Electrical Possibilities.

SCHENECTADY N. Y, Feb. D. Charles P. Steinmetz, the expert cleo trician, addressing a public meeting here on' Future Possibilities of Elec- tricity," said that the success of wire less telegraphy would in the future prevent any one from being complete ly isolated and that by it's means arc tic explorers would be able to commu- nicate with civilization and thus pre- vent any more expeditions being lost and perishing. He said that it would also be generally used in war, so that an opposing force could not cut wires and thus cut off communication. He added that the telephone is yet in it's infancy and that within half genera ton it will be possible for Americans to talk with friends in Europe, as a transatlantic telephone is question of only few years.

Brings News From Fex.
 TANGIER, Morocco, Feb. 2-The sultan's troops have utterly routed the forces of the Moorish pretender and captured Blu Hamara himself.
 A special courier who arrived after making a record journey from Fez brought this news. He reportssthat at daylight last Thursday the army of the sultan, commanded by the war min ister, Fl Menebhi, attacked the pre- tenders position and inflicted a com plete defeat on his following, at the same time capturing Blu Hamara.
 Another runner who has reached here from Fez confirms the news of the defeat of the rebels, but says that the report of the capture of the pre- tender is incorrect. He adds that it is uncertain whether Blu Hamara's body was among the great number slain. The sultan's victory was abso- lute, almost the entire following of the pretender being either slain or cap- tured. His camp, provisions and ann munition were taken, and the artillery which was lost by the sultan's army in the battle of Dec g was recaptured. Even if Blu Hama raA escaped it is hope less for him to seek to retrieve his de- feat, as his claim to be saint is ex- ploded. The details regarding the bat tie are meager, but it is known that the pretender's camp was surprised and rushed at dawn.
 There are great rejoicings here at the sultan's victory.

 BALTIMORE, Feb. Preaching at the cathedral on Christ the Only En- during Name Tn History and the Only True ReforTner of Society,"" Cardinal Gibbons sounded aanote of warning in a discussion of the growing number of divorce mills. He said:
 There is a social scourge more blighting and moresdestructive of fami- ly life than Mormonism. It is the fear fully increasing number of divorce mills throughout' the United States. These mills, like sthe mills of God, are slowly but, surely" grinding the domes- tic altars of the nation. Husband and wife are separated on the most f1imsy pretexts. Andsas if the different states of the Union were not sufficiently ac- commodating in this respect South Da- kota has the enviable distinction of granting divorce for the mere asking of ftsoa the sole conditionsof.a hrief so- journfn her borders.''

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.

V [A 4
 With comedy predominant at the Jacques this week the show should be specially attractive to the patrons of vaudeville, for, say what one may,
 Matthews and Harris, who head the bill in Will M. Cressy's comedietta, ssAdam the Second,'' are old favorites here because of the success they had last season in making fun. The lo- eaIe of Adam the Second" is a lonely castle on the top of fhe Andes noun tains and the story concerns the sue cessfuI experience of a stranded aero naut in enlightening a lone young woman who has never before heard of a man. It is a very funny sketch, well written, of course, as all of Mir Cressy's sketches are, and it is played with a vim and dash such as might be looked for in old time vaudeville players of their experience. There is an interesting musical novelty by the great Rice Family in which three of the youngest musicians on the boards, two boys and girl, appear and show marvellous execution on the violin. Other acts are introduced by Will F. Denny, Hacker and Lester, Suriel and Kessner, the Misses Carrie Ezier and Josie Webb, Marston and Ryan, and Haight and Dean. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents; afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10.
