Tesla once made a remark which was
full of the spirit of future progress in
the matter of lighting. ''It is of not
little interest,"" he said, "to contem-
plate that we have possible way of
producing - by other than chemical
means-a veritable flame which would
give light and heat without any materi-
al being consumed, without any chem
ical process taking place, and to accom-
plish this we only need to perfect meth
DDS of producing enormous frequencies
and potentials.
These words of Mr. Tesla contain q
suggestion the full meaning of which
has lately been more thoroughly under
stood. To produce something from moth
ing has ever been great human problem
not always solvable. Here is scien-
fist pointing ont scientific way of ac-
complishing the feat The hidden mean
ing of the remark is not hard to discern.
His words would seem to intimate that
we have been employing exceedingly
crude methods of light production; that
in the laboratory of nature means and
lndGeF1al eAlS6 WHICH may De procured
and used for the mere asking; that our
proper course would be to first see how
light is produced in nature, and then
as far as possible to go and do likewise
The Harvesting of the ether means. the
solution Of many great secrets of the uui-
verse, the. utilization of natural light,
the subtle transmission of speech
through miles Of space, and the great
est triumph science has yet known. -

At one of our large north country
churches recently Il fashionably dressed

very stern old chap, Immediately bus

THE TELEPHONE DECISION.

The decision of the supreme court
extending the exclusive patent of the
Bell Telephone company, if it means
anything, means the shutting out of
all competition. Under its operation,
no other company can use any form
of carbon transmltters.
The decision will, of course, cause a
further fight. The many opposition
companies that have sprung into ex
istence in the last few years will not
close their exchanges and lower their
wires without struggle.
Brunswick is particularly interested
in this big legal contest, because the
long distance lines are now in process
of connection with this city for the
purpose of putting in both local and
long-distance systems. The people
naturally dislike monopoles and the
coming of the competing lines meant
the end of the Bell company's absolute
control Of local business. The decis-
ION may result in the abandonment of
operations by the Valdosta and Way
Gloss lines, which would be unfortu-
rate in many particulars.

The Shakers have made disc very
which is destined to accomplish much
good Railing that three-fourths of
all our sufferings arise from stomach
troubles, that the country is literally
filled with people who cannot eat and
digest food, without subsequently suf
fering pain and distress, and that
many are starving, wasting to mere
skeletons, because their food does
them no good, they have devoted much
study and thought to the subject, and
the result is tins discovery of their
Digestive Cordial.
A little book can be obtained from
your druggist that will point out the
way of relief at once. An investiga-
ton will cost nothing and will result

A Critic of Durer.

A woman visitor to the Durer collec.
ton on exhibition in New York had the
present day assurance to criticise this
old master as follows: Zone can but
notice how modelling, at least, has
grown into an exact science, and what
difference there is between such fig
ure drawing as Durer's and that of any
bright young art student nowadays.
Why, the flesh seems to hang in bunch
es upon his nudes. One would think
that they were all afflicted with tu-
mors. "

STORY OFF A WOMANS SIGNATURE
Which Illustrates Christina ROsset-
it's COnscientiOusness.

Edmund Crosse, in an essay on
Christina Rossetti, says that in middle
life, at least, she was almost morbid
ly conscientious. Her scruples WerG
not only delicate, but exceedingly far
reaching. In 1874 a scheme arose in
England which would lead to the dis
truction of a part of the New Forest,
and influential people started a petit
ton to defeat it.
Swineburne promised his signature,
on condition that Christina ROsetti's
could be procured; and he limited rath-
er mischieVOusly that the latter feat
would not be easy to accomplish. So
MI. Crosse sought the lady, and found.
indeed, that much persuasion was re-
CURED to convince her that the pro-
test was an innocent and legitimate
one.
At last she took up the pen AMI
began writing her name. Having
gone SO far as to inscribe Chr" she
stopped, laid down the pen and in
CURED earnestly:
Are you sure they do not propose
to build churches on the land?"
After long effort he succeeded in
convincing her that no such scheme
was in anybody's mind, and she went
so far as to write 'istina" G. Ros,'
Then she halted again.
Nor schOOlhOuseS? she asked.
But at length the hating signature
was finished.

KANGAROO DUEL.
Strange Contest Witnessed by u
Traveller In Australia.

Traveller In Australia
was riding along one evening near sundoWn
when the black boy who accompanied me, who
happened to be few yards ahead of me at the
time suddenly pulled up his horse just as he
topped the crest of the ridge where we were
beckoned mo to join him, says the New York
Sun. AS we were on a cattle mastering ex-
pedition at the time, / thought he had caught
sight Of a rowdy mob, but when l had crept
quietly up alongside him and could look down
into the gully below I started in amazement
in a circle of about a hundred yards or SO
across stood some fifty or sixty forest kanga-
roos, everyone Of them erect and looking on
with evident interest at the spectacle of two
immense "old men, who, in the middle of the
ring, were engaged in deadly combat.
Clasped in fierce embrace with their short
muscular arms they swayed to and fro in
their efforts to force each other to the ground,
every now and again dealing ferocious kicks
at each others stomach with the long, knife
like toe of their hind feet, kicks which they
avoided with wonderful agility by sort of
backward jump, without, however, releasing
their grip on each others bodies for a mo-
ment. The whole scene. the two combat
ants with their upright figures gripping and
swaying in the center exactly as two wreSt-
lers might have done, with the ring Of erect
gray-bodied onlookers, was singularly inter-
esting, and for some ten minutes or more we
stood and watched them until a snort from
one Of the horses gave them the alarm, and
they were off in all directions in minute.
On riding up to examine the spot we found
tufts Of grass in several places, and the state
of the ground for some yards round about
showed very plainly that the struggle had
been a fierce one. Neither of the combatants
however, had been disabled, for they bounded
away among the others, and we saw them
no more.

ALASKAN TREASURES.
One of Those Rare Animals, n Musk
Ok. Recently Killed There.

Alaska is land of marvellous things as
mans paradise for large game, says Ameri-
can Field. Last week we had the pleasure Of
inspecting at the Office of c. F. Periolat the
we'll known dealer in furs many years in
Chicago, who is now located at Suite 500,
Masonic Temple, two grand natural history
specimens from that far-off terra incognita'
of the Northwest One of these is a pair Of
moose antlers that for length spread and
width of PLANTATION greatly exceed any we
had previously seen. They have 8 feet 1O1a
inches spread are 4S inches in length, and
the palmate width of one side-from the long
est point to the inner edge-is 80 inches
while the other side measures In the same
manner 2512 inches. These wonderful antlers
were carried by moose which was killed by
a white hunter some 100 miles north OF
Cooks inlet Alaska and his Indian guides
were thirty days in bringing out the massive
skull bearing the antlers, and the dried scalp
of the animal. The other specimen was the
prime pelt of a musk OK, monster, that
was killed some 1,600 miles above Cooks in
let 1t is a magnificent specimen, being in
prime fur and carefully skinned so that any
expert taXidermist could mount perfect
counterpart of this animal, so rske speci-
men in this section of the country. The skin
is 9 feet inches in length and feet In
ches in width, and with its massive shaggy
frontal and great name challenges the adj
miration Of every behoder, and also exctteS
a slight degree of envy of the lucky pur-
chasers the Jesuit Church of Chicago, which
paid $500 for the skin, and probably will
place it in the great museum belonging to
that institution.
