Chief of Palace of Electricity St Louis
Electric heating is now used very extern
sively. A great number of factories now
employ electric soldering irons and heating
irons They find it economical inasmuch
as the person pressing out hats or cloth does
not have to stop every few minutes to get a
hot iron from stove or heater. The cleo
trio iron IS always hot and always ready for
use, and the operators efficiency is greatly
increased by her having an electrically
heated device rather than one heated by
other means.
LAS to the use of electrical heating APP
paratus in the household. it is safe to say
that it is constantly encroaching upon the
more primitive methods. Electrical heat
ing and electrical cooking are far superior
to any other in the matter of convenience.
Wherever water must be heated it can be
heated as economically by the electrical
apparatus as by gas or coal, and such
cooking and heating can be more easily
done than by any other means.
"A very important thing about cooking
and heating by electricity, continued Pro-
fessor Goldsborough, sis that 1t is much
more healthy than cooking or heating by
coal or gas. Electricity makes less dirt
and the apparatus can be quickly and read
lily cleaned. Again, you can heat any de-
sired vessel without heating up the rest
of your surroundings. You can make cof-
fee without bringing the cook and the room
to a high tempera ture. you must do IL
you would heat a smaller quantity of water
by coal, wood or gas. BY the electrical
apparatus all the heat is kept inside the
coffee pot and the cook and the room are
at comfortable temperature You may
see this cooking going on in the building.
We have here utensils for the entire range
of cooking, and they are thoroughly sue
cessful commercially
Trying to Educate the People.
IT would like to say" remarked Professor
Goldsborough, that the exhibits of the
palace of electricity have been designed
especially for the general public rather
than for the electrical engineer This eX-
position is educational and we are trying
to show the people as much as possible
about the new things in the electricity of
today. We have here complete arc lighting
systems, so displayed that the layman can
see just how his city plznt is operated and
handled. He can, if he will, have all the
details explained by calling upon the at
tendants in charge of the exhibit.

The slow Night is stealing in from the west.
Unfolding the wood in her sable arm
And trailing her heavy train over earth,s hreast
TIL she ills my soul with her weird, dark charm
As If from Presence sornber and grim,
The hills and the valleys seem stealing away;

II think it safe to say replied the cleo

the same safety and speed as the steam
railroads, and that without the aid of

yond those of any of our university labora-
tories. Indeed, a group of eight students
could be continuously occupied there for
more than two years, studying the be-
havior and characteristics of electrical ma
chimes, and not exhaust its resources. 1t Is
so with many other features. They are
made for the public and the attendants arc
ready to answer why and wherefore every
thing is, so that the visitor may carry away

is not apparent on the surface"
Healing Diseases by Electricity.
The use of electricity in curing disease is
well shown in the electricity building. Mr..
Goldsborough tells me that startling prog
ress has been made in this field. He has
exhibits of the electric light bath, and II is,
l believe. possible for a person who feels
under the weather to take one here in the
full view of the public. In the same way
various electric brushes are shown and X
ray instruments of different kinds.
One of the most interesting features OF
the Palace of Electricity is electrical
apparatus by which the deaf are made to
hear Glasses of deaf mutes come here
and are thus taught to speak, and through
this apparatus their education can be car
ried on. Indeed, 1t Is believed that II will
soon be in general use throughout the
United States. and that 1t will do much 10
better the condition of so-called deaf
and dumb.
Other New Things.
But cannot even mention the number Of
new things In electricity which are shown
here. There is much new in electric light
ing. including a factory where incandescent
lamps are made. The complete process of
manufacture is shown, the factory having
an output of more than one thousand lamps
per day.
And then there are electric locomotives
which claim a regular speed of more than
one hundred miles an hour; and telegraph
instruments upon which can be sent from
one to two thousand words a minute. There
are other Instruments for sending pictures
and handwriting by telegraph. and there
are also telephones and monographs COM
bined by which one can have recorded on
a wax cylinder the messages sent him when
he is away. There are electric motors and
generators, some of the motors so small
they are just fit to run a sewing machine,
and some generators so large that they do
the work of ten thousand horses. There are
all kinds of storage batteries, some for use
in country houses and others adapted TO
automobiles. There are automobiles rom
different parts of the United States and
from the several countries of Europe. You
can ride about the grounds In automobiles,
and there is an automobile service to and
from the hotels. In short, there are all
sorts of things here moved by electricity.
and in every branch there are many new
inventions. FRANK G. CARPENTER.

The Wireless Telegraph.

"How about the wireless telegraph?
.'That is different proposition" said the
chief of the electricity palace. Half a
dozen systems of wireless telegraphs are
now being used. There are several operated
in the United States, and Great Britain is
spending large sum of money every year
to equip its battle ships with them. Our
government is also experimenting with the
different systems, and wireless telegraphy
is now used by the public on very extern
sive scale. 1t is used far more than the
people realize in communications between
stations on land and upon sea. There are
at the present time two well-organiZed and
strong companies carrying on the wireless
telegraph business in the United States. The
De Forest Wireless Telegraph Company has
here at the exposition, in addition to two
finely equipped stations inside the electric
ity building, two towers, each of which is
over two hundred and fifty feet high. From
these towers messages can be simulta-
neously sent out to two different points
and before the closing of the fair they will
transmit messages far as Kansas City
and Chica go"
