New system Of Electric Heating.

new Sy9Com OF EleCCr1C 0eBtlu8s
A new system Of electric heat is
upon the market, says the Scientific
American. It consists of an electric
heater and blower. The motor is OF
the standard fan type, and Is secured
to q conical metal case. There is an
intake for air at the back. The heater
consists of clay tubes wound with fine
German silver wire and covered with
an insulating coat of enamel. The
tubes are arranged radially and the
fan and the heater are both closed in
by a metallic casing. The heater can
draw air from without the room or
car, or in cold weather can operate
using the air in the room or car. Two
Of these heaters will, it is said, heat
a 40-foot car to the proper tempera-
ture. b In thc ordinary system some of
the persons in the cars are uncomfort-
ably warm, while others are cold, but
with the fan distribution the heat is
positively distributed. The fan will
also prove useful in school buildings,
on ships and war vessels. >""

When the clever writer and carica-

George Bernard Shaw as dramatic
critic of the London Saturday Review

Himalayas." DR.. and Mrs. Workman,
returned to Srinagar from Java, whore
they had been on a cycling tour, and
lost no time In getting together their
OUTFIT. and engaging coolies for an ex-
nadition to the northern regions OF
Baltistan. The route followed was over
the Deosai plains to Skardu. from
thence to shigar, and BY the Asker
Nullah to Askole, and it speaks we'll
for Mrs. Workman's strength Of nerve
that she was able to cross the rope
bridge over the Braldu river, near
Askole. which is stated to be 27o feet
long. In this expedition they were &C
companied by the well-known Alpine
ruide. Maitias Zurbriggen, who had
Travelled with Sir Martin Conway when
he visited and surveyed part OF this
region in 1892, and therefore had con-
siderable experience, and from what
the authors state regarding him he
fully upheld his reputation as thor
oughly reliable guide. From Askole
the party traversed the Biafo glacier as
far as the Hispar pass and the skoro
La. In the latter region Mrs. and DR..
Workman w der the guidance OF Eur
brigsen made the ascents of peaks re-
spectivsly 1860 and 1880 feet above
sea level. On the arrival OF Mrs. and
DR.. Workman at Shigar they deter
mined to attempt the ascent OF Koser
Gunge. With that object in view they
travelled to Yuno. and established
camp at the elevation of $4,000 feet,
from which position the attack on the
mountain was commenced, but 1t was
not until several days afterward that
the final attempt was made. The usu-
al difficulties with the coolies were ex-
perienced, and on this occasion the
party was only accomps Med by two
of them. BY noon they had reached
an elevation Of 10000 feet; the cold
was intense, with strong wind blow
ing, and Mrs. Workman was obliged to
get Zurbriggen to rub her hands and
pound her feet to restore circulation.
At this juncture one Of the coolies
gave in and had to be unroped and sent
back, after which they struggled on,
gaining foot by foot, until at last the
summit was reached ut an elevation
of 21,O00 feet The party lad been out
from camp thirteen hours, and the
climbing had been most difficult, GER
tainly a most wonderful performance
for a lady. and one Of which Mrs.
Workman may Justly feel proud. In
this expedition she had made ascents
of 1850 and 19,450 feet and q, 900 feet,
this being q world mountaineer record

MORE POOR SERVICES.
Electric Conditions Yesterday Caused
 Bad Behavior of Cars.

Electric Conditions Yesterday Caused
 Bad Behavior of Cars.
 Car service in Montgomery was bad yes- terday.
 At 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon the down and out signal was sent from the power house of the Montgomery Light and Power Company and the cars Of both the Montgomery Street Railway and the Montgomery Traction Company re- fused to do business. Bustling business men, wishing to go to dinner or return to work on the cars ibt their lips. MO- tormen and conductors smiled. They were earning their per diem by telling patrons of the car system that the cars would go sometime in the afternoon
 For an hour this condition continued The necessary repairs having been made at the power house, the cars moved on.
 Superintendent R. J. Chambers, of the Montgomery Light and Power Company said that the electrical conditions of the atmosphere was the cause to which the burning out of the fuse at the plant was due.
 Last night about 10:45 o'clock the cars again stopped and the motor of the Montgomery Street l-1ilway gave up tenn porarily. Fortunately for the patrons of Pains "Pompeii." the Traction Company electrical supply behaved itself and all went well. The atmospheric conditions are ascribed as the cause of the delay last night.
 The cars did not move off until nearly midnight.
