 ii, ,SO00 0s1-an increase of nearly 90 per.

 us at the beginning of the century
 which was equivalent to the muscles of 11S, 900, 900 men.
 Compared with this enormous force,
 how insignificant was the number of
 employees engaged in all our factories,

 children. That is, more than nineteen twentieths of the work was done by these instruments of iron and steel, and

| Justice Brewer of the United States Supreme Court continues to say good and timely things that appeal to all who uphold law and order, and this eminent Yale man whose admirable course of lectures in this city few months ago
 so many heard with profit and pleasure,
 has furnished a new theme for national |discussion in his address delivered re- gently before the Iowa State Bar Asso- ciation. Justice Brewer delivered few remarks which wild agitators, anarch- ists and others do not relish. He spoke in part regarding the outcry in some quarters against the use of injunction by the courts and on this point said:
 I "Unless the law is to place itself out
 of harmony with the advancing eivili- zation, the right to prevent wrong should have an enlarged rather than a restricted scope. The cry of govern
 ment by injunction, wilt eventually die out, and 1t will be felt by all that the
 power is exercised only when necessity arises and when equity and justice de- Emand."' 4.t~- @@srar
 | Any thinking man can conceive readi- l ly of a crisis in which the timely use of an injunction. would prevent great
 wrongs being done, wrongs either to the individual or to society. The courts
 may yet be safely trusted to use the weapon known as the injunction, with
 wisdom and for the best interests of the public. When courts misuse the weapon there is a remedy that can be applied.

4s- ''N'' RAYS EMITTED BY THE SUN. It has been found lately that most of the artificial sources Of light emit radi- ations capable of traversing metals and a number of other bodies opaque to
 light; that is to say, radiations affecting the eye as light. These rays, which are distinguished by the name of "n, en- nance the phosphorescenee of phos-l phoreseent substances, and M. Blondlet,
 the well-know sciestist has employed
 this fact ,in trying whether such rays
 are omitted by the sun.
 To this end he placed a tube of phos-
 l phorescent material-for example, sulp-
 hide of calciunl-behind an oaken panel
 or shutter closing a window exposed to
 the sun, and keeping the chamber dark.
 If now plate of lead, or even the hand, be interposed between the shutter and the tube the phospho diminishes
 and when the plate IS withdrawn it in- creases. The experiment is so simple
 that many can repeat it. The panel of oak had a thickness of fifteen milli- meters. The phosphorescence is rather feeble at first, and sheet of blackpaper may be held as a background to the tube. Plates of aluminium and card-
 board between the shutter and the tube
 do not prevent the phenomenon. The ''n rays from the sun can be concentrated by a lens of quartz. They are reflected by polished glass and diffused by ground glass. Like the Tn" Trays from a Crookes tube or a fane. those of the sun act on a small spark and a tiny flame so as to iscrase their brightness, but M. Giondlot has not ob-
 tained any photographic effect from these rays.I4ondon Globe.

he was elected representative from

constitution he cannot legally hold

friends who were supposed to know
assured him that he conld hold both
offices all right. He is now in a

COMING BUILDING MATERIAL

At Waterloo may be seen in opera
ton an enterprise-a factory making
cement blocks for building material
and the blocks cannot be turned out
fast enough to begin to supply the
demand. The blocks are made in a
machine of any desired form, are
cheaper than brick. cost less to lay up
and in appearance rival the finest Bed
ford stone work. The beauty of it is
any town can have such factory and
it can be located any place to manu-
facture its own building material.
The dozen or more new factories at
Waterloo are all being built of these
cement blocks. This process bids fair
to supplant wood, brick and stone for
building purposes. Rockford Register.
