THREE GREAT SPEAKERS.
clay. BIsis~ and H-~d-rb- Famous
stnt~-m~n Contracted

Third in the succession 81 the great
speakers Of the national house is Thom-
as Bracket Reed. who is again at the
head Of the representative. Henry
Clay. James g. Blaine and Mr.. Reed
these three stand out like mountain
peaks IN the long line 81 the speakers
Of the house. Clay and Blaine were
each msu Of famous personal magnet
ism. Tales ~ the peculiar power they
eNsrtsd ON men who came within their
aurora are 50 muititudinous that they
seem almost legendary. Certainly a
very large part Of their supremacy
among men was due TO this strange
force. Both Clay aud Blaine were
dreamers. A certain oriental imaeina-
ton was dominant note in each.
Reed. on the other hand. while To- many
a very attractive personality. does not
rule men by the subtlrty Of personal
magnetism. lie is notably careless Of
effect in manner. He is rugged a. a
cliff. While he is withal man 81 big
kindness of heart, h. often l. relentless
as a serpent in his singing sar-asm.
lie reigns by the sheer largen.ss 81 his
Incorporating and uHanswerable
manhood. All three of these speaker.
have become too pronounced to be PRES
ident. To Clay and Blaine the prysi-
deney was the most daring ambition.
But both ut critical moments lost IL:
Clay because of his high principle in
writing the unpopular Texas letter,
about which he said: Il had rather be
right than be PRESIDENT: and Blaine
because of a Sudden concert of trifiing
atoms against him which all together
made an obstacle he could not clear.
To Reed. however. the presidency Is no
such magnet. But, though the question
oi the presidency seems To interest him
but little, perhaps for that reason he Is
ia some roaring convention the more
likely To be singled out for it. Ameri-
cans are race who love a man. and AZ
times this admiration for sheer man
hood becomes an idolatry with them

ELECTRICAL FLASHES.

Among recent patents Is one for .
self-restoring annunciaior, which. aft
er displaying the signal for a short
time. automatically restores itself with
out the aid of an attachment.
There Is a bill in the United States
senate providing that all overhead cleo
trio wires 10 the District Of Columbia,
within fire limits. be removed within
one year from the passage Of the act.
II is said the Third Avenue Railroad
company Of New York intends to adopt
electric traction on all It's existing lines
aud on others to be built. The conduit
trolley system will be used The i'm
provements contemplated will cost sew
eral millions of dollars.
Among the latest electrical patents
granted j. one for a pOlarized signal
bfll. which permits the calling currents
Of other bells TO pass through without
ringing II. while IL IS responsive to its
own predetermined signals. which are
Of varying current strength.
According to the Electrical Review,
the Gil lamps used TO illuminate a part
Of the Fourth avenue tunnel in New
York city have been supplabted with
incandcseent electric lights. Groups Of
lights containing i've globes are placed
at intervals Of every 80 feet. while ut
the Thirty eighth and Fortieth street
siairways red lamps indicate the exits.
\ l0S-mile electric transmission plant
IS reported to be under consideration in
southern California The undertaking
involves the erection Of dam across
the Kern river in Kern county, Cal.
and the construction Of line TO convey
the high tension current TO Los Angeles.
The Kern river drains an area OF some
2-si5 square miles. and total OF about
$4,000 horsepower can be obtained. \
pressure OF 10000 volts is proposed for
transmission While this is exception
ally high. the dry atmosphere and infre-
qnent rainfalls warrant its adoption.
The dam will form n storage reservoir
with volume OF about 1871. 400, 900
gallons, or the equivalent of 5000
acre-feet. Should the project be car
ried out. it would be by far the longest
electric power transmission line in the
world.
