Not as much is said about aluminium
as there was at one time, but it is
making its way. A writer in Nature
says that it is finding considerable
employment as substitute for copper
as an electrical conductor, and it is es-
pecially used in connection with the
transmission of power eover long dis
tances. One of the most important Of
these installations is the transmission
of twelve thousand horse-pow from
the Snoqual1nie Falls to Seattle and
Tacoma, distance of more than forty
miles. In this scheme an alloy Of alum
inium with 1-2 per cent. of copper
has been used, the lightness and
strength of this alloy enabling spans
of one hundred and fifty feet to be
made with safety. A great saving in
the number of poles is thus effected
which is one Of the principal advan-
tages gained. Numerous other impor-
tant transmission schemes might be
cited in which aluminium is used. or in
which it has been decided to use it,
AS has been just pointed out, the use
Of aluminium effects a great saving in
the number of poles required; it also
involves dealing with a much smaller
weight of conductor, and is, finally,
cheaper than copper. In round num-

bers for equal conductivity, the section
of an aluminium cable is one and
half times that Of a copper one, the
weight is half, and the tensile strength
1hree-quarters. 1t is the decreased
weight which, in spite of the smaller
tensile strength, allows longer spans
to be used, and this effect can be made
more marked by the use of a suitable
alloy possessing increased strength
without much diminished conductivity
or much higher specific gravity.

A petition for leave to establish a
public library in Constantinople was
recently refused by the minister of pub
lie instruction, special objection being
made to several books on the proposed
list, among them the fables Of La Fon-
taine. The frequent references to the
lion, the king Of animals, it was held,
would be regarded ny ignorant people
as degrading to the kingdom and insult
ing to the sultan.

This United States of America is GER
tainly a helpful country. 1t has helped
and is helping Cuba, Porto Rico and
the Philippines, and it is also helping
Venezuela, Germany and England.
And the indications now are that it is
going to be as successful in helping the
three latter as it has been in helping
the three former. Acco1 ding to the lat
est news, it appears that Great Britain
and Germany have informed their rep
resentatives at Washington that they
consider Minister Bowen's proposals re-
garding Venezuela's guarantees to form
a satisfactory basis for further negoti-
ations. And in addition to the offer Of
part of the customs of La Guayra and
Puerto Cabello as a guarantee Mr..
Bowen has Informed the powers that
several New York banks have express
ed their willingness to undertake the
payment of the first claims demanded
by the powers upon the basis Of such
guarantee. J. & w. selIgnan & Co.
and J. Pierpont Morgan & Co. are men,
toned as being willing to do the bust
ness.
If the United States minister brings
the negotiations to a successful issue
and United States bankers soothe Eng
land and Germany with some real mon
ey we can all feel another thrill of pa
triotic pride. We are good and infuen-
tial people.

rangement was perfectly satisfactory
to the applicant, and pretty soon he
was sent out to deliver a load of coal.
Instead of taking it to it's proper desti-
nation, he drove to his own home and
dumped it into his cellar. Then he took
the wagon back to the yards, handed
over the price of the coal to the aston
ished dealer and made a clean breast
of the whole affair. well, that beats
anything ever heard Of" said the coal
man; and so great was his admiration
for the new drivers nerve that he let
him get away with the trick.

When I left Salt Lake City a few
days ago T was Democrat and
Gentle, Mr.. ]. w. Houston tells the
Washington reporters, "but if I were
to stay on East little longer I might
return a republican and Mormon. I
have lived in Utah since 1889, and have
always been opposed to Reed smoot
politically. At the same time I know
him well and know he is gentleman,
a man of excellent ability of the high
est morality, and the husband Of one
wife. How could a man be rejected
solely for his religious belief, or because
of the fact that he holds high office
in a. certain church? Such attacks as
have been made on Mr.. Smoot only
make his people stick to him the closer,
and by that mean the whole people of
Utah, irrespective Of religious creed or
sectarian utilization"
