Advancement in Electricity.

<Au 40 AsNStiiNAhy-
Most of the radical advances of the
electrical age have already been made, g
said Prof F. 3. Crocker. of the Depart
ment of Electric Engineering of the Co
Arlington last night.
For example. the steam locomotive
replaced the stage coach and gave an
enormously increased speed whereas
the substitution of an electric locomo-
tive for a steam locomotive would be
merely matter of degree-that is, a
higher speed-but the great change was
made when mechanical power was sub
stituted for animal power.
The particular kind of mechanical
power employed is merely a matter Of
convenience and economy.
I'm a similar way the steam vessel
took the place OF the sailing vessel, and
a much higher speed and a definite time
schedule was the result
THE substitution of electricity or any
effect any radical change, as the great
step along this line has already been
made.
The telegraph enables us to transmit
messages to any distance and with al
most infinite speed.
Wireless telegraphy, important and
revolutionary as it appears. merely ac-
cOmplishes the same thing in a different
way. To be sure, the latter enables GER

sible with ordinary telcgraphy; for ex-
ample. communication between moving
ships; but interesting and useful as this
may be. it will always constitute an ex-
Ceedingly small fraction Of the telegraph
business, the great bulk OF which will
naturally be between fixed points by
the wire system. the only difference be-
ing largely the matter o! cost.
The telephone, invented twcnty-six
years ago, enables human speech to be
transmitted for local and long-distance
purposes That step having been taken,
it is merely the question OF laying wires
and increasing their length in order to
extend the service almost indefinitely.
The only Improvement that would
seem possible Is to reach points here
tofore considered too remote as for ex-
ample, talking from New York or Wash

Atlantic.
The accomplishment Of both of these
results has already been made possible
by the invention Of Prof Pupin.
1T is hard to say what more can be
done in this line, except, perhaps, the
development of a loud speaking tele-
phcnc. which would not be particularly
We might also expect the develop
ment of wireless telephony, which is
already being attempted, but this would
bear the same relation to the present
methods as those already mentioned.
'Onc of the most promising fields of
development is clcctro-chemistry. and
many substances, new as
well as old. will be manufactured in
this way; in fact, n number of import
ant industries of this kind are already
at Niagara Falls and else
y here. in this case the future develop
ment is likely to consist in u mere cx-
tension of the present methods.
THE conclusion is that most of the |
radical steps in electrical development |
have already been taken. and that the |
future viii simply see an expansion of |
the various applications now employed"

Happy Epoch in Current History.

1T is a most happy epoch in cur
rent history that the Boer war is at an
end" said Mr.. George Sarter, consul of
the United States at Antigua, West In
dies, at the Riggs House last evening.
There was great deal of suffering
on both sides. the English suffering
equally with the Beers.
AT Antigua, West Indies. at which
point we have 200 Boer prisoners, 1t
Will probably be something like six
months before they will be released.
The English government spent some
thing like 81 900. 900 in erecting a penal
camp on the island. The prisoners have
been well treated. AS the Representa-
tive of the United States have never
heard any complaint as to the treat
ment, despite the controversies along
these lines.
The termination of the Boer war
wipes out the last vestige of civilized
warfare. and to this end II Is a most
important event in current history. and
should be welcomed by the civilized
world at large"

Teaching Foreign Languages.

One Of the people who occupy
what they call their minds by the
devising of educational fads is ar
! Suing that the quickest way to
teach the dead languages is to con-
form the pronunciation as nearly
as possible to that of English. An
other is urging that the japanese
be requested to discard their pres
ent mode of writing and learn to
write their own language in Ro-
man characters. so that it will be
easier for foreigners to learn.
Further advance in this direction
will obviously mean that modern
as well as ancient languages shall
be pronounced English fashion,
and the result is likely TO be
quaint.
The English method" of pro-
nunciation was formerly in vogue
at many American schools and col
leees, for the simple reason that it
was the easiest to teach at the be-
ginning. To be sure, the vagaries
of English pronunciation of Eng
lish are such that it was somewhat
difficult to devise a modification of
this system which could logically
be applied to Latin without max
ing the exceptions 10 the rules un-
comfortably numerous. The So
called "Roman pronunciation of
Latin conforms in the main to the
system of pronunciation used III
most Continental languages, which
is logical and consistent. Hence
the Latin scholar trained by this
method has comparatively little
trouble in learning to pronounce
German or French.
Mr.. Frank K. Stockton. in one
of his humorous tales. introduced
young lady who had learned
French after an "Eu@lish system"
devised by herself and pronounced !
it like this:
"Noyezz-vows Get hommy EFT scz
ducks fcmmys seclah? p
The student Of French will, |
after Il little thought, recognize !
the query:
"Noyez-vous cet homme ct ces
dcnx femmes celia ?"
Latin and Greek taught after
the English system" will prob |
ably impress Continental sc.:olars
much as the young lady's alleged |
French impressed the listeners. |
The device may be truly Amer
lean, but there are some things |
in America which are ridiculous. !
and there is no need Of giving !
them undue publicity.

When Mr.. Richardson, Gen. Joe

speech on the Pacific cable bill for
editing before insertion in the Record.
he interllned some remarks about the
expulsion of Jews by the Car Of Rus

Possibly it was owing to the uncertain
quality of his chirography, bit for what
ever reason it was, the Record appeared
next morning crediting Mr. Richardson

TRIED TO FORCE JURY.

There was a decidedly unusual denoue-
ment in an etectment case tried in West
Virginia a few days ago.
The plaintiff was the Winfred Coal Com
pany, which sought to evict striking
miner from one OF the concerns houses.
After hearing the evidence, which was
in favor of the plaintiff, the court in
structed the jury to bring in a verdict
for the company, but this the jury re-
fused to do.
Then followed a long wrangle by the
lawyers as to the power of the court to
force the jurymen to follow its instruc-
tons, and at one time things grew so
stormy that it looked as if the twelve
good and true but stubborn men would
be sent to Jail for contempt. For many
long hours the legal points were discus
sed. The matter was finally settled by
the discharge of the jury, and the render
ing Of a verdict in favor of the plaintiff
by the court.
Whether the verdict will stand or not
remains to be seen. The refusal of the
Jury to follow the course suggested by
the judge opened up an interesting ques-
ton.

Mrs. Caulkins has also made charges
against her husband for non-support and

alleged to be of startling nature. The
letters were written by Miss Secor.
Here is one of them:
my Darlingest Darling,-When will I
