Some remarkable possibilities are
opened up in an article published by
M. CASTOR Cadoux, an eminent chem
list. The writer deals more especially
with the future lighting and heating
arrangements of London, Paris and
Berlin. He says that at no distant flu
ture these three cities will be entirely
lighted and heated by electricity and
gas at an extraordinary low price. The
sea will be used as a motive power to
supply, electricity. The electric cur
rent will be brought long distances
from the electric sea mills on the
coast to the great towns. The loss OF
current en- route will be comparatively
small. Hydraulic power supplied by
the sea and by mountain streams and
lakes will, at small cost, thus supply
London, Paris and Berlin. The days
of coal-gas, however, M. Cadoux
thinks, are by no means over.

A NEW ROUTE TO ESTES PARK

Stage Service Between Loveland
and Estes Park P.O.

May Is the first stage of Johnson
Brothers line, drawn by four good
horses left the Colorado & South
ern railway station on arrival
of the morning train, for accommo-
dation of passengers for Estes Park.
johnson Brothers deserve much
credit for their liberality in equip
ping this stage line. The wagons
are new and cf the latest pattern,
especially designed for the comfort
OF the passenger.
The route of the line is over the
new and splendid county road, along
the Big Thompson river. The canon
of the Big Thompson is unsurpassed
for magnificent scenery, and the end
of the journey is crowned by the
grandest view of them all-Estes
Park-a panorama beyond descrip-
tion.
A splendid eating station is to be
maintained at the halfway house by
Mr.. F. G. Bartholf. Here stop of
thirty minutes will be made for din
ner and change of horses.
Estes Park affords so many at
tractive summer hotels, such fine
fishing and hunting, and alluring
roads for riding and driving. that its
popularity for summer outings is in
creasing from year to year, especially
as the facilities for reaching it are
improved.
The same one way and round trip
rates apply via the Colorado s. South
ern railway and Loveland as have
applied by way of Lyons, and the
indications are that the larger part
of the seasons travel to and from
Estes Park will be through Love-
land.
The Colorado & Southern railway
has issued nicely illustrated publf-
cation, descriptive of Estes Park and
its tourist accommodations.

that everything would be done to

Thirteen councils in New Jer.
