
window is suggestive OF fall;
autumn leaves, bare twlg5 and
stacks Of cord wood cut and piled
by the wood cutters for tie ap-
preaching winter. The entire
floor ard back grounds IS covered
With bright hued autumn leaves
and the tags on which the prices
Of thc goods are printed are cut
into shapes Of yellow and red
leaves. The window is really
most tastely arranged, and most
have cost Mr.. FriGrson some
tedious hours.

Its comforts many; its cuisine un-

Greece Will Win.
(Atlanta Constitution.)

ATLANTA Constitution
Dan Lamont was in Atlanta yestcr-
day.
Since he dropped Cleveland's war
portfolio the eX-Secretary has been out
West He returned to New Orleans,
and is now on his way to New York
He arrived in Atlanta at l1:4O yester-
day and left on the noon vestibulel.
MIR. Lamont is much interested in the
condition IN Greece. He was eager dur
ing the day for the latest news from
the scene Of war and was busy studying
The situation.
Il believe" he said to one OF the pas
sengers seated opposite. that Edhcm
Pasha Will be trapped Ivy the strategy
Of the Greeks if he does not beware.
They are making an effort to close
around him. but ] believe that he Will
be ah!e 10 get out through Mnouna
l'ass. Il appears now. however, that
there will be a decisive tigh, at I.arissa
before the other forces Of the Greeks
can close around the Turkish army
Just now there Is a neat play going on,
ana the Greeks are proving themselves
very clever.
AS to the final result OF the war
well, that is a matter of doubt. All of
the powers wish the success of Greece
all or the people are in sympathy with
Greece. Whether the war will be al
lowed to continue is another interesting
question. 1t has gone rather far now
Tor action by the powers until some de,
cisive result Is obtained"
Mr.. Lamont talked Interestingly IF
the Turks as fighters. He believes tina;
Greek cicverness and bravery Will hold
out against them for some time.
