Phenomena which Electricity Hal

Nature.

A. d. Waller, of the Paris Academy
of Sciences. has devised an electrical
means of distinguishing between liv-
ing and dead matter. His statement
of the method is somewhat as fol-
lows: Living matter responds to an
electrical stimulus by yielding an
after current in the same direction.
The same matter after it has been
killed by heating or other method
does not respond to excitation unless
it does so by causing a reversed cur
rent, due to polarization. This phe.
nomenon is characteristic of all living
matter, animal or vegetable. The
similar induced current is the last
sign of life and its amount may even
be used to measure the amount OF
vitality remaining. In order to make
this test the body is first connected
to a delicate galvanometer' and il
there is any detection caused this il

to it. If there is now DETECTION o

sin Of Using Tobacco.

In early colonial days the use Of
tobacco was considered far more sim
full and degrading than indulgence
in Intoxicating liquors. 0ld-time leg
islation reveals some curious attempts
to check the spread Of the creature
called tobacco" Landlords were fined
il they permitted it to be brought
into their taverns. No one could
take tobacco publicly nor in his own
house or anywhere else before sran-
gers. Two men were forbidden to
smoke together and no one could
smoke within two miles of the meet
ing houses on the Sabbath day. In
Connecticut in early days great in
diligence was permitted to travellers
they were allowed to smoke once
during a journey of ten miles.

interest is what goes current for public
opinion, foreeful. hurtful fiction.
The legislature represents the relation
which this fiction bears to the real and
right public opinion; two thirds of it is
right and this two thirds is ready to
elect Mr.. Addicks and any other acceptable
Republican as his colleague to the United
States Senate. That agreement and POI
sition is in accord with the real popular
sentiment, and it is those who hold this
opinion who must inform themselves
of the truth and arouse themselves to its
enforcement Too many of these people
are afraid to talk; have suppressed their
thought 10 conserve some minor purpose
and have thus weakened the truth and
strengthened the error. 1t is time that
public opinion had forced the public's
servants to the clearly indicated lines of
possible decision and agreement in the
election of Senators. approved by the
real public opinion of the State. as repre-
scented by the more than two-thirds Of the
Republican members of the Legislature
who have agreed upon plan for the
election of two Republican United States
Senators-should force them first to de-
eide to do it, which is clearly their first
duty, and then agree to do it.
Public opinion aroused and rightly di-
rected, can do that. Make public opinion
forceful by every man speaking right
out in meeting. This is a matter oi
everybody's business, and when every
body gets interested in it, the right of the
matter will prevail.

London Hns Forbidden Gates,

There are two gates in London
which it is an honor equal to the star
of an order to be allowed to drive
through. One is the gate in the arch
of the Horse Guards, and the other is
that of the Marble Arch. The Home
Guards arch is guarded by stalwart
trooper, who stands in the way of
any carriage that attempts TO 90
through, and. should the occupants
not have the right TO pass, turns it
back. The bishop of London. it may
be remembered. was stopped once by
sentry. who did not know that his
lordship is one of the privileged per-
sons. When there is any disputed
claim, if the occupant of the vehicle
who wishes to go through the arch
has patience enough TO wait. he can
remain until one of the high court
officials has given his decision, accord
ing to imnemorial custom.-London
