WONDERS OF ELEcTROlD.
New Substance That Makes Plants
Grow ViSibly Discovered.

Francis Rychnowski. a mechanical
engineer of Lemburg. Austria, has dis
covered a strange and very subtle mat
ter, which he has called .electroid,' be-
cause OF certain affinity with elec-
trlclty. ElectrOid, produced by a
special apparatus built by the inven-
tor, is obtained by the dissolution Of
certain matters under the influence of
the electric current. 1t makes noise
and at the same time refreshing
scent and cool breeze are experienced.
This discovery induced Mr.. Rych-
nowskf to make machine capable Of
refreshing the air to such a degree
that those present during the expert
ment had the feeling that the window
was open, although this was not the
case.
ElectrOid is very subtle matter, but
it seems to be a fluid. and it can be
gathered and preserved. while falling
on plate it reflects in q shape of
shining sheaves
The commission appointed by the
Austrian Government to investigate
this discovery reported that, under the
influence of electroid, plants grow
rapidly and the buds of flowers un-
close while one is looking at them.
Electroid annihilates microbes and
thus preserves organic matter These
are physiological influences Of elec-
troid.
Among mechanical phenomena the
commission reported that the influence
OF electroid is not stopped even by a
brick wall and glass; that it attracts
solid bodies and makes them shine like
moonlight-it makes them move and
attract other bodies: finally, that it
acts on Photographic plates and pro-
duces sharp and distinct lines. such
as were formerly possible only with a
very powerful lens

Slate is produced in France to a
very large extent and is taken from
both open and closed quarries. The
hest of these quarries are located in
the neighborhood of Anger, Depart
nent of Maine ct Loire. The slate ex-

tiles: from certain quarries, for large
slabs. billiard tables and public toilet
rooms

DEs MONIES. June 23.-The first an

state of Iowa was held here during the
day. Attorney General Remedy gave
an address which contained some start

He said:
Socialism follows in the wake of
the trusts. The French revolution was
the logical sequence of concentration
into the hands Of the princes and no.
blemen Of the greater part of the

say that such a condition is near at hand
IN u country, but l firmly believe the
pendulum is swinging in that direction
In conclusion he said:

service than by either demonstrating the
n~on-existence Of unlawful pools or
trusts in the state or by bringing the
guilty parties to justice"

There is probably no single feature OF
a circus program that claims SO much
breathlees attention or that thrills an
audience to a greater degree than nn
intrepid performance upon the flying
ytrapeze. This is strikingly true OF the
Fishers, the wonderful aerial family,
who will be seen with Ringing Broth
ers' famous big circus when it exhibits
in this city Friday, July IA. The per-
Torrance given by this notable family
of aerialists is not only unique, but also
superior to anything Of the kind ever
seen in this country. They actually fly
through space, turning single aud dou-
bic somersaults in midair, aud never
failing to catch each other ut the critical
moment OF descent. Equally remarka-
bic are the thrilling aerial exploits Of tie
marvellous Dt.Comas. Swinging under
the immense dome, forty feet apart,
Louis and Rose toss their sister Fan
chon across the intervening space, catch
log her with outstretcbed hands, ard
re peating the thrilling maneuver until
the audience is fairy electrified by the
daring dexterity Of the performances. In
addition to the Fishers aud DaComas
Ringing Brothers offer many other high
GLASS aerial novelties. Mile. Turnour,
the aerial e%qu,librist, is an unrivaled ar
tist in her line. As masters Of the aerial
bars, .Alvo, Boise and Packard are with.
out peers in the arenio world. Among
aerial somersault divers the Great La
Fleur stands alone. These are but a few
