LIGHTNING ROD INDICATED
Experiments Of Sir Oliver Lodge Prove
That Copper Conductors Attract
the Destructive Bolts.

Unless some inventive genius comes
forward with a method by which a wei
string may be made to dc service as q
lightning rod the demonstrators recent
ly given by Sir Oliver Lodge before the
London Institute Of Architects may
eventually lead to the restoration OF
the highly profitable times Of the lightn-
ing rod agent. His demonstrations go
to show that this gentleman OF smooth
language was far from being mistaken
in his statements that his copper tipped
rods would draw the electric bolts from
their purse Of destruction. The trou-
BILE was that they were too good. In his
experiments he used three different sub
stances as conductors-c0pper, iron and
q wet string. While copper was the most
intense and rapid conductor. 1t produced
q sharp crack at the fash and showed
by the intensity Of its action that it was
likely to set up a side flash, which in
protected buildings has been the origin
Of most Of the lightning accidents which
have resulted In the loss of faith on the
part of the people in the v%eracity of the
much maligned lightning rod man. Iron
took the bolt with less noise and the wet
string with hardly any, yet the latter was
efficient in protecting the two other con-
ductors. Wet string is, of course, impos-
sible in practice. but Sir Oliver main
tanned that iron was quite as efficient
a conductor as copper and far more safe,
in SO far as 1t did away with the side flash.
His conclusion was the trial showed that
copper as a lightning conductor should
be dismissed with costs. Should 1t be
possible to convince the American house,
holders of the correctness OF his views,
the practical outcome of the demonstra-
ton may be the revival Of the lightning
rod industry, with iron a. q substitute
for copper.
