something of stir on the democratic
side by advancing the proposition to
open the doors of the national soldiers

furnish federal aid to state con-
federate homes. Mr.. Richardson of
Tennessee, democratic leader, inter
posed and declared that never would

lively and differences of opinion de-
veloped on the democratic side. Mr..
Richardson sided with Mr.. Dixey,

he proposed to continue to advocate

MaxMeIl,s Prescience-

From his theory of electricity Clerk
Maxwell inferred, first, that there
must exist relatively large electric
waves in space; and, second, that the
propagation of an electric wave must
produce a certain amount of pressure
Both these inductions have been
realized. Hertz found the electric
waves experimentally, and they are
the basis of wireless telegraphy. A
Russian physicist, Professor Lebedew,
of Moscow university, has now verified
the second idea. Maxwell thought
that ''the concentrated rays of an
electric lamp falling on thin
metallic disc, delicately suspended in
vacuum, might perhaps, produce an
observable mechanical effect" Pro
fessor Lebedew, initiating Sir William
Crookes' radiometer, employed veins
of extremely thin aluminium, suspend
ed by glass fiber, and the electric
waves falling upon these set them in
motion. The results agreed within
10 per cent. of Maxwell's theoretical
estimate.
