GREAT SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
Austrian Finds a Subtle Matter Which
He Cal1s nEIectroid.U

Austrian Finds a Subtle Matter Which
He Calls "EIectroid."
Francis Rychnowski, a mechanical
engineer of Lemberg, Austria, has dis
covered strange and very subtle mat
ter which he called "electroid" be-
cause of a certain affinity with cleo
trcity. Electrold, produced by a spe-
cial apparatus built by the inventor,
is obtained by the dissolution of GER
tain matters under the influence of the
electric current. 1t makes noise, and
at the same time a refreshing scent
and cool breeze are experienced.
This discovery induced Mr.. Rych-
nowski to make a machine capable of
refreshing the air to such a degree
that those present during the expert
ment had the feel that the window
was open, although this was not the
case. Electroid is a very subtle mat
ter, but it seems to be a fluid, and 1t
can be gathered and preserved. While
falling on plate it reflects in a shape
of shining sheaves.
The commission appointed by the
-AN9NAAAA SONGL nlutul ~ investigate
this discovery reported that under the
influence of electroid plants grow rap
idly and the buds of flowers unclose
while one is looking at them. Elec-
troid annihilates microbes and thus
preserves organic matter. These are
physiological influences of electroid.
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

defend himself. The wheels and body

places with bronze or iron. The whee.s
had from four to eight spokes, and the
tires were of bronze or iron Qn the pres

which secured the felloes were of fossil
bone. This description applied to the
chariots of almost any Of the nations
Of antiquity, the difference consisting
chiefly in the mounting Thus the
charlots Of the Egyptians and Assyri-
ans, with whom the bow was the prin-
cipal arm of attack. were richly mount
ed with quivers full of arrows, while
those of the Greeks, who used the
spear, were plain except as regards
mere decorations. The Persians and
the ancient Britons used class of char
lots having the wheels mounted with
sharp, sickle-shaped blades which cut
to pieces whatever came in Their way.
This was probably the invention of the
Persians.
The use of the battle chariot really
belongs to the heroic period. The war
rior standing by the side of his chario-
teer was driven in front Of the line to
invite hostile warriors to single combat.
After the strategic skill of COM
mander superseded the demands on his
personal valOr, the chariot was trans
ferred from the battlefield to the hippo
drome, where alone its orign nal form
was preserved. The description of the
HOmeric battle chariot therefore to a
great extent also applies to the historic
chariot of the race course. The small
diameter of the chariot wheel may be
explained from the desire of preventing
the chariot from being opposed by the
impediments in the battlefield, such as
debris or dead bodies. The rims were
usually formed of four felloes, in which
the four spokes We're let The upper

When II comes to averaging the num-
Der OF crimes committed by men and
women, the statistlclan demonstrates
pretty clearly that the men are much
worse than the women Some modern
soclologsts have ventured to assert
that the women were quite the equal
of men In the field of criminality, but
this appears 10 be a mistaken idea.
Prof. MentegazZa has made a study OF
this matter and gives his conclusions

rate and equally as convincing, show
ing plainly that women occupy a high

the men. AS these statistics are of UNI

them are given here, as follows;

ing was convicted 100 times to a woman s

Ia France women are summoned be-
fore the tribunals four times less than
men.
In France In 1880 women delinQuents
were fourteen to 100 men.
In Italy In the same year they were

I'm England and Wales between 1884
and 1912 there were twenty-four women

women who were condemned were in
