Ordinance.

The Jefferson Hotel electrical contrac-
tors, Messrs. Fingsbury & SamueIs, OF
Baltimore must answer before the Police
Justice of this city for alleged defective
wiring in tho reconstructed building
This was decided upon at a meeting of
the Committee on Electricity held in the
City Hall committee room last night,
and ty-Electrician w. H. Thompson
was instructed to take steps to this end.
AS stated by Mr.. Thompson last night,
the case against the Jefferson contrac-
tors is simple. and by bringing them be-
fore the bar of justice at once Will be q
warning to other contractors. Under
the city ordinance, says nlr. Thompson,
no one can do electrical work without
the permit of the City Electrician, and
in the case of the electrical work in the
Jefferson this permit was never gwen.
Hence the action against them.
Incidentally Iast nights meeting threw
a sideliSht on the I!abliston building

delay in the matter of a second aiarm

matter of dead wires all over the city
was discussed. The danger of these in
terfering of striking other wires anci be-
coming live, of falling, charged as they
are wit electricity, as ace happened
at Fourth and Main Streets, where q
horse was ki.cu. was all gone over.
1t was suggested that the Committee
ask the Council for a sufficient sum of
money to remove these dead wires. but
instead of mis- it was finally decided to
ask City-Attorney Pollard for an opin-
ion as to whether these Gead wires
would cone under the authority of the
Electric Committee or of the Street Com
mittee as distractions
In the matter of rules the Committee
adopted those of the National Board of
Underwr writer's as governing principles,
adding one which provides that no one
be allowed to do any kind OF electric
wiring or work without the necessary
permit from the City Electrician. Mr..
Thomson submitted his report. and III
this he showed that contractors gener-
ally were not giving him the proper atd
in the safeguarding Of the city through
necessary caution in electric wiring, as
in many cases they failed to notify MIN
that such wiring was to be done. and IN
many cases nothing was ever known OF
such work. 1t was largely on the
strength of this report that the action
against the Jefferson Hotel contractor
vast taken.

Admiral Dewey said after to-day's ses-

of searching examination to produce the

1t is a singular thing that in the
popular view of disease the interde-
pendence of the several organs of the
body is lost sight Of. The heart, for
example, is diseased and it is treated as
if it were entirely separated from, and
independent of; every other organ.

PROF. DeMOTTE.

The Harp of the Senses" the lecture
to be delivered by Prof. DeMotte at the
Opera House next Thursday evening,
will perhaps be the greatest psycholOgi-
cal treat ever enjoyed in this city. 1t
will be illustrated by huge magic
lantern, which is most successfully Oper-
ated. The illustrations are superb, and
they bring science into such familiar
relations that it robs it of all its techni-
cal drudgeIy and Hakes it simple and
charming to all who may be present.
Chattanooga, Tenn, Daily Times of
January 7th, says of the entertainment
which appeared there: 'The speaker
represented ones personality as sur
rounded by two oceans, one of either
and one of air, and he showed how they
affected ones personally. He pictured
the brain and its action as they govern
human conduct, and he told some in
teresting studies in character and con-
duct to emphasize his theme. A num-
ber of musical instruments were eX-
hibited to show the effect of sound in
all its variations. The human ear was
perfectly pictured, as was also the effect
produced thereon. The human brain
was also exhibited, and strong, moral
sermon adduced from it. All in all, the
lecture was a deep, serious and uplift-
ing entertainment. and students OF
psychology were enraptured with it."
