Tho Bubonlc Plague.

The plague of to-day Is the lineal
descendant of that which was cleared
away from London by the great fire. 1t
represents one Of many epidemics
which history teaches us devastated
Europe during past ages-pests, these,
abolished by the disappearance of dirt
which forms their soil and breeding
place. We know the germ of the
plague. 1t was discovered by Kitasto
in 1894. and independently in the same
year by Yersin, whose protective serum
h used as preventive.
The germ is somewhat shortened
and rounded bacillus, that flourishes at
a temperature approaching that of the
blood. Apparently the germ does not
multiply by giving off spores or
seedlike bodies. but by simple division
Of the parent germs into others. 1t is
easily killed. A temperature of PIP
degrees Fahrenheit destroys it Cuickly,
and acids also act efficiently in This di-
rection. Yersin found the plague germ
living in the soil in affected places In
the earth it appears to be non-virulent.
but placed in another environment. say
the animal body. it speedily develops
its disease-producing powers. Cows,
sheep, pigs, cats, and. Of course. rats,
are affected by it, but the dog is said
to enjoy an immunity from the atten-
tons OF this bacillus. Gaining access
70 the body, through the skin for the
most part. and probably through some
abrasion or wound. the bacilli make
for the glands, and as these swell and
enlarge, constituting what doctors call
''buboes,'' the disease has become
known as the "bubonic plague
The fleas which infect the rat are
also credited with share in the Diff
fusion of the ailment, for, charged with
the microbes, these parasites will in

rats which has been ordered and ad-

SYSTEM is STILL YOUNG.

Electric Lights We're First Seen at the
Centennisi Exposition.
The electric light is new and vet is
SO old that perhaps we do not appre-
ciate its marvellous achievement. II
we will but recall the conditions be-
fore it came we shall see what won
derful advance it has been in the field
of applied science It's use in theaters,
in stores, in show windows, in street
illuminations, in private as well as in
public. it's application for lighting in
all sorts of out-of-the-way corners. its
divisibility into various degrees Of
power. its absolute safety so long as
the wires are properly guarded. its per-
feet sanitary qualities, the practical
absence of heat and the entire absence
of odor are things that make one feel
that in the way of lighting we have
come perhaps to the last discovery. Yet
this light was shown in this country
for the first time at the centennial ex-
hibition-twenty-f1ve years ago. And
1t is needless to say that those who
saw it were skeptical of its practical
use. Arc lighting was produced on .
commercial basis in 1877, but the real
beginning Of electric lighting in its
modern aspects was with the opening
of the Pearl street station of New York
by Edison in September, 1882. where
the Edison incandescent lamp was
used. In the nineteen years since then,
according to careful tabulation made
by the Electrical Review, the invest
ment in electric lighting plants in this
rtrxy oil hn c1r nf
$500, 100000. This wonderful Industry
has been established in this short time
and we must now remember in the face
of the organized and long-established
competition of gas illumination, pow
erful and rich interest which until the
adoption of electric light occupied the
whole field for the best kind of light
