State would prevent any hostile or un-
pleasant demonstration.

BEN FRANKLIN'S PURCHASE
An Old Electrical Machine Dating
Back to the Revolution.

| An Old Electrical Machine Dating
Back to the Revolution.
Nearly every schoolboy Of genera.
ton ago was familiar with the friction
al electricity machine, never of very
much practical value, but of great in
terest to youthful minds on account of
the spark that could be made to pass
from condenser to youthful finger.
Nowadays the size Of the spark has in-
creased as the size of the machine has
diminished, but an example of the ear
lier type is still preserved at the Jeffer-
son physical laboratory at Harvard,
where an interesting collection of an
tiquated pieces of apparatus gives the
visitor to Cambridge an opportunity to
compare the earliest with the latest
methods of studying physics and as.
tronomy.
This special piece, moreover, is PAR
ticularly Interesting in that it was orig
inally purchased for the college by
Benjamin Franklin when acting as
American commissioner to France dur
Ing the Revolutionary war. 1t is cum
d
horse and a small wagon or whole
automobile to move, but the principle
on which it is based is the same as in
Its modern successors. Aside from size
the most noticeable difference is in the
use of glass globe about foot in dl-
ameter to produce the electricity by
friction instead of the big circular glass
plate seen IN later machines.
Despite its size and the big globe,
hoWever-whict is supported on posts !
resembling those of colonial four |
poster bed~the old machine never ex-
ceeded spark two inches long and
was even proud Of that modest per-
Torrance. How modest it really was
may be seen by comparison with a
modern machine in the next case, so
much smaller than Franklins that 1t
,an be held in one hand, that produces
spark Of electricity of nearly seven
inches.

Camera Club Organized.

In response % an invitation sent out to number of our people who are interested in amateur photog- raphy, about twenty kodak fiends'' met in the dental parlors of Dr. Metz gar last evening and formally organ ized themselves into what will here after be known as the Prescott Cam era club.
 A constitution and by laws similar to those of similar organizations in several of the larger cities, will be adopted and the organization con ducted along the same lines.
 Prof. Billinghurst was selected temporary chairman and Mrs. Geo. Wooster temporary secretary until the constitution and by laws are adopted.
 The meeting was a very en- thusiastic one and the club will no doubt prove a very interesting and profitable one, as Prescott contains a large number of amateur photog- raphers, some of whom have quite ex- tensive regulations along that line, and certainly no place In the country offers more opportunities for the practice of this art than Prescott and the surrounding country, where thou sands of beautiful scenes may be photographed.
 Occasional exhibits will bearranged by the club, when their friends will be invited to inspect the work done by it. Picnic parties will also be ar ranged and by an exchange of ideas and experiences the members will be ena bled to secure great benefit from the organization and many beautiful scenes of surrounding country will be brought to view that otherwise might not be known and appreciated. thus benefting the city and county. May the Camera club prosper.

 "The nobleman who took away an umbrella not his own on such a date is requested to return il"
 The committee took offense at this statement, and summoned the mem bers who made it before them.
 "Why, sir" they inquired, should you have supposed that a nobIeman had taken your umbrella?"
 "Well, replied the member, ''the first article i'll the club rules say that this club is to be composed of noble men and gentlemen and since the person who stole my umbrella could could not have been a gentleman, he must have been a nobleman."

An Intelligent Dog.

In a late number of McClure's magazine there is an account of a dog with as much individuality as the average man, and what we are wont to call almost human intelligence. In point of fact there seem to have been times when the dog had more sense than the men with whom he was asso- ciated.
 He belonged to cavalry troop in the United States army and it was one of his self-imposed duties when the troop was on active service, to wake the men when the order was given to go on after short rest Usually the men did not care to be walked, but the dog would tug and shake until he was assured, by vio- lent language or a good natured cuff, that his subject was really conscious, and then he would trot on to the next sleeper. On one occasion a trooper who was tipsy had failed en- tirely to respond to these measures, and the troop, not missing him, was in the saddle prepared to ride. The dog insisted, however, that somebody was left behind, and finally brought the troopers hat in his mouth as proof that what he said was true.
