film a small detection was observed
thus indicating the presence Of a cur
rent Of electricity. He also states
that when the film was at rest there
was no detection; also, upon reversinl
the direction Of the motion Of the
film. the detection of the galvanomet.
ter was reversed.
Believing that the confirmation o!
such direct conversion Of the electro.
magnetic waves of light into elec.
tricity was Of fundamental importance
DR.. Davis constructed a more sensi.
tive apparatus than that of Bartoli. de
signed upon a somewhat different plan
The method employed was to place 3
thin film Of silver on a glass plate OF
disk "a in Figs H.. I'D, which was
so thin as to be translucent Thf
ends of this film were connected by
wires wv w running through a hol.
low steel axle OBJ to a very sensitive
galyanometer.
The disk carrying the film was n n
set in motion, making approximately
200 revolutions a second. and sunlight
concentrated upon the film by means
Of a powerful lens tXD.
In the first experiments performed
some slight reflections Of the galyan
ometer were noticed. but IN later trials
when greater care was taken 10 avoid
all extraneous causes OF disturbance
no DETECTION could be obtained on the
galyanometer. no matter whether the
film was revolving rapidly or was en-.
iirely al rest.
II is my opinion. however. says DR..
Davis. in view Of my experiments with
the more sensitive instruments nov
at the disposal Of physicists. and in
view Of Bartoli's single experiment
in 1881. that the effect he observed
was in all probability due to outside
electrical disturbances. That light
nav be converted into electricity Is
no doubt a possibility. but theory
seems TO indicate that II any effect e.
obtained it is probably too small to he
measured by any instrument noH
known 10 science.

LIGHT AND ELECTRICITY.
Can the Former Be Converted Into
Into the Latter-American Scien-
fist Takes Issue with italian.

What is light? This has been the
of the philosophers Of every age.
Modern research brings us one step
nearer the solution of the problem by
showing this cause to be closely con
nected with one of the fundamental
questions OF recent years, What is
electricity"
An answer to the first OF these
questions is ventured by the modern
electronic theory of the constitution
Of matter On this view all sub
stances contain within their atoms
number of exceedingly small aggrega-
tions, each carrying a negative charge.
Suppose, explains Dr. Bergen Davis,
of Columbia university in the New
York Times, the circle in Fig | to
represent an atom, the dots within to
represent these small charged cen
ters, the electrons, and the shaded
portion sufficient positive electricity
to make the atom electrically neutral
Any given number being present
these electrcns will occupy certain
definite positions. with regard TO one
another, within tie atom. III, now.
some outside force displaces one Of
these electrons from It's position Of
equilibrium, the force within the
atom tending to pull il back to its
original place will cause it to vibrate,
and this vibrating charge will be the
origin of ether disturbances. The
oscillations succeed one another with
extreme rapidly, and SO we have an
electromagnetic disturbance Of short
wave length which affects our senges
with the sensation Of light
Knowing, then that light is due to
electrical oscillations, the question
naturally arose as to whether or not
it would be possible to convert sun
light directly into electricity. To this
interesting and valuable subject of in
vestigation Bartoll, al Italian physi-
cast, gave some attention In 1881 he
performed an experiment with this
as the object and claimed success.
He arranged a conducting film OF sill
yer so that il could be moved with
very great velocity, the ends of the
film being connected with a galyan-
ometer The film was then set in mo-
ton while bright ray of sunlight fell
upon it,
Bartoli claims that when light was
thus allowed to fall on the moving

SLUGGISH MARKET

New York, October 17.--Currents in

All persons owning or intending to keep
any animal of the Dog or Canine species
should come forward on or before
JUNE TWENTY-FIVE, 1906.
and take out license for the same from the
Auditor. After the Both of June all persons
owning or harboring Dogs without the re-
quired license are subject to fine as the laws
on the subject require Of 50 or 50.
Complaint has been frequently made that
many persons fail to take out their license,
and that others pay on one or two Dogs when
owning and harboring more, or who send such
Dogs away during the summer months and
bring them back in the fall.
Attention has been called TO this evasion
Of the law, and policemen will report all such
cases, and fines can be imposed upon those
who fail to take out licenses after trial in the
Police Court.
The police officers will be required to re-
port all violations of this law.
