Three Kinds of LiEhtninE.

The Etruscans Of old believed that
there were three kinds Of lightning
one incapable OF doing any injury. an
other more misehievous in its character
and consequently only to be issued with
the consent of a quorum Of twelve
gods. and third carrying mischief in
its train and for which a regular de-
cree was required from the highest di-
whites In the Etruscan skies. Curl
ously enough, modern scientific men
agree with the view that there are
three kinds Of lightning. but their vari-
cites differ from the Etruscans. The
nrst Is known as forked lightning and
runs In zlgzag lines. the second as sheet
lightning. because 1t is seen in a body,
and the third as globe lightning. as il
sometimes runs in the shape Of a ball.
The latter variety is rather slow in

COST OF LIGHTING.
Expenditure for Electricity and Gas
Com D1red.

Louis b Marks. president Of the Illuminating
Engineering Society, delivered his inaugural ad-
dress last evening at meeting Of the organization
held at the Hotel Astor. He discussed the scope
OF work of the society (Which has been formed only
within & few months) and It's relations other
scientific bodies but devoted himself mainly 70 the
advances which have recently been made IN light
ing These include the invention of several
types OF incandescent and arc lamps. the mantle
gas burner. the application OF draught 70 oil lamps
and the acetylene flame.
The amount OF light and especially Of electric
light used IN the United States he said has
grown by leaps and bounds. The consumption Of
gas for Illuminating purposes has also largely in
creased the introduction Of the mantle burner hav-
ing given great stimulus TO the gas lighting in
dustry. The place of the acetylene light has been
firmly established and the extended introduction
of acetyene plants IN the last few years is worthy
OF special note"
An interesting feature OF the address was es-
innate Of the sums Of money spent annually in the
United States for the principal modes OF illumina-
ton. Here Mr.. Marks's figures:
Electric light between $780, 100000 and $40 900 900
Coal and water gas between Ss5o0oo00 and $40 COO 600
Acetylene. between $4,000. 600 and 100000
Oh. $0oO0o000
According 10 United States census returns, the
income derived by central stations from current
sold for lighting IN 1902 was s7O18S1E The speaker
then thought Il necessary 10 add 81 600 coo for the
cost of lighting with private plants A census
bulletin put the value OF coal and water gas man
ufactured in 1900 $50 49, So The report does not

KINGS BODY IN STATE.
Great Crorods Pay Honor to Den
marks Late Ruler.

Copenhagen. Feb. 18.-Ths body of King
Christian les in state tonight in the slotskirke.
On the coffin are the royal insignia. the crown
and the sceptre and the purple robe. There was
to-day never ceasing stream OF black CARRIED
crowds, representing all classes In Denmark,
waiting IN line for mile outside the church
TO pass the coffin to pay the last tribute to the
dead sovereign.
The coffin lies on a white oatafaIque at the
head OF which. turned toward the Grape hung
altar, reposes the crown Of Denmark, the Jewels
OF which entwined with roses. A purple
mantle embroidered with crowns and edged with
ermine forms pail. 1t is drawn back TO show
the white cross Of Danneborg and the national
flag covering the coffin. At the foot Of the coffin
are the sword OF state and the sceptre, sur
rounded by some fifty silver wreaths. Facing
the coffin head stand seven high naval and mil
itary officers. with black wands. and six others
with hslberds hung with crepe guard the dead
monarch on either side. At the base Of the plat
form stands one of the Kings personal ad1u-
tants, beside the great silver lions which have
been used at anointrnents and funerals Of Danish
kings since 1870
Almost the entire foreground Of the chapel is
carpeted with wreaths and floral pieces, and the
walls are lined with palms and other tributes
which are said 10 number two thousand At
each corner Of the catafalque are massive silver
candelabra,
The removal Of the body from the Arnalienborg
Palace at o'clock this morning guarded
with the greatest secrecy, the late Kings wish
having been to avoid all ceremony. Even the
sentries outside the palace were as ignorant con-
corning the arrangements as the patient knot Of
people who had waited through the bitter cold
night to catch the first glimpse Of the coffin Of
their King. AS the clock rang out the hour from
the Crown Princes palace, the old wooden gates
of Amalenborg were opened and the guards
turned out, while the hearse, drawn by two
horses with plain black trapp1ngs, crossed the
square. followed by Princess and Prince Wa!de-
mar and Crown Prince Christian. and their
suites, all on foot The procession took the less
frequented routes and passed down narrow
streets. but was swelled by workmen who, on
their way to their daily toll turned aside and.
barehee ded. followed the procession until the
Christianborg Church was reached
