No Current Wasted.

The Big Consolidated railway COM
pany of Cleveland has recently in
stalled a storage battery in its Cedar
avenue powerhouse, which is at work
absorbing any surplus current which
may be generated and not be needed
for immediate consumption. With the
storage battery in operation waste of
current is impossible, for by its use
every surplus bit of current is cap
tured and stored away until a break
down of an engine or sudden in
crease in traffic demands it's release.
Enough power can be stored in the
new battery to run the entire Big Con
sol1dated system for several hours,
and as it would take quite a serious &C
cident to derange the system for that
length of time, a tie-up of the lines is
practically impossible.

THE OPERAS ORIGIN
Gre" From Masque and Court Ballots
of the Middle ACES.

Of the Middle Ages.
Opera is an outgrowth of the
masque and court ballots of the
middle ages, and the first musical
drama presented to the public as
such was ''Eurydice," by Fere. ami
was given in Florence in 1000. It is
| interesting to know that the orchestra
on this occasion composed a harp
slcord, large guitar, a great lyre. 3
large lutte and three flutes. Such was
the germ of the grand opera.
In the course of time the framework
OF the opera consisted OF a series of
| aflas or airs, connected by recitatiye,
| The story and action were carried On
| by means OF the latter, while the arias
! exhibit the vocal beauties and
| achievements.
The opera was constructed accord
ing to an accepted method. At first
SIX characters and then acts were the
rule. Each scene must END with an
air and the recitation had a fixed
position. AS time passed the model
became varied with the addition OF
new forms-concerted pieces and
finals and choruses. The orchestral
accompaniment became enriched until
now grand opera presents brilliant
spectacle of drama, ballet, arias, con-
certed finales, choral and orchestral
masses, professions, scenery and ,
wealth of effects.
In Italy, the home of the opera, the
music and the voice are the primo
considerations. The words and
dramatic situations are but oppor-
tunlties for the singer To the
romantic, music-loving Italians, there
is nothing absurd in scene when a
chorus stands calmly around and
listens to a frantic tenor announce his
intention of stabbing himself to the
heart in strains Of exquisite melody
which he proceeds to do without the
slightest interference of the aforesaid
bystanders, who then assume con-
ventiOnal attitudes of horror and with
out moving from their places chant in
divine harmonies beautiful dirge
That's what they are for. The
practical, material, everyday Ameri-
can mind of today is rather amused
than thrilled when q picturesque
young fellow rushes madly down 20
the footlights and explains TO the
audience that he is on his way TO
absolute breath control. The Nash
then cOOlly stops and delivers the
most enchanting aria, with statuesque
poses and much meaningless but
graceful gesture. His great high G
brings him the expected and deserved
encore meanwhile the mother con
tinues to burn, but that does not
matter; the song, the singer, the
music is the raison deetre of the
italian opera. Wagner and MS host
Of followers have endeav0rCd to
reconcile those incongruities and mold
the drama, words, music and situation
into complete and logical whole, but
as long as melody shall delight the
human ear so long shall We list"r

consumptive soprano for singing witt
her last dying breath q beautiful aria
which demands perfect lungs anf

LEGAL FINE POINTS.
Matters CT Close Question Decided by
the Courts.

In a recent murder trial in Mis-
sissippi before Judge Powell. of the
Circuit Court of Yazoo county, the
jury, after retiring to consider. it's
verdict, discovered a statute in the
code governing it's proceeding which
it followed, although it had not been
given in the instructions by e court.
The defendant was convicted and his
counsel entered motion for a new
trial on the ground that the jury had
no right to go outside instructions of
the court and follow the statute in the
code. The statute referred to pro-
yided that in case the jurymen agree
as to the guilt of a prisoner, but are
unable to fix the punishment, they
may return a verdict to that effect,
Stating that they find the prisoner
guilty as charged, and allow the pre-
siding Judge to fix the punishment.
Judge Powell overruled the motion for
a new trial on the ground that the
public has no right to know the pro-
ceedings within the jury room, and
also that an examination Of the code
was not violation of the instruc-
tons.

Beats the Old Canal Mule.

Towing by electricity along the river
banks in England is quite a novel ap-
plication Of electric power. The ex-
pertinent is to be tried, however, in the
northern suburbs of London. The
river Lea, which runs through Wal
thamstow, Tottenham, Enfield and nu-
merous other places in that district is
quite a busy little river, with consider
able barge traffic, and it is now pro-
posed to develop this traffic and slim
ulate manufacturing industries along
the river banks by introducing sys-
tenn Of electric towing. It is stated
that no electric apparatus whatever
will be connected to the barge itself.

For Buyers.

Advising buyers of electrical appara-
tus, writer in the Engineer magazine
says: The apparatus which the manu-
facturer considers standard and which
therefore, is built in large quantities
and carried in stock, is usually shown
in his catalogues and price lists. The
apparatus costs less than unlisted or
special apparatus; it can be furnished
in shorter time, and it is more likely
to prove satisfactory in operation. A
greater amount of thought has been
bestowed upon it's design than it Is
practicable to give-assuming the ful-
filment of reasonable dates of delivery
to any new designs that may be
specified. The buyer, therefore, while
Incidentally best serving the interests
OF the manufacturer, can at the same
time best serve his own interests by
consulting the catalogues of the best
manufacturers and making his selec-
tons therefrom whenever his require
ments are such as to render this
course permissible. He will some
times find it to his advantage even to
go out of his way in an endeavor to
make standardized apparatus answer
his requirements when it does not
seem to be exactly suitable.
